Warning: This is definitely not a post about places to pick flowers.

I have a bookshelf with a fancy name for my bathroom books on Goodreads. The name is inspired by what I read on "Dengeki Daisy". One of the main characters said "I'm going to pick [some] flowers", which is like the polite way of telling you're going to the toilet/bathroom. I don't know the actual Japanese conversation, but probably something like お花を摘みに行くo-hana wo tsumi ni iku or お花を摘みに行ってきます o-hana wo tsumi ni ittekimasu. Interestingly, there are more ways to say that politely. 

Ahem. So... some things I learnt from my flower-picking trips. Don't pick a difficult book (like classics and some non-fictions). And pick less thrillers/mysteries. I kind of prefer short and easy books. Used to pick books I think is boring but some proved to be otherwise. Also used to pick thick books but find it tedious to read when I don't like the book. Nowadays, I pick books I'd read during my teenage years.
