The benefit of Nostr is the long format, over the compacted micro format of Twitter.

A few books I can recommend before I head out with my wife.

1. Time's Arrow, 1991 by Martin Amis.

The story in this book takes place in the reverse. The protagonist is a doctor that is introduced to the reader at old age and he is experiencing a backwards aging every day.

His relationships may start with a painful feeling on his chin, until he meets a lady at a restaurant that he never saw before, experiencing how she removes the pain on his face with a reversed slap.

It has a number of humorous parts in spite of the serious topics. The book opens up a different way of thinking about causality. Everything we do is filled with what we fill ourselves with.

2. The mirror in the mirror, 1984, by Michael Ende.

This book reads like an abstract painting and reaches out with a number of short stories that leaves pause for reflection.

Michael Ende is perhaps more known for his book The Never Ending Story but here he compacts his visual thinking into a series of poetic and dreamlike meditations.
