a bunch of poets and artists lived in shacks at the mouth of the skagit river in the 70s and 80s, this book gives a good synopsis of the creative activities ongoing there and the struggles to eke out a survival living in abandoned fishing cabins and roughin it. \i highly recommend the poetry of Robert Sund

even if you dont like all the shit he says about abandoning money, the way he writes about very simple things in nature in such a beautiful way is very inspiring and will make you appreciate even the most mundane scenery.

Also hatchet by Gary Paulsen, great read for kids

I was doing landscaping at a graveyard last summer. My company was really chill, so I had plenty of time to read. I read a lot of Lovecraft tales to fit the mood. I also finally got around to reading No Longer Human, great read, highly recommended.
