Don’t want to make it sound like a request but if you’re ever up for it I’d really appreciate your thoughts on the new Agatha Christie Marple edition. The 12 essays by 12 authors
I’m so glad that you’re doing these on haul videos! Though it’s very hard to let go of things, knowing that someone else might appreciate it definitely helps. Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video and all the other ones! xx❤📚📖🫖
Just recently discovered your channel and really loving it! I've been watching a lot of your older videos too and finding great history recommendations. Thanks so much. This month became my first Tudortember and I'm really on a Tudor kick right now. I'm reading Nicola Tallis' biography of Margaret Beaufort, Innocent Traitor by Alison Weir, and The Boleyn King by Laura Andersen - that one is alternative history and really fun so far. I also read this month a new biography of Anne Boleyn called Thorns, Lust and Glory: the Betrayal of Anne Boleyn, have you read it at all? It focuses a lot on her time at the French court and is an interesting take.
i do admire (and am envious of!) your ability to efficiently sort through and pass forward your surplus 7 books on a regular basis. I have tried following your example recently but could only manage 3! At least I've started though. Now 3 will have to be my lucky number. Love to Pup pup.
American here. Never heard of a chip butty but there is a restaurant chain in my state of Pennsylvania that has popular sandwiches that are basically that but with deli meat, cheese, and tomato in addition to the chips (which we call fries). I do however put crisps on my sandwiches, particularly on peanut butter sandwiches to add some crunch and saltiness, although I don’t think that’s common here.
I like how you read a whole series for TudorTember, and I like how this series sounds. I'm not familiar with the history of these particular people. I'd say I have very surface level knowledge of Tudor history in general, but I do love finding fictional Tudor books that are easy to get into.
Thank you. Loved this video especially as I’ve been reading Simon Haisells #Wolfcrawl slow read of Hilary Mantel’s trilogy and I’m now into all things Tudor. Thanks Lil. Wonderful as always ❤
Just starting to dip my toes into British History. With so many Edwards, Richards, Marys and Elizabeths, I will surely never get it straight! But still finding it fascinating thanks to Alison Weir 👏 Thank You for Tudor-tember!
Another fact is although he was a minor, Edward is the first Protestant ruler of England. Some think it was his father but as we know Henry died a Catholic, he just didn't want the Pope dictating to him
Thanks Lil 🌺 Always important facts to note as Edward and his reign kinda gets forgotten about at times. Yes it was sad Edward died young but I think England was spared what could've turned out to be the Protestant version of Mary. That goes for Jane Grey also. Both her and Edward seemed very cold for ones so young. Edward could've been a tyrant like his father. I think it's a shame though that we really don't get any historical fiction books from Edwards POV. Thought Alison Weir may have wrote one in her Tudor Rose series but no.......
I wanna get some Sophie Costello and see if I like her stuff for a cosy read. I gasped when you got rid of Country Diary of an Edwardian lady but if you don't read it then no need to keep hold of it.
I admire your iron-willed discipline in un-hauling books. I am quite the opposite. I find it very difficult to un-haul books and, if I do, it's only because I have somehow accumulated multiple copies of the same book or I have an edition I like better. My space-challenged apartment and sagging bookshelves wish it were not so! 😄
😊I love watching your unhaul videos. I have the same problem with Non Fiction. I rarely re-read them but sometimes feel I need to keep them in case I want to refer back to them (which never happens!)
To answer your question about Unhauls - yes do keep doing them please. They are quite interesting and relaxing to watch in a way as you are doing the work, making the decisions 😉
