Honestly I could watch you for hours your videos are so phenomenal! And so interesting and inspiring! Most of the books you read sound so interesting! And it’s rare that I watch a booktuber who reads so many books I’m interested in even if it’s something I’ve never heard of before!

Look at this absolute fucking machine cranking out content while sick! We appreciate the effort, but remember to take care of yourself first and foremost. Burnout is a real thing, my guy.

@Comet0623 27 күн бұрын

I can't tell you how MUCH FUN it is to watch you read 11/22/63! It is one of my favorite books of all time. And it was my first Stephen King novel. I avoided him because I thought he did only horror, and horror is not my thing. Boy, was I wrong! I predict 11/22/63 will be near the top for you! I plan on reading "The Stand" and "Fairy Tale" next, both of which I own. I recently subscribed for many reasons, but what clinched it was your "Convince Me to Read Your Favorite Book" video-bonus that it was filmed close to where I live! Hope you feel better soon. I'm a middle-aged female fan of both you and Ashlynn. Thanks for bringing joy to Booktube!

@meikusje 29 күн бұрын

You talking about 'running into' characters from IT in 11/22/63 made me think of Paul Tremblay's Disappearance at Devil's Rock and Survivor Song. Idk if those are really up your alley (Tremblay's work can be a bit love it or hate it), but they have a similar situation with recurring characters, and I didn't know that when I read them, and I enjoyed it so much! I read Survivor Song first, and then Disappearance at Devil's Rock it took me quite a while to put two and two together, haha, but when I realized it, I was so much more invested. So anyway, maybe you'd enjoy those as well. Hope you're feeling better, and if not, you'll feel better soon!

I read "It" by Stephen King last year and I loved the characters. I loved everything but It himself. I thought the book was beautifully written and could have been a second "Stand by me" if it wasn't for the clown. Ben is my favorite character. The funny thing is when I was a kid my mom read "It" and I found my copy of the book at a used book store and it's same edition and cover my mom had years ago. I had to tape the cover back together because the cover of the book was ripping off. The book is old.

@gracevrogerson 26 күн бұрын

I was SOOOO hyped when Jake met Bev and Richie in 11.22.63! Absolutely incredible book (as is IT!). I read IT back in 2018 and *really* feel like I need to reread it! I only read 11.22.63 last year, so I can probably hold off on that for a bit... I am also very ill and off work, so I'm planning on starting The Eyes of the Dragon tonight! I hope you're feeling better now and enjoyed the rest of 11.22.63 :))

I'm so super happy you're finally picking up 11/22/63!!! I always see it on your shelf and keep saying to myself, 'come on read it! pick it up!!.' lol. I read that book in February this year, rated it 6 stars and it is hands down my favorite book I've ever read. I think about those characters so often. It was also my first Stephan King book. I have not read IT yet but it's on my tbr for this year, but I do know the story so when I read that George was going to Derry and I was able to match up things that happened in IT to what was being told in this book, oh boy, I got so excited. I can't wait to hear your thoughts about it in your wrap up!
