This is a book that I didn't expect to make me think about my life as much as it did! I am always rushing around to get somewhere and stressed. This book showed me the importance of slowing down and finding happiness in simple things versus stressing out to find things that I think will make me happy.

Pottering is a book that really examines what it means to potter and the benefits of pottering. It also encourages you to potter in ways you might not have thought of before. It's a kind of celebration of resourcefulness and the stepping away from perfectionism.

I really enjoyed this book. It was quaint, warm and a quick read. Perfect things to have on a table and dip in and out of, while you're pottering I suppose. I especially appreciated the distinction between pottering and procrastination, and how to avoid the latter.

If this sounds like a book for you, it probably is!
