Você é gata 🤩

Beautiful job. I was living in Rio when I came across a dilapidated bookstore and found some Machado de Assis in English…I’ll keep it brief but I found myself/my voice in the nothingness of his witty dark philosophies…I’m embarrassed to say I finally came across Lispector recently and have fallen in love anew. I just bought a one way ticket to Rio just yesterday… You’re wonderful. Keep it up!

How wonderful it is to listen to your passion! I definitely haven't read enough Italian literature in my life. May I ask where you live right now?

I’m so curious. I lived in Roma for a long time. I have a love hate relationship with it, as any long term expat or Roman can understand.

In the Name of the Rose is one of the few books by Eco I haven't read. I should check it out. Aside from the tag, I would recommend Sibilla Aleramo's A Woman. I guess this might fit in with the romance tag, but, no, not really. Anti-romance? Also, Luigi Pirandello. The Late Mattia Pascal is quite good, but definitely read his play, Six Characters in Search of an Author. & I will always suggest Hermann Broch's The Death of Virgil. It is quite dense, but absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the book suggestions, keep up the good work.

Wow, I love this tag!!! Italy is indeed beautiful, in so many respects! I need to read Ovid sometime. And I also love A Room with a View. Hopefully I can find enough books to do this tag. Thanks, Emily!

That is so awesome that you lived in Rome! I’ve never been, but I someday want to visit with my mom (it’s her dream to visit). Hooray for Rebecca! Like Pride and Prejudice, it has one of the most memorable opening lines of any book I’ve read. ❤ Wonderful tag and thank you for tagging me!

Follett the Great!

Listening to Carole King while reading Carole King's memoir in Florence would be magical.

Ciao, Emily! Oh boy! This sounds fun! Always a joy to be considered for one of your Tags 😊. I never did that Family Tree of yours. Oops! I'll have to get to that too. I think you and I have similar opinion about photos. I don't take many. If I do, I don't share many. I consider it my own memory. Since I'm a 90s child, taking photos is not normal. No camera phones 😄. You probably have some amazing photos from your travels 😊. HAPPY READING 📚 ✌️🙂

Ah, yes, I love Umberto Eco (especially his work on semiotics). This is such a fun concept for a video. I am back to Apple on Monday to try &, finally, get my external mic problems fixed, so will be able to do something on this later next week. You already have me thinking. Yes, I also adore Forster & 'Rebecca'. This will be a blast. Thanks for the tag.

Interesting tag. I love your answers. I read You Like It Darker recently. I liked it a lot

The name of the rose is one of my favorite books!! You created a great tag with Daniela! 😻

Great idea for a tag! Going to be discussing A Room with a View on my channel soon. Thanks for the inspiration xo

Great passion for your books Emily. Makes me think of the Monty Python sketch, 'What have the Romans ever done for us?" REG: "All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?" XERXES: "Brought peace." REG: "Oh. Peace? Shut up!" Thanks for the tag!

Happy Friday!

We might be on a similar wavelength, from time to time...? I have just done the Beautiful Book Tag and I picked out a quote a while ago from _Rebecca_ for my commonplace book, 'Happiness is not a possession to be prized. It is a quality of thought, a state of mind. Of course we have our moments of depression but there are other moments to, when time, unmeasured by the clock runs on into eternity… '

We used to listen to Carol King back at college. She has a beautiful _belle_ voice.

Thank you for the tag! 😊 I’m adding it to my list and hoping to get to it before too long! I’ve done the Beauty in Books tag at least so that’s coming out soon

did you have trouble tagging my channel? i had issues before 😊

I think there’s a Reading Proust in 2025 event if you’re interested, anotherbibliophilereads hosting I think. In case you want some company 😊

woot woot!!! ❤

So pretty:)

Amazing tag 😊

Interesting setup to track your reading 👍 Love the crystals 💖

Hi Emily - interesting reads. Enjoyed your answers 👍

I loved the questions to this tag and how you answered them! I had no idea you have read The Dark Tower! I agree that Michael Whelan’s art is spectacular. He might be the best fantasy illustrator. Wishing you a wonderful year of reading! ❤

Pessoa is a perennial favorite - thanks for such an in-depth video.

What other books do you recommend on the topic (ancient history/Mediterranean and Near East) ?

Ah gosh, Emily! I feel so honoured that you read my book! Thank you for shouting it out. I hope my new collection resonates too. B x

I did like Sally Rooney, who I read for the first time this year, but on the other hand I never got Doctor Zhivago, either (read it twice because I felt I must have missed something), so we're even. Good luck with Proust; I read it years ago, and enjoyed it, but only the once, so far!

My first year on book tube. Nice to make your acquaintance this year Emily! Here's to a great year of reading in 2025! Best wishes.

Amazing. So many books. Wishing you a fantastic New Year!

I read The Book Thief, for me was the worst book I read in my life. The book is so superficial and sentimentalist.

So many good books in your end of the year tag! I'm so sad to hear about Sally Rooney hahah I recently read Beautiful World, Where Are You and LOVED it, but I can see how it's not everyone's cup of tea 😅 I'm also hoping to read Don Quijote in 2025! I studied about it in high school but never read it, so I'm very excited! 💗

I'm with you on Doctor Zhivago. I buddy read that last year and we all came away disappointed. Yes! Pick up Proust! I can get lost in his sentences in the best way. Tolstoy and Pushkin will always be favorites. I need to read Wharton. I'm a Henry James fan, and I know she was greatly influenced by him.

Interesting answers. I read Normal People this year. I'm not sure Sally Rooney is for me either. I may give her another chance at some point. Probably not soon though

I took my time reading Clarice Lispector:Complete Stories. There are some absolute gems, but I have to say that I truly feel I'm not getting the full impact. Both because I'm not reading the original language, and also because I think I would benefit from studying what she is doing. For instance, I followed Yale lectures for Don Quixote and I got so much more out of the book because of it. I am definitely primed to read her books!

Ciao, Emily! Happy New Year! I plan on listening to the audiobook of Don Quixote narrated by my favorite George Guidall. He also narrates all but one of The Dark Tower Series 😮. It's going to be a busy year 😊 HAPPY READING 📖 ✌️🙂

I attempted Swan' Way. Couldn't get into it. But I did read Infinite Jest and loved it. I also read War and Peace. I loke the characters but didn't like the ending. I love Wharton.

Belíssima dicção . parabéns por seu trabalho 👏👏🌹🥳👏❤❤

My parents also confuse books with their movie adaptations 😂 I really want to read Edith Wharton and Don Quixote at some point, and it was cool to see Proust here too! I have read his first two volumes, and they were some of the first books I fell in love with. Great video, Emily!

I'm excited for so many books next year. Eek!

If you really liked The Book Thief by Markus Zusak, I would highly recommend his other book Bridge of Clay. It's a five star read for me, and it follows the five Dunbar brothers, and how the fourth Dunbar boy holds them all together after a tragedy. Markus Zusak's writing style is definitely unique and the story can take a bit of time to get into, but he does not disappoint.
