take the tiny mic out of my hands please.
happy funny story release week!
come with me and dive into the murky lake water of emily henry lore. and as i tell you which books to read first!
i took inspiration to do this from so many people, including but not limited to:
mike's mic, cari can read, nicole rafiee, ashley norton, and (ofc, the one and only) jenny nicholson
sources? (other than me)
thebooksavant.com/ultimate-em...
midwestgothic.com/2016/05/inte...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emily_H...
(wiki girl till i die sry)
if you want the links to every goodreads post i can find them just lmk
for super official purposes- this is all ALLEGED!! any misspellings, or things i got wrong, i'm super sorry for. please note the sarcasm, specifically in the colleen hoover section. obviously, my opinion isn't fact. please don't sue me. i'm just a girl & this is a passion project, i am not profiting from this at all.
okay i think that's it!!
ahhh!!

25 minutes in and starting to wonder why I'm still watching.. Never once opened a YA book or heard of any of the people you were talking about.. but DAMN you got me invested in something I have absolutely no interest in! Scrolling down after half an hour of listening I genuinely expected this to have over 50k views and you to be a big youtuber I've just never seen before

Emily Henrys writing definitely evolved from Book Lovers to Happy Place. The writing in Happy Place is phenomenal, it's so gorgeous and you step right into the book with how beautifully descriptive it is. I haven't read Funny Story, but Happy Place has the best, most descriptive and really fun locations that allow for perfect scenes. I think this book has the most developed characters from any of her other books, as well as including queer and non white main characters! Its a really great summer vacation romance that has a large element of found family. All of the difference settings and activities that the characters were involved in were super fun! My copy is covered in annotations from all the times I have reread it since it came out!!

I’m going to assume that Midwest Gothic is a take on the literary genre Southern Gothic which is basically what Faulkner wrote. The term Gothic comes from the British or European genre from the 18th century which was where supernatural and dark themes are explored in the early novel. Southern Gothic took those themes and focused into a type of regionalism which was highly popular in early American literature. It’s not the same as the music genre or aesthetic.

I loved this video so much I will forgive you putting my favorite book, Beach Read, at the bottom of the pyramid.

Subscribed! I will clear up this mentioning of Gothic for the Midwest: there's a very famous painting called American Gothic- look it up, you will have seen it before. It depicts two Midwest farmers from Iowa, and it predates the gothic subgenre/music scene. Only problem is whoever made that website was hoping people would remember the painting instead of the subgenre/music scene. By the way you are hilarious and I need more videos from you
