    I love the way you talk about Calvino's book! I just finished it tonight and it absolutely blew me away... that said, the Japanese novel (On the carpet of leaves illuminated by the moon) certainly raised my, uh, eyebrows, haha. I mean, I get it, but man did it feel like some manga stuff there, haha. Japan was a very apt setting, I suppose. It was odd to me, at first, that the word "void" stuck out to you so much, because I didn't notice the use of that word at all until after I watched this video, when I was more than half way though the book. It definitely is a strong theme though, I agree now. I'm not sure if it is quite as strong in the first half, if I just never noticed it, but the last third of the book is where it really gets interesting, I think, and the void comes back over and over. Thanks for your review and your thoughts. It really is a masterpiece, and not something I'll ever forget. May we all find the book we're searching for :) Cheers!

    A Little Life was awful and it was 20 hrs and 951 pages of my life I’ll never get back. I can agree with the other books that I’ve read. I can’t wait to read the Book Thief!

    "The Birds" unfortunately is not that uplifting. It is very good, but also tragic.

    When I think of essential "Oceanside" reading I think Beach Music by Pat Conroy. It's a very long book but a good one.

    I finally read Dance Dance Dance because of your recommendation and it truly lived up 🙌🙌🙌 I think it also strangely foreshadows his thematic preoccupations that achieve full form in Wind Up Bird Chronicle!!! Thank you so much for the rec!

    Loving your videos , Emma.I am a huge Rilke fan as well and I have read "letters to a young poet" ," the dark interval" and the "book of hours"before.All were excellent reads.I want to purchase more of his books and would like to know whether I should read "stories of god" or "book of images" next and why?What subjects does Rilke adress in the book of images?Wishing you all the best for the future.

    The TJ Klune problem got me thinking: Why is that, nobody mantions the YA distopian novels based on the communist oppression? Half of Europe (and even the Far East at the moment) lived that sh*t through. Millions suffered and died during that time period. Not western world's history or trauma, yet dozens of novels and books are coming out every year based on it, and nobody bets an eye. Nobody says it's problematic.

    I totally understand the part about not wanting to finish LOTR...No joke, I started reading it in 2017, and I'm still on the second book. So the fact that I have to finish it soon for the book club is a little bittersweet 🥲

    Your love for reading lotr makes me so happy ❤ Please a split up vlogs parts for all three books because the more tolkien content the merrier! Congrats on going through the process of publication of your thesis. That is marvellous and genuinely inspiring that you have such a supportive supervisor too.
