“she belongs in shutter island” ASDFGHJKL ORBITING IN SPACE 🤭🤭🤭 this video is already a masterpiece not even 5 minutes in

Had a roomie in grad school. She was this 6 foot red head studying biochem. Her thing was to have 2 glasses of wine while watching all the medical shows on Wednesday night (ER, Grey's Anatomy). One Wednesday, she had three glasses of wine and a little bit of truth came out. You see, as a biochem lab assistant , she had access to some of the deadliest pathogens known to man. On this one particular wine infused Wednesday night, she declared with overmuch enthusiasm "I could kill soooooooo many people." When covid came out, my first instinct was to wonder if she was involved somehow. She's prolly deadlier than the assassin with a zero bodycount.

Your tipsy giggles at Gothikana were something I didn't know I needed today hahaha.

The Kingdom of little wounds may be a terrible book, but it was funny to watch everything that happened while you read

Face blindness is actually a very interesting syndrome! People with face blindness can't recognize the faces of those they love or often their own faces. Some also can't connect faces to celebrities or important people, but patients never seem to realize why they can't recognize people. However, they do use other cues (like clothes and body shape) to recognize people. If someone can't recognize their mom's face, they might see her shirt and infer that it's their mom because they know it's their mom's shirt, and why would someone else wear her shirt? Very interesting stuff!!

I have some face blindness. I don’t think it’s that uncommon among autistic people, which I am. From what I understand, it might be because we don’t look at someone’s whole face as one “item,” so it’s hard to recognize people, especially outside of the environment where we normally see them. I once wasn’t sure if someone I saw at the mall was my dad, so I snuck away until the rest of my family gathered with him so I could recognize them as a group. I try to notice what people are wearing, but I sometimes forget to take a mental note of it.

I had a brain tumor (I'm fine!) But as a side effect I have partial facial blindness. I failed a facial recall test so badly the therapist thought I was lying. It takes FOREVER to remember a face (like a coworker) and if they have too similar features I will mix them up constantly. Like 2 thin pale brunettes with brown eyes I will mix them up all the time if I have no distinct feature to latch my mind onto. Like, watching "the departed" i literally couldnt tell the 2 main characters were 2 different actors so I was SO confused watching it. I do recognize a face as a face, and they are familiar after a prolonged time, but its... odd. Especially since I didn't have it my whole life it happened when I was 19 Edit: this problem has been EXTRA fun with all the masks during covid lol

I also read skyward this year (got it from the library because I'm a big Brandon Sanderson fan, only realised later it was young adult) and I definitely understand your dislike for it. I do however think it is almost infinitely better than throne of glass, if only because unlike Sanderson, Maas actually seems to believe her main character when she's going on about how she could kill everyone in the room.

We may never forget the first Kingdom of Little Wounds video 😅 My worst books of the year: -Weaver, Trish Thawer (received an arc, it sucked) -Are You Listening, Tillie Walden -Midnight in Everwood, Maria Kuznair

Hey Emma - Have you read any Ursula K Le Guin? If you are still looking for winter reads I reco the Left Hand of Darkness. Would love to hear your thoughts on it! It's my favourite.

The protagonist of Throne of Glass is that one guy you never want in your D&D party - makes his character the ultimate deviant art rogue whos simultaneously an ultra badass whos great at everything but also the underdog with a tragic backstory who you should feel sorry for, they then spend the entire campaign acting cocky and bragging about how they could get through any task but never contributes to solving actual problems in the slightest.

If you liked the thought of the kingdom of little wounds, maybe try The discomfort of evening by Marieke Lucas Rijneveld. I haven't read little wounds but your description made me think of Mariekes book. Also has that kinda uncomfortable vibe, body functions and heavy topics, but is very beautifully written!

Made me cross Skyward off my TBR list. Also I like the lighting on this show.

I'm not reading three books to get why people love that series so much.

Hi Emma, one friend of mine recommended your channel to me and I find your voice very peaceful to listen to so I could not stop listening for the whole afternoon. I'm not a native English speaker, but I learnt grammar at school. It makes me wonder how bad it is to have so many grammatic mistakes and kind of want to read "Gothikana". (just kidding, I don't have patience in reading English in general and I can count with my fingers how many books in English I have read. I like writing though... ) Emma, you somehow inspired me on reading and I hope I can keep up with reading books this year. Cheers

Brando Sando made me drink too this year >

these vids are great bcs spoilers don't even matter

I've heard this view on Artemis multiple times now, and it kinda hits me personally because I relate to the main character SO much to the point that I am her in a way. Just that I'm in my mid thirties now and have grown past most if not all my internalised misogyny and self-deprecating attitude. I understand the ways she talks about herself are weird if you've never been that way, but women like that exist and it's something that you get past at some point or not. The book portrays her as an extremely intelligent and skilled person whose sense of self worth is at rock bottom. I don't blame Andy Weir for writing her in that way and I don't think it's a bad case of men writing women. Not that I intend to or can change anyone's mind, just giving my own perspective :)

Great job, Emma! Happy New Year!!! (I also watched the stream lol)

This was somehow more wholesome and sweet that it had any right to be! Happy new year!

It cracks me up that the trope gets used so often in fantasy, because the whole idea of a famous assassin is just ridiculous. The only way in the real world to became a famous assassin is if by getting caught. And then they aren't really famous, they are infamous. Also cracking me up, your liver literally not knowing how to process alcohol. 🍷😂 The Last of the Mohicans by James Fenimore Cooper was my worst book. It's pretty awful. Avoid the book. Watch the 1992 movie instead

I haven’t read Rock Paper Scissors but it sounds like this horror film I recently watched called “Barbarian”. I’m not sure if you’ve seen it but I definitely recommend if you’re interested in comparing/ contrasting. The movie accomplished what it sounds like the book was trying to do. Also had no real ending though and I’m still confused when I think about it :,) but overall one of the best thriller movies I’ve seen in a while.

I DNF'd Throne of Glass in 2018. I also couldn't stand how the entire time the main character kept being referred to as "small".

I don't read that much (I don't got the time most of the day 😭) But your videos are so chill and awesome you really brighten my day especially when I'm currently struggling to keep it together. 💕

Skyward sounds like Ender's Game without the laser-focused fascism. As it were. Wine kicks in big time for Silence of Bones or what ever it is. Whoa. Milk of OD, indeed.

Listen, I read Throne of Glass, whole series. Loved it. BUT, I 1000000% agree that Celaena's whole "I'm the best" yet we never see it is my biggest critique with the first two books (she makes some stupid mistakes in book 2 also that "the best assassin" shouldn't really be making). And honestly? Once I read the whole series, book 1 felt so drastically different from where we end up at the conclusion of the series, like it almost didn't even feel like it was part of the same series as the other books. I loved the series, but it has its flaws. Telling but never showing us how deadly Celaena is was the biggest flaw of the series. Is that due to SJM having written it so young? Who knows.

This reminded me how much I loved listening to you talk about Kingdom!

My friend has face blindness, it's wild! She depends on a person's voice, gait, body, clothes, etc to determine who it is bc the things that distinguish a person from someone else (the shape of the nose, eyes, jawline, etc) all look the same to her. It only takes a couple convos before she can tell who you are which is so impressive

copied from NHS Prosopagnosia, also known as face blindness, means you cannot recognise people's faces. Face blindness often affects people from birth and is usually a problem a person has for most or all of their life. It can have a severe impact on everyday life. Many people with prosopagnosia are not able to recognise family members, partners or friends. They may cope by using alternative strategies to recognise people, such as remembering the way they walk or their hairstyle, voice or clothing. But these types of strategies do not always work - for example, when a person with prosopagnosia meets someone in an unfamiliar location.

Happy new year! My worst book was Man, Fuck This House. To be fair, I wasn’t expecting a great read but I was hoping for a fun haunted house story. It wasn’t fun. Also Andy Weir can catch a little disrespect for Artemis. 😂😂

I actually loved the throne of glass bcs the first time I read the book I was so in love with how strong the protagonist was. I think it was the first time I realized woman can be really strong and charming (bcs previously I had only found books with female protagonist who are super dependent and weak not only physically but also mentally and emotionally so I never felt identified with them and only frustrated that woman were only weak always) I think that’s why I still love that first book. But I also understand what you mean about her being said to be the best but then it’s never showed. Maybe if I read the book today I’ll feel the same way you do but still I think it opened the door for me to really understand what I liked in a female character (in this case someone who doesn’t need a boy to survive and who is at least a little bit independent and not hypocrite)

Happy new year. I have found that Brandon sanderson's fantasy is much better than his sci fi, my fav being the novella The Emperor's soul and the first mistborn trilogy (have only just got into his fantasy at the end of last year, had read multiple of his sci fi and not really enjoyed it. ) Im sorry to say that one of my worst books of 2022 was Catcher in the Rye, but we don't all think the same, hopefully you and the bookclub will enjoy it, also disliked The Unbearable Lightness of Being. A few thrillers i disliked (im probably going to stop reading modern ones) included Daisy Darker and Lock Every Door.
