I just wanted to add that it's amazing that cheap books make literature more accessible, and Poundland has lots of absolute bargains! The Great Gatsby for £1?!?!?!? INCREDIBLE. They also had A LOT of children's books for £1 which is so great because it will allow so many more children to access books!! However, for most of these books to be this heavily-discounted, there must be a reason these editions didn't sell well in the first place! Of course, there is absolutely no judgement here from me about people who buy 'cheap' books -- I buy all of mine second-hand or from charity shops if I can!! I chose the most outrageous-sounding books for the purposes of a fun review video. Just wanted to clarify this before the video goes live
As someone who’s not from the UK and briefly forgot that pound is a currency, reading “poundland” in the thumbnail definitely made me do a double take lmao
During my first year of English Studies we did Jane Eyre. And someone used this erotic Jane Eyre masterpiece to base their essays and exams on and not the Charlotte Brontë one. Good times for everyone.
BRUH I read this comment before the video was finished and I read it simultaneously as he said it in the video wtfffffffff that's insane, also funny comment -w-
Not to be TMI but this got me through 11 minutes of period pain and distracted me from said excruciating pain. That’s the kind of entertainment I signed up for.
not exactly related, but if you're into poetry (which I assume you might be since you're watching Jack Edwards lol), there's a good poem about periods aptly named "The Period Poem." You can find the video of it on UA-cam and it always makes me feel better when I have mine :)
Honestly, free books were the one thing that got me to download the Kindle app. :D I use it more responsibly now (as in buying things I like when I have no space or money for paperbacks instead of endlessly cluttering my library) but I'll always fondly remember these times- the drive, the curiosity, the digging for something you'd enjoy all the while getting lost in some pretty surprising corners... it was fun, and that's a fantastic idea for a video!!
I have diabetes and the amount of times that people have 'jokingly' called me an addict is just really frustrating. So thanks for pointing that out! Love these video concepts by the way xxx
I wanna say without having read "A Fly On The Wall" that the concept creeps me out. Like if it's not okay to do the gender reverse version of this (A guy watching girls change without their knowledge) it's not okay the other way around.
Tbf from what Jack said it sounded like the tone of the story was more "This girl is voyeuristic but she learns about male relationships" rather than "This girl is voyeuristic and the story supports her". I could see the inverse being slightly more creepy but if it had a good heart it'd be a story about a boy seeing past his misogynistic ways? Idk
The Jane Eyre book and your responses to it had me in stitches. Also, I kind of want a copy now, just because Jane Eyre is a fave and I want to see exactly how bad this is 😂
Something about Fly On The Wall looked familiar to me when I was watching this and then I realised I've had that book sitting around my house for no conceivable reason since childhood. No one in my family has read it. Where did it even come from to end up in my house... so many questions...
This is such a coincidence but I was watching Ariel Bisset’s video on “books you shouldn’t judge by their covers” the other day and Fly on the Wall was one of them! Omg it feels like deja vu or something.
Worst thing, it seems like it’s a pretty… pOpUlAr (?) genre ? Like I made the mistake of trying to find a nice copy of The Phantom of the Opera and… GOD. There are SO MANY weird erotic novels about the Phantom and it’s truly wild to imagine…
5:31 this is my favourite quote EVER. “The Lion, the witch and the audacity of this bitch!” I’m using it from now on. Thanks!! Edit : 6:28 I LOVE YOUR SENSE OF HUMOUR JACK. I’ve been laughing throughout the video 🤣
I wish in my country there was a place were I could buy books for 1€. Just goes to show that what for one person is trash for others could be a treasure. Never take anything for granted.
in germany different shops and supermarkets regularly have like a bin with 1€ books. Maybe there are some in your country too? There is a lot of trash but also some treasures, I found one of my all time favorites in one of those bins! I got intrigued by the blurb, read it and loved it so much I recommend it to everyone now 😄 (it’s called Invisible Pyramid by Ralf Isau)
Seconding what Maria Sudermann said! There ought to be similar places in your country, even if said country does not have Dollar Tree or Poundland-type retail chains. The only thing you need to do is search for them! We don't have book bins in supermarkets where I'm from, but there are secondhand sellers, and those often have a book bin. I'd often find books on the cheap there, it's more than one euro per piece but not by much. If you don't have those, there are bookshops which specialize in secondhand books, or have a secondhand section you can dig into. And if all else fails, there's always the internet! A number of secondhand sellers use Amazon to survive these days; and sure, the shipping costs stack on top of your purchase, but the purchase itself isn't much, and you can find a variety of books at around one euro. Just be careful if you shop or order lately, as according to some studies COVID can take some time to disappear from surfaces. Read safe!- ^^

I don't know where you're from but in Spain there are some libraries where you can literally get as many books as you want for whatever price that you want (free with donative basically) they always have really cool books as well There might be something like that where you live, look it up online
I'm surprised there aren't more comments about this. As soon as he said Sookie I knew and I've only seen the first episode of True Blood and that was years ago.
I literally found all of the Charlaine Harris True Blood books on a curb in my neighbourhood. Did I read them all? Yes. Am I the target audience? No. But they were free and what else was I going to do in quarantine
I'm curious!! Did you like the series after reading them? I freaking loved them, but I'm the target audience so maybe they aren't that great and I'm a sucker? 😅😅😅😅
@@reychawl I'm the target audience as well lol. I think one has to be the target audience for Urban Fantasy (which is what True Blood is though) otherwise, people find it silly.
You literally just unlocked the deepest memory of 8-10-year-old me reading Fly on the Wall after I found it at the shadiest book sale at my local showground in my tiny Australian hometown! I have NEVER heard anyone mention it before in my entire life! 😂
Same! I read this when I was younger and I really liked it. It's one of the few books that has stuck with me, but sometimes I'm not sure if I halucinated it.
If you're thinking about making an other video like you did with Arabic Literature, I wanted to recommend some books from Turkish Literature. I'll put some extras in order to make sure you can find at least 5 of them in english or maybe you won't like the subjects of some. 1.Madonna in a Fur Coat or The Evil Inside Us by Sabahattin Ali (My favorite author ever) 2.The Disconnected by Oğuz Atay (The most left halfway through book in turkish literature) 3. One Cat, One Man, One Death or My Brother's Story by Zülfü Livaneli 4.Memed, My Hawk by Yaşar Kemal (The first book of the tetralogy) 5.Lying Down To Die by Adalet Ağaoğlu (The first book of the trinity) 6.The Time Regulation Institute by Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar 7.Life's Good Brother by Nazım Hikmet (A Novel of the best poet of turkish literature) 8.Kinyas ve Kayra by Hakan Günday (Example for underground turkish literature) 9.The Black Book by Orhan Pamuk (first novelist who has earned the Nobel Literature Prime)
Sadece bir öneri ama ben olsam Zülfü Livaneliyi değil Hakan Gündayı(Kinyas ve Kayranın yazarı) önerirdim,hem daha modern hemde yeraltı edebiyatı önerdiğin diğer kitaplardan biraz farklı olurdu.
I recently subscribed and one of my favourite things is how your eyes light up when you're talking about a book you love- as a fellow book lover I recognize that look instantly (I came from your " 10 books that changed my life" video haha) ✨😊
I absolutely ADORE how you make presentations for your sponsorships!! I hope every company who you'd like to work with reaches out to you in the future because I love presentations haha
the suspense is killing me, I always watch him when I have nothing to do but eat... I'm about to eat now but I feel that I should wait 3 more hours (present) while my food gets cold. The only thing that would keep me warm is a reply from Jack Edwards. I must say that would be a ✨chef's kiss ✨ for me!
I'm such a sucker for books, I'd probably run in there and grab as many as I could regardless of the genre and content whilst screaming in happiness while my dad just looks on, kind of disappointed and partially concerned from the side.
Honestly the only good and non toxic impact that my dad’s has had on my life would probably be the fact that he raised me to be a huge bookworm like himself,I don’t care if the book is a masterpiece or if it’s about a depressed alcoholic fly,i *Need* to read it.
'has never been in a male changing room' it's about time someone misrepresents men instead of misrepresenting women though, especially in changing rooms 😅
0:40 yes, there was room for him on the door, but the door wouldn’t have been able to handle both of their weights. I mean together they were probably around like 250 pounds or more so.. I’m just saying they probably would’ve both died bc even if the door only sunk under the water a little bit, the water was so freezing that they surely would’ve died from hypothermia and blah blah blah yknow?
OMG! As an American, I definitely thought that Poundland had an entirely different meaning, especially since you were buying trashy books 🤭 I was like, wow he’s really going all in on this one 😂😂
oooh 👀 my local poundland ocassionally has good stuff-I got a copy of A Thousand Splendid Suns from there once but otherwise there's absolutely no way of knowing what to expect from the book section there lmao I had a look last week and they had a couple copies of some random thriller, some historical romances, a werewolf romance, Maleficient, and some childrens colouring books
I am sooo here for the presentation ads LOOL I can see how proud you are of the work and effort you put into it and you know what...we are hella proud of you too! Very impressive.
Thanks Jack for reminding us about pound land, so nice to see it for us international Brits 🇬🇧 who knew you could get so many books for a pound. Loved the video.
Fly on the Wall is the type of book that you bought at your elementary school book fair because you were forced to buy something and then you randomly find it your house 4 years later.
inspiration truly is everywhere. i can imagine jack going to poundland a month ago, seeing the books section, and an idea popping into his head. also it takes me so long to read a book that idk how you cope with reading so many shitty books for one video
my reaction when Jack explained the plot of dead as a doornail: ...wait... what ...Suki.. Suki Steakhouse... omg Jack hasn't watched the stunner that is the true blood Tv- Series and a commentary on that is missing from my life right now.
4:47 I used to eat bananas fine as a kid until I was about 14 and in hospital for about a week. There was a poster I had to see all day every day talking about 'boy part' health but they showed them as bananas and, at 22, I still have a strong phobia of bananas. Now I can also have a phobia of gerkins...
Lol I discovered your channel two days ago and I’m literally binge watching all of your videos Just wanted to say that you’re absolutely amazing and literally an icon and you’ve got me thinking ofstudying literature instead of psychology wich was actually my goal until now haha Btw love your style (clothes, furniture etc) haha
I can't help but feel sad that India does not have such places where I can buy readable books without paying the amount of money which can literally get me an apartment in some suburban area.
I'm DYIIIING!!! "Fly on the wall" is a book, which is regularly used in German literature classes and I know that it's bad but I didn't expect it to be POUNDLAND-bad.
This video was fab, but just for a next idea, could you please, please, review popular wattpad books? it will cost you nothing but your sanity and I think it would be genuinely hilarious
I have been LOVING the new content Jack. I'm studying English lit and lang next year and this content is so funny and refreshing to my bookish mind. Keep it up!
@@pia2902 it was alright, from what I remember. It's an epistolary novel (It basically just consists of emails that the two main characters are sending each other)
The hair tuck after “utter mayhem” 😂 I am DYING!!! Also, when jack said Heinz if you are watching, I thought Jane was doin a little something with either a ketchup bottle or ketchup and that imagery was weird 😅 I for sure wanted him to pick Jane eyre laid bare, so thanks for all you do for us Jack ❤️
Jack I BEG you to read The Neapolitan Novels ( the first novel is My Brilliant Friend ) if you haven’t already, because simply put it’s brilliant and I would love to hear your opinion about it. I feel like you would enjoy it:)

“He shaves her Jane Hair” absolutely killed me 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Now the fact that I got an Anna Karenina on the flea market yesterday for less than 50p makes me even more happy.
I know Ariel Bissett loves fly on the wall so I am interested to hear your thoughts on it
Yeah, I’m interested in what he’s gonna say about that one too
Same!
I am sooo here for the presentation ads LOOL I can see how proud you are of the work and effort you put into it and you know what...we are hella proud of you too! Very impressive.
There’s charity shops near Newcastle that do books for like 25p / 50p ! I usually end up coming home with like 10-15 books at a time. Oops
Thanks Jack for reminding us about pound land, so nice to see it for us international Brits 🇬🇧 who knew you could get so many books for a pound. Loved the video.
I feel like we need to send Jack some books to read that aren't going to leave him looking that anxious!
Mad respect to him for actually reading those books 💀
I'm in love with your smile. The smile which comes when u talk about books....sparkling
Jack! I simply adore your channel! It is so refreshing and I love the editing and jokes. Thanks for taking up my new favorite youtube niche!
Fly on the Wall is the type of book that you bought at your elementary school book fair because you were forced to buy something and then you randomly find it your house 4 years later.
inspiration truly is everywhere. i can imagine jack going to poundland a month ago, seeing the books section, and an idea popping into his head. also it takes me so long to read a book that idk how you cope with reading so many shitty books for one video
my reaction when Jack explained the plot of dead as a doornail:
...wait... what ...Suki.. Suki Steakhouse... omg Jack hasn't watched the stunner that is the true blood Tv- Series and a commentary on that is missing from my life right now.
Loved true blood.
I'm genuinely shocked, it seems like exactly the sort of batshit insane so bad it's good campiness that would entertain him
4:47 I used to eat bananas fine as a kid until I was about 14 and in hospital for about a week. There was a poster I had to see all day every day talking about 'boy part' health but they showed them as bananas and, at 22, I still have a strong phobia of bananas. Now I can also have a phobia of gerkins...
"I have the koala-fications." I just lost it at that point xD
Lol I discovered your channel two days ago and I’m literally binge watching all of your videos
Just wanted to say that you’re absolutely amazing and literally an icon and you’ve got me thinking ofstudying literature instead of psychology wich was actually my goal until now haha
Btw love your style (clothes, furniture etc) haha
I can't help but feel sad that India does not have such places where I can buy readable books without paying the amount of money which can literally get me an apartment in some suburban area.
Check out BookChor! Sells used books!
Go to the library then?
I'm DYIIIING!!! "Fly on the wall" is a book, which is regularly used in German literature classes and I know that it's bad but I didn't expect it to be POUNDLAND-bad.
‘Shaving her erm... Jane hairs’
- an icon
I love how exciting everyone is for Jack’s videos, the comment section blew up before the video even premiered
This video was fab, but just for a next idea, could you please, please, review popular wattpad books? it will cost you nothing but your sanity and I think it would be genuinely hilarious
I have been LOVING the new content Jack. I'm studying English lit and lang next year and this content is so funny and refreshing to my bookish mind. Keep it up!
2:26 like that ‘hacker from Turkey’ 😂
Congrats on 500K❤️❤️
OMG I read the German version of "Love virtually" like, 15 years ago! To see it wind up in a place like this is quite surreal haha
Was it readable?
@@pia2902 it was alright, from what I remember. It's an epistolary novel (It basically just consists of emails that the two main characters are sending each other)
@@pia2902 I loved it :)
@@apfelkirsch Someone commented that they made a movie our of it. I saw it and loved it. I might need to check if my library has a copy of it...
@@pia2902 I've seen the movie and I wasn't crazy about it :D I thought the book was much better!
Pls this needs to be a series, I laughed out loud watching it
Suki with a brother who’s suspected of murder and her being telepathic? Sounds like the series true blood😂
please please keep doing your ad presentations like that, they are impeccable! :D
"The lion, the witch, and the audacity"
Is it weird if I just put some of my favorite quotes into the comments.
The hair tuck after “utter mayhem” 😂 I am DYING!!! Also, when jack said Heinz if you are watching, I thought Jane was doin a little something with either a ketchup bottle or ketchup and that imagery was weird 😅 I for sure wanted him to pick Jane eyre laid bare, so thanks for all you do for us Jack ❤️
me respect when he made the powerpoint 📈📈
when he said “this is a retelling of franz kafka’s the metamorphosis” i had to pause the video and take a moment
Jack I BEG you to read The Neapolitan Novels ( the first novel is My Brilliant Friend ) if you haven’t already, because simply put it’s brilliant and I would love to hear your opinion about it. I feel like you would enjoy it:)
YESSS, they're so so right Jack
yesss!!!!
Congratulations Jack!!! You're 500K now!!!!
found this channel a few days ago and now when i see jack i click
I remember reading We were liars when I was so much younger and being absolutely shook.
"Rochester shaves her Jane hair" omg I died 😂😂😂
Hahaha this is why I love following you on Goodreads - it’s always a guessing game what your next video will be 😂
i'm dying at your jane eyre laid bare review 😂
Ahh Jack seems like such a cool person to hangout with.. like he radiates such crazy good vibes!!! I bet people love to be around him.
