When one door closes, another opens. You've got this Jaime. As for my favourite author, when I was younger I LOVED reading Brian Jacques. He is the author who inspired me to become a writer myself. His Redwall series got me through school as I didn't have a lot of friends. But reading his series and disappearing into that world made everything better. I still often think about those books and I have now encouraged one of my friend's kids to read it and she is very excited about it.
Damn you uploaded just as I was looking for something to watch while I do my assignment! Also wishing you all the best with all that's going on I just know the universe has something amazing in store for you here
So sorry to hear about you job! I'm sure it's been incredibly stressful. Hopefully you will be able to move on to bigger and better things! I have added Jade City to my TBR, it sounds really interesting based on your review. I've seen it around before but I'm definitely the type of book girlie who is attracted to covers first and the covers of this series are very nondescript so I hadn't looked into them 😅
It must be stressful to lose your job, don’t feel sad 😢. I hope everything things works out well for you in the near future 😊. I love watching your videos 🥰 it’s so comforting and i kind of feel calm to be honest since my life is already stressful 😂.
My heart goes out to you. Support and hugs your way from the states ✨♥️ hope you find relief and peace gently through this difficult time. Lavish yourself in all your favorite activities/ things 🥺
Aww Jamie so sorry about your job. When one door closes, something better is definitely on the way for you. Stay positive, sending good vibes your way ❤
I also just lost my job almost two weeks ago. It truly is a terrible experience and I have found so much comfort in books and youtubers like you! Sending you so much love.
I`m sorry to hear about what`s happened. Take your time to rest and breethe if you need it and all the best is yet to come :) Wish you all the best and sending you love and support
Really enjoyed this video! I love Abby Jimenez’s Part of Your World books sooo much that I’m scared to pick up her other books in case they don’t meet those standards. Also, I’m sorry to hear you got laid off but I absolutely believe that better opportunities are coming your way. ❤❤❤
I am so sorry about the laid off girly. Just remember "This or better" Either you'll get what you want OR BETTER. I am sure new beginnings are waiting for you. 💗
I have realized the last few years how some books are just not for me while others hit my soul. There are so many that people i love and respect love that i just dont and that's how different tastes work. Such a fun concept! I cant pick a favorite author! Maybe VE Schwab but there are too many!
I’m having a marathon of your videos this weekend while working, and it’s making the grind so much more enjoyable. Your book recommendations are spot-on! Thanks for all the great content!🥰👍 I know this layoff is rough, but your creativity and drive are seriously inspiring. Keep your head up. I’m sure great things are coming your way soon. You’ve got this!❤
I agree with you I enjoyed the Shadow & Bone trilogy just as much as Six of Crows! The second book in the Shadow & Bone trilogy wasn’t my fav but the third one is really good so I hope you continue the series! ❤
Sending good thoughts and vibes your way 🥰 take the time you need to feel all the feelings! Enjoy lots of cat cuddles and good books to keep your mind off things! 🫶🏼
Aww so sorry to hear the sad news! I have full faith you'll find something new that you'll love! Great video! All time favourite author is kurt vonnegut! The stories are so quirky and they warm my heart up so much!
Aww... so sorry about your job, Jaime 🥺💔 I know God has something far greater than anything you can imagine🤍🤍🤍 God bless you! Praying for you, love you!!🙏🏻🤍
Sorry to hear about the layoff, it must have felt so sudden. I hope you can find something positive out of the whole situation. But it's okay to be sad too! 💜
Hi Jamie 🫂🥺🥹🫂 I'm so sorry about your job. I hope you have the strength and courage to you know, just take the time to rest it off for a bit, take it easy. You'll bounce back in no time, because you're THAT GIRL. Love you!
From your description, I might actually give Shadow and Bone a go!! This is so controversial since everyone loves Six of Crows but I didn't really like it since we got little to no worldbuilding and I didn't care about the characters then the plot was quite basic imo but if these characters gave you more of a connection and there was worldbuilding, I feel like it could be like 3.75 stars or higher for me!! (Which, to me, means above average and good). Edit: Jade City is maybe seeming quite up-my-alley as well tbh!! Great video btw, sorry to hear you got laid off :(( I hope you're doing okay and don't feel too much pressure currently.
Sending you lots of love, I’m sorry to hear about your job.. 🙏🏼 I had smth similar happen to be in the past and it is really stressful to go through that. Stay strong, it will (for real) get better. 🥰
I love this idea. I wish authors would make a list of their favorite authors so we could also check them out too. It’s hard to pick one favorite author… my favorite book is Fahrenheit 451 but that is the only book I’ve read by Ray Bradbury. I would say my current authors that I’m working on reading almost everything they have written are Emily Henry, Abby Jiminez, and Tamora Pierce, Rebecca Ross.
I hope you continue the shadow and bone series and maybe even get to the king of scars duology (these are my absolute favorite characters ever, also the character development in there is REAL ) Grishaverse will forever have my heart ❤️💗🧎🏽♀️
I freaked out when I saw u accept my friend request on Goodreads today 😆. I love your book content so much so I just thought it was the coolest thing 🤍
I hope you continue the Green Bone Saga. Jade City was just okay for me, but Jade Legacy blew my mind and ended up being the best book I have read this year. And I have the Burning God this year >
This is an interesting way to find and try new books to read that may not have been on your radar. I wonder if I would like Jade City, I've been on the fence about it but it sounds good and I loved Six of Crows, though I think that was more for the characters than the mafia aspect. Sorry about the job, its ok to feel sad, this is just a dip in life at the moment things will get better.
Sorry you were laid off. Impressive that you did this video so soon after the layoff. Although I haven't read anything from her in a few years, Yasmine Galenorn is my favorite author. I've read around 40 books from her.
Honestly I don't get why people don't like Shadow and bones compared to Six of crows, But for me personally Shadow and bones is the favorite in Grishaverse. None of her other works in that world hit the same.
It was breaking my heart how your voice cracked when you were talking about getting laid off...I hope find yourself in the mids of this and maybe even something beneficial also comes out of it like you being able to create more content. Keep your head up❤
@@jaimefok 100% Air Awakens series for Elise Kova (my personal favourite and what I think gives you the best experience if you read her other work too) and for Adalyn Grace, Belladonna (again my favourite). I would curation though, it is not for everyone lol, but if you are interested I would love to see what you think of it! :))
I'm sorry for what's happening to you right now 🫂🫂 it's so hard to have a sudden change like that that is also very stress inducing 🫂🫂 Thank you for still giving us those good video 🩷
Incredibly sorry to hear about your job but as cliché as it is, when one door closes, another one opens. I know there is something wonderful in store for you! 🫶🏼
