      @insense ??? This seems like a very negative comment. English literature refers to literature WRITTEN in the language of English, which American books are. Hence why of mice and men and other novels are often read within them. Even if you’re talking about CLASSICAL English literature
      Italian, Greek and American books are all accepted in the canon

    One cool thing about East of Eden is the allusion of good and evil with names! All “A” names were examples of good and “C” names were examples of evil. (Representing Cain and Abel in Genesis of the Bible. Cain slayed his brother Abel and was cursed and outcast from the Garden of Eden. Hence “east” of Eden.) It’s definitely my favorite Steinbeck novel and I just recently reread it. 🥰

    I remember reading “East of Eden” when I was fourteen, (so, like, five years ago), just because I was obsessed (at the time) with James Dean (he was Cal in the movie adaptation of the book). I started reading it without expectations and completely unaware of how amazingly written the story was, but when I finished it I was completely in love with the beautiful way it was built. This is a must, in my opinion, for every book lover! (I’m really sorry for all the mistakes that I’m sure I made in this comment, but English is not my mother language)

    Honestly, maybe because I'm like 13 years her senior, but I had *no* idea who Emma Chamberlain was. I came to know about her through the Met Gala and LOVED her interaction with Hailey Baldwin. I tried watching her vids yet couldn't find them relatable, or intriguing, but she's adorable.

    would love vids about reading an author’s full body of work toni morrison, ursula le guin, etc. and a guide on where to start cause i sometimes get intimidated when a writer has more than like 5/6 books and don’t know which one to start with 🤣 but your rec is the only one i trust haha

    maybe you've already shared it but i think it would be cool to see how you annotate books for yourself (i.e. not in an i-have-to-write-an-essay-about-this way). i'm still trying to find a system that works for me and it's always fun to see how other people do it :)
