I used to be a reader and somewhere along the way, I stopped reading. I want to be a reader again and I try but I keep failing to make it a habit. The more I watch these vlogs, the more I feel motivated to read so thanks for that. Hopefully, I can call myself a reader soon.
the second you read anything you’re a reader! I hope you find books you get to fall so in love with soon!!
Where i live it never snows, i have never seen snow irl atleast i can enjoy the cozy vibes .😊
“So this is getting a little out of control”-famous last words of all bibliophiles 😂 But we believe in you Emma! My winter tbr so far: Wuthering Heights (my favourite and one I love to read this time of year), War and Peace (Russian classics are perfect for the colder months imo), Melmoth, His Dark Materials, Royal Assassin (Hobb is so cosy to me), and The Hundred and One Dalmatians (which I read every year on Christmas Day) ❄️
I read Dune last month. I loved it and finished it in like 4 days! I know everyone’s had very different opinions but definitely recommend people try it
You're so consistent when it comes to posting. Always looking forward to your videos! Thanks for making our days better, Emma :) you deserve the world! xoxo
Also for December TBR, if you have never read it, I'd really recommend A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett! It's a classic novel, a touching story about discrimination and class.
Edit: since I discovered that you have read A Little Princess, then I'd recommend
A Little Life (Hanya Yanagihara), although it has SO MANY trigger warnings. It would be a perfect gloomy book to read in the winter, nonetheless. Girls in the Dark or Ankaku Joshi (Akiyoshi Rikako) is a perfect murder mystery to read in the winter - I really did not expect the plot twist at all. Last recommendation would be Hiroshima Joe (Martin Booth), this one is VERY disturbing, even more so than A Little Life (it has many trigger warnings as well, that I am hesitant to type here). The main character is not meant to be likable - and I find one scene at the end of the book particularly disturbing that I had to put the book down, but it was so devastating and it had the message that wars bring nothing but pain and trauma.
She recommended it in a previous video! I actually picked it up because of that, and enjoyed it. 😊 Though it was definitely a product of its time, with its racist & classist undertones.
@@chiroptophilia i never knew she recommended it! thank you for confirming. and yes of course, the racist and classist undertones of that period are inevitable.. sadly
I used to read A Christmas Carol every year before Christmas. It's so cozy and nostalgic 🥰
This blazer is so cute :)
I love the winter too partly because I don’t feel guilty about never leaving the house 🤣 ❄️The snow here keeps melting - hoping this week it will start sticking around and I can get some cozy reading vibes
That jacket and lipstick combo is so cute I can’t even 💅
yesss!! i absolutely loved these 23 magical wintry minutes with you emmie
you’re too kind thank you beautiful🥰
I can't wait to hear your thoughts on Dune (book and movie)! Also, every time you pass the Eye of the World I hope you pick it up; it's such a fascinating series! I'm reading Brothers Karamazov this December :)
There’s seriously nothing better than starting my morning with a new video from Emma!!
Emma, your videos are always so cozy! Pure perfection! ❤️
perfect, cozy video for night.
The hits keep coming! I'm still not caught up with your backlog of videos this week, post concussion syndrome and still killing it with the work ethic! Loving it!
This video just made my night. What a great start to the weekend. Thank you for the cosy vibes 🥰
You're videos are really amazing and i really look forward to watching them whenever they come out. You've honestly been really helpful in getting me properly into reading this year! If I'm in a bad mood, you're one of those channels I always go to to help cheer me up. (Also, very happy you've started Dune - one of my all time favourites. Hope you like it!)
The winter vibes in this video are inmaculate
Another video that has made my day. You never fail to make me smile or brighten my day, I love you and I cannot wait to pick up some of the books you have spoken about in this video. You are so inspirational ♥️⭐
your vibe is just so comforting
This vid is everything. Thank you for the recommendations and the gezelligheid and your calm, happy spirit! 🥰
Love your tbr, Emma! The Enchanted Sonata, Midnight in Everwood and, of course, A Christmas Carol are in my list too. I'll love to see the video about the Agatha's book! Wish i could have a winter like yours in Rio!💖❄🎄✨
Ah can’t wait to read them alongside you! 🥰
I've allowed myself a break from books for the next few weeks, because I've put so much of my energy into reading this year. feels refreshing! can't wait to read some of these though, thanks for the recs!
I love that you post so much it makes me happy
I'm so envious, I live in a tropical country all my life, never experienced winter at all... AHHHHHHHHH
always imagined a perfect wintery night to be buried under a soft blanket on a cozy sofa in front of a fireplace with a book on my lap and some hot cocoa on one hand...
You always inspires me to read I'm also currently looking for a book that perfect for Christmas and you posted this video. You always made our day Emmie. I love your videos, it's very very beautiful and cozy.
The Grand Budapest Hotel was a good watch,and Ralph Fiennes directed a very enjoyable biopic of the ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev:White Crow.❤️
im really excited to start with my december tbr, its my birthday month as well so im planning on re-reading my favorite books and new some books that i think will soon join my list of favorites
Emma I love your happiness at it snowing. I never see snow in Australia like you have, I think it would be so wonderful to be in Toronto on a snowy day and to see the world turn into a Christmas card.
Hey, I hope you're doing well ... Just wanted you to know that your vlogs feels like a huge & warm hug to me =). Thank you for making these cozy videos. wish you all the best💙🦋
Ur room is so incredibly cozy
There is so much joy in choosing Christmas reads or just planning anything in general for December. Such a beautiful month even though I live in a tropical area and there is no winter here
i love how you made dune seem almost cozy
i have 86 pages left and it’s one of my favorite books ever
I loved this TBR - I also ordered Stella’s Reading Journal, can’t wait to get it! Xo
Oh my gosh I looove the snow
I live in the tropics so no snow here but winter is still my fave season whenever I get to travel to the north
your videos are like so cozy. I really love them, specially now that I'm in starting my final exams in college and I'm so stressed. thank you
Yes!!! This is what I'm waiting for❤❤❤
This was easily my most anticipated video
For the Wolf sounds amazing! I just saw it was on sale as an ebook. Immediately bought it. I'll either read it in December or January. My TBR pile is growing and growing.
You're litterally my comfort TH-camr, your videos bring me so much warmth and happiness
I picked up For the Wolf recently and am thrilled you have that on your TBR. As a lover of fairy tale adaptations, I am excited to read it too!
Yay! Saw this just after coming back from studying for tests. Thanks for posting at such immaculte time
I plan to read Rebecca this month, I have already started it and I'm enjoying it so far. Hope you have a lovely day!
i wish we had snow here already as well! can´t wait for the first snow! i am not a big chistmas themed book reader but i decided to read A Christmas Carol this month, very much looking forward to it. i have read Dune recently and even tho it was a bit complex at times, i ended up really enjoying it, especially the politics and intrigues. merry reading!
Just finished reading The Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey and really liked it! It's not my usual type of book but I ended up binge reading it in 3 days and rating 4 stars ❄🌲
The snow in England is not much but its sooooo cold. I got the Enchanted Sonata / Snow and Rose for Christmas presents and I WANT THEM !!
I love your videos, you always give very good book recommendations and you made me fall in love with reading again :)
Oh my goodness - I spot The Ice Palace on your shelf. I read this in summer (haha) but I felt like I was in the depths of a Norwegian winter. Breathtakingly beautiful: you’ve got to read it!!!!!!!!!!!
Chess and Confusion are my two favourite Zweig books!!! So good.
these are such cozy reads! i've been looking for snowy-set stories since I live in a place that does not get snow, so I'm def gonna try and pick up Midnight in Everwood and The Enchanted Sonata. I'm also trying to finish Dune this December, and start The Brothers Karamazov just because I think winter is the perfect season to read long russian classics.
Yay! Cannot wait to hear your thoughts on for the Wolf 🥰
Pretty rainy where this cat lives - cold and rainy which is very perfect for sleeping on books - something cats have an affinity for, obviously. Enjoying "Chill Tidings - Dark tales of the Christmas season" at the moment after finishing "Spirit of the Season". Next short story collection will be "Sunless Solstice".
"Christmas Carol" is a reread each Yule time - and it is always glorious.
Planning is not something cats do very much - so December will tell what books to enjoy - random, yes random is a very precious word for this cat. That and warm blankets of course.
Teeth and Mists
My cat always ends up sleeping on my books 😻
that was so sweat and heartwarming. i am currently reading wuthering heights with looks good for december, i will read christmas carol with you guys and i am excited for this, i wanna read Hercule Poirot's Christmas too, an also daddy long legs. this is my plan for december >
I’m glad you are read book of the month.
Also you look lovely Emma, everything about your look works beautifully for you❤️
I love "the castle in the snow" by Kerstin Gier, especially because I am from switzerland and I used to work in a hotel. I try to read this book every year around christmas. Thank you for all your amazing videos!
Living my dream I see haha, I’m so excited to reread it🥲
i just love you and your little book videos. I'm reading these book side by side with you. take care:)
💚 it's good to see you.
As someone who doesn't like the cold, winter is not my favorite season but I can't deny that the vibes are wholesome
💕 Thank you for always making amazing videos, they always make me smile 😇
Winter, that Christmas vibe
love the wintery vibes of your tbr! i gotta make a move on my dec tbr! lol :)
I loved For the Wolf and I'm looking forward to the sequel.
Next Friday I have a final exam and then I'm free! So exciting to think about all the books I'm gonna read! Thanks for the recs 💜
Emmaaaa make up looks so good on you!!!
better to be smooth on that transition from dune to wintry reads, that could be a thermal shock 😂
You're reading Dune 🥺 Yay! ♥️
So exited to see Stefan Zweig in your shelf! I love his writing (altough because I am german, i never read a translation) and especially chess is an astonishing book and a nice start into his literature!
Zweig is biggest literature discovery in my life! "Beware of pity" is one of best books I've ever read. And his novels are so good, I just love it. I'm from Russia and here I recommend him to all my friends.
oh my god just found your channel and i'm addicted! this was such a cute tbr video, new subscriber~ 🥺
Your videos constantly get me out of a reading slump
I’m reading Hercule Poirot Christmas too I’m so excited for it!
AHHHHH did I just spot the kitchen princess??! That series was my entire childhood in middle school ❤️❤️🥺
The Enchanted Sonata is so good! I hope you'll like it 💛 I'm also hoping to read Midnight in Everwood this month, it's one of my most anticipated releases of the year!
These videos are amazinggg
love these videos!!
lol I'm literally on page 136 of Dune myself! Bought it as a self birthday gift, after watching the movie I just couldn't stop myself from reading the book. Welcome to the Dune-verse Emma!
Nicely decorated
I'm so excited for all the wintry and magical reads! and this was such a lovely way to start my birthday ❤❤❤
Happy birthday :)
@@melissaxo9343 thank you so much ♡
Ah happiest of birthdays to you💙
@@emmiereads thank you, emma ;_;
it was so lovely to start the day watching your video♡♡♡
you're literally the one channel i look forward to every night like i just wake up to see if you have uploaded and my night will immediately be better :) my current reads are 100 Years of Solitude and I'm listening to the Born A Crime audiobook
Born a crime is a GREAT listen!
@@lynncornelissen i'm loving it i can't stop listening to it!
I just love it here🥰💘
excited to see you're reading mr. dickens and his carol!! i thought the last few chapters were super lovely
Omg!! I’m currently reading Dune! I tend to stay away from Sci-Fi, but I’ve been loving it so far.
I'm also planning to read A Christmas Carol, I want to read it on Xmas eve. Winter is definite the time for big fantasy books
Such a cozy video! I love snowy days and rainy ones too. They are my faves. ok my tbr is a Christmas Carol ( hopefully it comes in on time), currently reading the Dark Shadows day book and I'm loving it ( if you're a fan of the original Dark Shadows series it's a great and fun read! 🥰🦇). Then after that I want to start Gone with the Wind and that should take me through December into January. Then in January I want to read the sequel to Gone with the Wind which is Scarlett and then the newest book in the Outlander series Go tell the Bees that I'm gone. Whew! Big books on this list but I'm so looking forward to them for cozy season! Sending love and hugs!! 🥰❤️💚
Picking up Midnight in Everwood & A Christmas Carol this December cause of you!! So excited to hear your review with Dickens vs. Tolstoy :)
Oh my goodness - I spot The Ice Palace on your shelf. I read this in summer (haha) but I felt like I was in the depths of a Norwegian winter. Breathtakingly beautiful: you’ve got to read it!!!!! (Maybe January/February?) Also Chess -it will fly by in half an hour but will stay with you forever.
I'm quite new to your channel. I'm so enjoying your vibe. So positive, realistic and I find your taste seems to work with mine. Love your videos! 🌻
I'm picking up Jane Eyre after finishing The Silent Patient. Looking forward to getting back into a classic.
What a lovely video !
I'm currently reading 'El Principe de la Niebla' and 'Le Grand Meaulnes' and about to go onto 'Pride and Prejudice.
~I speak Spanish so I'm reading the first one to keep my Spanish fresh and I'm learning French so I'm reading a simplified version of the French classic of the same name.
Enjoy your videos, new subscriber. My favorite month to read is Dec. also! I always have a cup (mug) of tea when I read. I just finished a Jenny Colgan book "The Christmas Bookshop" it was hard to get into for the reason you mentioned, but I was glad I finished it. Really liked it. Thought her very first one was good. The name escapes me. Thanks!
Omg A Christmas Carol!! I'm totally participating this month🥰🥰
I'm also planning on starting dune soon, I decided to start on january 1st so i can track my progress easily
I am also reading dune for the first time this month
i love winter too but my winters are n o t h i n g like your snowy winters so im super jealous! its summer where i am but we've been having a lot of thunderstorms at night for the past few weeks. so i don't really do seasonal reading. my december TBR is: tender is the flesh, the hour past midnight, letters to a young poet, a little life. and im listening to history is all you left me and disfigured (a nonfiction).
I'm trying to cram in a bunch of 2021 releases before the end of the year! I'm planning on reading Klara and the Sun, My Heart is a Chainsaw, Things have gotten worse since we last spoke, and She Drives me Crazy!! Then in January, I want to try to read more classics!
Winter season,a time to be indoors
I just bought Hercule Poirot’s Christmas!! Looking forward to read it
the snow in canada earlier this week has made me the happiest!!!!!!!!!! waking up for classes early in the morning and seeing snow fall...theres no other way to explain the joy i get from it. thank you for the wonderful video again, i hope you have a great weekend emma!
Yes:’) whereabouts are you? Fingers crossed for the snowiest winter ❄️
@@emmiereads i am near the gta!!!! hoping for a very snowy december month ❄
Glad tidings of comfort and joy for another cosy Wintervlog! As Tiny Tim would say (no spoilers!) bless us one and all! The daddy of all hotel novels has to be "The Hotel New Hampshire" by John Irving. Not especially "Christmassy" but a novel I re-read every year around this time.
Yes please read Chess soon ! I somehow accidentally read it this month and I loved it and it made me want to learn so much more about Zweig! Really want to know what you'd think of it ! Also on a again, beautiful video Emma, thank you for all the cosy vibes ♥️
Yay to solving another Cristie book on TH-cam!
