I personally enjoy classics the most because they take you to all this different time periods and you can see development of cultures and literature 📚📚📚
I havent left a single video by you Emma. I absolutely adore your book recommendations. Trust me I am reading Natalie Hayes, CJ Sampson and Circe right now 📚
Thank you for this wonderful video! I've been watching your channel for more than a year now, and all of your videos are entertaining and so informative! My reading list is already embarrassingly long, and it won't stop growing any time soon. Hopefully, I keep spending more and more time on reading instead of staring at my phone, yet I never miss your video 📚
📖📘📜📚 Is this how you do it? I've never heard of most of those authors. I had heard of Virginia Woolfe. Hearing her name sparks a memory. I read a Virginia Woolf book back before I understood what sexual orientations were. I was raised in a very conservative homeschool family so I got to college and people were using terms I didn't know like LGBT. Then I took a literature class and probably didn't pick up on much of the books because of my innocence. I was so confused. You taught me just now that she was bisexual. That makes more sense. Thanks!
📚 There's a wierd reference that I love, one character in Jane eyre is written to clearly show signs of dyspraxia. Really nice as this issues is still rarely written about, despite being nearly as common as dyslexia. I'm also super surprised none of highsmith's books turned up. Writing a book with happy gay characters in the 50s was fairly brave, ands her writing quality was top notch

What an exciting opportunity!! I love classic books 📚 and I’m gaining so much more respect for classical writers 📖. Thank you for making that possible. 💙
So many beautiful books, so little time . 📖📖📖📖📖📖📖📖📖📖📖📖📖 Books really do make life more wonderful by showing us the scope of all the endless forms that it can take ❤️
Great video! Of the 10, I have only read The Importance of Being Earnest. I was lucky enough to study it at school. Thankyou for sharing these...and increasing my TBR by 9! 😂 📚📚📚
📙📘📗📕 I’d like to enter the giveaway! Discovered new books I’d never heard of watching this video and I enjoyed the tidbits about authors as well. Thanks!
Not exactly a rec as I haven't actually read it yet but I'm SO excited to read Maurice by EM Forster which is about two guys falling in love but it wasn't published until a year after the author died 📚🏳️🌈
I love this as a concept, and learned a lot!! Love not only the racial and gender diversity, but the chronic illness rep :) Was going to copy a book emoji here, but I guess I'm ineligible as a non-UK resident. (note to Pan Mac, bc I know this is totally out of Emma's hands: consider expanding that. Other booktubers-who *dont* have the full force of an entire publishing company behind them-host international giveaways).
Hi @quirkydee45, because different publishers have rights for books in different territories, these are our standard terms and conditions - we're sorry we can't include overseas viewers in the giveaway, but we hope you understand why ☺️
Ashamed to say I'd heard of less than half of these! So I definitely feel that means I am highly deserving of the books to improve my knowledge, cancel the giveaway and just send them to me??? 📚

I'd really like to win those books! 📚
I thought of another diver's classics: 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea!
📚📚 Wow I can't believe that I have only read one of the books you spoke about.
Great book suggestions! I also recommend I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings (Maya Angelou) and The Bell Jar (Sylvia Plath.)
