jack rly out there living all of our main character dreams of having a crisis then moving to paris in his 20s to start a new life..........god has favourites
best comment of the year !
literally 🥲
Truly
Then meet a new hot guy who's working as a chef in a French Restaurant?
or! He's like strolling around Paris then meet this mysterious person, but then he meet them just by walking around Paris and talking about their lives
"COVID did the world tour that I wanted to be on" is an underrated line and I'm still not over it
Lol loved it
that was literally me though. Covid started during my exchange semester in Canada so I couldn’t even do anything😭 I paid quite a bunch just to stay inside for months😀
The way Jack speaks is so intelligent without making others feel condescending.
We all stan Jack Edwards!
Making other people feel condescending would mean they would feel superior, the opposite of the point you're making. Yes, I understand the irony of this comment.
Speaking so intellkgently is one if the main reasons why i want to read more!
@@kb5509 we stan a self-aware queen
Yoo assamese gurll!!
Yessssss
you’ve quite literally got a smile that can light up this whole town
And I haven’t seen it in a while since she brought u down
@@suzyani474 you say you're fine, I know you better than that
@@beyzaataman2359 what you doing with a girl like that?
akrillyx she wears high heels👠
I wear sneakers
not me crying at how maturely he talks about the breakup. stop it you're going to restore my faith in men jack 👁️👁️
He's a man written by a woman 😭
I know right
plss ahha same
@@muskaan3711 😂 that's so true
The bar is terribly low
writing a novel about something he's loved for years? it's okay, jack. you can say you're writing a book of puns 😌
HAHAHAHAH i would actually buy...
Or hummus

I started reading after a 4 year slump because of you I finished 3 books in 2 weeks!!🥰
Amazing progress!!
Great job !
May I ask which ones? :) (looking for inspiration)
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
you're doing amazing, keep it up!!!!
JACK'S FINALLY GONNA TELL US THINGS
you talked about your relationship and your ex girlfriend in such a mature and kind way. wishing you two the best, honestly, I hope you're both happy. and enjoy Paris, it's a really beautiful city! also can't wait to read your book in the future :D
Jack saying he's writing a novel about something he's loved for years... is it greek mythology related ?!
is it hummus
@@katiarodriguez5015 LMFAO
As someone who is neurodivergent, you have my dream job. It sounds absolutely fantastic just consuming random facts the whole day
Right? I want that kind of job 😂
I was thinking the same thing. I guess I'll look into jobs in publishing.
I was literally thinking it too
Feeling this😍😭
Same, Jack is literally living my dream life.
OMG i wanna have an ex to describe in such warm and sweet words our relationship. Thank you for sharing!
I ran into you in Paris & didn’t want to bother you while you were having dinner !
And now i regret not saying hi ahaha
Jack, your words "I will always look back at that relationship as a really happy special thing" breaks a part of my heart.
Jack talking about his love for books is so beautiful, I can't even.
Wat! Me! Little old me?! 🙂👵🏼 glad that shoutout means we get hangouts when I visit Paris next 😌✌🏼
jack is writing another book-
*screams internally*
WOOHOOO
Spoiler Alert: Jack may or may not be writing a book.
the kids r good thx for asking jack
We really love Alex moving to Paris and thriving.
Whoever he is…
I find it so calming to just watch you answer random questions, like actually catching up to a friend you haven’t seen in a while
Find you a man who talks about his ex as positive & civil as Jack, such a green flag! Congrats on embarking a new journey! Your vibrant energy is inspiring 😊
the way that jack talks about his ex girlfriend is so sweet, wishing the best for them both
I have been kinda in a slump mentally lately, with uni stuff and my insecurities towards my skills but at some point during your video i just had a moment of motivation burst from just listening to you and i’m gonna try to overcome it, thank you Jack!! i’ll be waiting for more vlogs!!
I love his maturity and responses!
Jack is definitely a man written by a woman
Fr! Also, I'm ryujin biased so hiii
I love this description lol
"I think it's just woven into my internal tapestry" okay lyricist okay jack Taylor's version
funny how you think by moving to paris, you'll get rid of the mouse like, have we not watched ratatouille? that's remy's gang's HQ.
You do seem good, Jack, and even as a more casual viewer I'm really happy about that! Pu-pu, you have a nice smile, keep it that way, man
People really do need to go out there and experience new stuff, this pandemic's been hard for everyone but maybe things are getting better. Thank you for making videos like this from time to time, book ones especially, too. Someone in the comments mentioned how you've re-sparked their joy for reading books again and you glow when you talk about that so I've also experienced that. :)
Just found this channel and been bingewatching the whole day, making notes on books I missed and have to read. Love it. Thank you. Stay sane.
The first video I watched on this channel was about you writing your thesis in a week. I related so much that I kept watching (and enjoying) all the other videos too. And despite the fact that I have such a different life, I relate with so many of the things that you do and talk about. I always look forward to your videos :)
You’re just giving me major comfy vibes. Love what you do and watching your videos. You just make me proud also studying literature in an economicly driven world
i hope alex has as a good time in paris (if they have moved there) as you seem to have
Found your channel last year during quarantine and really loved it, you’ve really inspired me to read again since difficult for me as a dyslexic. Love you 💕💕
the way you spoke about your breakup, and the situation you both were in is so similar to mine. my heart is so warm seeing how maturely you have spoken and handled your break up. both of you are stars. i am wishing both of you the best
your channel has made me get back my love for books again, ive used to be such a bookworm and just got absorbed in the different stories
also paris is such a wonderful city, one of my favorites honestly, i hope you have a wonderful time there!
I didn't know you moved!! That is so cool!! Also, loved bumping into you in Paris a few weeks ago!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Your optimism brings joy to my heart.
The WAY that Jack's eyes light up when he talks about how much he loves books 🤩🤩
i’m so incredibly jealous but at the same time so incredibly happy for you jack!! live your best life like the absolute king you are 🖤
I just found your channel and now obsessed with you! You’re amazing and I’m excited to be part of your journey :)
You look so happy! You’ve always looked like an optimistic person, but specially now in this video. I really love to watch you and your smile because I feel like you’re so different from me (I’m generally a serious person). Thank you for keep on producing videos and I wish you all the best that life can give you! The world is yours!
Thank you for sharing about your break up, me and my partner of 3 years split up last week and it was also v amicable we just wanted different things, and we also want to stay friends, so hearing someone share that that can work has really helped me. Thank you 💜
Stopped reading for 2 years because of uni workloads but your channel has made me rediscover and fall in love with reading again. So so excited to read your novel! x
I think the thing with books for me is that it encompasses so many different subjects, you can read books on history, politics, philosophy - absolutely anything and any culture. Im nowhere near a lit student, but i love reading and i think thats why books are so amazing.
After years of watching your videos, it was finally time that I am applying for university and so I sent it on Monday and already have 3 offers and an interview next week!! Thank you so much for everything
Would love to see videos where you go into more detail on the publishing world, what roles are available and what a day in the life for a research assistant looks like for you!
been stanning the margiela ring purely for fashion's sake, but I love the story to it! it's lovely imbuing daily wears with meaning and getting a guaranteed smile from something small but consistently there
Sadly, I had to rewatch a couple of times because I just could not take my eyes off the graphic that you have in the background! ❤ Kudos from Poland ❤ I always love watching your content and hope that everything will go smoothly for you in your new place.
Im going through a similiar amicable break up rn and I'm so happy to hear that you've managed to retain a friendship still!! We're trying for that too int he future.. All the best to you
I’m SO happy you watched Pose!!! It’s fucking amazing, and the cast is honestly *chef’s kiss*.
I’m also an Emma Chamberlain fan, have been since the days she still made videos at her parent’s house, so seeing the way she and her content have evolved over the years kinda warms my heart. That girl would be one talented filmmaker.
P.s. we love the beard and mustache
Yessssss jack, during the pandemic I took up reading again. And your videos have made me so much more excited about reading! Not only that, but I have found some of my favourite books through you!!
11 has always been my favorite number too!! So glad to hear you’re doing well and very much looking forward to seeing everything you’ll be putting out in the future 😊
Pose is literally one of my favourite series. It deserves more recognition! The characters might be stuck in my head forever...
"she kinda edits like she's the sole survivor of the apocalypse" why is this the most accurate thing ever about emma chamberlain
You are literally my reason why I love the British English language in human form! Your accent and the way you use words is the exact reason I love English! Everytime I watch your videos I am so grateful to 13-year old self for choosing the bilingual course at my secondary school! You are amazing!
I completely relate to the idea of books being insurmountable! I love that there are endless options with reading and you can never be finished with them! 📚📚📚
So glad you loving France! The way you want to travel is really inspiring! Love and support from the south west of France
Love listenning to you talking about books and seeing you so passionate about it ! These are some of my favorite French novels (just in case and if you haven't already read them), I'll put the titles in French: La Dame aux Camélias by Alexandre Dumas (son), Le Guetto Intérieur by Santiago Amigorena and Claire de Femme by Romain Gary. La Dame aux Camélias is the book that made fall in love with literature. I am happy you are having a good time in Paris, it gets beautiful during Christmas time !
omg his little giggle that he does every now and then in between his words is so cute
having a job that you really like and are passionate about, that... that is just too beautiful.
As someone who has gone through the exact same thing with my ex, IN JUNE, I feel u majorly. Sending love to you xxx
Since it’s a pandemic, I’m assuming you’re mostly thinking of Living in different places in Europe, in which case I highly recommend Lisbon! As someone who has traveled a lot, it is definitely my favorite city in Europe. It is so incredibly beautiful, safe, so much history and different people, so much life and the most wonderful people, AND there is SO MUCH TO DO. Easily the most underrated city in Europe. I would maybe recommend it more towards spring because the areas around Lisbon in Portugal are just beautiful empty sand beaches and mountains and all which is probably nicer with warmer weather
As a Portuguese woman living in London, you just made me miss my city so damn much! 😭❤
@@aportugueseknitter2338 Well We can go together, such an amazing place. I want to go back and see more of Portugal as well. I’M considering moving there, but I don’t have a job Where I can work from a distance😩
I agree, but I live in Lisbon so I'm biased 🤭
Just please make sure you move to Lisbon in a somewhat (I understand that it's hard) sustainable way. Rent is crazy and super not accessible to people here and it's very much (but not only) because of foreigners renting airbnbs and temporary rental places at huge prices.
If you're staying here for tourism please consider one of the amazing hostels/hotels we have in the city 🥰
ahh may I suggest Porto also? maybe I'm biased (because it's my home city) but it's a really beautiful place too
@@jessmoony Porto é o melhor, não há comparação com Lisboa 😂
I just discovered you yesterday and I have been binging. I am a literature student who does not read much at all and your book review videos are really helpful. I literally read the entirety of 'Before the coffee goes cold' yesterday because of you.
i’m so proud of you for making this video jack
🥰
i have been so excited for this q&a! thank you jack
This motivates me so much as a literature student!!! Glad you are having so much fun!!!
Love this video, and you overall. You inspire me to do what I want to do and also to continue to read and write. Wish you all the best♥️
Sooo excited to watch!! I feel guilty now for asking when this video was coming on your second channel 😅
Jack’s positive energy is contagious!
"It's just woven in my internal tapestry" Wow ! Really nicely put ! This boy knows how to write ! Also... you're in Paris ! I live here too, so now I will just be looking around hoping to see you ^^ If you go in the fifth arrondissement, you should check the pizzeria Golosino, and the rue mouffetard, with all the nice and cheap restaurants ;) there is also the Abbey bookshop which is an amazing place to get lost in !
I also moved to Paris in September! I’m so glad you love the city as much as I do✨
i always learn something about books, about life from jack's amazing videos. i love your videos jack!
"I'm never really truly alone because I always have you guys"😭😭😭😭😭 I love you Jack.
I was actually quite concerned when I saw your last video (about adulting) and wanted to reach out but didn't know what to say but I'm glad you seem to be doing better. You do always have us and I personally support everything you need to do to feel better (even if it means less content 😭) but just remember that you truly are never alone. Reach out to people you love when you're feeling under the weather people who have known you since you were a kid and have that kind of unconditional undying love for you no matter how long you stay apart (there's usually one or two people in a lifetime like that but you're lucky if you do have them!). Stay well Jack❤️ (or try your best staying well!)
PS: sometimes that person is your mum and that's okay!
Its so good to see you this happy. Good vibes all the way
Jack you are so kind and thank you for allowing us a peek into your life. i live in Singapore and dream of the day i get to go to London again, we had a trip planned right before the pandemic happened… (would be so cool to get to bump into you!) i hope you stay well and i look forward to more videos! sending love from my tiny island 💕
I’ve just found your channel and i am OBSESSED. You seem like such a genuinely nice guy! I wish you all the happiness in Paris 🌷✨🌇
this is the highlight of my day and it’s not even out yet
When the question about your favorite YT channel came I thought you'd say Jack in the Books, idk... he just seems like someone with the same vibe as you ... somehow😂
wow i really missed a trick here
Thank you for the update. Happy New Year! I hope it is filled with all the best.
u are awesome....since I discovered your channel in May I read already 20 books....forever grateful.....and holy moly that mouse story was wild I can't stop imagining in my head
Welcome to France 💜 I hope you enjoy Paris and get to visit the rest of the country too. :) Sincerely, a french follower. 🇨🇵
I don't know if I want a friend like Jack or if I want to BE like Jack, good vibes radiating off
omggg i love love pose!!!! it's so underrated thanks for sharing jack!
Im very much happy for you. You genuinely seem happy, your smile speaks and brights by itself. I hope the french experience provides you everything you're looking for and the new and different things that will help you to evolve and improve as human and writer. You're amazing, btw. Next time you want to move somewhere, we are very welcoming in Spain!! Love xoxo
Ahhhh Jack I’m honestly so happy for you 🥺💛
😂 Pan-demilavato, Pfizer Chief.
You light up when you talk about books and literature. I love that.
Shame on your breakup. Glad you remained cordial.
that video made me so happy!!! thank you for your positive energy
Thank you for always cheering me up! 💜Yesterday I failed and exam and I've been a bit down in the dumps
Imagine how lucky you are to go through a breakup during Red release week
Totally missed the q&a but in case you see this I'd love to know more about your job (no private details ofc). I'd love to do research for a living but as a history student I'm kind of lost when it comes to the publishing industry and have no idea where to start and what skills I need, what would make me stand out, what the day to day is like etc.
Love your Paris content so far and I appreciate how mindful and respectful you are of your private life online.
If you haven't seen, he's done a video called 'day in the life of a book research assistant'. I would be interested in more videos on how to get into that kind of job as well though!
@@redwineandagingerale thanks so much!! omw to watch that video :)
wow, haven't watched the video yet but your channel had really become something big, i've been watching your video since there was like more than 100k subscribers, and now look at that growth. Love your videos Jack!
This was very nice, like a chat with a friend. I'm glad you are overall happy and that life's been sweet to you! You're in my favorite city AND we have the same lucky/favorite number - c'est magnifique, non?
I can't wait for this q and a 🥰
this video just made me even more excited to hopefully be able to work with books and with other people who love books after university!! it would be an absolute dream
it makes me so happy that you just go and get it and do your thing and live your dreams, wow, that's very inspiring! Bravo :D
i just noticed that you speak super fast but everything is understandable thanks to your articulations!
your remarks and your choice of words are intelligent but still accessible, I don't know how you do it but it's hypnotizing
ugh i just love the way you talk!!!
(english is not my mother tongue, that's why I was making the remark aha)
it makes me so happy that you like Paris, and that the city inspires you, you seem to really like it !!!
Jack is one of the poeple that I find SO intelligent in not an intimidating way. It's actually so inspiring.
This is literally what happened to my girlfriend and I.. uni ended, the pandemic happened and the world just went to shit, and so did our mental health 😂 now that we are no longer together, we are still best friends and both in the happiest place ever, and our bond has actually become even more special!
I'm so glad you are well Jack, honestly, you are thriving honey ❤️❤️❤️
I am so excited at Jack's upcoming book!!! I cannot wait to read it when it comes out 🥺
i just started an undergrad in history at edinburgh this year and it’s amazing!!! i honestly think you’d love it here
