You provide the best plot descriptions of books out of all the booktubers I've watched. Most booktubers are so vague and will just gush about how much they love/hate a book, but you actually go into a good amount of depth, enough to make me want to pick up a book. Thank you!

"A Man Without A Country", "Palm Sunday", "Fates Worse Than Death", etc.) 2 - "The Cider House Rules" by John Irving 3 - "The Brothers K" by David James Duncan 4 - "Catch-22" by Joseph Heller 5 - a) The Sarantine Mosaic, and b) The Fionavar Tapestry by Guy Gavriel Kay 6 - "Les Miserables" by Victor Hugo 7 - "Days Without End" by Sebastian Barry 8 - "A Tale of Two Cities" by Charles Dickens 9 - "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy 10 - "Down to This: Squalor and Splendour in a Big-City Shantytown" by Shaughnessy Bishop-Stall

All of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s books Hatchet and The Voyage of the Frog by Gary Paulsen A Little Princess, The Secret Garden, and Little Lord Fauntleroy by Frances Hodgson Burnett The Floating Islands by ??? Dinotopia (which is kinda like a picture book, and it’s art is AMAZING) by James Gurney And a lot more haha

I loved "Coraline". I also loved the animated stop motion version. It is actually the reason why I decided to read the book. If you haven't seen the movie, I totally recommend it. Stop motion is a style of animation that goes really well with dark fantasy and other genres such as gothic or horror fiction. You should really watch the movie. The characters design and world-building is on point. You're gonna love it.

I'm trying to watch them all and binge on them! haha One of the books you showed us and I really want to read is Norwegian wood. I'm going to buy it soon. I also love Anne of Green Gables SO MUCH! I have watched the Netflix series but unfortunately Netflix production decided to discontinue it and this make me want to read the book more! One of my favorite books that I really recommend it is "My dark Vanessa". It's a really tough book as it talks about pedophilia and sex-abusement but it's so well-writtten that I think that you'll like it. I also recommend you to read "Little Women", a romantic and sweet classical book that I think that you'll love it. Keep going girl! You' re awesome! 💕

Fun fact: I can trace my entire experience in grad school back to the Cambridge Companion to Fantasy Literature. In 2012 I didn’t know there was any significant scholarship on fantasy as a genre, but a friend gave me the book for my birthday. At the same time I had moved to southeastern Idaho to start a teaching job. Flipping through the CCtFL, I found out that Brian Attebery teaches at Idaho State University, just an hour away from where I had just moved to. We started corresponding and it eventually led me to ISU for grad school (I’m currently working on my dissertation), I’ve published a few articles on fantasy abs sci-fi, I’ve become a regular attendee of the International Conference on the Fantastic in the Arts, and I even got to serve as the Editorial Assistant for the Journal of the Fantastic in the Arts for a few years. And it all started with that copy of the Cambridge Companion, which I still regularly mine for ideas and resources for my scholarship. Very cool to see someone on BookTube has read it!

I always love hearing you talk about books. It just makes me want to read even more than I already do (and that is quite a lot) :) I just wanted to let you know that most Mormons (or members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints which is the name that we prefer) are not extreme like Tara Westover's family was. I am a member of that church and we actually highly favor education and believe that everyone should educate themselves as much as possible. Westover's father took a lot of things too far and sadly that meant she was not educated. Obviously many people have many different experiences with religion, but from my perspective, our church is an organization that is just trying to bring Light into the world through different methods like coming unto Christ and finding good things out of the best books.

A lot of your favourites are mine too! :) The Graveyard Book, Ocean at the end of the Lane, Never Let me Go. Although I hated Norwegian Woof to be honest ^^; the sex stuff was too straight-man wish fulfilment and weird for me.

Glad you liked Orlando but you didn’t mention it was based on Vita Sackville West a friend of Virginia with whom they had a relationship. Vita Sackville West was herself an excellent writer who wrote novels, poetry, history of her family and inheritance as well as gardening at Sissinghurst. A fascinating character I’m sure you would enjoy her writings if you haven’t already found her. She too experienced the limitations of being female in that she was not allowed to inherit her homestead Knole because she was a woman. Would recommend her novel “ALL PASSION SPENT” in particular.

Well, the "monster" is technically the son Frankenstein, since he comes to life through Victor. I think it's totally appropriate to refer to him as Frankenstein.

Hello Christie-Anne! I love the calm way you are presenting the books. I have also enjoyed your photos on Instagram. I happen to be an Author. I have recently published 'Rosie Protects the Coded Disc of Phaistos', on Amazon. In case you would be interested in reading it and offer an honest review, I would so appreciate it. It's fantasy-adventure- Science Fiction for both children and adults. Thanks.

A book about Sapians isn't Non Fiction. Its debatable Science fiction because much of anthropology is sourced as theoretical archeology science.

It’s actually interesting read if you google this topic 😉 The way KZbin counts and refreshes these are not simply real time especially on a new video! Hope this helps. Also some viewers can like video straight away so it doesn’t count their views yet. 😊

Good books never become outdated. If they become outdated it’s because they weren’t good books.
