I read once that the reason some people love coffee and others find it bitter is because only some people can taste tannins. Coffee (and also green tea and most red wine) is really high in tannins, so for people who do taste them it's very bitter, but people who can't taste tannins can taste all the other flavors. Personally I find coffee and other high-tannin things to be very bitter, so if I do have to drink it I add a ton of creamer and/or sugar!
my dad is allergic to coffee but he drinks straight black tea and says he misses the taste of the most bitter coffee ever 😭 he’s simply a different breed but he also drinks his tea IMMEDIATELY after pouring it and while it’s blistering hot and barely blinks. he is who i aspire to be truly
Yep, I drink my coffee black sometimes. One of the reasons being I'm literally too lazy to get the milk x'D I don't know, it might depend on the coffee. Sometimes it's just smooth enough that the bitterness doesn't bother me. And in part I think black coffee has a better scent which somehow translates to good flavour?
« The space between worlds » is an amazing novel with a unique premise and it’s beautifully written. 💕 It had so many powerful sentences I think I highlighted half of the book. 😂💋
💋 (The letters in The Color Purple are actually between two sisters who were separated, the main character Celie has a sapphic relationship with a woman named Shug that she chronicles in her letters)
I pretty much read sapphic books all the time ^_^ I just recently read A Long Way to a Small, Angry Planey and it was wonderful. I'm a sucker for the found family trope.
I take my coffee black because I like the bitterness and I'm too lazy to get sugar and non-dairy creamer lol Thanks for the recs! Super cool to see a lot of books on here that don't get a ton of hype/attention.
I drink my coffee black usually. I do also like a sugar and milk drenched coffee. To me it tastes like fruits or nuts or savory things depending on the blend and origin. But I'm also a barista so I now too much about coffee. I LOVED You Should See Me in A Crown. It was too cute. I think I might end up doing The Future of Another Timeline for the Sapphic Readathon. I still need to read Vanished Birds, I own it too. Patsy is so so good. I love Nicole Dennis-Benn. You say sapphic vampires and I'm ALL IN! Sawkill Girls is so good, I need to re-read that this year because I love books with Ace Rep that are horror-esque. Rare. The Stars and The Blackness Between Them moved me. Also that cover is beautiful. 💋 This year I read a few Sapphic things. I read Bingo Love for Queer Blackathon. I read Black Water Sister which is about a lesbian but does not feature anything about relationships. Sweet and Bitter Magic was a good sapphic fantasy. She's Too Pretty to Burn was a WILD summer vibes romance thriller. I need more. I still feel like sapphic romances are underrepresented in literature. But also I'm so aro ace that too much romance hurts to read.
A little late catching up on video watching but! I LOVE black coffee!! I started ordering coffee to keep me awake when I was DDing for my friends while watching the nhl hockey play offs at bars a few years ago, and I forgot that I ordered it by the time we were ready to leave so I would down my coffee black so I didn’t waste it. And now I love cold black coffee, but it totally is still bitter lol 😅
straight black coffee is the BEST. I RELISH IN THE BITTERNESS. also it might just be a broke student thing because i can’t afford to get fancy with cream and vanilla drizzle and everything😅 happy to see the stars and the space between them! i started reading it but had to put it down because something came up. but i was enjoying it so much! i’ll definitely be picking up again for this readathon.
I drink my coffee black because i am vegan and I got used to not using creamer - which I never used much! It can be bitter but I get a lot of the nutty flavors, etc
I prefer to take a sip of my coffee and know on the first sip that I may be getting diabetes sometime in the near future. I picked up the Future of Another TImeline a while back but haven't gotten to it yet but it sounds FANTASTIC! There are quite a few fantastic Sci-Fi books Booktube isn't hyped on enough. I recently read The Disasters by MK England and it is one that I think booktube should be raving about more for sure! Space Between Worlds was one I loved reading last year! just so good and I love it is a standalone because I read so many series.
Different roasts of coffee have different flavor profiles. I like light roasted coffee because most of that bitterness you talked about comes from burnt beans. Lighter roast coffee can sometimes be almost floral like tea and is pretty easy to drink black. Dark roast coffee definitely needs the help of sugar and creamer lol
I drink black coffee not because I like it, but because I hate coffee. I tried adding creamer once, and it didn't improve the taste at all. It just made it so that I had to drink more fluid to get the same amount of caffeine. I'll only have coffee a few times a year, and when I do, I'll let it cool off a bit and then chug the whole thing in one go. The idea is to get the suffering over with as quickly as possible
I used to drink black coffee because of my job. They would provide coffee, but there would rarely be creamer or sugar. And my sleep schedule was so erratic that it became a survival thing to drink the free coffee, no matter how it tasted. Now I'll take morning coffee with some creamer, because I like it, and damnit I'm allowed to enjoy the small things I like.
big recommend to Last Night at the Telegraph Club by Malinda Lo, it's about a Chinese-american girl growing up in San Francisco in the 1950s and discovering the lesbian bar scene, while also falling in love with a girl at her school. It was so gooood
I don't drink coffee anymore but the only way I would drink it black is if it was a dark roast. I just liked the bitter taste and also it wakes you up.
I use to not like tea and then could only with SO MUCH milk and maple syrup. and now drink it black more often or with only a little syrup. And to the lesser extent I can stomach coffee without it being torture. Long rant to say I think black coffee gotta be an acquired taste, I don't think anyone comes out of womb liking bitterness. You Should See Me In The Crown ❤❤ I can't wait for her bext book. I think it's coming out in July. Give me all the ace rep. I have been wanting to reading The Blackness Between Us for so long, that's such a cool story.
There are so many books here I want to read. I was actually looking for The Space Between Worlds when I was in the bookstore yesterday. I am sad they didn't have it, or The Ones We're Meant to Find, or like five other sapphic books I was looking for, but they did have One Last Stop and I ended up walking away with that. 💋
JESSE, you have to go ahead and read the diviners series by Libba Bray. Not only is it a lot like Seven husbands of and tipping the velvet in that it is dripping with that historical setting (like how Seven husbands was primarily in the golden age of Hollywood and Tipping the Velvet is set in Victorian London) of the 1920's, you'll be happy to know that one of the prominent protagonists is a Sapphic Ace girl who is half-Asian, half-Irish, who is also disabled. However, she doesn't come into the main story until book 2, but I did notice that she is foreshadowed in the first book.
Omg Brittany I was actually so close to recommending the great and terrible beauty series but I didn’t feel like getting them down from my tall holy grail shelves lmaoooo I’ve been DYIING to read the diviner’s and you just got me more hypr
I drink my coffee black with sugar for a few reasons. I don’t like the flavour of cream very much (I find it tastes fatty) but I also drink snickerdoodle flavoured coffee so it tastes like a cookie! Also my tum tum doesn’t do dairy lol
My bf this morning: do you want the light or dark coffee? (after putting in creamer) Light coffee: white dark coffee: beige 😂😂 so we're in the same boat as you.
It feels like Sarah Waters' books have been on my tbr list for ages because of Nicole from the channel Books & Waffles, it's a bit embarrassing that I still haven't read them :') But happy to hear that you enjoyed the book! Also love the recommendations, I have either read them or they are on my list, so that's nice 💖🌈
At 0:35 I was superhero that I drink black coffee? (Unfortunately it didn't wake me up so I don't drink coffee:) I used to enjoy that bitter but also I usually drunk it in hiking trips so maybe that was the other tests I felt
I'm so glad I decided to revive my reading this week because this is PERFECT timing! I wanted to read a whole bunch of sapphic books in June and ended up not reading at all. I have had my eye on Vanished Birds but did not know it was sapphic! So many reasons to get it 💋
i drink black coffee because it's bitterness matches my soul. i don't taste the flavors people say are in the coffee but i dislike very much the coffee when it is "stone fruit" flavors or whatever. I also just realized this is tomorrow and only some existential crisis on it being july and also realizing i can't participate this time.
I saw the title and I- 😍😍 I’m currently reading The Falling In Love Montage which is a sapphic summer romance about Irish girls! I highly recommend Girls of Paper and Fire, an own voices sapphic Malaysian inspired fantasy!💖😚
ahhhh! i'm so excited i love it ❤❤❤ 😘😘 i think I am going to try and get Patsy and/or Milkfed and maybe read the first few volumes of the gn series Heavy Vinyl
💋 Ahhh I may have read Tipping the Velvet too young but it was one of my first sapphic books and an all time favorite. This readathon also came at a perfect time since I was already in the middle of Tegan and Sara’s memoir lol
💋 Hi new (ish) sub here. Really like your vids and recommendations. I love sci fi. Always looking for new reccs. I just ordered Vanished Birds based on this video. I can't wait to read it. Thanks
I LOVE Becky Chambers' Wayfarers series and I'm so happy that you included it. Seriously though... the second book is amazing. Maybe better than the first. 😊 Loved the Space Between Worlds too. I've added a few to my TBR! ❤❤
💋💋Ooh I just finished you should see me in a crown! I really liked it, it was so cute. I’m here thinking of my physical tbr rn cuz I’m away from home and i remembered not your villain by c b lee the sequel to not your sidekick which has a sapphic main relationship in the first book and that book has an amazing amount of rep (Asian-American, latinx , lesbian, bi, trans, ace,(possibly black I can’t remember exactly what Emma’s race)) and it’s a superhero story kinda reads on the younger end of young adult but would totally recommend
This video is a delight. So many books I've loved and so many on my TBR! Looking forward to reading along with the readathon. Maybe I'll finally read The Stars Are Legion by Kameron Hurley.
i drink my coffee black but only when it’s nicely roasted because then you can taste like an undertone of the flavours if that makes sense haha? also, very excited about this readathon 🌱
Oh my goodness. Thank you for these. 😘 I’ll definitely have to watch this again and actually take notes. (As an aside, I love how many of these have purple covers. 💜)
💋💋 I loved Evelyn Hugo and The Color Purple!! I love having a sapphic readathon!! I’ll probs start Harrow the Ninth for this since it’s the only unread sapphic book I have right now (I’m currently banned from buying more books) 😭
I don't work on friday, so this readathon sounds perfect! I JUST bought future of another timeline, and slept on? I feel like I have heard about it everywhere hmm.. 💋
Ahh!!! So excited for this perfect summer 24 hour readathon💋 I read tipping the velvet in 2019 & I mistakenly brought it to work to read & it definitely felt illegal lmaooo
i take my coffee black cause i don’t like the flavor, so i’m not trynna enhance or enjoy it, just trynna stay awake. don’t know if that makes sense lol.
I know that I am coming late to this vid, BUT…..I was raised on Barako coffee from the Philippines, so American brewed coffee is so weak in comparison that it is sort of like cocoa to me….it has it’s own sweetness - subtle, but pleasant.
Hi! New subscriber here, so hopefully you covered this already. I couldn’t find it on your channel. I’m so curious about how you annotate your books, your process, etc. I think in a previous video you mentioned that sometimes your books become diaries and that resonated so much with me. Of course without sharing actual diary things, I’d love to learn more about how you annotate!
My brother always jokes about how my coffee is 90% creamer it might as well be considered a latte 💀 He drinks his black & says it's because he likes the bitter, nutty taste (and also it's smoother? Whatever that means) if that helps. I tried drinking it black once because i heard it's better for you but I too just tasted pain. 😣 Anyways, super excited for the sapphic readathon! 🏳️🌈💖💋
I’m embarrassed to admit that I started drinking black coffee because of Clary from City of Bones and eventually you get used to the taste but I do also like my coffee bitter
i’m assuming you meant july 2nd ahahaha! so excited to participate ❤️❤️
LMAO WHY AM I THE WORST!!! JULY 2nd!!!
@@JesseOnTH-cam we got what you meant! 😂
i wasnt gonna say it buuutt 😅
I take it black with like 2 sugars sometimes. 1) lactose intolerant 2) it’s bitter like my soul
I read once that the reason some people love coffee and others find it bitter is because only some people can taste tannins. Coffee (and also green tea and most red wine) is really high in tannins, so for people who do taste them it's very bitter, but people who can't taste tannins can taste all the other flavors.

This is blowing my fxng mind
my dad is allergic to coffee but he drinks straight black tea and says he misses the taste of the most bitter coffee ever 😭 he’s simply a different breed but he also drinks his tea IMMEDIATELY after pouring it and while it’s blistering hot and barely blinks. he is who i aspire to be truly
my moms the same, she'll drink boiling tea and say its 'too cold' meanwhile I needa wait 20 mins for it to cool down
I aspire to this level of heat tolerance as someone who ever so often forgets about their tea and then it's cold 😭
If he hasn't already tried it, he should try Irish Breakfast OR Russian Caravan tea. They're stronger, more bitter varieties.
Yep, I drink my coffee black sometimes. One of the reasons being I'm literally too lazy to get the milk x'D I don't know, it might depend on the coffee. Sometimes it's just smooth enough that the bitterness doesn't bother me. And in part I think black coffee has a better scent which somehow translates to good flavour?
So excited for the readathon! Still have not decided what books I’m gonna read! So love that for me, but yess cannot wait!! 😍
so stoked to be cohosting with you!♡
« The space between worlds » is an amazing novel with a unique premise and it’s beautifully written. 💕 It had so many powerful sentences I think I highlighted half of the book. 😂💋
I FREAKING CANNOOOTTTT WITH YOUR BAT JOKE. i've said it before and i'll say it til i die. YOU'RE LUCKY I LOVE Y'ALL.
Jesse's recommendations AKA my shopping list. Literally. 💋💋💋

Patsy broke my heart in such a great way. And Stars and the Blackness Between Them was so amazing! My TBR is exploding with the rest. 😍
I take my coffee black because I like the bitterness and I'm too lazy to get sugar and non-dairy creamer lol
Thanks for the recs! Super cool to see a lot of books on here that don't get a ton of hype/attention.
I loved Sarah Waters Fingersmith so I'm definitely going to try Tipping the Velvet. Its been languishing on my shelf for too long!
It is a GEM

Always here for some more sapphic reads! I read Some Girls Do by Jennifer Dugan recently and it was good 🙂.
Sawkill Girls is one of my favourites too! I want to recommend Plain Bad Heroines but I feel like it would be a challenge for a 24hr readathon!
💋💋💋
i loveeee the cover for the vanished birds
💋💋💋 CAN'T WAIT TO STAY UP SUPER LATE WITH Y'ALL AND DO THE DAMN THING.
The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet has been on my tbr for a while, but I had no idea it was sapphic, I'll have to read it soon!

I drink black cold brew every morning! I do intermittent fasting so I'm only able to drink water and black coffee/tea in the morning.
I never knew The Color Purple was sapphic! I’ll definitely have to move it up my TBR now
straight black coffee is the BEST.

if you liked Tipping the Velvet, definitely try Sarah Waters' other book Fingersmith its a masterpiece one of my favourite books of all time
Omg I put it on my wishlist!! Tysm
I really need to read You Should See Me in a Crown, I have been meaning to get to it since it was released it sounds amazing!
Thanks for gushing about these choice sapphic reads 💋
Putting The Stars and the Blackness Between Them on my list to read! Love to see books about people of Trini descent :)
Oh lol I totally missed the readathon but I'm definitely adding these books to my tbr
Yayyyyy
Jessie I think you would really like Mr Loverman by Bernardine Evaristo. When you were talking about Patsy it made me think of this book
Adding to carttttt
Excellent! Some of my favorites are on this list and I just added more! 💋
I LOVE Becky Chambers' Wayfarers series and I'm so happy that you included it. Seriously though... the second book is amazing. Maybe better than the first. 😊 Loved the Space Between Worlds too. I've added a few to my TBR! ❤❤
I had the second book on my tbr for this month but it def isn’t happening lmao. I can’t wait to get to it though!
Perfect!!! Am already planning on reading One Last Stop for the Olympic Games Readathon so this fits in nicely!!! Very excited Jesse, thank you
Omg I haven’t heard of that!!!! Who is hosting
I read Patsy because you recommended it in another video and I think about that book all the freaking time. It really is an excellent novel.
Have u read here comes the sun?
💋💋Ooh I just finished you should see me in a crown! I really liked it, it was so cute. I’m here thinking of my physical tbr rn cuz I’m away from home and i remembered not your villain by c b lee the sequel to not your sidekick which has a sapphic main relationship in the first book and that book has an amazing amount of rep (Asian-American, latinx , lesbian, bi, trans, ace,(possibly black I can’t remember exactly what Emma’s race)) and it’s a superhero story kinda reads on the younger end of young adult but would totally recommend
I used to take it to boost my metabolism but I do admit it’s not as good as lattes hehe
This video is a delight. So many books I've loved and so many on my TBR! Looking forward to reading along with the readathon. Maybe I'll finally read The Stars Are Legion by Kameron Hurley.
i drink my coffee black but only when it’s nicely roasted because then you can taste like an undertone of the flavours if that makes sense haha? also, very excited about this readathon 🌱
i read the gilda stories earlier this year and it’s definitely my favourite book of the year so far 💋
Oh I needed this!! Looking forward to your thoughts on the second wayfarers book whenever you get to it!
Oh my goodness. Thank you for these. 😘 I’ll definitely have to watch this again and actually take notes. (As an aside, I love how many of these have purple covers. 💜)
💋 Got so many new recommendations. Thanks, Jesse!
Yesss going to be reading Hani and Ishu or She Drives Me Crazy for this readathon!! Great recs
I’m dying to read both of those 📚 Omgg Im so jealous

Yessss
This was a great list, thank you!
I don't understand that either how people drink their Coffee Black
I've been so slow as a reader lately but it'll be fun to see if I can actually finish a book in that timeframe. 😂 ❤️❤️
drinking coffee black because it helps me wake up and also i dont feel the bitterness, it tastes nice?? idk
💋💋💋
Ooo I dig this
💋💋 I loved Evelyn Hugo and The Color Purple!! I love having a sapphic readathon!! I’ll probs start Harrow the Ninth for this since it’s the only unread sapphic book I have right now (I’m currently banned from buying more books) 😭
Can we please have a list of the titles and authors, I'm struggling to write all these down
I don't work on friday, so this readathon sounds perfect! I JUST bought future of another timeline, and slept on? I feel like I have heard about it everywhere hmm..
💋
Omg really!!? I have literally never heard anyone discuss it so I’m GLAD you have! It’s incredible!
💋 love this idea!...also edited to add TIL The Color Purple was epistolary.
Ahh!!! So excited for this perfect summer 24 hour readathon💋 I read tipping the velvet in 2019 & I mistakenly brought it to work to read & it definitely felt illegal lmaooo

I know that I am coming late to this vid, BUT…..I was raised on Barako coffee from the Philippines, so American brewed coffee is so weak in comparison that it is sort of like cocoa to me….it has it’s own sweetness - subtle, but pleasant.
I'll be trying to read Skim, We Are Okay, and Annie On My mind

Hi! New subscriber here, so hopefully you covered this already. I couldn’t find it on your channel. I’m so curious about how you annotate your books, your process, etc. I think in a previous video you mentioned that sometimes your books become diaries and that resonated so much with me. Of course without sharing actual diary things, I’d love to learn more about how you annotate!
Hi friend!!! Here you go :) so glad u were curious about this!!!th-cam.com/video/6SaSGPABCeY/w-d-xo.html
My brother always jokes about how my coffee is 90% creamer it might as well be considered a latte 💀 He drinks his black & says it's because he likes the bitter, nutty taste (and also it's smoother? Whatever that means) if that helps. I tried drinking it black once because i heard it's better for you but I too just tasted pain. 😣 Anyways, super excited for the sapphic readathon! 🏳️🌈💖💋
honestly I just forget to buy coffee creamer 💋
LOL
love me a mountain of creamer.
"i don't get any of that, i get suffering." hahahahha same.
I’m embarrassed to admit that I started drinking black coffee because of Clary from City of Bones and eventually you get used to the taste but I do also like my coffee bitter
