    You should do a video where you read the books that Joe from the TV show 'YOU' recommends/reads. I think it would be interesting as he is a bookworm himself.

    Happy Birthday 🎉 Jack! 25 is NBD. Oh to be 25 again. We get better with age. The 30’s were great. The 40’s are even better. Enjoy your 20’s while you can. Take this time for yourself before life “expectations” take hold and savour it!

    'Naïve. Super by Erlend Loe' is the greatest book ever about turning 25. I give it to everyone in my life when they turn 25 or feeling a bit lost. A real gem

  • @guachuleruleru
    @guachuleruleru Před 8 měsíci +43

    Jack I turned 30 this year and so far it has been great! At least for me it's been more economic security, freedom to do whatever I want and not really caring what others think because you finally figured out who you are. So enjoy your 20s and dont fear the 30s ❤

    • @cllw325
      @cllw325 Před 8 měsíci +3

      I came here to say the same thing. My early 20s especially I felt so worried about time slipping away from me, being able to do things, every birthday felt like this loss of youth. However I'm currently 30 and I fully agree, I feel so much more settled into my life and much more relaxed about everything. It feels like I woke up at 30 and suddenly realised there are really no rules to how you're supposed to live, so far it has been wonderful.

    I’ve recently read August Blue and Stay True! I thought August Blue was beautifully written, although I personally didn’t connect as strongly with the main character. Stay True is so good; it can feel a bit academic at times, but I felt very invested in the author’s life and his friendships.

  • @reverieangel
    @reverieangel Před 8 měsíci

    You should read The Hour of the Star by Clarice Lispector. Her writing is beautifully lyrical and it is exactly the kind of story that fits your reading taste. The premise is a writer writing about writing in general and telling a story about a woman who is oblivious and disconnected from society all set in Rio. There's so much social dissection and weaving through being a woman in society, especially a woman in the 70's.
    "Forgive me but I'm going to keep talking about me who am unknown to myself, and as I write I'm a bit surprised because I discover I have a destiny. Who hasn't ever wondered: am I a monster or is this what it means to be a person?"

    Your life doesn't end until you're dead, no reason to be upset about aging! It sounds so cliché, but just try and make the best of the point you are at now, and remember that you probably have a couple of decades ahead of you to achieve and do things you can't at this moment. In reality, here are only a few things in life that have a time limit of some sorts in which to do/achieve them*. So, happy belated birthday, hope you're not serious about your quarterlife crisis. If you're looking for something extra to read; yesterday I read We All Want Impossible Things by Catherine Newman, a short book about a woman who takes care of her best friend while that friend is going through the end stages of ovarian cancer. I rated it 5 stars, which might be a tad generous, but it felt pretty much perfect to me. I think you'll like it as well: it's sad and happy and beautiful, it's very quotable, it's a beautiful exploration of grief, love, friendships, relationships, humanity, and imperfections. Sounds right up your alley, if you ask me!
