During times of upheaval and uncertainty, reading can provide solace, comfort, enlightenment and distraction. I'll be sharing some of my favourite reads of late – fiction, non-fiction, poetry, longform journalism and kids' books. Expect some fun, light reading and some more challenging, political texts; Jewish books and non-Jewish books (but if there's a Jewish angle to Northanger Abbey, I'll find it); a bit of high-brow and a bit of low-brow. Join the conversation and share what you've been reading too! (Here is a list of our recs.)
