What are some good books about day-to-day life in the bronze age?

I'm also interested in learning about the bronze age itself, from the cultures and civilizations, economy, and way of life.

The AskHistorians reading list has several book recommendations for each of the major Bronze Age societies. A search of the subreddit may turn up some threads on daily life, and I've written a few responses that touch on the subject:

There's quite a few good books about daily life in ancient Egypt. I recommend starting with Daily Life in Ancient Egypt: Recreating Lahun by Kasia Szpakowska and The World of Ancient Egypt: A Daily Life Encyclopedia by Peter Lacovara.

Daily Life in Ancient Mesopotamia by Karen Nemet-Nejat is a pretty good overview of life in Babylonia and Assyria.
