This is such a cozy set of stories. I was immediately drawn into the way Lily King writes (this is my first time reading her) - it's simple, but illustrative and emotionally grounded. I felt like I could relate so strongly to certain moments in each story, even if the character wasn't that similar to me. I especially loved Creature, Five Tuesdays in Winter, and When in the Dordogne. I picked this up on an impulse after seeing a booktuber talk about it, and immediately put Writers & Lovers on hold after finishing it. I can definitely see Lily King becoming a new favorite author of mine.
