I fell in love with A Psalm for the Wild-Built the moment I started reading it. It was a quick read that managed to pack so much personality into less than 150 pages, and the coziness of the story is unmatched.

An excellent story dedicated to the pleasure of just existing without purpose, a beautiful reminder that one doesn't need to have a purpose to live a life that means something to them.
