I already appreciate you so much and when I see you sharing ceasefire protests for Palestine, my appreciation just went through the roof. ❤ “The Door” sounds really interesting, going to check that out!
I've been enjoying your beautifully relatable and healing content for a couple years now, and rarely comment. But I just have to say thank you, thank you, mil gracias for standing with Palestine ❤
Thank you for speaking out 🇵🇸 Also, love the book content as per usual haha 📚 It’s cool to see someone approaching reading in a similar way as me and prioritizing enjoyment even in a reading challenge context, this video added a few books to my TBR ☀️ Excited to read The Door next :)
Thank you for making those videos🫶🏼 and speaking up🇵🇸! Can you please share more books about friendship/ female friendships? Would love to hear your recommendations xx
Been a new follower after YT happily used its algorithm on me, and so grateful for having found your channel. Been watching your vlogs in reverse order and today’s vlog and your voice being so clear and human on 🇵🇸 really made me emotional. Thank you, Nina!
🇦🇪 if we can't be free to support 'good' then are we silenced to support evil? We need to do whatever we can however we can to support this cause stand united with u😊
so so glad you found Magda Szabó!!! She is one of my favourite novelists of all time. I wholeheartedly recommend Abigail by her, the story fundamentally changed me and my perspective of girlhood all those years ago. one of my favourite quotes from her: "Az irodalom nem manikűrkészlet. Az irodalom kard. Harcos lettem, amikor író lettem." (Literature is not a manicure kit. Literature is a sword. When I started writing, I became a warrior.)
I know you have many books on your list but since you mentioned female friendships I have to recommend Dear Thief by Samantha Harvey! It’s written as a series of letters to an old friend and the story unfolds throughout. I found it captivating, and a great retrospect on friendship between women and a contemplation & reverence to the consequences of time. Dreamy, surreal, and almost sharp & biting at moments. Not a long book either :)
Nina I am so so excited for you to read Magda Szabó! she’s an absolute gem from my country (Hungary), one of my fav writers of all time. hope you’ll like it! good luck for your reading challenge 💫

oh my goodness, Nina!! I'm also recovering from a Dark Forest induced reading slump! Such a major disappointment after the Three Body Problem. I hope your November reading treats you better!
I read three body problem per your rec and loved it until the last chapter where I feel like I understood nothing 😂 but still it was a great book. Can’t wait to check out The Door and I’m so happy you’re reading Tomorrow x3 - it’s one of my absolute faves
Loved watching this! And curious what you think of the door. I had a really special experience reading it and I am not sure if I like it or not but it stayed with me for a while, for sure

I didn’t expect anything less from Nina but idk for some reason I just have stopped to not get disappointed in people and influencers that I love but Nina 🙇🏻♀️ you are a gorgeous human thank you so gorgeous and bold and the best can we be friend 😢🫶🏻
Hola Nina! De casualidad tienes listados de los libros que lees? O al menos los que has leído este año? I've been taking notes of them cuando los muestras peroo una listita creo que la agradeceríamos todos.
Nina i love your videos!!! No matter if you share books,cook or bake something yummy, going on solo dates or errands... You make my day!!! Have you read these books? "The house in the cerulian sea" TJ klune. " Jane eyre" Charlotte Bronte. "Eat,pray,love" Elizabeth Gilbert. Mary oliver. "Taste" Stanley Tucci. "The very secret society of irregular witches" Sangu Mandanna?
The murders that occurred on October 7 are Israel’s fault. What Hamas did was horrible but was a response to years of horrific genocide and oppression from the Israeli government. It doesn’t make it okay, but it does mean the blame should rest with what Israel has done over the past 70+ years. That’s what being pro-Palestine means, it’s also standing in solidarity with the Israeli people who have been murdered because Israel continues to pursue an apartheid state
HAMAS isn't Palestine. And to be fair: Hamas was largely funded by the so-called state of Isreal (more like Settler Colony) in its beginnings to suppress other movements. And yes, Hamas is a terror organization, so as heartbreaking as it is, we are expecting terror from them. But Israel behaves like a terror organization, but calls itself a democracy and occupies land?
is educating over a topic means scrolling over a few horror tiktoks? no hate to no one but a true knowledge comes from experiencing something, not from reading:) as an Israeli living in Israel, I don’t own the right to have such a strict opinion about any topic in Australia/ New Zealand, simply because I’ve never been there. I welcome you with an open heart to my country and home so you can experience what Israel and the conflict between us and the Palestinians is truly like.
@@avigailpichadze3521your country and your home used to be Palestinians home. Look at what your Israeli people are doing in the West Bank right now and tell me why this is not colonization. And before you speak about antisemitism (cus that’s about the response you get from Israeli people when you go against their views), My grandfather was in a concentration camp as a soldier in the ex Yugoslavia fighting as a partisan. and his friend died next to him shot in the head.
Oh I see that you’re totally ok with what Hamas did to Israel people especially kids and women. Smh. What is Israel supposed to do, not defend themselves?
1. Hamas was largely funded by Israel in its beginnings to suppress other movements in Palestine. 2. HAMAS isn't Palestine. 3. Israel is doing harm on a totally different level at the moment. 4. Israel (which the UN recognizes as a state, even though that should be revoked in my opinion) calls itself a democracy and a state. We expect different things from a state than from a terror organisation, don't we? 5. Israel basically is and has been terror organisation over the last few decades. They killed over 7000 civilians since the 7th of October!
Nobody thinks that what Hamas did was good but you can’t pretend that that was an isolated incident with no precedent. Gaza has been under a military blockade for the past 17 years. Don’t negate history. And how many deaths in Gaza will it take til you feel satisfied that you’ve achieved defence, or vengeance, or whatever it is that is driving this bloodlust? If you need to obliterate and starve 2.3 million people in an open air prison, half of which are children, to feel safe and secure then you might need to reassess your idea of safety because it is deeply flawed.
