Your haircut looks great!

@AnneEWilliamson Год назад

Thanks, Mom! ❤

Your haircut looks great! Egypt's Golden Couple sounds interesting! I Just rewatched The Mummy recently! It's so good!

@AnneEWilliamson Год назад

Thank you! Actually, Colleen Darnell (one of the authors of Egypt's Golden Couple) did a video on RU-vid where she broke down how historically accurate The Mummy was. It was great!

I have been wanting to read The Betrothed! I stayed away from the spoiler section of your video but am very intrigued by your thoughts so far! I think I might make a summer project of reading it.

@AnneEWilliamson Год назад

It's such a great book! Though a bit challenging to read. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on it if you read it!

Girl you are ON IT!! I'm sooooo behind ugh. Also love the haircut!! I got one too lol! I've always wondered what play the March sisters were reenacting!!

@AnneEWilliamson Год назад

Ha, that's okay. Nothing wrong with being behind. And thank you!

Man I was waiting for your updates as reminders and i got confused on which week it was!🙈😂 So I was waiting to reread The cat of Bubastes by G. A. Henry. One of my favorites of his! But that’s fine I will just hurry and finish my Italy book (which is sadly hard to get through so far!😅), then I need to read the cat of bubastes & for Yemen I am reading The Monk of Mokha!❤ I am currently completely immersed in the world of War and Peace, which is making it a trifle hard to start anything new!😅🤭 I loved watching the video Anne!❤

@AnneEWilliamson Год назад

Gosh, so much reading, so little time! And War and Peace definitely gives you a book hangover after finishing it, lol. Thank you!

@JoelleGrace Год назад

@@AnneEWilliamson Exactly!😅 I am making steady progress though, halfway through War and peace!😍 It is so good! It helps that two of the books on that list are audiobooks. Though I always feel like they don’t quite count in my books. 🤭 I prefer books but I am really trying to not buy extra books so audiobooks it is. And I must say BBC does an excellent job! I absolutely love their productions!😍

Great to hear about your Italy and Egypt reads. My historical romance book set in Italy went horribly wrong and I ended up DNFing it, so back to square one for me on that country! 😂 I’m currently reading one set in Japan and looking forward to starting my Yemen book soon! 😊📚

@AnneEWilliamson Год назад

That's too bad. I suppose not every book will be a winner, but I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the books set in Japan and Yemen!

Just finding your channel via my endless quest to find more Booktubers to watch. (As if I don't already have enough. I am starting to think I need professional help.) I love the idea of reading around the world! I'm broke and can never afford to travel, so the idea appeals to me.

@AnneEWilliamson Год назад

Ha, thank you! And I know how you feel. I watch too many Booktube channels and there's never enough time! And I think that's what appeals to me about books set around the world too. I feel like I can travel without spending so much money.

I think I would actually really like The Betrothed for the Catholic lens. Haha Though not Catholic myself, it would be a more "accurate" portrayal from a personal experience of that time. And Catholic or not, Catholicism during this time in history is incredibly fascinating and integral in the development of the modern Western world.

@AnneEWilliamson Год назад

I think you would enjoy The Betrothed! Even if just for an examination of how plagues effect society or the depth of the characters. It's such an interesting book!
