I love how much your reading taste has transformed. I love that you're reaching out. Also, please do another preorder for the 1st spine breaker shirt. 🙏
As a library worker who must answer to a book preservation staff, I am not allowed to be a spine breaker but I would totally wear that shirt off the clock, I hope to get in on the next run!
For the love of all that is holy plz don't retire the spine breaker shirt. It's a great design and I want one so bad. I missed the preorder and I will die a little inside if that was my only crack at it 😂 , can't wait to see the new design. Your killing it sir. 🎉
Hi Nick i just found you and i love everything!!! Your book taste,your bookshelfs and desk area,very inspiring🫖🍵🕯📚and i love your tshirt!!! Warm hugs coming your way from Sweden
Hey Nick - so glad you’re reading! I haven’t yet read The Things They Carried, but I’m pretty sure it’s a collection of fictional short stories that are interconnected and not nonfiction .😊👍
roadhouse: oh we almost started that, but went for the first episode of the 3 body problem on Netflix... it was amazing, and now I need to get thru the book before we continue with it for sure!
Not sure if you’ve been to the area before, but you’ll be within a block of two bookstores (one of them used) during the market on Saturday! Hoping to make it down to get some yarn and see what other cool stuff is there.
Sword of Kaigen was a great read. You'd expect it to be about one thing and then it takes a bit of a turn (at least for me it did) still a wonderful and beautifully written book. I don't have it physically but that cover actually looks amazing, might have to pick it up and reread it!
Hello! Nooo way! You are officially the first person I've found in the same city as me that also does RU-vid! I am a planty channel, but have recently decided to start incorporating bookish content as well! .. Also, I had no idea about Witly.. I was looking at places in Toronto haha
Hi Nick, is there any way to still order a spine breaker shirt?! I would love to order one!! I couldn’t find a link in the description and this is the first time I have heard about it. I feel like I’m missing out! I just recently started watching your channel and love the vibes !
I literally just accidentally broke the spine of the mass market paperback I'm reading (The Eyes of The Dragon by Stephen King), and I was SO bummed, as a non spinebreaker, but I must admit, it did make it easier to hold...
Since you're dipping your toes into non fiction some more, I highly recommend "Night" by Elie Wiesel It's the true account of his experience surviving the Holocaust, and it's super eye opening and well written
Major suggestion: try crime and punishment, I’d say before brothers Karamazov. It’s known as the first psychological thriller, I think it’d be right up your alley. It’s my personal favorite Dostoevsky
ducks: have u seen the "place duck here" lil target shaped like cup holder thing people attach to the mirrors? theyre cute! we've had a few jeeps, but moved over to the broncos. and now we're on bronco #3 cause we're crazy.
photos: yaaaay wedding season! I tried it. I cant handle the stress of crazy guests and people wanting me to change the color of their sisters faces in every photo because she ran out of her foundation and had to get a new one that made her look crazy orange in the pics. um... you want me to edit her face in like 350 photos? no. lol we just got our fuji x100vi in from ADORAMA in nyc,.... aaaaaand.... I dunno. I still love the form factor I remember from my original x100, but I feel like the computer brain is the same slow machine it was 10 years ago or however long ago it was. like.. its SLOW. taking the cap off, and going to take a photo of something you see, and its like a full 3 seconds for the lcd screen to adjust and show you the scene properly exposed. its like... what? this is $1600??? it may be returned to make someone else down the list very happy. lol. we have another on order from them in black but its still backordered. may cancel? shrug.
I'm new to your channel and I am blown away with your growth in just doing this a few months. Love to have you come on my channel some time. You are exceptional at the conversational style of your content. Kudos & Cheers! I've never seen a channel grow that fast (unless I'm looking in the wrong places!)
history: have you watched 'triumphal reads" he's big into history, and also has big arms. lol. maybe its a history guy thing? do you get a free gym membership with every history book purchase..? 🤔
