Description
A beautiful, thoughtful, illustrated guide to finding your perfect next read, no matter what life’s throwing at you…
Through turbulent times, stories keep us afloat. Books, particularly, console and guide us, feed our souls and open our eyes to worlds, possibilities and experiences we have never considered before. Many of us have been self-medicating with books for years without identifying the practice as ‘bibliotherapy’. Celebrate the positive impact books can have on our lives with this collection of carefully curated suggestions for each life stage.
Stages include:
• New Beginnings
• First Loves & Great Loves
• Grief & Loss
• Self-Love & Self-Discovery
• Heartbreak
Use this book to identify the right reads for the right time, and to help you find the books that will always matter to you.

I love the concept of prescribing a book! Giving personalised book recommendations is my favourite thing about working with readers and books and the idea of Bibliotherapy builds on that in a really fun and helpful way! The illustrations are gorgeous, the recommended reading is fantastic. As I was reading this I began a whole new spreadsheet to add some of the books that Masters was prescribing straight to my TBR with a note as to when would be best to read. A really nice gift for the avid reader in your life or a wonderful treat to yourself!

Bibliotherapy - as the name implies, this is a fantastic concept. Whoever came up with the idea are genius(es).
This may be one of my top three non-fiction books of 2024 so far, and definitely one of my favourite non-fiction books ever because;
1. This is a great resource to turn to for all changes, milestones, chapters, up and downs in your life when you need advice on what to read.
2. The topics/themes/chapters covered are rich.
3. The recommendations are wonderful. The range is great.
4. The author's prose is gripping. The paragraphs or short essays on the topics or books discussed are informative and fun.
5. The presentation is modern, eye-catching yet not distracting.

I really enjoyed this guide. The illustrations are lovely and it gave me so many books that I want to check out. It really explains how readers use books to escape and feel transported and provides recommendations for many different topics
