Yeah…flim flam. Chin drizzle. Instead, check out Bernard Cornwell - SHARPE. Yorkshire grit. Not for the “Snowflake Club”. You’re welcome

The Evolution of Annabel Craig by Lisa Grunwald. About the famous Scopes Monkey Trial involving Clarence Darrow. Really interesting!

Phenomenal selection. I've read some and plan to read others--loved All the Light, Nightingale, and Hamnet; gotta read those last two you discussed. Thanks!

Hola guapa, que cambiarias en el mundo si pudieras

I really want to read Daisy Jones and the Six. Been listening to a lot of Fleetwood Mac recently so I'm in the zone for it!

Ok you’ve convinced me to read Hamnet and Circe!

I also love sad depressing books and also love Elin 💕💕. You should start with 28 summers!

HaHa... The first four Elin Hilderbrand you mentioned are the 4 I've read... They all got 4 or 4.5. I'd say start with Hotel Nantucket Firefly Lane was SO EMOTIONAL... Loved this book 😭 Skip the TV show, it's TRASH 👎🏽 People We Meet On Vacation is my LEAST favorite Emily Henry book... but friends to lovers ain't a favorite trope of mine

I’m hoping to read Just For The Summer soon, can’t wait!! I love Emily Henry and TJR 😍 Also love that your cat’s name is Juniper, that’s my daughter’s name, haha!

Yeah I think this is all very dependent on your tastes honestly. As someone just getting back into reading, none of these things appeal to me in the least. But thats probably because I really dislike reading romance and anything beyond very mild/subtle mentions of it in a book. If youre someone that enjoys romances then this sounds like a good way to go. I'm very into sci fi and The Three Body Problem Triology is what I read to get back into, and back into reading it brought me.

The little liar by Mitch Albom I think u will love it

Pachinko was great!

The orphan train!!!

Found your channel from my homepage and SO glad I did! I love a good book haul and you got so many! I REALLY want to read Jade City. Can't wait to continue following along on your reading journey!

Heather Morris actually has 2 other books about world war 2 the three sisters and sisters under the rising sun,Also the tattooist is being turned into a show, not sure who’s streaming it though

If you want to try out more sci-fi with a bit of Fantasy definitely give the red rising series a try 😊 it has an amazing story line with the best characters I’ve ever come across in a book

Only occasionally does a historical fiction novel transcend genre and receive the accolades reserved for great literary fiction. One that has done that, and probably my favorite HF novel is "The Year of the French" by Thomas Flanagan. It was a finalist for the National Book Award and won the NBCC (National Book Critics Circle) literary fiction award. If you're fond of beautiful, descriptive writing along with memorable characters and fine pacing this is an HF book for you.

If you want to read more fantasy, I HIGHLY recommend One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig. I was so addicted 😀

I get so excited whenever u upload a video!!

I can't remember ever reading a romance novel. However, I do read Westerns and most of them do have a little bit of romance. Especially Louis L'amour. No big story line but it is there. Lonesome Dove is probably the closest I've come to reading a romance novel. Yes, it's a Western but it has a Big romantic theme in there. Thank you -James

Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read Isaiah 34:16

I'm assuming you know that Just For the Summer is book #3 in the Part Of Your World interconnected series? There is a pretty important connection to the characters in the previous books... As a romance reader, Abby Jimenez is FANTASTIC... Part Of Your World(5.0) is my FAVORITE... Yours Truly was Fake Dating which really annoys me, but her writing is so good I still gave it 4 stars... I've also loved her other interconnected series(however, the first book, The Friend Zone(3.75) is the only Abby J. book I rated under 4 stars) I loved Happy Place... Book Lovers is still my favorite Emily Henry OK... Sorry, I typed this comment before watching the rest of your video 🤷🏻‍♂

I love reading historical fiction books these are great reccomendations.

I loved this! Welcome to booktube! I really liked the way you gave recommendations right away, definitely just gained a subscriber

Historical fiction has to be within the last 50 years. Where did that come from - quite bizarre. CJ Sansom, Bernard Cornwall, Umberto Eco …..

Girl with the Pearl Earring?

I’m so happy to see someone else loved Tom Lake. It will be a re-read for me at some point. I’ve heard the audiobook is stellar so I will have to listen to it.

The best book I read this year so far is the three body problem by Cixin Liu!

The tandem read was FANTASTICCCCC!!!!! 🤩

Totally agree on Assassin’s Blade!!! I was not attached at all reading it 3rd and sooo wish I had read it first and I feel MISLED 😩 BUT still obsessed af

I loved the audiobook for Tom Lake! Sounds like a great first quarter for you 😊 So hard to pick a top favorite for me but I think I have to go with Six of Crows/Crooked Kingdom!!

You should check out Dinah Jeffries. I have read two of her novels; The Silk Merchant's Daughter and The Tea-Planter's Wife.

to be honest the only one that I have ever read was kind of interesting and had to do with religion and the catholic church called "Pope Joan". She is suppose to have been a Pope around 12-13-or 1400. There was a section that I had a little trouble with and I had to remind myself as to that was the norm for that time period, But it might be worth a shot.

My personal pick would be Marcus Aurelius’s Meditations! Such a great book to feel grounded and appreciative of life

Congratulations on the 700 subscribers. Best wishes with your reading choices. I hope you get some great stories. I'm deep into the Count of Monte Cristo. I might be a while! Happy reading to you.

I read The Courage to be Disliked and loved it a lot. The rest are on my tbr. Maybe I'll pick them up ASAP after having watched your video. I recently read the Steal Like An Artist book series and some of what the author advocates helps, especially if we're in the business of content creation.

This is great thank you!

thank you so much! i love the way you explain in simple words the books, the tropes etc. i am not a beginner reader, but if i was one i would have loved to find this video. subscribed to the channel as well. hope you'll grow in numbers!!

Love your recommendations. I put several on my list. Don’t know if you read these but my favorite classic is The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas. Favorite epic fantasy is Name of the Wind by Patrick Ruthfus. Favorite Historical Fiction is Sarum by Edward Rutherford (history of England in novel form). And honorable mention is Don Quixote by Cervantes. Another fantasy author I enjoy is anything by T. A. White.

Thanks for the recs. I love thrillers to help me get out of my reading slump because they keep me on my toes! I requested listen for the lie from my public library and I cannot wait to get my hands on it!

I don’t know how you can possibly call Hamnet “lighter” fiction.

So many good ones here!! You showed my two favorite Emily Henry books, love her! One that I think would be a great one to help someone get into reading is a good girls guide to murder! And of course the classics, The Hunger Games and Harry Potter 😆

Aminata- slave trade.

Chiquita -a story about a woman who measured in height less than a newspaper full page.

I loved the Four Winds

Great recommendations! I read Saving Savannah by Patti Callahan Henry, The Last Lifeboat by Hazel Gaynor and The Secret Book of Flora Lea by Patti Callahan Henry last year. I loved all three!

I’m confused, have you read Kingdom of Ash yet?

I’m currently reading crown of midnight ! So excited to finish the series. ❤
