I, too, love it when my books talk to each other! 😊

[@BrekkeEl]

okay can we all just stop and look at how amazeballs you look? It's like a punk Clueless and I am here for it! <3 (also, woohoo books!)

[@meljstephan]

I have been craving non fiction recently. It’s always one of my top read genres, but right now I’m feeling like I’d read a 500 page book about pencil shavings just for the satisfaction of learning

I had a surgery when I was young, and decided to read The Hunchback of Notre Dame. It was a long time ago, but I remember enough of it that I don't think I'd recommend it to many people. Not a happy story.

I love the variety you had this month! I hear you on your frustrations with academic works that are geared toward non-academic audiences, but aren't written for the intended audience. It puts so much onus on the reader to understand the nuances and intricacies of a specific field and highly specific subject matter. For me, this makes reading these works way less fun. Glad there are folx out there who do this well!

[@cathy2142]

Your rage talk through your teeth at the author of the book seduction😂❤. Love that. Me arguing with authors secretly so many times when Im reading😅

[@cathy2142]

I love your enthusiasm about books❤📚📚📚📚📚😊😊

love the hair! 😊

Thorough reviews as always. Your wrapups are always my favorites.

I keep debating if I want to attempt to read The Hunchback of Notre Dame again. Lindsay Ellis made a great video discussing the Disney movie. I have mixed feelings about Edith Wharton. I love her writing, but I don't like how her stories are always tragic.

[@illustratorsam]

I found Caste by Isabel Wilkerson had a similar premise to The Address Book, but it’s more tailored, organized, and global.

[@shrln6011]

I am glad I found you channel 😊❤

[@bookoffholicbookwart5945]

Such fantastic reads. My February was filled with short stories, especially ones translated from Japanese like "what you are looking for is in the library" and "She and her cat." I'll highly recommend both of these books

[@jup1828]

i love that you do a Wishbone series hahahahaha epic

[@coffemuse]

I love that cover of the Hunchback of Notre Dame! And really enjoyed the video, thanks.

What a fantastic reading month! I am interested in reading the otter books and I have one tagged in Libby to get to soon.

Hi Olive. Are you doing a Shakespeare reading project? I seem to recall you saying earlier this year that you had something going on with that. Anyway, you asked for recommendations for Shakespeare. Have you read Shakespeare in a Divided America by James Shapiro? Published in 2020.

On a non-book related topic, where did you get that shirt from? I AM OBSESSED
