I want to try that drink😂

Red Clocks sounds so good but so disturbing.

"My wife trusted me with her debt" First stop... TIffany's! Such an awesome and sweet video! I am totally going to get my husband to go pick out some books for me! Last year for my birthday he just bought random books off my wish list but I like the idea of him picking completely different books that are not already on my list, that he things I would enjoy.

Well, my dearest Vix, I can tell you that I still watch you because you take me out of my comfort zone (as the books you showed here prove...because I cannot wait to read them! This is very unfair to my wallet but you presented them so engagingly that the spark of curiosity appeared in me). Now the issue is not to buy them or not, but which one should I buy first! (my unread books give me killing stares from the crowded bookcases). Well, I am also here for the amazing cocktails that were greatly missed...and because I adored how Phillip and you interact. You are a cool couple to hang out with (even if it is only digitally. As for what I did for Valentine´s Day, I didn't do anything special: I worked on my thesis and then started a scene in the novel I am writing. Hugs for both of you and more side-notes in the next one, please!

My dearest Vix, I am extremely glad to be able to watch your videos again. And I am very surprised to see that you chose food books and cooking books as a theme for your comeback video. I love the fact that Spanish and French traditions regarding food are practically the same. We celebrate everything with food, hahaha. As you stated, I find incredibly hard to find cooking books for disabled people (I used to cook more when I lived in the UK but my parents home, in Spain, is not adapted so I miss it very much) and I feel very angry about it because cooking, as an activity it gave me so much independence. Other than that I find that cooking books or food-related books because, as a wheelchair user, I have to be very cautious with what I eat as I don’t move so much and, as a result, I don’t burn all the calories I should (alongside the fact that last year I had heath issues related with food, although now I am well again). So, to me, the cooking books have to be easy for me to cook but also with food adapted to my needs and that´s extremely hard to find. Do you know any book of that sort? But I love your video and, especially the book about eating based in our instincts, Í´ll see if I can find it here in Spain. Lots of hugs from Spain (make sure you rest too!) Clara

Your channel is so thought provoking. Love it.

Ahhh more videos in 2019 please, I would like that very much ☺️ I hadn’t heard of The Great Believers, so thanks for that recommendation, it sounds really compelling. I also fully accept the instruction to read So Lucky ☺️ xx

If u r into art, have u visited all the art museums & galleries worth visiting in LA, Paris & London? That Musee D'Orsay. People say they go there to see the Impressionists but for some they really go to see the Decadents whose art can slip over the line into porn plain and simple. (Art can be art-landscape porn or art-food porn or art-mythological-setting porn to some, but no one else cares.) You haven't read that Pullman book in a long time, when you were really young like 14. That wuz a really long time ago. Right. Umm you still are young, just adult now. My cousin had 2 kids as a disabled person. It happens. She's been in a wheelchair since a '90s accident.

I really need to get to The Great Believers!

Vix! Lovely to see you back talking on one of my fave topics, books and food😊 I love your idea for an accessibility cookbook! Also, super exciting that you’re planning a move to NYC! Wishing you all the best with that❤️😘

Only just got round to watching this! I love reading about food and really loved the Ruby Tandoh book. Don't know Laurie Colwin, but she sounds great (sadly not available in my library). I love the book Laurel's Kitchen which is a recipe book from the 70s used lots on communes! It's great! Happy new year! Hope you get to move to New York xx

All books here sounds wonderfully filling and lovely and I've added Eat Up to my list. It's really good to see you again and hear your thoughts--they always put a massive smile on my face! I heard somewhere recently that most of us have disordered eating habits, regardless of whether or not we have a full blown disorder, and I think the push to understand our body's intuition when it comes to food is the answer to this. I've struggled with food in the past, and coming into my veganism (and I mean that--'mine', not 'raw' or 'high carb' or other trends that have failed me) has helped liberate my mind from that endless labyrinth of superstitious eating. Part of that has been about knowing I'm fueling myself with nurturing food, but that knowledge also allows me the freedom to indulge. A dash of my two cents! I hope you are well and that you have a very wonderful Christmas time!! xxxx

Great video!

U can mix 'n match the best of food from 3 traditions, the French, British & American. How much would you say that French culture is food-based culture? Moving to NYC huh. I'm a country mouse. Too bizzy for me but some love it.

That's a beautiful bookstore. I hope I can visit this one day. I would love to read Patrick Rothfuss' Name Of The Wind. That is indeed sweet of your husband! Shoutout from the Philippines!

You guys!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ yes yes yes please to more videos together! My husband is also reading The Expanse books (he’s obsessed with the show too!), I had never heard of it either! I didn’t realize there were so many, I think he’s only read four or five.

Aw you guys are the cutest! I'd love to have someone read to me that sounds great <3

Well this is just about the cutest thing every. You too are so sassy with each other - love it! I have also never heard of The Expanse series (has your husband read A Long Journey to a Small and Angry Planet? I think he may like that as well). Him reading to you is just so cute! Clearly I need to get a copy of Radiance. I loved everything about this video!

Loved this video. Great collaboration and hope to see more :)

I read #1 of the Expanse series and really enjoyed it, but my favourite character was Miller(?) but I hated Holden (someone who should be fed to the VZ's) so I've gone no further. (leaned or leant, both might be correct,I'm probably leaning more to the leant?)

Sir...

Aaaaaand So Lucky has been purchased before your description was even over - hell yeah for disability rep! :D

I love graphic novels and the way they make social discussions more accessible, I hadn’t heard of Illegal but am now off to look it up! Thi Bui and Art Spiegelman’s books have been some of my favorite graphic novels for those reasons. Wonderful review, Vix. 😊

For Btat '18 it's all about reading short books.

You have been a busy bee indeed! So lovely to be sitting down to watch one of your videos again, always a joy to hear what you’re reading 😊 Huge congrats on surpassing 1K subscribers, completely well deserved 🎊🎉

I have had Ms Ice Sandwich in my shelf forever. I really just need to read it. I think it will be a good read. I am so glad you read So Lucky and spoke about it. So elegant as always! I agree that the end mystery part was it needed, I just think she was trying to show that the main character felt out of control and responsible for something that she really had not control over. I keep thinking about it. As always love seeing you dear and missed your face.

Immediately bought So Lucky on your recommendation. Really looking forward to it.

No funny things to say today. What Restricted Books from Hogwarts library would you read? Yes, the lure of reading Forbidden Magical Stuff!!

Hi saw your channel in Facebook group, BookTube Network. I saw Rainy Day Books from jessethereader's channel, while I saw Antigone Books, while I was randomly searching for indie bookstores in Tucson, AZ. I hope I get to visit these places in the United States soon. Shoutout from the Philippines! Hurrah!

What a selection Vix! I am extremely glad that you are going back to London and I am extremely jealous (in a good way) that you are able to see 'Hamilton'. I wish I could go to Summer and and the city and was able to meet you.However, I wish you the best time there and I hope you are surrounded by great people. And I want to see 'Tully' so badly. (I am a huge fan of Juno). Even if I am not a fan of crime, or true crime stories, you made me want to know more about it. Great as always! Hugs from Spain

Very interesting picks, Vix! I amazed by how fast and thoughtfully you read. I still have to watch a lot of your videos! Hugs!

I am so excited to read the Rachel Kushner. Hope it's good! Looking forward to seeing Tully too.

i have i'll be gone in the dark on my shelf ready to be read and i really can't wait!!!!!!

OH YOU! XXXXXX

These conferences sound unbelievably exciting!

Ahhh just found Anthony through you. He's amazing!! I wish I'd started so young too.

I just found your channel from Adam over at Mementomori and subbed! Great video, I’ve never listened to a single Hamilton song or anything related to Hamilton but one day I’ll have to get around to it! I really want to read I’ll Be Gone in the Dark!

A food video would be fabulous!

I'm here because of Adam Durand via Twitter! 😉 Go 1,000!!

I need to know what you think of the Kushner novel.. so never got on with her last book and I am like the only one. I am not a huge Hersey’s fan unless you’re using it for s’mores. That conference sounds amazing!! Wish I could go!! Much ❤️

I think I am the ONLY person alive who knows nothing about Hamilton... I could not name you one of the songs. SHAMEFUL! Enjoy wallowing in all these true crime shenanigans... No wonder you are needing to emotionally eat all this yummy food! I am definitely NOT team Hershey but am all team SPAM! Yes to foodie vids... I've been thinking of doing a bookish mukbang. A new low for booktube.

7 subs to party time @ 1K! Min. age for tube channels is on paper 13. Do u feel it should be less? If so how low? (Edit.) I see only 3 to go. Writin's on the wall now. :-)

HOW SWEET!! My husband just had us watch the new video about the Standford Prison Experiment ... crazy. I think that Professor is psycho.

I love this video, such a good idea! He chose so well and the bracelet looks so beautiful.

Love love love hearing your thoughts on the shortlist. <3 If you like books about female friendship / relationships, may I recommend Birdie by Tracey Lindberg? All fully-formed female characters told in a non-linear style. c:

I really, really liked Home Fire and I'm looking forward to Sing Unburied Sing. I did enjoy The Mermaid and Mrs Hancock, it was ok. I had problems with Eleanor Oliphant.

you had me stumped for a few minutes about the twist at the end of elinor oliphant...i couldn't figure out what you were referring to and finally it dawned on me...and i realized that the reason i didn't think of it as a twist is because as soon as it was revealed it made absolutely perfect sense to me and i said...of course that explains things..i do think she is portrayed as on the spectrum...

So, this was ADORABLE x

The twist did my head in too! felt disappointing and unnecessary xx

I don’t think I’ll ever get over Elmet not being on the shortlist, I had a dream that it won! Xx
