by Shion Miura. It's free for Prime members to read. I'm only about 20% into it, but it's about an 18 year-old in Japan, from Yokohama, who gets sent by his parents to a small village in the mountain forest to work in forestry for his first job. He's upset at first and wants to go home, but the laid-back lifestyle is beginning to be attractive to him. It makes me want to go live up in the mountains away from everything. It's very appealing, especially with the way things are today.
