“you could call jane austen an unmarried woman because she never mrs.” 😭

[SuryanshiAgrawal]

Only jack would look at a random picture of kate middleton and ignore her to focus on the books instead

[maryseptihet]

the fact that kate bush wrote wuthering heights because her and emily brontë have the same birthday is even more ICONIC ! I’m like okay reincarnation !!!

[anagham]

Jack we need a video of you explaining the literary references on TTPD

[amesiesasmr]

Really saved yourself from a mob of angry Irish people by putting in that correction for Oscar Wilde😅

[ilariarossi]

Lunch with Jack is like my second favorite meal, after breakfast with a great book. I swear it changes my day

[jessicaarend]

The 2020 Emma movie with Anya Taylor-Joy is my all-time favorite movie!

[Pazoo_underscore]

THE OWL WHO WAS AFRAID OF THE DARK WAS MY CHILDHOOD!!! there was a whole series and i still have them on my shelf. AND katie morag too!

[niamhl]

Thank you for correcting yourself in editing when you called Oscar Wilde British, I was about to come out swinging!

[jadadivinatanaka]

Omgggg, I geeked out when you said you loved Northanger Abbey cause I ardently admire it. Such an underrated book.

[LunabirdBookclub]

Kind of would love a video of Jack reading all the children's books and giving them the full literary analysis treatment

[michaelaporro]

J am assuming this is already on the works, but j just need the confirmation that at some point in the future we will have a video called "every literary reference in the tortured poets department" and it better include all 31 tracks because i need that peter and cassandra analysis from you, jack. Thank you ily always ur the best 💕

[madalenapires]

Dickens also wrote for the masses, not the intectuals, so his writing depicts that. It's simple and easy to digest because that's not really the important part - the story is. I always respect an author that writes for the people, that trusts that the story is good enough and doesn't need complex writing to give it credit. So yeah, I really like Charles Dickens.

[joelleblanc]

I think it IS a bit disappointing how curated & planned this list is. If Kate is obsessed with faerie smut, , we'll never know 😢

[PokhrajRoy.]

I just wish Lady Diana had lived because she’d have the best Letterboxd, Fable TV Club and a Book Club.

[mimstarkgaryen]

am I the only one who’s completely in love with “persuasion” ❤❤❤ definitely my favorite jane austen ❤

[miral]

I read somewhere that she really loves “Anne of Green Gables” as well.

[strongdeea]

I think this is my favourite video ever from Jack

[grace-the-poet]

I’m so jealous of Princess Catherine’s book collection so pretty and aesthetically pleasing 💕

[leep.]

silas marner DOES slap, thank you. it was the literary criticism comp. choice for texas this year and everyone hated it but i thought it was a straight banger.
