arh... (sigh in relief) Finally someone who speaks in a relaxing tone.
The Siddhartha quote is beautiful! My favorite from the collection.
Finally!!!! Someone who shows the covers of the books!!!
I try to show every part of the book when I can :D
These editions are one of the most brilliant collections from Penguin! I love them... the idea of making 26 such books is INCREDIBLE! I love the close ups you filmed!!! Love you... You deserve more and more subscribers!
Thank you for your sweet comment !! 💗
Your matrioska collection😍😍😍
Yay new video! 🤗💖
Beautiful books. Wonder way to read! I'm sure you enjoy them.
Making my way through them and so far each one is excellent 💕
@@OMGGitsCAROL I ment wonderful way to read. Cool 👍
I really want to get this collection but I don’t know if it’s worth my money. I don’t know how many of those books I’d read and I’m not sure how many I’d like. (I’m a huge book collector and a huge reader but I’m not sure if I’d like all these books.)
Question: Before I buy Lord of the flies.
Are the pages glued or sown?
Sewn down :)
This collection is soooo beautiful! They probably look wonderful on your shelves. How many have you read so far? Any favorite? Any disappointment?
Sev thank you ! It is definitely my favorite shelf on my bookcase, maybe one day I’ll make a video showing a bookcase your :) so far I’m lucky that no book has disappointed me but I still have many books to get through ! Have you read any of the books mentioned in this video ? If you did that could be next on my reading list :)
Thank you for answering! I have read only a few of them Pride & Prejudice, Jane Eyre, Great Expectations, Madame Bovary, Lord of the Flies, Siddhartha, The Joy Luck Club, Candid and the Shadow of the Wind. I have not been disappointed. Tbh, I was more looking for your opinion on other books of the collection to extend my own reading list ;-) Also,. I was surprised it did not include the most famous work of these authors (like for Steinbeck, Ishiguro, Rushdie or O'Hara).
Where did you get Justane/Justine?
His name is Gustave Pronounced Gu- stave
All of these books I got from Amazon :) One seller sold all 26 in one set
Omg it’s gorgeous😍 but why can’t I find the link?
👍
Omg I loved them 😍😍😍
I honestly want to cry
No tears!
One problem...Perfect Bound and nor sewn. Gorgeous though.
What?
This video is amazing.. i need to watch it more..
thank you!! will be uploading some more book videos soon ! :D
Make me your successor.
Do you know if the paper is acid free? Thanks for the video, it was awesome 👏
I'm not entirely sure to be honest, but I sent penguin an email and if they respond I will update you :)
omggitscarol Thank you kindly 😊
The Female Self Image Revolution sorry to intrude but why is that important?
@@sausana2501 some people prefer acid free paper for collectables because then the papers don't yellow over time.
A red book with a huge "A" on the cover... and it's not The Scarlet Letter. Boo!
hahaha!!
Flaubert is pronounced FlowBear. The T is silent.
Thanks!
@@OMGGitsCAROL Werent you afraid of buying Drop Cap books that you haven't read before and then end up not liking some of them?
I only buy pretty Hard Cover editions of Novels that I've already read (and Loved) on Mass or Trade paperback . This way I'm not losing money on books I'll never read again.
I ordered the collection as a set on sale - too good to pass up haha. But all of the books came highly reviewed so I took the chance :). So far the books have been great!
@@OMGGitsCAROL That's good to hear. I'm presently reading D.H Lawrence's Sons and Lovers. It's pretty good. Have you read any Lawrence novels?
