This year I discovered that I (mostly) really enjoy the genre that I think is described as “thriller.” Which I’ve always confused with horror (and will never even try). But this has turned out to be more like mysteries that keep you on your toes (like The Maid and Wrong Place, Wrong Time). That’s been fun for me, along with the permission to swiftly exit anything that appears to be too dark to protect my own emotions.
Also: have you read the memoir Save Me the Plums? Unexpectedly gripping and delightful and about food magazine publishing - I think you might like it. ❤️

I think 99% of the "rah rah" motivation non fiction books out there fit your description of "1000 Hours"
