    I have a hard time choosing books too!! I'm mostly a mood reader, but sometimes it's still hard to pick. The Mother of All Problems is on my TBR as well, thanks to BookTube!

      I’m glad I’m not alone! Why is it so hard though? 😅 I want to read them all and I will, just one at a time… Oh fun! I haven’t seen it anywhere and it had very few ratings on goodreads, so I figured it might be bit obscure. But it sounds fun in a sad kind of way ^^ Thanks for being here!

      I've only read Circe so far, but I've heard good things about Galatea from at least one person so I think it might be perfect for an April walk! 😎

      @@RyanReadsGreek Well philosophy is a part of history as well, is it not? I loved philosophy in school, although it was very frustrating because whatever you said, the teacher could always argue the complete opposite and win every time 😄

      I think some philosophy can be categorized with history, such as some of Plato's dialogues but generally speaking, although it can be historical or a shaper of history, I consider it a different genre.

      Hey Rafi, Thanks for reaching out. I’m happy as it is thanks. I would however advise you to adjust your pitch a little. Saying someone’s score is “bad” is not a great way to build a relationship or trust. You might instead give some free advice to show your expertise and good intentions. Also, this isn’t a business, which you would have known if you had watched my videos. Good luck with your endeavors and have a great day!
