      Lauren Miller Yes. Both series are really nice to watch though they are in some points very different from the books.

      @katarzynaw4664 8 років тому +1

      There's also a 'sort of" continuation of the series happening approx. 300 years later (with a TV series also). I have probably read all historical fiction by Follett and he is a master ;)

    • @weefungarian3789
      @weefungarian3789 8 років тому

      Many great other names are also in the series and they shot it in Hungary. :) Wouldn't recommend to watch before reading though. I have a friend who read the entire book on a pc... mad man, sadly, not with a blue box.

  • @lau.394

    Hey Sasha,
    I'm from Germany and I love watching your videos!
    You never fail to inspire me and you have such a loving and caring personality.
    Also, you are beautiful, no matter what hair colour you are currently wearing ;)
    I love what you said about never forgetting our country's terrible past, because I think we can learn a lot from it and we cannot let terrible things like the Holocaust happen again.
    I am also kind of impressed, because the German book you showed us was completely new to me, I've never seen or heard of it before. Now, since you as an American are reading it, I feel like I have the duty to read it as well :D
    I hope to be able to meet you one day and I am very much looking forward to finally read Zenith completely :)
    Lots of love from Germany xx

    Have you read Inkheart by Cornelia Funke, by any chance? It was translated from German and the main characters seen to have a very similar ability to those in Book Jumper (there's no Scotland though, haha) I really liked it when I read it, and would recommend to read it after Book Jumper, if you liked that.

    You said that you gave your dad "The Name of the Wind" as a present. I just read all Books by Patrick Rothfuss last week and they are so well written. Did you do a review for "The Name of the Wind" or "The Wise Man's Fear"? If not, could you do one?

  • @1LadyM7
    @1LadyM7 8 років тому +2

    I read The Pillars of the Earth quite a few years ago, and I remember that it's such a frustrating book, because it hooks you and keeps you invested in the characters, but at the same time, there are SOOOO, SO, SO many technical architectural aspects in the book. I bet that if we took out all the paragraphs dedicated to explaining how to build a certain thing, I think we would have around 3/4 of the book left. And also I remember that there were a lot of sex scenes that were incredibly awkward and gratuituous. But anyway, it's definitely a book that sticks with you.

    Hahah I totally feel ya on buying multiple copies of one book because the cover is different. If I could I would like to have 40 different Harry Potter editions... I do have 4 different ones tho!
    The Book Jumper sounds soo cool!
    I literally just read the Boy in the Striped Pyjamas and it was truly heartbreaking, just like the movie. The writing style is very simple, because it's written from Brunos point of view, and he's 9, so sometimes it felt a bit too simple, but overall it's such a great book! Hope you enjoy it!

    That edition of Diana Gabaldon's book is GORGEOUS. What did you think of Dragonfly in Amber? I lOVED Outlander and just finished Dragonfly in Amber which I felt fell so short compared to the first book in the series. I have heard that Voyager is incredible though so I will pick that one up! I would just love to know your thoughts on it???

  • @silentwings1323
    @silentwings1323 8 років тому

    SAME! I started watching The X-Files late last year and really enjoyed it. SO, I had to buy the two new books when they came out! Went to the local bookstore specifically to buy them. I just added The Book Jumper to my tbr list. You totally sold me on it. Sounds awesome. #currentlyreading Frankenstein. Never read it before. We only ever read Shakespeare in school. I think I've read Hamlet six times? Made me not want to read anymore classics ever. I'm trying to change that now though. Starting with Frankenstein!

    Ken Folletts books are great and if you like Historical Fiction you should check out his Century Trilogy. The first book is called Fall of Giants and is set during World War 1. The books follow families from the different countries though the generations and span pretty much the whole century. I really loved reading them.

It's called 'Der Feenturm' and it's about a girl who goes to Scotland and accidentally travels back 2000 years and finds herself in Celtic Scotland and it's just an all around fantastic book and I think you'd love it, but sadly it hasn't been translated to English.
