Lagom
by Niki Brantmark
The Swedish concept of 'just the right amount,' applied to home, work, food, celebrations and the environment, by a British writer in Sweden. It is a light lifestyle book, attractively produced, and its idea of sufficiency as a value rather than a compromise is worth more than the book suggests.
Read it if…
you want a gentle, Scandinavian framing of enough.
Skip it if…
you want depth; it is a lifestyle gift book.
Three things you will actually use
- Enough is a target, not a failure.
- Balance in small things adds up.
- Sufficiency is sustainable; excess is not.
Do this first
Pick one area, meals, work hours, spending, and ask what 'just enough' would look like.
Our verdict
Light and pleasant.
