“This book basically changed me as a person” ummm say less I am picking Babel up ❤️❤️❤️📚

@fictionalfates Год назад

YES i cannot wait for you to experience it too!

@heyimsasa Год назад

oh my god, okay small thing: i love it when you can tell the people in others' lives are influencing them when they include little things into their speech patterns (ex: friends including phrases they frequently hear from friends). i noticed you started saying "in and of itself" more which is what ellias does a lot LOL it's cuuute! 😊💖

@erinsbooks Год назад

The Priory of the Orange Tree is stunning. I just read it a couple weeks ago. Carrie Soto is Back is on my TBR; just waiting for my library to come into my library same now with Babel.

@bon3999 Год назад

afterlove is my favourite book ever 😭😭😭 first sapphic book i ever read and was recommended to me by my now girlfriend soooo

@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm Год назад

Okay stop it, the locker is so cute???! How did all of that fit in there..

@Taydelphia Год назад

Last week, I ordered Babel and it will arrive sometime next week! 🥰

@orionartemis3175 Год назад

You're literally like my favourite booktuber. Your vibe and everything is just topnotch and so chill and you make me wanna be productive

@fictionalfates Год назад

omg you’re so kind, thank you so much!!

@calebthomas7227 Год назад

The Book Eaters was the best debut I have picked up this year! I LOVED it.

@craftyreads Год назад

This has been the highlight of my day, I’ve been waiting for you to upload!! 🙌🏼

@mmeashh Год назад

take a shot every time joel says “in it of itself”

@li3703 Год назад

haven't watched in ages and I'm honestly so excited

@Manonouhouh Год назад

Your videos are my dose of serotonin🌞

@maudhaugland5822 Год назад

The Priory of the Orange Tree is big, but also really fast paced so it didn't take me that long to read actually! And lonely Castle in the Mirror was such a wonderful book as well 💛

@luvxli6333 Год назад

im literally so excited for babel im going to meet rfkuang later this month ahhh, also alchemy of souls I can't wait for the next episode TT

@ruth1527 Год назад

I'M SO EXCITED FOR BABEL

@The7Girlie Год назад

Already been wanting to read Babel and Book Eaters and you just convinced me 100%! Also I see the Avatar shirt hehe 👀

@maddie9545 Год назад

If you’re interested in a graphic novel written and translated by a woman I highly recommend Grass by Keum Suk Gendry-Kim translated by Janet Hong. It’s the story of a Korean woman who was taken by the Japanese Imperial Army and forced into sexual slavery. It’s a very difficult read which I implore everyone to look up the trigger warnings for but it is also an important read and exceptional

@fictionalfates Год назад

thank you so much for the recommendation and the warning about triggers, it’s much appreciated! ♥️

If you want to read some more SFF for Women in Translation Month, then I recommend "The Way Spring Arrives and Other Stories" edited and collected by Yu Chen and Regina Kanyu Wang, a collection of Chinese SFF in translation by female and nonbinary writers and translators (R.F. Kuang is included). I just finished reading this via audiobook and thoroughly enjoyed the short stories and learned about translating these stories from Chinese to English and being a translator in general. Not gonna lie, since you read Babel I think you would enjoy this collection if you are really curious about translation in general. Cannot to watch your The Priory of the Orange Tree reading vlog and secret TBRs!! *sidenote: cannot wait to see which Babel editions you preordered ;)

@lollydolly4590 Год назад

I am so psyched to read Babel

@TheSassyLibraryFox Год назад

I've seen "Paper Girls" all over my feed and I'm so curious about it. You read so many interesting books in June & July. Most of them are on my TBR already and I just added the rest. *lol*

@finreads Год назад

I ended up picking up priory of the orange tree a little while ago mostly because this cute guy working at the book store told me I should get it HAHA but I’m also very intrigued to read it, very excited to see ur thoughts on it :))

@radiosilence3657 Год назад

Ayo! Sorry I'm late! Just wanted to say that I love your energy in this video, Joel! I can't really explain it, but you look so radiant!

@seawitch8219 Год назад

Good time to read Priory since Samantha Shannon announced a prequel book that is supposed to come out next year.

@deathsheadhawkmoths Год назад

my brother just lent me paper girls!! i need to finish neverwhere by neil gaiman before i get started on it

@Khushi_Kishore Год назад

I really enjoyed Lonely castle in the mirror! Can’t wait to hear your thoughts on it!!

@luiye4600 Год назад

Hi Joel I absolutely love your videos and love your recommendations

@raymondhodgson1190 Год назад

Might try and read "Whereabouts" by Jhumpa Lahiri. It was originally written and published in Italian and translated by Lahiri into English. It's short and moody and was very interesting to read as the author was originally an English speaker / writer who had great success and she just decided to become fluent in Italian, and this is her first Italian novel.

@ellenonoda Год назад

I already have Babel pre-ordered even though I never read the Poppy War Trilogy 😂 but I’ve heard so many good things that I couldn’t resist, I’m discovering I like dark academia after reading The Atlas Six so I’m really excited for this release! If I like it I’ll go read the Poppy War Trilogy! Thanks for a wonderful video!

@RaetheSaint Год назад

Just a heads up that a lot of Latinx creators have been calling out TJR for harmful stereotypes used in The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and are worried that she’s writing another Latinx MC and may keep using harmful stereotypes and bad rep

@ruth1527 Год назад

I loved reading The book eaters very happy to received an ARC for it. Its simply amazing definitely worth preordering

@readingwarlock Год назад

Ooh for a translated work, 1st title that came to mind was The Vegetarian by Han Kang and translated by Deborah Smith 😊

@erisaphrodite Год назад

I wanna read Babel so badly!

@rubyyro Год назад

I do hope you get to talk about those shortlisted YA titles sometime in the future! I'm really interested in your thoughts. I've heard of several of them, but I've only read Afterlove by Tanya Byrne and lets just say it was the only 5 star read I had during my Pride Month read-a-thon. So especially interested in your thoughts on that one.

@ewaldkostergunnsisko3491 Год назад

So I am not the only one who wants more of Lance Reddick's Wesker. Haven't been reading much lately(too hot to focus) but I have been watching The Sandman and Bastard! Heavy Metal, Dark Fantasy. Also the movies Prey, Day Shift, Incantation and Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles the movie.

@maryamjuma1704 Год назад

i'm reading the tteokbokki book right now!

@jazzmineanderson6330 Год назад

I love Attorney Woo I recommend it

@jeannareadsbooks8475 Год назад

For Women in Translation month, try Catch the Rabbit by Lana Bastasic, translated by the author. It follows 2 friends who come back together after not speaking for 12 years as they go on a roadtrip because they've heard news that one of their brothers who dissappeared during the Bosnian war. Definitely unhinged women vibes ( one of them changes her tampon in a moving car and throws it out the window and doesn't even wipe her hands afterwards) but its written and structured in a very interesting way

@ReadingNymph Год назад

I want to get The Book Eaters and Babel though im waiting till they are in paperback

@themanylivesofciara738 Год назад

The Final Strife is Epic! Also I’m Glad My Mom Died is a 5 star memoir!

@OUTSPOKENWALLFLOWER4444 Год назад

Paper Girls!💕

@romeISdead Год назад

Am I the only one who saw that ad where the women just gaslighted me into thinking something is in my eye?

@Li6doe Год назад

Watched video…… (Adds babel to Amazon basket) ❤️❤️

@caitlina5776 Год назад

Looking forward to checking out Babel! I’m finishing up The Ivory Key by Akshaya Raman right now and am really enjoying it!

@charityyoder9028 Год назад

That book is seriously my favorite surprise this year ! I picked it up on a whim from a library display and don't regret it. Sadly don't see it getting a ton of love - which it absolutely deserves.

@caitlina5776 Год назад

@@charityyoder9028 Yes, I found it through my library too! I just finished it and it was so good, I was fully not expecting that betrayal at the end 👀 Really looking forward to the second one!

@melaniek6714 Год назад

Hi Joel, I saw that you asked a subscriber for Brazilian author suggestions below. I don't know many, but I thought I'd recommend a title from my home country Germany: This house is mine by Doerte Hansen Its been one of the best selling books in Germany in I don't know how many years and its funny, sad, deep, cheeky and loads of other things ;)
