playlist｜four books open, but nobody's reading｜4h

Four books, four ducks, one long afternoon. Every book is open. None of them is getting anywhere. It has been like this for a while. Four hours of bright, easygoing cafe jazz for reading, or for holding a book and not reading it — piano, brushed drums, light upright bass and a clarinet that answers now and then. Good for reading, studying, working, journaling, or sitting with people who are also not talking. Nothing here is asking you to finish the chapter. Today, "still holding it open" is enough. 🎵 Timestamps: 0:00 everyone found a seat 2:37 page one, eventually 5:38 the light is right here 8:11 nobody's in a hurry 11:19 three pages in 14:16 read that part twice 16:55 lost the thread 19:51 still holding it open 23:16 a leaf holds my place 26:25 we didn't talk once 28:48 that was enough 31:28 same books tomorrow 34:23 playlist repeats 🎨 About waddle. waddle. is a very small shelf of music kept by one white duck who isn't especially good at anything. Today there are four, sitting in a row with a book each. Three are facing the page. One looked away a while ago and hasn't looked back. Everything you hear here was made for this channel. One small thing to try, if you want: keep your place with whatever is nearest — a leaf, a receipt, your finger. That's the whole exercise. What's one small thing you did today? It counts. ☕ If this kept you company, subscribing helps more than you'd think 🌻 waddling still counts as walking. #jazzplaylist #clarinetjazz #instrumentaljazz #calmmusic #relaxingmusic
