I love it when you make actual booktube content (your funny stuff is great too). You're always reading stuff that I don't see anyone else talking about. And "don't read a book you don't want to" is honestly amazing advice. I know I've historically read books that I 'should' read rather than what I want.
You're so good at acting, almost convinced me you're actually a booktuber! Honestly though, got some interesting books to add on my to-read list from this video :)
I love authors that de-mystify writing. People like Brandon Sanderson and Joe Abercrombie (one of my favorites) show and tell that regular guys can write.
I love that whenever I see you posted something it could be anything, except the thing I suspect the most. Like I subscribed for book tube stuff, stayed for the funny stuff, and expected this to be another funny skit, but got blindsided by what I subscribed for.
I have never read any noir books but now you have me interested in dabbling in the genre. Also, your videos are some of the funniest skits I have seen in a minute.
Thanks for the recommendations. Unless this is a meme? Glad to see you reading a VARIETY of books. That is a rarity in this space where everyone is too specific. The greatest thing I ever did with reading is branching out.
I like to imagine a connected universe between all of these videos, and I'm not convinced this "booktuber" character isn't just an alter ego of a certain water connoisseur...
i love your book videos, your videos about sanderson inspired me to start reading again and i’m halfway through my second sanderson book now and can’t put it down :)
I started Highsmith with Ripley, and I've never seen anybody get inside the head of a psychopath like that. It's amazing. Check out Lawrence Block's Scudder P.I. books. They are amazing, too.
I have read one book this year. “The Dog Stars”. I have several more waiting - but I’ve been wasting all my time watching The Man and the Thing He’s tugging around.
I was ready to come up with some funny comment to go with the topic of your video, but then this just ended up being a nice round up of stuff! I don’t really know anything about any of these, but I’m glad you enjoyed some of them!
Love these videos. Please make more if you have the time! Also Glen Cook is pretty straight to the point with the way he writes. I don't k ow many authors that still write that way
Soooo…. The book “Hit Man” is similar to “Barry”. And it’s written by Lawrence Block? Larry Block?? That can’t be a coincidence can it? Also, now I need to read that book. I love “Barry”.
You’re the only “booktuber” who’s content I enjoy tbh. As a 27 year old dude, seems like the book tube is catered to young women, at least the popular ones that are recommended. Which I’m not hating on but it’s nice to see someone more like myself who enjoys reading and gives recommendations that aren’t just on whatever books are trending at the moment on good reads or tik tok
Hey I think you would really dig the novels of Fuminori Nakamura. Japanese crime that is terse and brutal. The Gun, The Thief or his newest, My Annihilation are all excellent
I haven't read him in years but Block is great. It's surprising he gets so little attention these days -- he's very good, very prolific, and was a big bestseller in the 80s and 90s. The Matt Scudder and Bernie Rhodenbarr series are both worth your time. For French noir, I recommend Jean-Claude Izzo - American suspense meets Feench existentialism, sort of.
That Hitman story you talked about really reminded me of a short story in Cixin Liu's The Wandering Earth short story collection. Not gonna go too much into detail, but similar story beats, only in a scifi. Would make a really good episode of Love, Death & Robots.
I recommended the Silent Patient to my parents who both read it. They then tried to have a conversation about the book with me and I had to explain that I hadn't read it 😂 also, having just finished The Mad and the Bad is definitely blunt, brutal, bloody, all of the b's

Holding them for friend!", "don't lie! These are autographed and dedicated to: Man Carrying Thing!", doesn't know what to say, campfire blaze ad, gets arrested, title card: 6 years later, to be continued....??, no, no it won't be... And that's the story of how I met your mother...
He was making that malicious face right at the end of the video. I was so sure he was gonna make a comment about my life being an untold joke or something
*Spoilers for The Silent Patient:* Actually some booktubers like booksandlala didn't even realized that the twist in The Silent Patient was supposed to be a twist because they somehow realized from the beginning that the timelines were different. So I think the author actually did a great job.
If you ever want to read The Godfather of cartel books, check out Power of the Dog by Don Winslow. I hate when people talk about “genre” books as if they can’t be really well written. Well Don Winslow is an excellent writer than will make the literary fiction snob take a second look. It’s part of a trilogy. Highly recommended.
Don't let this dude fool ya - he doesn't need to roll his eyes and pretend he doesn't remember the name of the bookstore he goes to - upon death expiration he knows the bookstore he frequents - he does, this is true...... this is true................ this is true.

@Telepture lies no,,,
Just started reading Dune, per your recommendation. Great so far!
Thank you for the book recommendations.
Finally a book review. Love it, keep 'em coming.

I started Hit Man because of this and really like it so far. Little over halfway done
nice!
It is a horrifying realisation that the man who makes these sketches might be a smart and educated person.
Soooo…. The book “Hit Man” is similar to “Barry”. And it’s written by Lawrence Block? Larry Block??
That can’t be a coincidence can it? Also, now I need to read that book. I love “Barry”.
Weirdly hilarious or hilariously weird? Either way, great content!
Highsmith’s style can be hard to stomach, even though I love the idea of her books!

I'm liking your booktube content!
Man carrying things feels like the friend who read a pretty cool book and tries to sell it to you
Those who walk away has to be an Ursula LeGuin reference? Or is that a common phase I've never heard and I'm a big dumb?
Love this!!
I enjoy this channel.
I'm glad that you can actually talk about things you like instead of being 100% irony poisoned. 90% irony poisoning for the win.

You say the Hitman (Lawrence Block) book reminded you of Barry, which is funny bc Barry changed his acting name to Barry Block.
holy shit i didn't even realize that. that's awesome
This reminds me so much of Chris Stuckmann.
Stumbled into Block? You could almost say that was . . . a stumbling block.
You're the best.
Sounds like Lawrence Block might want to consider a lawsuit against the JOHN WICK franchise.
Hitman seems super interesting
Thank you for the recommendation!
