whoever told us not to judge books by their covers was probably just insecure of their drawing skills

Jack you should do another judging books by it’s cover video, but instead of ones you liked, read books you wouldn’t ever read based on the cover and see if they’re any good!

The way in which you described the cover of “Topics of conversation” was a glorious reflection of your literature education. A pleasure to listen to your beautiful interpretation

I've never really understood the saying 'Don't judge a book by its cover.' That's literally what cover designs are for.

i’m in a weird era where i keep watching videos about books and listening to the people around me talk about books but not actually being able to read books myself. it’s been this way since the end of december

"This is How you Lose The Time War" definitely has a really great second act, but for me I also enjoyed the first half! The letters were witty and some of the settings were so cool, like an ancient bone temple, a dying plant, and an abandoned hospital in the middle of the woods. If you are a fan of sci-fi I think these settings make the first half more appealing! It also contains cute pop-culture references. This book made me laugh and cry, I highly recommend especially if you enjoy time travel/romance/poetry!
