You should read it I’ve never read it either and I barely bought the book and I’m already halfway done with it the book really pulls you in with everything that’s happening
This is weird, but I love the way Ariel just talks about books. This video has like no cuts in it, it’s just an uninterrupted stream of beautiful words from a beautiful person. obsessed 😌
YES! Not in all cases, but with most, I feel like rants/ discussions with cuts feels a little robotic and takes away from the realistic human experience of socialising...

It's midnight here in India and this is when i choose to watch booktube videos and get my life together because booktubers are wholesome and their lives are put together. they are. I said what I said. ✨🌻
I loved it when I first read it and it is still one of my favourite books, but when i reread it I didn‘t enjoy it that much. I don’t know why, i guess im just not a rereading person
Not all of us talk that way. Seems like she is exaggerating it. But I have only lived in BC,,,, yet I have never heard any other Canadians pronounce it that way.
@@bugs1729 It's likely that she's not exaggerating. If you live in BC that makes sense, most of the stereotypical Canadian accents are common on the East Coast where I'm from.
aristotle and dante is the only book ever that i immediately reread after finishing it for the first time. i read the last page, was emotional for 5 seconds, then started again lmao also 172 hours really is so fun, it made me gasp :D
While I student taught, I had a group of 10th grade boys read Ready Player One. I have never seen a group of 15 year olds so still, silent, and engrossed in a book lol. It’s a fantastic and addicting read for sure!
'books that should be mandatory reading for all humans' sounds like a really cool video! I would recommend My Dark Vanessa by Kate Elizabeth Russell, especially the audiobook because I can't stop listening to it and find myself thinking about it when I'm not reading ❤️
Albatross Ready player one Hunger games Aristotle and Dante discover secret of universe 172 hours on the moon So you've been publicly shamed With malice Bastard In real life
You know Ariel, Albatross, the way you describe it reminds me of that episode of Lizzie McGuire where she is picked out by the gym teacher because she realises how great Lizzie is at gymnastics and she wins these trophies but Lizzie's heart is not into it. Your videos are so warm. Love you 💕
I loved Aristotle and Dante discover the secrets of the universe! It’s one of my favorite book of all time and I have reread it multiple times and never could put it down!☺️🖤
OMG! I just finished rereading 'Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe' last night on 5th day of national lockdown here in India. Thanks for all the recommendations :-)
For nonfiction, I recommend "The Road Back to You". Talks about the 9 different personalities and the downsides to each one. Helps you understand people. Good book!
this was the first book recommendations video I’ve ever watched where I genuinely wanted to read every book on the list!! (and i’ve seen my fair share) thanks so much😊

Ariel, when you talk about books you love, you don’t just talk about them. You embody them, and talk about them with such passion that it makes me wanna go to the bookstore ASAP or order them online! You are the reason I love Orwell. I would’ve never picked him up otherwise. I mean, even if I didn’t end up liking a book you recommended, just the way you describe your love for the authors and it’s contents, makes me wanna read and then some. Thank you for being a genuine person and for being yourself. To me personally, you are unlike any other booktuber and I follow a lot of them, and even though I do love certain booktubers, I never comment, but with you, I just had to ! I guess I’m trying to say that I’m so grateful for you and your videos. They truly encourage me. ❤️
A book that I've read a couple of time that I never am able to stop reading is The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzie Lee. I don't know, it's just a funny, wild ride that I fall in love with every time I let my eyes fall over the pages.
Aristotle and Dante was incredible, I read it as part of a character study for creative writing and I didn't think I would like it, but it was so real and pure and just ahhh
Thank you for this! :) Also just wanted to note that this week I got it approved to WRITE MY MASTERS DISSERTATION ON THE HUNGER GAMES AND HARRY POTTER, and there is a surprising amount of legitimate (whatever that means) scholarship on THG. It's FASCINATING.
"Dear Sugar" is such an amazing book. I was gifted the book in a very dark time in my life and I read it cover to cover. It gave me a new perspective on loss, love, and figuring out life. Good read good pick.
Book recs!: 1. The Red Badge of Courage: Stephen Crane 2. A Woman of No Importance: Sonia Purnell 3. G.O.T. Book series: George RR Martin 4. Man on Wire: Philippe Petit 5. Out of My Mind: Sharon Draper ;) Hope this helps!
Bingable CLASSICS recomendation: "Star Rover" by Jack London. In a way it's perfect for quarantine and escapism - it's about a man in a prison in 1890s, who to escape the tortures of straight-jacket mentally travels back to his previous lives, where he's a sailor stranded on deserted island, a Viking who happens to become Roman officer and befriend Pontius Pilate, young boy in America whose community is religiously persecuted, etc. I couldn't put this book down first time I've read - I remember sitting next to kitchen table at 3am and flying through pages❤
@@wrinkleintime4257 I hope you will enjoy it! It can be overwhelming at times (as prisoner descrives his experience of what basically is a torture), but it's a great read overall! There is lot of interesting ideas and reflections in each "life", and the plot is also very engaging!
My mom asked today for recommendations for my brother so we can support our local independent bookstore, I already got 3 books from them a week and a half ago and plan on ordering a gift for a friend there, I’m glad we’re both supporting it😂
You’ve just inspired me to do a reread of The Hunger Games. They’re not happy or particularly comforting, but they were books I truly loved as a teenager and reading them feels like I’m wrapping myself up in a giant blanket of nostalgia
I recommend Eileen by Ottessa Moshfegh, little fires everywhere by Celeste Ng, The Plague by Albert Camus, the ocean at the end of the lane by Neil Gaiman and Wilder Girls by Rory Power 🤎
You can tell she was given the blessing of being able to what she is passionate about and being successful with it. Props to this girl, I love the way you talk about these books, makes the video stand out than others. '
Book recommendation: Whole by T.Colin Campbell This book is about rethinking nutrition and about eating a whole plant based diet. It talks about how the health system is flawed and how such a diet can be beneficial for our bodies, our environment and for the animals. It is a very great read and easy to understand and comprehend. Even though we are in a pandemic right now, I think we could all benefit from learning how to eat a healthy diet. Btw have a nice day to however reads this :)
Three years ago, booktube made me read Aristotle and Dante and now its my favourite book. I'll never stop being grateful to all of you for introducing me to this absolute gem.
A Girl with the Pearl Earring by Tracy Chevalier is one of my absolute fave and I have never seen a TH-camr talk about it. It might be up your alley, Ariel. :) It was addicting and insightful I still think about it to this day.
"The One" by John Marr... What happens if they can tell you who your soulmate is with a DNA test, what if your soulmate isn't good?... So good! I'm still thinking about 6 months later
Sometimes i just keep watching book reccomendations instead of reading. I would litterally have 50 books on my tbr and then i go like "mmm i have some free time oke time to find some more books to read"
HPJOO Editz I do the same thing! 😂 One way I’ve gotten past that, a little, is to download the free sample on Kindle. It often makes me want to either forget about or go purchase the book.
I bought Aristotle and Dante like two weeks ago, and I’ve reread it about three times already and I have also read it aloud to my little sister. This book has changed my life. Everything you have said about it, is completely true. Its engrossing, emotional, and so much more. I don’t normally get so attached to books, but this book completely took over my whole being. It’s honestly just amazing!
Anyone else feel like we’re watching broadcasts from The Capitol as we’re stuck in our homes in one of the Districts as all these celebrities are going live from their mansions online everyday?? I can’t be the only one seeing hunger games similarities during this crazy pandemic lockdown?
i’m definitely not into golf, but I’ve also heard Albatross mentioned in a podcast and now from you - going to have to give it a try. great video!! thank you 😊
Me: "having over 40 books that I haven't read on my shelfs, and also just order 16 new books" I dont need to add more books for my next read Also me: "sees a book recomend video" well I guess just one more recommendation...
This video got recommended to me and I haven’t picked up a book in a while so I though “let’s see what she’s got” and I immediately subscribed. You have an incredibly effortless personality and I was super engaged!! Thanks for the recommendations 💛
When I checked Albatross on Amazon, the same books she mentioned also appeared in the "Customers who viewed this item also viewed these digital items" section.
another fiction book you'll fly through: more than this by patrick ness. it's really nice and keeps you on the edge of your seat. nice concept, nice characters, action packed etc
I just finished the Hunger Games this morning!! I had never read it and I'm SO happy I finally did! It definitely deserves to be on this list because I could not put it down! Now I feel like I've made a mistake though because I don't own the rest of the series, but thank you for recommending Libby so I can at least read the ebooks!
Reason for Hope by Jane Goodall is a great book about empathy and compasion. She has such a calming energy that it translates to her writing. The book is an autobiography and it is so good! Even while telling her story she makes sure to leave something good in every experience. PS: sorry if I made any mistakes, this is it not my first language
"Everyone has read The Hunger Games!" Me: ... hides in shame because she still hasn't read it...and even owns it 🙄🤦🏼♀️ I know, I know. Lol I promise I will read it 😂
Ashley Gates I feel you girl , I read the first book and my god the writing and style is so beautiful , I keep wanting to read the second but I keep forgetting about it , I also didn’t watch the second and third movie !!!
The first one was amazing I finished it in a day and a quarter. The second one was meh. The third one- sis I wanted to voooooomit. Yeah. My friend told me that the author once said that her biggest regret is writing the hunger games and I agree.
1. Albatross by Terry Falis 2. Ready player one by Ernest Cline 3. The hunger games by Suzanne Collins 4. Dante and aristotle discover the secrets of the universe by Benjamín Alire Sáenz 5. 172 hours on the moon by Johan Harstad 6. With malice by Eileen Cook 7. So you've been publicly shamed by Jon Ronson 8. Tiny Beautiful Things: Advice on Love and Life from Dear Sugar by Cheryl Strayed 9. Bastard by Max de Radiguès
I swore you were going to include My Year of Rest and Relaxation. I just ordered it because of your recommendation (along with a puzzle and legos) and I can not wait to get my hands on it. I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy!
172 hours on the moon sounds like something kayla from booksandlala would love (space training). went to goodreads to check whether she has read it or not, and she hasnt.
I feel the exact same way about Cheryl Strayed's book. Her advice is mind-blowingly wise, empathetic, and empowering. Just found you and I'm loving your videos!!!
I just finished rereading the Hunger Games series! Based on that recommendation and others, I trust you 100%! Adding all of the books I haven’t read to my Goodreads now!
Quarantine tip: There's a free app called "anybooks" (if you don't find it in the store you can find it on Google to download) with thousands of free ebooks (recent ones&classics). I use it all the time to read on my phone and it's really helpful during quarantine💜
Just stumbled across this video and ordered every single book you recommended. MY LIBRARY WILL NEVER BE THE SAME! I love hearing from people who love books and it's clear that you're squarely in that category of bibliophiles. Thank you for sharing your passion!
If you can't find the physical book, you can try finding it in kindle or you can download and find the book on the app called 'AnyBooks', it's an app that offers free e-copies of a variety of books.
“everyone has read the hunger games” me, someone who has never read it: 👁👄👁
You should! Its amazinggg 🤩🔥
You should read it I’ve never read it either and I barely bought the book and I’m already halfway done with it the book really pulls you in with everything that’s happening
Shame on you

It's been on my to-read list FOREVER .... One day I'll read the series...
This is weird, but I love the way Ariel just talks about books. This video has like no cuts in it, it’s just an uninterrupted stream of beautiful words from a beautiful person. obsessed 😌
Beatriz I same
YES! Not in all cases, but with most, I feel like rants/ discussions with cuts feels a little robotic and takes away from the realistic human experience of socialising...
LMAOOOOO 🤣
Somehow didn't notice there were no cuts, oh my goodness!!! Awesome lol
Honestly, the way you talk about books.. you could recommend me a grocery store catalog and I would read it lmao
Completely agree!

Sarah Folger i hate it.
I was looking for this comment haha
They sound normal to me ;)
@@sarahm1779 ok
I never noticed how different Canadian “Abouts” were, until I watched a show called Being Erica😂
"There is nothing more exciting than a book."
Amen.
I love books, so I toatally understand.
Whats your favorite?
Desislava Popova A partner that loves you.
It's midnight here in India and this is when i choose to watch booktube videos and get my life together because booktubers are wholesome and their lives are put together. they are. I said what I said. ✨🌻
They really are
I don’t think our lives are as together as our bookshelves make it seem, but I’m still glad we can bring you some fun videos ✨
i second that. Also from India
Ayy team India!
Saleem Sinai is that you
i ve re read aristotle and dante so many times over the years, it s such a wonderful book. it fills my heart each time
Giovanna Saturni I really need to do a reread soon!
@@ArielBissett I just finished rereading it two days ago and it was so wonderful and I reread it because of your Goodreads review of the book.
I loved it when I first read it and it is still one of my favourite books, but when i reread it I didn‘t enjoy it that much. I don’t know why, i guess im just not a rereading person
She'd be such a fun librarian, she's so enthusiastic talking about books. Love it!
Me: I wonder where she's from
Ariel: About
Ah Canada yes?
AdonisGaming93 that was me in another video haha
*Canada, eh? ;)
Not all of us talk that way. Seems like she is exaggerating it. But I have only lived in BC,,,, yet I have never heard any other Canadians pronounce it that way.

aristotle and dante is the only book ever that i immediately reread after finishing it for the first time. i read the last page, was emotional for 5 seconds, then started again lmao
also 172 hours really is so fun, it made me gasp :D
I did the same thing!
I wanted to feel like way but I just felt meh. Sad times. 😂
Yes! The only book i’ve read form start to finish in one sitting. Love it so much.
for me it's the only book i read twice and plan on rereading. It's just... so good ugh
ME TOO!! i read it in a day because i simply couldn’t bear the thought of putting it down!!!
While I student taught, I had a group of 10th grade boys read Ready Player One. I have never seen a group of 15 year olds so still, silent, and engrossed in a book lol. It’s a fantastic and addicting read for sure!
'books that should be mandatory reading for all humans' sounds like a really cool video! I would recommend My Dark Vanessa by Kate Elizabeth Russell, especially the audiobook because I can't stop listening to it and find myself thinking about it when I'm not reading ❤️
I had that too with My Dark Vanessa! It's rather distressing but I couldn't stop thinking about it, even after finishing it.
I started the audiobook. While I liked the writing, I couldn't get into the audiobook at all. Didn't like the narrator's voice or pronunciation.
That really sounds like a wonderful video idea. Would love to see it
KateElizabeth was interviewed on BBC's The Women's Hour. Pretty good interview - worth a listen (Spotify or BBC Sounds)
I just uploaded a similar video on my channel. Would love it if you can show some support by checking my content out and subscribe if you find value!

The Perks of Being a Wallflower is such a gorgeous book its one of my favorites so i would recommend that one
Yes definitely!!!
Breaks my heart every time I read it. Such a beautiful book.
Having read both Ready Player One and The Hunger Games recently, I can confirm YES THEY ARE AMAZINGGGG!!
Lauren Kiss yay! That’s awesome to hear because it has been quite a few years since I read them!!!
hunger games is just so engrossing. i love the writing style, and the concept. everything is just so perfect.
"they don't interact with people anymore, just avatars"
hmmmm sounds familiar
You know Ariel, Albatross, the way you describe it reminds me of that episode of Lizzie McGuire where she is picked out by the gym teacher because she realises how great Lizzie is at gymnastics and she wins these trophies but Lizzie's heart is not into it.
Your videos are so warm. Love you 💕
Aditi Sachdeva LITERALLY YES. I’ve explained it this way to people!!!!!!!!!

I finished hunger games yesterday here in India's lockdown 😀
For nonfiction, I recommend "The Road Back to You". Talks about the 9 different personalities and the downsides to each one. Helps you understand people. Good book!
your nailpolish matches so well with the cover of "so you've been publicly shamed"!
i love how you talk about 'not popular on booktube' books! its so refreshing.

Lucas I’ve also re-read this like twice and it’s just great I love it more every time.
Rebekah Grace ya I was gonna keep going with the sequel but my library app didn’t have it 😢
I like how you can explain the book without giving away too much spoilers
Aristotle and Dante was incredible, I read it as part of a character study for creative writing and I didn't think I would like it, but it was so real and pure and just ahhh
I am so happy youtube finally said: Welcome my child... to BookTube
'Edutainment! As they say...'
I love Ariel's enthusiasm. It makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.
Yes I recently reread The Hunger Games!!! It is such a masterpiece and the way it is written and Katniss' inner monologue it's just brilliant!
Thank you for this! :) Also just wanted to note that this week I got it approved to WRITE MY MASTERS DISSERTATION ON THE HUNGER GAMES AND HARRY POTTER, and there is a surprising amount of legitimate (whatever that means) scholarship on THG. It's FASCINATING.
I read the hunger games in one day during a hurricane so truly a perfect time to circle back to it

Best books about compassion & empathy: The Kite Runner, A Thousand Splendid Suns
Isabella Esposito I read the Kite Runner for school two years ago and it bothered me so much that like half of the class didn’t read/ hated it :(
I love the kite runner so much. My friend and I just fell in love with Hassan's character
YES OMG
We read it in grade 10 for english and we loved it
The Kite Runner made me bawl my eyes out. The story still stays with me even years after reading it.

Since Netflix has all of the movies I’ve been re-reading the hunger games trilogy and re-watching the movies right after
one of the best books i’ve ever read was “we were liars” it’s AMAZING i can’t say much bc i don’t wanna spoil but it is a great read
16:43 Your nails matching "So you've been publicly shamed." Too good! :')
I recently ordered Albatross after hearing you rave about it on your podcast! I can't wait till it arrives!
"The One" by John Marr... What happens if they can tell you who your soulmate is with a DNA test, what if your soulmate isn't good?... So good! I'm still thinking about 6 months later

This video got recommended to me and I haven’t picked up a book in a while so I though “let’s see what she’s got” and I immediately subscribed. You have an incredibly effortless personality and I was super engaged!! Thanks for the recommendations 💛
When I checked Albatross on Amazon, the same books she mentioned also appeared in the "Customers who viewed this item also viewed these digital items" section.
you always make me so excited about books
another fiction book you'll fly through: more than this by patrick ness. it's really nice and keeps you on the edge of your seat. nice concept, nice characters, action packed etc
I just finished the Hunger Games this morning!! I had never read it and I'm SO happy I finally did! It definitely deserves to be on this list because I could not put it down! Now I feel like I've made a mistake though because I don't own the rest of the series, but thank you for recommending Libby so I can at least read the ebooks!
Reason for Hope by Jane Goodall is a great book about empathy and compasion. She has such a calming energy that it translates to her writing.
The book is an autobiography and it is so good! Even while telling her story she makes sure to leave something good in every experience.
PS: sorry if I made any mistakes, this is it not my first language
"Everyone has read The Hunger Games!"
Me: ... hides in shame because she still hasn't read it...and even owns it 🙄🤦🏼♀️
I know, I know. Lol I promise I will read it 😂
Ashley Gates I feel you girl , I read the first book and my god the writing and style is so beautiful , I keep wanting to read the second but I keep forgetting about it , I also didn’t watch the second and third movie !!!
Ur missing out
hi we have the same last night but WHAT ARE YOU DOING READD THEMMM 💕💕💕
I've owned them for years too and still haveny read them 🙈😆
The first one was amazing I finished it in a day and a quarter. The second one was meh. The third one- sis I wanted to voooooomit. Yeah. My friend told me that the author once said that her biggest regret is writing the hunger games and I agree.
A book I will recommend is "Carrie" by Stephen King, the book just sucked me in and I finished it in a day.

I swore you were going to include My Year of Rest and Relaxation. I just ordered it because of your recommendation (along with a puzzle and legos) and I can not wait to get my hands on it.
I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy!
this is my first time watching her and the way she says " about " i guess she is from Canada.
OMG Cheryl Strayed also does a podcast by the same name (Dear Sugar) and on the same content on NPR. I didn't know she had a book.
Aristotle and Dante made me so emotional. Finished it in 4 hrs because I COULD NOT put it down then immediately read it again. Fantastic book.
Your enthusiasm makes me want to pick up any book you talk about regardless if I'm into that genre/theme or not :D
oh my goodness. Your passion for these books makes my heart so happy.
172 hours on the moon sounds like something kayla from booksandlala would love (space training). went to goodreads to check whether she has read it or not, and she hasnt.
I feel the exact same way about Cheryl Strayed's book. Her advice is mind-blowingly wise, empathetic, and empowering. Just found you and I'm loving your videos!!!
I just finished rereading the Hunger Games series! Based on that recommendation and others, I trust you 100%! Adding all of the books I haven’t read to my Goodreads now!
"In Real Life" is very interesting. A book I would recommend is "How to Stay Sane in an Age of Division" by Elif Shafak.
Quarantine tip: There's a free app called "anybooks" (if you don't find it in the store you can find it on Google to download) with thousands of free ebooks (recent ones&classics). I use it all the time to read on my phone and it's really helpful during quarantine💜
Just stumbled across this video and ordered every single book you recommended. MY LIBRARY WILL NEVER BE THE SAME! I love hearing from people who love books and it's clear that you're squarely in that category of bibliophiles. Thank you for sharing your passion!
the way you talk about books is utterly amazing. instant subscribe
Hey, book recomendations on empathy: how emotions are made by Lisa Feldman Barrett, Behave by Robert Sapolsky
Question: Why is Albatross so hard to find? My library doesn't even have it....and it's out of stock almost everywhere.
If you can't find the physical book, you can try finding it in kindle or you can download and find the book on the app called 'AnyBooks', it's an app that offers free e-copies of a variety of books.
I subscribed for your home renovations but now I'm watching the book videos because your so personable in your video style.
You don’t need eyeliner. Beautiful as you are!!❤️ cute and bubbly made me smile
