[@sukisimasizuku]

I finished The Count of Monte Cristo literally 2 days ago AND I FEEL SO GOOD FOR YOU WHO HAS A GIFT LIKE THIS. DON'T BE AFRAID OF HOW LONG IT LOOKS, REALLY. IT'S ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS I'VE EVER READ AND YOU WON'T REGRET IT. Actually a video just for this book would be awesome, like war and peace, hehe.

[@throneofpages]

Thank you for the encouragement!! I’m gonna need it 😩💓👏

Now you made me curious i will add it to my 2023 tbr. My version is split into 2 so it's not that intimidating haha

if you don’t want to burn through your candles, get a candle warmer!! i recently saw someone say that they use one to be able to get the scent of the candle without burning it (the scent won’t be as strong though), but it makes it last longer! 🎄

[@throneofpages]

hellooo i had never heard of that before!! i'll definitely be getting a candle warmer now 👀👀👀

i also got the count of monte cristo for christmas! im actually a little over halfway through it and it’s really good! it’s quick and engaging. i think it’s going to become one of my all time favorites. the length is intimidating but once you start it’s totally worth it.

[@throneofpages]

That’s so reassuring!! Thank you 🥹💓🥹

[@ham20403]

ur excitement over books makes me so happy i love it 🎄

Watching this before work and I’m getting secondhand dopamine hit from watching you unbox things (I’m trying so hard not to shop for me during holidays 😂)

[@throneofpages]

SHOP FOR YOURSELF YOU DESERVE IT 😤

[@sercemwksiazkach]

This video was so much fun to watch!! Those were great gifts and watching you get excited about them was awesome. 💕🎄Also, I’ve read The Count of Monte Christo this year and it was SO MUCH FUN like despite its length you can fly through it bc there’s a lot of adventures and the characters have interesting character arcs. I also think that the language is easier to get through than in War and Peace, so it shouldn’t give you a hard time. After finishing War and Peace you’re invincible in my mind 😆 On a side note, I adore Antifragile as well 🎉

[@throneofpages]

Thank you for letting me know 🥹💗 I’m definitely a lot less scared to start Monte Cristo now!!

[@alsouedits8257]

For some clues you give I think you know Spanish so I wanted to give you 2 recommendations of books that you might like, first one is called Donde habitan los Angeles and Atados a una estrella both by Claudia Celis. I think this books are Mexicans. They are sooo wholesome and really short. Btw my English is bad, happy Christmas from Mexico!!

🎄 As you recalled you finished "War and Peace" (with everyone here as eyewitnesses, no less) and should have no problem with "Monte Cristo!" Many of these mammoth books were written for syndication in periodicals first, with installments being printed each week or month, so that when finally reaching completed book form they were huge. Someone on your high level should eventually read the OTHER "Invisible Man" by Ralph Ellison as well. That one is "only" 5-600 pages!👍
