Video

17:28 "humor is subjective. people might not find me funny, that's fine. I am, no matter what you say, naturally, okay." made me burst out laughing, as did "That's a lie, I just lied like that post worker did". also yes Bahni Turpin is top-tier audiobook narration!!! Been listening to The Legacy of Orisha and she is phenomenal.

‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ That’s so BS about the PO Box situation sorry you had to go though that

😂😂😂 I literally just finished reading Olive Grove in Ends just before I clicked on this video! It drags a bit in the middle with a lot of religious redundancy. 3/5

Not you getting us together about minding the business you gave us 😂😂😂😂😂😂

No they didn’t ask you to repurchase and get refunded for something THEY LOSS! 😅🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 “b*tch I don’t have a green jersey” 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

You are not alone, I’ll have two chapters left and I’ll go start another book 😂 also I have Vladimir but I have yet to read it. I think the cover just caught my eye at the time lol

I bought a smaller shelf for my physical tbr and that has helped me see how many books I have and it’s only two shelves so I can’t buy too much 🫰🏽

Sing unburied sing I loved but loved Salvage The Bones even more . Blahdiggityblah I’ve over commented 📕🪱💚

Read Unsettled in January i think and I can relate to your take . I really liked the chapters from the grandma and kinda wanted that to be the whole book 📕🪱💚

Read Shark Heart about a month ago and though i dislike romance , I don’t mind love stories and the book taught me that. It won’t be a top read , but I did enjoy it . 📕🪱💚

Love your channel, Love your energy, and love how you have me laughing… You are huhlarious! Love love 💚💚💚🫡 oh, imma check out the Prince of Monkeys. thnks for the rec… 😉📚

You are brave enough to do t. I should do it but I probably got like 1000 books or something. It would take some time.🤭

😂😂😂. I wish I could get some your DNFs. You have some bangers!

As a “senior citizen”, I am a die-hard DNFer. I don’t have enough time to waste on a book that doesn’t resonate with me. Glad to hear your stance on the matter!

Bit*h I don’t have a green Jersey 😂😂

Lmao you discussing buying multiple copies of homegoing was hilarious 😂

Lol the intro made me laugh for some reason. I loved the video. Glad I found your channel. “I just lied just like that post office worker did” cleared me 😂😂😂😂

I love a fellow DNF advocate. I have too many books to read to care about books I don't like. I followed you first on TikTok, and I have to say I absolutely love and prefer the longer content you do here on CZcams. You're my number one source for literary fiction book recs.

I have two sets of bookshelves. The big one is my unreads and the little one is my reads. I get rid of most books after I read them so it’s not like I haven’t read many books, but I could go a year at my current reading pace without running out of things to read.

That’s a hell of a way to start a book off 😂

“That’s a lie, I just lied just like that post worker did” HAHAHAHA

Seeing Chuck Tingle’s “Bury Your Gays” on your shelf reminds me that whenever I need a laugh, I go to his Wikipedia page and look at his list of “Selected works.” I can’t repeat the titles of most of his books on here but they’re hilarious.🤣

Identifying strongly as my TBR, shelf a after shelf, is out of control.

What is title of the book about the dancer who becomes a Rockette?

You kept it real about the damn pizza parties lmao. I can buy pizza with my check.

“They hitchhike? Girl…” 😂😂😂

Yas, Razorblade Tears was God tier. Where the movie at???

So glad I found your channel I love your personality. I'll be adding quite a few of theses to my TBR.

You're lying, you're a liar who lies! 😅

You're lying, you're a liar who lies! 😅

Brandy and Full Moon was my jam when I was stationed overseas. I still have that CD, I may have to pull that junt back out.

Your channel showed up in my feed and I am excited about your book recommendations.

I DNF'd 7 books in a row the other day. Normally I would pick up a random book that appealed to me off the shelves and that'll get me out of a slump but this time I had a specific reading goal to accomplish (long books over 450 pages) so my pool of options was much smaller. I ended up picking up a book I didn't remember at all and it had such a strong first chapter it pulled me right out of my slump. It's dragging a bit now and I don't see it getting higher than a 4 but I'm still going strong. I found your channel somewhere between the 2nd and 6th DNF and your videos soothed my frustration

Commentary and singing is always on point 😆 I’m picking one of Wanda’s books up in September.

Dezmond you got to stop MIA us we need our laugh ok. But for real I miss you when you don't post I understand that you are busy like we all are. It's good to see you when you do post. ❤❤

“Creeping, crawling a** book” is about to be my new line when I DNF a slow af book 😭😭😭😭 I enjoyed Margo’s Got Money Troubles more than I expected. My review was similar. There was a bit of a lull in the middle of this one but overall I gave it a 3.5!

I would love some readings vlogs from you 😊😊😊

😂😂😂 “I don’t want no creepy crawly ssa book” I laugh through everyone of your vids 😂😂😂

Hi Dezmond, I love your fun personality, & thanks for the great book recommendations.

This was a great idea. The first book you spoke about , with Issa in the bed, I tried to see it as well when watching it. I couldn't see it either . Lol "Molly would have been wopped."

Dezmond, do you think you could either do CZcams chapters or list the books you talk about in the description? Otherwise I need to make sure I have pen and paper handy to write the names of these books. 'cause you know you have me wanting to read them 😊

❤❤❤

i love a multi generational drama...❤

😊❤😊 love me some Desmond zee............😊😊😊😂

I found How Not To Drown In A Glass of Water at the library and immediately grabbed it. I can’t wait to start it 😊 also when you started singing Back To Life I just finished listening to it lmao

I already wanted half the books in your last recommendation video, now youre adding more?? 😭😂💕

Here comes algorithm food. 🥳

Currently reading Grown Women❤ yesss I love family drama tooo

♥️♥️

My TBR is growing!! ☺
