What are you currently reading? And bonus points if you can somehow find a connection to simple living, even if it is not about simple living.

I’ll start: I’m currently reading The Arabian Nights by Sir Richard Burton and… well it is grim but I love the simplicity of the short stories. I can pick the book, read a page or two inbetween chores while relaxing, and put the book back down.

(Sorry mod if this does not fit the community, I’ll delete if it doesn’t!)

    [insert joke about collecting your smut from public domain works. Sir Richard Burton was a very horny weirdo]

    I’m currently rereading my copies of the Natsume’s Book of Friends manga series. Very happy nice time reading.

      That was written on the preface text as well and… did not exaggerate lol.

      Oh that sounds like a chill read! Wish I could get into manga, but my brains just refuse to comply when it comes to reading panes right to left. Maybe it’s just lack of practice.
