    Hello ~ Hope you've all been doing well! Today's video is another dark academia themed reading vlog. I also go book shopping and actually end up going to a new book store, which was called Dillons. I had such a lovely week and a bit reading Jonathon Strange and Mr Norell. I hope you like the snippets of reading, baking and visiting the bookshop in this vlog 💛

    Frolicking in the rain is one of those meme-able "Expectations vs Reality" moments. Just like taking a cold shower. When one is sweaty from exertion or high temps, the idea of a cold shower is so pleasing. But, inevitably, that "cold" becomes "lukewarm." Please take us with you when Dillon's bookstore opens in its newer location so we can see its "intended" splendor. ^J^

    I remember it took my the longest time to finally read this book because it's size was so physically daunting. When I properly got into the story I ended up flying through it and now it's become one of my all-time favorites, as well. I've been meaning to re-read it for the last year or so, but I am once again daunted 😆. I'd recommend reading the Ladies of Grace Adieu, too, her collection of short stories, which include one or two set in the same world. She's such a brilliant writer.

      It is! Or at least, it's an aesthetic within contemporary literature. Mostly books set in academic settings or themed around learning and academia, with dark undertones 😊

    Recently discovered your channel and working through some of your back catalogue. I’ve had Jonathon Strange and Mr Norrell sitting on my shelves for so long, but might try to actually read it this year! As a former Adelaide girl, I loved seeing your trip to Norwood, and must get to Dillons bookshop next time I’m over visiting my mum. Love the vlogs, they are so relaxing.

    Hello, Christy! I just started this book thanks to your recommendation and I'm loving it ❤ Really, just having a lot of fun reading it and laughing at Mr Norrell's antics 😂 The one thing that I could possible complain about is the weight. Chunky book indeed! My wirsts get so tired after a while 😅 Love your videos they are so nice and soothing, thanks for providing us with a warm and safe space to talk about what we love most: books. Much love from Mexico 😊

    Potential SPOILERS for the ending of JS&Mr.N:
    I read "Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell", because you mentioned it in other videos. And I loooved it so much. Thanks for this recommendation! Am I the only one who cried at the end? I know it isn't an ending that calls for tears necessarily, but idk... it was kinda bittersweet, at least imo.

But taking time to read a really great book, fills my heart with joy!!! I recently listened to The invisible life of Addie LARue…..loved it!!! I want to get started on The Priory of the ORange Tree…actually physically reading it!! But wanted to ask if you ever read The Fifth Sacred Thing by Starhawke? Also looking forward to the House in the Cerulean Sea!!!

    I'm really sorry that I'm putting this comment. But can you please think about the way you end the video. That last frame with jelly fish really bothers me. I know it's just my fault and I'm sure not everyone feels that way. But I think having it at the end destroy all the nice cozy feelings that I get from your video☹️ I feel jellyfish is not connected to the video content. 🙈 Just don't get me wrong way. I absolutely enjoy your videos. I love them very much and they have helped me to get through some serious life phrases. ❤️
