i'm so sad my microphone stopped working when we recorded our answers to your question but people will just have to go over to stereo to hear the THREE WAY COLLAB hahaha
@@jack_edwards omg it’s completely okay!! i’m just so glad that i got to hear your amazing answers to it! AND TRUE, it’s STEREO EXCLUSIVE CONTENT 😏 also can we just acknowledge this being the start to an incredible friendship?? like wow the power
not me adding the song of achilles on to my TBR list just so I can take myself back to ready the percy jackson series as a child as it was CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED
11:00 omggg you guys don't know how much i needed this today, i'm doing a literature degree (french one tho) and it's been three years of struggling with this feeling of not knowing enough, not having read enough, not being enough, etc. and today it really makes me wonder if i'll be able to go further on with this field of study even though it really passionates me,, sooo what i'm saying is thank you, a lot, for talking about this
this was the best collab i've ever seen on youtube, in any topic. there was such a great friend chemistry and I laughed and smiled the whole time and was very inspired!
This is my first introduction to this channel, since I am a huge Noelle fan! Jack I love how much you smile when you talk - your happiness is contagious! I find myself smiling at my computer screen watching this video.
10:00 Rebecca by Daphne De Maurier is a great classic to start with. Very easy to comprehend writing, interesting plot, iconic characters. This book is one of my faves, just trust me!♥️
I love thisss! Though I feel like I already ‘perform’ the books in my mind as I’m reading them so I don’t really enjoy audiobooks, like at all...*hides in shame*
i LOVED this part of the conversation because i'd never thought of audiobooks as a performance before! i agree, i think i sort of perform them in my head, but i'm increasingly enjoying audiobooks the more i read because it feels a bit more relaxing and like my inner performer can have a lil' day off hahaha
this is a hill I will die on: most people who love murakami have just not read enough japanese lit. so much of what he's praised for (magical realism, his style of prose, etc) are present in A LOT of japanese fiction, but he gets a lot of the english speakers' support bc of good marketing, name recognition, and lack of exposure to wider jpn fiction
The booktube collab I didn’t know I needed. Also, I’m not sure if Fahrenheit 451 is considered a classic, but it definitely should be. Top notch science- fiction/ dystopian
i’m reading song of achilles right now and it’s so beautiful that i don’t want to finish it because i don’t want it to be over and i know it’s going to wreck me 😭
I'm starting a lit and lang course at uni next year and I'm terrified everyone will have read more than me. Glad to know i'm not the only one! I adore both of you :)
Great video! Enjoyed it very much! Jack, loved your answer about Truman Capote, one of my favorite writers. Totally agree about In Cold Blood, such a fascinating book!
This collab is EVERYTHING Also as a music grad I totally relate to the discussion on the cannon because music has a similar stigma, some of the best, most brilliant pieces of music aren't in that cannon of what is considered important music
So enjoyed listening to the two of you chat. I took my family on holiday to Amsterdam on the basis of my daughter's love of The Fault In Our Stars - and had a fantastic time. We went to visit Anne Frank's house and had a hot chocolate in the hotel the characters stayed in (the film). We also visited the bench which was amazing (it was put back) which was covered in amazing quotes left by visitors. Definitely recommended!
Insane, I listen to just TWO "Booktuber"s and here they are together. Wonderful content from both of you, please do this more often. Both of you are so much fun, relaxed and knowledgeable, a joy to see your videos.
I have been following Jack since my first year of Uni (and I am on my third and last year) and I recently discovered Noelle, who immediately became one my fave book tubers alongside Jack. The fact that you two know each others and you are doing a collaborative makes me scream!! So happy, love you both 🥺💖 (sorry for my bad English)
I'm just gonna share the first few classics I've read for people who don't know where to start: Pride and prejudice - Jane Austen Alice in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll Through the Looking-glass - Lewis Carroll The picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde Frankenstein - Mary Shelley Some more tips: - find a copy that is annotated and has an introduction - find a book that you want to read because it's interesting, not because someone says you need to read it - start with modern classics or children's classics because the language is easier to understand (especially if english isn't your first language) - adaptations and even memes can help you to understand the plot - take your time and don't be too harsh on yourself if you get confused or don't understand everything. I still haven't read any Shakespeare because the language is a bid too hard to understand, but I'm gonna get there eventually and so do you (if you want to)
James Franco’s audible rendition of ‘Slaughterhouse Five’ is my favourite audiobook ever. Franco convinced me that I loved Vonnegut, so I tried to read another Vonnegut and realised that it was just Franco adding to much to the quality of V’s writing and delivering such a beautiful performance. Love it
this was such an amazing collab! love Noelle and love your videos Jack! Can't wait to watch more videos like this from you. p.s your voice and the way you talk and express yourself are worth a podcast

English lit students: lemme go read my Jayne Eyre 🧐
Me, a self proclaimed intellectual: lemme go read some Diary of a Wimpy Kid 😎
But you are enjoying yourself, that's the point of reading I guess
*cries in Wattpad Fanfiction*
@@LandelRey Hahahaa at least read at Ao3 I only resort to wattpad if I exhaust Ao3, Fanfiction.net and quotev. xD
Me reading manga✨

This was so much fun to listen to and interact with!! I can't wait to tune into the rest of them 🤠🤠🤠🤠

This is the crossover I didn't know I needed - UK studytube meets US booktube, YES PLEASE!!
WHATTTT i wasn't expecting this crossover but i love it
You don’t understand I’m *obsessed* with this colab
Sameeeeee omg!!!
I would have Stephen King write a book about my life and call it "Misery Again: But This Time I Did it to Myself"
Love you both!
Hahahah that is awesome
THIS ICONIC CROSSOVER!!!! ✨🔥
* screams * I have seen you two interact in the comments for a while now so this makes me so happy! Two of the best people in a video together ahhh :)
not me adding the song of achilles on to my TBR list just so I can take myself back to ready the percy jackson series as a child as it was CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED
I'm halfway through The Song of Achilles and my heart has broken already. The writing is phenomenal.
ur SO RIGHT abt percy jackson being criminally underrated, i just finished the first book yesterday and it was so fun
STRONG AGREEMENT this series was my first love and first serial reads of starting a book and not stopping until i had completely finished the story
@@danielacosta2835 OMG LITERALLY pjo is my love😩😩😩
11:00 omggg you guys don't know how much i needed this today, i'm doing a literature degree (french one tho) and it's been three years of struggling with this feeling of not knowing enough, not having read enough, not being enough, etc. and today it really makes me wonder if i'll be able to go further on with this field of study even though it really passionates me,, sooo what i'm saying is thank you, a lot, for talking about this
the panic in Noelle's eyes when Jack mentioned cracked spines and dog eared pages
WHEN I TELL YOU I ALMOST SCREAMED WHEN I SAW THIS I-
This chat just felt so natural, such a good idea! Looking forward to the next one
MY JAW FELLLL TOO THE FLOOR LOVE YOU GUYS
hahahahaa literally me when noelle said yes to the collab!!!
@@jack_edwards LMAO!!
"I went in strong and I might have peaked too soon." Me too after reading the song of Achilles as my first read this year😭
14:23
the idea that I won't be able to read everything out there makes me more sad than excited. that quote made me feel so calm. so beautiful.
Loooooooved this pairing. A dream team. You’re both comfort channels for me. Thank you both. Ps. Love a chinwag, both the action and the word.
this was the best collab i've ever seen on youtube, in any topic. there was such a great friend chemistry and I laughed and smiled the whole time and was very inspired!

Song Of Achilles is so beautiful. One of my favourite books ever, and I’m a Pisces too so I was a sobbing mess.
The most iconic collab i could ever dream of
How the hell he can read a lot of books and at the same time do a lot of videos. I need he’s motivation and productivity. Lol
this new book series thing is everything i could have ever wanted and more
10:00 Rebecca by Daphne De Maurier is a great classic to start with. Very easy to comprehend writing, interesting plot, iconic characters. This book is one of my faves, just trust me!♥️
So we all just collectively agreed this was a collab we knew we needed but never expected and just dropped everything we did to watch this
me looking at noelle's jawline everytime she turns to her bookshelf: 👁️👄👁️
Yes
Yes. Yes. Yes again.
omg yes
🤠 can’t believe i can hear my voice omg 😭 because of you, i have discovered noelle and i’m already in love with her
I love thisss! Though I feel like I already ‘perform’ the books in my mind as I’m reading them so I don’t really enjoy audiobooks, like at all...*hides in shame*
i LOVED this part of the conversation because i'd never thought of audiobooks as a performance before! i agree, i think i sort of perform them in my head, but i'm increasingly enjoying audiobooks the more i read because it feels a bit more relaxing and like my inner performer can have a lil' day off hahaha
‘Oh my God! Okay, it happening. Everybody stay CALM!’
what's the procedure everyone what's the procedure
this is a hill I will die on: most people who love murakami have just not read enough japanese lit. so much of what he's praised for (magical realism, his style of prose, etc) are present in A LOT of japanese fiction, but he gets a lot of the english speakers' support bc of good marketing, name recognition, and lack of exposure to wider jpn fiction
Not my two faves in one video omg this was exactly what I needed to procrastinate my studies
the collab we didn't know we needed
BITCHHH I HAVE NEVER CLICKED SO FAST IT'S MY TWO FAV PEOPLEEEEEE
My thoughts exactly 😭
this is EVERYTHING OH MY GOD! Jack - new video idea: read Noelle's favorite books
PLEASE
The booktube collab I didn’t know I needed. Also, I’m not sure if Fahrenheit 451 is considered a classic, but it definitely should be. Top notch science- fiction/ dystopian
Loved this collab! Liked Noelle's point of not knowing everything but still being able to bring something to class
THIS IS MY MOST FAVOURITEST COLLAB
This is the collab I didnt know I needed- loved this! You guys are two of my favourite booktubers!
What a dream collab, both you and Noelle have been putting out such great content over the past few months when we have needed it most!
15:47 ohmygoodness I literally just went out and bought Song of Achilles yesterday, feeling extremely confident with my purchase now ahaha
the crossover we never knew we needed
i’m reading song of achilles right now and it’s so beautiful that i don’t want to finish it because i don’t want it to be over and i know it’s going to wreck me 😭
for some reason Jack acquired sass in this video... and i'm begging it never leaves. just me?
i need a bookish podcast with you two now
Literally would make me so happy 😁
An iconic collab with two iconic people... guess my uni work will just have to wait because THIS IS AMAZING
the song of achilles is one of my favourite books! I never felt stupid or anything while reading it + I fell in love with it from the first page hehe
Noooooo. I love each of you as individuals so much, and having you both here together is honestly hurting my heart.
Thank you both!
I'm starting a lit and lang course at uni next year and I'm terrified everyone will have read more than me. Glad to know i'm not the only one! I adore both of you :)
@Farabee Pushpita hopefully Cardiff uni! what about you?? :)
@Farabee Pushpita omg that’s amazing, congrats!😌
"He's no Hemingway" sounds like something I--a person who has never read hemingway--would say so....
Jack needs to do a video reading like Noelle for a week. So like 7 of Noelle’s favourite books in a week x
Oh that would be fun!
Such a great conversation. Mentioning all the important stuff about what it's like being a lit student
the collab nobody expected but everyone needed
Great video! Enjoyed it very much! Jack, loved your answer about Truman Capote, one of my favorite writers. Totally agree about In Cold Blood, such a fascinating book!
This conversation contains all that is right with the world for me. Love watching you both separately but together is also magic.
i was smiling through the whole video !!! love you guys :D
This collab is EVERYTHING
Also as a music grad I totally relate to the discussion on the cannon because music has a similar stigma, some of the best, most brilliant pieces of music aren't in that cannon of what is considered important music
Jack's quick wit is truly a sight to behold at times xD
the collab we all DESERVED
I’m SCREAMING while watching this I LOVE THIS. You two, THE BEST COMBO EVER
Omg, if this was a podcast or book club, I would listen the fudge out of it. I know both of you are busy but I LOVED the content, much love 💖
Just the most iconic collaboration of our generation! No exaggeration! Thanks to both of you for being an absolute joy 🤠
🤠
I really enjoyed the stereo, please collab again guys you was so entertaining. I could listen to book podcasts all day.
thank you so so much for tuning in!!!
So enjoyed listening to the two of you chat. I took my family on holiday to Amsterdam on the basis of my daughter's love of The Fault In Our Stars - and had a fantastic time.

I just finished “a little life” and I HIGHLY CAUTION YOU
WOW How was it?
I have it in my tbr but I’m kinda terrified to pick it up
The collab I KNEW I needed
Insane, I listen to just TWO "Booktuber"s and here they are together. Wonderful content from both of you, please do this more often. Both of you are so much fun, relaxed and knowledgeable, a joy to see your videos.
Omg please please do that more often! It made me so happy to see you two together! Please do a podcast!
i've never clicked on something that fast
Watching you guys nerd out about books was just so wholesome
THIS COLLAB STOP THIS IS RIDICULOUSLY BEAUTIFUL
I'm demanding this collab to be a biannual thing because it was *everything*!
I'd love it if you did a video explaining your spotify playlists/ talking about your favourite songs /artists/ albums 💕
this collab is the most unexpected yet amazing surprise ever
I have been following Jack since my first year of Uni (and I am on my third and last year) and I recently discovered Noelle, who immediately became one my fave book tubers alongside Jack. The fact that you two know each others and you are doing a collaborative makes me scream!! So happy, love you both 🥺💖 (sorry for my bad English)
I'm just gonna share the first few classics I've read for people who don't know where to start:
Pride and prejudice - Jane Austen
Alice in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll
Through the Looking-glass - Lewis Carroll
The picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde
Frankenstein - Mary Shelley
Some more tips:
- find a copy that is annotated and has an introduction
- find a book that you want to read because it's interesting, not because someone says you need to read it
- start with modern classics or children's classics because the language is easier to understand (especially if english isn't your first language)
- adaptations and even memes can help you to understand the plot
- take your time and don't be too harsh on yourself if you get confused or don't understand everything. I still haven't read any Shakespeare because the language is a bid too hard to understand, but I'm gonna get there eventually and so do you (if you want to)
History has been made with this collaboration!
Thic books have my heart - they’re so much easier for me to go through, small and short stories forces me to take my time and I hate that shit.
both ur smiles are so contagious 🥺
AHHH NOELLE I LOVE HER, she is amazing.
Okay but a podcast or bookclub with you two would be amazing
James Franco’s audible rendition of ‘Slaughterhouse Five’ is my favourite audiobook ever. Franco convinced me that I loved Vonnegut, so I tried to read another Vonnegut and realised that it was just Franco adding to much to the quality of V’s writing and delivering such a beautiful performance.

Enjoyed this so much! Please make it a series with other booktubers/youtubers
this was the most comforting sunday video i can’t 🥺
My jaw dropped to the ground when I saw you did a video together! Very excited!
THIS IS THE BEST CROSSOVER EVER. OH MY WORDDD IM FREAKING OUT

Two of my favorites collab!? Made my day! Favorite RUclips video of 2021 so far! Love you both and love seeing you together! So. Much. Fun.
Imagine your books always being dumped in water cause you're stupid and don't close your water bottle well. Yes, that is me
You are not alone!
Same. I wanted to drink water during an exam and i completely missed my mouth and the water fell on my paper :)
