Any recommended reading material for User Stories?
Kind of a niche request, I was curious if anyone on this forum has read a book that they felt was solid about User Stories. If this is too niche, software requirements gathering and design would be great. I was thinking about going to my local library and seeing if they had anything related to this. Thanks!

"Are Your Lights On?: How to Figure Out What the Problem Really Is"
by Donald C. Gause; Gerald M. Weinberg
Really really high level and possibly oversimplified, however it's entertaining while still helping you look at problems from different angles.
Especially when the user description of a symptom can sometimes mislead you into either implementing an overly complex solution or simply dismissing it when it can possibly indicate a larger problem.
One of my favorite "stories" in the book involves a slow elevator.
(and yes, I've seen cases where something is dismissed as a minor inconvenience when there really was something wrong underneath)

While I haven't actually read this book, I understand that it's supposed to be decent.
