See, there's a difference between a book that was supposed to be good (Lilly Singh), a book that's supposed to be bad for comedic effect (Miranda SIngs), and a book where the author did not give a flying fart (Jake Paul).

honestly, yes! I'd love to read an actual good poem collection, portraying simple, everyday occurrences, objects etc., as i'm a firm believer that beauty deserving of being showcased in poetry can be found anywhere, as long as you look. even ordinary things hold value to us, and with the right words you can show your readers just how much it means. life in itself is beautiful to those, who seek beauty. take sleeping as an example. everyone has different habits; some sleep with their teddies still, cuddling them tight each night, some cover their feet with covers, scared - even if their common sense tells them monsters don't exist. my point is, in simplicity lies beauty. and arguably, the best thing about poetry - everyone may interpret it differently. A comment in this thread talked about a mug. now as someone mentioned, you may interpret the mug as a metaphor to fragility. a fragile person like me may see it that way as well. another reader though may think it's about how even simple things leave an impact on us - a simple mug at first glance may mean so much to the person, which is a great opportunity to think about how we form certain connections with objects. a tall tree withering, to one person may mean someone strong at their breaking point, to another - sickness and death from old age. that's why i adore poetry. :)

Every popular KZreadr has 2 phases: Phase 1: The releasing a book that’s mostly “inspirational” and about their life lessons Phase 2: Trying to make an actual music career and make it seem like they are quitting KZread soon

Dodie's book Secrets for the Mad is a perfect example of a really well written "youtuber book" she wrote about her mental health and dealing with it in different ways in such an eloquent way that wasn't hard to digest and the artwork is absolutely beautiful. It's still one of my fave books!

The fact he finished it all in 12 hours amazes me. I cant even finished one book in a year.

Oh my god, "It literally does and that word is equivalent." DYING.

Jack, you DID NOT read that in cursive, YOU DID NOT

i seriously cant believe he said selp helf was the worst book miranda releasing a goofy book to me is way better than her trying to squeeze out a novel about her life even though the pages only have a little bit of writing, they have creative designs, drawings and pictures, and just because it isnt a chapter book doesnt make it any less valid as a book keep in mind her target audience is children / young teens, this kind of minimal writing and highly visual book was very popular to kids at the time of its release

Jack shading Conner Franta's life is cracking me up.

Jack reading adultolescence in cursive sent me through the roof

I see Jack's point about writing a memoir in tour 20s but I've had cancer since I was 13 and BOY do I have enough bs to fill a memoir

okay but the “are you happy or are you not sad?” would be ADORED if it was in like a different poetry book with better poetry
