Thanks to Faber and Faber, and Netgalley for the ARC!
Having read and thoroughly enjoyed Wintering last year I was really excited to get my hands on Katherine May's new book. Sadly, I was a little disappointed. I found that the book was lacking a narrative. It was split up into 4 different sections - earth, water, fire and air - but I struggled to find the meaning in the book as a whole. Nevertheless, I do still appreciate the topic of find magic in the little things, and did enjoy the reminders and anecdotes of slowing down and finding beauty in the mundane.
