    ‘Derry Girls’ is simply gold tier. Talk about combining history and comedy.

    “I’m just going to look” is a lie I tell myself every time I enter a bookstore

    jack, you should do a 'clean the library with me' sort of a video and let us see for ourselves how you actually manage to keep it like you do lol

    WHO GETS ONLY ONE BOOK? That’s statistically impossible. Go big (and then broke) or go home (feeling guilty)

      That’s me but with library books, I realized I might have a problem when I got 5 books a one month’s deadline on all of them. Ended up not finishing them and I am still heartbroken about it.

    None of these books is a book I would read BUT I watched this video to the very last moment and will definitely be watching it again. The passion and excitement that Jack speaks with about books makes me fall in love with reading all over again every single time. I first discovered Jack 3 or 4 years ago back when he first started posting about books. I am clinically depressed and was finding it hard to find one reason to live, and listening to Jack talk about books reminded me that I loved reading as a child and so I took it up again and then there was a time when the potential of reading all the books I wanted to read was one small reason to consider staying alive. And now every time I listen to you talk about books with all the excitement and passion in the world, even if they're ones I won't read, I just sit there and smile and am excited (which is not a word I would otherwise feel or use as a clinically depressed person) about the potential of just reading. Reading the books I do have on my TBR list. But just the act and absolute joy of reading. Thank you doesn't even begin to express my gratitude for you just being the person that you are and sharing your existence with us🫶🏼

    I also support you going into your poetry era. I dont feel like book content creators talk about poetry enough so thanks for giving it some space on your chanels.

    Poetry recommendation: Zong! by M. N. Philips
    It's really experimental in it's use of language and form. It challenges not just what a poem should look like, but also the structures and logic of language, the law, and the archive.

    Hey jack just finished reading the yellow wall paper, a short story with a Bertha Mayson-esque plot. It’s a wild ride and definitely something I think you’d enjoy, plus only takes an hour to read!! If you’ve already read it I’d love to know what you thought :)

Have thoroughly loved watching you grow and carve out your own very successful niche in a pretty packed market. However, Jack, Jack, Jack - what is with the American pronunciation of Van Gogh? Kim
