Haley, I think you’re discovering that literary fiction can often be more rewarding than other so called “easier” reads. I am so excited to hear your opinions of more books that are known for their beautiful writing.

[@faithmarshall309]

Yeah, it's thought-out and deep! Rom coms (and romances in general) can be fun, but also predictable with cliche circumstances and flat characters, or just plain inappropriate. Literary and religious fiction have messages that make you think, even if you don't have the same beliefs. 💜

I never really noticed her referencing books in her music, that is so cool!

[@lordgregers9124]

in «Dont Blame Me» she also says «I once was poison ivy, but now I'm your daisy», i was actually considering writing about taylors references to the great gatsby for my BA thesis

Classic books that you might enjoy: Little Women, Anne of Green Gables and any Jany Austen book.

[@kel1477]

Anne of Green Gables is one of my favorite books

[@Fromtherivertotheseatheybefree]

Little women is one of my all time favorites 🥹😭

[@user-dd5od3sz3t]

To Kill a Mocking Bird is an amazing classic! And the movie is so good too! I couldn't recommend more!

[@_.Ever.Lark._]

I love To Kill a Mockingbird!!

[@lameeya21]

My fav book of all time ❤

[@crisapril7900]

I'm about to finish 1984 by George Orwell and it's simple to read and understand. But mind-blowing, Orwell wrote his books with the idea of everyone being able to understand no matter what class people belonged in, in that time.

[@LorelaiMadeleine]

I just had a presentation about “1984” and I reallyyy liked it, such a cool book

[@Missmagazinebura]

Read it in high school

[@bookishhobbit9248]

Animal Farm by Orwell is also a really good accessible read

[@Missmagazinebura]

@@bookishhobbit9248 I read that in high school

[@AnnaElizabethBold]

Classics are so jam packed full of deep thoughts, and underlying plots. They are amazing, and it makes me really happy to see you reading them ♥️ Thank you Taylor Swift!

[@Nothereforit174]

Books from any time period have “deep thoughts” and subplot is normal. The beauty of the human mind 😊

[@Connor-j6n]

Frankenstein is such a beautiful classic. I would totally recommend it to you.

[@elishahdavis]

literally my favorite!! mary shelley is my icon

[@katykendrick8151]

I love the frankenstein imagery in her Fortnight music video

[@mbranche4234]

A Tale of Two Cities will always be my favorite classic. I have never looked at knitted pieces and quilted pieces in the same way after finishing this book.

[@ChloeWestern]

Jane Eyre is an absolute masterpiece. Could be one of my favourite books of all time. I'm trying to read more classics this year too. I'm going to have to put The Great Gatsby on my list aswell!!

[@sarahallen2887]

Jane Eyre is on my tbr this year! I enjoy a classic now and then and I've heard that book is really good

[@nataliemae08]

i'm reading jane eyre this month!!

[@Showtunediva]

I DNFed Jane Eyre.

[@hannahkraemer]

I think has also referenced jane eyre in folklore😊

[@avetse]

@@Showtunedivasame!

[@julietareads]

highly recommend Persuasion by Jane Austen, probably the book with THE most beautiful declaration of love and one of my all time faves

[@sarahallen2887]

I read that one last year! "You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope." Love it so much 🥺

[@Emmy-rw8yl]

My fav Jane Austen book, pride and prejudice is a close second ❤

[@WordsCanBeLikeXRays]

Yes! Swoon.

[@mavispollard5579]

anne of green gables and little women are two just incredible classics that have some of the best lines in them, definitely the kind of book you will want to underline and write in the margins for! loving your videos haley keep smashing it

[@Queencereal]

It’s been so fun watching your reading taste change and evolve from the very beginning!

[@lezcuellar]

part 2 pls? just finished jane eyre bc of ttpd announcement!! jane eyre is so interwoven into her lyrics (specifically in folklore), and reading it you can see how her lyrics and povs relate to certain characters vs others. but i would also just love to hear your take on the novel bc of the themes in the book. 🫶🏼

[@georegmax]

Amazing Haley 🥹❤️

[@dinodoeseditz]

wow

[@martagb2655]

Taylor Swift and Haley the best combination! I love your videos ❤

[@jennaclairehaines293]

It would be so cool if you did a video about all of your favorite clean reads because it is so hard to find some these days! And thx so much for posting consistently I love your videos so much!❤

[@mich_mengo]

this video is literally a combination of all my fav things 💛

[@angelinalasalvia358]

I love Rebecca so much, i'm so happy you read it and enjoyed it. Here are other classics I recomend: Jane Eyre, The phantom of the opera and the secret garden.

[@bookswithsophia1]

I just read the Great Gatsby in school so watching you read and enjoy was fun plus some taylor songs I'm going to listen to now

[@cecivascon]

“i love reading and i….” and i love haley pham’s videosssss 💗💗💗

[@jackielowrey3032]

Imagine if Taylor wrote a fictional series

[@Long_live_swiftie13]

I probably read the whole series in a day 😅 lol

[@alsoalis]

needdddd

[@margot_polo]

Far from the Madding Crowd by Thomas Hardy. It has my all time favorite book boyfriend in it. It’s gorgeous, exciting, full of brilliant insight into human behavior. I couldn’t put it down. Glad you’re getting into classics, Haley! I tend to read more classics than any other genre now bc they just deliver so much more. Happy reading!

[@willywonka6384]

I know you're talking about Gabriel Oak 😍

[@lilmissbritto]

IF YOU LISTEN TO TAYLOR SWIFT WHEN YOU READ LIKE THIS COMMENT

[@dinodoeseditz]

It’s crazy how a taylor has time to read books, with the eras tour, music videos, ttpd, it’s mind bending if you think about it! edit: shut up darn replies, you try being a celebrity edit 2: this was almost 2 months ago SHUT UP

[@Fran-kc2gu]

Probably while flying on a plane

[@autumnbluemoon99]

She probably listens to audiobooks a lot to help while she's busy

[@crisilie1973]

anyone going to school and/or with a job is probably more busy than taylor swift or any celebrity really so I'm sure she manages

[@dinodoeseditz]

@@crisilie1973 well you try living a day as a celebrity and try and find time to read. Even when you think she’s stopped she’s probably still thinking about things.

[@henloworld514]

tbf she has tons of staff managing her schedule for her

[@taylor7239]

Stoppppp I love this video idea!! So excited to watch!!🫶🏻

[@claireschweitzer2632]

A Little Princess is my favorite classic!

[@Toeslurper584]

sounds very whimsical what's it abt?

[@dawnw9337]

Haley! Geriatric millennial here, I'm so excited that you read Rebecca! Daphne DuMaurier is my favorite classic writer and I know that by you reviewing her work it will lead to more people seeking her work out. Keep doing what you're doing!

[@alfredomaurera4176]

Taylor books and a Hailey's blog, my favourite things 🙌❤️😌

[@love_nela]

ok but the bangs look amazing on you omg!!!!

[@randomgoalielife]

your editing is getting so much more cinematic lately and I love it

[@aloekrings-moniz4870]

This video was so amazing!! I love that you are discovering "classics", because they are really top-tier literature and for me personally so much more rewarding to read that the usual "viral" books.

[@hellomynameisr8062]

YES

[@hellomynameisr8062]

I completely agree the "viral" "booktok" "bestselling" books aren't doing it for me. I fell in love with classics, but read trope books or ya books that weren't doing it for me. So I am now reading more plot based and classic books. Rather than for the trope or smut. It's a personal preference.

[@RachelCatherine]

Wowwww that quote you read from Rebecca is so beautiful 🥺

[@lifeinmybook]

The perfect intersection of my two interests 🤪 It's so fascinating to see the literary references and inspirations in Taylor's music!

[@Judeeee08]

Haleyyyy!!!! I would love to see a video of you re reading the cruel prince trilogy !!! Pleaseeee!!! ❤️😭

[@Chloeeeeev]

I LOVED Rebecca so much. I love how the weather is almost a character itself. We read it at my book club and I gave it 5⭐️!!

[@Ellereadsalot]

My favorite classics are Little women, the secret garden, a little princess and Pride and prejudice. Especially the first three have very cozy, wholesome vibes. Im currently in the middle of 1984 and I think you might enjoy that. A lot of thought is put into that one as well and it is relatively easy to read.

[@PowerOfBooks1902]

HALEY PHAM + Taylor swift is perfection!

[@evea9876]

Taylor themed video + Haley Pham = best video ever made

[@lnk-m00n]

Thanks Taylor and thanks Haley for keeping me entertained! Btw can you please read Dune? Its my favorite book and I would love to get your opinion on it

[@alessia_books5]

when you were reading out the quotes, all i could think is how nice your voice would be on an audiobook! I would definitky listen to it!! ❤ love your videos

[@DiddysPower41]

Lord of the Flies was the only book I really liked back in high school. I did not enjoy Great Gatsby at all but I still remember a lot of the details in it. Where The Heart Is was also good.

[@jadabower674]

I have been reading Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy and it is such an excellent book, I definitely recommend it!! Also, my favorite Taylor Swift song right now is probably champagne problems :))

[@kalliebella]

Taylor swift and Haley Pham are my favorite people ever!! This duo is chef's kiss!! You got me into reading, and I am obsessed!

[@ShortRacoon]

She is the most comfort youtuber ❤️❤️❤️

[@-CatFam-]

As someone who has evermore as their favorite album/era and who reads, Rebecca will definitely be a book I will read. The lyrics and meaning behind every song is so powerful and beautiful. Evermore is her saddest and most beautiful era. It’s so underrated. Tolerate it, it’s time to go, and Happiness are definitely the 3 saddest of the album in my opinion but the lyrics are so well put together! Love you Haley! 😘

[@iveynetsch1001]

I love classics! I’m so glad you did this video! I am currently doing a research paper on The Great Gatsby at school. I absolutely loved that book.

[@zandiashley2107]

I love your vids Haley, but what made me click was the bangs and I felt bamboozled in the end when you clipped them in 😂 they look great! And I haven’t read these classics either, I half assed them in school but now I genuinely want to read them! On my read list now!!!

[@Iamcloveryes]

I audibly gasped when I saw you posted a new video!!!!! Love ur vids always, Haleyyyyyy!!! GBU ♡♡♡

[@hellomynameisr8062]

I feel like you should read "The Kite Runner" and "A thousand splendid suns" it's a modern classic and it's so beautiful. 😍

[@Cream-Bell-l7z]

Oooo i would definitely recommend Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen! I read it not too long ago and literally within the first couple chapters i knew it was going to become my favorite.

[@fallenxwidow4913]

you should do a reading classics for a week video!!

[@Corqette]

[@malakeltiti8138]

We just finished reading the great gatsby at school and it was such an amazing book with amazing vibes and I’m glad you enjoyed it. Some classics I think you’ll love are The Lord Of the Flies, To kill a mockingbird (I do want to give a trigger warning on this one due to the language0, and the scarlet letter. I’m so glad we were able to read these classics in school and me and my other classmates fell in love with these books.

[@elisepedneault1548]

I was literally thinking that Haley should post a video today and then I get this notification ❤❤❤

[@DanielaGonzalez-lv8hg]

you should read frankenstein, 1984, the picture of dorian gray, lolita and the catcher in the rye

[@LaurenHart-sw7zr]

She read the picture of Dorian gray.🎉

[@tylerorta792]

Love seeing Red Rising love. I am on Lightbringer right now its SOO GOOD

[@lexlynn2650]

Haley the hair!!! ❤❤

[@RoseHavenCastle]

I wish I could go back and read Rebecca again for the first time. It’s one of my absolute favorites. My Cousin Rachel from the same author Daphne du Maurier was just as good (maybe even better). I would highly recommend reading My Cousin Rachel. The 1952 movie with Olivia de Havilland was 😘.

[@e.c.ritter]

I absolutely love reading classics. For my college liberal arts core, my classmates and I have been working through the classics starting with Homer, and we're about to reach Paradise Lost. My two suggestions for novels would be either Jane Eyre or Don Quixote (if you want to consider how we can read without going crazy), but if you want short stories both Flannery O'Connor and Anton Chekhov are amazing.

[@brooke575]

Rebecca was mentioned in the last great American dynasty. It talks about some references in the book and the dog is also talked about. it’s crazy how her mind works

[@londonorozco7960]

you should definitely read the anne of green gables series

[@CarliRas]

I’ve never been so early!! I always look forward to the notification that Haley posted

[@hailey_grace_]

You should read the classic original Frankenstein book , pretty sure it’s too advanced for my age but I’d love to hear about it from a modern book lover perspective

[@Imnotnormal_poison]

Love watching your videos ❤❤, i got the inspiration to read again because of you….. Keep making these types of videos. They are just so good.
