The truth in the shade 😂
But Jack liked the book written by Zoella‘s ghostwri- I mean Zoella.

Add this quote to the history books.
“It literally does and that word is equivalent” This literally killed me
I was literally laughing out loud 😂😂😂😂
The word "meaning" is a synonym for "synonym"
Right?
@Abhay Raj, a synonym for “synonym” would “equivalent”, or something similar
Same hahahaha
@@abhayraj4189 The synonym for 'meaning' is 'definition' and the synonym for 'synonym' is 'equivalent'.

Jack: *tries to defend art made for the masses*
Also Jack: *actually reads Gabbie Hanna's book*
Jack: :(
Referring to Gabbie Hanna’s book as tumblr poetry is offensive to tumblr poetry 🤣
Yeah, tumblr poetry is sometimes good, whereas Gabbie’s is not.
🙌🙌🙌
it’s funny considering she actually stole some of her poetry from tumblr lol
Wait till she rants on you guys on twitter and ig live and sue y'all for criticising her 💀
Yeas
I need jack to make an asmr channel where he just reads bad poetry in cursive
Lily Flack I’d watch it 😂
yes please
it would be my favorite asmr channel 😭
We are waiting jackkk🤪
YES
I lost it when he spoke in cursive
It’s my favourite thing
That was my favorite part literally kskskskkskskskskksksks
@@jack_edwards Wait how the heck to you 'speak in cursive'?
He's cute 😂
@@Hdjsgshshwuehshshs i think around 9:56 he started speaking in cursive lol
Hold on, are you telling me there's a whole page in Gabbie Hanna's book that says nothing but "Link in bio"? And people bought this??
it was on clearance and I used to really love the vlog squad.... it was a regret lmaoo
Anjalie Guin if it makes you feel better, I bought BOTH of Shane Dawson’s books, so I definitely understand regret lmao
@@anjieeee it’s okay it can be a comedic read or fuel for the fire
LMAOOOO
Yep.
OMG, "toxic positivity" is such a thing, really like your honesty! :)
Same!
The movie inside out perfectly portrays toxic positivity of always trying to find positive things and not accepting sadness. You have probably seen it but if you haven't , you might like it a lot.
@@yoongisgummysmile9648 Omg you're so right! I adore that movie.
@@yoongisgummysmile9648 inside out is such a fucking masterpiece and it genuinely helped me find out more about my own self and mental state lmao. It’s a film everyone should watch at least once
@@yoongisgummysmile9648 I need to watch it. I heard it was good but thought it was just a kids movie
Take a shot every time jack says BAWSE
you’ll be SHITFACED in the first 5 mins
I will
8 within the first 3 1/2 minutes
😂😂
truly a fine use of that degree, Jack, all those essays and sleepless nights! haha, but I loved this :)
finally something to show for it!!
@@jack_edwards this can go on your resume
Okay so hear me out, we all know Jack is an English Lit graduate, got a freaking FIRST like a boss, been a study tuber for like ...a really long time. Has a brand and business, had a podcast, wrote a damn book........ you get the sitch
But my dumb ass is still shocked that he can read so much in such a short period of time like what?? I struggle to finish a 20 page article for an assignment, yet he finished 4+ books in a single day 😭😭😭
I know right! It amazes me too. But I guess it comes with being a lit student
Angelique me too
He got a FIRST though???
@@vinzaid6008 fuck I confused that with Ibzmo, really sorry, lemme change that.
True but keep in mind all these books were written in very colloquial, simplistic writing, very dissimilar to academic readings which would take much longer
Now read actually good books by RUclipsrs, for example Hank Green’s book
Yes, please.
And Lindsay Ellis's book
rooseveltrdPR I haven’t read that one yet but I want to!
And, of course, any John Green book.
yesss hank’s book is so good!! i’m so excited to read the next one.
I never thought I’d see you endorsing a Jake Paul book
Honestly I can’t believe the bar is that low
me neither... *sigh*
the only one ive read is the lilly singh one, back when i was a genuine fan of her. i can say definitively i remember absolutely nothing about it, and I think that says a lot. and for someone who writes about being a virgin in this book, she certainly ,makes a lot of jokes against them nowadays. cant say I'm terribly proud of who shes become, at least in the public eye
Zoe Thomas totally agree!!
It's sad how she has declined. Her content should have matured with her audience I feel
I feel the USA ruined her style lol, she was great when she was based out of Canada
i LOVE that book and it brought me a lot of insight and stuff that i still remember and refer to. just offering a different perspective because it's obvious that not only because some people dislike it/don't remember much that it is a bad book. it is genuinely a very good advice book imo (i didn't watch him talk about it yet, just stating my own opinion based on my read)
@@SeanRosairo totally
Miranda's book has aged TERRIBLY
I was like:
How he’s going to read all this in one day...
The books:
Scrapbooks for teens
The Miranda Sings book is probably targeted at 7-11 year olds, not teens. Well it could be, but I have a hard time imagining any teens reading that,
Jake Paul: You'd never see me drinking or partying, I'm a hard worker
Jake Paul 2020: *gets in trouble for partying during a pandemic*
Every popular RUclipsr has 2 phases:
Phase 1: The releasing a book that’s mostly “inspirational” and about their life lessons
Phase 2: Trying to make an actual music career and make it seem like they are quitting RUclips soon
Bhuvan Bam though

‘Have you ever noticed how the word “synonym” doesn’t have a synonym?’

LMAO
Been liking your content a lot lately Jack. I appreciated your honesty in this one. When I write a book one day, I want your honest opinion on it!
Same! I'd honestly so appreciate his feedback. His perspective is very fresh but still backed by experience. I love hearing his reviews.
i tried to read that shane dawson book literally a few weeks before people started 'cancelling' him again and i thought the exact same thing. i legitimately felt sick after reading that part about date r*pe, that i had to put the book down. can't say i was surprised then with all the stuff that resurfaced about him lolllllll.
I bought it in 2015 but i never read it. I’m glad i came across this video, because i wanted to read it before donating it to a thriftshop. Gross.
@@mintchocosan that book could be put better use in the winter I guess, you know, when one is stranded inside the house and can't get firewood
I am impressed by how quickly he read those books. I easily would have spent the whole 12 hours in a single book. Also, I very much appreciate his honest and unbiased opinions on the books! Loved the accent too.
I think the biggest issue with Gabbie's book is that she tried to make the poems way deeper than they actually are. Like, I don't care if you wrote a poem about sleep but don't make it about suicide to stop people from making fun of it.
I wrote a poem about a mug I liked a lot and my teacher thought it was about my fragility...now that’s how you do it
@@foxja1 Beautiful. This mug that you always use every morning represents your fragility and innocence really well. If this mug ever breaks, it will never return back, just like innocence. How poetic
It makes sense. She’s a horrible person, after all.
@@rachelciel3330 comments like yours is why i love jacks comment's section. in other spaces this totally couldve been turned into one of those 'lol english teachers overanalyse everything am i right" jokes and im completely sick of those
honestly, yes! I'd love to read an actual good poem collection, portraying simple, everyday occurrences, objects etc., as i'm a firm believer that beauty deserving of being showcased in poetry can be found anywhere, as long as you look. even ordinary things hold value to us, and with the right words you can show your readers just how much it means. life in itself is beautiful to those, who seek beauty. take sleeping as an example. everyone has different habits; some sleep with their teddies still, cuddling them tight each night, some cover their feet with covers, scared - even if their common sense tells them monsters don't exist. my point is, in simplicity lies beauty. and arguably, the best thing about poetry - everyone may interpret it differently. A comment in this thread talked about a mug. now as someone mentioned, you may interpret the mug as a metaphor to fragility. a fragile person like me may see it that way as well. another reader though may think it's about how even simple things leave an impact on us - a simple mug at first glance may mean so much to the person, which is a great opportunity to think about how we form certain connections with objects. a tall tree withering, to one person may mean someone strong at their breaking point, to another - sickness and death from old age. that's why i adore poetry. :)
i genuinely cannot comprehend how u finished so many books within one day.. im still reading harry potter and the chamber of secrets for months lmao
(i know you said this 5 months ago) but remember, these are mostly books with very little words, and if more words very easy reading! I bet you could read a couple of those in a day especially if you're doing a video about it
@@Lucia-ef9zd yeah, but harry potter is actually quite simple too and it takes me a whole day xd
Lmao, it took me days to finish harry potter and the philosopher's stone, mostly because I wasn't picking it up a lot, but now I'm just waiting for chamber of secrets to come because it hasn't come when it was supposed to come MONTHS ago.
Omg AHAHAHAHA. 😭😭😭
Same, I've been trying to read more, but my addiction to gaming and youtube is in the way :/
connor franta's second book "note to self" is SO much better than his first!
I was just coming down to comment that same exact thing!
Oooo now I want to read that cause I only read the first one
Yes!! I was a little skeptical of note to self at first because I thought the first one was just okay, but I read it and it’s so much better than the first.
I died at the "bawse" thing - honestly, i never want to publicly say that out loud, its so awkward to pronounce for me, our british accents just dont have enough "umph", yknow oml
It’s like when you want to say arse in front of Americans but not sound like a dickhead
See, there's a difference between a book that was supposed to be good (Lilly Singh), a book that's supposed to be bad for comedic effect (Miranda SIngs), and a book where the author did not give a flying fart (Jake Paul).
Yeah, I think Miranda's book was probably bad on purpose, like a physical version of a video. People who buy it will probably like that kind of humor
There's a line between, writing a book with offensive/triggering topics for educational and awareness purposes, and writing a book with offensive/triggering topics for attention and comedic purposes. Take a wild guess which one goes over that line.
Of course the one with educational and awareness porpuses
10:00 jack, what... are you okay?
didn’t know you could speak 𝒸𝓊𝓇𝓈𝒾𝓋𝑒
I’ve replied this several times thank you hahaha
*replayed
I love how we're referring to Bo Burnham as a poet, because he actually is and deserves that title
Yes!
Bros literally a bard
Lilly wrote “eff” because that’s how she talks in her RUclips videos. Hate it anyway, but it was intentional
will.i.am is an incredible lyricist, the man who said “created me a rocket just so we could rock it later”, his poetry book would be INCREDIBLE
Yes

only mr jack edwards could trash youtuber books for a good amount of time and then plug his own and pull it off.
I love how jack is downright honest with his reviews.
fr tho “the uni-verse” is incredible and lowkey hilarious
Jack: The best book so far is Jake Paul’s.
Me: HOW!?!
me knowing i bought a lot of these books in 2014 and never finished any... its probably better that way.
100% of the pages from those books would serve as a fabulous source of free kindling for my fireplace over the winter. Please pack them up in the cheapest container you can find and send them my way...ooh toasty!!!!
Literally writes a memoir and calls his life "a work in progress"
isnt everyones haha.
I mean,you’re a work in progress at any point in life.
Love your Profil hehe
This age better than fine wine
Dodie's book Secrets for the Mad is a perfect example of a really well written "youtuber book" she wrote about her mental health and dealing with it in different ways in such an eloquent way that wasn't hard to digest and the artwork is absolutely beautiful. It's still one of my fave books!
Lily singh: how to be a bauhaus.
A book for the girls and the goths.
Excuse you, not all us girls are mentally deficient
@@faraway-2009 Wow...such superiority complex 🙃
How to be Bauhaus
A book for people who want to be bland and admired at the same time
As someone with dyslexia, the fact he can read a book in 3 hrs is beyond me. 😳 I read for 10 minutes and end up with a migraine 😵
Bawse just sounds like the Scottish version of balls 🙃
😭😭😭so true
Oh god I laughed so hard xDDDDDD
im so mad at my 10/11 yr old self wasting $17 on gabbie's book. I find it around my apartment every few months when I clean and consider setting it on fire but remember global warming. im glad I dont watch her anymore.
Same
‘I actually wrote mine’ tell them !!!!
I'm just at awe at how productive this person is
I laughed so hard at "come on lilly, just say it. Just say fuck!"
i preferred 'note to self' by connor franta wAy more than his first book !
the attention spam this man has... i can't read for more than 5 minutes
RIGHT?? I LOVE READING BUT I LOOK UP EVERY FIVE SECONDS
I SWEAR, SAME THOUGHT
Ah yes, i love me a nice attention spam sandwich
😭✋🏻
Me a adhd wreck
I bought “adultolescence” a couple of years ago not knowing who gabbie hanna was, just wanting to read “poetry” in a young way. I hated it.
I see Jack's point about writing a memoir in tour 20s but I've had cancer since I was 13 and BOY do I have enough bs to fill a memoir
The fact he finished it all in 12 hours amazes me. I cant even finished one book in a year.
I wonder where he stores all the books he buys for all of these challenges!?
the bin
there was a book exchange in the building I lived in so I just left them all in there for someone else to read :)
@@jack_edwards that's nice!
@@jack_edwards that's so cool!
I felt that “link.. in bio”
okay but the “are you happy or are you not sad?” would be ADORED if it was in like a different poetry book with better poetry
Hi, Jack Edwards, I've been following your channel for 2 years and you have provided me with so much information that I just want to say thank you so much. Also, I just received your Uni guide book the Uni-Verse and I just know it's going to help me coordinate and survive my first year of Uni this year. 👍
Oh my god, "It literally does and that word is equivalent." DYING.
I love how when I watch a jack edwards video, it inspires me to actually read or want to do well at school or something like that
Only now watching this, as I just found your channel, fellow literature student, I am currently double majoring comparative lit (mainly german and French literature and lots of theory) and English lit at a German uni. Very excited for this!!
I feel bad for my parents bc they spent sm money on all those RUclipsr books 🥺😂
Jack shading Conner Franta's life is cracking me up.
I recommend checking out Connor's second book Note to Self cause he really dives into some deep personal stuff and I enjoyed it
Jack, you DID NOT read that in cursive, YOU DID NOT
“it’s just a statement as to how low the standard was for these books like the bar has been set six feet under” that was so accurate 😭
Jack reading adultolescence in cursive sent me through the roof
I actually like the idea of writing a memoir at a young age, but I recommend printing it once and put it in your shelf, where it belongs.
Lilly: Bawse
Jack according to the English automatic translation: Bowels
I'm pretty sure Lilly Singh doesn't swear in real life, at least she didn't when I used to watch her as a kid, so that'd explain why she says 'eff' in the book so much
Can you make a whole video trying to analyse gabby hanas poetry as an English lit graduate
ngl, wasn’t expecting Jack to go all banani’s and avocadi’s when reading Gabbie Hanna’s poetry 😂
11:45 dude this is legit such an accurate shane dawson impression
I'm glad you're doing this so I don't have to 😂😂😂
Jake I was so glad that you actually said that if you are trigerred by sexual words skip to 30sec really appreciate that ❤️
This is one of my favourite videos of yours, it seems like you’re just being yourself. Your personality is truly shining in this one it’s nice!
3:47 Are we not gonna talk about how he’s sat analysing the book while it’s casually balanced on his mf head 😭 true grace
I love reading but I am honestly impressed at how anyone can read for that length of time consistently!! Loved the video though :)
When you said there are two words you never wanna read again (in reference to Lilly's book), I was SO SURE one of them was going to be... "hustle"
Jack is out here reading multiple books in the span of 24 hours
Meanwhile I can't get past 30 pages in two days :(
Same
You're reading the wrong books then
@@GummyDinosaursify unfortunate facts but more like depression :(
It depends what books I read. If it’s a physical book, yeah no way. It’ll take me 2 days to get to 30 pages too. xd they’re way less appealing if physical.
Fun fact: Lily actually doesn’t swear, so she didn’t just censor the f word for younger audiences but because she actually doesn’t say it
Why did this make me curious about jake paul's book?
my favourite bit was when you impersonated shane dawson
I agree with you on the insinuation of curse words, it bothers peopl who don't like cursing too. It's infuriating when content pretends to be family-friendly, marketing to impressionable kids because you know it's a big market, yet constantly insinuating innuendos drives me crazy. Just write the adult books you clearly want to!
connor's second book actually is very good if i remember accurately. i was like 16 at the time so i'm not fully sure lol. the photography was so lovely though.
Have you ever read ‘Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?’ Jack? Such a great play and I’d love to know your thoughts.
Maybe do celebrity books next? I know that either Kylie or Kendall has a book or maybe they wrote it together, I'm not sure. I'm also not sure how many Canadian RUclipsrs have books but Kalyn Nicholson has a book so maybe find Canadian RUclipsr books?
"There's the occasional funny one-liner but the funniest thing about this is the price" I AM DEAD
No shade to Connor Franta but I love how the "most mortifying experience of his life" was WINNING PROM KING.
Like, dude...
i hope you add these to your goodreads challenge bc this takes some commitment
“It literally does and that word is equivalent” I literally had to pause to take a second cause i was laughing so hard
Two years ago, I was a massive fan of TheOdd1sOut, and I have both of his books as a result. I have to say, I felt like I had been scammed after reading his first book. So many of the stories had already been told in his videos, and there were very few drawings added. There were only four chapters I hadn't heard before, so that means I payed 5 dollars per new chapter. With his second book, he didn't just reuse all of his old stories, but it still wasn't worth it to me.
when you read "are you happy, or are you not sad" I had to pause to process and recover from that
