I loved this is Happiness. Have never really seen anyone talking about it! I bought a book called around the world in 80 books where the writer explores books from around the world, and I've been reading each book alongside :)

I have started reading it and it's so lovely so far! My friend from Ireland recommended it to me, otherwise I probably wouldn't have found out about it. Around the world in 80 books sounds like a great book and guide to reading from more countries, thank you for sharing :)

Such a nice selection of books! I might need to rewatch this and take notes, some of the titles really got my interest. I love that you mostly read literary fiction and classics bc that's my go-to choice too 🤍

Glad to hear some of these sound interesting tp you! I try to venture out and try new genres, but literary fiction and classics are always what I go back to ☺️

Gorgeous video as always! I have to say Exciting Times isn't fun lol it's very much like Sally Rooney, a bit disinterested and nonchalant while also tackling the guilt of desire. I bought her second book and will give it a chance, but these Irish girlies might not be for me haha. That South Korean list sounds sooo good!

Thank you so much!! Ahhh Exciting Times has just been on my shelf forever, I just can't seem to get myself to read it haha

A few disclaimers as filming Chiara and voiceover Chiara seem to be a little disconnected for this one … I realize I wrote January, while this is in fact my February wrap up 🙃 It will get fixed in my January wrap up video later!! I also probably should have mentioned that my goal is to read from at least 10 different countries this year, it makes an appearance in the video, but I somehow forgot to mention it. Let me know if you have a goals on reading books from around the world!!

Yes you are right! And hearing myself saying it was set in an English boarding school, I realised I would be swapping this with a different book for this month. Will read it as part of a different tbr :)
