I have the same issue with contemporary books - I know exactly what you mean which is why I created my own strategy for clean reads - I did make a video about that not too long ago. I admire you so much for Booktubing while being a teacher! You have a busy life! I put your 2 food books in my TBR at Goodreads. Now I'm going to go look for your Goodreads account.
Adding - to answer your question about what I'm reading now: I'm reading 1776 by David McCullough and Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackery. I haven't been making videos this last month because (1) my new house is being built and I'm living in a construction zone (in a trailer) and am feeling unsettled, and (2) I have been having gall bladder attacks during the last month or two and just got surgery for that a week ago now. I will be back to making videos again soon, I hope.
Food sounds interesting. I’ll have to check it out. Do you ever read cozy mysteries that are heavy on food descriptions and that include recipes at the end of the book? That’s my favorite kind of cozy mystery.
I think you're being too nice with your ratings. One book you give 4 stars but then you say you wouldn't recommend it. Another book you give 5 stars but then you say "it just wasn't my favorite". It's okay to give a book 1 or 2 stars. 😀
I think you’re right 😂😂 I need to let myself be a bit more critical. I always think to myself, “why do I even rate books- I don’t know what makes a book good or not” 😂 Thanks so much for watching!

Just found your channel it is a treasure to me. I am looking for more Conservative book review channels.

I haven’t, but it sounds wonderful! I’d love some recs!
