I felt the “I terrorise everyone I know with book recs that I think they’ll enjoy.” on a spiritual and metaphysical level. 😂

Great, I need help Not a big reader, but want to be! I'm a homeschooling mom, I have always liked Real Housewives, currently love Below Deck TV show, but reality TV is something I'm growing away from, and am loving reading about the Classical education method. I like American folk and country music/vibe. Am feminine, love food/cooking and like sarcastic humor. Gimme recs please!!!!

I think Virginia Woolf was more ‘A Room of One’s Own’. E.M. Forster was ‘A Room With A View’. Although regardless of who said what, the view is breathtaking.

If you’re a ‘no plot, just vibes’ reader, you might enjoy the author Amor Towles as well; Rules of Civility is all about a girl making her way through New York society and I loved it, I thought it was so well-written. Gentlemen in Moscow is equally beautiful and quotable. The writing style is slightly reminiscent of Oscar Wilde, in that there is loads of commentary on society in the form of character dialogue, observation, and humor. Also, can I just say that the vacation vibes in this video are immaculate and I’m super jealous 😂 I’m currently camping in the forest with a bunch of my students (I’m an English teacher from the USA in the Czech Republic) and it’s SO cold. Don’t mind me, just daydreaming of lying on the beach in the sunshine to get me through 4° weather 🙃🙃

Yes I gave your camera a speaking part :P For some odd reason you made me want to stumble on Pizza Girl. It doesn't look or sound like my type of book at all, which is normally a thriller or crime book but yep if I see Pizza Girl she will be mine!! :P Thanks Jack!!
