I don’t care for digital books. I guess I am old school and more tactile. I love the crispness & heavenly scent of the pages of a brand new book. Love holding the book in my hands, the sound of turning the pages. To me, each book I read is somehow a relationship for a while… and each book has a soul of it’s own. So ya, digital just doesn’t cut it for me.

I am a new subscriber and love your channel! When you said your neighbor must have a budget of 8 million dollars I just died. I am still laughing. I feel the same way about my neighborhood. Someone always doing something in their yard.

Yes! You need Stephen King’s On Writing book! It’s very inspiring and helps me get out of my slumps when I need that bit of a motivational boost!✍️

I tried the King one. It didn't do much for me. Chuck Palahniuk's Consider This I found to be much more helpful, with his practical, concise writing advice. And the crazy stories he tells in that book are wild. Also Elmore Leonard's 10 writing tips are worth looking at as well. Edit: oh sweet, booksaresick has read it. (I initially posted this comment before watching the video).

SK, and more specifically Pet Sematary also got me into reading. Have been at it over a year now and have enjoyed so many. Currently halfway through 11/22/63 and enjoying it. Enjoy the content, upload more often if you can

Please update when finished!!! It's on my tbr but it's pretty chunky and a pretty daunting story, I also haven't read any SK before so I've been putting it off

I feel the same about the IKEA bookshelves. I have two of them in gray and they do not hold up well. But to be fair, I've had them nearly 8 years not and they went through multiple moves. Just don't put too many heavy books on them and it will help keep them from falling apart (from someone who has a lot of big heavy art books) 😆

I recommend “Bird by Bird” by Anne Lamott… it’s a great book on writing!

My daughter spent about 7 years in college (she couldn’t decide on her ‘focus’), then we gave her a camera for Christmas. The rest is history. A non practicing teacher with $50,000 in college debt and we could have just given her an $800 camera. 🤷🏽♀️ She made a business out of it for 10 years (local weddings, destination weddings, senior pics, birth pics, family sessions…). Such a phenomenal eye. It takes talent to be a photographer. I’d love to see a sample of your work.

27:15 - For kids/young adult books, I highly recommend anything by Colin Meloy. He’s the lead singer and songwriter for The Decemberists. His wife and him wrote and illustrated the Wildwood Chronicles which are 3 big fantasy fiction novels that are based near Portland, OR and it’s full of crazy characters like talking animals. It’s totally readable for adults too.

Write that book! While you were talking about it I was halfway listening while putting on my makeup and thought “oh I’m gonna download a sample of that” and then realized you were talking about your book.😂 it sounds so good! Have you done a video on your favorite coming of age? I haven’t read any of those I don’t think but I’m going to! I downloaded a sample of Perks…wallflower

Star ratings are so hard, because sometimes a book is well written but I just did NOT enjoy it for whatever reason and rating it low seems unfair, and there's books I've loved that I'm well aware are trash 😅

people are way too serious about broken spines lol, personally I love when books are a bit beaten up and you can tell they've been read and loved!! if you haven't heard of it before, there is actually a proper way to "break in" the spine of a book (you lay it flat and go from outside in on both sides at the same time - there's lots of tutorials online) I do recommend trying it because in my experience it will help the book stay in better condition long term, especially if it's being read many times!
