just what i needed for fall!!!!!

First!11❤❤❤❤❤

Nicole and I loved the video Jodie!! Nicole's gonna pick up Klara and The Sun :)

I’m considering getting The God and the Gumiho. The only thing stopping me from buying this book, is the romance. I stop reading romance because I have K-Drama for that.

happy Jodie Uploads Day to all who celebrate

Was just trying to peep the title and author names the whole time 😅 love your facial expressions though! I enjoyed Klara and the Sun when I read it!

fantastic, gimme 14 of 'em rn

Your cats are so cute 🥹🫶 I usually get up at 7am to read before work and even that is tough for me so I can’t imagine 5am 😮‍💨

Do you drink your coffee black?? Also i wanna try this challenge but i work 3rd shift at the hospital..so..if i have a day off i can maybe wake up at noon...that would be equivalent to your 5am i think 😊 great video!

You've inspired me

I love that ending 😂

Iced coffee? Gurl! I once tried iced coffee and never tried it again. Unless it’s like really really hot then I’ll put one ice cube to cool it down.

I think you should read the book. The 5 am club since you have been well! Lol

congrats!!!

Not sure if you’re going to like this but my older sister gave me this book to read. She told me here bozo something to read throws the book “The promise” by Daniel Steel. Maybe you would like it. This is an old book though. I’m a but hesitant to pick up romance books but im taking a swing at it next month.

Enjoyed it! I’m going to check out the Cloud Cuckoo Land. Not sure if Stand or B&N has it. 😐

First time here! Can’t wait to check out these books!

Editing is top tier once again 🤌✨ I absolutely LOVE The Hating Game im so glad you agree… and thank you for reminding me that I need to reread it 🤭

I was wondering the same…should I freak out?! Cause I am overachieving, reading goal wise 😂. And also loved In the dream house, very unique format but still compelling.

books??? plural??? damn I should read more lol the last book I read was Crying in H Mart, which is hands down my favorite book ever. But I need to try more eventually

LOVE

omg i read all romance books for a month too! i hope you had fun 😁also your effects are hilarious

The effects are just wonderful!!!

hi mama jodie

This is the first video of yours I've seen and I absolutely loved it! Loved the slice of life content and your book commentary and your cat is so cute!!

I literally just bought In the Dream House today from a thrift store and then your video popped up. Wild. Loved your video.

First video I’ve seen of you and I am obsessed! It felt like you were chatting with me like how I chat with my friends 🤗

Doing tag videos without being tagged is THE peak booktube experience 😌🤌✨ Love In the Dream House sooo much! I want to reread it soon because it’s been a minute for me. I’ve been meaning to check out Cloud Cuckoo Land bc I loved his other book All the Light We Cannot See 👀

+1 on the iron flame slander

SPICY

You're my romance book connoisseur

Share recipe for chicken marinade please 🤲

FIRST HAHAHAAHAAHA

I will put 'Cloud Cuckoo Land' on my wish list. By the way, you are a striking lookalike to a friend of mine. I honestly thought you were her for a moment.

I agree that you have to be in a certain headspace to read it. I read this book in my 20s when I was suffering from depression and could see Holden's need for company and grief for his brother. I still remember how he felt he was becoming (invisible? don't exactly remember) when he was crossing the street near the end because I felt the same way. And I feel people who call this book a red flag don't really understand it. One needs to look past Holden's phoniness and see that he needed help. And let's not forget, the book was published after the second world war, so it's really a very sad book.

You might like cloud Atlas since you loved cloud cuckoo land!

YESSS COLLEEN

So, I can understand people not relating to Holden in this book, but I think the criticism a lot of readers give this book with Holden coming off as whiny and annoying really shows sort of the hypocrisy and social privelege some of have. This is a character who is spiralling with mental health problems and grieving. This is a very raw portayal of not angst but anger and being lost. Yet, people just say he complains. The narration has a lot of accountability and isn't pretending to be virtuous. Feeling loneliness and grief and depression (when he hears people laughing on the sidewalk half a mile away and it depresses him). This is relatable. And so i find it funny that a strong voice who is going through existential problems isn't more sympathetic with some people. I personally think that people want to hate Holden because thet view him as a priveleged male. If you look at ither reviewers, this cones up a bunch. But yeah, criticizing society and dealing with loneliness and procrastinating incoming bad news isn't just a kid thing. The socal privilege thing I mentioned earlier is because this book is riddled with the theme of loneliness and death. I think people who have always had a good support structure would label him as annoying but for me the voice is effective. Anyways, to each their own, but it's definitely a book I think lingers with those that may veer on the negative side. Not to say that's healthy, but it is powerful and authentic.
