Definitely agree how pretty it is her first description of the farm and her journey there. It felt like you were going back in time.

Literally one of the best books ever written amazing

I got lucky this being my very first book by Woolf that I read. After the first 8 or 9 pages I realized I was in the hands of a giant and would have to acquire all of her books. My favourite book by my favourite writer! There's barely a paragraph that isn't golden!

Just finished the book. This is the second book I read of Milan’s after Lightness of Being. He always takes you in a trance and completely submerges you inside the story. I was hoping to see Ludvik reunite with Lucie at the end, just to make it less tragic

_Perfume_ is truly a brilliant work. The way Süskind forces you to make sense of the world through the olfactory, dislodges the often visual preoccupations that novels have. I like to think of it as a minor experiment in prose.

I’ve never read any of his novels. Do you have any recommendations on where to start? This was a really great review, and it was wonderful to hear how much you connected with the book.

I saw this as one person in a prism. All facets of of the self is split into the six characters.

Thanks for the great review ❤

Listened to all your videos while working, very refreshing and relaxing to hear you talk about books i otherwise never would have known exist. Hope you keep doing more and longer videos! Ps. If you rebrand your channel to an ASMR one you'll get tons of views :)

Carlota Grisi was Gauthier's Love as she danced Gisselle

I will check up on that Book..Check out Vicente Fernandez singing Trinidad Romero on TH-cam Video about Mares and Fillys.

I had the book but watched it on TV instead

nice one. the joy division poster compels me to turn you on to this: www.amazon.com/King-Good-Intentions-Andrew-Fredrick/dp/1891241109/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3DDJ7YM7B5BDM&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.gj7Cqw8_2lkiHN0WZKM0g1anuiqcPqmo9nZFGqNPXAmgyKG0khrrfRtTf7YcP2Gpq4IeVQiXuNUmRPMrBzmHVzaEY9EerDClajaEAtIvfrUGjTQ32wtSrz7l_TVHJW-6Wn2RNRmS-wwKbgUdcMEj7TpbUsrE9VvLk9kmmvWOqjs7YCj_SZZQfRgg_7r_jjNShXRbUi4vSjcxpp3L6jEdSTf5I9_88dfkXQMf11Nfx-k.iWeWyR0gh7CsphMYjVoiNFLuO3MO6iuX7gwr8dbs2aE&dib_tag=se&keywords=the+king+of+good+intentions+book&qid=1724166987&sprefix=the+king+of+good+intentions+%2Caps%2C187&sr=8-1

ive read all of hardy as a young man and liked him but as i get much older i find him too depressing to endure but i occasionally enjoy hearing how young ppl such as yourself find him

Openings - Wendell Berry th-cam.com/video/-ewB0WL3bNw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Tsh3NHL_ultzsae0

This is on my list. I have read "Far From The Madding Crowd", which I liked.

Was Hardy an atheist?

Cool vid, love your reviews! Do you have a GoodReads account?

if jude is your favorite book, you need a hug, a warm blanket and a cup of tea

Thanks Imogen. This isn't the sort of book I'd normally read at all, and I confess it sounds like the depressing nature of the story and the plight of Tess would put me off. But I thought that was a very thorough review, and I especially like that you speak about whether or not the mental state of the characters (and their actions) feels "plausible" and whether the writing itself is actually good. I find that this puts me off books even more than the story; if you get halfway through and think, "no way, that character would never do that" or "wow, this prose is really clunky" then it just breaks the mood, so it's good to know Hardy avoids that. Tempted to try it (I really need to broaden my mind beyond science fiction 😆) but suspect it would defeat me 😆Thanks again for taking the time to post

Very nice review but i also have to say you just look sooooopretty <3 T___T your hair is so pretty

I've yet to read Thomas Hardy. This is doing a great job so far convincing me to give his work a try. It's great to see more of your thoughts (always intriguing and insightful).

My favourite story! I am so glad you are talking about it

I’m here for practice my listening and I think this is a good way to learn with it. I like books too ❤ A mí también me encantó ese libro 📖🫂 se convirtió en uno de mis favoritos.

I was going to use this to cheat in my class, but….. 😅

"You can yell against the rich, you miss the courage to give back to the poor the money that the Fortune sent to you, you'll never deserve happiness as long as you possess something, as long as your hate for the bourgeois comes from your enraged need to become bourgeois at their place"

Thanks. I read it years ago, but this made me want to do so again.

Love your channel, I hope you make more videos soon. I’ve been meaning to read Perfume.

I just finished it. Agreed, a masterpiece. I also could not put it down once I got into it.

I finished the waves 30 min ago, i think its my favourite book of all time

Hi! Love your reviews! Do you have a bookstagram account we can follow you on.

I have had the fortune (and wondrous memory) of reading The Waves in a single elongated moment of quiet and solitude. In much the way Woolf distends time-and contracts it to punctuated senses-that moment extends in my mind, ceaseless hours in recollection. The Waves is maybe my favorite book, though maybe more my favorite experience. It felt to me so much the culmination and purpose of stream-of-consciousness text. I've been wondering how to discuss the book myself for my own channel. Your review is a wonderful example of what can be done: a kind of passing rumination on moments and feelings with ambiguity intact. Thank you for not being overly "precise or clean or eloquent"-rather, just enough.

Great review! You should do Our Lady of the Flowers by Jean Genet!

This has been such a nice review, after reading Waves ive gained a strong sense of awareness of the impact this book was going to have on me, I feel like it kind of changed me in a way. You have described this feeling very well, so thank you! :))

love this review! <3

Just finished reading it (in french) and surprisingly enough, not much reviews to be found about it, so this video was a nice surprise 🙂

I"ve been wanting to read Coin Locker Babies for so long, but like you, I read too many books at one time and have to focus on finishing the ones I started lol. I wonder if you like any of Greg Araki's other films, since I feel Mysterious skin is his most accomplished film in his filmography. glad I found your channel since I always need more book recommendations.

your review feels like a little youtube miracle.. I read the book in a mix of intensity and bluriness as english my native language and felt like I was in front of a masterpiece with a great difficulty of explaining why. So I kind of relate to your messy but charming chat about it. Greetings from Paris, France.

Thanks...i am currently reading it....great book.

Interesting.

Never heard of this one before but sounds interesting! I've read Oryx & Crake from her which is excellent but damn bleak at times (like many of her novels)

Thanks for the talk on this book, early Atwood does seem something I'd like. I've never read Atwood, always stuck in my Fantasy/Historical Fiction! It's always looked like that people who don't even read much have found value/enjoyment in her books. Subbed!

This is actually quite relaxing

watching this for a test in class. this video was great much love xx💕💕

Nice review, greetings from Portugal 🇵🇹

Great review. With you!

i am reading this book right now and i loved your review.

I've had this sitting on my shelf for so long, and I've finally picked it up because of your description of it. Thanks for the video.
