    It was very endearing to hear you talk about your introversion. I like to think of booktube as a rabble of mice; a great frictionless group of loners🤣

      Yes, we can all talk to the camera and interact on comments... but in person? Please no. LOL 😆

    When you said Anne Shirley because you wouldn’t have to do much of the talking I felt that. 😂

    An extrovert is needed for most social situations for me, thankfully hubby fulfills that role for me.

    • @insearchofwonder

      Yes! My hubby does, too. But he also wanders (ADHD) so I can't always count on him being right there next to me. 😂

    Thank you so much for the tag, and I'll definitely do it soon. You have mentioned Wired Love before, and I added it to my TBR list while watching your video. Have a great day, Anne. 💕

    I loved your answers! I don’t know all five books I’d choose to be on in Island with. But two for sure would be The Bible and Anne of Green Gables. I still remember when I read Safely Home for the first time. It moved me so much. I cried for 30 minutes after finishing it.

    • @insearchofwonder
      @insearchofwonder  15 днів тому +1

      Yes, that book made me cry so hard. Anne of GG would be a great book to have on an island.

    I’m so glad you did the tag! It was very fun to hear your answers. And I really want to read Wired Love after hearing you talk about it! I had never heard of it before. 😊

      It's such a fun book. Doesn't read like a classic at all. I need to revisit it!

    I also could really not enjoy Before the Coffee Gets Cold. I know so many people love it, but it just wasn't for me. I would love a dinner party with Anne!

    I'll be interested in your thoughts of War and Peace when you do get to it. It's actually very readable. And the longest chapter is 11 pages, so you always feel like you're making great progress by finishing a few chapters.

    • @insearchofwonder
      @insearchofwonder  9 днів тому +1

      Oh, short chapters would make it feel more doable!

    • @CourtneyReads
      @CourtneyReads 9 днів тому +1

      @@insearchofwonder yes, definitely! And there are 365 chapters, so you could technically do it a chapter a day for a year. That wouldn't be my recommendation, but it could be done!

    I would be the same way when picking my 5 books... I wouldn't necessarily pick my top 5 favorite... Have to think long term here... But yes the Bible would be my first choice.
