Hello Friends!!!
This past Friday and Saturday was the 24 hour Rory Gilmore and Jess Mariano readathon!!!
I was inspired by the inhabitants of Stars Hollow to change it up this readathon, and turn it into a readathon/crochet-athon! Based one the "Knitathon" the town hosts in season 7, ep. 9!!!
I spent the day listening to 3 wonderful audiobooks, while I crocheted about 20 daisy flower granny squares...because I'm 900 years old! :P
I had so much fun blending my love for reading with my love for crochet! I hope you enjoy this somewhat chaotic vlog!
Best wishes,
Carolyn :)

I have been re-watching Gilmore Girls for the umpteenth time with a friend of mine who has never watched it before and our weekly episode for the week was the basket episode! Also, I adore Wharton. So excited to see that you enjoyed Ethan Frome!

@CarolynMarieReads 2 года назад

Ahhh that's wonderful! :) It's such a great episode! I was so excited by Ethan Frome too! A wonderful and unforgettable read! Best wishes Abigail and happy Gilmore watching :)

Hey Carolyn! I actually think this is one of your best vlogs (I watch them all!) You mixed the reading chatter with the crocheting bits perfectly. Your energy was awesome. I loved watching this one!

@CarolynMarieReads 2 года назад

Thank you so much Ava! I'm incredibly glad you think so! I had a blast filming and editing it, so to know you enjoyed watching it brings me such joy! Best wishes :)

Aw, is anyone on the internet more adorable and wholesome as Carolyn is? I love your videos for many reasons...they are inspiring and comforting to name a couple. Also, there are 3 things we can be sure of in life: death, taxes and Carolyn's neighbors doing the mowing when she's filming lol.

@CarolynMarieReads 2 года назад

That's so sweet of you to say! :) Thank you very much for your kind words!! Oh my gosh hahaha you're so right!!! They're always doing the mowing when I film hahaha! Best wishes Nikki!

Hi Carolyn! I just wanted to comment and say how much I admire your authenticity. This was such a unique vlog but it really shows these sweet/honest parts of your personality and it’s so fun to watch!

I loved the crocheting with audiobooks. This was so cosy 🧶I have been thinking of taking up knitting and doing that with an audiobook sounds so cosy and fun 😊

@lalolanda8458 2 года назад

I've read 'Death in the afternoon' and Ernest passion, knowledge and meticulousity when narrating and discribing the bullfighting world is intoxicating and very insightful, whether you agree with his views (which we have to remember they are of the 1930's). It's a non fiction work, which to be honest todays society can barely read, but man it is full of wisdom. Great video Carolyn.

@alexandrazibritovska870 2 года назад

One of your books you were trying to decide from at 5:10 was Flowers for Algernon...I haven't finished watching but if you didn't choose that book this round, oh Carolyn, you MUST read it! I am in my 40's and read it for the first time last year. It was SO BRILLIANT, so tender, so awwww just everything a book should be! It's why I choose classics over any other genre...PLEASE read it, my sweet bookish friend....you won't regret it. Edith Fromme is another favorite of mine. I read it last year to and fell in love with it. It was my first Fromme and I wasn't expecting to love it as much as I did. Brilliant! Both Flowers and Edith made it to my list of all-time favorites and I've been reading for 30 years!

@CarolynMarieReads 2 года назад

Yes!!! I've heard such wonderful and heartbreaking things about Flowers for Algernon! I'm hoping to read it soon! Very glad to know you recommend it so highly! :) So happy to know you love Ethan Frome too! :)

Haven't read but have seen James Franco's As I Lay Dying and loved it.I was tired just looking at you doing all that crocheting:super stuff!

@CarolynMarieReads 2 года назад

Maybe I should try the film before going back into it. That often helps me when I'm not 100% into a particular story. Glad to know you loved it! Yes hahaha but I had a lot of fun, though my hands did get tired :) Best wishes

@MilenaReads 2 года назад

This was so cosy! I'm so happy you enjoyed Ethan Frome. I'm not sure how I feel about the blurb of the book either, it feels very biased about the story. I think one of the best parts is that the narration makes it so subjective. I'm still not sure how I feel about the characters. I feel like the problem with The Age of Innocence is that the main character is a very boring man 😂 The stories in the little black classics collection is really good too!

@CarolynMarieReads 2 года назад

Thank you so much Milena!! Me too! Right?! I'm glad you agree! Yes, exactly! I agree on all accounts hahaha :) I'll definitely give the little black classics a read!!! Thank you for letting me know! Best wishes

No content!!! No real analysis. I am sure you cannot possibility read all these books and give them a personal interpretation. Crochete, ETF. Also I sent you a DVD of the BBC War and Peace without so much as a thank you..... no better than Clickbait

@CarolynMarieReads 2 года назад

Hi Stephan, I'm sorry you feel that way, it wasn't my intension for this video to come across as clickbait. I do feel I was able to give the books I read my full attention, and I enjoyed each one very much. I did receive the DVD of War and Peace, which I greatly appreciate! I usually send out thank you cards to people who write to me or send something, but since it came from Amazon there was no return address for me to send one to. With that being said, I'm very glad I can thank you now. I hope you're having a lovely day! Best wishes to you, Carolyn :)

@avaroberts4912 2 года назад

Carolyn is just having fun my guy! It's incredible she reads all these books AND still has time to crochet AND films a whole video just for your FREE viewing pleasure. Stay positive!

@zuhraa4171 2 года назад

You should never send people anything if you expect them to make you a thank you video. Not nice.
