  • 2024 challenge suggestion: reading one book from every country you haven’t read a book from yet. You had a poll about video ideas I believe a year ago and I’d actually really love to see something like this. Only if you want to of course!

  • 36:15 As someone who lived abroad for years and then had that isolating experience of coming back home and not being able to relate to anyone or see anything the same way anymore, I am also so fascinated by this phenomenon and love when it pops up in books and I can feel more understood. A few of my favorite book quotes come to mind... "A town always looked different once you'd returned, like a house where all the furniture had shifted three inches. You wouldn't mistake it for a stranger's house but you'd keeping banging your shins on the table corners." - The Vanishing Half “You don’t have a home until you leave it and then, when you have left it, you never can go back.” - Giovanni's Room

  • I was given that same embosser and I went absolutely nuts with it 😂 I stamped all my books, I have a couple hundred, and it took HOURS. I can only imagine how long it’ll take you lol.

  • Bird by Bird is one of my all-time favourite books. I loved it so much, that I missed the author when I was done!

  • It's the "yes, I am petty." for me lmao. I needed that laugh. But I also appreciate that you and many booktubers I've seen are saying that buying this many books at once isn't normal. I am someone who also likes to collect books when I can, but there is also so many affordable/free ways to access books and it's okay to take advantage of those resources and not buy everything or read everything that is new because social media pushes us to.

  • Already added the heaven &earth grocery store. Always love your recommendations. I recommend “The Reason I Jump” it’s in a question and answer style but I found it very interesting it’s by a thirteen year old autistic boy in Japan.
