HECK 👏🏽 YEAH 👏🏽
Jananie is honestly one of my fav book accounts on here she's such a ray of light and whenever she describes a book she loves I honestly get so persuaded ugh❣❣
Stop you're gonna make me cryy 💓😭💓
HARD AGREEEE!
American Panda is just the book for me. Thank you so much!
I hate poetry but I loved the Poet X! I can't wait to read the other books you suggested.
Yes! Followed your page love these recs! I haven’t read 3 of these. Definitely checking out when simple net rishi. Poet X was so beautiful. One of my faves of last year 💛
Auto correct is so annoying 😒. *Dimple
Yes!!! A Very Large Expanse of Sea is one of my favorite books of all time 💛😭 it's such a beautiful, hardhitting story. I loved your recs!
American Panda is never talked about enough!! I loved Black Enough too!! Amazing recs, thank you so much 🤩🤩🤩
I only found Jananie's channel today and I know im going to love it.
THE POET X was incredible and it hit me hard.
WHEN DIMPLE MET RISHI was one of my favorite books of 2018 for sure.
I need to pick up BLACK ENOUGH asap!
A VERY LARGE EXPANSE OF SEA was so enticing but I left it to the side and never finished it idk why...
AMERICAN PANDA is also on my TBR, im going to be reading it for a Asian readathon in May!
OMG THIS IS SO EXCITING JANANIE! 😱
WE'RE SO EXCITED IT'S HAPPENING 🎉
THANK YOU 💓💓💓
I’m really excited for this series!!
Us too!!!
The Poet X was amazing and honestly, anything Elizabeth Acevedo writes is gold! When Dimple Met Rishi was hilarious!! Yay Jananie! :D And the 'e' in Kekla's name is short instead of long, so it would be pronounced KECK-luh.
All of these are so high on my TBR especially The Poet X! I can’t wait for more videos by you!
Good job , you killed it ! 😊
Im looking forward to your videos!! 💕💕
Omg girrrlll this series is gonna be amazing
I read ‘When dimple met Rishi’ and ‘With the fire on high’ from your suggestion! Amazing!!
Everyheart a door way (the wayward children series) is also wonderful! It has a lot of LGBT rep as well as a lot of cultural rep. It is also fantasy so the cultural differences aren't always the main idea but it also is always the main idea at the same time.
I've amazing things about that series! Great rec!
@@thisstoryaintover it's an absolutely wonderful series. When the first book came out in January me and my librarian fought over who is going to read it first. Seana Seanan McGuire is so good and the whole book series so good. the world building is amazing. if anyone ever asked me what book to read the first thing I recommend is every heard of doorway. 12 out of 10 not only would read again I've read it four times.
For me it’s interesting that literature tend to not be diverse. I’m surrounded for black woman(family reasons), and a lot of trans people(friends reason), so my protagonists tend to be black woman, and trans people tend to show up a lot too, but the themes never are the identity of the characters, the characters are only this, characters.
I don't know about the rest of the books but 'A very large expanse of sea' does NOT represent a Muslim girl. it's all about an all American girl who's about 98% American and 2% Iranian.
