ITT we post the comfiest ever books
ITT: post the absolute comfiest books you can think of, fiction, nonfiction or otherwise. Only 10/10 comfy levels allowed.
Picrel is about a young widow in the late 20s-early 30s who took her children boating up and down the coast of British Columbia every summer. They meet loggers, pioneers, homesteaders, bears, cougars, deer, orcas – you name it. There are several stories in which they get themselves into quite a bit of danger too, and some very slice of life anecdotes too like where they're having breakfast or socializing with newfound friends for example. There's also quite a bit of reflections on the First Nations, even to the point of reverence. In one chapter they're exploring an abandoned native village (the natives would abandon and destroy their villages on the water and move inland for the summer) when they find an old Indian skeleton buried under a cliff on the beach, which they figure must be very old because the natives' tradition has been to bury their deceased in boxes in trees for centuries now. In another chapter their boat's engine dies when they're in the middle of nowhere. This book really exemplifies the strength and masculine resilience of the writer of the book, as well as her nurturing of her children and her conscientiousness. It's nothing short of a 10/10 comfy book.
