Winterlust: Finding Beauty in the Fiercest Season by Bernd Brunner

informative reflective slow-paced

3.0

I bought this book in the hope that it would help me (a person who does NOT like winter) romanticize the season and come to love it and look forward to it and basically cure my seasonal depression. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it didn't do that, and I found myself relating more deeply to the occasional negative passages about winter than the rest of the book. Three stars because I'm fair enough to realize it couldn't live up to my high expectations, and because it was interesting and educational, but I also found it pretty repetitive and hard to focus on at times.
