📖 📕 📚 happy birthday!

I loved this. It was fun to hear you geeking out over history.
Yes, I've read The Voyage Out. I've read all of Virginia Woolf's novels. Just last year I re-read them all in chronological order of publication, which I've never done. I enjoyed it (but then I enjoyed all of VW's novels). You can really see her pick up her stride towards the end of the book. Interestingly, Mr and Mrs Dalloway make an appearance in The Voyage out as characters. I also think Night and Day is a much underated novel. Here's a book emoji for your birthday 📗
A beautiful video, Claire! You surely spent your birthday in the best way, soaked in history, art, literature, and, of course, loved ones! Wishing you a truly wonderful birthday!
A collaboration for business book launching in lebanon
@megreads9 I don’t think this is right for my channel as I don’t do any videos on business books or business studies!
@@Claire_Fenby maybe you miss understood me, I am not asking a collaboration for myself, it's whole different project, if you have e-mail I will explain the whole idea
What a brilliant, inspiring video, Claire! Your handbags are beautiful, and I can’t wait to pick up many of the books you have suggested…there is not a one that I wouldn’t want to read!! So glad you’ve enjoyed celebrating your birthday in such a special way. Cheers and best wishes for a lovely year ahead!!🥂📚📖❤️
Happy belated birthday! This was a lovely video 😊
Happy Birthday 📚

Welcome! Thank you for subscribing ❤️
Happy birthday Claire! 🎁🍰🎉🎂🎊❤️💍📚
Your birthday month activities sound wonderful!
The Bloomsbury notebook - you asked for ideas around what you could use it for. You could keep it as a notebook that you only use when you take expeditions to go to any of the Bloomsbury or Bloomsbury-related sites. For example, lie on the lawn at Monks House and write poetry, or simply use it as a journal to document what you saw in those places and the thoughts you had. Or, expanding on that, you could use it not just for Bloomsbury-related sites, but ANY literary sites that you go to, including other writers' homes, writers museums, or even author events or book festivals.
Happy Birthday Claire 🎉 I was in Sussex last Autumn but sadly Monks House was closed that day! I love To the Lighthouse and I studied it for my O Levels when I was 15. I only discovered it again recently after watching a previous vlog of yours and now love Mrs Dalloway too!📚
I’m so glad you revisited it! It’s such a special book ❤️
I own all of the history books you have featured. I too love the Tudor era and the Georgians. Every time I have visited England I go to Hampton Court. I was able to go to a church service the last time I was there. I am an American Episcopalian so I had no problems fitting in with the service. When we got married 40 years ago, we went to London for our honeymoon. I bought 2 small tins of sweets at the Tower: one with Elizabeth I’s portrait on it and the other with Henry VIII. I still treasure them today. 📚🇺🇸📚🇬🇧 Happy belated birthday! 🥳 🎂🎁📕
📚 Lovely video ❤
📖📚Happy late birthday! Taking serious note of the historical books here
Thank you so much for the praise for Blood, Fire & Gold !! You're the kindest !! And happy belated birthday and all the very best! Love your videos! Thank you again so much!! (and no cake for me either ;)) xx
Happy Birthday, Claire! 📖📚📓

📚🐈⬛🐾Happy Birthday Claire!
Happy 😃 Birthday 🥳 Claire hope you enjoyed your birthday 🥳 month and enjoy reading your virgina Wolfe books 📚 love your Aussie family friend John ❤❤
Happy birthday Claire! I wish you all the best in your 28th year 😊📖
Book! I loved your video! Happy belated Birthday❤
📚 What a fabulous birthday month ! Thank you for sharing all of the outings
Such a beautiful, interesting, birthday video! 📚
idea for that gorgeous Virginia Woolf diary - perhaps you can put all your favourite Woolf quotes in there! Lovely.
What a wonderful book haul and I love your necklace!📚
Sounds like you had a lovely birthday month! I’ll definitely be going to that exhibition at the Queens Gallery when I’m in London next month, thanks for the heads up on it! I really enjoyed a biography of George III recently and can’t wait to read more about the Hanoverians.
Loved this video! 📚📚📚📚📚
Happy birthday 🎉📚🤗
Happy Birthday, Claire 📚🎂 Your videos are such a comfort to me! Thank you for sharing your adventures ❤️
Thank you for watching ❤️
So now I will be off to find out more about Princess Charlotte, you have started something here.
I adore Monks house, so special.I'm yet to visit Charleston. I have read 'The voyage out,' but it was quite a few years ago now. I do remember enjoying it. Thank you Claire, some very books 📚📚❤
What a nice video and so many beautiful gifts and books! I have an idea for your nice notebook. You can use it as a commonplace book. That means you write in your favourite quotes from the books you read, so they are all in one nice place for you to browse.📖😊I have mine for years and it's to lovely to flick through the pages.😊
ive read the voyage out & it was interesting, it's a novel that definitly illuminates some of the kind of work that virginia woolf needed to do before writing to the lighthouse, mrs dalloway etc, but it definitely isnt a modernist masterpiece in the same way but considering ur a vw fan i think it will be worth your time ! happy belated birthday !
So looking forward to reading it! Glad to hear you enjoyed it ✨
I'm geeking out about your geek birthday!
I forgot to leave a book emoji so I'm back. 📚
Happy birthday Claire! I just noticed your new engagement ring is so beautiful! Would love if you could share a bit about it if it's not too personal? Seeing your style develop over the last couple of years (Like the Anne Boleyn pearls, zatchels etc) is v inspiring! 📚✨
Happy birthday, Claire. I always get an idea of a new book to read when I watch your videos. Now, The Voyage Out is on my list. It's hard to believe that the first video of yours I ever watched was when you were about to start university. You have introduced me to so many good books over the years, and of course to creators like Ariel. I also miss the UK a lot, so your fun trips always give me ideas of places to visit the next time I make it there with my family. I also grabbed that discount code so I can try and order a bag for my wife, Kate. Hoping they ship to the US.
The journey we’ve been on together! Thank you for watching and always supporting ❤️
📚 Happy Birthday! I loved The Life & Death of Anne Boleyn by Ives!!
Thank you! I look forward to reading it
What a lovely video.🍀☘🍀
Happy bealted birthday! Thank you for making this video and showing us arround at these wonderful places! I am a huge Virginia Woolf fan and I have coincedentally just read 'the voyage out' for the first time. And I really unexpectedly loved it! I wouldn't have thought because it is one of Virginias earliet novels with a more novellike (less stream of conciousnesslike) writing style but who was kidding; it was still the languid, lyrical, meandering and beautiful writing that I am used to and actually really interested to see it worked out in a more plot oriented story (although still not ver plot oriented at all, considering). It just kept me reading. And I also really recognized myself very unexpectedly in many moments and described feelings and situations of the novel, even though my situation is very different. Unexpected catharsis ;)
Thank you again for talking about all the interesting book and places. On to a new year full of learning, inspiration and adventure! xx📚
This is the most wonderful recommendation so thank you! Looking forward to picking it up later on this year ✨
Happy 📚 Bookish Boleyn-ish Birthday 🎉🎁🥂
The perfect type of birthday in my opinion!
I was at TB's talk at Southwark Cathedral, too! I'm from the US and was visiting the UK for two weeks. Pre-trip, I googled what was going on in London and was lucky enough to come across a notice for her talk so of course I booked a ticket. What a thrill, TB was wonderful, as was Hodge the cat, making his attempt to steal the show. I'm like you when waiting for an autograph, I felt quite tongue-tied when it was my turn. 🙂 (And I do believe that I remember seeing you there, though I didn't recognize you at the time!)
I've been a Zatchel's fan for years and have three of their bags. Thanks for showing the new style, I love it and might just use your discount code for one... but what color??
I'm absolutely in favour of the birthday week and the birthday month. I also never want a party of anything similar, I just want to be doing doings and having experiences that align with my passions. Virginia Woolf geekery incoming. I treated myself this year for my birthday, by buying a first edition copy of The Waves by Virginia Woolf, which is my favourite novel of hers, and my favourite book of all time. It was of course printed by The Hogarth Press, bound in purple. No dust jacket though because that would have increased the cost substantially.
Happy Birthday, Claire!!!! 📚🎉🥳
Absolutely love your necklace but gotta say your hubby is right...probably not the best piece of jewellery to wear on one's wedding day! 😅
And I'll give you birthday bubbles instead!!! 🫧🎂🫧☺💕

Fab video. Lovely to see a person feeling out over their passions.
On an unrelated topic, are your trailing plants real or fake? ❤
Thank you! 100% fake from Ikea - a symptom of having two cats who will eat anything and everything!
@@Claire_Fenby I also meant to say geeking out not feeling out. Auto correct is a pain. X
