If that even makes sense. Perhaps I’m wishing for a book that doesn’t or cannot exist. I want to read something that is relaxing while stimulating and satisfying curiosity. I dont want something juvenile. It’s ok if it’s deep and thought provoking, but doesn’t have to be. It should not have conflict.
When I imagine such a book, I think of beautiful descriptions of a forest and the things that live there. The weather. The scenery.
I just had the thought that what Im describing is poetry, but poetry is something which I’ve struggled to enjoy.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.
It might be my admittedly limited genre of reading, but the first long earth book does this for me. Most of the adventure is just stepping through hundred of varying types of earth, most unpopulated, and exploring to see what is out there.
There’s more to the book than that, but those are my favorite sections.
It’s written by Pratchett and Baxter and although not without its faults, the first one is still a fun read for me.
