| Reviews | "In breezy chapters complemented by charming illustrations, Weir evangelizes on the joys of quotidian pleasures such as warm feet, warm fires and, obviously, tea. . . . Cosy might be British, but warm, fuzzy feelings are universal. . . . Good for overworked and over-socialized brains." -- The Washington Post "The American market has been inundated with bossy little books in which other countries tell us how to behave. But I'm an Anglophile, and I was drawn to this one. I particularly enjoyed the chapter 'Cosy and Kind,' where Weir indirectly lays out the connection between duty and love." -- The New York Times, In breezy chapters complemented by charming illustrations, Weir evangelizes on the joys of quotidian pleasures such as warm feet, warm fires and, obviously, tea. . . . Cosy might be British, but warm, fuzzy feelings are universal. . . . Good for overworked and over-socialized brains. |
