any plans to review fellow youtuber Xiran Jay Zhao first book Iron Widow? if you havent seen her channel she mostly talks about wester media depictions of asian cultures (mostly chinese as thats where she is from) but she recently annnounced she wrote a book loosly based in part on the first female emporor of china (and a little bit Darling in Fraxx cause liek most people she HATED how that series ended)

As a Christian myself, I apologize about the aggressiveness in people trying to covert. I don’t believe that is right, people should discover themselves. Love the channel man.

Lol same. Instead of sharing why they believe they send a) random books or b) threats of damnation then shocked pikachu face

[@aidans1383]

Yeah I agree but there’s always gonna be those holier than thou Christians I’ve grown up with more than a few going to catholic school

[@myrojyn]

@@thatotherted3555 ya...I kinda want that one tbh

[@darthnyith]

I'm assuming you're talking about the emails as being aggressive. I don't think sending someone a book you enjoyed is overly aggressive even if its Christian themed. Id see those who sent him books as those who cared enough to send him something as a good thing.

[@thomaskittock2866]

I mean as a Christian I'd also remind you of the Great Commission, which is a commandment to spread the gospel... But there is an appropriate way to go about it. I think sending a book or an email is pretty harmless all things considered. If it were in-person or continual online harrassment from the same person, then I'd say they should chill.

[@cirthador1453]

Him stabbing the Funkopop is weirdly therapeutic. And scary. Very scary. Terrifying even.

[@DragonFan12345x]

A yes, battle angel Attila the Hun my favorite scifi historical manga.

[@zoeywhite2343]

Not going to lie I kind of like seeing some self-promo stuff, although I do understand why it can be boring/annoying for people especially when there's a lot of it. I don't know, to me seeing fans of this channel send you copies of their finished novels is weirdly inspiring.

[@bibliophilecb]

Same, I love seeing the self promo!

[@ambale455]

Yeah! Like i am an aspiring writer and i genuinely want to send my book to Daniel. I'd be ok if he didn't show it on camera or reviewed, but I love his channel and without him knowing it he was a part of my writing journey and I just want to share that. But i can totally see how it can come off as "just another author trying to get a big KZbinr to review their book and do some unsolicited promo". Which is why if he has the restrictions of not showing or reviewing self promo books on camera, I'll understand, but it's better than just not being able to send it to him

[@austenhead5303]

I just now got the idea (when he said no more self-promo) that there should be a booktuber with a channel or at least a segment devoted solely to unknown, unconnected self-published writers. Searching the haystack for that one gem of a needle, if you will, and giving criticism as you go. It'd be interesting. It would need to be someone who knows a fair bit about literature, and who has the balls to tell people things like "your prose stinks, no one would voluntarily read past the first sentence" and "okay, I'm on page three, and the prose is beautiful, but I'm bored out of my head because you've given me nothing to care about" and so on. Just start reading, stop as soon as you identify the first reason this book isn't passing muster and tell us about it. Maybe start each segment with a pile of books that were discarded right away, and then do a couple which managed to last for a couple chapters, and finish the segment with one that got read in its entirety, and a review of that one.

Described as "Inception in a Polynesian fantasy setting," Dreams of the Dying is a slow-burning, haunting blend of fantasy, mystery, and psychological horror, that explores mental illness, morality, and the dark corners of our minds Thanks to whoever got that for Daniel, now I have a new book to look into :)

[@jonathanturgeon7469]

The book, is pretty decent TBH

[@missarchaeologist]

I just finished it yesterday, and bloody hell - all pun intended - was it good. However, there are some scenes which could possibly be rather triggering to some, i.e. suicide.

[@LIGHTR34P3R]

I loved the book I know he will probably never read it due to his insane tbr but it would make my day to see a review

[@Screwball-D2]

The book is based on the RPG "Enderal: Forgotten Stories", It's an entirely new game made in Skyrim's Engine, available for free on steam. It's one of the better RPG's I've played, with really exceptional characters. If you have any interest in checking out the book, I would highly suggest checking out the game itself, seriously, I recommend it to everyone, it's phenomenal.

[@kvothethearcane146]

Imo, it's a really good book that was a 5/5 read for me. Fantastic all around.

Much prefer the spanking to the throwing on the floor. Glad you finally remembered to do it.

[@sonipitts]

I am currently reading Black Tongued Thief and it is awesome! Chock full of Ye Olde Fantasy Themes, Tropes, and Vibes, non-stop swashbuckling adventure, and some of the more nicely-handled and fully-formed world-building I've had the pleasure to enjoy, all narrated by a snarky, morally gray yet refreshingly self-aware and chill main character that I would 100% pull out all the "you're cool, can we hang out" benign-but-insistent stalker stops if I met in IRL. By the end of the first few chapter I was well and truly hooked for the full series long haul. Perdido Street Station is also one of my all time faves. So weird, yet so richly layered and compelling.

[@sebastianwesterlund8777]

I too am extraordinarily early

[@mydumbopinion3965]

Watching Daniel open packages full of books while opening my own Amazon package filled with books 😎 🌈 Timing 🌈

[@Oracle_]

The Traitor Baru Cormorant is one of the best books I've ever read! I had an existential crisis for about 3 days after finishing it and I cried so much while reading the book, I recommend it so much!

[@sonipitts]

It was pretty fantastic. It's weird when a book actually manages to make the ins and outs of logistics and civil banking/finance work interesting.

[@senorbe]

Yes, and the series gets better. As it goes on, what you thought was happening in Traitor becomes less clear and more moving. Unfortunately, it looks like it might be while before the series is finished.
