A not well known Studio Ghibli that I think is one of the best is 'Whisper of the Heart'. I'm just going to leave the synopsis here because I think you will be interested in the theme of the movie : "Shizuku lives a simple life, dominated by her love for stories and writing. One day she notices that all the library books she has have been previously checked out by the same person: ‘Seiji Amasawa’. Curious as to who he is, Shizuku meets a boy her age whom she finds infuriating, but discovers to her shock that he is her ‘Prince of Books’. As she grows closer to him, she realises that he merely read all those books to bring himself closer to her. The boy Seiji aspires to be a violin maker in Italy, and it is his dreams that make Shizuku realise that she has no clear path for her life. Knowing that her strength lies in writing, she tests her talents by writing a story about Baron, a cat statuette belonging to Seiji’s grandfather" xau

But I recently picked up "Waslala", by Gioconda Belli, and her writing has this magical thing to it I think you might like! She's always deep, but in this way that makes you feel very connected to her words and her characters and the worlds she builds. I read "Sofía de los presagios" last year and it was AWESOME! Lastly, I enjoy your videos so muuuuch. They are relaxing and help me focus - studying from home has been hard but you inspire me and I look forward to reading your recommendations!

Congratulations on watching your first movie again! 💛 If you're in the mood for more Ghibli, I can recommend Arrietty. Seeing War and Peace reminded me of how far behind I am. I've barely had time to read this month and now I'm only on page 270 of about 1200. Aahhh. And I would love to sit down with it for a while to properly get into it, I just got to the beginning of the battle of Austerlitz and I can't just read it. It's cruel. I really feel what you said about the pandemic sort of catching up with you when you're slowly getting better with a chronic or long-going illness. I live in Germany, we've descended into bureaucratic chaos here and it's the first time I'm really struggling with the situation. :/

Hey, take it from a guy who practically has ZERO friends, it gets lonely occasionally but you can always rely on wholesome shows like Bob's Burgers, Community (I recommend btw), and books to keep you company (books are the greatest friends). But I am happy about your recovery and hope you can go back to regularly watching movies soon. After you recover and finish reading War and Peace, I really recommend watching Sergei Bondarchuk's film War and Peace. It's seven hours long (the total hours of the three films) but it is REALLY good I cried in the end.

You should read The Razor’s Edge by Somerset Maugham! It’s about a character’s search for meaning through reading and traveling and “loafing” in Paris and India and other places. The movie with Bill Murray is also just awesome. It’s philosophical and beautiful and thought-provoking, however a little heavy. If you ever do read it, I’d love to know what you think! Hopefully it’d be more of a 4 or 5 star read. Also would recommend The Queen’s Gambit as a quick and delightful read! It’s so triumphant and satisfying at the end and lighter to balance out War and Peace!
