Review at a glance: ★★★★☆
January is a time we stage-manage our lives. We script instincts, recast foibles, project-manage gluttony. In these first bleary moments, the resolve is to rewrite: this year, instead of worrying about dying alone from an ice-cream-induced heart attack, I’ll be champion of the world, top the charts, swim in the pool my side hustle built. Optimism abound. Things are on the up.
