There's a book called money's hidden tricks, and it talks about how using some secret tehniques you can attract a lot of money, it's not some bullshit law of attraction, it's the real deal

Something I've noticed is that the books I most frequently recommend are usually 4 stars. Which I think is interesting! My hypothesis is that 4+ means it's a great book, but the 5th star is more personal and may be from things I connect with that aren't as universal? I don't know! But it's interesting!

I understand that. Even some of my 3 star reads I can acknowledge are still rather good books, for example are written well and have a good plot. However, it's my 5 stars that have hit me more on a deeper level.

So true. Most of my 5 star books are pretty disturbing and can have quite a lot of triggers. Hurricane Season by Fernanda Melchor, and Beloved by Toni Morrison are both 5 star reads for me, but they're not necessarily something I would recommend to a person I just met.

I think it would be easier to just scroll through his goodreads tbh! I really enjoyed this video, I feel like Jack hasnt had the time recently to film a video where he talks about a book for more than 1 minute (each), which I think is such a shame. I love it when the description of the book goes beyond a mere summary. It seems like Jack doesnt have that much time, and I would rather encourage him to make longer video essay-ish content.

Oh, I'm toooo nice. The only books I've rated less than 4 stars are two I really did not enjoy and even then I rated them 3.5 and 3.75. I'm studying a masters in literature and writing so I don't think I'm stupid lol, but I can see merit in most books I read. But I have been reading (trying to read) The Beautiful and Damned by Gatsy for the last 12 months and as soon as I get through it, it's getting 1 star. I don't care how much merit is has, it does not deserve any more (and even as I say that, I feel guilty).

That's a stupid thing for someone to say XD you can rate books for any reason you want, and none of them are depended by your "IQ," education, or literary analysis skills. You can rate books based on how much you enjoyed the story, by how well it was written, how well the characters were developed, how well it connected with you, or conversely how well it connected you to a different group of people. For how much it made you laugh, for how corny it was. If I'm looking for a corny read, I want to know if it was an ENJOYABLE corny. Don't anyone fall for that classist rhetoric, the way you review things does not determine nor is determined by your intelligence. ❤

Jack’s vlogs are great!! If you’d like, here’s my recommendation for some really good but not as well known book creators you can watch in between Jack uploads! My favorite is allisonpaiges. She’s my queen, she is an icon, she’s the moment. Unfortunately she’s on an indefinite hiatus, but if you’re interested, just take a look at her stuff! Her editing is some of the best I’ve ever seen on the site period. She encourages self care, positive mindsets, and living life to the fullest to the best of your capabilities. Her videos are comfort videos for me and I rewatch them all the time! JesseTheReader is a channel I’ve watched for years. I’ve even met him in person at a book event lol! He’s an OG booktuber and I think his content still holds up today! He has a nice balance of chatting about both currently popular books as well as lesser known titles! He has a fun personality and a lot of original video ideas! Finally, plantbasedbride. I’m still new to her content, but it’s been so good! She gives cozy, long haul type videos and she’s been great from what I’ve watched! I hope this helps fill the need for good book creator content, lol!

I always anticipate videos with your favourite books. I adore the way you describe books and the feelings they evoked in you. I genuinely think you have incredible taste, so finding the books you've rated so high is incredibly refreshing and exciting, because I know that I have the chance to read a masterfully written or thought-provoking book that I might not have found otherwise. Sooo excited for these books. When you compared the writing in Evenings and Weekends to Baldwin's and Morrison's I actually gasped. What a high praise. I will definitely read Boulder soon, because that's one I've been eyeing for a long time because of you. Funnily enough, my only 5-star read of this year is Alice Winn's In Memoriam that I discovered thanks to you. Forever grateful for that recommendation, that book broke me to pieces and mended me back together. This reading year was quite mediocre for me, but I did get some 4,5 stars. I might need more of your 5 star reads to get some myself this year 😂

Jack! I was just going to look up the publishing date for "Happy All the Time", because I read that book DECADES ago, and I remember it as a very satisfying read with no big conflict, sweet and calming. I couldn't believe it was the same book, but it IS! I feel very validated in really liking a book that does not follow the traditional "conflict-resolution" pattern of most plots.

Great video! I read this year and loved Eugene Onegin by Pushkin. It's so good!! There are a lot of lines from this that are popular in Russian culture, even more than I realized. Almost on every page. Also it is quite funny and short. I recommend. I'm not sure how it is in translation, because Pushkin is a master poet it would likely lose some of that poetic perfection, but probably still great. I'm curious what you would think of it if you read it. I also like his short poem "Winter morning".

I don't have nearly enough books, but I'll get there someday. The creme de la fresh comment was hilarious.

My ONLY 5 star book so far is "The Book of Everlasting Things" by Aanchal Malhotra. I truly loved this book and I think it's so exquisitely written and it delves into such a heart-wrenching topic (The India-Pakistan Partition). Malhotra's writing style is so beautiful and it's one of those books where I thought every line was frame-worthy.

I see hardly anyone talk about Kristin Hannah on booktube, but I beg you to read one of her books. They are incredibly written, vivid, heartbreaking, brutal, but they live on with you. I'm reading her most recent one called "The Women", which follows a young nurse volunteer go to Vietnam during the war. I already know this will be 5 stars. The Nightingale set in WW2 and The Great Alone set in Alaska in the 80s were also unbelievable.

The first book I read this year was a short story collection called Topographica Hibernica by Blindboy Boatclub and I immediately rated it five stars. It was so beautifully written and captivating, a wonderful example of modern Irish literature.

I read white nights years ago as I was just starting to get into reading, and I have to admit I dont think my brain was developed enough for this kind of story, and now I wanna reread it but I'm really not in the mood for a love story, its a whole dilemma oml oml

A recommendation for you is an Australian book called Cloudstreet by Tim Winton, published early 90s. It’s a classic aust novel following the individual lives of 2 grieving families living in one house over a 20 year span from mid 40’s to mid 60’s. very much about the human condition with Aust post war backdrop

I've read forty-nine books so far this year and I don't know whether to give any of them five stars. So looking forward to reading a perfect, unforgettable book. Fantastic video.

I love this type of videos because I always enjoy the books you recommend. I think it is mainly because I am also an ENFP 😂

noooOooOOOO I wanted to read Boulder in Spanish (I only know castellano, which is definitely closer to Catalán than English is haha) but the Spanish edition cover is just the stock image of a rock 😭 So I think I'm gonna get the German Expressionism xylography inspired cover of the English Version instead (I'm sorry, but I can't read a book if I'm not inspired by the cover)
