Links I love

a lifestyle blog for book lovers

Greetings from the polar vortex. Wishing you a weekend full of cozy reads and double digit temperatures (if you’re lucky).

My favorite finds from around the web:

• Tea for you and tea for me: a tea lover’s guide. A complete guide to a dizzying variety of tea and accessories. Perfect for winter.

• Two dying memoirists wrote bestsellers about their final days. Then their spouses fell in love. Wonderful and sad, but mostly wonderful. (For another sweet perspective on this story, Lucy’s twin sister tells it here.)

• There is no such thing a the best recipe. “Other people might hate it, but I know I’ll love it, and that, and only that, is what makes it the best.” I loved this piece, and that’s coming from someone who really loves Cook’s Illustrated.

• 6 ways uniform dressing changed my life. (I’m a fan.)

Favorite instagram:

One last look at the Christmas tree. (Follow me on instagram @annebogel.)
