100 Books You Should Read Before You Die | Part 1

Hey ya'll! It's time for my annual 100 Books You Should Read Before You Die video. I've decided to do it a little different this year, and I'm going to divide the 100 books into 10 parts so that I can talk about each book for an extended period of time. Today we have part #1!

[@kathleen2002]

i’ve had persepolis for a few years but never read it. your love for it definitely sold it and i’m finally gonna pick it up today! loved the video :)

[@BookishRealm]

@@kathleen2002 yay! I hope you enjoy it!

[@scottieshereereads]

A new Persepolis?! 👀 🙅🏾‍♀️ let me go find that read RIGHT NOW! I haven’t watched the movie either!! Girl I’m gonna have to fit these in this month.

[@BookishRealm]

@@scottieshereereads lol its not a new Persepolis but it is about the present Iranian Revolution. It’s called Woman Life Freedom.

[@jamiepx9]

OMG The Dark Thirty. Brings back memories. I loved that book. Read it during my spooky stories phase as a kid along with those Scary Stories books.

[@BookishRealm]

@@jamiepx9 such a great read!

[@sweeteliz]

Love this new format-- it is so inspiring to hear you talk about these great books! Can't wait for Part 2!

[@greysonkeller5418]

As someone who reads widely like you, I love all the different books you recommend. Can't wait to try some of them that I haven't read yet! Edit: so glad to hear you mention Genesis Begins Again! Just met the author last week at my library and she's amazing! Just read her newest book mid-air and am recommending it to so many people.

[@BookishRealm]

@@greysonkeller5418 yes she’s great! I have Mid-Air on my TBR!

[@1493crowe]

Listening to you talk about Salt to the Sea and how it covers history that isn't covered often... I'm screaming at my screen... READ FOUNTAIN OF SILENCE!!! 😂 I can't wait for you to get to that one

[@BookishRealm]

@@1493crowe haha! I need to get to that soon!

[@marisagettas]

I’ve never ever heard anyone have anything bad to say about Ms. Sepetys. I need to get on those books, asap.

[@BookishRealm]

@@marisagettas ❤️❤️❤️

[@margar3181]

The joy you exude when discussing books keeps me coming back every time! 💗

[@BookishRealm]

@@margar3181 Awww thank you love 💕

[@ohladysamantha]

Salt to the Sea is amazing. I wish I would have read it as a teen because it would have really given me a different perspective on WWII but glad to have read it as an adult. thank you for reminding me I need to read Persepolis. requesting from my library now! I think it may only be part 1 but I'll see when it gets to me.

[@christinaglahn8036]

I would recommend "They Called Us Enemy" by George Takei. Graphic novel/ memoir about the internment of Americans of Japanese descent during the 1940s. Also "Glorious Boy" by Amy Liu. It's a WWII book set in India, which is rarely the focus of any books about WWII.

[@BookishRealm]

@@christinaglahn8036 I’ve read They Called Us Enemy and I agree that is amazing! I haven’t read Glorious Boy. I need to check it out.

[@xDianaMoonx]

This was really great to watch, thank you! I think splitting it up into 10 videos is perfect, because yeah, we get to hear more in depth thoughts on it, than just speedrunning a list of 100 books. Definitely added a few to my TBR. I don't have any recs atm as brain is mush from pre-travel packing and high heat, haha, but def excited to see the next ten books whenever you get a chance to work on it.

[@BookishRealm]

@@xDianaMoonx thanks for watching love! 💕

[@CallMeTippy]

You just made my tbr longer 😅😅

[@BookishRealm]

@@CallMeTippy 😂😂 I’m sorry!

[@tj5087]

Thank you for this list. I’ve read a lot of books that you included; great choices

[@BookishRealm]

@@tj5087 thank you!!! 😊

[@mayamah3274]

I have rea d Persepolis because of you. I purchased it and my daughter read twice once for 8th grade. She loved it.❤❤

[@BookinItWithAhtiya]

I'd never heard of The Dark Thirty before this video! I think this is the universe's sign to read it soon because I saw it in your video and it was on sale on Kindle 🤣

[@BookishRealm]

@@BookinItWithAhtiya yesss it was the ultimate sign lol

[@marisagettas]

Great list as always, Ashley! The one book I would push everyone to read before they die is: “What Strange Paradise” by Omar El Akkad. It’s about the global refugee crisis told through the eyes of a child. If everyone read this book, we have a lot more empathy for those crossing dangerous waters to find freedom. This book won multiple Canadian awards, including The Giller Prize (one of Canada’s most prestigious) and lives rent free in my head ❤

[@BookishRealm]

@@marisagettas ooo I’ll add that to my list!

[@chocolateoreo6489]

Put bitter root on hold from the library immediately

[@BookishRealm]

@@charmedvenuss yes it’s amazing!

[@heyimsasa]

22:06 i feel like one of the biggest reasons why titantic is so much more well known as a maritime tragedy is because a lot of wealthy white people died. it was a new ship that had poor people working overtime to keep it running and a lot of wealthy people boarded it to see and experience something new and shiny.

[@BookishRealm]

@@heyimsasa that’s such a good point!
