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.

I also love the Wayfarer Series by Becky Chambers. They take me on a little adventure too!!

Other ones may be Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree, The House on the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune. Wholesome reads IMO
