Win-win, we say.
1. Eat Happy
We have long since been fans of the Hemsley (as in Hemsley + Hemsley) sisters and their gorgeous, healthy food and cooking, and now Melissa has a brand, spanking new book out, featuring supermarket ingredients, simple methods, and tips and tricks to make no-fuss great food.
Perfect to make sure you eat healthy and happy all week through. We especially love her simple, healthier versions of all our takeaway favourites.

2. Morning, Noon, Night
If you love interiors, food and chic hotels, well, then we think you are going to love the new Morning, Noon, Night book from the people behind the Soho House hotels across the globe.
The 300-page, cloth-bound book invites readers behind the scenes at the Houses– taking you through the day from the second you wake up to the moment you go to bed, with tips on anything from how to make a tasty vegan breakfast and creating the perfect bedroom, with plenty of gorgeous new imagery along the way.

Scandinavia is famous for its distinctive style: homes are pared-back and simple, and form and function are combined to create aesthetically pleasing and practical interiors. Scandinavians are inspired by light, and this book is chock-a-block with gorgeous and inspiring Scandi homes – pretty much enough to make us want to up sticks and move north.
