Bravo

I enjoyed your rant. I feel I know you better now. I've been curious about what guides your reading choices, and I am surprised you're not a college student simply because so much of what you read is on college reading lists. I am also keenly aware that a degree does not necessarily correlate with intelligence. It is obvious you are very, very intelligent with perhaps just a touch of ADHD. You will make your own path. Who was the comedian you mentioned?

You've found a good angle for filming with good lighting also. How many hours do you spend a day reading? I like your approach to analyzing books.

What's the cat's name!

One of my favorite books it’s just so relatable

I am struggling with the read, somehow I prefer reviews and stories about him and his partner

check out "The Donor" by judee sill "seville" by pinback and "vegemans revenge" by chypho(great reading music)

Hello.. I have no odds so..

I absolutely loved this book. I think it is a Buddist concept, not Jewish. I think you simply misspoke because you used Buddist terms in the rest of your explanation. George Saunders is a great author. Are you a grad student? A teacher?

Looks just my bedroom hehehe... Nice reivew!

I really like the last chapter, Rue Barrée, that book is a weird one for sure! I honestly didnt get it

Nicely elaborated!

you played the same recording twice in this?

one of my fav novellas, great video

Jorge Amado é brasileiro.

Hey! This video appeared in my recommended videos list, and I want to say that you seem to be doing a good job with whatever it is that you do hahaha!

How to contact with you directly, mister?

One of the greatest books ever written not only about totalitarianism but about the effect psychologically on the individual. My all time favorite books are Darkness at Noon by Koestler, The Stranger by Camus, The Possessed by Dostoevsky, John Cheever's book of short stories, and The Trial by Kafka. Most of these books and characters deal with the internal more than the external although the external obviously influences the other.

There is nothing stupid about your rants. Everything nowadays is so scripted, edited, controlled not only on the internet but also outside. Sitting in a chair and expressing face camera the flow of your consciousness, it takes some character and some courage.

You look like Joe 😊

Hi, i think im gonn write a really long comment. I just finished reading the book. you are very cute :p but some things you are factuallly wrong about the book, ahha seems like you havent really read the booj yourself. hahah and also i love how ur vid is so original like i can tell you dont have vid editing skills so you know you have only one take :p natsuko doesnt reallt convince her sister to not get breast implants and neither are the journal entries about natsuko and her sister., they are of her neice who is going through puberty. maybe you should not do a review of a book which is hugely centered around the femenine, much less be so daringly confident and do it without having read it yourself, duh! still over all very amusing! :) ps NO ONE OWNED A BAR. they were both very poor and that was one of the main themes of the book.

заебись

I always come back to this video, you should deff do more nabokov reviews

Loved the quote you shared, it gave a great snippet of the book. It'd be nice to hear some of your favorite quotes in future book reviews!

bro i have an exam tomorrow could you be more helpful :/

I've been wanting to read this book since I played the game parsnip, thanks for the reminder

I like the camera being closer to your face like this. It feels more like you're having a conversation with us. Pale Fire is a very difficult but fun book! It is also considered an example of hypertext.

Hi I’m wondering if you have read 1q84 if so would you be open to sharing your thoughts in a short review? I’d really appreciate it! Thanks a lot

love your videos!

Hey you have a nice voice and the way you present the story is entertaining. You should have more confidence in yourself, i hope your channel grows a lot :)

Hi. Just found your channel, so hello from a fellow book tuber in New Zealand. Subbed. Perfume is a powerful story - especially the end when he's in Grasse. great stuff. Best, Mark

honestly yeah it does have a bit of a "im fourteen and this is deep" kinda feel but what i found worse was the wierd pace? i read it a few months ago so correct me if im wrong but i got the feeling that everything kind of unraveled too suddenly in the sexond half/last third. the repetition and the long sex scenes im not too bothered by tbh it reminded a bit of american psycho but they do come off as a little more shallow. unfortunately i quite like the overall weirdness lol and the juxtaposition between them clearly living in the real, modern world but also doing irrealistic or just bizzarre things. side note i think the rock collecting habit is moreso a form of addiction than it is a funny quirky habit. its like he just switched substance intead of actually getting better- like at some point its anactual problem theire house is overflowing with rocks and only later does he find anything to do with them. what i do like is that while the ending is bleak, he's lost everything, his mom died, his scam uncovered and his sex addiction has actually got worse there's a sense of 'yeah all this happened to me and life is shit at least i belong somewhere. finally.'

Interesting take on the novel. I like that you noticed that there is an element to his writing that has a juvenile quality to it.

Yo I'm so happy for you! It's a big improvement

Much better 🤩🤩🤩

I really like being able to see your face clearly. So much better!

Insane book and that orgy had me so shocked. I was thinking abt it for days after. went into this expecting vicious and grotesque murders but actually found an introspective novel about the struggles of understanding one's self (via smell???). Idk I never really thought about my scent being integral to how I view myself. Ending was such an interesting twist on how to manifest love in a self destructive manner. Liked the French historical context

One of my favourite books and favourite movies too.

❤❤❤

Oh my word. I wish you were in my English class when I was still teaching. Just keep on keeping on!!! The world needs more of you❤❤❤

You rock!!!❤

I love Perfume. I can still smell the fish in the market, where he was born. Under the table, if I remember. I'm subscribing just because you liked it too. Looking forward to hear what you have to say about other stuff. ❤

This was one of my favorite books when I was in high school, but haven’t read it since. Thank you for reminding me 😁 P.S. I found the going-of-topic parts so funny (in the best way)

I found the prose of Perfume too lacking to be believable that it was written in its time period, and and a bit boring dialogue wise as most fantasy/historical novels have a habit of being from the authors disconnected distance from it. Even the description of scents, whether beautiful or ugly, weren't executed as dexterously as i really wanted. Maybe its more flowery in German i dunno, but i wish this concept was written by a more artistically talented writer than Suskind. The interest really came from what happened rather than how it was told. I remember what occurred in the book but I don't remember a single sentence, and maybe there is a sort of contemporary talent in that but to me I was left wanting more than maybe Suskind's ability could provide.

❤

You have so much potential here. Can you work with your lighting? Get a ring light? I think you could be very successful with a little more care....

Well done! I enjoyed reading along as you read. I'm curious as to why you didn't read the last couple lines that are in the description? Either way I really liked your poem. Good on you for sharing it :)

beautiful.. thank you..
