I've never been able to get into "BookTube" - you're one of few people I enjoy listening to talk about books on this format! We have similar tastes and I appreciate how specific you are about what speaks to you in each book without seeming pretentious. I'm reading The Annotated Mrs. Dalloway now and have read a book by Vita Sackville-West, All Passion Spent. Not one of my favorites of that genre but you might enjoy it (or similar books published by Virago Press).

@@MauveASMR It’s such a beautiful edition and I feel like I’m getting a lot out of the extra commentary and context from Merve Emre. Would make a good present!

Rebecca is one of my all time fave books. I also love Watership Down. I re-read it every few years.

I remember being assigned Rebecca for my 7th grade English class. The same week I brought the book home I was also grounded… so I binge read the entire thing. Still one of my all time favorites as well 💕

I love ASMR book reviews! Well done, ma’am!

I just saw this channel. I enjoyed your book reviews. I will have to read a few of those. Thank you.

Really enjoy your book videos! Always super thoughtful, and most of what you read is *totally* different than what I normally go for. Making a note of a few of these books for the future! I read Mrs. Caliban two? three? months ago after picking it up because you mentioned it and OMG I'm still thinking about the last 20 pages of the book. Cheers 🍻

@@MauveASMR Oh definitely because!! I'm a big believer in having a broad cultural palette, and there's nothing quite like the high of discovering something word of mouth that I never would've seen otherwise and being like "omg this is INCREDIBLE".

Classic literature : “Don Quixote” is the greatest writing I’ve ever read! Other favorites: “Hyperion” for sci-fi lovers. I think it’s even better than “Dune”, another favorite!! Fitzgerald’s “Tender Is the Night”! Modern literature: anything by Paul Auster, especially “Moon Palace” or “Oracle Night”!! My favorite book ever might be “Girl with a Pearl Earring”. Sensational writing. My favorite recommendation from your book videos: “West” by Carys Davies”. Masterwork novella! “Weather” by Jenny offill was amazing too! Also you got me into sally Rooney’s work so thanks!! Amazing author. 😄🙏🏻

My favorite book and possibly one of the best classics: Wuthering Heights. so deep in character and just such a passionate story. but also, if you’re into the real old school stuff, the hunchback of notre dame and Les Miserables are beautiful, both by Victor Hugo.

Ohhh I didn’t realize Second Place was your favourite Cusk! It’s the only one I have by her but I was deterred by some mediocre reviews. I hate choosing favourites but if I have to I’ll pick The Sparrow (epic sci-fi but make it a theological study) and the peculiar life of a lonely postman (how loneliness forces companionship)

Oh interesting! Like I said, Second Place isn't a perfect book but I think about it all the time and I really really enjoyed reading it. I also love the Outline trilogy, although it's a totally different feel! If I make a second part the Outline trilogy will definitely be mentioned :) And finally, thanks for the recs!

I've read Giovannis Room this year and LOOOOVED it! One of my absolute favorite books is "On Chesil Beach" by Ian McEwan. It's a heavy read not because it's difficult to read but it portrays perfectly the complexity of a human being. Highly recommend this one. I read it a second time this year because it never let me go.. To me it's a brilliant book and I'm slightly shocked that this book is written by a man because I can relate to the female protagonist so immensely. But I guess Ian McEwan is just a terrific writer. 💙

Hey Mauve. How are you today? I was hoping you'd choose Rebecca. I re-read it last year and it's one of my favorites ever. My edition seems a bit strange but I actually love the design of the cover. It has a beautiful illustration of Rebecca and the main character. The Second Place and The Idiot sound pretty good. I think I've already added both to my Goodreads TBR. Now I want to read Portrait Of A Marriage for the Non Fiction November challenge. I really love listening to you talk about books in general.
