    I love these longer, chatty videos, where we get a glimpse into your life (like the food in the oven 😋) And so much footage of Zeus! He really is a beautiful cat. 💖

    I wait for your monthly reading vlogs from 25th of every month and keep checking youtube couple of times a day from the first for the new vlog. Love watching you make coffee and hearing the sounds of grinding and brewing coffee. If you are the heroine, zeus is the hero and books are the plot.

    Can you show us your library? You mention it often, and it would be fitting for your channel to show it to us A glimpse.. :-)) Whatever you're comfortable with, Helene, inside and outside, you know, with the video camera. I wonder if your library is like ours in USA. Thank you.

      Ooh I'd love to see your library too please! I like to see how libraries differ from country to country :) do you use the Copenhagen library or a local one? And I'm so pleased you picked up some more Bryson, I laugh so much when I'm reading his books (and I'm like you, I don't usually enjoy humour in books).

    Thank you so much for recommending The Transylvanian Trilogy - very excited to read this now - I had never heard of it! Almost as excited as Zeus is about tuna... I laughed for ages and replayed that bit of the video. Wonderful vlog as ever, Helene :)

    Happy Birthday! Mine was October 27th and I didn’t realize I’m only one year older than you. I love your vlogs, I always go to your channel for good adult book recommendations 😀

    I love seeing Zeus, your bookshelves ( which are gorgeous), and applaud your use of your local library!! I must say, please pick Bill Bryson's "Walk in the Woods "over Cheryl Strayed's "Wild"!!! I look forward to your videos!!

    Helene, so happy to see your new vlog. Anytime Zeus wants to vlog I will watch! You definitely mentioned some interesting books I want to read. I am currently rereading Dracula for October. I got a late start on it so have not finished it yet. Hope you had a wonderful birthday and loved the cat glitter globe. What a perfect present.

    Happy Birthday Helene..love that cat snowglobe!! I want to try They were counted soon..it sounds good, and luckily my Library has it. I am happy to see you using the Library so much these days...I must make at least 3-4 trips a week (I use to work there so it feels like home) Most of my reading comes from the Library..it's great to send a book back when it's just not the right time or the right book. You have me wanting to read some Bill Bryson! Loved the Zues show..he has the most beautiful eyes ever...and definitely a charmer :)

    Happy belated birthday! | I have Notes on a Small Island on my TBR too. As for Book of Dust, it was one of my favorites of the year, but it may not be everyone's cup of tea.

    I'm so pleased that you enjoyed "in a sunburnt country". It was my introduction to Bill Bryson and although his other books are enjoyable, none are quite as good as that one imho 😜

  • @andrewbrendan1579
    @andrewbrendan1579 Před 5 lety

    I hope you had a great birthday, Helene.---I'm very interested in "The Upstairs Room". My library didn't have a copy last time I checked but it's time to check again.---Great to see Zeus in the cupboard! I used to house-sit for a couple who had cats and the cats would open a cabinet in the kitchen and sit in the dark among the pots and pans.---I'll have to check also for "Hired". It sounds like a counterpart to the American book "NIckel & Dimed" by Dr. Barbara Ehrenreich who took entry level jobs around the United States to experience the life of the working poor.

    • @helenejeppesen2133
      @helenejeppesen2133  Před 5 lety +1

      Yes, I own and have read "Nickel & Dimed" and loved it for those same reasons I'm talking about in the video :) I hope you get a copy of "The Upstairs Room" soon..

    • @andrewbrendan1579
      @andrewbrendan1579 Před 5 lety

      I was thinking you might have already read "Nickel & Dimed" a while back but wasn't sure. Excellent book. I looking forward to comparing "Hired" to it. ---Also after seeing the chicken and potatoes you had in the oven I think I know what I'm going to have for Sunday dinner tomorrow!

    Happy Earthday again Helene 😊🎉. I say again because I also gave you birthday wishes on your Twitter / Instagram account. Your birthday was the day after mine. Nice variety of books, and well done for making use of your library - that's what I need to do! I'm reading A Dance with Dragons 2: After the feast - it's the final book in George R R Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series, which the Game of Thrones T V series is based on....I'm already looking forward to your November reading vlog!!

    I listened to Lethal White as an audiobook and enjoyed it a lot more than if I had read it. I agree that it was too long.

    I'm so sad that you decided to return La Belle Sauvage! I really wanted to hear your thoughts about this book!

  • @clarkkentnaruto4322
    @clarkkentnaruto4322 Před 5 lety

    Hi there Helene. How are you doing? Thank you so much for another great video. I wanted to let you know that I unfortunately had to put down the audio book Stalking Jack the Ripper because I had a hard time getting into the characters. However, I do have some great news, I am now on chapter 17 of the Great Alone by Kristin Hannah, which I love so much. I am also listening to the book the Mermaid and Mrs. Hancock, which has also been great to read, so thank you so much for telling me about those. Julie

    • @helenejeppesen2133
      @helenejeppesen2133  Před 5 lety

      You're very welcome! And I completely understand about the "Jack the Ripper" book. That series is targeted towards YA and is somewhat silly, but I liked how it followed the original story pretty closely :)

  • @itsjazz1598

    After watching your video, I got lots of cat videos in recommentadions :)

    @muskndusk Před 5 lety +1

    You seem to be taking an interest in Britain. I don't recommend moving here under current economic conditions.
    As someone else said in the comments, it would be nice to see your library.

  • @margaretwhittaker7519
    @margaretwhittaker7519 Před 5 lety

    My cat knows when we are going to have a tuna sandwich and she berates us until she gets some of her own. Does Zeus do that to you? Or is he more mellow about it? I love your vlogs, in fact when. I feel I need a pick me up, I tend to rewatch your vlogs.

  • @Narnian78
    @Narnian78 Před 5 lety

    I don't like Phillip Pullman at all, although I read only one book by him (The Golden Compass) . He attacks C.S. Lewis mainly because of Lewis' Christian ideas. I don't like books with a daemon conversing with a young girl (this was her inner self?), and this was presented as a good thing. I'm not sure if my memory is completely accurate, but I think that is at least partially what the book is about. It was about ten year ago that I read that book (my memory may not be completely accurate). C.S. Lewis has always been one of my favorite authors .Why didn't Pullman leave him alone even if he disagreed with him? Pullman is a bit too arrogant for me. Why attack The Chronicles of Narnia because they are Christian and you don't like them? No one is forcing you to read them. Of course I'm basing my opinion on only one book of Pullman and the things I have read about him, but I don't think my views would change if I read more of his stories.
