Where the life of the mind is down to earth🌻
Hello hello, I’m Jo, and welcome to Thought Couture! I believe stimulating literary discussion and quality writing resources should be accessible to anyone who’s interested. That’s my mission with Thought Couture-to craft a space where literature nerds of all stripes can share ideas, connect with their peers, and continue developing their skills and smarts.
On this channel you’ll find reviews and recommendations of new releases as well as brilliant backlist titles, creative writing motivation and education, and fun bookish chats that aren’t all that serious.
My reading life focuses on literary fiction, classics, creative nonfiction, poetry, and women’s/lgbt voices-so if our interests overlap, consider subscribing! I’d love to have you around 🌈
(Are you a publisher interested in my review of your upcoming release? Feel free to reach out! Please note however, I am not currently reviewing self-published books.)

Reviewing every book I read in 2024…in 5 WORDS OR LESS
I know I'm a wordy person when it comes to book reviews...but not today: 60 books, each reviewed in one sentence of 5 words or less according to their star rating. You've got that right: If it's a one star book, it gets a one word review. No reading time to waste!

Roasting the worst books of 2024 (so bad I couldn’t finish 😢)
Переглядів 95028 днів тому
We readers want to love every book we read. Sometimes, however, no matter how hard we try to focus on a book's strengths, its weaknesses are too much to bear, and we can read no further. Though a sense of shame may shroud the DNF, there's no shame in taking the opportunity to flex our critique muscles and analyze what went wrong. So that's what I'm doing today with all six of my DNF books of 20...
Don't waste your money on these book accessories 💸
Переглядів 6 тис.Місяць тому
Stands and remotes and embossers, oh my! TikTok will tell you that you need to buy all these things and more if you want to be a reader...well, I'm telling you this is crap. Today, I'm taking a look at "must have" book accessories and talking you out of buying them. Don't be fooled by Black Friday sales or holiday deals the only thing you need to be a reader is a book Shawna Ripari's channel: ...
If you’re feeling down, read these books 💙
Переглядів 603Місяць тому
When I find myself in times of trouble, literature comforts me especially these 7 books. They may not be light and cozy reads, but they offer us a space in which to process our pain alongside the characters, and we witness them transform their pain into possibility. Catharsis! So if you're in need of both a good cry and a message of hope, look no further than my favorite comfort books: from anc...

8 Disabled Writers Who Never Used AI (NaNoWriMo take note)
Переглядів 8852 місяці тому
This just in: Disabled people can be, and are, great writers and they don't need to rely on generative AI. The people at NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) don't seem to know that, though, given their recent statement that to condemn AI is ableist and classist. Without AI, they ask, how will disabled writers ever produce their work? Um...like this. Today I'm introducing you to 8 great wri...
What Writers Can Learn from Katy Perry's 143 🎶
Переглядів 9 тис.2 місяці тому
If you spend any time on the internet, then no doubt you've heard about Katy Perry's latest album, 143 and how it's universally ridiculed. In an attempt to return to superstardom, the former princess of pop music broke every writing rule and delivered the most soulless and shallow album in recent memory. Whether you write songs, sonnets, or stories, 143 serves as a model for everything to avoid...
Radical Unschooling and the Dire Consequences of Illiteracy
Переглядів 587 тис.3 місяці тому
If there's one thing TikTok is good at, it's taking things to the extreme, and these radical unschooling parents prove it. Send your kids to school? Teach them to read? No way! Instead these unschooled children are "free" to learn whatever they want, whenever they want, and if they don't want to learn something, they won't. But what does this mean for their literacy? You know, the most essentia...
