Rereading Some Favorites In December!
yay!!!! i'm not the only one with the opinion of anne of green gables worked best as a trilogy!! i can't tell you how relieved that makes me feel to not be alone on that.
Kate, just wanted to comment that I hope you’re ok. I see in other comments that you’re working on your health. I hope you are seeing some improvement. ❤❤❤
Middlemarch has the kindest authorial voice of any novel I've ever read. It's just incredibly sympathetic to all its characters.
That is such a beautiful way of putting it! I wholeheartedly agree with you. It does really feel like George Eliot is just delighted to have a reader on a journey through any of her novels.
Nice video. I've read a few of these books, and liked them all. Kristin Lavransdatter is my favourite. Undset won the Nobel Prize for literature largely on the strength of this book. The Master of Hestviken books are almost but not quite as good.
I’m reading a book by JD Barker that reference great expectations. I had the book great expectations when I was a child and never read it. Thanks for the recap. I’ll be sure that’s the next book on my reading list. ❤
Hi Kate! I loved The Moonstone, LOVED The Woman in White, and now want to get Man and Wife (I totally trust your judgment!). 🥰
One of my favourite books ever, which I remember well from reading it at school when I was 11. I’m loving sharing it with my 9 year old son now!
have you read lawrence block or rex stout
A very great novel. Maybe the greatest!
have you ever read inspector montalbano
I'm amazed the yanks are into this author! When I moved into my purchased unit I realised I couldn't read horror living alone. Eventually I had enough for a credit card and purchased my fave 3 Mary Stewart paperbacks. Must dig them out and read them all again (I now have the whole lot).
Lots of chat about James meandering, it went well to me because the gal, Jane, was pretty much done with him and he was going to risk-all for nada. I've been grateful that in English storytelling the cheating is seen as "being foolish" whereas in the U.S. we seem to hang on to it and want to see or hear more due to the scandal or whatever it is we get all hyperactive about over it whether it's disgust or allure, or a bit of both? It sells I guess. But with James Garfield it's more a concern than the universe exploding and garnering attention to sell advertisements, however scandal gets used. I feel like maybe it's because the culture in England is so darned old that the infidelity story is so well known that no one is going to bother getting hyper about it. It might be like acting as if Menopause is "new" when it goes back to the year dot? I get more fascinated by how the waiters on Crete grab people to dine together and the couple does notice they were captured as Amy and Miss Read are. The book often makes me want shrimp or whatever it is they are having. And them tripping on the cat or Miss Read having her contemplation about the monk being SO solitary and wondering if he was a reflection of her own life or it would be in the future. Amy's fear of flying gets pretty intense but as soon as they lift and are off it rather fades away, too.
Glad to hear the recognition of yankee TV potentially ruining Fairacre or anything by Miss Read by adding too much drama. That would be my expectation, too. Alas. Then again over dramatizing does get to more and more places from what I recall in trying to pick productions based on books. Ah, well.
With Vanessa's later love interest, I remember the way they said he wore a kilt was "The Kilt" because I suppose that was how people spoke it conversationally and then Miss Read and Amy personally wondered why it was said that way: Why The Kilt? It makes it sound like the entire male population shares only one garment between them. XD And yep, why call it a quiz? It was a panel, sure, but there wasn't like a spelling bee type thing, or it should be titled: a gentle inquiry panel, something like that. I dig the Easter Bunny chat, too. Whenever I hear what people relate about how the Easter Bunny works is always so different, like the traditions of how and what to do is so different and I wonder why now, so I'm glad y'all brought that up! (Food for thought and grounds for further research.)
Wow... it is SO refreshing to listen to someone so passionate about books, discussing some narrative and all this stuff I haven't heard anyone talk about for years, by golly. Dang, man. Feels like I'm finally finding what I've been looking for for decades and just didn't figure it out until way later, alas.
I think I have become addicted to these Fairacre book discussions, I keep looking for all of them, wish there was a playlist. Thank you!
Oh my gosh, thank you! That whole school-closing motif over and over and over! I love it, whoever said, "Just deliver or stop talking about it!" That is one of those attempts to put us at the edge of our seats cliche's and it never actually arrives anyway! There should be something out there where they try to bring that up and then, "Yes, that and Joseph Coggs will age two decades into his actual age, that'll be the day" remarks or why are the people who've been working at the school longer than Miss Read have are still working there when she retires as if they're eternally middle aged or something?!
It is fun to hear expectation of things like seeing from Mrs. Pringle's perspective and thoughts of something about Minnie (EGAD) but I could well imagine it somehow, I think just from knowing folks who were either a bit like Minnie or in a few cases a lot like her, and the fascinating thing I LOVE about Miss Read and her books is they go against the grain in such a conservative way, the teacher is like a non-conformist from cherishing being a spinster or into her solitude against popular-demand and that kind of thing. However, to top it off there is an interview with her and she was *not* one of those authors who had tons of rejection letters, she did short articles for a few magazines and someone at a publishing house requested her to write a novel and she was worried she couldn't do it for the length and the guy actually told her, "Oh, rubbish, it's nothing!" and she walked out of that visit as she said "more dead than alive", so not only are her books non-conformist in a way we never think of, where everyone else wants her in a romance and she doesn't want that, but also she as an author is requested rather than wanting to be a novelist and the usual rejection that comes with that. Amazing!
Wow! You know Clue AND As Time Goes By too, trippy!
Good Heavens! Someone who still loves books. This is So relieving and refreshing and a brow wipe too for the sake so many are worried this kind of enjoyment is dying and phoom! Here we are. Very nice.
It's fun listening to readers wonder if she will get hitched to someone early because I found Fairacre by the second to last book so I always knew going in that wasn't going to happen. Good stuff, nice to listen to people get together and read books particulary a favourite book series. Have a UK pen friend who was so blown away anyone from the U.S. would loves Miss Read and now I'm looking around seeing clearly it is not only me!
Wow, the flasher stuff! Well pointed out! But no, no full-frontal nudity in Fairacre, at least the books... Oh, and showing up to Mrs. Pringle's door and fanfiction, my chap and I were developing one that I can hopefully conjure about Mrs. Pringle when I get better (as I am messed up right now.) I was thinking and my fellow wanted the results, about how what with her being a little brat as a child and messing with the ducks in the duck pond that it ended up in which, as years went by, ducks flying over her head would poo or drop rotten eggs on her and that would be why she is so grumpy all the time, never revealing the reason, but the ducks she taunted always had it out for her. Then I added an idea that the only time the ducks flying overhead missed her was when she was fighting with Mrs. Fowler that time and the ducks decided Mrs. Fowler was just as good a target anyway. ^_^
Minnie Pringle is very "What can you do...?" And the answer is not much. Teacher and others have made attempts and get no where, though it might not be as much effort as people made with Mrs. Coggs, poor lady, whereas with Minnie you know at some level Minnie is entertained by her own drama with her mad grins and ecstatic contemplation about her own wild life. Oh, true, no concept of self-improvement, I agree! So glad people are still talking about books, BLESS YOU! All y'all! ^_^
Kate, what is the intro music...its on the tip of my tongue. Making me crazy. I love your reviews and passion for reading . Thank you
Superb book.
I liked Middlemarch but i liked The Mill on the Floss even more. It was such s beautifully written book.
New subscriber, this takes me Way back. I read Mary Stewart in the mid, late 60’s, and on until she passed away. I liked you analysis, and you reminded me how very much I loved her books. I still have most of those you covered, but the ones I was waiting to talk about, you never mentioned at all! What about the 4 book series-The Crystal Cave, The Hollow Hills, The Evil Day, The Last Enchantment? My very favorite of the Arthur tales. If you haven’t read them yet, you really should. I’ll be back to check out more of your posts, I looked to see and happily found you are still posting! Hope you and your family are doing very well.
My favorite is "The Eustace Diamonds"
Kate i love this video thanks for creating and sharing it. I hope you’re ok? Miss your videos lately take care ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@LizziebelleXOX Thanks so much! Unfortunately, my health has deteriorated even more so I needed to step away. Hoping the latest treatment I just started will give some good results.
@@katehowereads❤
Kate! I’m just going through some of your older videos, and while watching this one thought maybe you want to buddy read “The Lifted Veil” and “Brother Jacob” with our little GE buddy reading group this Victober! It’s going to be my very last GE fiction, and then I will be a completionist!
That's so lovely of you to invite me! I think my Victober tbr is already pretty full unfortunately. I hope it's a lovely time though!
@@katehowereads 😊👍🏻
there are so many adaptations I'm confused which one to buy
I just finished Mill on the Floss and I wept like a baby. It was a painful ride, but Maggie's capacity for and persistence in love is really wonderful. I think Tom's realization in the end though tragic, justifies Maggie's journey and trials. It's very bitter sweet, but we can learn from this to value those who love us whom we take for granted. Everyone will fall in love with Maggie.
Also Bob Jak8n in the most amusing supporting character I have read since Sancho Panza.
The Nine Tailors is probably the best mystery ever written.
I finally finished watching this series of your's and I absolutely loved it!!!
For me, Oliver Twist was amazing for the character of Nancy. Most of Dickens women are blah, at least in the books of his that I read. But Nancy captured me completely. How I prayed that the book would not end like the film or the musical did. I recall that the book was very exciting. His other books left me cold. I realize that Dickens books purpose was often to educate or expose some wrong in his world. But oh what a chore it was for me to get through them for school assignments. If only they had assigned Oliver Twist I might have developed a love for Dickens. Well, Jane Eyre changed for me after I read Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys. I always thought Rochester was a bit of a bully with a cruel streak in him. After reading Rhys's book I could not accept the portrayal of the mad wife in the book anymore.
Is anyone waiting for Kate's new video? I am!! Last book i enjoyed from this list was summer at castle auburn:). When will yo I post your next video Kate? 😊
Hi! 🙋So glad you enjoyed Summers at Castle Auburn! I'm currently taking a break to work on finding some answers for my health. I'm hoping to be back in the autumn though.
@@katehowereads oh hope all is good. Sending good wishes to you:) and looking forward to hearing your voice, for excellent book recommendations 😊
@@angeldream7990 Thank you so much! ❤️
I finished Dr. Wortle’s School this afternoon. I agree, it was a breath of fresh air.
I'm so glad!
Моя любимая книга - серия о Мерлине. Что потрясло с первых страниц - описание природы, и ощущение присутствия. Мой любимый автор
Kate, thank you ao much for this series! I've added so many books to my tbr!
We miss you here in Boston Massachusetts, just saying 😊 looking forward to more videos when the time is right 😊
Todd, thank you so much! I'm currently putting a lot of effort into my health and hopefully finding a solution. I will hopefully be back in the autumn.
@@katehowereads Thank you so much Kate for taking the time to send this message, yes definitely take care of yourself first..we will all be here when your ready and able..God Bless
@@toddbelanger1923 Thank you, Todd!
I’m pretty sure I read The Wind off the Small Isles long before she died. It's years and years ago now.
Middlemarch considered by many the finest classic English novel.
I only had my kindle basic for few weeks. It went off WiFi yesterday. Put it back on but now it shows only book currently unavailable on all books. Whether it be Buy or free to read or unlimited books. (I have a kindle unlimited subscription). Something not matching up. Only books I can read are ones I've already downloaded before it went off line Anyone with any ideas 🤔 Thanks Lee
Thank you!
