Great Gatsby is a great short read! Open throat sounds like nothing I’ve ever heard of before, tempted to add to my TBR list. One of my shortest reads was a chilling book I read for school a while back called The Most Dangerous Game by Richard Connell. I think it’s only 50pages!
@@dubbushehe I mention that book in one of my previous videos! Read that one in high school but looking to reread it sometime here. Such a good book I need to revisit here soon. Thanks for the comment !!
Waving to you from Draconia! If I could be so bold as to suggest another book for your list. The Dragon Codex, my latest YA Fantasy, is an educational adventure with Dragons, Magic, and Graphic Design.
Hello again! I haven't read any of these 5 yet, but The Great Gatsby is on my TBR. I've just added “of cattle and men” and “heaven has no favorites” to that list. They both sounded really good, though I'll have to read the former in English in the hope of understanding it then. As for your question about what I'm going to read at the weekend... I hope something. Yesterday I finished Matthew Perry's autobiography and haven't been able to decide on a new book yet... I'll have to process that a bit first. I don't really have any short books. My shortest ones are all around 300, although you can easily finish them in a day or a weekend.
Welcome back, always great to see you here! Those two you added to TBR list are so so good, check them out for sure. I just finished a book here not 15 minutes ago and need to dwell on it as well. Picking the next book can be challenging at times, hoping something jumps off my shelf in due time here for the weekend.
@@BookswithSam1 Sometimes a large selection is not always the best. I'm struggling with whether to try my hand at a science fiction novel (the current trend would be “Project Hail Mary” by Andy Weir) or whether to venture into the great Game of Thrones turmoil...
@@CharlieCatHimself13 ooo thats a tough dilema, I would say go for the Game of Thrones now and then if you need a break from the action, but are still in the mood to read that type of genre, that is where project hail mary can be read. Now I remember you saying that you are not the biggest fan of audio books, but I hear that Project Hail Mary specifically is superb on audio, just throwing that out there if you wish to take in a novel through another means
@@domdag225 good to see ya here again man! I have heard good things of Piranesi, actually just got a copy of it about a month or so ago. Great minds think alike :)
@ It’s good to be back 😂 I hope you like it! It’s one of those books that makes your feel like you’re in a different world while you’re reading it :) 👍

@@mariad3569 dang that is a short one, I’ll have to give that one a look! Thank you!
Into the Wild by John Krakauer can be finished in 7-8 hours and has made me very introspective in the past few weeks since reading it

@@BookswithSam1 I've heard that too, but only from Americans. Unfortunately, I don't know if the German version is as good...
@ ah understandable for sure, pardon my ignorance in that regard to my recommendation
My favorite short works I’ve read are Sun and Steel by Yukio Mishima, Too loud a solitude by Hrabal, and the stranger by Albert Camus
@@satdenkoenig You have some great taste here! Added Sun and Steel to my tbr
I've never heard of open throat sounds very interesting
It is like nothing I have ever read before, give it a shot!
@@BookswithSam1 I added it to my Amazon cart to get on my next buying binge 😂
@@Already-Overbooked oh lets go 🤣 let me know how you like it!
Was watching your other videos as you posted this one 😂
@@henryhill8672 a full on binge mode, I love it! Thanks for all the support it means a lot !
“Piranesi” is also a good short book! Pretty weird tho, just fyi. Great video, I’m adding Open Throat to my list :)
