[@theshadishow9255]

Hahaha yesss to the upside down tap-dancing! Another lovely vlog, thank you so much for the cozy viewing!

[@riannafinty4979]

Your vlogs are honestly so comforting 🥰 especially as a fellow Rory Gilmore lover! Can’t believe I also get my haircut there, I’ve never felt like my hair was cut with my curls in mind till I went! Your hair is so gorgeous ✨

[@nurbarlas4155]

I also love Khaled Hosseini's books! They are incredible and emotional. "A Thousand Splendid Suns" is also my favorite of his novels.

[@ciarascorner]

He just has the most incredible writing style!

[@nurbarlas4155]

@@ciarascorner He really does! You also make the coziest vlogs!

[@neetupd8510]

I loved A Thousand Splendid Suns...yet to read The Kite Runner 😊 I'm currently reading The Help by Kathryn Stockett... and enjoying it so far!

[@ciarascorner]

Hope you enjoy the kite runner when you read it!

[@Maerish]

I love Mrs Dalloway, but to be honest, I read it once in my early 20s and really didn't like it: her writing style was overwhelming and I could not relate with any of the characters. I read it again in my thirties and things changed completely, I liked it a lot! Life experience of course helped the appreciation, so I suggest you to give it another chance later in life. I read it again recently, to be precise I listened to the audiobook, and I fell in love with it! And that imo is the perfect form for the stream of consciousness movement.

[@legendaryreader39]

The Kite Runner is one of my favorite books 📚😍

[@marzenasz6524]

I picked Fahrenheit 451 and and One Hundred Years of Solitude ☕️ I love your readathons especially GG 💕

[@jamesduggan7200]

Excellent choices IMHO

[@ciarascorner]

Hope you enjoyed!

[@Sophia-cd2ci]

I love Virginia Woolf!! Mrs Dalloway is one of my favourite books - I think it's absolutely beautiful. Obviously it's completely okay to disagree, I just felt that this comment section could use some support for Team Woolf 🙃

[@ciarascorner]

Oh absolutely! I’m glad there are so many people who do love Mrs Dalloway - sadly wasn’t for me but I’m glad you love it!

[@libellulareading8859]

Ciara, I love your channel. I love how much thought and effort you put into your videos, and how long you make them! I get so excited to curl up on my couch and hang out with you. What's funny is, when I first started watching you, I thought you looked SO much like Rory Gilmore, but the more I watch your channel, and "get to know you", the less you look like someone else, and the more you look like Ciara! Hopefully that makes sense haha! Lots of love from coastal North Carolina, United States!

[@ffiontill5924]

To anyone who hasn’t yet listened to the latest episode of the we’re spinning plates podcast….. go listen to it! Possibly my favourite episode so far, so fun to get an insight into Ciara and Ems family life both of their sisters feature. And was just such a fun listen and really lovely💗

[@ciarascorner]

Thanks so much - im so glad you enjoyed it!

[@mariethavermeulen1714]

Yaayyy gotta love readathonss 😍😍

[@ciarascorner]

Hahaha absolutely!!

[@ffiontill5924]

Another fabulous vlog! Haha loved the death glare you gave banksy when he interrupted you with his sneezing. Ugh I wish there was a Gilmore girls experience in the UK. How awesome would it be to arrange a meet up there?! Grab a coffee and a danish, read some books and wander through stars hollow😩 yes yes yes team Jess all the way. When he was the bad boy and when he had grown and matured and was a good influence too. Not gonna lie, when you said you were going for a hair cut I thought you were gonna pull a Rory and get a Bob. Also I think it’s so cute how you and Jay consistently train together! Ngl Rory probably isn’t my favourite character in the show😬 dont hate me but I guess her having flaws is just what makes the show all that more realistic? Okay now I’m gonna go and watch some of my favourite episodes for the hundredth time. Sending much love. Thanks for a great video :D x

[@ciarascorner]

Hahahah, Gatsby can sometimes just sneeze for so long so it’s a look of “are you done” and omg a Gilmore girls experience would be amazing!

[@MartinDSmith]

I'm pretty sure I have recorded a recent TV series on Hemingway I've yet to watch,and I did go to see The Kite Runner when it was released.I am a very slow reader because I try to savour the nuances of the writing but also in some instances an author stops you in your tracks and time becomes irrelevant.

[@ciarascorner]

I definitely need to watch the kite runner!

[@johnsaxongitno4life588]

I am really sorry that i missed this one love you and your amazing channel please stay safe and enjoy your reading love your Australia fan John

[@ciarascorner]

Thanks so much John!

[@johnsaxongitno4life588]

@@ciarascorner no worries 😉

[@JAKandtheBookStack]

I agree with Dalloway, but I checked out the Spark Notes analysis and WOW I had a whole lot more appreciation for it. I mean, I still didn’t enjoy the reading experience, but I respect it now. I think there was much more symbolism than I was smart enough to get!

[@TheNostalgicKitchen]

Love your content! You deserve a million subscribers at least!

[@andreeastiopu1831]

Yey! I have been waiting for this! I also don’t like Virginia’s novels. I tried, but could not get into them. Lovely vlog, as always, Ciara! Xoxo

[@ciarascorner]

I’m glad it’s not just me haha! And thanks so much!

[@jessxo5490]

that blue top really suits you x

You picked up some great reads for this readathon!!

U look absolutely stunning today

Thank you so much!

Aww thank you!!

[@heatherjmillar]

Where is your Luke’s Mug from? I need it!💖

[@gracedavies2252]

I remember reading Mrs Dalloway at A-level and having basically no idea what the plot was or what the point of the story was !! This looks like such a dreamy day - doughnuts reading and Gilmore girls, I'm relaxed from watching vicariously :P

[@ciarascorner]

Hahaha I’m still not clear what the book was really about😂 and can confirm it was a truly wonderful day!!

[@maddieoggero5263]

Omg I’m so bummed you didn’t like Mrs. Dalloway! That was my favorite book so far this year. I can definitely see how it’s not for everyone though

[@ciarascorner]

I so wanted to enjoy it but I just couldn’t get into the writing style!

[@frodobaggins4255]

You should also watch the kite runner movie!!

[@ciarascorner]

I definitely will!

[@sunshinelorena]

I read Mrs Dalloway as well and didn't like it. It too me longer than expected to read as I struggled with the writing style. The readathon was so fun 😃

[@jamesduggan7200]

Maybe you read the version that omits the chapter where Peter kills Richard in a duel, and Clarissa runs away with him?

[@ciarascorner]

For such a short book, it felt SO long!😂

[@YourTrueShelf]

I loved this sooo much and didn't want it to end!! I discovered gilmore girls really recently and I'm just coming to the end of season 1 - I was so nervous for spoilers lol. I adored dawsons creek when I was a teen, and they're both set in the same time period - I was the same age as the characters when they came out, so it's huge teen nostalgia for me, the music and everything 😍 I love love love khaled housseini too, the kite runner broke my heart. I really enjoyed Mrs Dalloway. Apparently Hemingway wasn't very nice and was a serial cheater and womaniser!! I have a fiction book called Mrs Hemingway on my tbr.

[@ciarascorner]

Aww I’m so glad you enjoyed! I never watched Dawson’s Creek but know a lot of people who like Gilmore Girls also enjoy it! And ooh interesting - after reading some Hemingway, I can definitely believe that he wasn’t very nice!

[@YourTrueShelf]

@@ciarascorner dawson's creek is all on Netflix - you won't regret it lol 😊

[@myronemmaturner]

I read mrs dalloway for the readathon too and gave it 1 star, it's almost put me in a reading slump 😬

[@ciarascorner]

I honestly don’t blame you - it was a real struggle to read!

[@myronemmaturner]

@@ciarascorner i was honestly not expecting that, i read one of her essays "a room of one's own" and i really liked it, it wasn't disjointed and some points were made, but this was a struggle. In comparison, i read the old man and the sea and even though i didn't absolutely love it at least it had a linear story.

[@heybookworm]

Where do you bought your brown cardigan or sweather?

[@ciarascorner]

It’s from h&m

[@helloitsme5727]

Actually, you look a lot like Rory!

[@jamesduggan7200]

Logan is a perfect Romantic hero, tho perhaps he's not perfect for Rory. You really hit the bull's eye reviewing Kite Runner - very hard book. To do a handstand is not easy. Agree, the long locks still are lovely. Same basic dynamic between Peter, Clarissa, and Richard as Jay, Daisy, and Tom but much different ending. Thx, hope to see you in the next club show.

[@ciarascorner]

That’s such an interesting way to look at Mrs Dalloway - I hadn’t considered that but you’re right! Which makes it even more interesting that I love The Great Gatsby so much but really didn’t like Mrs Dalloway!

[@kirstenhamann4930]

Mmmm... that vegan Luke’s style dinner looks sooo yummy!!! 🍔🍟🍨

[@ciarascorner]

It was so delicious!

[@spoopywife]

Loved this readathon! Out of curiosity, what was Jay reading? I could only half see the cover lol

[@assiakessai]

Hi , do you have any videos about Virginia Woolf books cause I have her work collection and I dont know were to start

[@ciarascorner]

I’m afraid not as I’m not really a fan of her stuff

[@jiji-wr3qh]

I liked "The Tooth" a lot more than "The Lottery" of the Shirley Jackson short story collection. I think in "The Tooth" her wiriting style so much more interesting. And the story is just sooo deep in meaning through this writing style.

[@annabattaglia6357]

you look a lot like her though, it's impressing

[@ciarascorner]

Hahah thanks so much!

[@monaedoyle3631]

Hello. It’s been a very long time since I watched The Gilmore Girls television series. In Georgia Longhorn Steakhouse has the best hamburger 🍔 in the world. I have never had a vegan brownie I prefer a rich and sweet milk chocolate brownie. Right now I am in the mood for some paranormal romance books. I am reading a book that has vampires in it 🧛🏻‍♀️

[@ciarascorner]

Can confirm vegan brownies are delicious!!

[@marija5604]

you look so much like rory

I have read A Farewell To Arms by Hemingway this summer and I thought the portrayal of WWI was really interesting, the romance was trash though.

ohh I'm glad I'm not the only one who didn't like Mrs Dalloway! Nothing against Virginia Woolf, maybe her writing is just not for me either

[@ciarascorner]

Yeah I think it’s just not a writing style I enjoy!

Someday you should cut your hair to shoulder length. My hair is very curly but my the curls get stretched out the longer it is. So I bet you’d have insanely curly hair like mine if you cut it a little shorter.

[@ciarascorner]

I used to have shorter hair but that was when I used to straighten it, - can’t imagine myself with short hair now! I find that when my hair is shorter, it gets wider so I end up looking like Lord Farquad from shrek ahahha

[@theokiereader]

@@ciarascorner Haha omg Lord Farquad! Mine can do that to but if I have them put in layers and tappers, it really makes a difference. Have you tried layers and tappers?

🎵Where you lead I will fallow anywhere that you tell me to… If You need Me to Be with you where lead🎵 I feel you I recently got a 💇🏻‍♀️ usually I like my hair long, but now I’ve gone for a six inch cut and feels so nice‼️ My hair is wavy but mostly straight. 🎃 Spice 🍩 😋‼️I haven’t read any Virginia Wolf so I wouldn’t what to tell you‼️ Ps: I finished Kate in Waiting and it was so sweet! I got 17 chapters and 150 pages to go in Oliver Twist, if I don’t finish by the end of September, I think I’ll save it for Victober! Last but not least I decided to pick up The Darkness Outside of Us; it’s good and I’m halfway done with it!

Oh my goodness, a 6 inch hair cut, I bet that feels so nice (don’t think I could be that brave hahah)!
