I feel you! I work in a book store so I get a small discount. Literally after almost every shift I come home with a book which means I have a huge pile on my bedside table of books I need to read it’s so bad (but so good ughh)
I’ve never wanted so badly to simultaneously sleep and read. Each recommendation is an intriguing option; I love how you describe the books. Also, I admire that in your busy life you still find / make time to read and explore new literature. 📚
You're going to enjoy The Left Hand of Darkness so much. Every time I re-read it, the story haunts me for months afterwards. Le Guin was so before her time. Total genius 📚📚
I really loved Milkman. I ended up reading it in conjunction with a nonfiction book called Say Nothing: A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland that recounts the story of many IRA members and leaders. Highly recommend!
Will do! Also thank you so much for tagging me your video -- I had filmed this one the night before so I wasn't sure if I would do it and then it slipped my mind. I really enjoyed yours though! Especially the edition of Milkman you have. Those words sound SO GOOD 🤗
The Wild Laughter's author's name can be pronounced a few different ways, which is the norm for irish names as there are three distinct dialects of Irish. The author herself pronounces is Key-Lin (keylinn, not kEY-linn) though other people could say Kay-linn or i would have thought it was Qway-lin like Caoimhe (Qwee-vah) but with a slight glottal stop on the C. Sorry this is so long an explanation I'm just very passionate about irish names :D good woman yerself for givin it a go!
The Celtic Tiger was a phenomenon in the Republic of Ireland, and yeah it was several years of a really booming economy, that ended in 2008. The Celtic Tiger never touched Northern Ireland, which is the bit that experienced the Troubles. You have to do a video pronouncing Irish names :) The meanings of the girls names in particular are often really beautiful.
Technically (Hi! I'm THAT GUY! :) ) a 'novel' starts at 40,000 words, so it's possible it's just a really short novel. Novellas typically run 10,000 to 40,000. (Novelettes are shorter, then short stories, then flash fiction, then drabbles, going down in size each time.)
I loooove your book recomendation videos mauve, I always revisit them with a pen and paper😆 Pd: I couldn't finish watching your video about spanish and I was sooo sad to find out you put it out, I hope you make another one day, at least saying random words, I just love your accent Cheers!
I don't, but I like learning about places or periods in little clusters if I can! I had just started Milkman so when some of these other books popped up I wanted to read them in a little bunch to see if they made any chords together :)
"Caoilinn" is pronounced "Keelin", and the author of "A Ghost In The Throat" is Doireann Ní Ghríofa, which is pronounced more or less like "Dorin Nee Greefa". Just for future reference if you do another book video :)
You’re seem for me to be a loving and kind person❤️ I‘ve already watched some of your videos and I don’t want to sound weird but want to tell you.... with all you calmness and loving character I just love you more😅❤️ I know I still will probably never really meet you in person, but still wish you all love and kindness, health for you and all your loved ones! Keep doing what you love ❤️ Take care Miss Mauve☺️❤️🌈
Had to google Milkman to see if if was about the same Troubles I was thinking of and was surprised to discover it was. I don't think I've ever heard someone from the US refer to it so casually, like you knew people would know what you meant, if that makes sense? That statement probably sounds super ignorant, but it's really hard to know how well-known certain things are in other countries when you've grown up with them. I'm lucky enough to have missed the conflict (though the Good Friday Agreement was only signed several years after I was born which is wack), but the effects are still so apparent, especially up the North. Sorry for the rambly comment, it's just really unusual to hear non-Irish people mention the Troubles 😅
Oh also, Caoilinn is pronounced Kwee-lin or Kway-lin or sometimes Kee-lin depending on dialect, and the period of the Celtic Tiger ended in 2007/2008 leading to a big ol' recession 🐯
Yeah the Troubles aren't studied in the US and thus not really known by those who weren't alive when it was going on, which is part of the reason I'm always eager to learn more about it!
Hi Mauve! Curious to see if you have read Eleven Minutes by Paulo Coelho? It’s originally in Portuguese and I have only read the Spanish translation, one of my favorites of all time though!
"I usually read all the books I buy"
I wish I could relate to that! My bookshelf is a morgue 😭
😂😂

Mauve ASMR is so underrated she deserves much more attention and fame.
So do I.
I absolutely love your book videos Mauve! Especially the soft tapping on the book covers, it’s my absolute favourite trigger 😌
So glad you like it! Thanks!!
You're going to enjoy The Left Hand of Darkness so much. Every time I re-read it, the story haunts me for months afterwards. Le Guin was so before her time. Total genius 📚📚
I'm so excited for it! There's also a PBS documentary on Le Guin I plan on watching afterwards, which is also exciting to me hehe
The first time I read it, I was not into it for the first half of the book. But by the end I was sobbing and couldn't forget about it. What a book!
Might be kind of a weird comment but your nails are so pretty. Very pleasing to look at lol
Not weird imo! And thanks!
@@MauveASMR 😇
Ur book videos are the base of my hierarchy of needs
Been using my Kindle app for years, but this made me crave buying books again!
You inspire me to pick up a book. Sometimes I need to br reminded of how much I love to read
Your book recommendation videos are my absolute favorite 😻
I love it when you do book related videos :) I will be adding some of these to my goodreads!
I was looking around for some relax before sleeping. And there you are! Thank you, I'm blessed 😌😌😌
So excited for this - absolutely love your book recommendations!
I really loved Milkman. I ended up reading it in conjunction with a nonfiction book called Say Nothing: A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland that recounts the story of many IRA members and leaders. Highly recommend!
Too many books? No! If anything it is a business expense necessary for you to make these videos for us! 💛💛
Hahaha yes yes thank you 😅
I love book haul! So relaxing!
Yes yes yes!! Looking to buy a new book this week ready to watch this 📚🥰💗
I'm living for the sound of your fingers and nails on book cover xx
Please update us on all your reads!! I'm so curious what you think about these books
Will do! Also thank you so much for tagging me your video -- I had filmed this one the night before so I wasn't sure if I would do it and then it slipped my mind. I really enjoyed yours though! Especially the edition of Milkman you have. Those words sound SO GOOD 🤗

No no thank you for informing me! Now I'm saying it in my head a bunch to get it down. Thanks!
Your voice is very soothing :)
Thank you!!
My prayers have been answered
At your service! 😛

With data from How Long to Read (~1h56m at 300wpm) the estimate for West by Carys Davies is 35,000 words :)
You're "hi! I'm that guy! :)" made me laugh haha. Also glad you care about books as much as I do 🤗
Loved this 💖 Caoilinn is pronounced " Kale In " ❤️ lots of love from Ireland 💚
Thanks! 🤗

It's coming back! I uploaded it at night and thought I had set it to "scheduled" but when I woke up I saw it had gone public immediately! Oops
@@MauveASMR now I can go and have a good night sleep😆thank youuu
Omg Milkman is SO GOOD
You should try The Dreamers (Karen Thompson Walker) & Sealed (Naomi Booth)
Oooh and The Muse!!
I love how you're interested in Irish books and Irish history. I'm from Northern Ireland. Do you have family in Ireland? 😊
I don't, but I like learning about places or periods in little clusters if I can! I had just started Milkman so when some of these other books popped up I wanted to read them in a little bunch to see if they made any chords together :)
Absolutely loved this! Mauve, where do you keep all of your books?! I imagine your room to have walls made of bookshelves 😂
Haha actually I'm in dire need of a shelf! Planning on getting one soon though, thank god
Bunny is weird as fuck you're in for a ride.
Just Kids is one of my all time favorite memoirs.
Oh yay I love to hear that!
I love your whispers💕💕You have such a beautiful mouth👀..
a glossy and matte cover is my weakness

Thanks Beth! I appreciate it!
I think this is your best video so far. Getting better with age!
Yayyyyy🎉
Very nice video!

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. I hope you're well too, take care 🤗💜
G.O.A.T hands down!!😳
Thanks Tony! 😊
