no because Little Women is literally the backbone of my personality, i read it when i was very young and kept re-reading it (and its sequels) until I nearly knew it by heart, it forged me as a person and as a reader. You GOT to read and would love it, I feel like every young woman should
I read William Faulkner as a required reading last year for my 1st year of my MA English Literature syllabus. I also was in no mood for Light in August, but the way he uses stream of consciousness in a polyphonic form made me reluctantly recognise his special way painting worlds. Since then, I've read The Bear and A Rose for Emily-two short stories of his that I consider top quality. I guess I'm pulled in to his writing by the way he sees community relations and I'm sure I'll find more valuable insights in the rest of his works.
i think you would love little women!! it’s an all time favorite of mine, i put off reading it for the longest because it was a favorite of my grandmother’s and i thought it would be too dense and old fashioned or something for me to get into… i slept on it for too long though. never thought i’d meet a protagonist i relate to as much as jo march
Little Women is *chef's kiss*! It got me into classics. I highly recommend the film adaptation afterwards, there's already been a bunch but the latest one by Gerwig has great warm depiction and overall treatment. Both made me cry :')
Love your videos and your humor. I'm just starting my BA in English to teach one dsy, and I'm a 40 year old dude raising 2 kids lol. Never too late. Definitely love the videos, and the suggestions on goodreads. Thank you for the laughs and inspiration.
So,Catch-22 is based during a war in a military base and everyone has to do a specific amount of missions to go back home.But when someone gets close to the goal the Major increases the number.So the hero of the story has this catch explained to him by the doctor of the base.The catch basically is that, “There was only one catch and that was Catch-22, which specified that a concern for one's safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind. Orr was crazy and could be grounded. All he had to do was ask; and as soon as he did, he would no longer be crazy and would have to fly more missions. Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn't, but if he was sane he had to fly them. If he flew them he was crazy and didn't have to; but if he didn't want to he was sane and had to.”.I couldn’t recommend this book more to someone that hasn’t read it.
Watching you react to the Little Women quotes made me laugh so hard. It has been over a decade since I read the book but I do remember Louisa May Alcott coming in hard with her words.
@emmiereads when are you going to do video review of next book of vampire chronicles of Ann Rice vampire lestat if you have not already if you have witch video is it?
this website is so interesting! i literally stopped the video and went there to do a first quiz on my own and i would have gotten them all right (except for faulkner) if i didn't have to try multiple spellings of their names bc i know most of them in my native language only
3000% onboard for the stream idea. Please, kind lady, bless us! 🙏 I was so engrossed that I had completely forgotten this was a video and not a stream and I was just screaming Ayn Rand Atlas Shrugged Dagny Taggart/John Galt to the screen every time it came up. hehe.😄 Thank you for your content, Emma :) * curtsyssss out *
please read catch-22 it's my favorite war novel and one of my favorites of all time! very satirical, funny and devestatingly sad at the same time. and oh my gosh, slaughterhouse-five as well! another favorite war book, and i don't even like war books generally

I’ve been having the worst time recently with my panic disorder and your constant updates have taken my mind off it all, even for 20/30 mins (+ the wonderful new books I get to add to my wish list). Thank you, Emma 🩷
Absolutely loved that video. I do love your videos in general actually, but something about this was fun, relaxing, took me back to childhood sneaking the math games on my computer during school lecture, perfect vibes. And now, I want to read Little Women. I have always loved the movie (1994) and thought I didn’t need to read the book, but those quotes just made my heart melt and now I want to join you in this journey!!!!
Loved your reaction to Little Women. I LOVE Little Women (and Good Wifes, they kinda go hand-in-hand imo, so if you are getting the one, I recommen getting the other). This was a good fun vid :D
I loved this video! So much fun playing along with you! I read little woman in my last year of studying and grew instantly attached! I watched the movies afterwards and re read the book, wrote a paper on it. I was obsessed! Defo time to read little women! 😍 oh my gosh, yes! Please let us join you for trivia night! 🥳🤩
Tolkien's style is unmistakable. No one comes close & probably never will
Love love love.. loved ❤

I started reading it in APRIL and I cant get through it
omg a trivia stream would be so fun
yes this is indeed your sign to read Little Women, it's brilliant I love it
Loved the trivia video! Would totally watch more!!
Okay, now I got to read Little Wonem
no because Little Women is literally the backbone of my personality, i read it when i was very young and kept re-reading it (and its sequels) until I nearly knew it by heart, it forged me as a person and as a reader. You GOT to read and would love it, I feel like every young woman should
I highly recommend A Raisin in the Sun! It's very good!

Please read William Faulkner, Emma. He's so violent and poetic at the same time. 'The sound and the fury', 'Light in August', 'Absalom! Absalom!'
