it turns out i am an absolute sucker for practical guides that have cool-toned illustrations in them! i was wondering what felt so familiar about REST EASY‘s illustrations (on the right) and suddenly it clicked — NO HARD FEELINGS (on the left, which i‘ve used repeatedly for work) has a similar style!

Tea_and_Starstuff That's such an interesting compare/contrast there. Very different genre, but that's also what I Ioved so much about Salt Fat Acid Heat 3mo
jennirl @Tea_and_Starstuff i actually feel like they have a lot in common in that they are both super practical guides about nebulous but important subjects, so weirdly a great pairing even aside from the illustrations 3mo
Tea_and_Starstuff Will have to add it to my TBR then! 3mo
