the only books i've rated 5 stars in 2024 (so far)

[@farfalla11]

Something I've noticed is that the books I most frequently recommend are usually 4 stars. Which I think is interesting! My hypothesis is that 4+ means it's a great book, but the 5th star is more personal and may be from things I connect with that aren't as universal? I don't know! But it's interesting!

[@multimedia7034]

i feel the exact same way!

[@cherryfreckle]

I understand that. Even some of my 3 star reads I can acknowledge are still rather good books, for example are written well and have a good plot. However, it's my 5 stars that have hit me more on a deeper level.

[@rurubelle2920]

So true. Most of my 5 star books are pretty disturbing and can have quite a lot of triggers. Hurricane Season by Fernanda Melchor, and Beloved by Toni Morrison are both 5 star reads for me, but they're not necessarily something I would recommend to a person I just met.

[@ellarosemarie]

I completely agree! My 5 stared books have made me feel something others haven’t, and it’s not to say the other books are bad, but to me they don’t quite match to the same degree.

[@delaney8949]

Completely agree!!

[@EBill23]

Keeping us fed with this crème de la fresh content, I see.

[@taliw7736]

Right lol

[@francescatelari]

You should do a video called “Every book I’ve rated 5 stars in my life described in one or two sentences” I think is a way for us to discover hidden gemes. And for you to talk about books you love that you haven’t talk about them in a long time

[@Emmy-rw8yl]

Omg yes I’d love this!!

[@annehk39]

I think it would be easier to just scroll through his goodreads tbh! I really enjoyed this video, I feel like Jack hasnt had the time recently to film a video where he talks about a book for more than 1 minute (each), which I think is such a shame. I love it when the description of the book goes beyond a mere summary. It seems like Jack doesnt have that much time, and I would rather encourage him to make longer video essay-ish content.

[@readingwarlock]

Omg yes yes to this video idea! Tier-ranking all the books Jack rated 5 stars also sound exciting

'The Hidden Truths Of Wealth by Oliver Mercer' is a must read for everyone

[@Erikkurilla01]

Engaging with books has significantly elevated my perspective on investing. True wealth isn't built through mere savings; financial freedom stems from strategic investments. I've learned that accumulating wealth hinges on making prudent investment decisions|

[@Lemariecooper]

Embarking on the investment journey at 40, I envision a triumphant testimony of significant success by the age of 55.

[@jessicasquire]

Books have also changed my perspective on investing. Understanding that real wealth is built through strategic investments rather than mere savings is crucial. Working with an adviser has pointed me in the right direction.

[@meremeth]

All my books are 4-5 stars bc if they're not I don't finish them 🚮

[@jessummlee8866]

Oh, I'm toooo nice. The only books I've rated less than 4 stars are two I really did not enjoy and even then I rated them 3.5 and 3.75. I'm studying a masters in literature and writing so I don't think I'm stupid lol, but I can see merit in most books I read. But I have been reading (trying to read) The Beautiful and Damned by Gatsy for the last 12 months and as soon as I get through it, it's getting 1 star. I don't care how much merit is has, it does not deserve any more (and even as I say that, I feel guilty).

[@jessummlee8866]

That being said, I only have two books that I actually consider 5 star books... I just have a lot of 4, 4.25, 4.5, and 4.75's.

[@teentitansrock88]

That's a stupid thing for someone to say XD you can rate books for any reason you want, and none of them are depended by your "IQ," education, or literary analysis skills. You can rate books based on how much you enjoyed the story, by how well it was written, how well the characters were developed, how well it connected with you, or conversely how well it connected you to a different group of people. For how much it made you laugh, for how corny it was. If I'm looking for a corny read, I want to know if it was an ENJOYABLE corny. Don't anyone fall for that classist rhetoric, the way you review things does not determine nor is determined by your intelligence. ❤

[@chauswriting]

[@deadroses278]

I read white nights after you recommended it, literally finished flipped back a few pages, read the end again and stared at the wall. Whenever I think about it which is at least once a week I still just stare into a wall. But like honestly yeah one of the best books about love

[@AlinaTurner-g9k]

I agree, the same happened to me. Dostoevsky is incredible! I would recommend so many books of his

[@slothnomad4916]

I heard about White Nights because of the aforementioned Jack video. A week later I noticed that different versions of White Nights were on the “Trending on Goodreads” tab on Audible and I’m so glad I listened to it.

[@jmsl_910]

the book leo also reviewed it this week. she's great!

[@MickGimbyComedy]

I read The Details after you recommended it in a prior video and I loved it! I then recommended it to my mom, and she read it and enjoyed it too! Really made me think about characters and how to write in a detailed way - which is important to me as a writer myself. Your recommendations always hit.

* searching a new video to watch bc I’ve caught up on jack’s vlogs * * jack uploads *

[@small_and_dangerous2068]

Jack’s vlogs are great!! If you’d like, here’s my recommendation for some really good but not as well known book creators you can watch in between Jack uploads! My favorite is allisonpaiges. She’s my queen, she is an icon, she’s the moment. Unfortunately she’s on an indefinite hiatus, but if you’re interested, just take a look at her stuff! Her editing is some of the best I’ve ever seen on the site period. She encourages self care, positive mindsets, and living life to the fullest to the best of your capabilities. Her videos are comfort videos for me and I rewatch them all the time! JesseTheReader is a channel I’ve watched for years. I’ve even met him in person at a book event lol! He’s an OG booktuber and I think his content still holds up today! He has a nice balance of chatting about both currently popular books as well as lesser known titles! He has a fun personality and a lot of original video ideas! Finally, plantbasedbride. I’m still new to her content, but it’s been so good! She gives cozy, long haul type videos and she’s been great from what I’ve watched! I hope this helps fill the need for good book creator content, lol!

[@kirantanveer6450]

Your content really helps me find good reads Lots of love from Balochistan

[@elapriore]

Laurie Colwin was also a food writer for the now defunct Gourmet magazine and other publications. She also wrote 2 memoirs about food and cooking. I was so surprised to see her book on your list, since I haven’t heard about her in so long…she died suddenly at a pretty young age sometime in the 90s. Thanks for bringing back the memory of her.

[@quilteatime]

Glad you mentioned this. I re-read Laurie Colwin's Home Cooking and More Home Cooking every few years - they are an absolute delight. Embarrassingly, I didn't know she wrote fiction!

[@hlndb]

Aw the fact you mentioned James Baldwin as one of your favourite authors made me want to comment. I'm producing a James Baldwin festival in Berlin from 6 - 8 September, to honour that James would've turned 100 this year :) Great video as always! I've only had Boulder on my radar, and now excited to hunt down the others. The way you speak about books just radiates enthusiasm ☺

[@violet.waterlily]

every book you talk about immediately gets put on my wishlist

[@aksez2u]

Jack! I was just going to look up the publishing date for "Happy All the Time", because I read that book DECADES ago, and I remember it as a very satisfying read with no big conflict, sweet and calming. I couldn't believe it was the same book, but it IS! I feel very validated in really liking a book that does not follow the traditional "conflict-resolution" pattern of most plots.

[@madiburback1547]

thanks again jack!! you are my favorite place to get book recs and just added these to my want to read list my five star books this year have been - open water by caleb azumah nelson - young mungo by douglas stuart - in memoriam by alice winn - the kite runner by khaled hosseini - funny story by emily henry - song of achilles by madeline miller

The meanest thing about Kairos is that I'm German but the English cover is so much prettier than the German one TT My favourite books of the year so far (no particular order): In Memoriam, Lonely Castle in the Mirror, Beartown, A Half-Built Garden, Young Mungo, Notes of a Crocodile and Tomorrow & Tomorrow & Tomorrow

[@kristinestocker]

Kairos is my book club's August selection. Glad to see it on your list.

Currently reading white nights per your recommendation! And I literally underlined the paragraph: "we thank some people for merely living at the same time as we do"this morning. It was just so stunningly frased. Made me think of all my wonderful, wonderful friends without whom I could simply not live! At least not in such bliss as I am currently living.

I don't have nearly enough books, but I'll get there someday. The creme de la fresh comment was hilarious.

[@sn0wflake]

My absolute favourite 5-star read from this year is Toward Eternity by Anton Hur. He's already an award-winning translator, and now his own debut novel is out and it's extraordinary. If you read the summary and think it borders too much on sci-fi for you, I encourage you to pick it up anyway-it balances on the line between literary and sci-fi so perfectly that it really extends beyond both genres. It only came out a few weeks ago, but it's not getting the attention it deserves imo. And thanks for the extra push to read White Nights and Boulder. Coming up soon on my list ✍

[@IlluminatedSilence]

I just got done reading a new book on Goodreads called The Lost Chronicles of Asauria, which is a dinosaur fantasy series. I found myself really growing attached to the old male character. I am very excited for the rest of the series to be released. I personally fell in love with each and every character that was introduced. Tia managed to give them each a very unique personality, that made them all so much more lovable. The pacing of the entire piece feels just right, nothing too slow or too fast. I had a very easy time with picturing anything that was described, the authors writing really made it easy! Would definitely recommend checking this one out.

[@SahbaMobini23]

love these recs!! my five star reads so far: everything begins and ends at the kentucky club - benjamin alire sáenz, there there - tommy orange, childhood’s end - arthur c. clarke, and wellness - nathan hill

[@aroobakhan-cj8hm]

I feel like every book you recommend is a book I end up falling in love with. Definitely adding all of these to my never ending TBR list! My ONLY 5 star book so far is "The Book of Everlasting Things" by Aanchal Malhotra. I truly loved this book and I think it's so exquisitely written and it delves into such a heart-wrenching topic (The India-Pakistan Partition). Malhotra's writing style is so beautiful and it's one of those books where I thought every line was frame-worthy.

I reread it at least once a year and a goal of mine is to read it in as many languages as possible!

[@AlinaTurner-g9k]

Dostoevsky is one of my favourite writers. I highly recommend to also read "The Gambler" and "Crime and Punishment". Both of these books are soooo good!!

[@jkn.01]

Ive read notes from underground and white nights and felt that it was a little boring cuz nothing was really happening. Do you think crime and punishment or another such book would be better?

[@AlinaTurner-g9k]

@@jkn.01 yeah, crime and punishment is so much better. but honestly, it still can get a little boring for some people, because even though there are many things happening, Dostoevsky describes emotions and thoughts which are necessary for the sake of understanding the book better. but tbh, it not once got boring for me

[@MarysMakesandMends]

My favourite read so far this year was Long Island by Colm Toibin. I was a big fan of Brooklyn for the love story, but Long Island really introduces some of the complexities of relationships and it made me think of the characters in Brooklyn in a different light.

I was and still am very scared to take a random book, read it and be affected by it's ideas/characters and feel depressed because of the plot or the ending. But the way you talk about books makes them look less scary than usual. And maybe I'll read at list one book till the end of this year..

I always anticipate videos with your favourite books. I adore the way you describe books and the feelings they evoked in you. I genuinely think you have incredible taste, so finding the books you've rated so high is incredibly refreshing and exciting, because I know that I have the chance to read a masterfully written or thought-provoking book that I might not have found otherwise. Sooo excited for these books. When you compared the writing in Evenings and Weekends to Baldwin's and Morrison's I actually gasped. What a high praise. I will definitely read Boulder soon, because that's one I've been eyeing for a long time because of you. Funnily enough, my only 5-star read of this year is Alice Winn's In Memoriam that I discovered thanks to you. Forever grateful for that recommendation, that book broke me to pieces and mended me back together. This reading year was quite mediocre for me, but I did get some 4,5 stars. I might need more of your 5 star reads to get some myself this year 😂

When I wanted to get into Dostoyevsky I didn't know where to start, so I googled which of his stories would be a good one to begin with and ended up reading white nights. Loved it from beginning to end and beyond. And now I'm kind of sad that it is not my little secret anymore but a 'booktok' book.

OMG JACK we share the same birthday !!!! I’m a bit older tho but I’m so happy to see someone cool with the same birthday as me ❤

[@lucylucielu]

I couldn't agree more with you, Jack! I was also intrigued to pick up Kairos because of its historical context. The Cold War is fascinating, and I feel most authors shy away from this gripping historical event. I am currently reading it, and I can't help but wonder: where will this book take me when it ends? It has left me reeling. In addition, I love Dostoyevsky, and I highly suggest you read, if you haven't already done so, Brothers Karamazov. It is beyond perfection. I am glad to see Dostoyevsky getting a shout-out because he's worthy of not only our attention but also our admiration and time. Great content!

It's so funny, I just reread normal people and then picked up Kairos as my next read and I was like...wait...this writing style is so similar!! I think if I hadn't gotten used to the way normal people was written I wouldn't understand what was going on. Funny that you bring that exact thing up here too on the day that I started reading Kairos. I'm now scared about the ending lol.
