TBR jar prompts pick my reads for november 🫙🤎

[@pat_pat5]

okay I don't usually comment, but you're one of my comfort yters I love the direction you took with your channel to make it more book focused! Please, please, please give Maggie O'Farrell and her books a chance. My favourite is her memoir (it doesn't read as memoir) "I am, I am, I am: Seventeen brushes with death", she had me sobbing on page 50

[@scrivspo]

thank you for commenting and supporting me!!! this comment means the world. I promise i will read hamnet & eventually her memoir 💕

[@sarahfox3251]

Her memoir is spectacular! Definitely one of my favorite books of the past few years

[@rebekahkbertram]

Brando Sando is epic!! You’ll love the final empire

[@scrivspo]

I am sooo excited

[@lucycanread]

yayyyyy final empire!!! i'd never read anything like it before so the first 100 pages was a lot of learning, but i ended up looooving the entire series. sanderson is a fantastic writer

[@scrivspo]

I’m sooo excited

[@BooksofAmber]

the final empire reads sooo quickly, you'll be fine!! HEIR OF FIRE YESSSS, my fave is QOS but Heir of Fire was the first one to make me cry

[@scrivspo]

I’m loving heir of fire so much already 😭😭

[@sofiyaguganskaya]

I adored Emily Wyldes!! People say its a cozy vibe but it kinda gets intense at some points and all the different creatures are so fun and vivid!

[@scrivspo]

Omg yayyy

[@dolly_fail]

i’ve finished “piranesi” today and fell in love with this book! i actually learned about it because of your video, so if you haven’t read it already, i highly recommend!! it’s so magical and one of a kind now i started “a certain hunger” and so far it’s great! i can already tell that it’s gonna be one of my favourite books this year

[@scrivspo]

I am soooo excited to read piranesi i think im gunna love it!!

[@tgrubi]

Can't wait for you to pick Hamnet for your TBR in September 2036

[@scrivspo]

Lmaoooo

I loved The Final Empire! I feel like it takes about 100 or so pages to get into it, but then it gets really good!!

[@scrivspo]

Yayyyy these comments have me so excited

I was so excited to get back from work to watch this!! Harriet, you make my day

[@scrivspo]

You just made my day 🥹🩷

I don’t really comment on people’s videos but I recently found your channel and love it! I LOVE Throne of Glass series and I am currently on Queen of Shadows! Heir of Fire is SO good!

Love you moreeee!!!!

[@anneelzinga6536]

Heir of Fire was really hard for me to read in TOG. BUT all of the slug from the beginning of the series is worth getting through to read the rest. Happy reading!

[@scrivspo]

im actually loving it!!! so many people have similar thoughts to you but i've been hooked since the beginning of heir of fire 😂

[@anneelzinga6536]

@@scrivspo I love that for you! can't wait to hear more of your thoughts on it!

The Night Circus is such a good book!! I read it recently and I am obsessed

[@scrivspo]

I have genuinely not heard a single bad thing about it!!!

[@Sammetje]

I'm currently reading Animal Farm from George Orwell. It's a short story but the meaning of it is so cool. Perfect if your into a history! I love the book😊

[@scrivspo]

I read that in school! Such an amazing concept

[@cassandrafortin4684]

So excited for your TOG journey! The best is yet to come (QUEEEEEEN OF SHADOWS!!!!)

[@cassandrafortin4684]

The final empire is incredible. I'll read The well of ascension in November!

[@cassandrafortin4684]

PS : add the Sci-Fi series to my tbr, seems like my thing! :)

would be cool to see a how much you read in a week or just a random reading challenge type video

[@scrivspo]

Yesss planning on doing this soon! Need to start clearing out my TBR hahaha

[@BookswithKaitlyn]

@@scrivspo Imagine doing a 24hr reading challenge. Doesn't need to be straight. Could be timer method. That could get a little chaotic but might help get you out of your slump

[@klatskyn]

I read The Final Empire during a reading slump and it completely captured my attention from the first page. I had no issues getting through it at all, and it got me right out of my slump. Highly recommend!

[@scrivspo]

ahhh i'm actually so excited

[@melodycollis]

Loved this so much 🫶🏼💞🥰

[@scrivspo]

love youuuu

[@lucyservo6574]

I never thought id see hamnet in the pile!! Enjoy! 😁

[@scrivspo]

Thank you!! I’m excited

[@gomohatch]

If you want a book that is SO worth the hype, the easiest 5 star I've given in ages, Song of Achilles by Madeleine Miller is THAT girl. It has a beautiful, heart-wrenching tragic romance with a backdrop of historical fantasy, truly a story that has stuck with me

[@scrivspo]

I have read this and it was a 6 star!! One of my faves of all time

[@gomohatch]

@@scrivspo You GET ITTTT. Still chasing this feeling tbh

[@alanacarroll5337]

Hi fellow Melbourne girly! I just started The Final Empire last week. I’m about 250ish pages in. I got the audiobook to read alongside as I was a little intimidated. I’ve really enjoyed it so far! It’s my first high fantasy book and was a little scared it would go over the top of my head but it hasn’t and I’m enjoying it a lot so far! Perhaps a TAD slow but I am reading it quite slow, just a little bit each night so maybe that’s why haha! Looking forward to see if you get to it this month! 💕

[@scrivspo]

this is so good to know!! i'm excited to read it!

[@kcnbt99]

Yaaaaas, almost every book you chose are either books I've read and were 4 ⭐ or higher or are on my tbr! You'll have to tell me how City of Bones is. It sounds great. I think you're going to really enjoy Mistborn 1. It could have been a standalone if Brandon didn't want to continue it but it's ending is so good. Wild Love isn't really up my street personally but if it's good, let us know! Haha

[@scrivspo]

Yayyy I’m excited to start my Brando sando journey

[@inklings1998]

I have yet to read the Daevabad Trilogy (City of Brass), but The Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi by the same author was my favorite book of last year. Highly recommend!!

[@scrivspo]

Oh yayyyy I’ll definitely get to this at some point!

[@saalexanderson699]

I loved Hamnet 😊

[@scrivspo]

i'm excited to read it!!

[@BooksofAmber]

omg i commented too quickly, The City of Brass is one of my favourite books (and series) ever. It's honestly incredible. I hope you can get to it soon!

[@scrivspo]

Omg this makes me so excited!!!!

[@KeriaynMunnich]

Emily Wilde is probs my favorite book of 2024

[@scrivspo]

Now I’m even more excited to read it!!

[@imo9193]

Im excited to see what you think of The Final Empire! Ive not read it but also interested to get into more fantasy ❤

[@scrivspo]

I’ll be sure to film me reading it!!

[@notnecessarilyinthatorder6048]

The Final Empire is soooo good! Yes it's long but I don't remember there being any point where I was bored. Everything about the story is designed to hold your attention and if you want fantasy where romance is hinted at but kept as only one part of the story then it's the perfect choice. Hope you love it! ☺

[@scrivspo]

Yayyyy I’m literally so excited

[@Lizzy43645]

I’m an American that LOVES Liane Moriarty! I just bought her newest book and it’s next on my list to read.

Ahhh be sure to join our book club if you haven’t already so we can discuss!!!

[@indiamackay8413]

Another month goes by without the Night Circus making the cut - I love watching these vids but girl pls pick the book! Ps have added so many books to my own TBR from these videos 💜💜

[@scrivspo]

😂😂😂

[@BatshevaDueck.]

just added city of brass to my TBR. also, I just read a phenomenal book, I wonder if you'd like it. It's literary fiction-- and not the literary fiction that a lot of book girlies on here confuse with contemporary fiction. It's actual literary fiction. It's called The Magic Strings Of Frankie Presto by Mitch Albom. It's told mostly from the point of view of music, as it follows a boy named Frankie Presto, found on the shores of a river bank during the Spanish civil war, as he grows up to become a music star in the 60's, and his relationship with music throughout his life. Moved me so much.

[@scrivspo]

I honestly never know the difference between all the fictions 😂 that book sounds so interesting! I need to look into it!

[@debra9916]

I highly recommend the Dune Series; it’s the grandfather of desert fantasy.

[@scrivspo]

This series scares me hahaha

I chose 5 with my Prompt Jar's Help A Book with Lettering on the cover- Wilder Girls by Rory Powers A Male Author- The Psychopathology of Everyday Life by Sigmund Freud Book from Shelf #___: Cotton Town Girls by Leah Fleming A Book Published after 2010- Look for Me by Jessica Barry Number in the Title: 1 True Loves by Taylor Jenkins Reid

Ohh, I'm so sad you didn't choose The Book Thief for the "the" prompt, it's one of my faves! It's narrated by Death, it's so good! 😁

[@scrivspo]

I’m super excited to read it I’m just scared it’s gunna make me cry hahaha

[@REGINLEIIF]

Currently reading Hamnet and I'm half-way through. It's a tough read, I have to force myself to read it a lot of times cause I don't like the structuring (it often shifts perspective between and in the middle of chapters which I'm not a huge fan of). But it's definitely a good read, the writing is fantastically executed and I have a feeling that it's gonna be a very emotional book towards the end. Already have my tissue papers ready 🥹

[@scrivspo]

awww okay this is good to know, i'll definitely push through!!!

[@REGINLEIIF]

@scrivspo just finished it and thought I'd let you know it's definitely worth the read! It's beautiful and gut-wrenching all at once. A little after the half-way mark it definitely becomes an easier read which I find happens for me with most books. Good luck on getting through, I'm sure you won't regret it 🤞

[@carriecobb8]

Haha! I knew immediately you were going to pick Wild Love and Hamnet for those 2 prompts! I didn’t mind Wild Love except for the sex scenes 😬😳😄 Would love to hear your thoughts on Wool, it’s been on your tbr for a while! I really enjoyed the trilogy. My rec (as always 😋) A Darker Shade of Magic!

wait can you read city of brass soon and post an hour long video reading it cause that looks good and i need to know if u like it

the first mist born book is one of the best fantasy books I've ever read. did not like the other 2 in the series as they're way more political based, but this one was excellent and thrilling and slightly romantic

Oooh interesting, okay good to know!!

[@REGINLEIIF]

I recently read the first two books of the Morgan Le Fay trilogy by Sophie Keetch (I'm a huge sucker for mythological retellings) and I think you'll like them, I can definitely recommend it, especially the 2nd book had me in tears. The 3rd book is gonna be released next year and I'm so eager to get my hands on it.

I was flying through books every month and loved the Acotar series but then read the throne of glass series, got half way through Heir of Fire and fell into a massive reading slump, I don’t think they read as well as the Acotar series. I don’t like starting another book until I’ve finished the one I’m on and I can’t bring myself to walk away from a series I’m half way through so now I’m just not reading at all 😢

Not in Love is not erotic. I'm not sure why it got that rep, but there have been books way spicier, such as Ice Breaker by Hannah Grace. It's just a bit spicier than her usual. Here One Moment was awesome!

[@scrivspo]

It’s marketed as an erotic romance! Icebreaker should definitely also be marketed as that lmao that book was insane 😂

I'm sorry you're still kind of in a slump! I hope you are able to get out of it soon. You have a lot of thiccc books in your collection, so I don't know if finding some shorter books would help to fill in the gaps and not feel so overwhelming. I always go for shorter books or comfort reads when I'm in a slump, so maybe that would help? Or maybe you could buy a collection like Edgar Allen Poe and treat each short story as a standalone. :) Let me know if you want a list or something, lol. I hope you're enjoying the spring weather! It's getting cold here, even though the US is a dumpster fire in every other way right now, lmao. 😂
