so glad I found this video and your channel, will be binging your vids now!! I also love that the books you talked about are not necessarily the hyped up books you'll see in almost every reading wrap up

So glad you enjoyed Less Than Zero! I have it on my summer tbr and am excited to get to it! I read The Shards earlier this year and Glamorama recently and I just love how easy it is to read him while also being highly entertained!

[readingisbelieving]

I read four books this month, two romances, a thriller, and a fantasy romance! I started another thriller last night so potentially five if I finish within the next few days

The Covenant of Water is on my list to pick up soon (I'm trying to make a deal with myself, to read at least 3 books for every new book I get- I'm not doing too well here though). I'm currently reading "And Then She Fell" by Alicia Elliott, about a woman who just had a baby and goes through these mental states of dissociation and strange things happening. The Author is doing a free event next weekend in my small city I'm going to, and very excited about

I also read 5 books.. They are just general light fluffy romance books.. It's not much but I'm satisfied. Love your videos.. Lots of love from 🇮🇳India

Not sure if you've read it but i think you'd love The Book of Goose by Yiyun Li

I read Less than Zero and watched the movie ages ago, but I remember they are quite different. Isn't the ending different?

I started Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherlands in May. Good luck with the general election; my country, India, is having one too.

I wholeheartedly agree with you about Sally Rooney. I also wanted to like her, but find that her characters are fairly one dimensional & difficult to empathize with.

i also do not enjoy sally rooney’s writing! 🥹 sorry but its just not giving….your points are valid!!!
