CLASSICS READING WRAP UP & SUMMER TBR

[@kimt3864]

I love when people stand in front of a camera talking about books! Glad you're back! Come back more! =)

[@dianewalker9154]

You matter. You talking about books is both interesting and entertaining. I hope you continue your book tube channel.

[@Chesh35]

So good to see you Lucy! Of course your work matters! We need your enthusiasm for reading and exploring to inspire us and your unique book recommendations to enrich our own minds! ❤

[@maayans.181]

Glad you're back!! In my opinion there's a huge value in what you do, I found a lot of books through your recommendations :)

[@Books_on_the_Brain]

I'm reading Jane Eyre for the first time and am loving it! Please keep discussing books on KZbin! It's the only place I have to talk about books with people as well, and I love your videos and insight. I'll always be grateful to you for introducing me to Persephone books!

[@anguipalacioscebrian6336]

Great!! I had already read it some months ago. I loved it. If you want to talk about the book when you finish 📚, you can let me know and we can talk...

[@MG-lq8hx]

Don’t stop! You got me reading classics again. It got me through COVID lockdown.

[@ceebeegeegies]

Glad to see you! This feels like catching up with an old friend.

[@cecilianovak7157]

You are important! Books are important! I talk about books with book club members and my little granddaughters. Please continue📖📚📓📘

[@twentytwenty4272]

Your videos and content became important part of my life, you approach the books and the book world like no other and I appreciate everything you do, please keep it coming. 📚 Respect, love, and peace.

[@Priyanshi-td6sm]

Glad you are back😇😇 your channel is best for everything about classics and other books too. Please keep doing it.

[@mithunsharma7920]

I appreciate you dear lucy, You always talked about excellent books, that's why I consider you as my teacher too🙏❤️

[@maddiej7523]

You matter, I love your videos and I love watching you talk about books!!!

[@eatonpartyofsix3229]

I just finished Wives & Daughters and loved it. I am reading Pride & Prejudice at the moment as well as Hamnet. :-)

[@LostinTimeWithKatie]

I’m so glad you made the decision to keep making videos ☺️ I completely understand how Covid has made people rethink their lives, what they want etc. The books you have read and the ones you want to read all sound fantastic! I have added The Call the call to my to read list and Despised and Rejected is one I’ve been wanting to read for awhile!

[@katiejlumsden]

The Call sounds AMAZING! glad to have you back :)

[@margitsandvik6937]

I love it when you talk about books, your opinion matters and I’m so happy to see you again! ❤️

[@rebeccawilliams4048]

Thank you for posting. I really enjoy your videos so please continue 😊

[@Maria_Efe]

I'm glad you're back! I just finished reading No Surrender the other day, and while I didn't love it, it was certainly interesting to read a novel about the experiences of a real life suffragette!

[@dianacirne]

I missed you! I could 100% watch your videos every week and not get bored! You have such a unique opinion and taste and I already found so many books and authors that I love through your channel, and I hope to find more! :)

[@J_R186]

I recently read Despised and Rejected after seeing it in one of your previous videos. It was amazing! One of my favourite books of this year. The Call sounds great. I've already put it on my TBR. Please keep making your videos. They are very enjoyable to watch.

[@elizabethgode1763]

You are AMAZING!!!! You are a true blessing, thank you for all that you do😘❤🥰

[@MilenaReads]

How exciting to watch a video from you again! The Persephone books sound so interesting. Would love to read ‘Summer’ by Edith Wharton as well 🤗

[@nataliatrevino7289]

Hey, I'm not sure if I've ever commented on your channel, but I just want to say, that you're one of the people who have inspired me into reading classics. I have not read that many, but this year I have read five, currently on my sixth, which is Wuthering Heights! I started last year, with The Picture of Dorian Gray. If I ever lose motivation on reading classics I always come back to your channel, and even if you ever choose to stop producing content, I will still come back for some motivation. Anyways, just wanted to let that out there ❤️❤️

[@graciecrossing3169]

I’m so happy you’re back, Lucy! I always love seeing your videos and hearing your opinions :)

[@jillwhitney-birk5876]

So glad you’re back! I am planning a December trip from the US to the UK! We have concert tickets in Bath. I will have to stop at the Persephone Shop! Maybe I’ll see you there. Thanks for coming back. You were the one who got me into watching book tubers and I have read so many incredible books thanks to YOU!! You are brilliant and can’t wait to hear ANY videos you put out. ❤️

[@dianewalker9154]

This Spring, I wanted to read some gardening books. I read Beatrix Potter’s Gardening Life. So good!

[@izabelbrekilien9658]

Welcome back, I'm happy to see you again :)

[@thienthaobui9372]

You have inspired me a lot ❤ I'm glad you're back

[@oxanasommerville2370]

Oh, Lucy, hopefully some young professor of English literature will appear in your life very soon.If a beautiful young university student in a densely populated city does not have anyone to talk to about her books then there is something awefully wrong with the world. Your videos are amazing and so are you, please do not lose confidence, you are so inspiring!

[@construyendomundosliterari3026]

So glad to see you again in the channel!

[@shonnarobertson6462]

Welcome back! I always enjoy your videos, and enjoy reading many of the books you talk about on your channel. Last year I read Middlemarch for the first time ever, after you said you planned to read it. I have always enjoyed the Brontes, Jane Austen, Edith Wharton etc, though I’ve never been a Thomas Hardy fan... As my winter reading (I’m in Australia) I plan on revisiting Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers.

[@KierTheScrivener]

I am so glad to see you again. So excited to read The Call. I adore WWI, and suffragettes. Also I have been in an Austen binge so you living in Bath is so cool. We all change a lot as a reader throughout the years, classics endure but I wane and wax with how many I read. And with other genres I change so much throughout. The genres I said I would never read/had no interest when I started bt are my most read genres of this year. So no pressure to ever be just one thing.

[@newbooksmell9221]

I'm glad you found a new favourite and came back to share it with us! :) I find your videos so comforting to watch, it's a Beatrix Potter's letters vibe, I guess. Hope you read lots of new incredible books in your research!

[@rowenaroberta5244]

Glad you're back!!I discovered your channel last year during the first two months of the pandemic here in Italy when we were not allowed to leave our homes (except for buying food) and they have been very comforting to me, along with my books!

[@sigridmlj]

I really enjoy all of your videos, so please don't stop making them :) I already own The Call, so I'm definitely going to make it a priority to read it soon!

[@dimaronin2050]

When the theme of suffragettes was mentioned I hoped throughout the entire video you would name at some point "I pose" by Stella Benson. This is a very peculiar book with a beautiful writing style that somehow reminds me of Nabokov, and it also has my all-time favourite scene in a book. Lucy, please give this book a chance, Stella Benson deserves so much more than being an obscure author no one ever heard of! I feel really lonely in my love for her books.

[@laurynfraser7292]

I love reading and I think you're amazing

[@janicemacdougall1844]

So glad you're back. :) You got me interested in starting to read classics, thank you. :) I love the cover of the book Summer. I would love it as a painting on my wall by my bookshelves. I recently finished reading A Room With a View for the first time and loved it. I will definitely be reading more of E.M. Forster. Also, your new book sounds really interesting. I have not read any books set during the suffragette movement.

[@Capricorn152]

Love Persephone Books!

[@patriciabuuck5277]

I have missed you I had to search for you. So happy you are continuing doing videos of your reading. I have read several books you have presented😍😎. I am now a fan of Elizabeth Haskell for one. I am having some trouble with Mrs Halloway by Virginia Wolfe

[@nicolacurtis4927]

Selfishly, I very much want you to keep doing KZbin- I love watching you.

[@GenWivern2]

Hello Lucy - always happy when you appear. :-)

[@inanimatecarbongod]

I've read hardly *anything* this year-three books in total-which has kind of got in the way of me doing the booktube thing I'd envisaged my channel as being. Haven't even got into Katie's 1900-1950 readathon like I'd hoped to. On the plus side, your new book is an excellent excuse for not reading much cos you've been busy writing... you've got something to show for your quarantine, which is more than can be said for me.

[@Sherlika_Gregori]

Congratulations on your newest book release.

[@johnford6967]

Of course it matter's. You are an asset to the pod cast community!

[@user-we6ks6pw5j]

welcome back!!

[@Nina-cx1lk]

Questioning everything I thought I knew to hear you say 'I used to love the Brontës' 😱 Glad you're back!

[@layma5113]

I was refreshing your page in hope of a new video just the other day 😍

[@MothGirl007]

I miss book shops so much and I especially miss my local library.

[@AbiofPellinor]

Classics will change how you view every single book, so of course hopefully you’ll still enjoy classics but that is rarely the only thing someone reads. Hope you don’t feel pressure though

[@mariatavares8513]

Please, stay with us.

[@CathyFrontier]

Love your enthusiasm in this vid! :) Quick question: where are the first three books your mention set? Have a lovely day!

[@lourbooks5497]

Glad you’re here again! I missed your videos I love them and also you help me a lot to improve my english 😊😊 Persephone books such a good books I would like to have something similar here in Spain. I recomend you Harriet by Elisabeth Jenkins maybe you’ve read it but if you don’t, I’m sure you love it! It’s based on real facts 😊😊

[@ReadingNymph]

Your channel got me into classics, but you don't need to constantly read them to be validated as a booktuber. Your opinions matter 💜

[@imaginativebibliophile549]

Lucy, My copy of your third book, Bookishly Ever After will arrive within the next two days. I immensely enjoyed reading The Paper and Hearts Society and Read With Pride and I know that I will completely fall in love with the final book in the trilogy. The middle grade historical fiction novel I am currently writing heavily focuses on the magic of nature and the thoughts and imagination of women during the Edwardian Period and my characters bring me such innate joy whenever I sit down to write. I would love to read your book about the suffragettes one day when it is published. I need to read The Call by Edith Aryton Zangwill because I am fascinated by the history of the suffragettes and the feminist movement where women for fighting for the right to vote. The story of a female scientist, Ursula suddenly deciding to join the suffragettes allures me. As for the classics I have been reading, the author I have been finding most comfort in lately is Lucy Maud Montgomery. I know I am always talking about her books and likely boring you to complete vexation, but I have not read any of her stories for months and I recently read The Golden Road and Rilla of Ingleside, both of which transported me to the whimsical characters and landscapes in Prince Edward Island. I finally read The Tenant of Wild-fell Hall by Anne Bronte, which was the perfect feminist book that certainly uplifted my spirits. I have been loving the idea of reading children’s classics like Tom’s Midnight Garden by Phillipa Pearce and revisiting Beatrix Potter’s stories in The Fairy Caravan. I love you

[@ScullyPop]

You're still being recommended by the algorithm. I found you this way.

[@elizabethgode1763]

😘❤🥰

[@zubaerchaudhari8267]

Hey

[@krishanu-d1k]

Of course your opinion matters.

[@ebrahimalbrmaki9863]

I love your teeth, they are spectacular

[@marquesdesena658]

¡Nice to see you again on the channel!, we already missed you, hopefully this holiday season we can see you more often and continue to enjoy your videos. I am looking to create a KZbin channel made up of other KZbinrs from around the world to promote reading and help future writers with writing tips, I see potential in you because you reflect having a lot of literary knowledge and I want to invite you to join this project, if you are interested, let me know by answering. #Findyourpeople
