I can’t do proper monthly TBR lists haha my next book is chosen by throwing runes and reading the stars. In fact telling myself I’m reading a particular book next is probably the best way to ensure I don’t read it next.
The guy behind the move to ban All Boys Aren't Blue recently was arrested for alleged child sexual abuse, and that book puts a really specific spotlight on that particular issue and the fact that if children and teens don't know what sexual abuse is, they are more likely to internalize what is happening than to tell someone or to blame their abuser.... so like so many books banned in the United States, its small minded people who don't want children and teens to be educated.
I remember one night my dad read Maus to me and my sister late at night on the couch, and he imitated my grandfather’s polish/yiddish accent when the old man is supposed to be speaking. Maus taught me about my history and gave me cultural context for who and what I come from! I hope you enjoy it
Hi Jack: Looking forward to hearing about all these, especially Elektra and The Transgender Issue but ESPECIALLY the banned books. It is crucial people understand that just because a book is banned doesn’t mean it is not worth reading. Quite often it is the EXACT opposite situation but some group of individuals don’t want them read for their own personal view limitations. Love and Excitement, 🌹 (on her own today)
For banned books, I can wholeheartedly recommend the graphic novel 'Gender Queer' by Maia Kobabe. I recently read it, I immediately felt like buying twenty copies so I could give it to everyone I know. Its autobiographical and tells the story of Maia's growing up and learning about how ey want to express eir gender. Is has been the book that has most clearly explained gender queerness for me, and I'm exceptionally grateful for it, for that. highly, highly recommend!
Read it because I was curious as to why it was banned. I get why children shouldn't read it but I think it should be made available to teenagers. Apart from some scenes it clearly outlined what gender queerness is
We actually read Maus in 9th grade English classes. Quite a lot of my class were really into it and we had many deep talks about it, especially because many of my classmates could not think that graphic novels/comics could depict very sad and historic subject matter
I have read The Bluest Eye at the beginning of this year and absolutely loved it! It was really fast paced, stunning prose and super interesting! I'm excited to hear your thoughts. I think you're gonna love it!
Can't wait for the banned books video!! Also just a heads up for anyone with The Bluest Eye on their tbr: while it's a really important, powerful story it also contains some potentially VERY triggering subjects. I recommend checking out the content warnings listed on Storygraph or another source before reading to make sure you have the mental energy to handle that content. Wish I had done that before reading haha.
I’m a Parisian English lit student and I feel your pain. I spent my undergrad years scavenging Paris’ bookshops for cheap English books. It was a hustle and it’s even worse now, a bunch went down during the lockdowns.
I picked Up "None of this is serious" on a trip to London, and I am only a few chapters in, but i am in love with the way the author writes characters and how she makes them feel like they are actually real people, so I highly recommend 🥰
you're officially one of my comfort youtuber 🥺💕 i subscribed to your channel in january and since then i've been watching your past videos and recent uploads. you never fail to lift up my mood, thank you jack! 💖
Hello, Jack. As a part of your translated fiction, can you also read some Romanian authors? Herta Müller is a german-romanian writer that wrote a lot about the prosecution of the german minority in Romania under the Communist rule. Other praised books would be Little Fingers by Filip Florian, , The Sixty-year-old Woman and the Young man by Nora Iuga, Life Begins on Friday by Ioana Pârvulescu, The Forbidden Forest by Mircea Eliade.
I’m interested in reading some more banned books, I might look into these! I’m currently reading The Copenhagen Trilogy by Tove Ditlevsen, The Passion by Jeanette Winterson and Piranesi by Susanna Clarke… absolutely loving all of them so far
Jack, you are responsible for my ever-expanding Pinterest "Books of Interest" page where I keep an expanding list of books, I truly do want to read, but may never get around to. At least the books are not in the stack at the side of my bed or on the floor of my poor excuse for a library. Thanks.
can't wait to hear your thoughts on maus, i found it in my uni library the week after the banned and took it as a sign that i needed to read it and I'm so glad i did because wow! i learnt so much from it but it was heartbreaking too
my goal this month is to finish 1Q84 which is soooooooo long i’m like 40% through and it’s good but i’m not used to 900+ pages. i took a break from it to read I Kissed Shara Wheeler which was cute and quirky but definitely didn’t live up to the mcquiston hype. oh i also want to read loveless by alice oseman this month too since i LOVED the heartstopper comics and netflix show :)
So Jack, I read "Vagabonds!" over the weekend. I remember I saw the book in one of your book mail (I think) videos, and more than a few times while reading the book, I kept thinking, "Jack would love this!" So yeah my point is...read it. This year too, if you can. I very much think it's something you would really like. Thanks 🙃
I loved Elektra. 5 stars for me. Thankfully I got an ARC. Buying new English books are so expensive here in Germany. Some are cheap through Medimops (second hand online shop) but not all. However Elektra sets Saint coming into her own as a writer.
Love your videos, specially when you recomend translated fiction. I am from Spain, and here a lot of people don't read this books cause unfortunately they don't translate'em to Spanish (or they take a lot of time) so your YT Channel is very important for me. I think you'll like Cleopatra and Frankenstein, it's a unique book. This month I finished Confident women, a book about con women artists, and I'm currently reading Vanity Fair (Big book fear who? Lol).
m sad saying this but...m in a reading slump from last year (probably more) :(( no matter what i read...nothing's helping. what do i do? I want to get back into reading but i just cantttttttt TT
A Man Called Ove is spectacular! I know the movie for Me, Earl, and The Dying Girl does have a lot of racial stereotypes though :/ I’m not sure if the book is the same, but I’d be careful with that.
This is what Stephen King says about banned books. "...run, don't walk, to the nearest nonschool library or to the local bookstore and get whatever it was that they banned. Read whatever they're trying to keep out of your eyes and your brain, because that's exactly what you need to know.”
in abbey’s bookshop in the quarter latin the books are soo fckn expensivvee ahh, but i’m using the library in an suburb in paris which has an amazing english selection & my kindle:)) have u ever tried reading books in french?
the spanish translation for Maus is INSANE. how to fail at the most basic verb (to be) but excell at the rest, for 14 editions. of a pulitzer prize novel. (and they ignored my email about the cringe worthy mistake). The novel's cool tho
Are you planning on reading Young Mungo? I'm reading it at the moment and I really like it so far. I think I'm going to need to pick up Shuggie Bain at some point
When I was reading MAUS I wasn't thinking about the cover. One day I was just reading in a doctor's waiting room and everything was fine until I felt an old man looking at me and the book... When I understood what was happening I closed the book and just wanted to turn to the old man and say, "that's not what you're thinking, I swear". Ps: Sorry for any occasional English mistake, it's not my first language since I'm Brazilian. Kisses from Brazil. 😘
if you are doing a banned book video PLEASE read genderqueer by maia kobabe - if you are looking to become more familiar with different gender identities and some of the more unseen struggles genderqueer people go through its PERFECT (its a memoir so only one person's experience but i know a lot of people go through similar things) it was life changing to read - and its a graphic novel so it can be read in one sitting! its also one of the most banned booked in the USA. like, top three.
Hi Jack, I have a book recommendation for you if you ever decide to do a video about books dealing with different religions. My recommendation is 'The Gallery of Vanished Husbands' by Natasha Solomons. Not only does this book deal with Judaism, it also deals with the way generational trauma and belief systems can shape a family.
I started Me, Earl and the Dying Girl years and years ago and couldn't get past the first couple chapters. Lots of stereotypes of black families, foul language -- specifically sexual. Really just misogynistic in general. Not a great book to have in schools, I personally see why it would be banned and as a teacher I agree.
If you want to read the most appalling banned book, you should look into Grendel by John Gardner. If you’ve read Beowulf, this is basically the same story from the monsters perspective. It also uses astrology as a theme that appears in each chapter and shapes the story. While it was interesting it is incredibly gruesome and explicit. Grendel is banned in most American public schools but I went to a private school, hence why we read it when I was in grade 12, but it was AWFUL.
Speaking of band books, if you haven’t read The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky I would highly recommend it. I read the book for my philosophy of censorship class in college, and it’s easily become one of my all-time favorites. The writing style is so frank and refreshing when it comes to really serious topics, and it really does just scream adolescence. Though, huge trigger warning for SA, unalive, depression, and anxiety. But if you’re in a good mental space, it’s easily a 10 out of a 10 book!
You're probably not gonna read this, but it would be great if you could consider adding subtitles or leaving open the option for people to add them. I have hearing problems and I struggle to follow what you say because the automatic subtitles are wrong more often than not, so most of the times I just look at the cover of the book trying to guess what you are saying
We're having a genuine crisis in the United States about education. Conservative politicians keep trying to give parents with fringe beliefs the right to remove things like the holocaust from public school curriculum entirely and to sue the school if things like basic human sexuality are taught. Meanwhile there's an entire group of kids who are so far behind developmentally because of covid that we have first graders who aren't potty trained. It's really distressing
I read this book in middle school and loved it so much I did an oral presentation on it (it was 25% of my diploma, to tell you how much I loved it). It can't believe it is banned, this is such an important learning material !
I highly recommend reading Carmen Maria Machado! Her memoir "In The Dreamhouse," and her short story collection "Her Body and Other Parties" are absolutely stunning (and in the dreamhouse has recently made it onto lots of banned books lists in the U.S.)
Please make a video for all the books mentioned in (( The perks of being a wallflower )) Everyone please like and reply to my comment so he can see it ❤️
John Steinbeck is my favorite classical writer. East of Eden is a masterpiece of literature! It's basically Steinbeck's retelling of the Cain and Abel story from the Bible.
I can’t do proper monthly TBR lists haha my next book is chosen by throwing runes and reading the stars. In fact telling myself I’m reading a particular book next is probably the best way to ensure I don’t read it next.

What a great memory 💓 I definitely have Maus on my tbr!
The Bluest Eye and Maus are both absolutely stunning, heartbreaking stories. So looking forward to your thoughts!
I love those two!

YES

I second this! It's so good, and really helped me understand what being gender queer (can) mean.
We actually read Maus in 9th grade English classes. Quite a lot of my class were really into it and we had many deep talks about it, especially because many of my classmates could not think that graphic novels/comics could depict very sad and historic subject matter

The Bluest Eye is fantastic, and absolutely broke me when I read it. It was required reading for a class I took, and I'm so glad it was
I have the exact same copy of East of Eden!

My middle school teacher taught a course on banned books. I love him :)
At this point I just find comfort in his videos

A Man Named Ove made me cry for sure. Such a good one!
thank you so much for reading maus. i'm really glad.
Very glad you're enjoying A man called Ove, it's one of my favs.
All boys aren't blue is so great. Hope you love it
I cannot explain my love for “Man called Ove”🥺🥺 I just can’t
My favorite since high school is East of Eden! I was born in Salinas where Steinbeck is from, shoutout to Salinas!
I’m interested in reading some more banned books, I might look into these! I’m currently reading The Copenhagen Trilogy by Tove Ditlevsen, The Passion by Jeanette Winterson and Piranesi by Susanna Clarke… absolutely loving all of them so far
Ove is an all time favorite, I can’t wait to see what you think. It just may break my heart if you fall short of loving it!
All boys aren’t blue is such a beautiful book, I am so happy you are going to read it! Highly recommend the audio book as well!
I had to read The Bluest Eye for school. It is very well written, but you are definitely in for a ride.
Moving East of Eden to the top of my TBR because you liked it too. I've already seen a ton of praise, but this does it.
Jack, you are responsible for my ever-expanding Pinterest "Books of Interest" page where I keep an expanding list of books, I truly do want to read, but may never get around to. At least the books are not in the stack at the side of my bed or on the floor of my poor excuse for a library. Thanks.
Jack! You bring so much joy to books and reading. I have read some incredible books based of your recommendations, thank you for sharing
can't wait to hear your thoughts on maus, i found it in my uni library the week after the banned and took it as a sign that i needed to read it and I'm so glad i did because wow! i learnt so much from it but it was heartbreaking too
so looking forward to the banned books video but im surprised rage by Stephen king (under pseudonym) didn't make the cut!
I absolutely loved a man called ove, I felt so much
Mood reader is me. Except my mood will change within the hour 😩

Love all of the choices, hope to hear your thoughts on them soon!
East of Eden was also banned so you could mention that one in the banned books video too (also so glad that you enjoyed it, it’s my favourite book)

I saw this guy who looked exactly like you the other day but I live in New York so it wasn’t you, but I was like, wait I know him but then I didn’t
MAUS is so interesting, I actually read it in school, it is so heartbreaking and I cried a few times so brace yourself. But it is soo good.
I am so waiting for your review of none of this is serious!!
I had to read Maus in college history class I remember it.
Can't wait on your thoughts about A man called Ove. that book brooke me. its an all time favorite

Hey Jack! You mentioned you enjoyed graphic novels, could you do a video sharing your favorites?
m sad saying this but...m in a reading slump from last year (probably more) :(( no matter what i read...nothing's helping. what do i do? I want to get back into reading but i just cantttttttt TT
I first heard "band books" instead of "banned books", thought the books would be about bands. 😂
A Man Called Ove is spectacular! I know the movie for Me, Earl, and The Dying Girl does have a lot of racial stereotypes though :/ I’m not sure if the book is the same, but I’d be careful with that.
Words can’t describe how excited I am for he banned books video

We love to see Jack have Family based FOMO where he wants to discuss an awesome book (Just kidding)
in abbey’s bookshop in the quarter latin the books are soo fckn expensivvee ahh, but i’m using the library in an suburb in paris which has an amazing english selection & my kindle:)) have u ever tried reading books in french?
The bluest eye I read in school and dang the story is sooo disturbing. I learned a lot from it but definitely trigger warning.
i’ve been dying to read it but do you know the triggers/ where i can find a trigger warnings list?
Can’t wait to see what you think of Ove.
Everytime jack uploads a video. My brain:- now we have a tbrrrrrrrrrrr increaseeee!
the spanish translation for Maus is INSANE. how to fail at the most basic verb (to be) but excell at the rest, for 14 editions. of a pulitzer prize novel. (and they ignored my email about the cringe worthy mistake). The novel's cool tho
I want “Brain punchingly inane” on my Dating Bio. That’s it. That’s the comment.

Really excited for the banned books video.

The scariest thing is that ‘Maus’ has been a study material for many people to learn about the Holocaust. My Question is: Schools, what are you doing?
I’m from Austria and we studied this book in history class. It’s one of the best books I’ve ever read.
@@localabsurdist6661 That’s great!
We're having a genuine crisis in the United States about education.

Meanwhile there's an entire group of kids who are so far behind developmentally because of covid that we have first graders who aren't potty trained. It's really distressing
We also got the chance to read this book in 4th year in Ireland
I read this book in middle school and loved it so much I did an oral presentation on it (it was 25% of my diploma, to tell you how much I loved it). It can't believe it is banned, this is such an important learning material !
A Man Called Ove is one of my favourite books, I loved it. I cried a lot too, Fredrick Backman's books always make me cry.
i want a video of like lgtbq + books cuz im queer and i would like to read queer books and even if ur not queer i think it's nice
Back to our regularly scheduled programming where Jack plans how unhinged they are going to be with their future reading.
I highly recommend reading Carmen Maria Machado! Her memoir "In The Dreamhouse," and her short story collection "Her Body and Other Parties" are absolutely stunning (and in the dreamhouse has recently made it onto lots of banned books lists in the U.S.)
Wow I didn’t know that in the dream house is banned? It’s one of my favourite books ever
Maybe this will motivate me to actually read. I'm so behind on my tbr 😭
