Jess I know you're busy but the booktok community needs you, I'd love for you to share all of this on tiktok 😭 we're tired of the same 3 books being recommended there
All of those Le Guin editions look so lovely ! I wrote my bachelors thesis on Always Coming Home and always drool over the pretty retro editions from america xx
That duster is gorgeous. Looks like you're about to go on a magical adventure 🤣 I'm glad I'm not the only person who is particular about their book cover preferences
I watched the show (My Brilliant Friend) on HBO before reading the books. I became OBSESSED with the story and the characters, it´s truly an amazing novel series and the show is great also. Hopefully you´ll like it as well!
I have a list of books to pick up in America when I go this autumn because the covers are just sooooo much better on so many books. They are killing it. I am planning on reading the Booker shortlist, though I quite fancy the whole Longlist tbh, intrigued which ones will be make it when it’s announced… and then I’ll get cracking on it.
Have you tried the COS REGULAR-FIT HEAVYWEIGHT T-SHIRT I struggled with finding the perfect t shirt for a bigger chest for a long time and these are lovely 😊
Did you read Station Eleven and The Glass Hotel before you read A Sea of Tranquility? Because ASOT doesn't make much sense if you haven't read the other two beforehand. For your congested skin, I recently got Paula's Choice Azelaic Acid booster and it's been so great for my congested skin. Also, brown really really suits you, Jess!
Story of a New Name is my favourite of the Neapolitan books. After you’re done with the series, you should absolutely watch the HBO show, it’s an excellent and faithful adaption that masterfully realizes the world Elena Ferrante builds in her writing.
I would love to see you do a critical analysis of any of the books you have read that you have had time to take notes on. I love your choices and you pursued a degree I wish I could have in another life.
I don't know if you've read this already, but I feel like Love After the End by Joshua Whitehead might be a great fit for your speculative fiction column!
Hey I’m wondering if you can help, I watched one of your book vlogs and you mentioned something about people trapped inside a dome. It sounded like a really good book, I thought it was a Neil Gaiman book but I have no idea what it is called and can’t find the video again where you mention it, do you know the name ? Haha
Great to see you back and that your trip went well. I hope America didn’t treat you poorly. I need to read the Delillo books on my shelf, they sound intriguing. Also, I am about halfway through Babel and so far it is solely based in academia at Oxford and the characters are just beginning to venture out as they get closer to graduation. It is completely different so far from Poppy War trilogy. I’m trying to read it slowly because the recommendation that I heard was super positive and suggested absorbing it a little at a time to fully savor it. The writing is terrific and super accessible. It seems like one you would enjoy. It’s got a taste of fantasy with a magic system, but so far, that is a small part of the story.

Gilead is one of Obama's favorite books and one of his favorite authors and he interviews the author which is very interesting to listen to!
Random book rec incoming: Moon of the Crusted Snow by Waubgeshig Rice. Love this video

I love how I live in America and am only aware of Proulx from your US haul 🤭
I'm just finishing Barkskins by Annie Proulx and so recommend it!
