I read largely science fiction and comics with some non-fiction mixed in. I'm warming up to mystery with Bosch and the Slow Horses books.

Listened to the audiobook in very sporadic bursts. I had never heard of Bob until we saw him on Taskmaster. Now between Last One Laughing and Would I Lie To You we have come to believe he might be the funniest person alive.

I've listened to a few of these Patti Smith memoirs, all read by her. Just Kids was highly focused on her and her relationship with Robert Mapplethorpe and I thought it was fantastic. M Train was largely about her marriage with Fred "Sonic" Smith up to his death. It was less focused and less fantastic. This is largely about the death of her friend Sandy Pearlman. It is even less focused and aimless. Hearing her voice is largely the attraction as the story and observations were the least compelling so far.

I live near the coast of South Carolina which you might not think of as a home of hygge. I did finish it on a rainy day while cuddled up with a dog which seemed appropriate. Later in the day I was running errands downtown. Although I am limiting carbs, I did opt for a pastry just for the spirit of it.
Even outside of Denmark this is not a bad way to think about your approach to life. Take the moments of simple pleasures, of love and laughter where you can find them.
