the fact I haven’t heard of most of these books makes me weirdly happy, reminds me that there is an unlimited supply of good books to read edit- hi! I have a international book review series planned soon if you guys are interested
The spine of you copy of My Dark Vanessa looks like a book I have called 3 Bags Full which I love but it’s very niche and my jaw dropped but I misread 😢
I’m dying for more people to read Severance. Ling Ma paints such an accurate and humanistic portrayal of how a pandemic unfolds that it felt somewhat cathartic to read it during this “post” pandemic time.
In like April 2020 I felt the ending was underwhelming and your comment made me realize that it hits different at this stage of the pandemic. (keeping it vague so as not to spoil anyone lol)
I also loved Severance. I just bought Ling Ma's new book, Bliss Montage. My other favorites from this trolley are Wise Blood and Their Eyes We're Watching God.
I would love to see a video about Korean literature since I'm seeing Violets, Concerning My Daughter, The Disaster Tourist and The Age of Doubt in the book stacks 👀👀👀
I've read both Beach Read and People We Meet On Vacation and I've loved both, although Beach Read is my favorite. Is Book Lovers bad? I've been looking forward to it :(
I really appreciate you reading out all the book titles at the end, for future reference purposes. I hope you finish all the ones you’ve started and enjoy the process along the way. This is the niche book content I love.
Beach read is my favorite Emily Henry!! I liked it a lot more than people we meet on vacation and book lovers. Generally I just loved the characters, dialogue and plot a lot more than the other two. Don't let book lovers scare you away from the best stuff!!
I would love this! Especially with a focus on fantasy that isn't western centric. Build you house around your body and the cat who saved books and black water sister to name a few
LOVED “Their Eyes where Watching God”. We read it in my AP lit class as the second half of the story takes place near my hometown (like some 20 minutes away), and my town was mentioned by name like once. Goes into some of the history in this area that pretty much everyone surrounding the Lake is familiar with.
Just read Carmilla and thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a really nice atmospheric book. It's an easy read and once the story starts resolving it isn't really an "Oh? OH!" moment but still very enjoyable!
Love Hypothesis: REALLY not worth all the hype. It started as a fanfiction, I know. Because you noticed. Very much. And for some disturbing reason, I had Snape and Hermoine in my head the whole time reading it. Like, seriously. It fits. If we were villains: INSANELY good😍 Camilla: I love this type of literature, so I really enjoyed reading this book.
I know right! I believe it was supposed to be in his translated fiction video. I am so curious what he will think about it! I thought it was so horribly good. I read it in dutch as well but i have heard that the translation is supposed to be very good!
Reading Gods must be really pleased with us. All these back to back videos from Jack are doing wonders for my depression. Haven't felt this good in months.
your pain is universal, i decided to mood read for the time being and its working out for me, i had to take a break from trolleys, tr and plans lol. Been enjoying your vids, keep up the good work.
Brick lane deserves so much more love. It's such a beautiful book, with a perspective I don't feel like is seen in many books. The voice of the ones usually silenced.
You should take a look at "As Long As the Lemon Trees Grow" by Zoulfa Katouh! It's a book set in syria written by a syrian-canadian author, and the US edition came out yesterday (UK edition releases tomorrow). I had the pleasure of reading an early version of the book and it is absolutely breathtaking, and I think it would be right up your alley
What a nice way to sort your TBR, I do mine by months and I just put the left-over books to the side because I know I won't get to them till next year.
Yolk's a great book. It was one of my favorites of 2021, hope you get soon to the second shelf so you can read it. I believe it could be a very good video review, there's so much to analyze on it.
When you get around to Violets I recommend you read the afterword first - provides a lot of context for the novel and I immediately felt like I needed to read it again with a clearer understanding of the intention!
*me sitting down with a plate of food ready to watch some YT but not knowing what and then I see this video* okayyy Jack let's go, what books have we got on the menu today
i had trouble getting into book lovers at first (it's also my first emily henry read!) but once i made it through the first half i started to really enjoy it!
Detransition, Baby is so good. Its fast become one of my all-time favourites. I hesitate to recommend it coz i feel like you gotta know what you’re getting into but it is a really good book and i love it (Got excited coz I’ve actually read that one lol)
The thing is when I do something like this, I get a new book which I want to read even more and bump it up to the top and so some books just go further and further down. I am a good bit older than you so have had some books on the bottom shelf forever!
Their eyes were watching God was a book we had to read in English class in high school. One of my favorites till this day. Even the movie (starring Halle berry) was really good. I hope you enjoy it!
Video ideas: write a chapter after a finished book (book has 10 chapters and you write chapter 11, or just 2 pages);;; read only the first and last chapter of a book
I am all about having a cart for books you want to get to. I mean I want a cart like that. However to separate them by when you want to read them is good for you; but I can not separate them like that. They would make the cart and that’s about it. Lol. If it’s on my cart, it’s a book I want to read. Hope it works for you!!
Heres and idea, load the from The bottom first? So that the weight is low and it doesnt topple over? Although u buy and get sent so many books that I reckon ull fill the trolley in no time
you should try sea of tranquility, amazing writing style, reads kind of like a short story collection. I know you could classify it as sci-fi buuut it’s a bit like the hitchhikers guide kind of sci-fi. Also you don’t really feel that some parts are set 200 years in the future where a author is describing her time in (yet another) lockdown. It has so many layers, foreshadowing and wholesome characters as well as unlikeable ones. I would say it’s contemp fic but takes places in the cours of 500 years (20th to 25th century) :)
The amount of recommendations I always get from Jack's videos is insane, and I would like to know just how much money all these books approximately costed.
İ haven’t read “Book Lovers” yet, but İ can tell you that “Beach Read” was actually really good! And İ don’t really like romances😅 İ am currently reading “You and me on vacation” by Emily Henry and this one is not really keeping up with Beach Read to me 🫠
I‘ve had We Have Always Lived in the Castle on my tbr ever since they announced Sebastian Stan for the movie but then I ended up watching the movie first and now the book is just sitting there 💀 I swear I’ll get to it at some point
just an encouragement to read it because i've seen the movie and read the book and it's like, not a very good adaptation, even though it's fine by itself. the book is great and so vividly written !!
Can we all agree that a wonky trolley is so much more suited to jack
it's perfectly imperfect
as jack is
At this point I spend more time watching booktube than actually reading books… and I’m not sure how I feel about that
I'm doing the same at the moment...
Absolute same! There's so many great booktubers on here!
🤣
Aint that the truth
same
It’s like I want Jack to go: “Anything off the trolley, dears?”
“We’ll take the lot!” applies in both cases. 😂
hahah
Yes! Just yes!
He did this in his last book trolley video
I swear I see you on every video that I watch.
love that harry potter reference lol
the fact I haven’t heard of most of these books makes me weirdly happy, reminds me that there is an unlimited supply of good books to read
edit- hi! I have a international book review series planned soon if you guys are interested
The fact that I'm never gonna read every book I know makes me anxious 😂😂 two very different points of view
lmao edited to include self promotion
@@douloureux. gotta get the word out somehow haha
I tried to keep it at the end so you don’t see it unless you click read more
@@hannahdigitals or just make good vids that get picked up by the algorithm
The spine of you copy of My Dark Vanessa looks like a book I have called 3 Bags Full which I love but it’s very niche and my jaw dropped but I misread 😢
I'm kinda feeling sad for those two books that were left behind Jack😆
One of them is a manipulative ‚self help‘ book, so don‘t feel bad about that one lol (it‘s called ‘Power’)
@@nightnight3676 its not called power, its the 48 lawas of power
I was on the edge of my seat to see if he notices them! What a plothole!
“Upstairs, we’re thinking. Downstairs, we’re dancing” - A cool T-Shirt Idea.
I’m dying for more people to read Severance. Ling Ma paints such an accurate and humanistic portrayal of how a pandemic unfolds that it felt somewhat cathartic to read it during this “post” pandemic time.
That’s really cool to hear! It’s on my bookshelf, but I haven’t read it yet 🫢
In like April 2020 I felt the ending was underwhelming and your comment made me realize that it hits different at this stage of the pandemic. (keeping it vague so as not to spoil anyone lol)
I also loved Severance. I just bought Ling Ma's new book, Bliss Montage. My other favorites from this trolley are Wise Blood and Their Eyes We're Watching God.
Really powerful story, I read it last year and it was gripping
The amount of books that looked like they fit so well in the three shelves is so damn satisfying 🙌🏻
I’m jealous that you can fit your entire TBR onto a cart 😭
I would love to see a video about Korean literature since I'm seeing Violets, Concerning My Daughter, The Disaster Tourist and The Age of Doubt in the book stacks 👀👀👀
Beach Read is so much better than Book Lovers. I usually don't read romance but Beach Read has become one of my favourite books ever.
Exactly !!!!!!! JACK NEEDS TO READ BEACH READ INSTEAD OF BOOK LOVERS
I'm reading Books Lovers right now and it's fine. Just fine.
I've read both Beach Read and People We Meet On Vacation and I've loved both, although Beach Read is my favorite. Is Book Lovers bad? I've been looking forward to it :(
@@palcicaa no it isnt bad its just not as good as Beach Read but it’s good only
I’m wanting to read beach read so badly but I cannot find a copy anywhere :((
I really appreciate you reading out all the book titles at the end, for future reference purposes. I hope you finish all the ones you’ve started and enjoy the process along the way. This is the niche book content I love.
Beach read is my favorite Emily Henry!! I liked it a lot more than people we meet on vacation and book lovers. Generally I just loved the characters, dialogue and plot a lot more than the other two. Don't let book lovers scare you away from the best stuff!!
Jack can you please, pleaseeeeee, do a “I try fantasy books”
This is definitely all a ploy to get you to read the Six of Crows duology.
fr i need him to read six of crows
hahah
I would still like to see him do this though.
omg YES
I would love this! Especially with a focus on fantasy that isn't western centric. Build you house around your body and the cat who saved books and black water sister to name a few
dont make him suffer on purpose😂😂
LOVED “Their Eyes where Watching God”. We read it in my AP lit class as the second half of the story takes place near my hometown (like some 20 minutes away), and my town was mentioned by name like once. Goes into some of the history in this area that pretty much everyone surrounding the Lake is familiar with.
i’d really love to see you read literature by Arab authors. Books like A Woman is No Man by Elif Rum or The Mother Wound by Amani Haydar :)
Thank you for these book recs! They are now on my reading list ❤
added to my TBR!
These titles already sound so good!!! Thanks for the recs. I'm trying to read more middle East literature
جزاك الله

Camilla: I love this type of literature, so I really enjoyed reading this book.
Hey this is the first I'm hearing about the fan fiction angle, what was this a fan fiction for? Please tell me not for Snape and Hermione 🙃
@@sruthysk3962 kylo ren and rey
i loved iwwv too, and i don't even like shakespeare that much haha
I feel the same way about Love Hypothesis just from looking at it.
I’m patiently waiting for him to read the _love hypothesis_ 🙂
I love We Have Always Lived in the Castle. I highly recommend it, it was one of my top reads of last year!
I was revising for my maths mock tommorow.. but Jack uploaded so nvm
The Discomfort of Evening! Come on! I read it ages ago for a book club meeting and would never have picked it up on my own but it was so so good!
I actually started reading this in Dutch (the original language in which the book is written) and I still need to continue reading it oops.
It really is amazing, the writing is just exquisite! 👌🏽
I know right! I believe it was supposed to be in his translated fiction video. I am so curious what he will think about it! I thought it was so horribly good. I read it in dutch as well but i have heard that the translation is supposed to be very good!
Reading Gods must be really pleased with us. All these back to back videos from Jack are doing wonders for my depression. Haven't felt this good in months.
Loving the content lately, feeling well fed 😂💕
a certain hunger is so good!! its so amusing and unhinged its great, I didn't feel much of a need for the final three chapters but otherwise so good
Wow I really need to re organize my own TBR cart now. Great idea to actually put them in prioritize order too! :D
This is hands down the most British title I’ve seen on a Jack video
your pain is universal, i decided to mood read for the time being and its working out for me, i had to take a break from trolleys, tr and plans lol. Been enjoying your vids, keep up the good work.
Very satisfying to watch😬picking book and all😁
Excuuuuse me, The discomfort of evening was supposed to be in your translated fiction video, this is turning into The discomfort of waiting 😂
“Upstairs for thinking, downstairs for dancing”, thank you for that 🤣
Brick lane deserves so much more love. It's such a beautiful book, with a perspective I don't feel like is seen in many books. The voice of the ones usually silenced.
their eyes were watching god is such an amazing book!! we had to read it for my class in school and it’s a really great read!!

So proud of you Jack for keeping all your books organized well done 🎃🍁
If I spent as much time reading as Jack does just organizing his books, I'd finally get the first page of a book read.
Yolk's a great book. It was one of my favorites of 2021, hope you get soon to the second shelf so you can read it. I believe it could be a very good video review, there's so much to analyze on it.
This is such a good idea ! I need to figure out how to do this minus the trolley ! X
The trolley was nicely organised!
It's so good good to see books that I would like to read or have read in your book pile 🤌
you made a real life- practical- tier list.
Build Your House Around My Body was so incredible I read it twice back-to-back and I’ve recommended it to everyone who will listen.
I love videos like this, I relate all the way 😂
When you get around to Violets I recommend you read the afterword first - provides a lot of context for the novel and I immediately felt like I needed to read it again with a clearer understanding of the intention!
*me sitting down with a plate of food ready to watch some YT but not knowing what and then I see this video*
okayyy Jack let's go, what books have we got on the menu today
THANK YOU FOR POSTING RIGHT NOW, BESTIE, YOU SLAY🤭
i had trouble getting into book lovers at first (it's also my first emily henry read!) but once i made it through the first half i started to really enjoy it!
Detransition, Baby is so good. Its fast become one of my all-time favourites. I hesitate to recommend it coz i feel like you gotta know what you’re getting into but it is a really good book and i love it
(Got excited coz I’ve actually read that one lol)
The thing is when I do something like this, I get a new book which I want to read even more and bump it up to the top and so some books just go further and further down.
I am a good bit older than you so have had some books on the bottom shelf forever!
as a theater honors student, hearing Brooks “the empty space” triggered my fight or flight
this video makes me excited for the titles you mentioned, and panicked and anxious all at the same time that I will never read all the good books
omg i see the love hypothesis i can’t wait !!!!!
6:12 “Take a shot every time one of the books falls over and you’ll be hammered by the end of this video” You also might be dead!
It's honestly crazy how similar our reading tastes are.
I just finished Book Lovers and was so so underwhelmed. I will say, Beach Read is one of my fav books of all time soooooo. 👀😂
I'm so proud that I read (or actually reading, I'm currently listening to Breast and Eggs) 4 books you haven't!!
Love how that's my entire TBR
what happened to those 2 books left on the floor
I have to say that the fact that you want to read "Concerning my daughter", which is a book I made my thesis on, brings me back SO MANY MEMORIES
Immediately dropped everything to watch this
I’m actually reading When You Call My Name right now and am really enjoying it so far.
Their eyes were watching God was a book we had to read in English class in high school. One of my favorites till this day. Even the movie (starring Halle berry) was really good. I hope you enjoy it!
This made me finally purchase a book trolley. My wallet isn’t too happy about it though. Thanks Jack!
Video ideas: write a chapter after a finished book (book has 10 chapters and you write chapter 11, or just 2 pages);;; read only the first and last chapter of a book
the “okay.” at 3:56 was gold
Pizza girl reminded me a lot of Eileen by Otessa Mosfegh
‘Severance’ by Ling Ma is like the ‘Contagion’ of books change my mind.
I am all about having a cart for books you want to get to. I mean I want a cart like that. However to separate them by when you want to read them is good for you; but I can not separate them like that. They would make the cart and that’s about it. Lol. If it’s on my cart, it’s a book I want to read. Hope it works for you!!
Where do the 48 laws of power, and acts of desperation go?
Heres and idea, load the from
The bottom first? So that the weight is low and it doesnt topple over?
Although u buy and get sent so many books that I reckon ull fill the trolley in no time
you're gonna love Memorial so so so so much, i just know it
acts of service does NOT disappoint
Love your vids!!!
Can't wait to hear your thoughts on them!
Hi jack not sure if you have already done a video similar but when you write the thesis on vaga bonds would love a video of the process xxx
Severance is one of my favorite books.
We have always lives in castle is probably my favourite book ever
I just read Carmilla and wow wow wow I hope you enjoy it just as much as I did!
Looks fantastic Jack! I love ❤️ u
oooooh The age of doubt is gooood!!! You have to reead it!

Would love to see you read classical retellings such as Hester and Unwieldy Creatures!
Yeah, Dakota strikes again with Carmilla
book lovers i did not love- but some romances i did like are get a life, chloe brown by talia hibbert and american royalty by tracey livesay
Wow I was 8 and a half minutes in before I actually know which direction was higher priority loll
The amount of recommendations I always get from Jack's videos is insane, and I would like to know just how much money all these books approximately costed.
~I think we've seen this film before... and DID like the ending~
Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is amazing! Cant wait to hear your thoughts on that :)
the urge to buy a book trolley rn

book lovers is so good actually 👌🏽 it subverts hallmark romance movie tropes in the best way and i love the main characters
You and me on vacation was incredibly boring to me😭

@@spudrina it is in my tbr 😍 Although İ have to saz that “you and me on vacation” is not really my thing
Nice video ! ^^
Oh I just read 'The Love Hypothesis'
I need you to read Build Your House Around My Body!! And My Dark Vanessa too! For MDV and Dominicana I would highly recommend the audio books.
I‘ve had We Have Always Lived in the Castle on my tbr ever since they announced Sebastian Stan for the movie but then I ended up watching the movie first and now the book is just sitting there 💀 I swear I’ll get to it at some point

you should move them all down a level and put some cute decor on the top :))) then the top ones won't fall when you start reading
I love it
Ooo I really want to read Build Your House Around My Body !
Big book fear is a legit fear 😨 I never used to be scared but now? Anything over 400 pages and that will be put off for as long as possible 🤣
