Little Forest

A bloody refreshing read. It's a rather simple story about finding purpose in life. The premise follows a young lady living on a farm as she cultivates and harvests depending on the seasons. We see her reasons for living on the farm, as well as the daily ins and outs of farming itself, including my personal favorite moments— creating delicious meals out of her crops. Undoubtedly mundane things, sure, but damn is there beauty in life's simple moments. Briefly on the art. If you've read any of Daisuke's other works, you're probably used to it. It's got this sketchy, yet detailed sort of aesthetic. It'sreally quite pretty. A little more sketchy than some of his other series, but pretty nonetheless. Should you read this? Yes.. IF slice of life is a genre you can tolerate. If not, well, this might not be for you.
