Yes some nice tips to keep reading as a habit is by rereading your favourite book! For me, I told myself i would read a book (or 2, 1 big novel and one small novel) a month so that i have a schedule. It seems a bit forced but I know that otherwise, i wouldn't do it. I've managed to go through the huge pile of books that I've been collecting (or hoarding if u must) in the past 6 months and i've never felt happier both by incorporating reading back into my life and by flying through my pile!

Love the vibe and editing of this video! I know you're not a book youtuber, but this video felt so refreshing. Most book youtubers can get so boring.

that awesome moment when you finished reading a really good book and you see it at a store then you cunningly smile at it as if you had an affair with it

1984 was such a depressing book. It was well written, but I just wasn't expecting the ending. I felt that it truly showed the flawed nature of human character, but it sent a powerful, bone chilling message; we must fight back and stay strong.... because cowardice is the greatest sin of all.

1984 has a secret happy ending when you read the appendix after the main story. It talks about New Speak and the other stuff in the past tense, implying that the government was eventually overthrown. Very similar to the end of the Handmaid’s Tale.

The way you describe the synopsis of each book is done with so much enthusiasm and you're more articulate than some other booktubers I've seen. It's not surprising you have millions of subscribers.

Some of my favourite books are: 1. A Thousand Splendid Suns - Khalid Hosseini 2. The Kite Runner - Khalid Hosseini 3. Eleven Minutes - Paolo Coelho 4. The Alchemist - Paolo Coelho (LOVE them, highly recommend!!!)

The Uglies series by Scott Westerfeld!! He was my saving grace author in middle and high school, and creates such vivid scenes and realities for the characters he creates. Another awesome series by him is the Midnighters (I think, can't remember it exactly!) they're both sort of dystopian, si-fi, genres and absolutely amazing!

Never agreed more on a comment before!

One of my favorite books is Nella Larsen's 'Passing" The book revolves around the experience of being half black/half white in 1920s New York when there was still segregation (and obviously deep racism). The story is about two women who are both biracial. One of them lives as a black woman and the other "passes" as white. The second woman even marries a white guy who has no idea she is half black. The book was extremely seminal to me as I am also biracial and could relate to the issues presented about how race is a societal invention that is meant to categorize and divide humans. It brought to light the notion of racial fluidity and the struggles of internal identity that mixed race people face. I feel like I should also warn that the book has a sad ending :( But definitely worth reading. It's also really short so you can read it in a day!

Thank you so much for advocating and encouraging more people to pick up a book and read!! Love you!!

I love the way you describe the novels with so much detail and depth! You are so well spoken and have amazing taste. Also you're so gorgeous, your makeup is perfect in every video howww!

I love The Catcher in the Rye! It's such a unique Bildungsroman/coming of age story. Definitely had an impact on me, although I know it's very hit or miss with a lot of people. I also loved We Were Liars. That book absolutely destroyed me - I've never been hit so hard by a price of writing. An incredible story about family and love and finding yourself. Thank you for this video Jenn! It was very refreshing :)

I'd have to agree with Catcher In The Rye. It's really a mix of character pieces strewn together to tell a story. At first read, people don't understand Holden's train of thought, but after reading it with a critical and analytical brain, it's an earnest narrative. There's so much powerful symbolism in this book that it garnered me to go to NYC when I was 18 and through this book I fell in love with that city.

Aww thank you! I'm still waiting for the book shelves to arrive!

'Perks of being a wallflower' is definitely one that will always stay in my heart. "And in that moment I swear we were infinite" ❤️ thanks Jen! Will definitely go check out the others you recommended 😊

Murakami is one of my favorite writers, probably the One if I had to chose. I love Kafka on the shore! Oh and highly recommended, of course: 1984, The Handmaid's Tale, The perks of being a wallflower and The picture of Dorian Gray! Thanks for all the suggestions btw, great video!

Please do more book videos! This is so so so interesting and it has inspired me to pick up a book from the library and read in my spare time

You should definitely read "Never Let Me Go" by Kazuo Ishiguro 😊 It is hands down one of my favourite books and it's the perfect balance between dystopian and heart warming. I think you'll love it ❤️

" perfect balance between dystopian and heart warming" You spelled heart breaking incorrectly... :(

Omg you mentioned some of my favorite books!!! As well as my all time favorite The Picture of Dorian Gray! I also love the perks of being a wallflower and the 5 people you meet in heaven

Its fun watching you explain every book with so much passion and yes with a smile on your face. Keep smiling

Absolute 2 fav books I always recommend to people are The Book Thief and All the Light We Cannot See. They're both in fact set in WW2, but not your standard war stories because they revolve around children! The book thief is told from the perspective of death, and all the light has an amazing storyline that is woven so well and it's so difficult to put down. These are the reasons why they're my absolute fav of aaalllll time I hope you get the chance to read them 😊

I loved the way you hold the books. Purrrfect!

Your book taste is absolutely amazing, I am ordering all of the books on this list that I haven't already read!!

I just finished the secret history yesterday afternoon!! Jumped out of my skin when you mentioned it haha. I love your eclectic book taste, some of these are my favourites💛 (and the ones I haven't read I bet I'll love as well!!)

1984 is actually my summer reading book this year. Hearing that you enjoyed it was uplifting

Roza it's so grim and claustrophobic, but I love it regardless.

I’m new to your channel and thoroughly enjoyed this video ! So light not too long or unnecessarily chatty yet fun and informative ♥️

Thank you, Jenn. Thank you ❤️ reading Mitch Albom's book was the best way I could say goodbye to 2019 and welcome the next year with a hole new perspective of life and what is beyond our sight. Thank you. ❤️

Read the Bonesetter's Daughter by Amy Tan! It's follows the journey of Asian-American women, and particularly of a struggling young Chinese girl. It's really an eye-opener and definitely worth a read! I hope you read it~ Love you Jenn :)

So happy The Secret History was on your list! One of my favorites too, and I haven't met many others (at least near my age) that have also read it, so happy to see someone else has!
