I always associate the Hunchback of Notre Dame with intense feelings of fear, shame and regret. Not because I've actually read it yet but because one time I used it to kill a really big spider.
I laughed so hard lmaoooo
this made my day, thank you lmao
Did not expect that lol
@@aidahhh Neither did the spider :(
this comment is making me insane
You know how that amazing old book smell kind of smells like vanilla? Did you know it actually IS vanilla? Old book pages when they break down produce vanillin, the same chemical that gives vanilla its smell and taste 🤩
They have this essential oil? Perfume scent for sale on Etsy. Haven't bought it. But I 👍. One of the most HEAVENLY scents on earth. That aged book smell.📚
Now whisper that to me
I was just talking about this to someone the other day. I read that fact about vanillin and what I don’t get is how anyone on this earth has smelled an old book and thought “that smells like vanilla.” In all my life never ever EVER has an old book smelled good to me. It has never smelled like anything other than dust and mildew no matter the book or the place it came from. And I am so utterly confused by the vanilla thing now.
@@hyliannative9247 agree with you
I never associated it with the smell of vanilla, but after you said that I can see it.
Your book hauls are literally my favorite! It’s like digital book club 😅.
Don’t throw away the sleeve that was on the back cover of The Hunchback of Notre Dame! The Seasons Editions put a bookmark in the sleeve👍 beautiful!
Hi Emma, if you ever feel doubt, just remember that this lil’ community here really benefits (in numerous ways) from your efforts. Have a nice week 🌞
Huckleberry Finn is a continuation of "The adventures of Tom Sawyer" book from the same author actually! I read it in around 5th or 6th & 7th grade (both books) & it was really fun teenagehood book literally ❤
The Hunchback of Notre Dame is one of my most favorite books.. Life of ALL TIME! Hugo's descriptions literally allow you to see Paris as if it is in front of you
Yes, that 30 page chapter where he describes Paris from above is quite good. The whole thing is good, really. And IMHO the psychology of Esmerelda is decades ahead of its time.
@@jamesduggan7200 totally agree!
You always have the cutest outfits, Emma! I love that top. You look like a pirate fairy today with that red necklace, yellow bandana combo *chef's kiss*
oh i'm currently reading notre-dame de paris! so far i really love how it talks about architecture and the connection between quasimodo and the notre-dame (which, at the time that victor hugo was writing the book, was a deeply scarred and mutilated building--the novel actually inspired a restoration of the cathedral)
never clicked so fast -
Ok
fr
you look so pretty, I love your jewlery and the colors! thank you for the video :)
I’m about to sit my final exams for my economics masters. I am incredibly anxious about them as this academic year has been nothing but a struggle. I am so glad you uploaded a video today as your videos are so calming and i love seeing someone love their academics as i did during my undergraduate. Thankyou emmie so much for your calming and relaxing videos every week they have honestly helped me so much in the last year ☺️
Omg I loved Lud-In-The-Mist!!! It's so great, definitely underated, and one of the first fantasy books - which happens to be by a woman!! 🔥
Lud-in-the-Mist is a wonderful, intoxicating read. It may require prior excursions to both Victorian and early 20th century mythopoeic works to be truly savored, though.
Still, if you do find yourself enjoying Mirrlees, you'll eventually obsess over John Crowley's Little Big -- and, to a lesser extent, Gaiman's Stardust, Emma Bull's War for the Oaks and Jonathan Carroll's The Land of Laughs.
Here's to your journeys beyond the fields we know.
I just want you to know that you are impacting me in so many good ways Emmie,and that I love you.
This video was soo cozy, kinda like a book club - I usually avoid book haul videos, but I just adore you and your general vibe and I thought to give this a shot and BOY WAS IT WORTH IT! I have so many cool books to add to my tbr now and it's all thanks to you. Your blog is very unique and refreshing and I'm a huge fan!!!!
I dream about the day that I’m gonna open a emmie video and she’ll say: Ok, so I got the Silmarillion…
Meanwhile I’ll keep enjoying every minute of your book hauls because they are so cozy and fun to watch
much love from brazil
Me as a german love your old rainer maria rilke books😍
I'm in love with your room! 😵😻
Ahh I love Du Maurier! Rebecca was the first book that got me into reading, I very much recommend it 🥰
I hope you love Mirabai!! I'm not much into poetry but I had to read her poems for a class I took in college, and I instantly fell in love! It's all very short but so impactful! 😁 Every day I consider re-reading it lol
I love Lud in the Mist. Super underrated and I think you'll love it too. Also loved My Cousin Rachel. Kammy (sp?) has great taste haha
The way I get an instant serotonin boost every time I see that emmie has uploaded.
Same here :)
Hi i just want to know how you get those emojis?! 🫶💐
In case you haven't seen it yet, there's a bookmark attached to the back sleeve of your "Hunchback" book! 😊
books aside, you're so pretty !!
The Sonnets to Orpheus are so beautiful, just read them earlier this year. What lovely editions!
Yes, 2013/2014 was definitely peak Richard Siken time on tumblr hahaha, I love Crush.
Thank you for the easy-to-understand explanation 😊 I like books more every time!
Oh my god, I literally jumped when I saw Actual Air. David Berman's work (both his poetry and his music) means so much to me. I cannot wait to see your thoughts on that collection, I hope you love it! (And if you want to check out his music, I think "Pretty Eyes" and "The Wild Kindness" are his best songs and great places to start.)
The old Rilke editions are so cool! The old German font is kind of difficult to read, it actually says "Das Stunden Buch" (Book of Hours), so the first letter is supposed to be a weird looking S instead of G ;)
Thanks! I couldn't read it, so this was a big help!
Your room is dreamy ❤️ the day I started watching your booktube videos I sink my teeth into classics and love them to death. Btw you should do a room tour 🥺
Since you said you need more fun books you should totally read The Raven Cycle. It's the absolute perfect balance of plot and character in my opinion. There are some darker themes and topics sprinkled throughout but overall The Raven Cycle is just so fucking fun to read.
I second this!!! Emma gotta read these books!
my fav YA series of all time
i think she actually have read this a long ago!
@@valentinatoscano8 I've subbed for Emma since 500 followers, but I don't think she actually read them. I'll check her GR account.

Lud-in-the-Mist is one of the Ballantine Adult Fantasy series, which are now collectible. They all had spectacular wrap-around covers, and re-introduced many wonderful if forgotten epic fantasy novels to readers eager for more after Tolkien was re-discovered in the late 1960s, early 1970s.
The Origins of Satan by Elaine Pagels may interest you, she's a premiere scholar on these matters. Hitchens was a bit strident, but raised good points.
The Name of the Rose introduced me to Eco's work, and I'd also recommend Foucault's Pendulum if you like TNOTR. Layered stuff, scholarly and playful. He's a semiologist so he tends to like symbols and signifiers.
Hi Emma! Love your book hauls. I always take notes of the titles of the books. The Hunchback of Notre Dame and The Name of the Rose are fantastic! Love your gorgeous blouse! Good readings! Ciao! 😍📚✨
I'm glad someone sent you Crush; I was gonna do it if no one else did! Siken is a pretty cool dude. After giving the book to one of my friends, he reached out to Siken to see if he could get permission to write a choral version of a poem from Crush. Siken was all "Heck yes" about it.
Your videos always makes feel better somehow and makes me want to keep living, see your enthusiasm for books rekindles my enthusiasm for books, so thanks:)
Greetings from El mero Chihuahua!
I have that EXACT copy of the Hunchback and I have yet to read it just because it looks so pretty sitting on my shelf. My best friend is French and we joke about Hugo all the time so I definitely need to get to it. Beautiful haul! 🖤
Omg! I just spotted Lud-in-mist on a list of most beautifully and intrinsically written fantasy books ever list a few weeks back. And I was shook. Like, even LOTR was on the special add on mentions down on the footnotes of this list. And this book was in the top three or something. I just didn’t double think and got it. But then I got a little scared if it would be out of my understanding scope😂 Now that you’ve got it I am so so happy!!! Yayy! I’ll probably read this along with you whenever you read it. 🤗 I read Dante’s Inferno like that and it was so easy!
Yay, someone else who appreciates David Hume! His thoughts on government and on beauty are really profound and ahead of his time. Loved Hunchback but liked Les Miserables even better. New to the channel but loving it so far!
Yes, you and have must similar taste in reading. However, I'm not sure I understand the need for six books of Les Miserables, nevertheless that's what Hugo gave us.
@@jamesduggan7200 The first version I read was shortened not abridged so it left out a lot of the unnecessary description. I think that helped. The story is beautiful but Hugo does tend to go on and on.
Yes, The Name of the Rose and Notre Dame de Paris!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Lud-In-The-Mist is strange and wonderful. Hope Mirlees also wrote on of the great long modernist poems, Paris which I love. Once you've read it I recommend Lolly Willowes by Sylvia Townsend-Warner.
Just wanna say that the video i'm waiting for more than anything is 300k bloopers omg i can't wait mote than that
Hey Emma :) I sent you a book through book depository (The Stationery Shop) back in February, and was wondering if it got to you alright. It was my first time sending a gift to someone that way so I don’t know if I did it right 😅.
Love your videos btw. They always inspire me to pick up a book especially when I’m in such a reading slump like today. 💕
You are literally my favorite booktuber because I love how you can literally read the history of the Bible and can also vibe with a ya paranormal book. I hate when people try to put readers in boxes when a single person can enjoy so many different types of books
Victor Hugo is one of my all time favorites, and The Hunchback is the best of the best. I still giggle at the thought of Gringoire and the goat, and the writing is so evocative and gorgeous. I also love a short story he wrote called The Last Days of A Condemned Man, which shows how the death penalty is state sanctioned torture.
I just finished a Prime freebie this morning (The Moonlight Child) so I’m all ready for a new book. I’ve had The Name Of The Rose for at least a decade now. I think I’ll finally read it! Love your ponytail w/scarf. Lovely.
I love the way you read books 📚
You're the one I watch for books idea, because of you my book journey has expanded so much! I now have over 25 books to read :D
Who are we: bookworms.
What do we live for: book hauls.
exactly
The way you flipped through The Name of the Rose itched my brain in the most satisfying way I watched it like 10 times
Omg i read lud in the mist this year for my fantasy lit course in uni and absolutely loved ut
YES CRUSH IS SO GOOD EMMA
Your videos bring me inner peace😌
something about you makes me feel so peaceful
Love that you are so excited about the old German books! We had to read these old texts in school written in the old German type and i never thought someone would find the old type fascinating (it was always a bother to read XD). But I do love Rilke as well so I can understand the excitement about old books :)
I came across the Seasons editions recently and I can not get over how gorgeous they all are!! Love your book hauls as usual 💗
'Navigating Early' is pretty good, one of my favorite, so cute ❤️
aghh some of those covers are absolutely divine!! the hugo book and that green color - my jaw dropped
we need another book haul!!
If you want to get back into Italian you should read in other words by jhumpa lahiri if you havent already. Its dual translation and lahiri writes about her experience studying italian as a second language. I dont study italian but as a fan if learning languages i found it rly insightful!
i'm not ashamed to say i've checked your channel for new videos like 5 times today. Now I can be at ease
hi emma! thank you for another beautiful video. I feel a lot better now, thank you so much! hope you are doing well.
loved your choice of books and the way you describe the books. RARELY do I like ads, the but the product you represent seems great and it is well explained with examples. You a great saleswoman.
I think i would honestly cry of happiness if you made philosophy vlogs!! It's my guilty pleasure and I love watching other people dive into it and think critically about it...also you look stunning !!!
Hume's two greatest philosophical works were "A Treatise on Human Nature" and the "Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding". He wrote the "Treatise" first but it was too radical for the intellectual community of his time and was not widely read. So then he wrote the "Enquiry" which is a shorter and more accessible account of what he wanted to say in the "Treatise". Most philosophers would agree (I think?) that the Treatise is the more systematic book while the Enquiry is the best starting point for Hume's philosophy. But Hume is a very clear writer so you could start with any of his books or essays and be completely fine imo.
Also, reading Hugo has been on my to do list forever but I keep trying and failing. Excited to see how you make out!
I‘m from germany and this special font is actually called „sütterlin“ and was used for quite some time (early 20th century) in almost every printed book in germany.
I work at a German archive, that's not Sütterlin. Sütterlin looks more like Kurrentschrift, where the e's look like squished n's. This looks more like Fraktur.
I really enjoyed Lud-In-The-Mist! The exploration of separating the fae from the human and how damaging that is was really cool, and it's just such an interesting little read. I feel like once you've read it you can really see its influence on later authors writing fae fantasy.
A good follow up for Descartes would be his correspondence with Elisabeth of Bohemia (their letters are published in a pretty accessible book). Elisabeth wrote to Descartes and challenged him on his work and pointed out some of the issues with his work and especially his dualism. Elisabeth is one of the very wonderful female philosophers whose contributions to philosophy are underappreciated, so from both a history of philosophy and from a philosophical perspective their correspondence is really interesting.
Hume's moral philosophy is really interesting. You might want to start with that. His account of moral judgement is based on empathy (sympathy is his term, but it means the same thing as empathy does now), and he is one of the first philosophers who really think about the role of empathy in the moral life. A Treatise of Human Nature would be the book to go to if you are interested in that (especially book 3).
For Philosophy you should also try Iliad Poem of Force by Simone Weil. Simone Weil pretty heavily influenced Anne Carson, so she's worth looking into if you like Anne Carson. Poem of Force is both an interpretation of Homer and an opportunity for Weil to write about her own thoughts on war and violence and how it shapes the psychology of everyone involved. Weil is a wonderful philosopher who lived during the early 20th century and died part way through WW2. She thought a lot about caring for others and about how violence, affliction, and pain shape our perceptions and behaviours.
ah David Berman is so good! he sadly died recently, but speaks on one of my favourite songs by The Avalanches and I found him that way when I was looking for the lyrics.
also love the Mona the Vampire reference, that theme tune lives rent free in my head most days x
I was on RUclips when I got the notification! The best part of my Sunday routine!
Love The Name of the Rose. I remember my first music history class at Uni and the lecturer reading a description of the mass from it. I need to find my copy and read it again.
Emma you look so beautiful! 😩🥰
We have very different taste When it comes to books, but I love watching you. You're a very likable chill person.
Sunday is just emma's day 💕
hi emmie :) just want to let you know that i was talking to a coursemate about war and peace and it turns out we both watch your youtube channel!! it was a very fun moment. love from sweden 💗
Oh you need to watch buffy! It’s so good
After you read the book The Name of the Rose, you should watch the movie from 1986 with Sean Connery. Brilliant!
Not the Jared part 💀
The Seasons editions are sooo beautiful 😍
I love your nails!
After The Name of the Rose it is important that you read Ficciones by Jorge Luis Borges! The cherry on top!
i studied philosophy and lit in the uk - no bible, but we did do descartes and hume! definitely start with descartes, his meditations are such a good way in: fun voice/narrator + introduction to some of the cornerstones of western philosophy ~
Here some novels
Germinal by emile zola
Chaka by thomas moflo(i don't remember his name exactly)
The plague by albert Camus
Emma!! i read inviable man for my LIT class and i highly suggest reading it with the audio book , the atmosphere that it adds is amazing !!! hope you enjoy
I ready Invisible Man many years ago and I’m thinking it may be time for a reread. It’s definitely a pencil in hand sort of book and it’s filled with so much metaphor and abstract imagery.
There were a couple of times in this video where you made me laugh out loud. Thanks for making me feel less stressed. Also, thanks for bringing more books I would be interested in to my attention!
omg I didn't expect a german book, greetings from Germany! 🦋😂 I love the english-german pronunciation
Yes! Lud-In-The-Mist!!! It deserves so much more recognition. I read it on a recommendation because I liked Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell and it was so good!. It is an older book, so the language is slightly harder to click in to, but once you do, it's very rewarding. Also, the pacing is slow, but worth sticking with.
Crush is INCREDIBLE i hope you love it
Your outfit and jewelry is soo cute!!
Huckleberry Finn is fun if you’ve read the Odyssey! There are some parallels as they go down the river!
emmie emmie emmie i love this video and all the books! you look incredibly stunning aswell.
Emma, this is so random, but your voice is soo beautiful😍
I love your literary book hauls! That copy of The Hunchback of Notre Dame is so beautiful, ahh. I also want to read some Victor Hugo.
as a philosophy major i would absolutely ADORE philosophy vlogs pls do!!!!!
im obsessed with oxford edition and also collecting it! 🙌😍
An old book tells more than one story!
love u Emmieeee !!! 💓
I love your videos! I would really love to hear about your take on the dark artifices by Cassandra Clare. It’s a Shadowhunters series, but I feel like people who have read the mortal instruments and the infernal devices (predecessors of TDA) didn’t read TDA because they didn’t like TMI and TID. And I feel so bad because the dark artifices is honestly SUCH a good series.
Thats v funny that you picked up hume and descartes! cause hume’s philosophy is in direct response to descartes and a rejection of it- (empiricism vs rationalism crudely). In fact you can compare it side by side and see how much it addresses descartes directly in the text even tho hume doesnt name him
I believe Mexican Gothic was inspired by The Yellow Wallpaper, so you may want to check that out. Also, the blurb for The Hacienda said it was partially like Rebecca, which is another Daphne Du Maurier book.
