What an awesome list of books, sounds like a good winter. I'm getting overloaded with the amount of small book channels on youtube with such great quality. This was super enjoyable, thanks for doing it
Best wishes with what you choose to read. I'm currently reading the Count of Monte Cristo. It is excellent but I might be some time. Good luck. I hope you get some great stories.
Hello Sophia! I wanted to say that I love your videos, especially your Ottessa Moshfegh and Bret Easton Ellis reviews! I am an author myself, and I was wondering if you would be open to reviewing my own self-published novel? I feel like it aligns well with the genre/themes of other books you have discussed.
I had the same exact feeling with Blood Meridian. Not necessarily an all time favourite book. 4/5 stars for me. Confusing at times because of the writing style. But such memorable characters, I think about the ending scenes and the Judge at least once a week. Even though I read it months ago now.
I thought Killers of the Flower Moon kind of fizzled in the end, like he didn’t know how to wrap it up….I agree with you about Wharton- sort of meh; I think Willa Cather is much better, strongly recommend. My favorite Maugham is a lesser known one called The Narrow Corner. Sutree is a great early Cormac which is actually funny. I’m an old Gen X’er who read that Kundera in high school and thought it was sublime and brilliant. Read it again recently and omg it has not aged well. Cringe sex scenes as you mentioned. Pseudo intellectual-yep. It might really be more like a racy YA for teenage boys who like Nietzsche😂 Really enjoy your videos, cheers from Madison, Wisconsin.
