Weekend Reading Update December 17, 2023

[@bjminton2698]

I stopped in the middle of your video to check out How To Be a Tudor on Libby. Historical mysteries are some of my favorite fiction and this book is fascinating! My C J Sansom reads will be so much better! Thank you!!

[@MicahCummins]

You're most welcome! I hope you really enjoy it!

[@constantineholmes]

I love British history, so I love all your books on this video.

[@MicahCummins]

I am glad you found it enjoyable!

[@rolaalmasri5857]

[@MicahCummins]

Thank you! 😊

Ruth Goodman is just wonderful, isn't she? I really ought to read this one again. Her How to be a Victorian is my favorite of hers!

[@MicahCummins]

She really is, Hannah! I love how her enthusiasm seeps through her writing, it's infectious! I am hoping to read her victorian guide maybe even next month.

[@jeffbowman1225]

The How to be a Tudor book sounds fascinating. Now I need to find it and read it. You are a very well spoked young man>

[@jeffbowman1225]

spoken. I'm sure you're not spoked.

[@MicahCummins]

Thank you very much! I hope that you can get a copy! It really is a great read.

[@isabellelutzio]

I like your enthusiasm and commentary on the books you’ve read! I have started reading again lately and am really enjoying it!

[@MicahCummins]

Thank you, Isabelle! I'm so happy to hear that you have been getting back into reading and enjoying it. That is great!

[@melissamybubbles6139]

I was just thinking about reading Ruth Goodman for Historathon next year. I've been going through my library list and picking out my piles of possibilities for the different quarters next year.

[@MicahCummins]

That would be great!

[@BookwormAdventureGirl]

Five books in a week. Very impressive! 😊💙

[@MicahCummins]

Thank you! It’s very much unusual for me, so I was happy! ☺️

[@davidnovakreadspoetry]

And that was _after_ the “slowing down” project!

[@Ursulas_Odds_and_Sods]

You had a really productive reading week! I've never been particularly familiar with British history, but I'm open to learning more.

[@MicahCummins]

Thank you! It was a wonderful week. I have been really enjoying learning more about it as well.

[@allanlealdacosta9223]

This year I was not reading so much, cuz so many things to study and work on at the same time. But I'm glad that next year I will be able to back to reading and have free time again, btw, I love ur recommendations, well done, cuz being able to finish 5 books in one week is super cool =D

[@MicahCummins]

I hope you can get the extra time for reading that you want to! Thank you for your comment!

[@allanlealdacosta9223]

@@MicahCummins you’re welcome =)

15:38 I read the Plantagenets this fall and have War ot the Roses ony reading list for '24. Micah, did you read Allison Weir's The War of the Roses? I read it several years ago. Quite good.

[@MicahCummins]

I have not, but I have it on my reading list, (hopefully for sometime early this year!) Thank you for the recommendation!

[@Jake-kn9fo]

Plantagenets and War of the Roses are two of my favourite Dan Jones books! Really want to pick up the Penguin Monarchs Queen Victoria, I’m currently going through James II at the moment !

[@MicahCummins]

That sounds fantastic! I want to pick up more of those now, I also want to get to more Dan Jones this year!

[@nataliaweissfeld7478]

Hello, Micah! Have you read Young Queens: Three Renaissance Women and the Price of Power by Leah Redmond Chang? I think you would really enjoy that book and would love to hear your thoughts on it. I love your channel and recommendations. Thank you for sharing!❤

[@MicahCummins]

Hello, Natalia! I have not read that yet, no. But I just looked it up on Goodreads and it looks fascinating! I added it to my TBR for this year!

[@BioluminescentTree]

Never watched a video of yours before but let me just say, very candidly, you are one of the absolute cutest guys I've ever seen in my entire life. Like holy hell.

[@MicahCummins]

That is very kind of you! ☺️

[@BioluminescentTree]

@@MicahCummins Just stating the sheerest truth, Micah! That smile, and your parlance too, with that slight heart melting lisp... And of course coupled with this noblest of hobbies. I'm awestruck. 🫠 Now will you pardon my directness, take it as a due symptom of honesty... Do you happen, perchance, to be of the single disposition? 🥲
