Which is your best non fictiion self help books ?

I think as a white foreign European girl attending university in England when I was 18, this book would have hit so hard!! I was grappling with how they saw their (and our) history differently. How they were not European and saw me as wierd and other. How fascinating it was I could speak like them, but they were mostly monolingual. And I can imagine the Chinese students (there were many from Hong Kong) would feel this a thousand fold!! But I have grappled with this. I moved away. Lived in other countries. I know a lot of the colonial history now, other languages. Although I truly see the value of it being told from the perspective of Robin in the book. Maybe it could aid a British audience see different perspectives. You really summarise why this book didn't work for me after all. I did not connect with the characters. A perfect review!

I am currently reading this book for a undergrad critical theory class and I still have no idea how the professor will apply it as one of the 2 main course materials so this was a great little video, thanks

I found i want to die but i want to eat... pretty mediocre so I understand finding it just okay. I have jade city waiting for me on my shelf. I had a lot of fun with the serpent and the wings of night, it took me by surprise as well.

For me Babel felt like reading a college lecture. I felt so disconnected from all the characters because of that. It also didn't make sense to me that the use of Silver for magic didn't have any impact on the world, when it should have.

First one or I could agree with the second

📚 great video! ☺️

To answer the question you asked, I really like Readswithrachel. She's more of a critic, but when she reviews those books, it's fun to listen to. She's making sure to rate books from a variety of genres and talks about authors behaving badly, book banning and other issues, but it's by far the most enjoyable moment when she likes the books she reads and talks about them. Mynameismarines is also more of a critic, but her long reviews are quite nice to listen to. Elizabeth_weathley should be mentioned by me as well. She is an author, talks about book tropes, and makes funny shorts about the romance tropes. Her mascot is the book goblin, and the content is quite wholesome, funny, and just the right flavor of creativity while spinning around stereotypes

I love the way that you narrate your review. You have earned yourself a new subscriber :D!

You speak so well. I am currently reading Babel and I was wondering why I am feeling that something is off with the writing and the narrative and now I can understand why because of your video. I know it’s YA but I didn’t liked the dialogues because I felt the characters speak like they are living in our times and this is so weird to me!

I have that exact shirt

I’m sending you love and a great year overall❤🫶🏽

It's incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just read it

❤❤❤

Thank you for your review, it’s very refreshing to see a valid criticism, I only saw people either being highly positive about this book or.. well, white people being offended by it. I honestly tried to love this book so much because of the themes it rises and how relatable characters sometimes were, but relatability and rising important themes are not enough to make a good story, unfortunately. I honestly don’t understand where all these extremely positive reviews are coming from, I even saw people calling this book a masterpiece, the best peace of contemporary literature they ever read and I just don’t get it. I wouldn’t say the book is awful though, it’s just way more mediocre when I expected it to be, especially, like you said, after such a good beginning. And oh dear lord.. THOSE. FOOT. NOTES. In my mind I for some reason kept comparing Babel with My name is red by Orhan Pamuk, even though it’s probably not very fair considering that it’s not a YA book like Babel and it doesn’t exactly cover the topic of colonialism. But it still kinda reminds of Babel, since It’s a historical novel (based in 16th-century Istanbul) and covers this western vs eastern culture theme. So yeah, strongly recommend it to everyone

Such a fun way to do new releases!

Love this so much!!!!

You have a beautiful smile!

I was so stressed for you! 🤣 Great video Idea 💡 maybe 45 secs to give you a fighting chance Kaela! 🫶

Fair enough on wanting to get rid of the audiobook and the editions of hunger games you didn't want! I loved little fires everywhere but it isn't for everyone! While I love octavia e butler maybe a book of hers that isn't dystopian could work better for you. Get a life of chloe brown 😭 But yay for getting space!! For new and exciting books.

This is so cute!! 🫶🏽

I read Count Of Monte Cristo when I was in 4th grade. However, I read an abridged version.

Love how you arranged your books on the shelves.❤
