I felt like [Whale Fall](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/213380608) was like this. Things happened, but the setting is very isolated and there are a lot of tangential tidbits that are super interesting but don’t really move the plot forward (not a bad thing! I really loved the book!). The audiobook was absolutely perfect, so good to listen to, but it was kinda just a slice-of-life book.
