"I just don't like his face" I was brushing my teeth and spit all out laughing 😂😂😂 I most certainly agree!
Your camera is at it again... focusing on Snowglobe Emily. Such a traitor LoL
When even your camera doesn't love you... XD
I can't remember the specific book but it happened a lot, when author mentions characters race in the middle of the book. Maybe because I live in a very homogeneous Slavic country, so if author doesn't specify the appearance I just imagine characters white and then I feel bad about imagining character with wrong race😅
I think that happens a lot tbh
As a Romanian, I agree.
Matt Damon do you need some ice for that burn? 😂😂😂
I'm sure he's a good dude... I would just prefer if he could stop acting in my favorite movies, you know?
"she let out a breath she didn't know she was holding" sounds like a fart :D
Hate to love is the best! The tension, the banter, the EMOTIONS!!
A Bookish Life Yes hate to love is my favorite trope, closely followed by the big city guy/girl returning to the small town and the guy/girl they left behind. I live for those two lol.
@@cucug8324 you enjoy the drama hahaha
RIP Matt Damon's face
I'm sure he's a lovely human but... yeah lol
@@BookswithEmilyFox I feel the same way about his face. I don't know why and it's a horrible statement but I'm so glad I've found a ally now!
I’ve let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding. We drove from NH to GA (about 1200 miles) overnight to look at a house and by the time we got there I had SUCH a migraine. It wasn’t until months later when we were driving back to move in that I realized I have a habit of holding my breath a lot while driving. Not enough to get dizzy or anything, I just don’t breathe enough. And only when I’m in heavy traffic or something making me anxious. So that’s why I was getting migraines on long trips. So now I have to remind myself to let out the breath I didn’t know I was holding many times while driving lol.
You might want to get your car checked. It could also be carbon monoxide poisoning.
ohsocoordinated it’s not. I’m fine if I breathe like a normal human being lol. Also I have a completely different car now and the same thing happens if I don’t pay attention. I’m also fine when in the passenger seat.
@@ericavandegrift6219 I'm glad to hear that it's not the car!
For Pride and prejudice my favorite version is Hollywood with Keira Knightley 💖one love honesty
Emily: Apologies to Matt Damon, we ran out of time!
I also usually avoid romance books but I'm fine with romance in movies. I don't even know why that is🙈
Last time I watched Twilight I was surprised how good is the acting of Bella Swan because of those small facial expressions. The actress managed to get 20 different feelings appear in her face in a single moment. As an introvert I felt that it perfectly represents introverts. You have to pay attention to notice it, but it's done very realistic. :)
I haven’t cancelled plans explicitly to read. But the Graceling trilogy in high school I brought with me and read in class, at break, at lunch, on the bus until I’d finished them.
OMGOSH I FELT THE SAME WAY ABOUT MATT DAMON! *high five*
OMG the way you pronounce "Hermione" in french it's very similar how it's pronounced in portuguese (so i also said it wrong in many years). I also have a thing about how i imagined a character and it looks when its translated to film (one character for me was so spot on, was Dumbledore in the first 2 movies, i imagined just like that, but the actor died so... yeah).
That's interesting. I find romance in movies cringey and prefer it in books!
I totally second that! I read a lot of romance but kinda avoid romcoms because they always gotta have this grandiose ending with engagement and shit like that XD
Same
yeah romance in movies makes me super uncomfortable. In a book it's totally ok.
About Pride and Prejudice, I have an edition with a historical analysis section and it has a picture of how men dressed back in the days. I kept imagining Darcy wearing a white whig the whole time 😂
I think Matt Damon needs some Aloe Vera for the BUUUUUUURN
I imagine all characters differently from movies and even after watching them it doesn't influence me. But I feel like the BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice has a nearly perfect cast! I could never get on board with the Keira Nightly version.
For names I mispronounce tons of them, because I am also not a native English speaker. And then there are names like Elend from Mistborn which I have still no idea of how to pronounce correctly since it's a German word and I can only say it that way haha
"I just don't like his face" 😂 is it bad that I think the same about quite a few people? 😲
I'm pretty sure that's just how it works lol
That's how I feel about Brian Cox. Actually his face is fine, but I don't like watching him speak. Super smart and great explanations, just can't watch him.
I always misspronounced all the names! With Hermione too. Here in Spain its pronounce Er-mi-on (as in French) so I always pronounce that way until I watched the movies in english
I used to read a lot of Clive Cussler back in the day and was particularly into Dirk Pitt. When I realized one of his books had been made into a movie (Sahara) I was VERY hyped. Then Dirk was played by Matthew McConaughey. He was nothing like I pictured over, no joke, probably 20 books. Eventually I watched Burn Notice and the character Michael Westen was exactly how I pictured Dirk (both looks and his personality.) If anyone had read this far, thank you. I'm still not over it.
Hey! I don't read names either^^
I have aphantasia so I tend to never imagine anyone ever. The only time I realize I had done it was with Luna Lovegood. Movie!Luna was EXACTLY what I wanted her to be. It was like she came straight from my head and heart and I loved her so much!
We studied Candide 3 YEARS in a row and i never read it all the way because I HATED IT WITH A PASSION!
I almost NEVER have social plans to cancel, but I did miss soooooo many classes in college because I was in the computer room reading fanfictions (that was before you could read on phones lol)...
I also have aphantasia. People are probably the hardest for me to imagine, I can get hair length and color, sex, and maybe skin color if I focuse really hard. I can only imagine things I have seen, so if a book has a movie, all the book characters look like the actors if try to imagine them. When I was younger I read books in Finnish. Finnish doesn't have different 3rd person pronouns for men and women and sometimes I couldn't guess the gender right based on the name. Quite often I'd think character was one gender and later in the story they would be refered to as man/woman and I'd realise I had gotten the gender wrong xD
Eyeliner? Unmatched. Gold hoops? Elegant af! Blue top? 😍. The sass? Giving me life!! Face? Is serving!
For me Keira Knightley and Colin Firth - would love to see an adaptation with this match up haha!
For me, Tris in Divergent - totally not how I imagined her! Don't get me wrong, the actress who played her is very beautiful, but I imagined this petite skinny teenager, somebody more fierce with sharper facial features, and Shailene was more curvy with softer face. She just didn't seem like someone who fits her fraction (even though technically she fits all fractions).
Totally with you on romance in movies versus books!
I'm a Pride & Prejudice snob lol I only like and will only watch the BBC version
I have skipped chapters! If there is a lot of battles, I can skip over or skim heavily. When they have endless fights, I will blow past those.
Since like the stories about "the one" you should read the faithful and the fallen series. But keep in mind that the first book can get slow but its really good!
I don't think the first question was asking about movies/adaptations. They quite often are not faithful to the book's descriptions of character appearances. It's more like if you've ever been reading a book, and then you read a sentence that makes you realise you've been picturing the character wrong the whole time. Recently I was reading a book, and I thought the protagonist had dark hair because he HAS DARK HAIR ON THE COVER, and then I got slapped in the face with "honey-coloured hair." And every time since then I read that he had honey-coloured, golden, or just plain blond hair, it felt like the author was deliberately trolling me lmao.
You're right but I have a tendency to change the questions to something I would rather answer XD
This shows so much similarity between us. I also don’t read names and therefore can’t remember names. I also don’t really picture characters in my mind so I can’t really tell you what they’re supposed to look like.
I skip different POV chapters but I come back to them. If there is a character whose story is very interesting I can't wait! I skip ahead and read a few of their chapters before going back and catching up with other characters. For example Ten Soon in The Hero of Ages, I read almost all of his chapters before backtracking and catching up with the others. Also I skipped some flashbacks in Stormlight Archive series because the present was more interesting. I always come back to read the skipped parts later on.
5:58 noooo! 😂 It's like "chaos" but with an l, Chaol haha
I would read Chaol as Kay-ol and now I only think about kale when I see his name lmao
You mean it’s not Kay-ol?? For real?
@@ivingzuniga841 NOOO!
Wait I pronounce it Cha-owl
French is my second language, English is my third and Brazilian Portuguese is my fourth! I haven’t read anything in French since high school, I’ve forgotten a lot, but I speak English with a French accent or a Lebanese one!
I read the 6th Harry Potter in a week while having a one month old baby, I don’t remember how I did it!
French is my second language, and that is apparently my go-to accent for new languages. It amused my German professor no end.
I'm reading Throne of Glass for the first time right now and I read Chaol's name as Coal. It definitely sounds way better!
A book without punctuation is my worst nightmare. 😱😬
LOL!! I love how blunt you are. =0)
I'm with you on Peeta. I still like him veery much ;) But yeah, that ending made me mad too...
What part of the ending you did'nt like? I think it was amazing
SPOILERS
Why the hell did Katniss have kids?! Like why?!
@@vitoriaassuncao7716 Yeah, I do think it was overall fitting. But just the whole thing with Peeta in the third book really made 12 year old me mad.
I get that he remembers some memories again and that he learns to differentiate between the false and the real memories but just the thought that they took all his memories of her made me cry like mad. That it just something so irreversable. That forever changed him. Like I said, 12 year old me cried a lot.
@@BookswithEmilyFox I guess I did like the overall ending.
I could have done without the kids but I liked the dandelion monologue. For me that really tied in with why Peeta was the right choice for her. What made me really mad was more the "Peeta false memory" thing. I read the books for the first time when I was 12 and, boy, did that make me cry. A lot.
@@BookswithEmilyFox doesn't she have them in the books? (damn i'm not sure anymore....) but if not then yeah that sucks. I guess no matter what female = mother in most people's mind and they had to have her with kids or else she wasn't "whole" gnagnagna. (saying all that under the hypothesis that she doesn't have kids in the book, I can't remember for sure... god am I making any sense?)
Hermione's dress not being periwinkle, I'll always be mad about that. Also Michael Gambon as Dumbledore in Goblet of Fire specifically, I do not think so ma'am.
I definitely skipped perspectives in The Devil in the White City when I read it in high school. I only wanted to read the HH Holmes bits and had to read the book for class.
yea I somehow managed to read book 2 of harry potter without realising that Hagrid was a half giant, so I imagined like a tall lanky guy? (I read the second book first because I got it for my birthday and my mum made me read it, at that time I was 'too cool for harry potter' lol I realised my mistake when reading philosophers stone for the first time xD
Your camera is on theme at the beginning of the video :D I also had issue with pronouncing Hermione's name. You look really elegant in this video, rocking a blue dress which would have looked amazing in the movies. Could you let me know what lipstick you are wearing?
I’ve always felt the same about Peeta! 🙌
I am an absolute monster when it comes to skipping lol I will ruthlessly skip anything and everything that I don't care to read about. Sometimes I have skipped entire books in a series 😅just jumped to the ending of the last book. I think I skip so much because stories just need to be finished for me. I start reading a book....I will finish reading the book. I don't do the whole read-a-book-in-multiple-days kind of thing very often. Mostly I just read until it's finished. That means I have to skip, otherwise I would not be able to actually live like a normal human being. ^^ My justification is mostly that I read for entertainment so I don't think I owe it to the author or anyone really to do something for entertainment that I don't find very entertaining. lol It has made me sometimes miss important things though but never anything I really cared to know. And I could always go back and read it again if I would want to, have done that actually a few times. By the second read through I might also skip things though...also I might not start at the beginning but instead read randomly. Honestly, I am chaos incarnate when it comes to reading lmao 🤷♀️
I'm the opposite ! I don't get how people can read a book in one day or in one sitting. Books are like and adventure to me, and I want to take my time with it. The more I like a book, the longer i'll take to read it. The only books I've ever tried to finish as fast as I could were required reading for school. I feel terrible for skipping even just a paragraph haha. You must read a lot of books really fast like that !
You look so beautiful in this video, Emily! That top is gorgeous on you ❤️
I've always been bad at spelling but I've also always read a ton. I think it's because I read all the words how you read names so I never learnt how words were spelt. 🤷♀️
Camera loves Snowglobe Emily 😄
I'm definitely not his favorite!
@@BookswithEmilyFox Your camera is a he? Not a she, like a boat?! I don't know what the right answer is, I've never thought about a camera's gender before 😂
He's being an ass so... sure :P
I skipped a lot of chapters from the POV of characters I didn't care about in They Both Die at the End. I just wanted to know what would happen to the main characters, so reading from the perspectives of everyone else felt unnecessary and I had no patience! Lol
Spoiler Warning!!!!!!!!!!!!!! With The Hunger Games Series, I don't like what they did with Peta in the movies. I thought Hutchenson looked like he was supposed to for the most part. What I didn't like was that they never took Peta's leg at the end of the first movie. The whole point on why Katniss was worried about him going into the arena again was because he lost a leg in the last one and he'd be at a huge disadvantage.
She's not scared about him not being able to swim with two healthy legs, but with one leg and one prosthetic, it's hard. Uneven terrain would wear him out. It really just pissed me off. My cousin said it was because Hemsworth looked so much better, but Gale was supposed to be a heartthrob who was poor and Peta was supposed to be somewhat attractive but part of the middle-ish class so he had more interest.
Sorry I can rant about this for ages.
With the new book, I don't want it to be Snow was good and pure and then suddenly turned evil or even a slow descent into evil.
David Thewlis IS NOT Remus Lupin. I had a lot of feelings about that and clearly I still do.
And character changing! I love X-Men and somehow we can carry the same bit actor for Colossus through every movie but we have a different Kitty Pryde in EVERY ONE.
I also skip names in books, when I read Twilight I actually often got confused because I mixed up Carlisle/Charlie a lot.
I barely read any books for school.
I never skipped chapters of a book, but there were a few POVs I would have loved to skip, like Jacob in Twilight or Cameron in the Red Queen Series, or somtimes I wish there was a different POV in books, for example Rin annyoed the hell out of me in the middle of Poppy War and in the beginning of Dragon Republic.
Oh I was totally team Jacob as a teenager so I definitely didn't skip his chapters... :P
I just finished mockingjay and i'm sorry freaking más about that book!!!! I really felt it when you said it
Omggg Hermione in french!!! Same!!! I speak french and like even now I think it sounds better 😂 love your channel
Wanting to skip a chapter? YES! Actually, skipping it? No, because I'm too scared I'd miss something important. 😶
Finally someone who understands about Matt Damon
I would watch a romance then read it, because it doesn't take as long to watch a movie or an episode then read a romance novel. I see "she let out a breath she didn't know she was holding" all the time!
i’m so distracted like u look so beautiful in this vid 😭😭
For the chosen one trope with no insta-mastery of skill I highly recommend Malice by John Gwynne- I think I've seen it on your shelves.
See, this is the type of recommendations I need in my life. Books I already own lol
Spelling contests are called spelling bees in English (or at least in the US)... and now I’m off to go google why that is! Ha.
You look so beautiful in this dress, and hair and earrings 😍😊
I called off work when the last Harry Potter book came out.
I totally would have done the same!
Ajajajaj omg I’m dying with the Emily globe in focus instead of you!🤣
yes I have skipped chapters and felt like a monster hihi
Avid readers are better writers. I've been told this by MANY professors. In fact, that's been the strong argument in US schools for not teaching sentence diagramming and all that. You can know how to do all of that, but it doesn't make you a good writer, but being an avid reader, particularly of edited and published materials, WILL improve your writing skills.
Yes definitely. I'm dyslexic but have always read a lot. I don't have that big a problem with writing, I even find myself correcting other people, but never ask me to read out loud or spell something by sound. I can only spell by memory, and can never guess how a new word is supposed to be pronounced or written 😅
Definitely, I always read a lot as a kid, and when I was in middle and high school I was shocked to see some people's nonsensical writing, you could see the difference between those who read and those who didn't to their grammar.
I think I’m the only one that doesn’t think josh hutcherson is attractive lol I didn’t like his as peeta. Not how I imagined him at all 🙈
I would definitely be that level of petty with the blue dress 😂
I have a feeling that book without punctuation was by José Saramago, just a feeling might be wrong
I recently read the shining. I watched the movie ages ago but the actors of the movie are still pretty well in my memories. The actress playing Wendy is a brunette. And then in the book he kept talking about Wendys blond hair. That was kind of frustrating
Yes my answer for the first question will be Beta too ... same issue for name
Which character/actor changed in 'To all the boys I've loved before' ?
I never read The Scarlet Letter but still got an A on the exam. Cliff Notes.
Oh my, I still look at words to see if they look "right" (especially with for those pesky double consonnants, or sometimes accents), glad to know I'm not the only one 😂
When it comes to character names, I've always pronounced Sazed (Mistborn) "Sa-zed" but then I heard most people on booktube pronounce it "Sayzd". I love the cast from The Hunger Games mostly because of nostalgia but let's be honest, they did Katniss, Gale and Haymitch dirty with the white-washing, and Josh isn't my Peeta either, the actress for Annie isn't close to what she looks like in the book. Usually when I picture a character differently that what they actually look like, it has to do with their hair : colour or length. I'll be picturing someone with a hair colour and then 100 pages later I'll realize it was not that colour at all 😬
Camera went all in on the 'I messed up' part of the tag lmao
Names in books are always kind of a hit and miss for me, because I read then the way i'd like them to sound and most of the time I'm wrong. Currently reading the Wheel of Time, and the names in this are a struggle and a half.
The only required reading i didnt ginish for school was when my English teacher wanted us to read '13 reasons why'. No interest whatsoever in that book.
And I haven't skipped social events because of reading, but I have nearly missed trains/busses because I wanted to squeeze in one more chapter lol
I've definitely missed out on some sleep but yeah no events lol
Where is that dress from, tho? It looks so pretty on you!
YesStyle! bit.ly/3b3Z7iw
Seems to be sold out now tho!
Movie Voldemort is totally wrong based on my imagining of Book Voldemort. But I'm not a Ralph Fiennes fan either.
I agree I hate it when tv shows or movies change the actor/actress who would take over a role within a different episode .... so annoying.
Omg I don't read names either ( if I can remember it) I can't every age character right 😬
I skipped a social gathering to finish the last 100 pages of The Book Thief, I have also been late to events because I was reading... oops
I hate, and I mean, HATE, Clair Danes in Romeo + Juliet (1996).
YES.
Your dress is lovely! I think you should give your camera a name, so that you can talk about your efforts to defeat your nemesis and keep him in line. I suggest calling him Kale. :P
Honestly... it's start with a K so that works for me... we all know Kyles and Kevins suck so Kales probably do too!
I guess everyone was disappointed by Edward in the movies 🤣🙈
"no, but yes" :)
Please do reading vlogs!!!
Only fitting the focus is on the wrong spot in the "I messed up" book tag XD
Same. I did not like Robert Pattinson as Edward. I was critical of that as well. I was critical of all of the movies. Not a fan
Also its supposed to be "kay-all" however I will point out that the only reason I know that is because I listened to the audiobook for the first book but when I saw it when I started the 2nd I would of pronounced it kohl too
I think I've never cancelled already scheduled plans to read a book, but I have definitely not scheduled in as many social plans to be able to read and have some me time. I enjoy being around other people but I also need to be alone sometimes. #justintrovertthings
For the, "a character name that you've been pronouncing wrong" question... I am so guilty of this! I always feel super embarrassed after I hear somebody pronounce their name properly too, because it usually makes so much more sense. Like in the Darker Shades of Magic trilogy and the character Rhy? Ree. For all three books I called him Ree. Then I heard a booktuber talking about him and pronouncing it as Rye. Oops.
Your lipstick is such a pretty colour, by the way! Can I ask what shade you're wearing?
I'm 90% sure this was Mac Modesty... it was a bit prefilmed but I'm pretty sure lol
@@BookswithEmilyFox Thank you so much! :D
Actually i think it’s “Kae-ol” (Chaol)
What book had no punctuation at all? I remember Contre Dieu by Patrick Senecal was like that and gosh, I hated it so much.
I can't remember at all lol I know it was written by a woman but that's it
ngl i also don't feel like watching movies with matt damon in it. also lost all interest to read the martian when they published the book with the movie cover rofl.
I skipped most of the Carry On chapters in Fangirl because I just wasn't interested.
I think The truth about Harry quebert by Joel Dicker made me canceI plans. I needed to know the ending.
Agree with everything you said about Twilight Emily! No facial expressions was so weird and I also don’t really care for Robert pattinson-overrated and also lacked expression!
"The Hobbit" by Peter Jackson - My God the WORST!!! I like the casting but the modifications made were PAINFUL. I'm DEVASTATED till today :(
I've cancel my time to study because of a book, but not for hanging out with friends.
Who else pronounced Lyra from His Dark Marerials as "Leera"?? Up until the third book where it waa noted that her name sounded like "Liar" and I went Ah, shoot.
I DID!!! Especially since I read them in French so... Leera made sense lol
Don't ever read any Nicholas Sparks book if you ever break. His language is horrendous
🤭🤭😅😅
In 'A Song of Ice and Fire' I was almost always tempted to just skip Bran's chapters because he's boring as hell. And because I've never skipped them, I've skim read through them.
There is a bollywood version of pride and prejudice?
Its called "Bride and Prejudice"
