Picture this at your next book club gathering: powdered sugar everywhere, someone yelling “whoa!” at a peanut butter-bacon cocktail, or a copy of Jenny Lawson’s “Furiously Happy” open in someone’s lap while they’re cackling so hard their drink goes up their nose.

Because this November, we’re doubling down on our theme of staying positive in the face of chaos, with a gathering that proves laughter really

If you ask the Danes the secret to happiness, they’ll probably mention hygge long before they talk about money or ambition. Hygge isn’t just a Danish word you see on Pinterest in the fall—it’s a feeling, a way of making ordinary moments comforting and special.
