how well do I know classic lit? | TRIVIA & CHILL EP. 1

[@caterina820]

honestly, take this video as a sign you should read little women, it's such an amazing novel, you won't regret it

[@naahhhhHHHHHHHHHH]

it's so smarmy and moralizing!

[@roxy4046]

I started reading it in APRIL and I cant get through it

[@eranada]

Little Women is *chef's kiss*! It got me into classics. I highly recommend the film adaptation afterwards, there's already been a bunch but the latest one by Gerwig has great warm depiction and overall treatment. Both made me cry :')

[@amysoukup6970]

Watching you react to the Little Women quotes made me laugh so hard. It has been over a decade since I read the book but I do remember Louisa May Alcott coming in hard with her words.

[@emmiereads]

I’ve never read any passages from it but sheesh I have to now!!

[@jamesisaacson6379]

@emmiereads when are you going to do video review of next book of vampire chronicles of Ann Rice vampire lestat if you have not already if you have witch video is it?

[@raza_malghani]

3 Emmie videos in a week? What else could someone ask for? 😂

[@JBJari]

She has been blessing us!!! 🎉

[@theaizere]

ending world hunger

[@shrouuuq]

Exactly 😂💜

[@lunaginebra]

This is actually heaven hahah

[@diananwilati6948]

Thank you Emmie! I agree her videos are an anti depressant 😺

[@c_r_i_ss_y]

I’ve been having the worst time recently with my panic disorder and your constant updates have taken my mind off it all, even for 20/30 mins (+ the wonderful new books I get to add to my wish list). Thank you, Emma 🩷

[@emmiereads]

Sending you so much love, I know how important distractions are so I’m so glad - take care💙

[@Inez6542]

Emmie, this is an amazing series. Literally can't wait for more

[@aryaim8171]

This is BRILLIANT✨ Dementors rattle and we need to read Little Women😂😂😂 Also, Thankyou so much for 3 videos this week, we appreciate it here❤

[@emmiereads]

Yes I need to get a copy!! You’re so so welcome💙

[@kathy2539]

Honestly I'd love to do this again with you Em, such fun. Oh and Little Women is wonderful, when you read it you'll need to follow it up with Good Wives. Sometimes they come together.

[@Cubehead27]

Emma is spoiling us this week 😊 absolutely loving it Also, since you're wondering if anyone is still on sporcle: I am still on sporcle, I am addicted to geography quizzes 🌏

[@emmiereads]

Haha amazing, maybe I’ll include some of those next time!!

[@sugarapsa]

sporcle is my first stop after a long day at work! i love geography, periodic table, and baby name quizzes lol

[@pencilonpaper1026]

I love geography quizzes 😂 also addicted

[@moniquebaham]

YES to Trivia Night! YES to Twitch! This was a fun video to watch. Thanks Emma❣️

[@jenniferlehfeldt4054]

Absolutely loved that video. I do love your videos in general actually, but something about this was fun, relaxing, took me back to childhood sneaking the math games on my computer during school lecture, perfect vibes. And now, I want to read Little Women. I have always loved the movie (1994) and thought I didn’t need to read the book, but those quotes just made my heart melt and now I want to join you in this journey!!!!

[@soph7173]

I love this!! please keep doing these, trivia is the best and youre my favorite classic lit booktuber for sure

[@anisa2273]

yes this is indeed your sign to read Little Women, it's brilliant I love it

[@freesiamarieswan444]

this video has the most comforting and cozy vibes, enjoyed playing along with you 😊

[@boohoobea]

i immediately picked up Little Women after this lol those quotes are amazing

[@dreamingfolkore]

those Little Women quotes???? Oh my god?????? I was shocked I am literally buying this book first thing tomorrow I am not even kidding

[@marlachildsartwork]

This was fun to watch and the fact that it was neither live nor a conversation did nothing to stop me from shouting answers at my phone screen. 🤦‍♀️😂

[@coolkarpfen]

This was such a nice, chill video to watch after a stressful work day. Love the idea of doing trivia streams! You could also do literature based personality tests if you feel like it, whenever I'm procrastinating hard I spend hours doing mediocre tests to find out what Austen heroine I am and stuff like that.

[@Comicbrooke]

I loved this so much! I was playing along with you and had such a fun time. The Little Women reactions at the end were so good 🤣

[@camscornerbooks]

Ok that Taylor v Little Women quiz is the only thing that has ever made me want to read Little Women… wow I never thought that would happen.

[@Tania.atlasinajar]

Game show time with Emma 😂❤🕹🎲🎰♦️

[@romywolfofficial]

My fave thing about Edgar Allan Poe's Murder Mystery and Potluck is the running gag where they forget Emily Dickinson is there because she was such a recluse 😅 My English and German lit degree is almost 15 years old and I still was able to answer a lot of these questions, I am so impressed with myself 😱

[@romywolfofficial]

BTW i Luisa May Allcott was a pretty fierce woman in her own right, being an abolutionist and feminist, and Little Women and the sequels aside she also wrote some lesser known Gorhic-ish novels that talked about women amd society (basically, the kind of books that Jo March writes to make a living in Little Women). And it's fitting, given how Gothic novels have from the beginning been a feminist genre.

[@fiddleleaffiction]

I loved this so much 💕 you crushed it on the ringwraiths/dementors quiz!

[@SarahAtHeart]

This was so fun! And yes, Little Women is worth a read ❤

[@irisiulia]

this was so fun to guess along with u lmao !! also i was thiking of buying little women earlier this week, this is defo a sign for both of us to read it

[@youwillneverknow7165]

YES I haven't even started the video but I am so excited for this Edit: Um yes please to the trivia nights and yes please to more trivia videos, this was so fun

[@brodiiie]

Love you videos, they’re really comforting and relaxing and inspire me to read more, especially when I’m in reading slumps. Also I would wholeheartedly recommend Faulkner. I’ve only read The Sound and the Fury and As I Lay Dying, but they are both some of my favourite books of all time. Will defo be reading Light in August this year.

[@d3ppy_1n_w0nderl4nd]

3 videos this week?? best week ever omfg??? it's been pretty tough for me lately so this 100% warms my heart !! love u emma🫶🏻 (p.s we need more videos like this AND PLEASE READ LITTLE WOMEN, YES IT IS YOUR SIGN !!)

[@natalieherd8816]

I loved this video! So much fun playing along with you! I read little woman in my last year of studying and grew instantly attached! I watched the movies afterwards and re read the book, wrote a paper on it. I was obsessed! Defo time to read little women! 😍 oh my gosh, yes! Please let us join you for trivia night! 🥳🤩

[@mollybrewer8098]

My love for literary trivia is validated 🙌

[@graceblondell7320]

this was fun, im so excited for you to read little women

[@l1k1v1]

OHMYLORD EMMIE LITERALLY REALLY DID BLESSED US🛐😭💞

[@elsak9981]

omg yes read little women and watch the movie after it’s so good

[@francescagiuliano123]

no because Little Women is literally the backbone of my personality, i read it when i was very young and kept re-reading it (and its sequels) until I nearly knew it by heart, it forged me as a person and as a reader. You GOT to read and would love it, I feel like every young woman should

[@lija_cya]

Loved your reaction to Little Women. I LOVE Little Women (and Good Wifes, they kinda go hand-in-hand imo, so if you are getting the one, I recommen getting the other). This was a good fun vid :D

[@Pursuitsofmybookishheart]

The Haiku quiz is soooo much fun! I had fun yelling answers in this video. Thank you

[@justcoffeey]

I’m so so so happy to see you posted a new video again in the morning when I woke up ❤

[@camillafladberg673]

Little woman is one of my favorite books 💕. Highly recommend!

[@itsa_peanut]

You truly should read the blue castle! It’s one of LM Montgomery’s only adult books, and the nature descriptions are so breathtaking!

[@princessjessie2946]

the caption is really speaking to me.. about to start reading little women this month! thanks emma

[@natashawillis9778]

Such a creative idea for a series, I was hooked from the intro!! So looking forward to more of this content

[@anitas5817]

Yay Emma! Wasn’t expecting a video this morning. Love it!!

[@lunaginebra]

This was so much fun!!! And chill ❤ you should definitely start twitch haha I love this variety ✨ I’m always so impressed by your eloquence and how much you know about books but this was amazing! I hope I can get to that level in my own lit field ❤ love u, Emma!!

[@forg_tful.]

oh my god. i love trivia (i play sporcle a lot) and i love your channel, this is heaven.

[@bugwormed]

this was so much fun! as soon as i saw the ‘false identities’ i was like: earnest!!! lol. one of my favourite plays, definitely recommend :)

[@h3xt0r46]

WOOOO ANOTHER EMMAA VIDEO (also a twitch would be so fun :00)

[@yw1971]

Tolkien's style is unmistakable. No one comes close & probably never will

[@caseymcconville1328]

Loved the trivia video! Would totally watch more!!

[@emilymay5869]

I'm sick with like some weird flu and haven't been able to concentrate on anything all day, until this video!

[@sophieismyname]

yes thank you now i wanna read little woman too

[@asliozy7]

Please make more of these videos, as a quiz & trivia fan I really enjoyed this video 😊

[@cattothefuture]

I read William Faulkner as a required reading last year for my 1st year of my MA English Literature syllabus. I also was in no mood for Light in August, but the way he uses stream of consciousness in a polyphonic form made me reluctantly recognise his special way painting worlds. Since then, I've read The Bear and A Rose for Emily-two short stories of his that I consider top quality. I guess I'm pulled in to his writing by the way he sees community relations and I'm sure I'll find more valuable insights in the rest of his works.

[@kriskringlereads]

Fun, fun, fun! More, please! 😊

[@mothumn]

omg a trivia stream would be so fun

[@missniftyc1315]

little Women is full of a thousand gems and it's one of my childhood favs! It can be long though.

[@katherineperez7681]

Yes I remember this website!! Thanks for the nostalgia. Also, I shouted William Faulkner in the beginning!! This would be fun to do on a KZbin live.

[@isabelmariamoorealonso666]

Yay so happy for this much content 💕 anything spontaneous is fun with you

[@blackkat_06]

Love love love.. loved ❤

[@love13f]

this video is so relaxing

[@Ms.shoukeen]

I too couldn’t believe my notifications 😢great week❤thanks emmaaaahhhhh and all the best for your finals🎉

[@J_R186]

I highly recommend A Raisin in the Sun! It's very good!

[@robindavda8967]

omg this is so useful I'm going to a book quiz tomorrow so this counts as revision

[@TheQuranIsTheWay]

Love your videos and your humor. I'm just starting my BA in English to teach one dsy, and I'm a 40 year old dude raising 2 kids lol. Never too late. Definitely love the videos, and the suggestions on goodreads. Thank you for the laughs and inspiration.

[@joychalaby]

Loved this video so freaking much, I was screaming out my answers mentally in my head just seconds before you gave them :D Also, LITTLE WOMEN.

[@joychalaby]

ALSO CAN WE PLEASE HAVE A TRIVIA LIVE STREAM? :D

[@Blondie101010100]

Yay! 3 Emma videos in 1 week ❤ I've done a few of these quizzes in the last few months, good fun.

[@MsGloomyLamp]

Yeeees, hoping for more chill adventures with you!

[@snailflowers]

i think you would love little women!! it’s an all time favorite of mine, i put off reading it for the longest because it was a favorite of my grandmother’s and i thought it would be too dense and old fashioned or something for me to get into… i slept on it for too long though. never thought i’d meet a protagonist i relate to as much as jo march

[@snailflowers]

and i’d have to recommend greta gerwig’s film adaptation of it as well. such a gorgeous and emotional story

[@aneeshajha]

Rewatching your videos is my favourite thing to do and why did I not comment this before but this was so much fun🤩😂

[@thebasedgodmax1163]

sporcle is great, it's still fairly popular so it's nice to see this video on it too!

[@jennahlatham]

Little women is a new favorite book of mine. I read it for the first time this year, PLEASE READ IT EMMA

[@martinelanglois3158]

That was so much fun!! 🤩 I am surprised you didn't hear me shouting some answers. Please do this again!! 🙏

[@queentatoune]

This was fun ! Some people come up with such good quizz concepts haha. Trivia bight would be very entertaining 😀

[@erinh7450]

That was fun! And indeed, how did no one ever tell you to read Little Women? 😂 Get on that! 🤣🤣🤣

[@penultimateh766]

Our host will master any video format with her intelligence, soft voice, and cute haircut.

[@mashelitaaa]

Okay, now I got to read Little Wonem

[@victoriah.2083]

Another great series was Steve Allen's : MEETING OF THE MINDS. Where famous characters in history get together for Dinner and discuss problems, literature, issues of the day, philosophy, etc. So good. Steve Allen & his wife portrayed a couple of characters.

[@inokas1709]

Yes!. I want chill live streames with Emma

[@SF-op5ix]

Little Women was the first classic that I actually enjoyed when I was a child.

[@ketkidavda8588]

this looks like so much fun!

[@ayeshazafar1641]

The chokehold Sporcle literature quizzes had on me like two weeks ago make this video extra special.

[@emmiereads]

It feels like you could get sucked in forever 😂

[@68BarbP]

Went by Louisa Mae Alcott’s orchard house near Concord MA on a New England autumn tour.

[@chelleandpoppy6379]

Yes. Absolutely read Titus Andronicus, but maybe not if you need a mental health break 😅 Trivia would be SO fun. The SuperCarlinBrothers host trivia nights and they live stream on KZbin and use Kahoot. But ik Kahoot limits the number of people you can have so they were having issues with that

[@VideosOfRandomContext]

You’d make a fantastic English teacher 😂 so knowledgeable

[@medsm3113]

Emmie this was lovely and very fun to watch ♡

[@lililola264]

This was so entertaining!! Great video idea Emma :D ❤

[@ArtBookshelfOdyssey]

I love Poe's Murder Mystery Dinner! And I'll be spending a lot of time on this website now, thanks! And YES, read Little Women!

[@water-bottle28]

This video was so fun! I really enjoyed it.

[@julieannelovesbooks]

‘Both my parents and my teacher took it away from me’ 😂😂😂😂 sounds about right

[@halfgodfairy8654]

Just woke up from my 1h nap and am really not feeling well so this is perfect right now!!

[@eliezeraltshul8550]

Feel better

[@emmiereads]

oh no :( hope you're doing a bit better now!

[@nicky_bee]

Yes to both Little Women and trivia night 👍

[@annarrah]

Trivia night sounds amazing I am all for this! 🥰

[@trishnickles2236]

Hi, Emma, I loved the trivia games, and do hope you offer more in the future. Thank you for your wonderful videos, I always keep pen and paper nearby for your recommendations. Best of luck with your exams! 💕💕☕☕

[@denisefreitas6727]

Loved it! Waiting for ep.2 already! 😊

[@emilyreads5207]

Yes,you DO need to read Little Women. It's a classic!

[@paulmyers9049]

im reading dead souls by nikoli gogol, and im loving it! alot! you are my favorite, emma 😞😖

[@victoriah.2083]

You gotta do more of these! I think yr fan fam loves ❤️ 😍 it!!

[@saranshnegi6535]

3000% onboard for the stream idea. Please, kind lady, bless us! 🙏 I was so engrossed that I had completely forgotten this was a video and not a stream and I was just screaming Ayn Rand Atlas Shrugged Dagny Taggart/John Galt to the screen every time it came up. hehe.😄 Thank you for your content, Emma :) * curtsyssss out *

[@StavrosGaredakis]

Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury was an amazing, albeit challenging, read - worth the pain

[@camscornerbooks]

Oh gosh this looks so fun! I may have to try this myself 😂 and fail sooooo bad

[@sammyfigs]

THIS IS SUCH A CUTE IDEA! I watched this whole thing while working •ᴗ•

[@emmiereads]

awe hope you had a wonderful Friday
