      Yeah it's impressive. I wonder where that penguin is right now. Probably pissed up somewhere around the Arctic circle. Good luck to him.

      Alright, GOOD one. You have 69 likes and I'm going to just leave it at that because I'm 12 years old, but I do like this comment.

    That’s so beautiful. I can’t wait to start my collection (I read on Kindle)

    I have a huge collection of the Penguin Orange spine books, which is their non-fiction collection. Quite a collection and such variety. Good for you.

    This was wonderful. I too collect these editions, but I don't have as many as this. I aspire to this level! I also collect various editions of Agatha Christie and the green Penguin tri-bands. I will be watching your other videos and look forward to any forthcoming ones...

  • @juliehughes1258

    Alphabetically by author. I respect that so much. Your voice is so calming and you have excellent recall of all the books you've read. And can I just say that I love the cover art on the Calvino books? That is all.

    Someone gave me a copy of The Black Cloud and it started me thinking about collecting a few more of the Penguin Modern Classics, thanks for the bookshelf talk.

    I really need to stop watching videos like. Because my list of books to buy and read keeps growing and growing and growing! Im going to end up being a book hoarder that has so many books that I won't have room!

    A wonderful and refreshing collection! I would love to get some from the spy genre, thank you for the recs. I absolutely love the cover designs of penguin moderns, although I find them to be a bit too stiff for a paperback. You seem to be interested in Italian culture, literature, is it a somewhat correct assumption?

    • @bookshelftalk
      @bookshelftalk  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks. Yes, Italy is my favourite country to visit. Love the culture, landscapes, climate etc.

    Could you go through some of your historical books on your lower shelves in another video?

    • @bookshelftalk
      @bookshelftalk  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Hi, I could go through the history books on that shelf, but there are dozens, and I haven't read many of them... Maybe I'll just pick out some favourites and talk about them.
      There will be future videos for my other collections (e.g. Penguin Classics) but I need to read them all first.
      Thanks for watching!

    DUDEE, i want to steal your book collection. how do you manage to read so many books its awesome really. maybe buy a tripod so your video wont be shaky 😹😹.

    All your books look so unread! How do you keep them that way?

    • @bookshelftalk
      @bookshelftalk  2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      I'm simply careful with them and keep them in a cool, dry place. I don't squash them into a bag or open the book too wide and damage the spine etc.
      Thanks for watching.

    Did you say the effect of the Chernobyl disaster of the people of Belarus? Chernobyl is in Ukraine?

    • @bookshelftalk
      @bookshelftalk  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Most of the radiation fell on nearby Belarus. The author is Belarusian and focuses on that country, but certainly also discusses the impact on Ukraine and the wider world.

    If you were to speak a little lower, no one at all would be able to hear your feeble attempt at audio. This includes all dogs and other types of beast's with that sort of sonic hearing going on, bats as well, maybe? Good job!!! Total sarcasm, just encase your somewhat dense, which I think the ample lack of volume on this video screams that message to the world at large very, very well as it is!!!!!!
