yessssss, thank you!!!! My friends all think i'm weird because i love reading books that have death in them, but i just love reading about how authors explore the subject and how characters react to it.
I thought so too! I think it might be because of his posture. Most people have straighter postures while standing than sitting but his remains consistant
omg 400K?!?! I swear the last video he was at 12k. Where did they all come from? He deserves all the subscribers in the world tho, his videos are the only thing that get me out of a reading slump 😂💕💕
Same but I think a lot of people see it as a book to make him look better but I think it’s just a backstory that answers a lot of questions and explores a very complicated character
I agree. Like was it the level of the hunger games? No, but it gave us the backstory to snow which I think wasn’t to say “bad guy is bad for good reasons” but just to explain how he became bad. Not the best book I’ve ever read but it was fun!
My favorite book I’ve read this year would probably be Chain of Gold because it got me through lockdown and Will, Jem and Tessa are my favorites! Currently reading The Hunger Games trilogy for the first time (I know I’m way late) so I can hopefully read Ballad this year. The most anticipated book I’m looking forward to is Christopher Paolini’s To Sleep in a Sea of Stars!! :)
Whoa whoa! I was just searching for genre based booktube videos. This guy is too much. Oh wait, he is saying things that are super relatable. Hehe, he is pretty funny. Nice editing. Maybe I’ll try one more video of his to see if they are all this speed and style that I wasn’t ready for. *Subscribes after watching 6 more videos and is still watching*
the ballad of songbirds of snakes was rly good imo! I think it did a good job with showing us how the hunger games developed over time between the prequel and the trilogy, as well as showing us the backward thinking of snow. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did, I did hear a lot of people disliking it :/ edit: unpopular opinion: the cover is so stunning! I know people thought it was rly ugly, but to be fair, I did see it in person first, and I think it's prettier in person. edit: another unpopular opinion, Ik people were mad bc they wanted a book on haymitchs or another victors game, which is fair, but we already have 2 books focusing on the tributes in the game. im glad we got a whole new perspective from someone experiencing the games from the outside.
I've only read the first Hunger Games book. Do you think I would be able to follow along in this prequel or would I need to finish the other books in the trilogy first? I'm not really interested in reading the entire trilogy but I am interested in this prequel because I've heard it leans more philosophical.
@@eagann92 if you want you could read it without reading the others, but i strongly recommend you read Catching Fire and Mockingjay first. They are both amazing books and when you read those first I think it will make the experience of reading the prequel a whole lot better. I feel like you would dive deeper into Snow's mind because you would know the actions he made in the last two books. Plus there are a lot of references I caught that referred to the last two books and those are always fun to read. Hope you enjoy whatever book you decide to read 💕
@@eagann92 You could, but there are a lot of references and I don't think you would get the same experience in some parts if you didn't read the trilogy.
I’ve read the ballad of songbirds and snakes, and honestly all I’m going to say is that it’s very good! It’s very different from the original trilogy, but it’s still great.
But it is so slowly or bored its mysteriousus but at the same time is like a meh, but its good, except for the third part or "the peacekeaper" sorry if my english is wrong but im colombian
I have listened to a full spoiler review and it sounds pointless as fuck and way too long for what it is🤦🏻♀️ I am like "thank you, but no thank you" for this one.
@@bluebell1611 The roses first came in the original trilogy late and became his thing at that point, so Suzanne Collins really fucked up with this one because it wasn't Snow's remark until way after. So in reality it was a very bad timeline and that shows. Also making Snow a lesser bad guy was stupid because it really doesn't excuse any of his actions in the trilogy. So this book was basically the downfall of the Hunger Games. I feel dissapointed.
Hi Jesse, so I’ve got a video request. Maybe u could film another bookshelf tour in the future again, I love your bookshelf tour videos and they’re so cool bc it’s like a very long book recommendation video. Also I love your videos and I’ve found a lot of my favorite books through u :)
I’m hoping to get to The Book Thief by Markus Zusak, Kingdom of Souls by Rena Barron, The Tyrant’s Tomb by Rick Riordan, and You Should See Me in a Crown by Leah Johnson before the end of the year!
I love the ballad of songbirds and snakes. It’s defiantly a contender for my favourite book of the year alongside Dragonslayer by Tui Sutherland, and chain of gold by Cassandra Clare
If you like books about grief, I’d recommend The Chaos of Standing Still by Jessica Brody, it’s one of my favorites. It’s also really funny in the non-grief related parts
I know this is kind of unrelated but the thing that i love about booktube is that I NEVER EVER see hate comments. Yes, there are people with different opinions who share them in the comments but no one ever hates or complains and i love that. (basically we're all a big happy booktube family)
OMG i just discovered this channnel and I have to say, damn this is my favourite chanell! Its sooo interesting and like...PERFECT! Love it, can`t wait to see next videos! P.S. great editing!
I was really missing Jessie recently, so I IMMENSELY enjoyed these two new videos!! Also, Jessie, you were really making me want hot cocoa in the unboxing video 😫
Jesse: ... a book that is so underrated that you probably never heard of it sa- Me: Jesse gone crazy. What is he talking about! Jesse: said no one ever Me: good, you got me worried there.
Firstly - the aesthetics in this video are top-notch! Secondly, I'm really glad that your reading is going well recently! You definitely made me interested in Keigo Higashino - weirdness of the stories sounds fascinating - and Justin Reynold's books. I also like grief explored in books, so I would love to pick them up. Outside the video, recently I started a reread of a childhood favorite series, Septimus Heap, and it has been such a fun ride. The focus on family dynamics is lovely. It's nice that despite everything happening books can bring such pleasure and escapism to us. I hope you'll get to your anticipated releases and enjoy them. Have a great day!
It’s so comforting hearing from another book lover to just keep your nose stuck in a book, 2020 is trash, and keep looking forward to better times ahead of us all. Thank you.
My most anticipated release for the remainder of the year would probably be Kingdom of the Wicked by Kerri Maniscalco. It follows a witch teaming up with a demon prince to find out who murdered her sister... about get spooky here👻💀😈
My mom just finished the newest hunger games book and loved it. She read it pretty fast too. I want to read hunger games soon too. Love ya Jesse! Thanks for doing more vids!
Hi jesse. I just wanted to say that you are literally my favourite booktuber ever! Today, i felt like watching a happy and fun bookish video. I tried several other channels but you’re personality and the general vibe of your video was so, so good and it made my day. You are just such a good and nice person! Thank you for uploading! I love your book choices and always enjoy your reviews. One thing to consider though, if you want to talk about spoilers you could just put the word spoiler (edit it in) at the top or bottom of the screen to signify that you are talking about them. When it goes away, people who haven’t read the books can skip to the part and watch again. Just an idea because i would love to know some of your more deep thoughts and know how you felt about the plot’s intricate details! Have a good day. + I am so behind on everything and i kinda want to read the cruel prince! Is it good? Hayah 💖
I've just got to say, Jesse. Your bookshelf is inspiring. Every single time I click on one of your videos and see that wall of goodness behind you, I am content. Also, your videos are amazing! I don't know what my lil' reader brain would do without them!
Another good grief book is The Lucky Ones by Liz Lawson. It focuses on two characters, May, whose brother died in a school shooting that she survived and Zach, whose mother is the lawyer defending the shooter, and it focuses on survivors guilt and how different people deal with grief and how they heal.
Here's my answers: 1. 'The Poppy War' by R.F. Kuang or 'The Once and Future King' by T.H. White 2. 'A Time of Courage' by John Gwynne 3. 'The Burning God' by R.F. Kuang or 'The Fires or Vengeance' by Evan Winter 4. 'The Lord of the Flies' by William Golding (the ending was a let down) 5. 'The Epic of Gilgamesh' 6. 'The Rage of Dragons' by Evan Winter (doesn't really count but oh well) 7. Harry Dresden from the 'Dresden Files' by Jim Butcher or Glokta from 'The First Law' trilogy 8. 'The Blade Itself' by Joe Abercrombie 9. Any 'Dresden Files' book I read, they never fail to make me crack up 10. I got all of the 'A Song of Ice and Fire' (Game of Thrones) books in leatherbound 11. 'The Eye of the World' by Robert Jordan or 'The Black Prism' by Brent Weeks
I have been in the biggest reading slump during quarantine, but some books I really want to get to are call down the hawk, the queen of nothing, and bridge of clay. Also, Jesse, I love your shirt!
I was doing other stuff while listening to Jesse but then he suddenly mentions The Promised Neverland and I DROPPED EVERYTHING! That manga is like mah child! I watched Emma and co. grow up! MAH BABIES!!
Five books I'm planning on getting to this year: 1. Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi 2. Gone by Michael Grant 3. The Merciless 2 by Danielle Vega 4. Clockwork Princess by Cassandra Clare 5. Hollow City by Ransom Riggs
I'm here because you said something like: "blue, blue, baby blueeee" and the first thing I thought was Kimi no sei de by SHINee. So... Sorry not sorry. Another reason is because I'm in love with your t-shirt 😂✨
Today my book 📚 haul came including: The Kingdom of Back Goddess in the machine Clap when you land And the Shadow and Bone Trilogy (Shadow and bone, Siege and storm, Ruin and rising) Also will be able to pick up Seafire from the library soon 😁😍👍
Kingdom of Back is a great book, my brother and I just filmed a skit based on it lol. Also, I just got Shadow and Bone from the library, I'm excited to read it.
The books to your questions 1- Twilight Robbery (Fly trap for USA readers) 2- Burn by Patrick Ness 3- Never and Forever (Wizards of Once #4) 4- The land of Roar 5- The Ask and the Answer (Chaos Walking #2) 6- Starfell - Willow Moss and the Lost Day by Dominique Valente 7 - The Mayor (Chaos Walking). HM to the Weasley twins. 8- Monsters of Men (Chaos Walking #3 - that ending) 9- The Harry Potter books (take your pick, especially the earlier ones where there was less at stake) 10- Crooked Kingdom (Collector’s edition) 11- Mortal engines (the whole quartet) I’m currently having a fantastic reading year. I initially set my goal at 40 books, but I’m already at 32 books read, so I changed it to 50. I also have gone through some extremely popular ones including Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and The Fault in our Stars. Currently reading Eldest in the Inheritance Cycle.
I love Jesse style of clothing and just overall asecethic
Same!!
YES!
Yes it's just so pleasing to look at
I agree 👍🏻 with u
Ghost N7 I feel like my style has came from watching TH-camrs like Jesse and other people so I know what you mean! 😂
LIKE I WAS LITERALLY *JUST* THINKING “I miss Jesse’s new videos”, and I think I manifested too hard! I mean, 2 VIDEOS AT ONCE? I’m powerful!
IKRRR
SAME!!!
Ayah's Not Here thank you so much 😁
I see u in almost every vd of Jessie 👀..
Same here!
2020 should not be considered a year tbh. Like don’t count it anywhere.
a century's worth of things have happened in this year already lol
Ender yeah
WHAT DID WE DO TO DESERVE TWO JESSE UPLOADS IN THE SPAN OF TWO MINUTES???
It’s like I always say: Death doesn’t make me happy, but it doesn’t mean human analysis of it doesn’t fascinate me.
yessssss, thank you!!!! My friends all think i'm weird because i love reading books that have death in them, but i just love reading about how authors explore the subject and how characters react to it.
Random, but is Jesse sitting on a chair? For some reason I always thought he was standing 😂😂🤣🤷🏼♀️😂🤣 Idk why I find that so weird loll
I know right! I was always thinking he's been standing up, but then I saw the chair and started laughing a bit.
He sits in some vids and stands in some
(I was shocked when I found out as well lol)
I was so confused for a minute 😂
Woah plot twist 😂
I thought so too! I think it might be because of his posture. Most people have straighter postures while standing than sitting but his remains consistant
I bought Miss Peregrene's house for pecurial children because of you and now I'm broke so if I won't like it I'm coming for ya. 😂
After all this time, it's the book I'm gonna buy next...I hope I'm gonna like it😅
I think you will honestly
I got A monster calls because of him too and I loved it! Let us know if you like Miss Peregrine so we can be broke together 😂
I have read miss penguins and I will say you will either love it or it will be a 3. Star book
@@ducknoisesintensify8007 miss...penguins? ok
Congrats on 400K my friend!
omg 400K?!?! I swear the last video he was at 12k. Where did they all come from? He deserves all the subscribers in the world tho, his videos are the only thing that get me out of a reading slump 😂💕💕
I love that you are supporting other booktubers, Kayla!!🤗🖤
Always as a friend xD
To anyone reading this: Have a beautiful day, you deserve it! Take care of yourself. You matter!!💕
The fact that you related to the character with loved ones who don't support his dreams makes me so sad☹️
Ps: love your outfit
I don’t think there’s anyone I’m ever so excited to watch. Man Jesse your energy is just so therapeutic ❣️
Completely agreed.
“Book beatdown” YES WE LIKE THAT 😎
I laughed so hard. AGREED.
I get why people don't like TBOSAS, but I liked it. It's an interesting perspective into the world of Panem and into Snow's backstory.
Same but I think a lot of people see it as a book to make him look better but I think it’s just a backstory that answers a lot of questions and explores a very complicated character
@@ellesushi8478 Me too. I didn't want some tragic backstory, I'm glad we got more than that.
Hannah B yeah and it explains his hate for the mockingjay and district 12 and why he turned out the way he is
I agree. Like was it the level of the hunger games? No, but it gave us the backstory to snow which I think wasn’t to say “bad guy is bad for good reasons” but just to explain how he became bad. Not the best book I’ve ever read but it was fun!
Hi, Omg I can’t believe the year is already half way over that’s crazy!?!
Yeah
We are doomed...and by we i mean me...o levels sigh
yeah! I don't know how it passed by so quickly (I think that's a good thing)!
@@ender4344 let's hope we survive the remaining half of this crazy year.
I hate 2020 😂

JESSE! You have to read The ballad of songbird and snakes!! I wanna know your opinion!

*aesthetic level infinite
Two videos in one day! Jesse is this Christmas?!
me: clicks on the video
the video: posted 37 mins ago
me: 9 mins into the video
the video: still posted 37 mins ago
Weirder is video at 0 view but 100+ comments 😂
Oh! Same. Its so aggravating
Hi Jesse, so I’ve got a video request. Maybe u could film another bookshelf tour in the future again, I love your bookshelf tour videos and they’re so cool bc it’s like a very long book recommendation video.

Suzanne Collins should have done the perspective of Haymitch and his story not Snow.
YESSS did you just post twice in one day thanks you😭👏😭
If you like books about grief, I’d recommend The Chaos of Standing Still by Jessica Brody, it’s one of my favorites. It’s also really funny in the non-grief related parts

Two video from Jesse in one day, less then 10 minutes apart 😍
OMG i just discovered this channnel and I have to say, damn this is my favourite chanell! Its sooo interesting and like...PERFECT! Love it, can`t wait to see next videos!
P.S. great editing!
Welcome!!!
Warm welcome, reader fam!
Book freak out tag with Jesse!!!
You got me back into reading a year ago! Hope you have a good day!
I was really missing Jessie recently, so I IMMENSELY enjoyed these two new videos!! Also, Jessie, you were really making me want hot cocoa in the unboxing video 😫
Jesse: ... a book that is so underrated that you probably never heard of it sa-
Me: Jesse gone crazy. What is he talking about!
Jesse: said no one ever
Me: good, you got me worried there.
I really want to read the selection series before the end of the year.....
i love that series!
Jesse in the Illumicrate unboxing video: I will see you soon with a new video!
Jesse: posts, like, three minutes later
Well, that was quick.
im doing the koreadathon too!! im excited to hear what other books youre reading!
Yessss
Early
I love your bookshelf...
It's so neat..
#BookshelfGoals
Also 2020 was a HAPPY EW YEAR!!
THANKS JESSE! I *needed* a new video. I watch your videos literally every day. They just helps me function.
Congratulations on 400k !!
Early squad here!!!
YEeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh
Hi.
Omg
Omg I should mark today in My Calendar
Two video in a day ?! WOW
* WE ARE BEING BLESSED *
Firstly - the aesthetics in this video are top-notch! Secondly, I'm really glad that your reading is going well recently! You definitely made me interested in Keigo Higashino - weirdness of the stories sounds fascinating - and Justin Reynold's books. I also like grief explored in books, so I would love to pick them up.
Outside the video, recently I started a reread of a childhood favorite series, Septimus Heap, and it has been such a fun ride. The focus on family dynamics is lovely. It's nice that despite everything happening books can bring such pleasure and escapism to us. I hope you'll get to your anticipated releases and enjoy them. Have a great day!
I want to read A Sky Beyond the Storm by Sabaa Tahir when it releases. Also, Lightbringer by Claire Legrand too.
It’s so comforting hearing from another book lover to just keep your nose stuck in a book, 2020 is trash, and keep looking forward to better times ahead of us all. Thank you.
Two uploads in 5 mins!!! Am I dreaming ??
I'm about to read a book that inspired Hamilton and it's basically 1,000 pages 😂
What's it called?
You know when it's Christmas for readers when Jesse posts *2* videos in a day.
YOUR SHELFS ARE SO GORGEUS IM GONNA CRY
When you talk about books it make me so happy!
Jesse uploaded two times I'M DREAMING
My most anticipated release for the remainder of the year would probably be Kingdom of the Wicked by Kerri Maniscalco. It follows a witch teaming up with a demon prince to find out who murdered her sister... about get spooky here👻💀😈
ooooh adding that to my want to read on goodreads rn 😂lmao
i would definitely encourage you to continue the promised neverland!! it's really good!
My mom just finished the newest hunger games book and loved it. She read it pretty fast too. I want to read hunger games soon too. Love ya Jesse! Thanks for doing more vids!
**What did I just read?!** OMG THAT WAS ONE HECK OF AN ICONIC REACTION!
Promised Neverland 🖤🖤🖤
Congratulations for 400k

Also, your videos are amazing! I don't know what my lil' reader brain would do without them!
Love your videos I'm from Brazil!
Two videos in one day! It's a good day!
Literally so happy. He posted twice in three minutes ahhhh 😁😁😁😁
I love how he makes me wanna read every book he enjoys. Man he is expressive. 👊
Congrats on reaching 400K subscribers!!!❤
thanks so much!
it always takes me so long to watch jessie's videos cuz i'm always pausing to mark every book he talks about on my want to read list 😂
Jesse and I have different tastes in books, but I still love watching his videos.
Promised Neverland!!! Omg the anime is so good!
Shirt kinda matches the books in the background and I'm living for it
Another good grief book is The Lucky Ones by Liz Lawson. It focuses on two characters, May, whose brother died in a school shooting that she survived and Zach, whose mother is the lawyer defending the shooter, and it focuses on survivors guilt and how different people deal with grief and how they heal.
omg killing us with double content
I can't stop thinking about The Miracles of the Namiya General Store! I watched the movie last night after reading the book and I loved both of them.
I'm just looking forward to September because then I'll finally have time to read more again 🥺
Finally a Jesse mid-year freakout video, ready to watch. (My freakout turned into 21 minutes long on my channel. 😂)
Okay but Early Departures is gonna come out on my birthday so I'll try to keep it in me about how a beautiful story is just gonna *screams*
The new hunger games is SO GOOD ITS SO GOOD!
i could honestly listen to jesse y’all all day haha he just sounds so passionate about his topics!
Jesse the coolest , kindest and most lighthearted dude
I LOVE *The Promised Neverland* 💜💜💜 Hope you keep reading them! I want to hear your thoughts further into the series 😆

I have been checking like every few hours for a new Jesse video for DAAAYYYSSSS. I’m so happy.
I just read a whole series, the Lost Books by Ted Dekker, in an unholy short time. I usually read Dekker books pretty quick though.
I have been in the biggest reading slump during quarantine, but some books I really want to get to are call down the hawk, the queen of nothing, and bridge of clay. Also, Jesse, I love your shirt!
I was doing other stuff while listening to Jesse but then he suddenly mentions The Promised Neverland and I DROPPED EVERYTHING!
That manga is like mah child! I watched Emma and co. grow up! MAH BABIES!!
I’ve read Ballad of songbirds and snakes and the opposite of always and I really enjoyed both books, but obviously everyone has a different opinion 😎
Five books I'm planning on getting to this year:
1. Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi
2. Gone by Michael Grant
3. The Merciless 2 by Danielle Vega
4. Clockwork Princess by Cassandra Clare
5. Hollow City by Ransom Riggs
Omg, gone
Haha when you said "big brain" you reminded me of Chase Crossing 😂 Awesome video Jesse!
Starting my Shadowhunters journey- finally!! I have a good feeling about these books!!!
I still have yet to get a copy of Ballad 🥺
I'm here because you said something like: "blue, blue, baby blueeee" and the first thing I thought was Kimi no sei de by SHINee. So... Sorry not sorry. Another reason is because I'm in love with your t-shirt 😂✨
jesse is always relaxed in his videos.. wanna see him extremely relaxed and calm? watch his first most video of the channel lmaaooo
love love LOVE Jesse’s editing and style

The Kingdom of Back
Goddess in the machine
Clap when you land
And the Shadow and Bone Trilogy (Shadow and bone, Siege and storm, Ruin and rising)
Also will be able to pick up Seafire from the library soon 😁😍👍
Kingdom of Back is a great book, my brother and I just filmed a skit based on it lol. Also, I just got Shadow and Bone from the library, I'm excited to read it.
Just finished the Shadow and Bone trilogy. It was pretty common and mediocre fantasy ya.

11- Mortal engines (the whole quartet)
I’m currently having a fantastic reading year. I initially set my goal at 40 books, but I’m already at 32 books read, so I changed it to 50. I also have gone through some extremely popular ones including Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and The Fault in our Stars. Currently reading Eldest in the Inheritance Cycle.
