    really like this tbr planning system -- it's made me think about the books that i want to get to this summer myself!

    • @casskrug
      @casskrug  Před měsícem

      i like it because it gives me some room to read other stuff that pops onto my radar, but i still get to curate a ✨vibe✨ for the season!!

    ooo i am so impressed with how many books from your spring tbr you were able to read!! i love making those lists but i almost never actually get to them 😂
    lololol at you and claire basically just being a book club SO CUTE
    & i read ‘august blue’ but i also don’t know that i read it at the right time so i am super excited for you to read & share your thoughts!

    • @casskrug
      @casskrug  Před měsícem

      i find the seasonal lists work so much better for me than monthly because they give you more wiggle room to mood read!!
      hahaha that man was not prepared for the extent of our madness 😭
      i didn’t know you had read august blue!! i’m really curious about it since i’ve seen a lot of mixed reviews

  • @chaoscentralbooks
    @chaoscentralbooks Před měsícem +1

    i’m physically incapable of adhering to a tbr list, so i appreciate your commitment lol

    • @casskrug
      @casskrug  Před měsícem +1

      i’m actually shocked at how well this seasonal method has worked for me tbh

  • @booksthehausdown

    Oh YES! Excited to add some of these to my summer TBR!

    I can’t wait to hear your opinions on all about love!! I feel like every book by her alters me. That one specifically is helping me heal and improving my relationships with my people

    • @casskrug
      @casskrug  Před měsícem +1

    • @casskrug
      @casskrug  Před měsícem

      glad you liked it!! have you read any of her other fiction?

  • @chaoscentralbooks
    @chaoscentralbooks Před měsícem

    i will literally start all about love this week 🫡

    • @casskrug
      @casskrug  Před měsícem +1

      lmaooo i am gonna hold off a little bit for this one so no pressure!!

  • @TheBarandtheBookcase

    Patiently waiting for you to get rocked by Motherhood 🙇‍♂️ loved this!!! So many good books lined up, excited to see what you make of these!

    • @casskrug
      @casskrug  Před měsícem

      omg jaylen i keep going back and forth on whether i should prioritize motherhood instead…. i think it would fit in so well with my recent reads but i don’t wanna burn myself out on the motherhood stuff!!

  • @chaoscentralbooks
    @chaoscentralbooks Před měsícem

    I STARTED THE MATERIAL YESTERDAY AND I AM BOTH LIVING AND LOVING

    • @casskrug

    I read that Sheila Heti recently and found it….interesting? I like better when Heti is doing something non-linear, so far! I wonder if I’d like a piece of fiction by DeborahLevy. I’ve only read her autobiography series. The Marion Milner sounds right up my alley! I LOVED the Suzanne Scanlon!

    • @casskrug
      @casskrug  Před měsícem

      i’m curious to see how i get on with heti!! i recommend hot milk for a levy nonfiction. i was watching the videos where you talked about committed earlier this morning, i think it might be what i pick up next!!

  • @katsfieldnotes
    @katsfieldnotes Před měsícem

    Ok How Should A Person Be I was soooooo excited to read and got sooo scared with what people were saying with it! So I will be tuned IN for your thoughts. And Committed sounds so good!

    • @casskrug
      @casskrug  Před měsícem

      i’m hoping how should a person be will be a great experience!! i’ve been a bit skeptical when it comes to heti but i’m determined to read more of her after loving alphabetical diaries!!

  • @SavidgeReads
    @SavidgeReads Před měsícem

    Headed this way after Ben mentioned you and am so pleased I did. Loved the opener grappling with the books. I am seeing The Material everywhere at the moment, looking forward to what people think, our cover is nowhere near as good here. I want to read August Blue in August, I mean it's only right... right?

    • @casskrug
      @casskrug  Před měsícem

      ahhh thank you for stopping by!! that other red cover for the material is… interesting hahaha. that’s my plan with august blue as well, if i can wait that long to pick it up!!

  • @lukehillier4343
    @lukehillier4343 Před měsícem

    1. The Material sounds so good!
    2. I'm planning on reading Molly Brodak's memoir, "Bandit," soon and probably "Molly" after that. Curious to hear your thoughts!
    3. I picked up How Should a Person Be recently -- a little nervous bc of how people talk about it but Pure Colour was my favorite novel of 2023 and I wanted to read another from her.

    • @casskrug
      @casskrug  Před měsícem

      oh i’ll definitely have to check out molly brodak’s memoir as well!! hope you get along with how should a person be!!

    If you need a recap of My Brilliant Friend.. I watched the HBO adaptation immediately after reading the book and felt that it was really faithful to the novel!

    • @casskrug
      @casskrug  Před měsícem

      omg i always forget that the show exists… i will have to check it out!!

  • @MicahRion

    I feel like Sudjic's Exposure would pair up nicely with Scanion's Committed.

    • @bibliosophie
      @bibliosophie Před měsícem +1

      thanks for reminding me that i want to pick that sudjic up!
