Noelle radiates cool big sister energy and it’s everything 😊
Thank you! That's exactly what it is!
She is now our big sister
🥺🥺 my little shortcakes
Everytime she says we are her shortcakes I melt a little inside
@@luoiv7682 it's too wholesome
the cover: *exists*
noelle: 🥺✨💘🤩✨✨STUNNING✨💘🤩✨✨
I laughed so hard when you said “before you call me a caPITALIST PiG” 😂😂🐷
I thought she said catholic instead of capitalist and was sooo confused
I heard "catless pig" 🤣🤣. Capitalist pig makes more sense tho hahaha
Hahahahh those are equally hilarious
@@margaridam5419 I heard capless pig...idk what i was hearing haha
I thought she said capless pig.. as in, no cap on the amount of books she has
Noelles giggles every time before saying the punch like and it gets me every time
The jokes are the only thing keeping me alive at this point
Same!
What are you in school for
Yup totally
"A Man Called Ove" is one of my favorite books. It's slow paced but that's one of the things I love about it. Plus, it made me laugh out loud several times. The. movie is also pretty good. Great haul btw!
Same!
A Man Called Ove is an absolute masterpiece of the written word IMO. No other way to describe it.
Loved it! It was a great one on audiobook
Yes! I love that book so much, I was crying my eyes out at the end 😭
It's one of my favorite books and I don't know many people who have read it! It's so insightful and kind of sad but beautiful and I bawled. It was wonderful! I would highly recommend
my day: 😪😔😞😒
my day after Noelle posts: ✨🥰🤩🥳🤪
NOELLE I DISCOVERED YOUR CHANNEL IN JANUARY AND I LOVE YOU YOU ARE THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY YEAR SO FAR
🥺💛 tysm!!!!
Michelle prepare, she becomes the spark that keeps you alive, at least for me this past year 💕
All I want for Christmas is Noelle's vivacious strawberry energy, teach me sis ✨🍓
There’s my angel 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Ayiti (eye-yi-tee) is Haitian Creole for “Haiti” , it’s a blend of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry about the Haitian diaspora that came out in 2011. I’ve been wanting to read that for a while too!
It's so good - I highly recommend it!
Ahhh thank you so much!!
noelle: it's a YA romance so it'll probably be light on the steam!
sarah j mass: *AGGRESSIVELY ENTERS THE CHAT*
Laughs in acomaf lol
Too true 😅
I just finished reading A Court of Thorns and Roses and couldn’t agree more!
“literary fiction about trees” 😂😂
She sold it for me though - can't wait to read it😂😂
Noelle: asks herself questions about details of the book she is holding
Me: answering and reassuring her out loud even though she can't hear or see me 👍🏼🙋🏼♀️👏🏼
every time you say "welcome back" gives me a flashback to that video when you wore that bat sweater and said "welcome bat" and I love it
I love how the Stephen King pile grows from video to video
“The Witch’s Heart” is based on Norse mythology’s Angrboda who is AMAZING! It is one of my MUST reads for this year!
I thought you WEREN'T going to throw the joke book and I almost freaked out
Also I'm reading The Witch's Heart right now and it is super accessible if you know nothing about Norse mythology (which, alas dear TH-camr, I do not)
She does anything:
Literally anything:
Me: ❣️💘💜🥺🥰💍😊
Basically😭👒💗
No one:
Literally no one:
Noelle: Stunning
Yes!! I’ve been waiting for this! No power here in Texas but enough for me to watch Noelle!!
My heart is with you!!! Wishing for your safety, power and heat!! 💛
@@NoelleGallagher thank you ❤️ been with rolling power and no water for 4 days now, but surviving! Took my vlog 4 hours to upload 😂😂
Getting my goodreads account ready so I can add more books from this haul into my never ending TBR list 🤘🏼
I do the same thing! 😂
Me too 😂
A Man Called Ove is such a gem! And one of those rare books where the film is just as good!
Wide Sargasso Sea is a brilliant book. It’s the story of Mr Rochester’s life prior to the events of Jane Eyre.
Backman is by far one of my favorite writers, but his writing always holds a trend: the first 120 pages are slow. In every book. But my God when he gets going, he GETS. GOING. I know that I love him and still within 80 pages of every book I consider DNFing. Backman lovers understand you
"A pho love story" reminds me on the movie Little Italy, the one with Emma Roberts. It is also a love story where the parents have two pizza shops and there is a rivalry of sorts, just like Romeo and Juliet.
And if you don't like "A man called Ove" - read "Beartown" 😁❤️
Bear Town is the best!
I don’t know, for me, Beartown took a lot longer to get into than A Man Called Ove or Anxious People. But it was my first Backman read-so perhaps not knowing the pacing of his books made it more difficult.
@@kaitlynbagel1874 I agree! I loved anxious people so much. So I went out and bought beartown and a man called ove. Some reason I couldn’t get into bear town. Maybe I need to try a man called ove first
The audiobook for Anxious People was SO well done, maybe that would work better than the physical book! :) the narrator’s performance is so well done and funny and really gives life to the words
ABSOLUTELY AGREE!!!! To be honest, if I was reading it physically I might have DNFd it (it tend to do that much more with physical books than audiobooks), but the audiobook was so good I didn't feel like doing that and I don't regret it
noelle’s sense of humor is just elite
and omg the intro is everythinggg 😍
the strawberry book queen has blessed us today❤️🍓
Noelle's videos really make me happy. She inspires me to read more.
100% yes!
I just hauled “a man called ove” too! But I LOVED “anxious people.”
me, hearing Noelle say A Man Called Ove will be fun knowing full well I cried like five different times while reading it: 👁👄👁
Backman's writing in anxious people is very similar to A man called Ove but I still don't want you to give up on him . He is an amazing author. I suggest you listen to A man called Ove on audio, it's available on Scribd and it's narrated by J.K Simmons who did a phenomenal job he brought me to tears so many times. If you still want to continue reading Backman I also suggest Beartown.
i ADORE josh and hazel's guide to not dating. i read them for the first time last year then read it another 3 times after and read again it twice this year already😭
Do you have a tbr-count? Like do you know how many unread books you own? Or am I the only one counting???
Noelle's dad jokes are something i never knew i needed in my life xD
I would honestly LOVE a "Colleen Hoover reading vlog" from you at some point. I haven't read any of her books either, but I also feel like people either hate or love her writing...
I had to read On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous in my Literature and Sexuality class last semester and honestly it's one of the best books I have ever read. It is so beautifully written, the imagery is amazing and the characters' interactions are so heartbreaking and beautiful.. Hope you enjoy it!
I always watch Noelle when I’m feeling down, she’s so comforting and always makes me feel better
I'm quicker than Usain Bolt when Noelle uploads I swear !
I’m a teacher, and due to snow, school got cancelled. On top of that, you posted a new video!!!! My day just keeps getting better!!! ❤️❤️❤️ I think you’re amazing, and I greatly appreciate your joy 🥲 Thank you for posting each week.
The Thursday Next series, which Lost in a Good Book is a part of, is a favorite of mine and so perfect for book lovers. I would recommend reading the Eyre Affair first to familiarize yourself with what is going on. It might not be strictly necessary for the purposes of your class but might be helpful for enjoyment.
I just read Evelina for my early novel class last semester and I honestly loved it. It's so full of drama and mystery right from the get go. It's just a good time, and the characterization and family dynamic was fun to write about for people that care about that stuff
Tools of Engagement was fantastic. It featured tropes I didn’t like but it worked for me! Already in my top 2021 reads 💘
I can't wait to find out what you think about "A man called Ove". It's my favorite book. The story is SO sweet!
One of the most genuine people on all of The TH-camz. Never change, Noelle.
I know it's not relevant to this video BUT I finally gave in and picked up The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo after reading nothing but thrillers for the last two months and WOW I loved it so much I finished it in 2 days. Girl you DO. NOT. MISS with the recommendations!
Thank you for being such a driving force in making reading a joy for me again and generally being such a light on this platform. Wishing you all the happiness in the world!
A pho love story is super cute!! it's got fake dating + romeo/juliet-esque family rivalry 🥲 and it's really heart-warming too, as much of a family story as it is a YA romance
"wow I'm lying they do have a key" I literally keep laughing out loud at you this is too fun 💕
I love love love Roxana! Also super interesting thing about that book, is that depending on the edition, the entire plot and ending will change. It’s a heavily edition and redistributed novel. I hope you enjoy!
That is so cool!!!
"Wide Sargasso Sea" & "Jack Maggs" are fantastic books 😍😍😍 both are postcolonial rewritings, the first one's focus is Mad Bertha of "Jane Eyre" & the other one's focus is Magwitch of "Great Expectations".
As a literature student who had to read Pamela for class lol, I totally loved it. It's one of my favorite 18th-century novels (top prize goes to Frances Burney's "Evelina") It helped to have a professor who was really invested in getting us to read the feminist/class-conscious elements in it
My TBR for February: All of these are by black authors and 8/10 authors are women☺️
“Passing” by Nella Larson. “A Promised Land” by Barack Obama. “The Bluest Eye” by Toni Morrison. “Go Tell It On The Mountain” by James Baldwin. “The Vanishing Half” by Brit Bennett. “My Sister The Serial Killer” by Oyinkan Braithwaite. “The Mother of Black Hollywood: A Memior” by Jenifer Lewis. “Such a Funny Age” by Kiley Reid. “The Hate U Give” by Angie Thomas. Lastly, “The Truths We Hold” by Kamala Harris.
Yessss! I love Amityville Horror! I read a lot of horror and don't get spooked often but I needed to read that with the light on. Lol!
I read Amityville Horror in the early 80s, it was so good! A quick read if I recall correctly!
Wide Sargasso Sea is a retelling of Jane Eyre, about the background of Bertha Mason (the wife) and how she came to end up in the predicament that she is in during the novel - my mum loves it! I think it gives the classic a new spin and a whole new perspective. I hope you enjoy it!
I just honestly sett and drink my coffee while I watch your video and it was AMAZING! Thanks for making me not feel alone during the pandemic.
About Fredrik Backman: I feel like most of his books have this vibe of "here I am telling you a sad, deeply emotional story, but writing it in a funny way so you will laugh and cry while reading it". If you want to read a Backman's book that has NOT this vibe, try his book Beartown. This one is not sad-funny. It's just sad. lol It's one of the BEST books I've ever read, but it destroyed me. Definitely recommend it (the characters and the plot are really good).
I completely agree! Beartown stayed with me alooong time after I finished it! So good!
On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous is my all-time favorite! I was SO excited when Ellias read it and beyond thrilled when he loved it too! Now YOU are reading it!? Life is too good. Thanks for the awesome book haul! I love you and all your videos!
Hi, Noelle! I just wanted to say thank you for 25 minutes of happy distraction. I’m in Texas going through the snowstorms, power outages, and water problems. This definitely made the day better.
Jasper Fforde's Thursday Next Series is my FAVORITE! (Lost in a Good Book is #2) If you can squeeze in The Eyre Affair before you have to read it for class, you may appreciate the series more. However, for that particular class, I can see why your professor would jump to #2. Enjoy! It's out there!
I finished reading, “The Vanishing Half” and I gave it a 3/5. I had high expectations and I was let down. It’s a good book nonetheless. There is another book called “Passing” by Nella Larson. I definitely recommend that book.
The power is really good the last pages leave me shook 😲
A Man Called Ove destroyed me. I binge listened over two days at home and it made me laugh and bawl crying. One of my favourite books of all time 😭
Please never read 'a little life'...
If ove destroyed you dear friend
I would LOVE to see a Colleen Hoover reading vlog!! I’ve only read 3 of her books but they were all 5 stars for me! Highly recommend verity, it ends with us, and ugly love
Wide Sargasso Sea is a back story of one of the characters from Jane Eyre. Heard mixed things.
Josh and Hazel's Guide to Not Dating omg my heart 🥺 it's soooo good and got me out of my reading slump!
The fact that you DNF’ed Anxious People makes me feel so much better about doing it too 😅
It was wayyyy too slow for me! 😭
Lost in a good book is the second in the Thursday Next series and it’s a great series - hope you enjoy! 😊
Your energy and your laugh is contagious
I read A Man Called Ove and loved it then started Anxious People and gave it up because none of the characters had anything to get attached to. Ove is for sure one of Backmans best!
EVERYONE STOP!!!! noelle posted 😁
Tools of engagement is so good!!
I also read anxious people this year and was disappointed since I’d previously read beartown and a man called ove and really enjoyed both of those. The writing is sometimes kind of jarring but I flew through a man called ove. I hope you enjoy it too!
oooh a tip!
Fredrik Backman has also written the Beartown-series. LOVE that serie
If you are enjoying Don Quijote you should definitely read Lazarillo de Tormes - it was written anonymously in Spain mid 16th century and tells the story of a young boy named Lázaro and how he gets through all of his misfortunes by playing dirty tricks. It's by far one of the funniest books I've ever read and a bit underrated amidst the Hispanic literary classics. It's also a short and quick read so I hope you give it a shot! An amazing video as always, Noelle 🥰❤️❤️
Rose madder is awesome! I borrowed it from the library with that special edition cover and now I'm gonna buy it cos its amazing
I’m in the middle of On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous and I’m taking pause every other paragraph because it is so STUNNING. Xxxx
I really liked Wide Sargasso Sea, its considered a prequel to Jane Eyre which is my favourite classic
I love how Noelle is always so happy but also at the edge of crazy in every video. We love to see it! 💕😁
I also DNF'ed Anxious People, but I loved A Man Called Ove! The old man was like a mix of the character from Gran Torino and the character from Up. The audiobook was good too!
omg finally someone who didn't like anxious people!!! i don't understand the hype around it, I feel like his books are just thinly veiled self help books which I didn't ask for
New Noelle video perfect for a lunch break at work!!
the video quality 😵 exquisite
Wide Sargasso Sea is great! It's really interesting to read alongside Jane Eyre as well. Read both in a class about the Brontës last year!
My boss loves what he calls Dad jokes. Not only do I love your videos and vibe, but passing these jokes along is going to get me a promotion. Love it!
I read the power awhile ago and I REALLY loved it. I want to read it again honestly!! Very well written
Jasper Fforde is brilliant! Can’t wait to see what you think of the Thursday Next series (although I recommend starting with the first book The Eyre Affair, which I think you’d also appreciate as a big fan of Jane Eyre). It’s one of my favourite series, so quirky and funny! Enjoy 😀
josh and hazel's guide to not dating is sooo good. put it at the top of your pile.
there's a movie called little Italy and the parents of the main characters own pizza places and compete with each other. if you like a pho love story, you will for sure love Little Italy.
i literally live for book haul videos now that i have a new year’s resolution on not buying any new books this year🥺🥲🤍 unless i finish my whole tbr before 2022 ofc😝 many good books in this haul, and many books i want myself🥲♥️
I would love a video about your jewelry collection!!!! I love all of your earrings😍😍
I am just bingewatching your videos I don’t know why but I am. And loving every second of it😂
When I was an undergrad, I took a class called 18th Century Comic Constructions and we didn't read Pamela but we DID read Joseph Andrews which was a sort of parody of Pamela so I learned enough to know I probably wouldn't like it (but I have no other memory from that class b/c I broke my arm on the ice and spent that semester high off painkillers). However!! Anna and the French Kiss is cute and I just got the special edition, Josh and Hazel is one of my favorite Christina Lauren books, Tools of Engagement is the third in a series but it's the best book by a goddamn mile so don't waste time on the first two.
I never knew about the Don Quixote connection for Wide Sargasso Sea! I only knew it as the postcolonial Jane Eyre rewriting and I thought it was so fascinating!!!
These are fabulous selections and I have placed holds on some on Libby! Thanks for the suggestions!!!
Wide Sargasso Sea is kind of a fanfiction about Jane Eyre, actually. It imagines the story of Bertha, Mr Rochester's wife who he decides is insane and locks in his attic. I haven't read it, but it's high up on my TBR and from what I've heard, it's really good!
I have like 8 books coming for my birthday tomorrow and this is making me so excited to get them :D
colleen hoover's writing is very captivating and regretting you is one of my favorites from her! hope you enjoy it!!!
regretting you was like a little messy w/ the drama but i just embraced it, it literally had me bawling for the last 100 pages
I was the exact same for Anxious People - super turned off by the writing style. I pushed through and finally started to enjoy it about 100-150 pages in. If you ever feel so inclined I do encourage you to try again!
