Thank you so much! For you too ❣️

😬😅

@@luissantiago4768 Well thank you! Hope to see you again 🙂

Yes it is. Sorry, didn't mention it.

@ Isso é tão lindo… do Brasil?

@@RobertAguilar-p1l Não, de Portugal :) mas esta edição está esgotada. Encontrei em 2a mão.

É sempre agradável ver os vídeos da Juliana, independentemente do dia. 😊 Se não houver mais vídeos até ao final do ano, que é uma época onde é normal andarmos mais atarefados, Boas Festas, um Feliz Natal e um Bom Ano Novo para si e para sua família. 2025 será um ano melhor Juliana, beijinhos. 💫

@@Oldvolu Ohhh 😊muito bom saber! Haverá vídeo este fim de semana, por isso ainda terei oportunidade de desejar um Feliz Natal 🌲 (expectativas baixas, pois não é nada de inovador 😅) É sempre muito simpático, e com uma palavra de alento a dar. Bom tê-lo por aqui! Muito obrigada mesmo 💜

Bom, se calhar imparcialidade não foi a palavra mais acertada. Com imparcialidade queria dizer no sentido de o artista ser livre para se expressar como e sobre o que bem entender. Sim, no sentido de o artista não ter que se reger pela mesma bitola que o jornalista também concordo. Também sou da opinião que o artista não tem que, constantemente, fazer do seu trabalho um ato ativista. Se inconscientemente ele se torna, talvez. Porque enquanto pessoa que vive numa comunidade/sociedade, e também é influenciado pelo que o rodeia, lê, vê, ouve, ídolos, e mesmo condicionado pelas suas próprias crenças, valores, opiniões sobre determinado assunto, não sei até que ponto todos estes fatores tornam a criação da arte enviesada já à nascença. E como disse e bem, sendo a avaliação do que é boa ou má arte subjetivo, acredito que aqui entra o que cai no goto de cada um, mas, ressalvo, que esta questão muitas vezes também me parece ficar sequestrada por “questões do momento” e muitos artistas também se tornam “oportunistas”… pode ser uma opinião controversa - não quero dizer que isso seja mau, de todo… mas parece-me que às vezes a busca do “impacto” torna o que é dito arte, cada vez mais bizarro, e a busca da excelência pela performance fica de lado… Claro que, estou a contradizer-me. Se arte é o que cada um considera ser arte, fica ao critério de cada um. Portanto também estou a dar os meus dois cêntimos. A mim parece-me que Camus queria dizer para quem tem aspirações de ser artista, não ter medo de se expressar, de dar assas à sua imaginação, não ter medo das críticas, mas ter uma opinião. Talvez tenha razão no sentido de ele querer dizer que a boa arte seja a que expressa um ponto de vista… sim! Talvez eu pudesse ter feito a reflexão que Camus, tendo passado pela 2ª Guerra Mundial, também ele próprio estava enviesado sobre o que o artista deveria expressar na sua arte. Ele era terminantemente contra o regime nazi, entre muitas outras coisas, portanto suponho que este discurso dele também tem de ser visto dentro do contexto histórico. Claro que nós estamos a passar por um momento turbulento e que fomenta o cariz ativista. Mas se um artista escolher dedicar-se, vamos supor, à beleza por si só, e não enveredar por opinar sobre… também não vejo mal nisso. E, para mim, a liberdade que Camus fala deveria ser essa. Desculpe o tratado 😅

Good to hear! When any book has the theme of the Faust Myth, I think it will be difficult. Now with your comment I became even more curious to see how I'm going to do with this reading!

Muito obrigada 🥰 A escrita de Steven Pressfield é muito acessível, acho que vai gostar! Estou bem, obrigada ☺ Se quiser saber mais um pouquinho sobre a minha ausência nestes meses, pode ver o vídeo anterior a este, com o título "Saying Hi". E você como está? Como devo tratá-lo? Prazer!

@@booksanddoodlesreadsJorge 😅. Eu assisti o vídeo e chegamos até a falar um pouco no Instagram sobre esta fase da vida que com certeza irá passar. Mais uma vez, fico contente por estar de volta.

​@@Oldvolu Ahhh olá Jorge 🤗 Muito obrigada pelo seu apoio❤ é sempre muito simpático! Se vier a ler Gates of Fire, diga-me o que achou 😄

Thank you! When I first bought it I wasn´t sure precisely because of the colour... but it grew on me eheh Memoirs of Hadrian is in fact a great book! Go for it 😉 Now I want to dive in in other works by Marguerite Yourcenar... she seems quite interesting!

Happy to hear it! 😊 Thanks for your kind words ♥

Hiii!! so glad to have you here too 🥰 How are you?

Yes, this book is very interesting, difficult, confusing, relatable... and so on and on! I would say is quite contradicting in it's on way... and as you said, if we do a re-read we are going to take a different meaning. For me it was a wonderful experience. For sure I will came back to it some day ☺ Just one thing... and I'm sorry my ignorance: when you write "Thai is an incredible work of art (...)", what does it mean or what does refers to "Thai"? Thank you!

My apologies, I recently moved to Spain and my phone’s autocorrect deciphering two languages and my sloppy texting gets very confused 😅 It should read “It’s an incredible work of art”

@@MichaelDNelson Oh ok ok! I could have infered that 🤦‍♀

Yes, seems the best assumption! Now remembering some passages in the book, there was some sketchy agreement between Bolero and the UN (if I'm remembering right!) Is interesting how Philip K. Dick leaves you wondering! Thank You 🙏

I have to confess that I was unaware of this concept until I came upon this book. Perhaps I have heard being mentioned here and there but never thought too much about it. And I agree with you, I think it come up to be as we view the situation, or, as we position ourselves in certain situation. But still the term is not really clear in my head 😅

Sobre o paciente inglês eu gostei muito do filme. Foi o meu primeiro contacto com a história. Anatomia de uma queda achei interessante, é um pouco arrastado, mas gostei do final.

Oh thank you! I could have done some research 🤦‍♀️

I still haven't dive in in watching the adaptations, but your comment made really want to! From what you said I'm with really high hopes for the Tarkovskys version!

Trust me you will not be disapointed! from the opening scenes of nature as we are introduced to the character of Kris Kelvin to the final scene that rivals that of 2001 in otherwords unexpected. It certainly made me re evaluate all that we had seen before and question how would I react giving a similar situation. @@booksanddoodlesreads

@@andrewoliver192 Now I'm intrigued and extremly curious! Thank you!

i really enjoyed your analysis of the novel itself, its highly intelligent and we both share the same introspective views on it. Stanislaw made us all to look at ourselves in order to get anywhere near to understanding any intelligent aliens out there whatever form they take. Having an intelligent ocean is interesting considering we as a species are 85% water ourselves which shows our primeordeal origins. I like how the story explores that in order to communicate with a alien out there that its more acceptable if its human in form and as the story explores perhaps someone we onced loved very deeply that played a major part in our lives. Wether you find that a mental pleasure or pain is something only we as individuals can answer and its a fascinating thought. There should be more sci-fi storys like this its not all spaceships, robots and tentacled monsters munching on anyone that gets in the way (ahem er really!)@@booksanddoodlesreads

@@andrewoliver192 Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you understood (beyond my bad english) and identified with my point of view! The part where you said that in this particular novel the form of live being an ocean kinda represents our origins was really interesting! I didn't think of that. And I tend to agree. I think that in truth that wasn't random in Stanislaw architecture of his book. And all of the emotional exploitation of the scientists present in the planet was an interesting way to go about it. As you said! In a way I feel that the ocean was exploiting the human weaknesses, fragilities. I can't say that I read too many sci-fi books, but I can say that in an instant became my favourite genre. I think through them you can think out of your mind box. And Solaris is definitly introspective, and it catches you in between the lines. It's not in your face, you have to do the reflection on your own.

I had seen the movie first also, so I was extremely curious to read the book and it was a wonderful surprise! Of course they have diferences as they should. Because if the movie was an exchange of letters the hole time it would be extremly boring. So I think the dynamic of the movie worked very well! Thank you for the kind words 😊

Well, let's hope not!

I think the director of the film in terms of romance nuance took it up a notch in comparation with the book. What, for my taste, made it much better 🙂

Right... if I had the ability of understanding multiple languages, I would certainly read in the original language. But in this case I read a portuguese translation.

Hi, wonderful to read from you ☺ I adore Dune!! For right now I only have read the first trilogy, but I want to read the rest of the series. And I understand what you mean, the mix between ecology and philosophy are incredible. It envolves you in a kind of aura of deeper thought that you don't even realise. I just think it is fantastic! About your recommendation I'm already on the hunt to buy the book 😀I became extremly curious!

I will certainly try other books by Dosto. "The Idiot" I already read, and it didn't really work for me either. I just have to continue trying!

I'm of the opinion that you should try every genre to see what works for you, and, even, to read a book for yourself even if it has low rating, so in that way you can form your own opinion on it. And also things like the age that you read a certain book, and the circunstances in life in which you are affect your perspective on a reading. So what may not work now, may work in the future, and vice-versa. But for me books are not unanimous. There are cases that what for me is excellent for another person is the worst. I think taste as a lot to do with it.

I've read The Crime and the Punishment when I was only 12. I still think I was too young to read it. My head was full of this novel throughout my teenage days. So what I mean is Dostoyevsky may not be good for those who are not ready.

@@anzinn I agree with you, I think there are books and authors that people should be more parsimonious to when they read. But it also may be that for certain reasons like the style of writing, the characterization of characters, the style of the dialogues, the changes in the plot, etc. are not in synchrony with your personal taste and make you not enjoy a certain book. And I think that's ok. You may understand the significance of the book but, at the same time, noy enjoy the reading experience.

Really?! in russian?! Uau.. that's something else!! 👏 In conversation with a friend and from some of the things I read about Dosto life, he was having to get things publish quickly to pay debts, and he also was extorted, basically, by his publisher... so... I guess we can think that he would have very short deadlines to get things done, so he would have to write quickly. So I don't know if in other circunstances perhaps is style would be more refined... who knows!

@@booksanddoodlesreads I am quite old :)....and I was born in Eastern Bloc ...we were tought Russian at school.... :)

@@smillabutryn7517 Oh I see! Well I find that having the possibility of reading in the original language is the optimal experience. I hope to learn different languages throughout my life so I'm able to do that 🙂

Thank you! Hope you have fun in this corner of TH-cam 🙂

Thank you so much for the kind words, and for the trust in me 🥰 Funny thing, I briefly tried an audiobook but never came to finish it. Not because I didn't like the book, but because of the narrator. I'm the type of person that without any serious experience with audiobooks says they aren't for me. I also think I would distract easily, and would start to think in something else midway throught. It already happens 🙈 But anyway, more and more I'm thinking about giving in to it! About cook books, I like the idea, I have some. But I confess I use much more the searching on the internet and youtube videos. Perhaps is a matter of finding the right one!

Yeahh... I'm really glad to hear it! 🤗 I've been thinking about changing up a bit the sort of content on my channel, but things never seemed to be in line. So hopefully in the upcoming months I'll be able to do so!! The decision I made to program all my readings throughout the year is more like an experiment, because I never have done nothing of the like before. Sooo.... let's see how I do 🙈🙈 I'm very jealous of you for not being a slow reader 😅 And I agree with you, when it comes to classics the flow slows down even more.

Happy New Year!! Well I'm glad to hear it 😅

Ohhh 🥰 You have no idea how happy your comment makes me 💖 Is always unexpected, unfortunately, to receive positive and uplifting comments! Of course I'm a very small channel so I can count the comments I received in one hand (and they have been all positive), but with everything that we see in other channels and other platforms is refreshing! I'm very pleased you enjoy to watch my review videos (for what I gather, review videos aren't the most popular, so thank you!) and that you enjoy all angels 😁I was looking for approval ihih 😂 So glad you liked me tree!! I love christmas and everything surrounding it, so is a joy to decorate the tree.... what I didn't tell you was that I already had my tree up since the beginning of november 🤣🤣

​@@booksanddoodlesreadsit is my pleasure to watch your videos. In spite of many people running vlogs about books and reading, very few make me feel at ease or give me nice vibes. I pay atrention to many things like light, colours, voice of person talking ... i hope that i do not comnent too much 😊 i like your channel and i hope you will keep posting. Please do not change to please "mases". There is enough of that... i hope that more people will find you too because it would make you happy. I smiled seeing your christmas tree. My nephew also asked his mother to decorate x nas tree in the middle of November. I like it 😊😊😊

@@smillabutryn7517 oh no, please do comment!! 😅 I enjoy interacting with you! And it's also a reasurance that my content is being enjoyable, which is the main point! And of course if it's done politly I accept criticism and feedback. When we are children christmas time is more magical, I remember it well! Wishing a very bright christmas to you and your family 💌

I agree! I would prefer if they would have written a totally original script, with original plot, and made a popcorn rom com rather than taking advantage of the name of Jane Austen to make a buck. I'm with you...tragic!

I know right🥰 As the perspectives of american presidency are right now, I just think is such a shame he's not being able to run for president. I think he would be great!

Yes. I agree. He would be a good president.

Again I can't really say that I'm knowledge of the matter surrouding Marquez, I have to read more about it. But, for the few things that I heard I was a bit dissapointed. But, at the same time, I'm kinda leaning on the thought that we should separate creator from creation... Although I think it also depends on what type of behaviour we are talking about... soooo... kinda hard to see right and wrong... at least for me

Ohhh thank you so much! In my more recent videos I'm not using make up, at least not in the eyes, because I had dermatitis, but, I'm definitly a warm tones girl ☺ About the books, I agree with you! I'm definitly of the opinion that just because a book is popular doesn't mean it will work for everyone... of course this is common sense but, still, worth being said! And for quite some time, some of the authors and books that I've mentioned were in my tbr, but, as long time passed and I heard more opinions, my perspective on the stories changed, and my wanting to read them changed as well. So hearing different people talk about it is of great help! That's why I love youtube 😃
