    i just finished getting shouted at by my abusive mom, and I felt so alone, and the world felt like it was filled with unfeeling insensitive people. but hearing you in the intro talk about how you got so emotional just by reading people's book requests and wondering what they're going through in life... that made me feel warm inside. to see that someone is so sensitive and caring for others. i feel much better now. thanks emma

    For the 3 children from Coraline I'd recommend The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. It's about a boy surviving his family's murder and being taken in by ghosts at a nearby graveyard. Like Jungle Book but with ghosts instead of animals.

    2 years ago I found your 105 book recommendations when I was going through a rough, long, drawn out breakup and I just fell in love with your content and the energy you bring to all of your videos. Every time I see another of your oddly specific recommendations videos, it reminds me of that time, and I'm just so grateful that I found your channel when I did. It's become an integral part of my life and healing process and inspired me to read more and different books than I ever thought I would ❤

    for a fantasy with no romance i'd recommend the adventures of Amina AlSirafi it has a littleeee bit of romance but it's very action packed and full of adventures
    for a book to read while going to uni+ exchange student i recommend daddy long legs by Jane Webster
    for a book that feels like a hug Anne of green gables and little women
    A book that feels like gossip Malibu rising
    nice video as usual and the dress is super cute

    A great fantasy recommendation with zero romance (at least on-page) and lots of Coraline vibes would be Gallant by V.E. Schwab! I finished this recently and I keep seeing people in various UA-cam comments and videos asking for all kinds of things that apply to this specific book. Apparently Gallant has everything people are looking for: Gothic vibes, Coraline vibes, Night Circus vibes, zero romance, male-female friendship, haunted house, fantasy standalone...

    Solaris was an awesome book. I don't think I've had that much fun reading since high school.
    For anyone who is intimidated by the chunky scientific parts, I would say don't worry about it. The main story reads like butter. Some of the reports/logs can get pretty confusing and I think that's the point. To me, the book is about letting go of your rationality and surrendering yourself to otherworldly experiences. I would say just to try to visualize everything to the best of your ability and you will get a lot out of the story!

    Started reading Orlando and Martin Chuzlewit on your recommendation. Hadn't read either. Orlando is beautifully written. I was planning to keep Virgiana Wolf until I retired but well, I guess thats out. The Dickens version I have a wee micro book about four high and five inches in depth that I bought about 30 years ago. I thought wee books were great back then, particularly poetry books. The text be must 4 or 5 point, but I do intend to read it. I've also started reading Lud in the Mist by Hope Mirlees. I've always been into these early speculative fiction/fantasy/sf books. I've got a couple of authors from the 17th century which are excellent. I'll need to look them out. Try this: The Horse of the Invisible by William Hope Hodgson

    For the fantasy without any romance, I think The Death Gate Cycle (by Margaret Weis & Tracy Hickman) may fit that too? 7 books and as far as I recall, there's no specific romance. It's been a little while since I finished the series so I could be wrong, but that's an option that came to mind for me. The Keys to the Kingdom by Garth Nix is a middlegrade fantasy series of 7 books as well that I'm pretty sure has no romance. If I think of any more or think of any for other rec requests, I'll edit the comment. Elsewise, thanks to you, Emma, for always providing some inspiration and recs for people while dressed so wonderfully.
