The moment he said „I should have checked it first, but I’m sure it’s gonna be fine” I knew it would not be fine. Thanks for always being so relatable, really felt that. Lovely video as always :)

[@prasannapariyadath]

[@Katertot8895]

I love The View Was Exhausting! If you like Evelyn Hugo or Daisy Jones, you will probably like it, but it's much more of a romance than either of those. (Also, if you want more books about fake famous people, might I suggest Mary Jane by Jessica Anya Blau! It's about a girl who is a nanny for a family who has a famous couple staying with them in the 60s/70s and it's just so sweet and fun)

[@rashichoudhary2006]

I really want to recommend a book to you. It's a short story collection called Dangling Gandhi by Jayanti Sankar. Nothing really happens but it is kind of a commentary on human behaviour. Plus I know you like reading diverse literature.

[@fruitykrueger]

Not a recommendation for me but it sounds so interesting so i'm gonna go and check it out lol, thank you

[@maxlover181]

Jack, if you haven’t read Annie Dillard’s book called The Writing Life, it is inspirational especially to someone aspiring to write books. It got me out of my writing slump and existential despair. Also her book Pilgrim at Tinker Creek which won the Pulitzer Prize is phenomenal as well kind of has the same aesthetic as Mary Oliver’s Upstream.

It's super interesting that you find 'a novel' on book covers gives literary fiction vibes - it gives me 'wants to be literary fiction but actually a book club book' vibes - you know those books that are sort of literary but still accessible enough to be mainstream/commercially popular? That's what 'a novel' says to me 😂
