@@kimbarbeaureads Yesss, I've never seen that cover before, but: some height? dark&moody? f*cken WIMDY?? it HAD to be :)) (&other WH editions I've seen had a similar place on their cover)
CarolynMarie: "You know how Virginia Woofl would take tea and toast in the cottage/home she was living in with all the bright colors and the Marc Chagall paintings she had hung by the fireplace?" Emma: "No".
The Wuthering Heights edition had me fooled. I didn't recognize that that's a house on the top and immediately thought, "is this Lord of the Rings?" because I thought it was Mount Doom. 😂😂
Watching both now I understand the difference of a cover to attract attention and a cover for those who've already read but want a special edition of it.
I feel your pain Emma, I had only seen like two of these cover editions before 😅 Maybe try some more mainstream paperback versions next time. Love the videos with Carolyn btw
This was so much fun! You two are a great duo and I love your videos together (and apart!) I was playing along and was literally yelling "A Room WITH A VIEWWW" 😄 Those covers weren't the easiest but you did great!
this is hilarious! I'm also an editions girlie, so I had seen almost all of these before! one of my favorite covers- the one that comes to mind instantly- is the Modern Library edition of Madame Bovary. I'm a sucker for watercolor illustrations!
A mostly fluff video like this depends on the players to make it watchable and entertaining. Emma and Carolyn are both lovely and charming and funny and have good chemistry together. Fun to watch. Thanks ladies.
i really like the cover of annihilation farrar straus and girox edition, the way the title is separated into four three-letter lines is cool, the plant-thing and the dragonfly are drawn in a really nice style, and the book itself feels very nice to hold (the texture of paper.. the textures on the cover... oh its great). it also was a miracle to find in a thrift shop bc i dont live anywhere near english speaking countries i also really like the designs of all the books by макс фрай by the publisher амфора. the main two series are very clearly distinguished by the main colours of the covers (orange and green) and the little black illustrations they put on each book are fantastic imo
Because of you I started a book club at work and our 2nd book is Frankenstein in Baghdad and everyone is so excited to read it but most of my books on my list have been because of you and your book recs, thank you 🫶🏽
I'm just like Carolyn x) I don't buy a book until I go through every single edition that was ever published and then probably wouldn't be able to decide either and end up getting two instead of just one!
Obscure editions but 9 of them i actually recognised, so much more difficult than Emmas pick for sure though. Because of the weird Karamazov cover at first i thought the Perfect Chemistry romance one was going to be an obscure Romeo and Juliet version haha
I noted Carolyn is obssessed with covers. I'd be too, but unfortunately we mostly have penguin classics where I live and some classics are not even available. So, my main focus is getting the book in whatever the cover.
Loved this challenge (i followed along and also failed miserably haha) i was wondering emma about how you pick which books to annotate? Ive seen in some of your videos that some books you read and annotate and others you dont at all, i was wondering why is that and how do you choose?
I only got 4 of these lmao. In my defence, I've never seen any of these editions and some covers could work for a number of books, but I did get the ones giving clues to the actual story -------------------- (spoilers, I guess: ---------------------------------------- Great expectations, Wuthering heights, A clockwork orange :))) tho I was incredulous lol, and Dune... there were a couple more that were 'cluesy' but I haven't read them)
omg i strategically clicked on this video first bc most of the other videos it seems like you filmed emma’s video and then carolyn’s but now u switched it up on me oh noo
I only got _A Clockwork Orange_ because it looked too orange to be a Japanese Sun. I've never seen any of the others. _Under the Volcano_ was my first guess for _Wuthering Heights_, but I would have been surprised if that was what it was based on the clues. The first two rooms did not feature a room... good thing A Room of One's Own did.

Me yelling "Wuthering Heights" at the screen like it's the Superbowl. Lol

I thought the same, was sure it was Lord of the Rings😅 As someone from Yorkshire, the moors don't look as mountainous as that so it threw me off
First thought as well :)) but second thought was WH

‘ew is this the alchemist’ (respectfully) 😭
Omg the Wuthering Heightsone was so obvious! I havent seen that cover before in my life but immediately guessed it!
Wuthering Hieghts was my first guess, but then 4 other books came to mind almost immediately. Love that cover.
I've never see that cover before, but it was so obvious it was Wuthering Heigths!
@@mcmoon_ I thought that as well!!

i guessed wuthering heights so fast, the vibes are there for sure!
I love this challenge between you two and the fact that you let us participate as well. I got a few more this time. Love the Wuthering Heights cover 🤩
Also love the matching clothes

Most of my classics are obscure and torn editions I find while thrifting so I've never seen any of these. I was so lost during the whole video 😂😂😂😂
The Wuthering Heights book really gave me Hobbit vibes hah

'ew is this the alchemist?' fully sent me 🤣
Yelling Wuthering Heights at the computer screen!!! tough covers to guess!

I read it too thanks to emma definitely it is an amazing book❤
Not so bad, Emma! So fun! I miss these videos with Carolyn already! ❤😅
I adore how your outfits are matching!
OMG Perfect Chemistry. The way that I identified that one immediately even though it’s been years since I read it.
There were 4 I instantly got. This was so much fun, I love seeing the way cover art interprets the books

Could never guess any of those. Poor Emma.
Our hosts' literary erudition is surpassed only by their cute haircuts.
PLEASE MAKE MORE OF THESE!
Ah, the Reads sisters are back 😊
I got way too excited when I got wuthering heights right
Ok I'm kind of proud rightfully guessing Virgina Woolf, I'll definitely read her one day
For the Wuthering Heights one I thought it was Frankenstein 😅
I'm watching after quite a while. Loved it. Loved how terrible Emma did 😂
I have that edition of A Clockwork Orange!! I love the cover so much 😆
I only got 4 of these lmao. In my defence, I've never seen any of these editions and some covers could work for a number of books, but I did get the ones giving clues to the actual story -------------------- (spoilers, I guess: ---------------------------------------- Great expectations, Wuthering heights, A clockwork orange :))) tho I was incredulous lol, and Dune... there were a couple more that were 'cluesy' but I haven't read them)
Carolyn
Hell yeah I knew all the covers !!!! 😂🤓
GREAT EXPECTATIONS, Emma! lol. There were some tough ones in there though!
I guessed Great Expectations. Some of these other ones had me fooled. I don't really have any interest in reading the Alchemist either. haha!
Blame the cover designer
since im early imma remind emma that she has an asmr channel :D
I guessed like three of them at all hahaha the rest I'd never seen before. Really curious about Carolyn's video now!
The only ones I got were A Clockwork Orange and Dune.
take a shot everytime carolyn says "Isn't it [insert compliment]"
this is so fun !♡♡
me at home screaming : THE BELL JAR!!!
I guessed Wuthering Heights and....that's about it 🤣🤣🤣🤣👀👀👀📙📙📙🐛🐛🐛
These covers are pretty, but I have never seen them ever XD
Carolyn WHY 😂😂😂
it's so funny to me that wuthering heights was so obvious
I also would have guessed "The Little Prince" on that cover.
Have you read ice station by Matthew Reilly ?
I only got Dune and Pride and Prejudice 😂
Nooo Wuthering Heights is so easy 😂 I have to say most of the covers are difficult
i only got great expectations cause im reading it right now hahah!
I'm shook, I got most of them right
wuthering hight were kinda tuff though
The only one I guessed right is The Bell Jar 😄
These are really hard 😅
Love it 😂😂
I guess Great Expectations and I thought the Wuthering cover was Moby Dick
well that was brutal, I only got one right lol, in the other one I got 6 right xD
Yayyy 🥺✨
Another video
A surprise to be sure but a welcome one
omg i strategically clicked on this video first bc most of the other videos it seems like you filmed emma’s video and then carolyn’s but now u switched it up on me oh noo
😂 funny!
Sorry To Hear That, You Could've Guessed Correctly.
How do you not know these covers? Surely if you buy books, you should know?
❤👍👌❤️

_Under the Volcano_ was my first guess for _Wuthering Heights_, but I would have been surprised if that was what it was based on the clues.

Is it me or do these two ladies have some subdued microaggression between them? :O
just you lol
