Work has been a bit much lately, so I looked for inspiration to my literary equivalents, which I have to say, wasn't very helpful but was enjoyable. Maybe there's a reason most books relating to work in the 21st century are self-help books!

Definitely watch @themidnightreader's brilliant review of The Love Hypothesis which is in the form of a Q&A with her science post-doc husband youtube.com/watch?v=hcqSbanEwpw. I would call it spoiler free i.e. the romantic pairing is probably evident from the blurb.
