Staying booked and busy this summer. What books have been your favorite so far?
Gone Girl!! - kinda late to the trend but LOVED it
Jenn Im I would recommend Mark Manson‘s books „The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck“ and „Everything is Fucked to everybody. They are so different from many mainstream books because he has so many new ideas...So they would probably be the best for me 🤔❤️
I'm currently loving Allie Brosh's Hyperbole and a Half. :)
Never Eat Alone, i never feel bored when i read it, i think you already read it
I just finished Pachinko! Such an incredible, heart wrenching book about 4 generations of a korean family from 1910-1989. It goes through the family’s life, hope, and suffering through Japanese colonialism and the war, and what it’s like to live in Japan as a Korean immigrant. I would highly recommend it!!
Am I the only one who's reading a book but still look for the next book to read? 🙃
I'm reading 3 and looking for the next haha I need to chill
I´m always reading a couple of books at the same time (now I´m reading 5 books, bc all of them are pretty boring😂) and looking forward to reading other books and searching for them
Marisa Bourgon 😂 same
Marisa Bourgon yes is know it happens sometimes 😂 lol
Haha...a lot of people do that. I am one of them
I always love how Jenn describes things. She’s not only recommending books but she’s giving takeaways quite well and even tips to go with em. I always love watching her book videos!
As a doctor, When Breath Becomes Air hit me different...
Thank you for your service and hard work for the community~
As a cancer survivor it hits me hard too. Can't help but teared near the end of the book. It is just that good.
insert namehere
would recommend Being Mortal by Atul Gawande too (:
@@nanasshi0711 yes i feel like being mortal should be must read in med school
I love how she reccomends a WHOLE RANGE of genres 👏👏 im trying to diversify my reading list and this video was so helpful!! 🌼
Please read, my dark Vanessa. You will love it.
Hi Jenn, yesterday I searched books jennim on CZcams and saw your 3 year old video about 10 books one must read before they die, and today this video popped up. Always following your book recommendations. Currently reading the handmaids tale on your recommendation. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Jenn.
PS: I love the what I eat in a week videos, helps with my ED to see someone having a normal relationship with food (not obsessing with eating "healthy" all the time) so thank you ❤️
*Immediately adds to kindle library* also I am LOVING JENN’S HAIR UGH 😩
Btw small CZcamsr here 💕
Aww thanks Cynthia! n_n
Same 😂 the Intro music was still playing and I immediately got up to grab my kindle!
Jenn Im really love ur hair color. Where did u dye it. What color is this! Looks amazing
Was literally just contemplating how I have nothing to watch on CZcams and the Jenn uploads!! Love you so much! Your positive energy is constantly inspiring me to better myself day by day 💞💞
Great timing!
I am LOVING the short hair!!! Reminds me of your hair back in the day
Yess, it's a little throwback!
Yesterday, I was literally watching all her "books to read" yesterday because she recommends all the best ones and now she uploaded a new "books you need to read"?? the best!! Love her
I finished reading "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking" last week. I really loved how it helped me understand many aspects of my personality and behaviour. I'm sure you'll enjoy reading it, Jenn! 💙
OMG I WAS LITERALLY thinking this entire week “When my physics classes are over, I’m going to start reading the rest of the summer”. I kept watching your old book recommendation videos and looking for some things to read and here you are answering my prayers. Thank you!
Since clothesencounter, I have always loved the way you conveyed an idea.

Natalies Outlet omg
OMG
Wow 😮
Omggggg I was literally watching your old books recommendations and then I received this notification ahhh!! I'm looking for book recommendations and this video is perfect!!
Serendipitous timing!
@@imjennim love you videos Jenn!!
I’m legitimately in a bookshop right now getting “the war of art” on ur recommendation lol, so this has come at the right time!!
I have bought "The Mastery of Love" from the Kindle store months ago and I keep putting it off. Sounds like it's something I should be reading. The first book from your list about friendship sounds interesting too. Thanks for the recommendations, Jenn.
Lovin’ the new hair, Jenn!
I’ve never been this early, omg. Sending love from the Philippines. ❤️
She’s so passionate about reading I love it. I’ve been wanting to get into some books but haven’t found a genre that I’d really like
I just LOVE how diverse your books recommendation is. I really appreciate and admire your effort to diversify your reading and widen your perspective on the current events. (Also your hair and dress is super cute!) oh btw I highly recommend On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong, it’s a super beautiful and raw book.
Hi Jenn! I always list down your book recommendations because I find them all interesting and different from what I usually read. Thank you for your recommendations!! Stay safe always!
As I am an aspiring doctor/medstudent, i literally loved when breath becomes air because it showed a different side of being a doctor and all the wisdom that I got from it changed my view at life. I loved it 🥺 and i will definitely check out the other books 💓
Your videos make my day. When you post, it makes me feel less alone during this pandemic. Thanks for the book recommendations I have been wanting to read more, I noticed that I stick to my usual genera of books, so I'll try to branch off to different genera. Thanks Jenn!
The way you describe books makes me want to read books I never would've considered picking up otherwise. Thank you for that
Hey Jen. Came back to this video after 2 years because I just finished When Breath Becomes Air. Oh my god. That book pierces right through your heart. It's one of the best and most heart wrenching things I've ever read
OMG! I love you, Jenn! Much needed content rn. Just wanna let you know that watching your vlogs are in my to-do-list every single day during the pandemic. It makes my day lighter! You are my ray of sunshine. 😘
I love that you have so many layers to your personality and not just beauty-based! So far I’ve read/listened to many books and podcasts you’ve talked about!
Jenn!! Thank you for your recs! ♥️ (I personally also recommend “ Maybe You Should Talk to Someone” by Lori Gottlieb) During the quarantine, we have more time to be with ourselves and sometimes anxiety and loneliness will kick in but I’d like to say your every video makes my day and does motivate me to become a more diligent and hard-working person. I admire how sophisticated, wise, and self-disciplined you are! Thank you for creating all these great videos and have a good day! 🤍🤍 love you!!
Me: (growing my hair for the last time before I turn 30)
Also me: (seeing Jenn rocking the bob style and having an incredible urge to chop off my hair again) ah shit.
Haha this is me! I have been a bob-lover since I was 6. Decided to grow my hair for the first time in years (I'm now 29). Saw Jen's hair - have been adding bob hair cuts on Pinterest for the last 3 days!
Why this is so me 😞
CONGRATULATIONS on 2.72M , Jenn!
You have motivated me everyday for the past 6 months and I am truly grateful for that! Watching you grow this fast makes me really happy.
And my channel is growing too!! I have just passed a 200 subs and I am really proud to tell you that!
You are the type of person I aspire to be, everyday!
Circe was the favourite book I read in 2019 and I could not stop recommending it to everyone around me so I got very excited when you talked about it!
Loved this! I really like how passionately you talk about the books, definitely gonna keep these in mind. 💋
Thank you so much Jenn for this kind of content, I even started my own channel because of you ❤️🥺
I LOVE your book videos! You always recommend amazing books and the way you share them with us without giving away major spoilers is great. ❤️
Jenn, I just want ti say thank you fir all the books you’ve shared in your platform. you have a really good taste and i end up liking the books you recommend so thank you for pushing me to try and engage with other genres!! ily
"When Breath Becomes Air " was SOOOO GOOOD
and i'm not a reader but i couldn't put this one down!
i just rewatched your "10 Books to Read Before You Eie" for book recommendations and this comes along!! 💞
You were very well spoken, and I loved how your analysis of each book didn’t have spoilers, yet they were full of passion!! Definitely earned my subscription
OH MY HAIR ... your hair is sooo freaking cute / love it!
Eee thank you!
Omg this hair cut is so perfect on you 😭😍❤️ I LOVE THE SHORT HAIR VIBES GOING ON LATELY. 💇🏻♀️👏🏼
Jen you are killing it with the content. You create such insightful, fun, soothing and healthy videos. Really really been helping me through quarantine. Love the book recommendations and also your insights on solitude. Me and my friend have been trying to make our own book club with a few friends here in the Netherlands. Also trying to implement better sleeping/exercising/eating routines. Oke lots of love!!!
I love your book recommendations (as always). You inspired me to read and I’m forever thankful for that. Love you, Jen!
I need to read more :( I used to read a lot in high school and I’m trying to start it back up again (currently reading Game of Thrones). Between the world and me sounded like a really good read! My university is starting up a book club specifically promoting authors of color. I will mention it to them ☺️
jenn your hair is perfect 😭❤️
Ah this couldn’t have come at a better time! I just finished reading a few books and was wondering which ones to read next! Thank you Jenn 🥰💗
I am studying for the MCAT to go to medical school, and before I got serious about studying, I was able to read When Breath Becomes Air, and let me tell you. My literal favorite book on earth and I will carry those lessons with me throughout my life and hopefully my career as a physician. I read it because of YOU, thank you so so much.
What a CHOP and beautiful intro and overall books are always for the win
Aww thanks Margit! n_n
When you watch every Jenn's vlog so you already know some of the books on this list 😂 But love your book recommendations and can we get some podcast recommendations too, please? Early so I know Jenn will see this ❤️ Love you Jenn!!! ✨
Hahahah that's so dedication. For podcasts I love Oprah's Supersoul Conversations, Life Coach School, Oologies, Radiolab, How I Built This, Joe Rogan, Duncan Trussell Family Hour, Pretty Basic, Groupchat.
i think i might be interested in reading ALL yours recs jenn. they’re all so good. i love how you explained everything in such a clear manner. building up your vocabulary has been paying off & is making me wanna get better at my own. i also really loved the way you touched on the digital addiction we’re all facing. you always find a way to bring awareness to important matters in your videos. it really sets you apart from many of the other influencers. just wanna say i always look forward to your vids :)
I literally just finished reading Circe last night and it was amazing! So beautifully written. Now I'm gonna read everything else Miller has written and your recs!!
*screenshotting every single one right now*
There's also a list in the description box if that's easier. (:
Haha I did the same 😆
Ended up reading the four agreements after reading the mastery of love! Was thinking if I should read Digital Minimalism but after seeing that it's on your list then I'm definitely getting it on my kindle tomorrow yay
so so so happy to see this notif, I love watching your book videos especially🥺❤️
Been wanting to read When Breath Becomes Air for months now and I bought it a few weeks ago just to motivate me to get through my online classes. Now that those are done, I'm ready to read my heart out! It might hit close to home as an aspiring medical professional.
Love you, Jenn! You look amazing as always ❤️ These books recs have been noted!
For a hot second I thought the stuffed animal was Cheeki in the back. I was thinking, “why isn’t she moving...” LOL
I tend to read more webtoons than books nowadays, but I’ll pick up the titles you mentioned in this video!
I think I’m going to read “When Breath Becomes Air” first because I’m starting to question my major and what I want to do with life again. Haha the existential crisis always hits at least once a year.
Thank you so much for sharing your insightful reviews about the books you’ve read! And I’m loving the hair as well!!
existential crisis tell me about it ahaha
although I'm not even that hard-working person you know lol
I love WebToons!
@@avalonprovance3600 AH!! hello!! They're really a lot of fun! Some are unexpectedly very deep/introspective. It's like the saying there's a thousand words in a picture :D
These are great suggestions. I would love to recommend:
- Cathy Park Hong's Minor Feelings: An Asian American Reckoning
- James Baldwin's The Fire Next Time
- Ocean Vuong's On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous
- Nayyirah Waheed's Salt
Hope you are doing well..
Nayyirah Waheed - Salt
I will add this to my book list.., Thank you!!!!!
Just yesterday I was wishing to see another recommended books video from you. I'm so happy now, Thank you so much. You always inspire me 😄😄😊😊
i innerly cheered when you mentioned circe!! madeline miller’s writing style is just incredible. i highly recommend the song of achilles if you haven’t read it already! 💙💙
Recommendation: Frog writer: Mo Yan
Everything I never told you writer: Celeste Ng
"Why do we sleep" by Matthew Walker - highly recommended
This book is amazingggg
Okay I'm checking this out.
This is the best
This is so timely! I’ve just been looking for a new book to read and loved all your recommendations in your last video, can’t wait to dive into these! 😁
I absolutely love your book videos and recommendations! ❤️ You speak so beautifully about books and it’s great to see reading encouraged! I used to live in Muswell Hill when I was a student, I’m sure would be a fun read for me too!
Saw this upload and immediately grabbed a notepad to write down all of these books. 🤓
I literally just searched for new books to read, best timing ever ~
JENN! Sooo many things to love: 1. How you highlight so many diverse books. 2. How real you are about your relationship with tech/your body/your friends. 3. How well you articulate yourself. 4. Your fabulous top. 5. How EXCITED you are for Greek mythology. 6. Your HAIR! 7. Your energy. THANK YOU for a great video 😘💕
I’m proud that I can say I’ve read a lot of these books! I just got back into reading again this quarantine. Thanks for always sharing your favorites because I always check them out.
I love videos like this where you talk about book!! I am curently reading 'Why we sleep' by Mathew Walker and have a long list of other books after. Any other fans of Jenn book club here?
“In Order to Live” by Yeonmi Park and “Born a Crime” by Trevor Noah are good POV books living in North Korea and South Africa ❤️
Hey Jenn!! Thank you so much for the inspiration to read! I’ve been following your reading journey for a while now and.. it is inspiring. Thank you thank you the Internet needs more of this
I love these videos!! I read when breath becomes air earlier this year and loved it, the epilogue had me sobbing 😩
Your hair 😍😍😍
Jenn I am currently reading your recommendation, The Sevens Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. It is so good I really could not put it down. UGH !
I am so inlove with that book!❤
Hi Jenn! I finished The Seven Husbands of Evelyne Hugo last month after putting it off for so long since I usually don't read that type of book. I did occasionally think if you recommending it when I was browsing for another book in a book store. And then finally I said 'whatever' and bought it! OH MY GOD. It has been one of the best books I have read in my life. I cried twice and felt all the heartache and enjoyed it! A complete game-changer and it opened up a whole new world of books to me. Thank you. I will cherish it forever.
I love your honesty, I’m so glad you share the truth about how toxic phones and social media can be even though you’re an influencer.
I love when you talk about books. “This book you’ve never heard of is SO FREAKING INTERESTING OMG,” *heads off to buy book two seconds later* Passion, baby.
Your hair makes you look so refreshing! 😍
i LOOOVE your book recommendations!!!! i always read and enjoy all of them...please continue sharing 💗

I re-read George Orwell’s 1984 a few weeks back and I highly recommend! Some elements in the book are eerily similar to today’s world...it’s a trip!
Thank you for this video Jenn!! It is really helpful to get to know new books to read (I haven't read in a while;;) and you gave me motivation to start reading again and get into action! Have a great day!
Love love loveeee these videos on book recommendations!! Thanks Jenn! You are amazing ❤❤❤
If you made a booktube account I’ll definitely subscribe!! Loved your book recommendations 💛
*Oh my gosh, are we on the same wavelength!? Because I literally made a video on books and reading as well!* 😉❤️❤️❤️
Hi
@@zamohehsjndjdm5597 hi
@@Thefitty do you want to be my friend
@@zamohehsjndjdm5597 sure! Let's chat via Instagram? I'm thefitty
Great point about reading outside of your comfort zone. It's true, we can get caught in the same type of books. Thanks for this video!
OH MY GOSH YESSSS JENN I'VE ALWAYS LOVED THIS HAIRSTYLE ON YOU!! SO HAPPY IT MADE A COMEBACK 💕💕💕💕💕
Hey just as an fyi Book of The Month had an issue where they deleted a black woman’s comment on instagram when she asked how they were going to do better in response to their post relating to BLM. Not many booktubers are supporting book of the month anymore for that problem.
Jenn-- I love your book recommendations but have you looked into Book of the Month's practices? Many Black voices in the book club and bookstagram community (particularly thestackpod) questioned Book of the Month. People questioned the company's major lack of Black authors and representation, even within their own employees. Book of the Month then proceeded to block these Black voices (blocking their accounts, deleting their questions) and refused to acknowledge their legitimate questions. They only provided some strange half-apology on IG after people started unsubscribing. It's disappointing to see you accept sponsorship from a company that purposely silences the important questions we need answered.
Love this video, Jenn! I’ve been having trouble getting back into reading, and this is motivating me to pick up a new book. Glad you read Circe too!
You are such an amazing sales woman for books! I love just hearing you talk about books and now I’m super excited to read all of these 😂🥰
Thank you Jenn for all the recommendation. I'm reading the mastery of love right now, and it helps me putting my mind together so well. Exactly what I needed at the moment. I'm so glad that I have subscribed you.
yasss! 💛🥺 more books to read thank u jenn!! also i’m loving ur hair sm!!
you have an amazing way of describing, summarizing, and sharing the books and concepts you've learned!
can't wait to get my hands on Circe!
sending renewing energy from Boston!
your book videos really make me happy. thanks, jen! sending you love💕
I actually stumbled across your channel a few months back and immediately ordered the four agreements. I LOVED it and ordered Mastery of Love. Theyre now my favorite self help/self growth books. Thank you 😊
Watching this at 9 in the morning on Monday. What a way to start my day. Thank you so much Jen
OMG YESS. I’ve been waiting for this. I loved watching your book recommendations!
Thanks you, Jenn! You are a beautiful area of social media and I love hearing your perspective and what you’re up to. You’re also immensely inspiring! In a real and attainable way ♥️🤍
I just found out your channel, and I love love love how you make your viewers feel like they are your bestfriend, you know give tips and lots more.
