This is such a cool video idea! Would love if you wanted to do more (Taylor) albums. I haven’t watched the whole video yet but just wanted to leave a comment and let you know that I got very excited when I saw it, and even more when the first book you mentioned was Robin Hobb😂 I think in a weird way Hobb’s writing and Taylor’s work for me so well for similar reasons. They’re both very good at elegantly and seemingly effortlessly conveying emotions, I think. Anyway, great video!❤
OMG Grace this is phenomenal!! folklore is also my favourite album (up there with evermore and TTPD), so this video just sings to my soul. Loved hearing you interpret the songs and match books, I think you freaking nailed it (even the ones you felt less confident about). Especially the LPQ one, SPOT ON!! Also, for mad woman, I think They Never Learn by Layne Fargo is also a whole vibe. And Illicit Affairs makes me think of You Made a Fool of Death with Your Beauty by Akwaeke Emezi. Also, Betty is sooo good and your pick makes so much sense when you explained it. For me, Jas Hammonds' books come to mind for that one. Okay I can go on for days here hahaha, thanks for putting in the effort of making this, I looooved it!! 🤩🤩
Ahhh thank you Esmay 😍 They Never Learn would also be a great pick for mad woman I totally agree!! I’ll have to look into Jas Hammonds I’ve never heard of her!
Folklore is one of my favourite albums of all time as well!! A true masterpiece! Ooh yes, I would definitely agree with seven and The Ocean at the End of the Lane, they both have that nostalgia for the freedom of childhood, but also a lot of darkness, especially when looking back at childhood from an adult perspective. The Winter of the Witch and mad woman is a perfect pairing! The entire Winternight trilogy fits the vibe of that song so well. I feel like The Witch's Heart might also fit for mad woman, too. There are so many books on here I am so compelled to read now and will definitely listen to the songs you've matched them with when I do! My top priority to read from this list is Spells for Forgetting. I would love to see your ideas for other albums!
I think maybe for this is me trying it could be catcher in the rye?? I read it a while ago so I don’t know if it fits that well but that is what came to my mind

Listened to the album a thousand times for us! That is some video preparation! 😅
I’m nothing if not dedicated 😂

I have a feeling you’ll enjoy Spells for Forgetting! And maybe I need to move Witch’s Heart up my radar haha 👀
Such a cool concept! Love it!
Thank you 😄

Oh yeah I could see that! Lots of trauma in that book!
