Imagine getting 1/3 of the way through a YA romance novel waiting in anticipation and trying to predict when it will finally get dark, gritty and plague riddled. Growing attached to certain characters and expecting them to either die or grit up. Omg lol.
My friend once recommended me a mystery comic but she sent two links one after another, one with an angsty dark vampire theme and the other was just a show biz romance. I read the romance constantly trying to sus out who was the vampire that was gonna eat everyone like aaaah, it’s THE HANDSOME MANAGER ISNT IT, HES ALWAYS SO QUIET. Halfway through I was like there’s no damn vampires man. They’re just normal humans.
I remember this one post that went around a couple years back where the guy went in to watch Godzilla and there was like an hour of japanese drama going on he thought that this is the saddest story ever and that it'll get even sadder when Godzilla finally arrives. Turns out he entered the wrong cinema.
And this is why it’s so crucial to include the author in book recommendations. I learned this the hard way when I wished for a Warhammer book as a kid and got a book by the same name about Astrology. My parents were also confused about the request, now we just laugh about it
@@JackPorter I wanna know how that Uncle didn't question it.. like.. if I *thought* my nephew wanted *that* book I would press a bit or ask the parents so I don't mess up
@@JackPorter Hah, Warhammer already sorta has this confusion. One of my favorite obscure lore/fluff books is "Blood on the Reik: A Journey through the Old World". When people see it at my place there's often a moment of confusion or their brain rebooting because "Blood on the Reik" conjures up something else entirely (even though it's a different spelling).
It's also good to double check if you think you've found something from an author you like. Found a book once that was decidedly not by the author I was looking for and very much not something I would be interested with. Can't remember the author name off the top of my head but I think it was Robin something.
@@treqrs I have unintentionally done this before. I recommended a book to three goth/wiccan friends, because they love vampires. But it had been so long since I had last read it, and it was just so good of a story, that I completely forgot how absolutely lewd it was. It was only when I was reading the story out loud to a goth friend, that I was reminded of the smut, lol. EDIT: Also, I am a dude, and they are all chicks. Two in relationships. They never mentioned the adult scenes when we talked about the book, though. So I think I'm in the clear.
In fairness, Tom described the book being set in the Dark Ages, and based on the description on Goodreads, it's definitely not. 1348 is High Medieval. The book Ben got is actually set in the Dark Ages post Roman, so he was following the instructions given to him correctly.
I agree with you, however Dark Ages has been used and sometimes is used to refer to the entire Middle Ages. Personally I find that far too broad a usage but it is technically legitimate use.
@LordVader1094 The middle ages were also not used at the time, because it's a term made up to describe a historical period centuries after it was over.
@@LordVader1094during the time of the enlightenment, once the people of the then present called it such, they named the time period from the fall of the Roman Empire, till basically their "now" the Dark Ages Generally post humerously this was then simplified to 500-1500 and we renamed it the middle ages, to be a bit more objective

"So Tom, I watched through that 'Lemon Party' video you recommended so highly and I have to say there really didn't seem to be the same focus on citrus that you described..."
My friend told me once to read the book, "Feed". I did so. A full five minutes into our discussion on whether I liked it or not-I didn't, it was a creepy, depressing and fairly cliche look at a bleak sci fi future where having a ever ready drip of internet in our heads fucks us up- I mentioned how the meat maze (a maze constructed from lab grown meat) kinda skeeved me out. My buddy, desperately trying to figure out if they'd missed something that could be construed as a meat maze in her zombie sci fi book: meat maze??? Me: yeah, the meat maze Her: like, the crush of bodies in the convention scene Me: no. Like the maze of biochemically engineered meat with eyes and cow horns sticking out if it. Why did you make me read this book. Careful with your recs, folks.
This makes me wanna run a book discussion group where everyone gets told the title of the book, but they're all secretly given a different author name, so they all show up to discuss having read different books.

@@DeathnoteBB "Between two fires is an idiom that means being attacked from two sources or sides simultaneously. It can also mean being caught between two sources of conflict. The phrase is often used to describe a difficult situation where one is forced to choose between two undesirable options."
As a kid I remember making up a story that I lied about reading in a book to my friend, and he got so intrigued he wanted to read it so I nervously googled the premise and found the closest thing to it and told him the name of the book I found. He later told me he enjoyed the book lol.
This happens all the time with movies. But usually, they are very different. The best/worst example of this for movies is 'Frozen'. There is the disney movie that brought 'Let it go' to the world and it played endlessly at the time. Then there is another movie, also called 'Frozen', which was released first, but this movie is about three people getting stuck in a ski lift late at night. And have to survive in the freezing cold until the next day. One is a family comedy/musical the other is a horror.
This happened to me with the movie Elephant, which is a british film featuring disjointed scenes of men walking into view and shooting someone and then walking away. I was trying to find the American film Elephant which was loosely based off of the Columbine massacre and was about the children's lives and extracurricular activities prior to the shooting. I think it wasn't until I noticed they were playing soccer that I realized that the movie I was watching wasn't the american one, lol Also my favorite example is Jack Frost (1997), the beloved horror film about a serial killer who gets hit by a truck filled with... acid? Or something? idk. And then is scooped up into an evil snowman the next day -- not to be confused with the box office bomb of a children's movie that came out the next year about a guy who also gets hit by a car and turned into a snowman except no one liked this movie.
I'm pretty sure there are two movies called Jack Frost that were released around the same time. One is a family-friendly movie about a snowman, while the other is a horror movie about a killer snowman. I feel sorry for the kid who watches the latter since it apparently has a r*** scene in it.
in my book suggestions list I write it as " [book name] [author name]" or vice versa with no separation between them. its always fun to find out where the book title ends and the author name begins when I google them
"Between Two Fires" has also been used for: Joshua Yaffa's 2021 book about Putin's Russia; Joyce Hansen's 1993 book about US black Civil War soldiers; a book about Palestinian Christians; a book about Native Americans and the US Civil War; several memoirs including Laura Esquivel's; basically it's just such a good metaphor it gets re-used a lot.
So does Ben finish his book? If I'm a third of the way into a book, I'm finishing it regardless of how much I'm enjoying it. Same with videogames, I'm sunk cost fallacy to the max.
I recently had a similar experience. There's a graphic novel called "Humanity Lost" about humanity being forcibly evolved into monsterous creatures; I bought what I thought was the novel version, nope, it was a completely different novella also called "Humanity Lost" about people being stranded in space. I was only looking at the price and didn't even realize the book was only 60 pages.
Also Demonslayer, which is a Russian comic about a guy who slays demons, not to be confused with Demon Slayer, which is a Japanese comic about a guy who slays demons 😅
In Austria (and generally in the whole of the EU I believe) we have this lovely thing called title protection, which is part of copyright law. It basically saves us from these exact situations. Different books/movies/plays etc aren't allowed to have the same name. As an author you can buy it before publication & I think it might even be automatic once the book is published, but I'm not sure on that last part. This law is the reason why the Disney movie Moana was localized into Vaiana here, because there already was an existing Italian movie called Moana.
@@flowerdolphin5648 I disagree with that. If an author wants to name their book a certain way they should be allowed to name it regardless if it was already in use
@@sacrificiallamb4568 That'll work until a point. There have been books published by different authors with the same names. But it's so rare atm; however given time there will be such a backlog of books; there is bound to be a point in time where it'll be more common. But we're not there yet and It'll probably be centuries until it's a big problem so; a worthwhile method for now!
I did this exact same thing in college. We were assigned to read a book by a specific author. I found a book by the same name, with the same author name, and even on the same general subject, but it was a fiction in the historical setting instead of a series of documented observations of that historical period. Turns out the *middle initial* of the two authors was different. Thankfully my professor thought it was hilarious and didn't call on me that day.

To answer Ben's question, both books are on audible actually. Also, there is a third book called "Between Two Fires" on audible, although that one is a nonfiction book about Russia.
Me reading Between Two Fires: Truth, Ambition, and Compromise in Putin's Russia which paints a nuanced picture of life in Putin's Russia, revealing a society marked by complexity and contradiction: Hmm interesting, I wonder when it's going to get dark...?
The exact same thing happened to me with The Darkness i remembered that my brother played the game some how I asked him about it when I finished it I was so confused when it was nothing like what he described it turns out he played darkness 2 and I got darkness 1
Reminds me of that post about this dude watching a japanese drama on a flight thinking it was a different movie the whole time thinking "Man this is so sad... and they're going to have to deal with Godzilla soon!"
I did this once, but I was looking for the Star Trek Deep Space Nine book “A Stitch in Time,” a book about the life of a alien lizard man who was trained as a black-op spy in his facist state before becoming a tailor. I ended up reading a book about a Christian embroiderer.
Someone else said this did happen to them when their parents bought them a book about astrology that happened to have the same name as a Warhammer book he wanted!
Hilarious to imagine a couple teen girls having the same conversation in reverse. "So I'm half way through the book you recommended 'Between Two Fires?" "Uh-hu." "We'll, when does the princess get introduced? Is after Sir Aethlred is drawn and quartered?" "What?" "Yeah, he's to be cut into forths and scatered across the country." "That didn't happen." "Oh, so he escapes?" "I think you got the wrong book."
This mistake implies some woman was suggested a romance book, and ended up learning about the horrors of the black death.

@@DeathnoteBB Its a Danish bestiality pron film from the 1970s (bestiality was legal in Denmark until 2015). It was smuggled into Britain and became underground famous
@@Spacemongerr How tf did they manage to find that version over Orwell
@@DeathnoteBB My guess is that they are joking
I lost it at ‘Some princess has to marry-‘
don't know these guys but this is very funny
Just looked it up and it's absolutely on audible. It's also the first result.
I love CZcams for showing me random funny moments this reminds me of og CZcams, so funny 😂
So who does the princess marry?
I've had this happen to me a couple of times. It's actually been when trying to find a book I've already read :D
To answer Ben's question, both books are on audible actually. Also, there is a third book called "Between Two Fires" on audible, although that one is a nonfiction book about Russia.
thats why i always include the author in my recommendations. lowers the chance for errrors down to very unlikely
Oh dear, this is hilarious 😂
Dude got GOT by the algorithm.
Between two "Between two fires"
So glad people are finding Between Two Fires, i chose that to get back into reading and it's a great book
I started watching the tv series that book was based off of, but so far its just been Zach Galifianakis insulting his celebrity interviews.
Me reading Between Two Fires: Truth, Ambition, and Compromise in Putin's Russia which paints a nuanced picture of life in Putin's Russia, revealing a society marked by complexity and contradiction: Hmm interesting, I wonder when it's going to get dark...?
this is exactly why trademarks exist
The exact same thing happened to me with The Darkness i remembered that my brother played the game some how I asked him about it when I finished it I was so confused when it was nothing like what he described it turns out he played darkness 2 and I got darkness 1
Between Two “Between Two Fires”
This is why books should get recommended by title an author lol
Now you both have to read both books
Reminds me of that post about this dude watching a japanese drama on a flight thinking it was a different movie the whole time thinking "Man this is so sad... and they're going to have to deal with Godzilla soon!"
they'd enjoy the warwolf. that's a heck of a read.
Oh Ben!
it reminds me of that tweet about someone watching a sad japanese movie thinking they would have to deal with Godzilla at some point
Just finished the book a week a two ago, and it was good.
I won't tell you which one.
I did this once, but I was looking for the Star Trek Deep Space Nine book “A Stitch in Time,” a book about the life of a alien lizard man who was trained as a black-op spy in his facist state before becoming a tailor. I ended up reading a book about a Christian embroiderer.
It is on audible, at least here in America
Now you both need to review both books.
Tom's Between two fires was a brutal read. It's like berserk
Sounds like Ben has another book to read
It also sounds like Tom has another book to read
that's why the author is so important when recommending books lol
Can anyone link were Tom originally recommends this book?
Video title : Between Two Books
!Ben
Imagine if this happened with Biack Library books.
Someone else said this did happen to them when their parents bought them a book about astrology that happened to have the same name as a Warhammer book he wanted!
Hilarious to imagine a couple teen girls having the same conversation in reverse.
"So I'm half way through the book you recommended 'Between Two Fires?"
"Uh-hu."
"We'll, when does the princess get introduced? Is after Sir Aethlred is drawn and quartered?"
"What?"
"Yeah, he's to be cut into forths and scatered across the country."
"That didn't happen."
"Oh, so he escapes?"
"I think you got the wrong book."
"Now I've seen the cover...". Maybe just check if it's the same author...?
This is why I just send a direct link these days if i reccomend a book, movie or game to anyone
oh my god I thought this was Simon and Lewis
thats why you also look up the author
I mean.... Is the romance one good???
This is why author name is important when recommending. XD
