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!)

    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.

      It took me a lot longer than I liked to get used to it, and I grew frustrated a lot. This manga does have an anime adaptation, tho.

        Okay so sounds like it takes practice! And that is awesome, but would love to also be able to read manga so I could take it with me to places and just sit and read. Great excuse to stay outside!
