"did I finish this book, or did this book finish me" is the best 1 sentence review to ever exist for a little life.

Why is Jack literally the only person I trust for book recommendations?

[justwonder]

May I say just how much I envy your passion? I used to be a bookworm as a child and young adult, but kinda lost it in recent years. I still read but it's hard to regain this hunger for books I used to have. It's channels like yours that remind me how exciting reading can be and help me keep trying to re-discover it, so thank you.

Just finished 'Wealth's Loyal Companion: The Uncharted Path to Prosperity', it's a game-changer. It's more than money talk – it's about shaping a rich life in every way. Real stories, practical tips, and eye-opening insights. It really shows how discipline and learning can change your life. Totally recommend it!

Piranesi is just breathtaking. EVERYONE must read it and yes you're supposed to feel a little confused at the beginning so keep reading.

[karaburacar]

Couldn't look away from this video – it's got me hooked! And if you're into captivating stories, ''The Hidden Truths Of Wealth' is a must-read. It's packed with suspense and intrigue, just like this video. Head over to 'Borlest' to grab your copy and dive into the excitement!

[bethanyd.]

This man knows how to sell a book better than anyone I've ever seen. He's so good at explaining books and I get half my boom recs from him!🥰

[joyrowancasey]

Currently reading Piranesi at the moment and I'm even more excited for it now hearing what you had to say about it

[owned]

I started reading Piranesi in the morning, ended up having to talk a half day off work because I couldn't put it down. Every page made me more and more fascinated to uncover what the story was really about. It's such a small book too, anyone should give it a go :)

I just love how your recs are so different than everybody else and how well you express yourself! Thank you for that!

[myfanwygreene]

I would 100% sell my soul to read 'My Brilliant Friend' by Elena Ferrante for the first time (translated from Italian). Never in my life have I experienced such a tender and heartwarming portrayal of two young friends. It is complex, beautifully written and really gives a voice to growing up in a small community. Brilliant.

[zoespencerreid]

Honestly, Jack's reviews are always sooo good, he's the only bookworm with this incredible capability to make any book sounds so appealing, so delicious, like my tbr list is crazy long now because of him.

[stardusthalo]

i'd sell my soul to read "a thousand splendid suns" for the first have read many books but i always find myself thinking bout' this book. It is one of those books that leaves an imprint on you for a very long time.

[safiyaandrews]

Whenever I need a new book rec I always come to your videos Jack. Your analysis but also wit makes your videos so original

[felipecon]

I'm not so much into reading, even though I love your videos, and I still didn't finished it, but Dracula is being one of those books. It's so well written and so terrorizing, and that part about the Demeter log and all the ship chapter is so, so good. I know that when I finish it I will want to forget it just to have the experience again!

[zoebecker]

dude. i've been in such a reading slump (like i havent finished a book in a month or so) so anyways hopefully this helps lol
