If Thomas More had known that writing “Utopia” in 1516 would eventually lead to a dystopian teen novel “written by” the Jenners, he would have begged Henry VIII to behead him early.
@Trinity M I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the ghost writer's larger ideas surrounding class and the actual dystopian elements were stricken in favor for the romances, because you know it's for 'teen girls'👉👈
i don’t think the jenners understand class struggles tho… maybe they even made the ghost writer cut down some parts that they saw as “reaching” and too “unrealistic”
Multi millionaires shouldn't even try to write about class struggles. It's like all those insanely wealthy RUclipsrs making "Squid Games in real life" videos, completely missing the point of the show
They really should have written a book where it’s like Keeping up with the Kardashians but in dystopian/post-apocalyptic world. The girlies are fighting over nothing while zombies reek havoc outside their mansion. Camp!!!
they quite literally put every dystopian trope in a book and acted like it was relateable. Orphans, government control, rebellion, its like something i wrote in 6th grade creative writing after reading the giver.
why am I not surprised that the Kendall Jenner insert is a debutante who doesn't want to be a rich girl. Props to her being consistent with her I'm Not Like Other Girls brand even back then.
Carley, I’m a 43 y/o mom going through a truly *horrific* divorce. Your videos are a bright spot in the middle of a real struggle. Please don’t ever change. If you read it, I’ll absolutely pull up and listen to you talk about it.😂❤

There's an interview where Kylie answered a lot of questions regarding the book, while Kendall clearly didn't know the details of the book. Kylie seemed to show genuine interest in her own book, which indicates that she read it. Kendall, on the other hand, I'm not so sure.
Do you think that they ever like... sat in front of computer for an hour? Did they ever write a poem in word? Did they ever draw in paint? Did they ever play sims? I dunno, it seems so surreal to me. I imagine their life being photoshoots, business meetings, parties and then in free time they probably scroll through their social media. I obviously cannot imagine them writing a book but now? I can't even imagine them playing that dinosaur game that appears when internet is fucked for a minute
My dude, if your cramps are this bad then consider seeing a specialist for endometriosis (I say this as someone who is currently recovering from successful endometriosis excision surgery- it’s very much worth getting checked out)
Another underrated dystopian series: Uglies by Scott Westerfeld Came out BEFORE Hunger Games and actually has insightful things to say regarding the whole plastic surgery thing
@@human9460 That would be cool!! I used to read stuff like Twilight when I was younger lol but as of now I don't even have a specific genre to go for, so any recommendations are welcome !!
@nævis I obviously love Heartstopper XD Also the tea dragon society is super sweet. If you want a grafic novel with more action I recommend the umbrella academy by gerard way. Then I really enjoy John Greens books and The Henna Wars by Adiba Jaigirdar. Percy Jackson is a classic and Miss Perigents (?) home for peculiar children is also popular for a reason. Bunny by Mona Awad is wtf horror and very strange. The series of a natural history of dragon is also very loved (i have to whole series but haven't read it XD). Geekerella and the princess and the fangirl are also very fun. And Kacen Callender writed great queer books. But my favourite book is the stationary shop of Tehran by Marjan Kamali. I've never cried so much in my entire life. Because I'm German I also want to recommend some German authors whose books got translted into english: Cornelia Funke, Kerstin Gier, Erich Kästner. Here are some authors who are problematic that I wouldn't recommend. If you want a deep dive why they are problematic I recommend the yt channel readwithrachel: - cassandra clare - Jay Kristoff (but I have a Nevernight tattoo lol) - jkr obv - sarah j maas - cj piper
Omg stop dragging that movie just because she was a princess doesn’t mean she can’t suffer too (not gonna start elaborating I’ve done it so many times already ffs)
Nahhhhh I do not believe this book had anywhere near the self-awareness as that movie, Annaliese is embarrassed when it comes to her turn to explain her life and pretty much goes “ehh??” when Erika first says they’re alike. Yeah the pro monarchy’s fucked as usual but the “we’re alike” aspect of the movie is well handled imo especially for a kids’ movie!
I’ve heard almost nothing about the Prince Harry memoir and for a brief five seconds thought “Prince Harry’s oscillating penis” was just the sort of silly phrase you’d make up to win a round in Cards Against Humanity. Then I realized it was probably real and was immediately terrified.
Came here from the Paris Hilton video and omg I just gotta say that I LOVE the style of your videos, Carley!! The way your sense of humor is completely enough for your videos to feel like a sweet little treat; you could literally record in an empty room with white walls and the video would still be the sweetest of little treats! Just gotta appreciate your laidback, chaotic yet organized way of structuring your videos! ❤❤❤❤
Wait but there actually was a book series where it was illegal to have more than 2 children for overpopulation and environmental reasons. But the characters were secret illegal 3rd children. The first one was called Among the Hidden and I was obsessed
Exactly what I was thinking. Didn’t know if I was the only one. I had to read the first book of Among The Hidden in I think 7th grade? I liked it though. Started rereading it recently. One of my first impressions. I also read Monster, the crime case book. And 9th grade summer read Fahrenheit 451 and Animal Farm.
I love how she is just casually wearing an ahjumma vest like that doesn't imply that she should be making the most massive kimchi bowl ever seen in history while reviewing this book
sometimes i forget that carley was a theatre kid and then she makes extensive connections between knockoff hunger games and victor hugo's magnum opus and then i remember she's truly just a barricade girlie
Honestly a whole job where you get to write utter unhinged shite and have it be published without you having to pay for the whole process sounds so fun
Did you know that Kendall and Kylie made a sequel book? It’s called, Time of the Twins! I was subscribed to Teen Vogue at the time, and I vividly remember reading an article about it. Time of the Twins apparently takes place directly after the first book ends.
I was in middle school in 2000 and I'm so jealous of the YA craze you got to experience. It was soo hard to find good books at that age. At least there was harry potter, tbh that's probably why it was so popular
I just learned of the existence of the book YESTERDAY and I am BAFFLED by everything about this. Thank you for your time dedicated to this because I would jump off a cliff
My favourite books are dystopian romance books and I say this because even I know dystopian books can get repetitive and have some of the most annoying tropes out there and Kylie literally just threw together every single dystopian trope and stereotype and called it a day, it’s like what I wrote when I was 12 after reading the hunger games🙏😭 Edit: what makes it even funnier is that Kylie and kenndle literally are exactly what most dystopian books are against, rich plastic people who spent millions on a one night dress and blow themselves up with plastic while theres starving people who can’t afford to buy a meal, I’m laughing so hard at this😭🙏🙏🙏
every time rock bottom is mentioned, all i can think about is the episode of SpongeBob where he gets stranded at that place that's below bikini bottom and i don't even think the place is called rock bottom, but that's what comes to mind
i saw in one of the comments that you were having an anxious week and so i just want to remind you to be gentle with yourself, drink lots of water, and get plenty of rest. you got this queen !!! we're all rooting for you (:
Honestly that small plot line where they talk about how the woman can only have one child reminds me of this book I read ‘Among The Hidden’ where all the woman could only have 2 children and they ended up having 3 idk just reminded me of it🤷🏽♀️
I heard that celebrities have their teenagers write books that way it’s a sure thing they get into a good college. So long story short colleges take rich kids if they have a ghost writer and a book with some money
I’m genuinely anxious right now and I thought: I need something to light up my mood and get me out of my head before I go to sleep. Then I saw that you posted and it felt like the hug of a friend, as if you’d literally heard that I needed some company 💜
discovered you like a month or less ago and binged all your new stuff and then went back, gotta say - you've gotten funnier! Absolutely no shade, you just seem more confident I love it, pls continue
There's a classic Star Trek episode called "Cloud Minders" that takes place in a foreign civilization called Ardana (weirdly similar to Indra). It is divided between the poor laborers who live underground in the mines and the rich people who live up in the clouds (like the book). One of the revelations is that the people underground are being poisoned by an unseen natural gas that diminishes brain capacity (somewhat similar to memory wipe in the book). One of the guest leads is a woman from the underground, Vanna, that leads the resistance (so basically Lex). The other is a wealthy woman, Droxine, from the clouds, the daughter of the High Adviser of the Council (so basically Livia). There's not any love but there's certainly chemistry between Kirk and Vanna and also between Spok and Droxine. I feel like this book is basically that episode but made infinitely worse. In the episode, they attempt to unpack the ways the poor are kept in poverty by environmental and systemic factors. Also, the cloud people are hilariously out of touch. In one scene, after being rude, Droxine says "courtesy is for inferiors." They have no conception of their privilege or how little they've actually earned their position of comfort. It's no surprise this aspect was left out of the book.
if you wanna see the whole "rich ppl in the clouds/poor ppl on the ground" thing executed in a way that's actually interesting, may i recommend RWBY volumes 7 and 8

Your no make up face on the ad part is SO GORGEOUS I think also because you have no lip colour it makes your eyes pop. Try doing your makeup with just natural lip liner and gloss and let us know how it goes❤
I forgot about this cultural icon. Thank you for bringing this historical watershed moment back into the light ❤
My grandma had that exact same vest and the nostalgia hit I got from seeing it was so strong

Your channel is the best thing I've come across in ages and I can't stop recommending it to people. Everything you put out is so calming, inspiring, and funny. Thank you for making content!
the idea of "Rock Bottom" being a literal place just makes me think of Spongebob
I love your tone, your attitude, your humour... Honestly every time I get a notification for this channel: day instantly better!! 🥰

Books like these give me a lot of hope that I'll be a published writer one day. 😅
only works if you build your personal brand first
You're the bravest person I know. Thank you for your continued service to the cause!!
Do you need a Kickstarter, girl? Because I literally felt my gray matter decaying as you were describing this war crime against humanity and now I need a support group.
can confirm the vest is slaying
okay good to know
i hit the like button on this video for the ad because i smoke and she inspires me that I can actually be a reader as a stoner, thanks

Following you on IG and Subscribed RIGHT AWAY. I love when people just keep talking about books and are super real about how they feel. I could listen to you for hours! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I love this recap its the kind of chaos and incoherence that would get me to read it
