    @HilaryAlice16 Oh, I can totally relate:) I used to work at a bank for years and as much as i loved working with people I hated the idea of working at a financial institution. I'm so grateful for the lifestyle we have been able to built for ourselves and this book has been a tremendous help:) You will love it!

    Thank you for this video, Mimi! Love finding new books and these are all right up my alley!! Those books like The Power of now are real gems, crazy how You Can randomly flip to a page and apply to your life...I've tried this with my mom and a few friends and it's astonished them all. Magic! Haha 😊 Thank you.

    The Four Agreements is an absolute MUST! It is written by the same author that wrote the Mastery of Love. It will change your life.

    It is so refreshing to see someone as positive and kind as you. Lately, i have been surrounded by really negative people who put others down and constantly criticize everyone/everything and its really been getting to me. I almost lost faith that nice people exist. But its really great seeing someone that smiles and doesn't have all this crazy sassy attitude. Please always stay this sweet! Its one of your greatest traits :) Helpful video btw. Thank you!

    Thank you for this. It's always a pleasure to see your videos on my inbox. It's nice watch people who live their lives with meaning and still appreciate a trip to the mall. :)
    I love watching your videos for inspiration, whether it be clothing or books!
    Mimi, please continue to make videos, they're like little gifts in my day.

    Much like with Leyla's list a lot of these are on my list. Thank you for reminding me of some of these books, I forgot about a couple of them. I'm looking forward to having some time to read these books after I'm done my undergrad in April :) You have such a good and positive attitude which is admirable. And you are one of the few that look lovely in yellow, by the way!

  • @claretelles
    @claretelles 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    OMG!! I love your book recommendations! I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to hear about your vipassana experience! It's also like the Paul Coehlo book has been screaming at me for some time now, I think I am finally going to read it! Anything by Wayne Dyer would be great but Everyday Magic is the book that changed my life and got me reading self help books for over ten years!!! (Don't worry I also love reading and never read only one type of book :)) I'm so happy you made this video!!!

  • @AJNG99
    @AJNG99 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love Tuesdays With Morrire. What a great book! It is one of my favourites ever. Also, Don Miguel Ruiz is a great author. I enjoy his Four Agreements book. Great selections you have picked. We defintely have the same taste in books.

  • @Aundi20
    @Aundi20 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great list Mimi!!! I'm definitely going to have make a trip to the bookstore soon =). I actually have a couple of recommendations for you! I know...twist! lol.
    If you like Tuesdays with Morrie, you'll love "The five people you meet in heaven." Its by the same author, and I'm obsessed with it. I think I've read it 10 times! And another one I think you girls would like is "Eat, Pray, Love." I read it years ago, and literally have almost every page dog tagged.

    @888biedronka 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    +everything luxy I am on a Mimi marathon tonight and I gotta say this...as much as I love all of them GOSH have you ever improved over time! It's amazing to see the "evolution" of your channel...but speaking about books,those you mentioned are all of my favourite except for the Meditation book as I've never read it.Mimi,I remember in one of the vlogs you mentioned books you loved as a child like the Dr Dolittle (loved it as well) so I am curious if you've ever read Children of the Noisy Village by Astrid Lindgren? This is the English title,I've read it in Polish which sounded a bit different but anyways together with Hans Christian Andersen tales , one of my best memories of growing up!

    Hi Mimi! Please do do the silent meditation video. I've been thinking of doing one for a while now, but I guess never found the proper time or conviction to follow through... looking to hear from some one who's done it!
    Loves!

  • @EverythingLuxy
    @EverythingLuxy  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @thepowerofnow2 Yes, it's a great book:) I have read it years ago and I follow Robin Sharma on Twitter:) hehe:)
    I will definitely consider doing a video on my 10 day silent vipassana meditation experience:)

    @solidcoco Thank you for the recommendation:) I'll be sure to check it out:)

  • @smilesarelove111
    @smilesarelove111 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    The books, poems, and short stories that change me the most, are those I've read in my lit classes (I'm a lit major). One of my all time favorite authors in Nathaniel Hawthorne. His writing, allusions, irony, etc. is just amazing. I've also recently gotten into Ray Bradbury. Literature has a lot of amazing stories that people just write off as "old", and don't take the time to appreciate it!

  • @aalamode
    @aalamode 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    I loved your recommendations and am going to try to read them all. The book series I have to recommend is Harry Potter. People who Aren't familiar (the movies don't count!) brush it off as a silly children's book, but honestly it has taught me so much about life, the people we meet, and the decisions we make. No other book has had such a lasting impact. I promise if you give it a try you will love it!

  • @angelbunny225
    @angelbunny225 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Tuesdays with Morrie is amazing! I LOVE it... really makes you think...I love anything written by Mitch Albom or "Last Lecture" by Randy Pausch!

  • @vivian8923
    @vivian8923 11 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @lillybizzo
    @lillybizzo 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Paulo Coelho is so talent and his books is the best for our life. I nave "The Power of Now" in english and portugues, its complex but its a must-have book, is a awaken for life. I work driving hours a day, so I will re-purchase a bunch of book in audible form. Thanks for sharing!

  • @FashionAplenty
    @FashionAplenty 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    The Alchemist is the perfect read when you are starting a new life, so I think it is so perfect that you got to read it after you moved here =) I too read the entire book in one setting. You should do more of these book-related videos!

  • @Courtney6

  • @leishaisrani7586
    @leishaisrani7586 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love Sophie Kinsella as well. It's funny you mention her because no one i've spoken to here in the States knows who she is. I'm reading "Remember me?" by her right now and I love it so far. I've also read "Twenties Girl". Thank you for your recommendations, they all sound transformational. I'm particularly interested in the "4 hour work week", the book on love, and the one on your life's purpose. I'll share what I think once I've read them. Best wishes!

    • @888biedronka
      @888biedronka 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Leisha Israni I've read all of her books and I love them all! Her new one in the shopaholic series comes out in a few days but as far as the stand alone titles you MUST read Can you keep a secret and the Undomestic Goddess and then I've got your number....but Can you keep a secret is DA BOMB!

  • @sugarsoul831
    @sugarsoul831 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    The Starting Point of Happiness - Ryuho Okawa. I would say some of the concepts in the book were over my head, because it is a buddhist perspective. Some I agree with and some I am not sure. However, I received this from a friend when I was going through a rough time myself. I keep going back to it when I'm at some real lows. It opened my eyes with regards to feeling happy and appreciative for the things I do have. It is a short book, and it is a nice to read a chapter a night or something like that, or even a chapter a week to let things settle in your mind.

  • @XeniaAllen
    @XeniaAllen 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I loved reading the Alchemist! I tried reading Eckert Tolle's books, but I could never get through any of them so I stopped trying. I understand what he is saying, but his style of writing puts me to sleep. I read many other books containing the same messages that held my attention and I could not put them down.

  • @ntnguyen247
    @ntnguyen247 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    mimi thank you for putting up this video of your favorite books. After watching this I knew I needed to read something that wasn't fiction.. I went out and bought the mastery of love and this other book that the woman recommended me which is called the laws of spirit by Dan Millman. She said it changed her life so that sounds interesting. But thank you again I love all of your videos :)

    I love seeing that even beautiful people like you and Leyla are very deep and understanding of life. Pretty people and people that mess around with make-up and stuff usually are stereotyped about being shallow and superficial, you guys totally break that stereotype! Awsome!

    A bit off topic, but I know you've talked about switching to beauty products that are healthy and cruelty free. I'm doing the same, and it would be great if you could do a video on some of your favorite products you've found!

    @Charbelbkuri 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would like to recommend "guardians of being" by Eckhart Tollie as well, it is such a powerful book, using the basics of "the power of now" but in graphics with animals, something that even a kid would understand about veinte "present". Wonderful and amazing. Please give it a try. Thanks for sharing.
