Metaphysical level? I thought metaphysics was the study of the reality of existence, and such and not PERSONAL RELATIBILITY

Great, I need help Not a big reader, but want to be! I'm a homeschooling mom, I have always liked Real Housewives, currently love Below Deck TV show, but reality TV is something I'm growing away from, and am loving reading about the Classical education method. I like American folk and country music/vibe. Am feminine, love food/cooking and like sarcastic humor. Gimme recs please!!!!

I think Virginia Woolf was more ‘A Room of One’s Own’. E.M. Forster was ‘A Room With A View’. Although regardless of who said what, the view is breathtaking.

Taking your mum to Cyprus for her birthday is *lush* 😇 - well done you! Enjoy!✌🏾

I read Conversations on Love as part of a local book club and omg it is the best!! Makes total sense that you want to take your time with it because there is so much to absorb and unpack. So glad you're enjoying it so far and thank you for taking us on holiday with you

British Vogue needs to get in on ‘What’s in Your Bag?’ with Jack Edwards.

If you’re a ‘no plot, just vibes’ reader, you might enjoy the author Amor Towles as well; Rules of Civility is all about a girl making her way through New York society and I loved it, I thought it was so well-written. Gentlemen in Moscow is equally beautiful and quotable. The writing style is slightly reminiscent of Oscar Wilde, in that there is loads of commentary on society in the form of character dialogue, observation, and humor. Also, can I just say that the vacation vibes in this video are immaculate and I’m super jealous 😂 I’m currently camping in the forest with a bunch of my students (I’m an English teacher from the USA in the Czech Republic) and it’s SO cold. Don’t mind me, just daydreaming of lying on the beach in the sunshine to get me through 4° weather 🙃🙃

3:52 "Gonna leave my phone" 4:02 immediate next shot: *holding phone*

I love you Jack! Thank you for making our lives so much more fulfilling by posting great and humorous videos!💜📚

New reading vlog from Jack, week cannot start better! Hope you had a great time :)

Jack, these vlogs are literally my life support right now. Thank you!🤗🤗

Tbh I dont read what you typically read but your voice and your videos are so calm! I love it

Your vlogs have such an amazing, calm yet humorous vibe to them. KEEP POSTING THEM!

Your vlogs always get me going :) There is such a calmness to watching you talk all about books. I felt like I was on a vacation watching you vlog!

Nice to hear that you’re having a great holiday with your mum, Jack!

You Will Not Have My Hate was a beautiful and heartbreaking book, it reminded of me of When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi.

THANK YOU FOR THE BACK TO BACK VIDEOS, YOU ARE SAVING ME!!!! 😭😭😭😭

Love your reading vlogs Jack, please keep them coming 😊💙

6:59 Haribo candies are so good! I’ve never had that specific version, but I’m not surprised you enjoyed it.

This channel is such a comfort watch for me...I seriously poured myself some tea and curled up in my bed to watch this vlog :))))

This made me feel so relaxed ✨️no plot, just vibes✨️

What a nice relaxing chill video right before we approach the Fall.

I’m so glad you enjoyed Pizza Girl! It’s one of my favorites I read last year

Yayyyyy!! Jack in my country, Cyprus!! Happy that you are here! 🍷

Lovely vlog. I have My Dark Vanessa on my TBR, still haven't gotten around to it but now it's on my tbr cart instead of my shelves. Hope you had a really good vacay!

What a solid list of books! One of my favourite vlogs in a while

Honestly, your content is ✨️chaos and vibes✨️ and I'm here for it 😌 I'm also moving countries soon and I've been prepping for it (just want it to hurry up and happen already 😅)

There goes my tbr list. Jack, you are making me BROKE and I thank you for it

Not to be a Goodreads stalker, but are you going to discuss Our Wives Under The Sea at some point? I really loved that book and want to hear your thoughts, haha. I hope your move goes well!

Happy Hour sounds like it would be exactly my type too. It's at the top of my TBR now!

What a sweet little video! Loved coming on holiday with you

When I finished reading Happy Hour my thoughts were exactly the same - absolutely is a 5 star, also, my exact taste in literature. This is all the proof I needed to trust any book recommendation you give :D

"A walking library of book recomendations"is the perfect way to describe you cz you give the BEST book recs

I'm really looking forward to the My dark Vanessa video! I read it recently and it was a 5 star read for me.

Great. So now, not only my TBR doubles every time I watch these videos, but now my travelling list also increases. I wanna go to Cyprus.... 🤩

Conversations on Love is taking me a couple months to read for that reason exactly! feel like I can only read 30/60 pages before I need like a massive break to digest everything.

I also dog ear the best quote pages! I need to know where the serotonin lives!!

You should also visit Greece since we are close to Cyprus! I love your channel so much 💞

That clip of the cats just made me explode because it’s too cute. I need to go to Cyprus now.

AHHH PERFECT EVENING ENTERTAINMENT

I love you Jack thanks so much for everything so proud of you of everything how exciting you are moving Jack another adventure 😊

“… and the view is pretty good too.” I LOL’d so loud.

Omg I got pizza girl in a book box over a year ago and haven’t even thought about picking it up yet but seeing that you liked it… I will definitely read it now

I’m so glad u like Pizza Girl. That book surprised me w how much I liked it

OMG i was literally thinking the 'and the view's pretty good too' right before you said it and burst out laughing

imo dog ears are better than sticky tabs for annotations. how the pages wear down adds personality to a book, it shows how much the reader enjoyed it.

I am going to have to send you some tabs. The folded over pages chilled me to the bone. 😂😂

damn, i love these vlogs soooo bad

I thought I was the only one who folds the pages w quotes I like to come back to it later but app it’s pretty common😭 however I don’t underline just re read the whole page to rediscover it and feel the feels again

Based on your upsidedown dog ears I think Happy Hour is a must re-read for you Jack!!

HAYY LOVE YOU!!

I love this vlog!

love your videos

Must recommend A Good Year by Polis Loizou A very short book that takes place in 1925 rural Cyprus. Read in one day! Loved the superstitions and bits of Cyprus culture, especially the creepy woodland creatures. Overall fantastic blend of religion, fantasy, and horror.

It's like your camera said "Jack knows what Jack looks like, lets focus on the things behind him that he may not have noticed!" Yes I gave your camera a speaking part :P For some odd reason you made me want to stumble on Pizza Girl. It doesn't look or sound like my type of book at all, which is normally a thriller or crime book but yep if I see Pizza Girl she will be mine!! :P Thanks Jack!!

10:00 to 12:00 were so unhinged and hilarious I loved it

YAY SO EXCITED ❤😊

I loved happy hour and now picked up pizza girl! great recommendations xoxo

Good morning/afternoon/night readers and buyers💞💞💞 I said that because they are different habits reading books and buying books 😂

Also, don’t worry I dog-ear the pages I like in my books too!!

Kiwi Life Hack: Train yourself to be comfortable eating them like an apple. I know it takes some time getting used to but once it's not weird anymore you can just eat the kiwi by biting off the knobby bit at the end and spitting it out and then just eat the whole kiwi.

Who’s surprised by Jack’s avoidant relationship with packing? No one. Next he’s going to say that his camera battery is dying.

virginia woolf said a room of one's own, Jack. 😂

1:21 why do i have the feeling that jack held himself from saying ‘see the sea’ xD

Good luck with the big move 👏🏽🎉

I recommend reading The silent patient, it’s written by a Cypriot writer 😊

Those are my favorite Haribo treats as well. Plus, they come from my hometown. Hint: the Bo in Haribo stands for Bonn. :D

Gin lemonades and books; what more could anyone want?

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH

*with love* you’ve been doing us a disservice for not giving us at least 2 reading, rambly, random, vlogs a month

5:34 You look very cute with your impeccable eyewear. Also, I think the slight blur adds to the video.

Jack, what was your opinion on “The Razor’s Edge” can’t find your review 😅

Hi Jack!! Random thought, but I think you would really like the book Tin Man by Sarah Winman! I just read it and it seems like your vibe

This was so cute.

okay it's so WEIRD how you're reading 'shuggie bain' of all books and I just happen to click on this vlog - my uni just had an event with douglas stuart YESTERDAY where he talked to one of our lecturers about his new book 'Young Mungo'. what are the odds!! he's an incredible speaker and it made me really excited to read his latest - do let us know what you think of 'Shuggie Bain'!

Hi hi hiii, do you have to read Lolita before reading My dark Vanessa? 😊

For a second there I thought you paid 10 € for the fruities, and I was like: I’m sorry jack cyprus is stealing from you I though you had already passed the Libras to euros transformation 😂

as a Cypriot we're happy to have you over! there's this misconception that all English tourists are uh well how do I put it... mischievous? that'll do I guess 💀. Anyway, you're proving them all wrong so !!!! hope you enjoyed your stay

The Island of Missing Trees… did not enjoy! Not for me but everyone’s different, glad you enjoyed it I guess. Hope you didn’t get attacked by any wild cats, when I went to Turkey I was followed by them, they jumped on our tables and we’re actually really annoying no matter how cute they were. Invest in a Kindle for travelling Jack, used to really love mine, my love for it comes and goes, in a go phase rn but it’ll come back I’m sure. Love highlighting bits on it, can’t bring myself to mark a physical book

Jack, not sure why I have not noticed before but you have lovely eyes!
