your mum's an ICON please "you should read that" i love her

You getting rid of 'the stranger' and 'the kite rider' gave me a video idea for you!! Maybe you could do a video where you only read books with the same title/almost the same title. So for example read books that all have the word 'stranger' in them, and see if they all have the same theme or not :)

I mean...it's also his job so that makes it a bit different. Also he gets gifted a lot of books too. I've decided that it's insane to spend that much money on books and just go to the library when I actually want to read something. That's another point, it's nice having a collection but nowadays I get bad anxiety from having all this stuff that I will never use.

Jack deciding to keep a book while unhauling is giving very much ME energy & I support it!!

the “perhaps you should read that” from your mum omg 😭

Your channels have helped me to make reading a priority in my life, something that it has not been for probably 10 years. You have helped me to escape a years-long reading slump, reading not just when I am "free" during the summers but at night during the week. My life has improved so much over the past few weeks since I found your channel - thank you for your videos, your joy, your knowledge, and thank you for sharing all of them with us!

5:48 It’s absolutely fabulous and no editing tools needed 👏🏽

The Orphanage is one of the most popular books here in Ukraine (especially now). I haven't read it (yet) but the author is a great person, so I hope you'll enjoy it)

Your mum is great, honestly.

Seeing you get rid of The Secret Life of Bees is so sad bc I absolutely love that book! It’s a excellent book set in the civil rights movement that shows how strong bonds can be between both blood and chosen family. My cover in America is so much nicer with just some bees and a honey jar on the front, so maybe look for the American version!

I failed my driver’s license three times. There was a rule that you have to wait for three months if you fail three times but I literally moved to France for Uni a few weeks later. Here we are, 14 years later.

mum’s ‘subtly’ hinting that they want you to become a proper adult and deciding to keep books you decided to unhaul - it’s a mood

The chair thing was very cool Jack, well done

Alternate title: Jack judging books by their covers for twelve minutes 😂

jack's silly little book videos light up my silly little world!!! im living!! 😇

I think what Jack doesn’t know is the hardcover version of ‘Gone With The Wind’ is actually way better than the current paperback version. Maybe the former would change your mind.

So proud of you Jack for donating books 📚 cleaning clearing and having a nice wonderful place and for all new books 📚

No cause I was just thinking about this sksks

You made me feel so much better about unhauling books!! I always feel guilty whenever I have a book and know I will never want to read it but I feel guilty about not giving it a try. It’s sometimes okay to say that this book just isn’t for you!!

I have the whole hitchhikers series in my native language from my mom in a rare but beautfiul 60/70s edition I believe and I recently came about your english versions of the books and own only the first one. Would be interesting to compare the feel now that I am older and having it in the original text and not translated. Something tells me to collect them another voice inside me tells me I do not need another set ugh

I mainly read Thrillers so i love that my reading got a lot more versatile since i'm watching you

as a book lover, reading enthusiast, unhauling my books for the first time was scary. u r right, i started being honest to myself.. i needed more space, i dont want to be materialistic anymore, i need to be smart with my money, and i need to be sure on what i read so that i wont waste my time.. all personal decisions. ive unhauled my 200 books on 2018 and i now purchase (very carefully and thoughtfully) online and read it ebook style. best decision for me

Jack cracking himself up is the best 😂

This feels so sad like giving away books feels like getting away from friends but it's for charity so great

not me drooling over the PJ Harvey book - too bad I dont live anywhere close to you!

Highly recommend watching the Gone With the Wind movie! It’s on HBO, at least in the states. Also recommend watching Princess Weekes’ video on the book and it’s legacy. As someone who has an emotional connection to the novel but wants to be a mindful reader, that video was a thrill!

Is it me or is sweet sweet Jack becoming sassy? I love it, I'm here for it.

Don’t Cry For Me is SOOO good, glad you kept it and definitely prioritize that one! i really think you’ll like it

Jack’s range of references are just so cool! Not the Keke Palmer reference that so many of us love.

Peach blossom spring was one of my all time favs of this year!! I read it months ago & its still sticking w me. Since i started watching The Untamed in 2020 (then every other c-drama i can get my eyeballs on ever since lol) ive been really into chinese culture books as well so this was good timing being the exact kinds of books im actively seeking out 😍

Thank you for your regular entertaining content. You’re very relaxing but funny to watch and you’re one of the reasons I got back into reading ❤️

"perhaps you should read that" i nearly choked on my coffee, what a queen

the transition with the chair was in fact cool

omg so glad you kept peach blossom spring and dont cry for me. i would like to see your reviews on both

Don’t Cry for Me is sooo good! I’m glad you are keeping it.

I'm proud of you for unhauling so many books... But we all know that this just means you're gonna buy more books (and might end up getting books you originally got rid of)

Everytime u upload i get so much seretonin i swear

Unhauling books is difficult. After many years and household moves, I had to deal with my book situation this way: current reference books, comics (read and unread), my TBR, and books I know I will re-read. I am a habitual re-reader of my favorites and also have a long list of comfort reads to cheer myself up. The move before last, the movers said I had a literal ton of books....

Crying at you giving away Snowflower and the Secret fan, it is a great character study and cultural insight into foot binding. I hope you at least give one of the new books by Lisa See a go, my absolute favorite is the Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane ❤️

Oh myyyy I'm so glad that you've decided to keep Zhadan's book! Thank you!

You should definitely read The Orphanage! Such a great book and for me, it's kind of the time to read these kind of books, that tell the story of what's going on in Ukraine right now. Like, gives you so much perspective but is also really universal like any good book. Such a relief when you put it back to TBR!

DON'T CRY FOR ME is a fantastic book! Glad you kept it!

I'm glad you kept Peach blossom spring after all cause it's a really good book that I absolutely loved. Also a really interesting subject.

Jack, you're such a great entertainer, thank you.

Yes the secret life of bees has a much nicer cover in the US. That must be a UK version but I highly recommend it’s a really good book.

Jack could literally unhaul every week and still not running out of book

The spin was actually TOO cool

i just realized that the jack edwards army can be called edwardians and my life is now complete :)

Don't worry, most people will assume someone bought just the first book before they got there.

your mum chiming in to roast you and then going straight to 'one killer, 13 victims, a million viewers... that can't be the title....' had me in proper stitches lmao

Hahaha Jack with the Taylor Swift References I LOVE IT! Also, one of my favourite songs.

Can we talk about the unhaul and he still has Rodham in the background?

watching this instead of my exam prep was the right descision

you did the right thing with don’t cry for me!

9:29 - I'm dead 😭😂

That whole unhaul but Rodham gets to stay

I completely get changing your mind when talking about getting rid of books. I still have books I thought I was going to get rid of in the past.

Jack, Do you still keep the books you didn’t enjoy/ didn’t like? Cause I don’t keep anything 3 stars and below. Keeps my space intentional. Especially since I love buying books, no matter how many TBRs I have 😅

I bought my copy of "Secret Life of Bees" from my local charity shop and when I saw the cover I thought to myself " wow, this is really hideous " but I heard lot of good things about the book so I bought it anyway...and I am glad I did 😊

i'm sure you mother is a lovely woman but that was brutal and hilarious! thank you Jack's mom

"perhaps you should read that" BYE i laughed so loud 😭

the golden couple is SOO GOOD

I love a good type a hyper organization video! Yes please

Peach blossom spring was so good!!

I really liked Peach Blossom Spring, so hopefully you'll enjoy it too (when you eventually get round to reading it).

Glad you kept the Orphanage. Haven't read it yet but I still would have questioned everything I thought I knew about you lol. I like that Gone with the Wind cover bc it's like the original movie. But now I can't unsee her looking at me.

he’s our dramatic king

Loved the mom cameo 🤣🤣

Jack in the title: Unhauling all my books Jack 2seconds into the video: unhauling some of my books. 💀

SO EXCITED!! 😀💕

my heart DROPPED when you almost unhauled peach blossom spring because i'm pretty sure i recommended it to you on your last video LMAO

I just died when your mum said that 😂

It’s nice to see Jack change his mind about a book.

I see ‘Rodham’ and I remember the iconic video where it was ANALYSED. 🔥

Aww Snow Flower and the Secret Fan is so good

Am I toxic for knowing that I would not be able to do this? Yes. Yes, I am.
