I respect e-books and Audible, but for me, I need to FEEL the book in my hands, turn its pages, and even SMELL it, lmao... that may sound weird, yet I know I'm not alone in my love of tradition. But I don't look down on people who use other avenues to read. A good story is a good story, period, regardless of how it's absorbed! Read/Listen Away!!
Totally agree you can't replace that feeling! Plus for me especially second hand books,dunno if I am just weord but we'll thumbed and well read books are better!
I've written a non-fiction historical book, entitled, 'A Study Illuminating Nazi Justifications for Mass Murder.' .My name is Ayad Gharbawi, and I have written a book on the question of why Man is so easily inclined to commit acts ranging from legalised discrimination against the weakest members of its society - to outright genocide. In other words, my essay goes to the heart of the question of, ‘What causes a significant number of people in any society to be Evil against the Innocent?’ Most documentaries, studies, essays, and lectures; we rarely hear the words of the culprits themselves. It is remarkable when you think of the numbers of books on Hitler, the Third Reich, World War II, and the Holocaust - remarkable, is it not how low is the volume given by historians allowing us to hear the words of the killers themselves, that is, the Nazi perpetrators? In this essay, I seek to ‘understand’ the heart of the perpetrators, hearing their words ‘justifying’ what they did. I seek to understand what causes millions of men and women from all socio-economic and educational backgrounds to ardently and enthusiastically commit acts of unspeakable obscenities. In other words, such people could be you and I. What I found so fascinating is how each defendant created their ‘justification’ for mass murder. So, for example, some characters were strapping and robust; Goering was generally speaking jocular, sarcastic, witty, and at the same time, utterly realistic of his fate. Some characters were petrified to the point of seeming - or acting mad with fear - such as Ribbentrop and Hans Frank. Others produced the silliest explanations for their criminal deeds, men like Kaltenbrunner, the highest-ranking SS man in the docks. Reading their words ultimately inspired an entirely different portrait I had of these men precisely because few books on this subject matters allow us to hear their voices in-depth as I do. The ‘Why?’ is one of the more critical and relevant questions for human beings, supposedly moral creatures. After all, without knowing why humans behave in depraved ways, how can we understand ourselves, our minds? Rare is the book that seeks to answer the question of ‘Why did this evil happen?’ What caused millions of men and women from all socio-economic and educational backgrounds to ardently, willingly, and enthusiastically seek to commit acts of the most obscene nature? How would you and I have thought, felt, acted, and reacted had we been in Nazi Germany? How easy it is to curse, condemn, and spit at criminals; and yet how often do we place ourselves in the circumstances of the perpetrators? That is one reason why studying Nazi perpetrators affords us a unique example into the intricacies of their minds, and therefrom one hopes to ‘understand’ how they ‘rationalize’ their deeds of mass murder. In every murder case, I have always been most intrigued in getting to hear the words of the perpetrator, rather than the terms of the victims in question. That may sound insensitive, but to me, it seems fairly obvious how and why the families, spouses, friends, and colleagues of the murdered victims feel. That is why I am not so much interested in their story. What is not so bright is what on earth motivates a relatively sane, educated human being to commit mass murder? Moreover, this question must mesh with another untested and untried controversial question - is there a difference in the criminal attributes between state criminals and mass murderers such as Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, Charles Manson, and so on? In my book, I find commonalities between these two groups, the state-sponsored and non-state sponsored mass murderers, though, as I say and know, this is a highly contentious claim. After all, not everyone is confident in saying their president or prime minister is no different from a serial killer! Indeed, the question itself is often seen as absurd, if not comical. My Background - I am the grandson of an Iraqi Nazi war criminal, one who was a personal friend of Hitler and Dr. Goebbels and one who participated in the failed May 1941 coup. I grew up living within an extended family, household, and lifestyle wherein we were endlessly regaled by old German and other non-German Nazis. Furthermore, this is the most puzzling and challenging aspect of my background - I must confess it never crossed my mind in that what I now call the collective events of the Hitler Quadrumvirate - or ‘Hitler-Third Reich-WWII-Holocaust’ - were anything but crimes committed against our Fuehrer. Thus, it became my lifelong fascination seeking to understand this obsessive adoration of the Ubermenschen, while at the same time blinding out any criminalities the self-same so-called Aristotelian ‘virtuous man’ may not be so ‘virtuous at all. Kindest Regards - Ayad Gharbawi
@@Ayadxxify I would love to read your book! But is there any other playform where I can buy this book? Because amazon is barely used in my country? Do you also sell in bookstores by any chance?
@@potatoyoutube9225 Actually it is complicated. I wrote novels on a young, inexperienced woman interviewing Hitler because in his final days, the dictator trusts not one German to deliver his final words. Next, I've written several unpublished non-fiction manuscripts - 1. Understanding Hitler; 2. A Study of the Nazi perpetrators. I cannot take up too much of your space here, but if interested I can email you the texts. I'm not sure what interests you more, fiction or non-fiction? It is heavyweight on me because I've been rejected every time. They tell you, 'keep going on', but in my opinion, unless if you know a key influencer, you get nowhere. It is the same with my paintings [Egon Schiele-style]. If you do not know a gallery owner or a =n influential person, so you go nowhere. You can write the Bible or paint the Mona Lisa, but if you don't know the key, influential individuals, you get nowhere.
Mindhunter is a staple and one of my faves. Journey into darkness is another good book by John Douglas. Have you read anything by Robert Ressler? I recommend him if you haven't. A good one is whoever Fights Monsters. Happy bookworming! Love from Kerry in the e UK 💖
Brilliant! Honestly I was about to read "Mindhunter" again as I can't bring myself to read fiction most of the time. Actually, I could spend my audible credit if any of these are in audiobook format - I've just moved house and an audiobook while unpacking and cleaning and faffing about would be just perfect. Thank you Georgia! Love from Kerry (in Kent) 💞🌈💞
@@georgiamarie_ Yessss Georgia do it! If you can find journey into darkness as well that's also really good. You will finish mind hunter really fast because it's unputdownable 🙂
I loved this! It’s cool to see your sources for some of your videos because you are always educated on the cases or topics you cover. Do you include these things in the description of your videos? I would love to have access to sources you use so I can read along as you speak! 💕
Beyond Belief by Emlyn Williams (the first Moors Murders account), Helter Skelter by Vincent Bugliosi (Manson murders), and Down We Go Together by Jeff Guinn (Bonnie and Clyde) are all "must reads". Do yourself a big favour and add them to your no doubt already lengthy literary "to do" list.
I have dyslexia, while shopping for books must to go to audiobooks, or e-book with TTS enabled. I the case I 'm borrowing a book 📚 from local library.. I go for Libby app by Overdrive, available on Google store. Also works perfectly in partnership with London Library Consortium.🤓
Best Five...and there really is no argument...are in no order: In Cold Blood Helter Skelter Fatal Vision The Executioner's Song Under the Banner of Heaven Not sure I would classify your selection of And the Band Played On as a True Crime book...but it is amazing.
11. A book that should be written but to my knowledge hasn't been: Bhopal, the fight for justice, would be about the Union Carbide Battery Plant leak of December 1984 that killed about 6000 people and forever disabled others, the worst industrial accident in history. The CEO of Union Carbide was never charged and was sheltered from all prosecution by the US. The victims never received any compensation. Incredibly this tragedy is mostly forgotten despite being worse than Chernobyl or Fukushima. The saying about Bhopal was that your life depended on which way the wind was blowing the cyanide.
I can really recommend "The devil's butcher shop" by Roger Morris. It's the true story of a prison uprising written in a critical, well researched and compassionate way.
Would you ever consider doing a video on the west memphis 3? Its a very controversial case even to this day because people are still divided on whether or not the people who were imprisoned and eventually freed were the ones who were responsible. It hits very close to home for me and I am still obsessed with it even though the last update i remember seeing about it was the suspected killers being freed.
In Cold Blood was my first true Crime book. I read it in the 70's when I was a teenager and I've been hook on true crime ever since. The Onion Field by Joseph Wambaugh is another great classic.
I've read a number of true crime books, but the one that really sticks in the mind is Murder At The Farm by Paul Foot. I think it's a must for anyone interested in true crime. It tells the story of paperboy Carl Bridgwater's murder in the West Midlands. Superbly written by the highly experienced journalist Paul Foot (nephew of Michael Foot). It makes you intrigued, frustrated and angry all at the same time. I cannot recommend it enough.
I know I'm a little late on this video (a couple years late 😅😂) but I just had to pop in to say that I absolutely loved the Radium Girls!! I read it years ago and it was so infuriating yet captivating and I just loved it so much!
Hi so does anyone remember this video that Georgia made; I’ve been looking for a few days now and still can’t find it. It was about a case where girls would go missing like nothing happened; they would be taken out of their yard and the hose was still on or the swing was still moving or something, and then it was revealed it was a man abducting them with a tiny gun? Does anyone remember that? I can’t find the video and it’s killing me

Mindhunter by John Douglas (a staple for true crime addicts). Whoever Fights Monsters by Robert Ressler. Mr Nice by Himself. The five minute mysteries series by ken Weber. These are full of crimes and mysteries to be solved by reading a short narrative. I found them to be pretty challenging and a lot of fun.
Dear Georgia, I know this is easy to say but hard to do but please start a second channel, dedicated to books. Just a thought. I know it would be a tremendous amount of work but I know you love reading x x x brilliant video xxxx
When this video came out I read all these books you recommended! They are still some of the best/my favorites I've ever read! Do you have a good reads??
Yes, OH YES. I am so excited with this! True crime books with Georgia! 😍📚 Also I’m sure it’s redundant because almost everyone in the true crime community knows, Mind Hunter by John Douglas is outstanding for understanding serial killer psychology and the pioneers of using psychology and profiling in criminal cases.
I love these videos! I read In a Dark, Dark Woods by Ruth Ware thank to you and I enjoyed it a lot. Than I recommened it to my grandmother and she had a good time reading it too. 🥰🥰
Yay! I love your book recommendations! I bought a kindle and got kindleunlimited from your recommendations and I’ve read more this past year than I have since my childhood 💖💖 I have one critique though.. can we see more pony content please 🐴🐴
For anyone who read "And the Band Played On", I would highly recommend "How to Survive a Plague" by David France, published in 2016. It is the best book I've read in the last 10 years, and one of the 5 best books I've ever read. It is the heartbreaking and infuriating story of the gay community's fight for drugs and treatment for HIV/AIDS from the very earliest days of the AIDS crisis. Not only was France part of that community who knew all the biggest movers and shakers within the community. He is also one of the lucky few who contracted HIV in the 80's, and is still alive today. I've read the book 3 times already...this is a story about true heroes. People who were forced to fight their own government and the drug companies for the drugs they needed to stay alive.
Have you seen the film? I first watched it when I was in the midst of dealing with a very painful medical condition and felt so hopeless. The film gave me so much hope.
@@lynncrf I haven't seen the movie, but I keep going back to read the book because it is a story of such courageous and strong people. If the movie is as impactful as the book, I can understand why it would affect you so deeply. I'm glad that it was able to get you through a difficult time, and that it gave you hope. I think France loves knowing how much his book has meant to people...a story of absolute hopelessness and despair and fear turned into a story of heroes and triumph and hope. I hope you have recovered from your medical condition, and I hope the story of those brave people continues to inspire you and give you hope. ♥️♥️
@@Terri_MacKay I didn't know there was a book, actually. Thanks for letting me know. Unfortunately I have a chronic infection and it flare up when under stress. As with the AIDS crisis the doctors have basically left people with this condition to rot - with many dying by suicide. However, people with the condition are rising up and driving forward research. Hence why I found the film so inspiring as we are in a similar situation. Thanks for your lovely comment.
Please please read Teathered by Amy McKinnon, its an older fiction book but its great and I would love to hear your opinion on it, it must be pretty unknown because no one I've spoken to has ever read it!
I respect e-books and Audible, but for me, I need to FEEL the book in my hands, turn its pages, and even SMELL it, lmao... that may sound weird, yet I know I'm not alone in my love of tradition.

I've read the book 3 times already...this is a story about true heroes. People who were forced to fight their own government and the drug companies for the drugs they needed to stay alive.
Have you seen the film? I first watched it when I was in the midst of dealing with a very painful medical condition and felt so
hopeless. The film gave me so much hope.
@@lynncrf I haven't seen the movie, but I keep going back to read the book because it is a story of such courageous and strong people. If the movie is as impactful as the book, I can understand why it would affect you so deeply.
I'm glad that it was able to get you through a difficult time, and that it gave you hope. I think France loves knowing how much his book has meant to people...a story of absolute hopelessness and despair and fear turned into a story of heroes and triumph and hope.
I hope you have recovered from your medical condition, and I hope the story of those brave people continues to inspire you and give you hope. ♥️♥️
@@Terri_MacKay I didn't know there was a book, actually. Thanks for letting me know.
Unfortunately I have a chronic infection and it flare up when under stress. As with the AIDS crisis the doctors have basically left people with this condition to rot - with many dying by suicide. However, people with the condition are rising up and driving forward research. Hence why I found the film so inspiring as we are in a similar situation.
Thanks for your lovely comment.
I'm listening to One of Your Own at the moment.
Please please read Teathered by Amy McKinnon, its an older fiction book but its great and I would love to hear your opinion on it, it must be pretty unknown because no one I've spoken to has ever read it!
Killing for Company and The Shrine of Jeffrey Dahmer, both by Brian Masters were both fantastic.
Yay!! I love your book videos 😊
And the Band played on is a awesome book and yes a book to be seen today's issues
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE TURN IT UP
The fact that you didn't mention a single John E Douglas book here says another about your true crime knowledge...
Nice work 🏆🏆🏆
