    You have a cat named Hiccup? That is so fantastic and adorable. CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEW BOOK COMING OUT, THAT MUST BE SO EXCITING! Also, starting a new one!!!! It seems like it's some kind of fiction book, so I am now so incredibly excited to read it! Good luck, Carrie!

    Ariel Bissett had this idea on a book panel: When you buy a physical book it needs to come with a code so you can download it on an E Reader. Its perfect. This needs to be a thing.

    You are so inspiring to me. I struggle with jealousy and feelings of inadequacy quite a lot. I am being completely honest when I say I've let myself down repeatedly by not being the best that I can be. I have had so many wasted chances in my life. Note: I regret them while accepting the fact that past is past and I'm not a bad person for my flaws.
    However... one of my greatest regrets is abandoning my creativity. I used to sing solo, in choir, study guitar and piano, go to art school - I've let all of those things go and I don't feel a connection to my creativity before. This new book thing is an amazing example of how creativity feeds creativity. All your singing, songwriting, drawing, playing instruments - you are flexing one big (complex) muscle.
    I keep telling myself, tomorrow I'm going to pick up a pencil and start learning how to draw... watching you might actually get me to follow through. Thank you!

    I'm exactly the same as you. Ebooks are really useful for holidays etc BUT there's something SO BEAUTIFUL about physical books.

    Ebooks are so easy to carry and convinient and honestly an amazing invention.... However, I still haven't gotten used to mine and I've had it for a couple of months already. I use it sometimes but I feel so much more sattisfied and happy when I read a real book. I hope my collection grows as much as yours one day! xx

  • @DessMelissa
    @DessMelissa 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ohmygoodness! That signed copy is beautiful! And I totally (now that you mention it) agree with just buying a not gorgeously signed book instead of reading your signed copy, though I myself just used the library for my one signed book that was also a present especially since it's by one of my favorite authors 💚

    I'm actually reading les mis at the moment! I fell in love with the movie when I first saw it, and then with the theater production when I went to that (and got to see Carrie as Eponine, which was incredible!!) and now I'm obsessed with the book! It really is a masterpiece and I would totally recommend reading it x

  • @lunalovegood7637
    @lunalovegood7637 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Carrie, you are such a huge inspiration, just a few years ago you made a video about your goals in life and one of them was to write and publish a book and you're now planning a second one (which I really hope becomes a thing). You have achieved so many things in your life, including being an amazing actress/singer/songwriter, so thank you for giving me hope.

  • @HeatherMantica
    @HeatherMantica 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    when ever someone brings up the prospect of never needing physical books i kind of freak out. i love books i love to hold them and smell them and just embrace the pages. its a record of our past held in our hands, even fiction tells you about the history of the time it was written. flipping pages, folding down corners, being able to fall asleep with it in your arms without worrying about cracking the screen of a 100 dollar device is just so beautiful. a book becomes your friend, you take it everywhere, you wear it out, but it's ok because thats how books are supposed to be.

    @IzzieBizzie18 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I totally TOTALLY agree!! I love to hold and read a real physical heavy good smelling book, but an ebook is very handy when you're travelling. It sucks though when you're reading a book and you are really into the story and your battery dies... A real book never dies in your hands when you're reading.
    Oh and I'm very excited for your book! And I love your videos :)

    I have a Kindle, but I find that I remember things better if I read them from a physical book or a physical piece of paper than if I read them on a Kindle or on my laptop. Has anybody else experienced this? It happens to be that I do have a very good memory for details, and I think part of how I form memories as I read is by seeing the words on a particular spot on a page: I usually remember where exactly on a page (left, right, top or bottom) an item appeared, and because the Kindle doesn't use pages that way, I think it throws me off. Anyone else feel this?

  • @NaomichatswithAngus
    @NaomichatswithAngus 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I really like my kindle and it's helped me get back into reading in a huge way. I've gone from reading a couple of books a year to 40+, which is a combination of ebooks and physical books. But after a year of mainly reading on my kindle I do miss real books with their colourful covers all lined up on a bookshelf and browsing books online is never ever going to be as enjoyable as browsing in a book shop, except that I can do it in bed :)

    Ever since I got a Kindle, I have been reading at least 100 books a year. No joke. It is so fantastic to be able to buy sequels RIGHT AWAY so you never have to wait to know what happens. I love my Kindle so much :)

  • @meganmccully4437
    @meganmccully4437 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have a Kindle but I've only ever bought two books that I knew I wasn't going to particularly like anyway. I'm like that with movies and tv shows and music too - a lot of my friends watch shows online and meanwhile I'm patiently waiting for the next season to come out on DVD so I can catch up... I like being surrounded by the art and stories I love, instead of having them in a series of 0s and 1s on a piece of a hardware.
    When I got my fancy hardback version of Great Gatsby I promptly spilled my tea all over it, and my huge flowery fancy Jane Eyre copy is covered with strawberry juice (it smells great though). I feel the struggle, Carrie! Xx

  • @markwelsby3650
    @markwelsby3650 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I know what you mean about e-books. I resisted kindle for years,and then I wanted to read the Charles Paris books and found they were only available on kindle so I had to get one. Now I love it. I like the convenience,not having to carry my book around and risk it getting damaged. I also tend to read quite large,and thus heavy,books and the kindle is so much lighter. The only thing is it tends to be more expensive,because when I really like a book I want a physical copy as well as the kindle edition. If it’s a really well illustrated book the illustrations are not as effective on kindle. And a kindle doesn’t reproduce the wonderful way that books smell.

  • @SpontaneousFirework
    @SpontaneousFirework 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I bought myself a kindle a couple of years ago and personally I love it. It's really useful because, obviously, I can take lots of books with me without them taking up space and adding extra weight. After getting it I started buying any new books I wanted on kindle because they were cheaper and it was more convenient, especially since I'd almost completely filled up my bookshelves. However, I was given an actual book for Christmas this year and in the process of reading that I realised that I had in fact missed having a physical copy of a book so I've recently started reading proper books again. I still love my kindle and am continuing to read ebooks but it's also really nice to read a physical copy of a book sometimes so I'm a fan of both.

    I love to read books on my iPhone or iPad. I like that I can choose the size of the font so I can make it really big when I'm tired and I love that when I find a word I don't know I just highlight the word and can get a definition right away. But I prefer to shop for physical books. I like looking at the covers and reading the blurbs. I can't wait to read your book in a couple months. Stay awesome!

    ATTENTION (not a self promo, i promise... its something much, much better!)
    Everyone who lives in London - or anywhere with a functional transportation system - should learn how to make origami dragons (or anything else origami) and then leave them on the trains or buses with their twitter or instagram name on the thing that they left. (It could even be just their name and a little note.) Then, if another hopeful finds it, they can follow whatever handle the person left and it would be such an awesome way to show the power of the hopeful nation.
    We could call it operation: hopeful or something.
    Whoever sees this and thinks it is a good idea, give it a thumbs up so more people can see it and we can actually make this thing happen.
    Imagine how funny it would be for Carrie to find all of these dragons on her way to les mis! XD Please, please let this be possible!

  • @owlyhatgirl
    @owlyhatgirl 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would say my book purchases these days are about 75% ebooks to 25% actual books. The ebooks started to become more handy when I started running out of bookshelf space and wanting to buy even more books/take more books out with me. Now my kindle is the perfect solution and I still buy physical books on occasion too.
