The School of Life at Waterstones
At The School of Life, we’ve always believed in the therapeutic value of reading. We’ve partnered with Waterstones and Foyles to bring you six all-new School of Life Hubs, located in bookshops around the UK, where you’ll find our most popular books, tools, games and resources in one place.
We’re also hosting special conversation events and workshops in selected Waterstones stores, hosted by our faculty. Keep an eye on our newsletter for more details.
Emotional
The best books put their finger on emotions that we recognise as deeply our own.
Perceptive
One kind of good book leaves us asking: how did the author know that about me?
Cherished
Some books are to be cherished – not so much for what they say, but for the thoughts they help us with.
Reassuring
Books teach courage when we need it the most.
Defiantly odd
Books help us by having an accurately broad grasp of what it means to be normal.
Read at the right time for us
Much of what makes a book ‘good’ is that we are reading it at the right time for us.
