I didn't realize when I put this book on hold that it was a cookbook. The author gives a brief overview of the Scandinavian concept of hygge - loosely translated to "coziness." Then the book is divided into a few categories - Starting the Day, Caring for Yourself, Staying In, Easy Gatherings and Holidays, and Getting Out. All of these chapters give an overview of how you can add hygge to each of these areas and then have a collection of recipes. I liked how the book was laid out and there were a lot of recipes and ideas in each chapter. There weren't a lot of recipes I want to try, but I still think it's a unique hygge cookbook.
