Jack: I'm sure some of you are screaming this at me right now" Me: *absolutely silent*

Why the hell was my first instinct with the "Read Me" one Alice in Wonderland because of the "Eat me" and "Drink Me" LMAO

for those who were wondering: the two missing books are "Rivers of London" by Ben Aaronovitch and "Life after Life" by Kate Atkinson :)

Illustrator of the #HiddenBooksGame here - it was so lovely watching this and seeing you figure out all the clues! So glad you enjoyed it, it's always so much fun to illustrate and seeing this makes it doubly worth it! 😊📚

the way I screamed the secret history once I saw 'confidential' and the greek letters 😭

watching you guess 'the private history' was so difficult

The realisation after he said "she looks like Kate Bush" was perfect

the satisfaction of guessing one before jack 😂❤

It was a joy to watch you work through this! I loved how you said ‘another country’ and proceeded to list others beginning with A 😅😅😅

Take more quizzes, please! This is so fun to watch and it just made my day

Absolutely lost a workday to this yesterday. Every year it has to be the worst day for productivity in the publishing industry 😂

Big thank you to Jack for posting today, i was having a pretty tough day and now i feel better ❤

I was literally screaming the secret history and ace of spades and it ends with us and i was like okay how is Jack not getting these? Especially, it ends with us🤣🤣

Now I want to see a video where you read all of these! (The ones you haven't already read)

I know this isn’t a video where he is actually reviewing book but since he’s excited I’m going to say this. I love seeing him so excited about books and get so much joy out of books. And how excited he is in every video to tell us about books. I will listen attentively to everyone that’s excited for telling me something they like so much, and that thing gives them so much joy and they smile all the time. Firstly that thing has to be amazing to give you so much joy which causes you to smile so much because You deserve the smile on your face and second I have to listen to you, it gives me so so much joy to see people find happiness and joy in small things in life and live and not just survive

i was so proud of myself for guessing the bookseller of kabul. i never would’ve got it if it wasn’t for the åsne name tag & that i’ve just recent read another of her books

I squealed at Rivers of London! One of my favorite book series! I understand why someone wouldn't get it if they don't know the book(s), but on the other hand, it's very literal as well, so should be easy 😂

not me screaming at the screen convinced it was “they both die at the end” and it was the man who died twice 🤡

me: immediately and frequently refreshing the comments to see if anyone has the answers to the last two yet...

The apple clue made me so happy because I LOVE THAT BOOK SO MUCH- the appeal is a cosy mystery told through emails around an amateur dramatic society. You read through it as 2 law interns trying to put together a defence for the lead defence barrister on this case as someone has confessed to the murder but the barrister believes them to be innocent. One of the best books I have read this year.

watching you write iotopia into google hurt me as a Greek person, not going to lie 😂

ahhh i’ve never heard of this before but it’s such a fun lil concept!!

petition for jack to solve the previous years' puzzles as well

this was so fun to watch, make this a series pls

This was so fun to watch I was just guessing along with you lol

My first two tries went exactly like yours! Gone with the wind and forgetting the "the" in the song of Achilles

You should read 'the bookseller of Kabul', its really good, very well written. Åsne Seierstad went to Kabul and stayed with a family to observe what happened in Kabul with the people, the regime, etc. She has also written a book called 'Two Sisters' about two sisters who leave Norway to join the Taliban. Both books I highly recommend!!

Honestly Jack posting just made my shitty day good ❤

Not me yelling “It ends with us”! At the screen 😂

I've never seen this puzzle before ... so fun! I gave up after 12 and watched you do it. Still mad about Wuthering Heights LOL! A very fun video!!

I would love to see you do another video like this, another go at the same game, because I really enjoyed playing along and I bet others did too.

i was screamingggg the secret history hahaha

spoilers if you want to do the game i totally did research, but the two books you missed were Life After Life by Kate Atkinson and Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch

A flatmate and I spent a solid 2 hours the day it was released going through and guessing them all - the way we shouted at realising the classic novels in this list!

Ok but now is there going to be a “reading all the books in this puzzle” video? 👀

Your video made my day :))❤️

hahahah I love how for the Iotopia one he immediately put the secret library and the midnight library which is exactly what I did. I must say guessing that one was the proudest moment i had in the entire quiz. even better than when I finished it.

I got Life After Life pretty quickly, but I was so stumped on Persuasion.

woke up and got the notification for this. Fun way to start the weekend 👌🏻🌸

Pretty sure the man in the tie dye is The Man Who Died Twice 🤔 oooh yes you got it! This was so fun. I thought the lady on the ladder was A Ladder to the Sky 😅

the way you jokingly said “she kind of looks like kate bush” and you can see it click and your face change is so funny 😭😭😭

Rivers of London, you were so so close Jack! The other one I have no idea though

How exciting fun Jack 😊

i feel so validated that jack and i had the exact same first move

my serotonin level went higher as you mentioned killing eve 🖤 great content jack!

one of my favourite videos ever

For the last two: Rivers of London and Life after life

This is fun. I hope you do more games like this

Watching this, some of them that I couldn't get just seeing you work through them my brain some how clicked and I got it!! The tie dye man and the apple BUGGED me.

I guessed like two before you, but I wouldn't have gotten any of the other ones. And I knew immediately it was an Afghan hound, but that would have gotten me absolutely nowhere. Never even heard of that book.

I was screaming at the screen for the secret history one 😂

Me screaming "Rivers of London" at you the whole time.

jack please do more of the book puzzles

As a Norwegian, it was so funny to hear you try to pronounce "Åsne" btw Love you Jack

Thanks so much, you helped me with this.

You look so radiant in this grey hoodie, definitely your colour

I'm so traumatized by "Things have gotten worse since we last spoke" that it seemed like the only possible answer to the apple peeler.

Couldn't get my brain away from "Five Rivers Met on a Wooded Plain" - tried every spelling, combo, etc 🤣

I was indeed screaming at you for taking so long to guess The secret history 🤣

I cannot believe I guessed the yellow counter as "Heartstopper" before guessing it on the literal door stopper with a heart

i am immediately hooked

the bookseller of kabul, the beauty shop of kabul and the coffee shop of kabul are incredible books put them on your tbr now!!!

honestly the life after life one took me forever I kept searching up things like double life, afterlife, two lives, another life and then last minute just as I was about to give up I was like ill just try life after life, to be honest I didn't even know it was a book haha

not me screaming TWILIGHT when i saw the apple my traumas are showing

Noooooooo ahahaha when you kept saying Iotopia so confidently I was dying inside 😂 I was screaming IT SAYS HISTORY IN GREEK HAHAHA❤

i was stuck in some of those, thanks for the help 😭

The dog: "The bookseller of Kabul", by Åsne Seierstad, which is a Norwegian writer. The dog is an Afghan

Every year I try for 10 minutes, get 5 of the answers and then just give up. 😅

'read me' made me think of 'Alice In Wonderland' with the 'eat/drink me' i don't know if it's just me-

I got 10 completely on my own, and 3 with googling clues. I really wasn't expecting to do as well as I did! (Some of them were just total guesses for books I'd never heard of tho)

absolutely cackled at "norwegian woof" 😂

the way i was screaming life after life lmaoo

7:28 Jack spelled tree lives 😂

Me: totally screaming "RIVERS OF LONDON!!!" at the screen

The rivers one, oh gosh, you were dancing around that title

I followed along; and was indeed screaming at the TV 'its an afghan hound Jack!' I came straight to the comments to see if I could complete the last two images.

For the dye man I thought "They both die at the end"😂

screaming at my screen this whole time!

Me, seething with rage screaming: "It's Life After Life, Jack ... and those are Rivers of London, ever hear of a place called London, Jack!?!!?!!"

Not my German education screaming Andorra 😂

LIFE AFTER LIFE!!

I got really stuck on the apple slice and the man in tie dye, even though I’ve read the latter title 😂

i need to try this

I've tried this the past couple of years but have not, shall we say, done too well

I haven't even read Rivers of London but I was literally screaming at the screen. Jack you should have your nationality revoked lmao

SCREAMING THE SECRET HISTORY

i got 9/20 which i will happily take, though i'm the most mad about missing TWO of the books i've _actually read_ (persuasion and tsoa 🤦‍♀)

"It should be three life" *enters tree life*

The way I was screaming at my phone while watching this

Can’t get over the fact that I know a book you don’t (the bookseller of kabul). I feel accomplished in life

Rivers of London series by Ben Aaronovitch. 🤞🏼 And A little Life maybe?

I guessed Gone With the Wind too!!! It was drivinf me crazzy

That was fun!

A Little Life is one of them!

I got 15 of these easily but the last ones have been ruining my life 😂😂

"Maybe in another life" by Taylor Jenkins Raid is the two life books?

The classicist in me literally screamed at Jack the moment he read ιστορια as iotopia

Rivers of London is one of the final 2!

I got 20/20... the Rivers one is "the rivers of London" and the two lives one is "Life after life"

I guessed only 5 books in an hour (so slow) and then gave up to watch your video 😆 I do have it saved though
