Cosy

The British Art of Comfort

By: Laura Weir

Narrated by: Michelle Ford

The Danes have hygge. The Swedes have lagom. Now, Laura Weir, a beloved lifestyle journalist and editor-in-chief of London Evening Standard’s weekly ES magazine, introduces American readers to the Brits’ best-kept secret—coziness—an indulgent, luxurious, yet unfussy way of creating comfort and joy.

Cosy is “the slacker’s guide to staying at home, an antidote to peak frazzle.” With trademark Anglo cheekiness, Laura Weir perfectly captures the British essence of cosy. She celebrates socks, warms to the joys of toasty open fires, and extols the virtues of a quiet walk, ultimately enticing us all to create the British magic of cosy in our everyday lives.

With interviews with British lifestyle experts, including Melissa Hemsley, Sophie Dahl, and Dolly Alderton, Cosy is a perfect reminder to slow down, have a cuppa, and settle in when life pushes you into overdrive.

Beautiful!

If you love cozy this is the book for you! Funny and simply inspiring! Full of little ways to embrace cozy daily.

Perfect cozy read

I absolutely loved this book and the narration as I drive back and forth in my busy car to my busy job. It filled me with wonderful, comforting visions of tea, books, blankets, and comfy clothes. This is a love letter to coziness. I would highly recommend!!

Not cosy

Could’ve left the politics and vulgarity out for a truly cosy listen. It was disappointing.
