    “Junji Ito is an artist. His excellence can never be summed up in words.”- that’s what my friend said to me when she introduced me to his work. I can definitely say that she is correct. Glad to see your doing good Chloe 😌.

    I recently finished Starfish and also loved the connection between what she was painting and what happened in the chapters. The description of the art reminded me of Qinni and her art style.

    As a person who struggles with mental health, I can't imagine having a job like UA-cam where you have to be "on" and in character when going through a tough time. Glad you're taking a break. I mean, you're doing great, but the heaviness of your spirit is tangible here. Take care 💙

    I recently picked up Fullmetal Alchemist bc of you and it’s a new favorite!! Just finished volume 5 and I can’t wait to continue on. I highly recommend My Hero Academia, if you love the Elric brothers you’ll adore all the characters in MHA!! It’s my comfort read💖

    So many good reads in this video! I'm looking forward to reading My Dark Vanessa after your review. It'll be super triggering for me personally, but I feel like it's an extremely important read. Definitely take all the time you need to take care of yourself. I've had to take some time to get my mental health back on track as well, so you're not alone. Sending you love

    My favourite book of 2020 was Daisy Jones & the Six!
    I also read Get a Life Chloe Brown too and LOVED THAT! I'm looking forward to reading Take a Hint Dani Brown, soon!

  • @Amyduckie
    @Amyduckie 3 роки тому

    Ooooo, that was hard! My faves would probably be The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune or The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers. They blew my mind. Starsight by Brandon Sanderson comes very close.
    Also, this video finally convinced me to put The Beautiful on my wishlist, so thank you!
    Thinking of you. Please don’t feel bad or anything that you’re not posting as much, I’m so sad to hear things have been tough for you. We’ll be here when you’re ready. ❤️

    Okay pause i finished reading the beautiful literally 10 minutes ago and logged onto UA-cam to go to your account so I can rewatch the vlogs you made while reading it just to see you posted a new video so of course I had to press on it just to see you put it on your 2020 favorites list. Wow the universe works in mysterious ways

    I'm so glad you included No Longer Human on this list. If you're thinking of reading the original/translated version I'd suggest looking up the author's life. No Longer Human was the last book Osamu Dazai published and reflects some portions of his own life. His life story is a bit heavy but I think its worth looking into before reading the book. I hope everyone is doing wel!

    The jewellery is super cute I would most likely buy 1 of the ones that Chloe has. I just want to know if you can shower with the jewellery because sometimes I forget to take off necklaces when I’m about to shower and I say “oops” after I’ve showered. Then if it’s a necklace that tarnishes then it oxidised because I forgot to take it off.

    I love this! I ordered Bunny just now.
    There is a book I saw on Amazon, YA, that I thought I saved to my list but I can't find it. The plot was basically there are three princes who compete in a tournament for the crown, and every time, one girl gets sacrificed as the end challenge. I vaguely remember from the book description that a girl in a higher class saves the girl and then becomes the target herself, and she has to try to save herself. Does anyone know the name of this book?!
