I've seen a number of "Best of 2024 So Far" vids today while at work (which I shouldn't be doing) but yours is absolutely unique, might inspire me to get out of my Fantasy/Sci-Fi comfort space again, thanks!
Hi Jack! 😊 You do look very dashing! It is always lovely to hear someone talk enthusiastically about something they really love, be it books or anything really. I've shared before that I'm also not having an outstanding reading year so far; I don't know if I've just been bad at choosing books for myself or I've simply become a more fussy reader, maybe a bit of both 😂 Still, it is worth it to go through some so-so books when you finally find a special one that blows you away! Cinema Love is the one I'm most excited to get my hands on and I'm even more excited seeing that you put it at number one! I'm sadly refraining from buying books at the moment, but it should be available at my library from September, I can't wait!
@@rie_violet thank you! Yeah, you and I have had very similar reading years, haven’t we? But we’re always holding out hope for that book that’s blows us away. So please to hear you’re interested in Cinema Love, and trust me I know about a book buying ban! I need to go on one! 😂 Thanks for watching as always friend 😊
Oh my goodness...it did it again! I wrote a long comment & it did not post! Basically, I just said that perhaps the fact that you have often felt underwhelmed this year with many of the books is because you are growing as a reader. Not to mention, as you get older, your outlook will change. If every book gave you, "that feeling" it would cease to be a big deal...🤷♂ It was fun, however, watching you describe this set of books!
Ohhhhh I’m sorry it does that to you! Believe me when I tell you I want to read your long comments! They are probably better than some of the books I’ve read this year! You’re so right, I really do think my reading tastes are changing as I grow older. I’m glad you enjoyed watching my describe these books! Thanks for watching 😊
@@jthbooks Can you believe I completely forgot to look it up when I went to the library today, and yet I came home with six new reads. 😂 So now I have 12 library books to read before mid august. And apparently 12 is the limit as well. Who knew!
@@jthbooks I looked it up and apparently one person can have 50 active loans at the same time, but only borrow 3 books per 7 day period. And the period of loan is 4 weeks usually but 6 in the summer. So I understand that I am now not allowed to borrow more books this 7 day-period. That's fair. But, the math isn't mathing. How can someone even have 50 books at home if you can only borrow 3 books a week? 🤔😅

@@caspiansvensson oh nooooo! But to be fair 12 books is a lot to handle 😂

I'm having a rubbish reading year! I don't think I'd be able to pick a top 10 😫😫
@@lynseyb7221 oh nooooooo! I’m sorry to hear this! I hope the second half of the year is better for you 🥺
@jthbooks I'm in a slump at the moment (caused by Kdramas, so it's fine! 🤣). I havnt finished a book yet in July 😬
