Rejoice017 Archives book lovers: we found the place where everyone will finally leave you alone.

The whole structure is made from oak trees that were cut down to make room for the main house, then dried over time in long, rectangular logs.

Inside, there's also a bed, an armchair, a desk and a wood-burning stove: all the cozy trappings of a book lover's ideal retreat.

It's also in the woods, so cell service is probably pretty bad.

More time for reading.
