Had a roomie in grad school. She was this 6 foot red head studying biochem. Her thing was to have 2 glasses of wine while watching all the medical shows on Wednesday night (ER, Grey's Anatomy). One Wednesday, she had three glasses of wine and a little bit of truth came out. You see, as a biochem lab assistant , she had access to some of the deadliest pathogens known to man. On this one particular wine infused Wednesday night, she declared with overmuch enthusiasm "I could kill soooooooo many people." When covid came out, my first instinct was to wonder if she was involved somehow. She's prolly deadlier than the assassin with a zero bodycount.

Face blindness is actually a very interesting syndrome! People with face blindness can't recognize the faces of those they love or often their own faces. Some also can't connect faces to celebrities or important people, but patients never seem to realize why they can't recognize people. However, they do use other cues (like clothes and body shape) to recognize people. If someone can't recognize their mom's face, they might see her shirt and infer that it's their mom because they know it's their mom's shirt, and why would someone else wear her shirt? Very interesting stuff!!

I have some face blindness. I don’t think it’s that uncommon among autistic people, which I am. From what I understand, it might be because we don’t look at someone’s whole face as one “item,” so it’s hard to recognize people, especially outside of the environment where we normally see them. I once wasn’t sure if someone I saw at the mall was my dad, so I snuck away until the rest of my family gathered with him so I could recognize them as a group. I try to notice what people are wearing, but I sometimes forget to take a mental note of it.

I had a brain tumor (I'm fine!) But as a side effect I have partial facial blindness. I failed a facial recall test so badly the therapist thought I was lying. It takes FOREVER to remember a face (like a coworker) and if they have too similar features I will mix them up constantly. Like 2 thin pale brunettes with brown eyes I will mix them up all the time if I have no distinct feature to latch my mind onto. Like, watching "the departed" i literally couldnt tell the 2 main characters were 2 different actors so I was SO confused watching it. I do recognize a face as a face, and they are familiar after a prolonged time, but its... odd. Especially since I didn't have it my whole life it happened when I was 19 Edit: this problem has been EXTRA fun with all the masks during covid lol

I also read skyward this year (got it from the library because I'm a big Brandon Sanderson fan, only realised later it was young adult) and I definitely understand your dislike for it. I do however think it is almost infinitely better than throne of glass, if only because unlike Sanderson, Maas actually seems to believe her main character when she's going on about how she could kill everyone in the room. (Also, and I may be in the minority here, I thought Spensa's over the top threats were kind of funny)

The protagonist of Throne of Glass is that one guy you never want in your D&D party - makes his character the ultimate deviant art rogue whos simultaneously an ultra badass whos great at everything but also the underdog with a tragic backstory who you should feel sorry for, they then spend the entire campaign acting cocky and bragging about how they could get through any task but never contributes to solving actual problems in the slightest.

Listen, I read Throne of Glass, whole series. Loved it. BUT, I 1000000% agree that Celaena's whole "I'm the best" yet we never see it is my biggest critique with the first two books (she makes some stupid mistakes in book 2 also that "the best assassin" shouldn't really be making). And honestly? Once I read the whole series, book 1 felt so drastically different from where we end up at the conclusion of the series, like it almost didn't even feel like it was part of the same series as the other books. I loved the series, but it has its flaws. Telling but never showing us how deadly Celaena is was the biggest flaw of the series. Is that due to SJM having written it so young? Who knows.

copied from NHS Prosopagnosia, also known as face blindness, means you cannot recognise people's faces. Face blindness often affects people from birth and is usually a problem a person has for most or all of their life. It can have a severe impact on everyday life. Many people with prosopagnosia are not able to recognise family members, partners or friends. They may cope by using alternative strategies to recognise people, such as remembering the way they walk or their hairstyle, voice or clothing. But these types of strategies do not always work - for example, when a person with prosopagnosia meets someone in an unfamiliar location.

(just kidding, I don't have patience in reading English in general and I can count with my fingers how many books in English I have read. I like writing though... ) Emma, you somehow inspired me on reading and I hope I can keep up with reading books this year. Cheers

My friend has face blindness, it's wild! She depends on a person's voice, gait, body, clothes, etc to determine who it is bc the things that distinguish a person from someone else (the shape of the nose, eyes, jawline, etc) all look the same to her. It only takes a couple convos before she can tell who you are which is so impressive

Hey Emma, this is my first time leaving a comment but have been a long time watcher of the channel! Couldn’t help leave a mystery thriller recommendation for you when I saw you talked about how you’re not a fan of those plot twists. I have the same problem with thrillers and almost always gave those a three stars rating. The only one I gave a five star rating is “the alienist”. It is quite graphic and brutal, but the criminology and psychology behind the story is so good. Some of the characters are legit scientists, so they approach the case in a research kind of way which I found so refreshing! Hope you will pick it up someday. And just want to say thank you for the amazing contents you put out.

I actually loved the throne of glass bcs the first time I read the book I was so in love with how strong the protagonist was. I think it was the first time I realized woman can be really strong and charming (bcs previously I had only found books with female protagonist who are super dependent and weak not only physically but also mentally and emotionally so I never felt identified with them and only frustrated that woman were only weak always) I think that’s why I still love that first book. But I also understand what you mean about her being said to be the best but then it’s never showed. Maybe if I read the book today I’ll feel the same way you do but still I think it opened the door for me to really understand what I liked in a female character (in this case someone who doesn’t need a boy to survive and who is at least a little bit independent and not hypocrite)

I'm not reading three books to get why people love that series so much.

I've heard this view on Artemis multiple times now, and it kinda hits me personally because I relate to the main character SO much to the point that I am her in a way. Just that I'm in my mid thirties now and have grown past most if not all my internalised misogyny and self-deprecating attitude. I understand the ways she talks about herself are weird if you've never been that way, but women like that exist and it's something that you get past at some point or not. The book portrays her as an extremely intelligent and skilled person whose sense of self worth is at rock bottom. I don't blame Andy Weir for writing her in that way and I don't think it's a bad case of men writing women. Not that I intend to or can change anyone's mind, just giving my own perspective :)

From the weird start to the end, I couldn't care less about any of the characters. I will never suffer through a colleen Hoover book again! Thanks for you vlog I recommend to everybody!!

5:10 a book like that exists and its name is gideon the ninth. idk if you've read it, i just got here, but i recommend it because it's very uniquely written and the mc is undoubtedly a lesbian and i love lesbian representation. also the way you described the plot of Gothikana it just reminded me of Roblox roleplay i used to do when i was 10

That is so cool - the competition you described “in a castle, the last one surviving is the best assassin” - I would totally read that book. I’m not into gore, but a clever YA/fantasy book with that tournament would be interesting. Also would buy the book where it turns out she is in asylum and everyone is humoring her 😂 but then she actually gets out 😂

emma!! i felt nostalgic bc of nostalgia about Shivers in your last video and so i got it on my kindle and ate it up in a day🥲🥲 i literally have never read or liked books about werewolves or vampires and stuff, but you spoke so beautifully and lovingly about shivers that i wanted to experience it myself… its not bad at all. i wish i had read it when i was younger😅 idk how people can dislike it, as you said. anyways. just wanted to let you know that i appreciated reading shivers bc of your nostalgic review of it❤️

i said when you read throttled that i wanted to read it because i was intrigued by how bad you said it was and i finally finished it a couple of days ago and it almost definitely will be the worst book of 2023. i didn't have anything too outrageously bad last year but this year i have that. it was so bad

Happy New Year! Tipsy Emma makes me giggle. My worst book of 2022 was Of Mice and Men. I still want to try more Steinbeck, but that one did nothing for me. Also, I didn't want to admit it in your previous videos, but Artemis is actually on my shelf. It was gifted to me, and I now I really don't want to read it lol.

Waitttt the comment of Sarah J Maas just telling you the characters is the strongest ever is so true! When I read ACOTAR I was waiiiiiting for Rhys to obliterate everything in the blink of an eye but my guy didn’t do shit. Ever. I mean, I still love the books but I can be objective too 🤣

Gothikana sounds like a pile of wet laundry someone forgot about in the washing machine, that didn't even have any detergent in there anyway, then they put it through the tumble dryer with a turd.

It cracks me up that the trope gets used so often in fantasy, because the whole idea of a famous assassin is just ridiculous. The only way in the real world to became a famous assassin is if by getting caught. And then they aren't really famous, they are infamous. Also cracking me up, your liver literally not knowing how to process alcohol. 🍷😂 The Last of the Mohicans by James Fenimore Cooper was my worst book. It's pretty awful. Avoid the book. Watch the 1992 movie instead
