The Prescription You Didn’t Know You Needed That Could Change EVERYTHING

Welcome to Lottie’s Library!
Shelves of books, podcasts, TV shows and movies I recommend.
You’re welcome to click to buy each book from bookshop.org, an online store that orders on your behalf from local, independent bookstores.
I’ll receive an affiliate commission for each book ordered, which will go into an account to be donated to my chosen cause at the end of each year. I do not keep any funds earned through this page for myself or my business.
Every month I spotlight recommendations in my newsletter that you’ll find on the top shelf.
Just scroll down!
Lottie, I just wanted to say thank you so so much for giving me back the joy/pleasure of reading. I used to be a voracious reader but in recent years couldn’t get past the guilt of the time spent on this pastime. With your ‘gentle’ and constant pushes, I’m now back enjoying one of my greatest loves. Thank you!
