Thanks for all the great, fresh recommendations and for not using the same list every YT booker repeats

I’m so excited to have stumbled across this channel! Extremely impressive .. thank you… I hope you show up much more often! Cheers!

everything I needed on this fine Saturday eve

So good about Penguin and Vanity Fair! I wasn’t getting your videos suggested for the last few months so I’m a bit late to the game but welcome back 🙏🏻

i can't believe Jaylen literally invented summer reading i really need to get on thi Mating train! i think i'll make it a top priority for 2024!

so glad to see a new video from u! my fave read of this summer was we all want impossible things by catherine newman (sooo beautiful and poignant and witty) and my least fave was probably my nemesis by charmaine cragg (intriguing premise but very dull execution).

Wooo so glad to see you back. I loved Open Throat so much just very singular and had so much heart I thought. Adding North Woods and Hope to my list immediately!

Were still here jalen! Great book recs as usual.

What an EPIC wrap up! SO many books in here that I absolutely have to read! I am so thankful for these wrap ups because I literally go back to them all the time to remember which books I need to read next and then I return to them again when I finish the book to rewatcg your review. lol You just have impeccable taste and such an infectious way of making me want to read a particular book. Thanks for doing this and for all the great recommendations!

Sounds like a successful summer of reading! You gave me some great additions for my TBR. Good to see you post, as always!

I’ve really missed your videos! So good to see you again. Much appreciated!

Look who's back! I was a but worried we would never see you again after you got your dream job. That you would forget about us and wouldn't need this community anymore. Talking about great reads this year, Vigdis Hjorth became one of my new favourite authors. I've read three books by her so far and loved them all.

Miss the wrap ups so much ❤❤❤

I always love your recommendations! Thank you!

was so pumped when i got the notification for this video at work today! adding shy by max porter to my tbr immediately 👀 i think my favorite read of the summer was a life of one’s own by joanna biggs!

Birnam Wood, My Husband & The Vaster Wilds are 3 of my favorite 📚 I read this year & absolutely feel you regarding the last 3 pages of the latter 📖🪱💚

added 5 books to my tbr! brilliant.

Quoted AND “Friend of VF” YEASSSS BABY!!

I love Ricks channel!

open throat and lookback window are very excellent

I am currently reading Happy Couple by Naoise Dolan. I love it so much but I also don't see the comparisons made between her and Sally Rooney. Have you read it? I know you read Exciting Times. I didn't, I could never get into it. Great video, so many recs.

My professor recommended to me 2666 - if you want to go over that book (and others) with our book club, let me know (I have to keep this comment as ambiguous as possible so that KZfaq doesn't think it's spam)
