Station Eleven is one of my top 10 books ever, but yeah, I read it before the pandemic. But your description of Kirsten being someone who is the best of humanity, someone trying to create art and bring joy to people in this really joyless time, making meaning out of a meaningless world...sound like anyone? Thank you for being a Kirsten in our pandemic.

Oh my goodness! So many things I love about this vlog! 1) Seeing your pets! I'm not sure if they've made an appearance, before, but they're adorable. Your kitty is SO pretty! In my opinion, a house is not a home without a kitty cat in it. (We have 2: Lilo and Stitch) 2) That you've named your plants and have so many. I want to have more plants, but I'm so concerned that my cats will destroy them. I have 1 Christmas cactus that was my grandma's. When she passed away, I asked if I could give one of her many plants a new home. Since getting said plant, I've named it Ginny, after my grandma. 3) Your love of historical things!!! All things history give me so much joy!!! Old homes and buildings, old dressers and things like that, letters, ANYTHING with history attached to it 😁...it all makes me giddy. Just knowing what those places or items could have witnessed...So awesome!!!! (I once drove through Pembroke, Ontario, Canada, where there are a lot of century homes along the main drag. I practically had my head out the window, like a pooch, gawking and squealing with excitement when I saw the plaques that said when the houses were built and I have no regrets in regards to my behavior that day. Lmao) We've missed you, Lexi...and now I couldn't love you more. 😍

I still need to read the Midnight Library. I think it will be a five star for me, but I'm putting it off because I'm nervous that I won't love it as much as I want to!

This was such an amazing vlog. Every time I peek into your world I’m inspired to bake, to read, to create! Your discussion about doing the things you love and creating treats for yourself to enhance an experience is something I’ve been doing more and more to push my productivity. It works! As an artist by trade, inspiration starts to become scarce because you’re constantly drawing what other people want you to draw. Thank you for bringing some life back into my world with your positivity and authenticity!

@samanthaaiello 3 года назад

I feel like your vlogs are the perfect treat to start my Sunday! I just made it through the first 60ish pages of Emma last night (while annotating). I’m already loving it so much (annotation helps with some of the outdated language). My edition of the book mentions that Emma was one of Jane Austin’s least favorite books she wrote. I thought that was incredibly interesting, as it’s one of her most popular modern reads. ❤️ This is after DNF’ing a book after 5 pages. I didn’t vibe with the writing style, and I’m trying to get better at moving on from books that don’t click. I know some books will take time to enjoy the plot, but I couldn’t move past the writing style.

@MyAbidingJournal 3 года назад

Just wanted to say I still watch your videos and love every single one; brings me so much joy to see how much you've grown!!! I think you had less than 1,000 when I found you. Also, I got to meet Mandel and have dinner with her through my work, pre-pandemic of course. She's awesome and the book is great, but I do wonder how I'd feel about it reading it now post-2020. Keep up the amazing content Lexi!

I had such a laugh when you were describing Emma. I read it last year and a little way into the book I was trying to describe my feelings about her to my husband. I was telling him how she was sort of annoying and bit of a know-it-all but honestly she had her heart in the right place and even when she was wrong she was willing to take responsibility for when she erred but she was so..... and then I just stopped. And had an epiphany. And then I looked at my husband's face, and saw he had already reached the same conclusion. And I said "Oh, so, like she's me." LOLOL.

I remember I read Station Eleven back in January 2020 when we were just first hearing about COVID (complete coincidence, like I remember being 1/2 way through it the first time I heard about COVID and I was living in Toronto at the time as well), so thinking back on it is honestly so surreal. I think because of that and just like how the story is, that it'll always be a really emotional and special book for me.
