    Doesn’t anyone else wish they had a best friend that you can talk to about books you are currently reading and they actually find it interesting and a best friend that can recommend books to you and they can borrow books from you and you can borrow from them? Don’t you wish you had a best friend who reads the same books as you so you both can gush over the characters and predict what’s going to happen next in the story?

    It's so refreshing to see someone not have the same books everyone else has. I love lots of the YA series other people cover, but I also adore classic lit (and so many other kinds), so it's great to see other genres represented.

    I love that you read different genres and books that aren't necessarily trendy on booktube, it reflects a different approach to literature that you don't often find on youtube. It's so comforting and refreshing, it really feels like talking to a friend about books!

    I have a lot of books, just like you. I always tell myself: a book already read is enthralled when it’s open. After I finish every book, I just want the whole world to read them. My cousin asked me if she can barrow my book, I told her: a book is supposed to be read and the reader is supposed to be fascinated, so ofc I let her barrow it. The amazing aspects of a book are truly worthy. Thank you for the tour!

    I wrote this comment right after I saw you showing the alienist and then I came back to watching the video, and now I had to stop again to edit this comment because I just watched the part where you show a clarice liespector book!!! it really makes me happy to see brazilian authors in your bookshelf ❤️ brazilian literature is just fantastic and I really hope that when you read those books you'll like them enough to search for more of our literature, you won't regret

    soooo incredibly happy to see Machado de Assis on your bookshelf 😭 i really want to recommend to you “captains of the sand” by Jorge Amado! it’s my favourite Brazilian classic (and one of my all time favourite books ever) it tells a lot about our society (even now). I want to give you this recommendation as a gift because you gave me something so special and that became so important to me.. i’m talking about Rilke! I read him because of you and how beautifully you talked about him and Rilke has helped me get through A LOT! so i really want to thank you with captains of the sand, a book that is extremely important to me as well ❤️

    Wow this honestly reminded me of my grandpas study back in Nepal. It was a decent room , just one out of the 6 rooms in the house. The house is located on a mountain so it's very cold half of the time. But my grandpas study room had a big shelf containing all kinds of books from recent novels to Sets from The Hercule Poirot series. There were two sofas and a sherpa wool carpet all around. The room had some crazy insulation all around and one window through which you could see the trees. It was a warm and cosy room for harsh Nepali winters. I used to spend hours there after lunch just soaked in the novels until I was summoned for dinner. ah good times.

      Calvino especially is my personal fave and Verga for prose and Leopardi and Ungaretti for poetry

    Loved this video so much!
    So nice to see such diverse tastes and that bookshelves don't have to be perfect (like not having the whole trilogy etc) because I always buy second hand and sometimes read on Kindle so I may not have whole series in print!
    I have so many more books added to my must-reads now so thank you!!!

    I am so happy to stumble upon your channel. I am a real book lover and I will certainly explore some of your books, especially Rilke. I have been living and working in Southern Oman for 7 years now, and the nearest bookshop to me is an hour's plane flight away (Muscat). I have to read on my kindle, but I LOVE real physical books. Thank You!!

    Nobody ever talks about Virals! I’ve never even seen a hard copy and I read it years ago from the library digitally. Now I have to track down a copy!

    I don´t know if you know it, but the best quote that I have ever read about books is the one of Barbara Tuchman: “Books are the carriers of civilization. Without books, history is silent, literature dumb, science crippled, thought and speculation at a standstill. Without books, the development of civilization would have been impossible. They are engines of change (as the poet said), windows on the world and lighthouses erected in the sea of time. They are companions, teachers, magicians, bankers of the treasures of the mind. Books are humanity in print.” Pure poetry. It would be great to put that in a frame.

      then again, she was a writer of history so perhaps there's some bias? idk

    so true. At some moment I was interested in soiaf and after a second book I thought "I don't want to continue until at least the winds of winter come up". I think if I continue to read I may be not able to stop and I don't want to stop because there is no continuation. I have stopped but I know that I can continue. I don't want to be stopped because there is nothing further.
