Such display of exuberance... if you ever find "The Man who was magic" by Paul Gallico" from 1966 well, I believe you would love it... it's pretty short, kinda light, but really is packed with deep wisdom, well what else from the mid sixties? You are so inspiring! From the beautiful Oregon Coast, wishing you well, AL
Quite ironic that construction noise came when you were talking about humanity's cyclical greed leading to destruction of nature.
Yes
My girl emma you never have to apologise for talking about books we love love love love lonnngggg videos from you it makes me feel like i know you❤
One of my dogs died today so you have no idea how much this video will cheer me up. Thank you Emma!

Your dog loves you❤️ hugs
So sorry to hear this, I know your pain :((( very best wishes, be kind to yourself xx

You know what I love about you is your range. Other than extreme horror or horror in general you have an outstanding palate. I’ve learned to give books a try when I never would’ve. Thank you

Your voice is so calming!! Its so nice hearing you gush about books you love. I really appreciate the variety of books you have- it shows that you are a lover of story and know that genre or medium doesn't a great story make!
Especially pointing out middle-grade books! Im curious about your opinions on The Series of Unfortunate Events! LOOVED that series growing up and I want to reread it again so bad. I remember feeling really seen for some reason. Felt like such an important book for kids by showing them they could survive hardships and that adults and society can be absolutely stupid. WAHH i loved it~
New to the channel so sorry if you've already talked about it in another video!
CLOUD ATLAS!! I will never shut up about that book. Made me feel closer to my fellow humans. Beautiful stuff

All of Mitchell's books have stayed with me. That's a unique experience for me. I have only to his name as author & I'd grab it.
whatever emma recommends, it's always an auto-buy, and auto-read for me 🤝
It's a good list, I've read 3 o 5 books you mentioned, and i loved them all, so thanks ❤ also I love the idea that I was kind of present when some of the books became your favorites 😊💕
I stumbled onto your channel by accident and I'm absolutely entranced by the way you speak and express yourself. We have very different reading styles but you make me want to read all of it ⭐
I love hearing people talk about their favourite books! This was a lovely video 😃
Love how diverse you 5* list is! I've read many good books thanks to you!
My all time favourite author is Paul Auster ( New York Trilogy and Oracle's Night, but i've read them ALL), also Ernst Junger - Eumeswil, Anne of Green Gables - Montgomery, Lost Connections - Johann Haris (non-fiction about depression, so good!), Paulo Coelho - The Pilgramage.
Love to you Emma

Hi Emma... I actually made it to the end of your lengthy video. Thank you for posting your favourite five star reads. I expanded my TBR collection today based on a few of your recommendations, which keep popping up.
i feel like i need to set aside a month to just get through the emmie reading list because ive been meaning to read so many of these books for a couple years at this point
I’m a new reader can you suggest me few books to read? Actually i was reading a lot of books during my school years but later fell off from that habit but i came back to reading novels after Silent patient. Can you suggest me novels which is like a thriller,Twists and turn or you can call it suspense or Adventure type books. These 3 are my favourite genres
tysm for the long video emma omg you immediately made my day better and tysm for all this recs, also as a colombian i always oddly proud to see you talk about a 100 years of solitude.
my five stars would be the spear cuts through water, the hunchback of notre dame and the grandmaster of demonic cultivation
FIRST OFF YOU WERE SORELY MISSED
SECONDLY SO MANY MORE BOOK RECS FOR ME
thank you for cataloging all this in one place 🙏❤️♥️
🩵🩵 haha trying to fit the whole catalogue into one video was hard!
@@emmiereads but thanks for doing so anyways also a bit unrelated but my first video on my channel will be a bit delayed due to personal stuff like applying for college my results came and I scored a 97 in English which is basically 100% but they never give full marks for language so I'm really hopeful other than great videos from you as always
this video has made my day, love your videos emma!!!
my top five books!! ⭐️
- alias grace by margaret atwood
- fingersmith by sarah waters
- the hunger games by suzanne collins

@@dxamondheart I would love to see Emma’s thoughts on it 🧐
@@sequoia504 I agree, also Life Before Man by Margaret Atwood is very very good

Well, my TBR just got way bigger after this video. And I'm not mad about it 😂
Thank you, Emma, for always recommending the best books! ❤❤
Had been eagerly waiting for this one! I'm putting this on my bucket list, "Read all the 5 star rated books by Emma" ✍️
Feel free to make all the long videos you want! I’m there for it. 🌟
I’ve discovered you some years ago and I sadly lost my passion (for life) and for books but I think I wanna get back into reading and you motivate me and I really like the way you talk so thanks a lot to you ❤
I clicked as soon as I saw the title of this video! So excited to add more books to my TBR👀😂 my FAVORITE books I’ve ever read are The Bloody Chamber and Interview with the Vampire❤️
I've got shivers when you mentioned a canticle for Leibovitz because you're the first person who mentioned this book IN MY LIFE and its absolutely 100% one of my favorite books of all time. Instant subscribe from me
very much enjoyed this. I read Icefields and commented elsewhere how much I loved it, read it on your recommendation and have recommended it to every book lover I know. Truly one of the best books I have ever read in 60 years.
First person I've ever seen mention The Broken Wings!! It's easily in my top 3 favourite books, I'm so glad you loved it too :)
My only 5 stars:
( btw I love seeing your recommendations, emmie)

• Hangsaman - Shirley Jackson
• The haunting of hill house - Shirley Jackson

The memories from throughout the years rushinggggg back 😭
Thank you for this long list of amazing books. I have noted down the names of all books mentioned.🙈💝
It's amazing to see all my 5 star classics are here. I'm only 4 books away from completing your fav classic books (may be they will become my favourites too now that I know we have same tastes in classic books😍).
So many of the books on your list have fascinated me! ⭐ Lovely video!
I've read like 5 books on your list so I'll need to check out the others! Love the diversity in your reading ✨️
Mine are AIice in Wonderland, The Master and Margarita, The Little Prince, 1984, and Phantom of the Opera
so glad to see a brazilian classic in here!!☺️☺️ also, you pronounced bras cubas perfectly!
i would also recommend dom casmurro by the same author, and also captains of the sand by jorge amado (or any book by him, really).
I needed this video 💖🫶🏻 thank you Emma
Oh my! how your video notification puts a smile on my face
I love this video. Like love love, have to re-watch and take notes kind of love. So many books that I also love and so many that I [now] plan to pick up. And I really appreciate the winter category. I also love snow and ice and will always give a winter book a second look. Thank you!
⭐️I’m so so happy to hear you talk about Anne because that’s probably my favorite book ever and it’s funny bc I prefer to read contemporary Latin American literature (I mean I just finished a degree on that haha). I feel so related to the way you talk about it bc it has given me so many beautiful things in my life ❤ also I just started reading The girl who drank the moon and I’m loving it! I’m so much more excited now that I know that you did too. Btw, I strongly recommend you reading the manga Witch hat atelier!!! Another five star for me!!
This is my favourite type of video aaaa I’m so happy ❤❤❤
It's great to have you back! There are so many great recommendations here, as if I needed my TBR to grow. 😂
I have been wanting to read Solaris for many years but I've never gotten around to buying it, maybe it's time? 👀
So ready for this! I am gonna bookmark all of ‘em! 😂❤
Dandadan for good vibes & comedy, great art, and touching backstories for Manga! Really good
Finished rereading Cloud Atlas a week ago, jeez, yes, still a 5 star, still beautiful. Love the movie as well, maybe even more in some way. Also really happy you came to your senses and appreciated LOTR!
⭐i don't have a concrete list of favourite books mostly because i don't know myself and what i really love yet but i can't wait to find books that just mean everything to me. adored this video!
based off of your winter favourites, i have a favourite called “a snowfall of silver” by laura wood and its beautifully written and so cozy i do think you’d like it!!
something about the way you talk so passionately about these books changes the reading slump mentality i had and made me think “any upcoming read might be a new favourite of mine”, so thank you
Grendel playing with your lights. ❤️ I love how personal ratings are. I give them entirely based on mood and feelings.
I'm pretty sure some other people have recommended this before, but the way you talked about Castle in the Clouds here really reminded me of the Winterhouse trilogy by Ben Guterson! They're not flawless books but the atmosphere is my favourite and it's one of my all time favourite middle grade series. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone if you ever get your hands on it!
You inspired me to buy ‘one hundred years of solitude’ andddd WOWWW, it was weird but oh my gosh was it amazing! Definitely 5/5 stars
I'm still at work, but I can't wait to watch this video when I get home ❤
Gorgeous list! My next reads from your list will be Season of Migration to the North and Icefields, waiting for them to land in my mailbox 😀
I'll do a top five five star books I've read that I think you could love:
1) The War of Don Emmanuel's Nether Parts by Louis de Bernieres (set in Latin America, heavily inspired by Marquez, but also its own thing)
2) The Hunchback of Notre Dame by Victor Hugo (this man can write like no other)
3) Brodeck's Report by Philippe Claudel (litfic, about "the other" in a small village community and the after effects of war - also stunning writing)
4) Good Morning, Midnight by Lily Brooks-Dalton (dystopian literary sci-fi, Arctic setting, orbiting Jupiter setting, but mostly about loneliness and friendship, and as the others has magnificent writing)
5) The Last Bear by Hannah Gold (lonely child moves to Bear Island (Bjørnøya - Norway) with her father, befriends the only polar bear on the island and tries to cross the seas to get him back to Svalbard - lovely middle grade)
⭐
@labben1697 Thumbs up for mentioning The War of Don Emmanuel's Nether Parts, which is criminally overlooked.
Some of my favourite books🌟:
Book of Longing, L. Cohen
The Castle, Kafka
Snow Country, Kawabata
Crime and Punishment, Dostoevsky
The Brothers Karamazov, Dostoevsky
The Flame, L. Cohen

Loved the video!! 💞 For my top 5 reads I would pick: Maurice, The Winners, Pachinko, The Running Grave & Wuthering Heights 📚
