    I only just found your channel but I love it ! Also 1984 is my favourite book ever and memory police sounds like it deals with many similar themes and ideas so I would recommend reading 1984 first

      I'm so glad you've been enjoying the videos :')
      Ah, no way! That makes me so excited to read 1984. Sadly, I started The Memory Police this month for a book club with a friend so I will have to read 1984 afterwards.

    I listened to "BIg Magic" and loved it. I have never read "Eat, Pray, Love", but watched the movie this past weekend and LOOOOOOVED it! I must read it now! Have you read "City of Girls"? If you haven't...it's a must!!

      Oh my goodness, pleaseeee read 'Eat, Pray, Love'. It is so special to me and if you loved the movie then you will definitely love the book. No way! You are the third person on this video to recommend me 'City of Girls', I will most definitely have to read it. x

    Big Magic is one of my favorite books! I haven’t read Eat,Pray Love but it’s on my shelf. I also pick up all of her work as well when I see it.

    I love Big Magic! I’ve read it twice and loved it even more the second time. Also City of Girls by Liz Gilbert is a super fun fast read :)

    I notice you like switching between your usual accent and an English (??) accent I suppose? haha. Is it just a thing you like to do or for some particular reason?

    • @aleshortforalejandra
      @aleshortforalejandra  3 года назад +1

      haha oops! honestly, I blame the fact that I have spent some time in England in the past few years and I became even more enamoured with their accent than I already was so I would practice it for fun and now I'm afraid I slip in and out of it without realizing.
