    I read "Looking for Alaska" in School too. But the thing is that I'm german and we read it in Englisch class. In my opinion it was written in a very complicated way, so it wasn't that easy to understand. So I was busy with understanding the difficult words and difficult grammar and didn't really get used to the story. I think I'll read it again in a few years.

I am a book lover as well but unlike you, I don't have a lots of books.

I absolutely love both of those books, and I think that, as you've said, really make you understand that being different is great and that you should go out of your confort zone more often... One book that I think would fit into this list is Simon vs. The Homo sapiens agenda. It also deals with homosexuality and racism and I personally find it really eye-opening!

    English is not my native language. I’ve read To Kill a Mocking Bird but for some reason I cannot understand it. Like seeing the stars but not the constellations or seeing the trees but not the forest. I want to love it because I’ve heard it’s a great book.
    It’s off topic but I’m just worried for some reason. Any thoughts or advice??

    Really like this video. ❤
    And Looking For Alaska is also one of the most influential for me. Maybe you can film other videos about books that can give us positive power. ☺ (Because I really need it now. >_

    Would you be able to maybe make a video of books with lgbtqia+ characters in? I have read quite a few and have some on my wishlist but I'm just wondering if you have any other recommendations as representation is so important

      Honestly, I haven't read a ton unfortunately. I need to delve into more, but I find that a lot of books with LGBTQ+ representation are contemporaries and their writing style is one that I tend not to enjoy (like Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe and More Happy Than Not). It's that kind of quirky odd writing style that I don't like. But, I do plan on looking more into the other kinds of LGBTQ+ books that are out there because I'm sure there are some that I'd love! (Everything Leads to You for example is one I really enjoyed!) But, long story short, I don't think I've read enough yet so once I do, I will definitely do a recommendations video!

      Thank you! I've read a few recently such as Carry On by Rainbow Rowell and The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller. If you haven't read soa, I would really recommend it because it is beautifully written and is also very emotional. I've never read the books you mentioned so I'll definitely be sure to check them out!!
