I’m always amazed by how little cutting this channel’s videos need. Ariel could be a newscaster.
YESSSSS I TOTALLY AGREE. this is one of the reasons that she's my absolute favourite youtuber. She doesn't edit stuff out. And she doesn't need to. I love that.
🙈🙈🙈🙈
Everyone else:
Ariel: I am going to exist in three centuries
I only have to live til 102 to do that woot
@@thornprick2645 weird flex hahaha 104 here
@@Luis-ej4ei it is a weird flex. What a weird thought that when she mentioned that goal, I immediately decided "wouldn't want elderly me to feel like I let myself down by dying before my third century." Like obviously it's just a silly thing but I'm like "no no. I don't need that kind of pressure."
@@Luis-ej4ei I also already get to say I've lived in two millenniums and annoy peers two years my junior by saying, "ah you wouldn't get it. I'm from a different millennium." if I so choose. I've never done it. But I could.
@@thornprick2645 Hahaha I'll definitely use "I'm from another millennium". I always thought about how we're gonna sound extra old when we're actually old because, unlike someone only a few years younger than me who will say they're from the 00's, I'm gonna be like "I was born in the 20th century, son. Nineteen hundred ninety six". The spelling is even longer in my native language haha
Ok I'm not a cat person, but your cat collecting red stuff caught my attention. Maybe I'll reconsider.
“It’s a love story set in a pumpkin patch. That’s all I know, and all I NEED to know”
I felt that.
The whole vibe of this video is just so good?? I'm pretty sure I just smiled for 18 minutes
💕💕💕💕💕
Me too I'm so happy
I think The Bell Jar is a really accessible classic.
In terms of the plot, it's rough. But when it comes to actually reading and understanding the writing, I think it's something that people who aren't accustomed to classics can read easily.
sheets is the BEST!!! read it asap & tell me all your thoughts!
Hey!
I will!! I just finished Pumpkinheads so it's up next for me!!!
Jesse please read Wonder, it's amazing. Pleeeaaassseee!?!?!?!
I just finished On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous and I cant stop thinking about it. It was absolutely amazing, breathtaking and other great things!
As someone else born in 1994, living to 106 is my new goal LOL
There’s also a Japanese film of the book “Before Your Coffee Gets Cold”. I’ve watched it on an airplane and I really enjoyed it :)
I'll definitely check it out!
i love these videos because you don't get the books that are "popular." you get books that grab your attention! Really makes me love you more!
Sheets seems so so cute!
Jay G right?!!!
one of my cats is obsessed with red things too!!! he only has one toy that's red, but he hides it everywhere and i frequently go to bed only to find it tucked under the covers haha!
The crazy mark-down of those short story collection is the best proof of them not selling, I guess. Such a shame, it is such a cool format, as you said!
Yes yes yes exactly!!! Perfectly put!
@@ArielBissett great video
You should also read Sylvia Plath's journals if you get the chance. There are some seriously beautiful prose in that book.
I really resonate with Sylvia Plath. Gonna add that to my To Reads
Bell Jar is one of my favourite books if all time. Such an incredible book. I love short stories ❤
Pleaaaase do the short story readathon! I adore short story collections and anthologies and I have a couple of good recommendations! But I would love to find out what collections YOU love! If you need recs, I can give them over on Patreon! :) BELATED HAPPY BIRTHDAY ARIEL! (I just celebrated my birthday too!)
$35 seems rather expensive for books, even hardbacks - would love to see you discuss the differences in prices of books as you’ve obviously bought books in a few different countries.
EDIT: I've just looked this up in £ and it converts to about £20 - a lot of uk hardbacks don't quite reach that - I think £18.99 is the most I've personally spent.
I'm a bookseller and we have seen a rise in the cost of books. Not sure why but brand new hardbacks have all been coming in around that $30 price point. It sucks because not a lot of people can afford that so they turn to Amazon where they can get it way cheaper (Amazon takes a loss on books because they make so much profit with other items). That's why there are fewer and fewer indie bookstores, we just can't make a living when Amazon will always beat our prices.
That's so sad! In Germany we have something called "Buchpreisbindung", which means a binding price for a book everyone. You can only get cheaper books if they're damaged or the publisher wants to get rid of some remaining stock. So small bookstores have a chance to survive against huge bookstore chains which could lower the price if they wanted to.
I’m not sure if we’re speaking in canadian or american dollars but in Finland a regular hardcover is about 30€ which is 43 CAD and 33 USD :(
@@rapprenee that's about what you can expect for CAD and US dollars. It's crazy!
35$?!?! That‘s crazy. In Germany that book is 16.49€ at the moment, which would be 18.36 USD and 24 CAD. Isn‘t it weird that a book published in America costs more there than in other countries (e.g. Germany)?!
I love hearing you talk about the books you’re excited to read. It’s infectious ! 🥰🥰
ALSO: you should read The Memory Police by Yokō Ogawa. Translated from Japanese, and it’s short!!!
Stories For Coffee I nearly bought it a few weeks ago!!! I definitely want to check it out!
The bell jar is one of my favourite books! There’s something about stories on women having a mental breakdown that HOOKS ME 🤤👌🏼(see also: franny and zooey)
My favorites in highschool were always the bell jar and the awakening so I feel this 😂
I love short story collections. Shirley Jackson, Angela Carter and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s are some of my favourites. As well as Her Body and Other Parties.
the bell jar is a huge surprise like it's much better than you'd expect. I HIGHLY recommend her journals too if you like her writing. I actually think her best writing is in her journals.
I also love short stories. Three of my favorite, iconic short story writers are Flannery O’Connor, Franz Kafka, and Ernest Hemingway!
That what I love about books is the cover and title are so unique and you never know what you’re going to get based off the cover and title. When I saw “before the coffee get cold” I thought it would be a romance type book. But hearing what it really about now I wanna read it. Teaches me to really pay more attention to the saying don’t read a book by the cover. Now I’m gonna start searching more based off the synopsis and not the cover bad habit that I have because I’m missing on so many amazing books
We need a video about your collection of books about writing! 📖✨
Ariel I love watching your book haul videos! You always seem to post them when I haven't read in a while and after watching the video I get SO motivated to start reading again 😀
please do the short stories collection video!!!! as someone who wants to get into them bc i also like short books but dont know where to start it would be great to see some recommendations.
I highly recommend Ray Bradbury's The Illustrated Man! There's a lot of variety topic-wise, but all of the stories are top-notch quality and only take about ten minutes to read!
Oh my god, I love all the colours you always wear!!!! Always makes me super happy to see 🙌
I just love your reviews. You’re the reason I fell in love with George Orwell. Thank you !
The idea of wanting a specific age to die is smart. I’m gonna choose one, too. I think 112 is good. So 2112!
I pick 1736. Shoot for the moon, land among the stars.
youre going to love the bell jar!
This was so wholesome and made me so happy.
I have actually started Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep and your description of it enlightened me to the plot more than actually reading some of the book
I think she was explaining the plot of the book she got, A Scanner Darkly.
Your book hauls are always my favorites because I find so many fantastic new reads through you!
Sheets is so good! Very delightful! And the art style (the landscapes and backgrounds especially) is so magickal!
before the coffe gets cold!!! aa i really loved that book!! nice find
i've read my year of rest and relaxation and i loved it! feels like a modern bell jar, so pretty cool that you have both of them in the haul lol
Love this!! Love the recommendations!! ALSO super clutch bc it reminded me to update my Goodreads lists 🤪
Your style is amazing! ❤️ happy birthday Ariel!
What a great thing to wake up to😁, Happy birthday! 🌼
Love you, Ariel! ♥️
Ilysm ariel🥺💗!!
I’ve had How to Write An Autobiographical Novel in my online cart for sooo long! I’ll have to pick it up soon. Also, Sheets looks like it’s gonna be great! Happy late birthday, Ariel!!
Oh my god, Ariel!!!! That is MY plan! To live in 3 centuries. But I'll have to live until I am 112... and 1/2. Good luck to us both!
Also, I would be interested in that short story collection video.
Also, also, that PKD book sounds like a Netflix show with Paul Rudd that I just saw a trailer for.
Also, also, also... I'm currently reading "The Babysitters Coven" by Kate Williams and I think you would like it bc it's a fun teen novel with witchy stuff. I'm enjoying it a lot because it's more FUN than DARK. At least so far.
Love your energy!! Keep up the great work!!
Before Your Coffee Gets Cold sounds great!!! I also love Jean’s channel 😊
AAAAHHHH I JUST FINISHED ON EARTH WE'RE BRIEFLY GORGEOUS AND IM STILL IN AWE FROM IT !! you're the first booktuber i've seen mention it !!!
I read the bell jar because I grew up hearing people talk about it. I didn’t expect to like it but I absolutely loved it and I think you will too!
Happy birthday, Ariel🧡🧡🧡
Btw, your makeup look is amazing!
natalijaa my accountant didn’t even mention it, haha!
Happy birthday Ariel!!
Love your eye make up and hat!!! And what you do!
YES to a short story collection readathon!!
hope you had a wonderful birthday 🧡
On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous sounds amazing!
LOL a nest of red things, that's adorable 😂
The Bell Jar is a good book :))
Wild has been on my radar!
great haul ^^
AAAHHH this video was so satisfying. I'd be definitely up for the short stories review!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!💕💕
I really loved Ocean Vuong’s poetry collection Night Sky with Exit Wounds! I wasn’t able to get through On Earth We’re briefly gorgeous when I tried to read it this summer, but I’m going to try again around Christmas time. It is so poetic that you really have to pay attention to what he’s doing. Happy Birthday Ariel! Hope you have a wonderful 25th year!
Happy Birthday Ariel and yes we are interested in everything you do. You should read man in the high castle.
13:05 so when are those "novellas for the win" pins available? 😂 I would so buy them!
Okay!!! But The Bell Jar has to be one of my favourite books OF ALL TIME!!! I read it while I was studying and wrote an essay comparing the perils of society's norms in The Bell Jar and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (Ken Kesey) and I fell in love with it!!! READ IT READ IT READ IT AND FALL IN LOVE
i love short stories too! i think the idea for the video where you read all of your short story collections sounds cool.
I love the short story idea!!!
Happy birthday Ariel! 🧡 Your fingernails caught my attention tho! Love it! Love you 😘
Happy birthday Ariel
I always want to have more discussions about books and writing and be more productive artistically after watching these videos. I would be super interested in a massive short story collection review :D
Heck yeah, I'm Subbed for Tiny Books! *2020 short story video: Can't wait*
yayy! short story collections! (just read fen by Daisy Johnson and lovvved it!)
HAPPY BIRTHDAAAY!
Obsessed with Ariel in this hat wow much cute
"On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous" wow, just the sound of that title sounds amazing! Like whatever the book is about will just have epic writing and stories. Wonderful choice of words, how does one write like that?!?
I wonder how one writes like that...
His poems are SO GOOD
Lol my birthday is today ! Happy Birthday, Ariel !!!
ur book hauls are the equivalent of a cosy hug
Lovely video. Love the readathon idea!
I love it when u talk about books
I am up for a short story reading month next year, most definitely. As I want to get into reading more short stories and somehow I feel I still have to unlock this specific writing format for myself.
Definitely interested in that short story readathon!
I'm so excited you've got "On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous"😉
I tried picking it up as an audiobook, and it didn't really work for me (because of narrator, not content), but I can't wait to start it as a physical read! It gives me strong lyrical vibes of "Call Me By Your Name".
Happy belated birthday! Please read your books.
Sheets is AMAZING!
Thank you for the video! I hope to read more short stories in the near future, but never know where to start.
this is kind of random, but oml i love your laugh... it’s so adorable and contagious
I can't wait for you to read The Bell Jar. It's one of the books I've reread the most, probably like 5 or 6 times since I first read it when I was 15 or 16. For some reason it is a great book to read in the bath (in my opinion) if you're into that.
Also Wild is SO good. No shade to Tiny Beautiful Things, but Wild is *everything.* I need to reread that too....
I'd love to see a review of all your short story collections! I really want to read more short stories but have no idea where to start!
Watching this was such a lovely time
also bought Before the Coffee Gets Cold recently. Really want to get around to it soon
On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous is so stunning, I was blown away when I read it!
the bell jar is my all-time favorite book :) i can't wait to hear your thoughts!
I'm currently reading "a scanner darkly" . I have no idea where i'm going but I'm enjoying hahaha
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Yeet! Hbd!!!
Happy birthday 🎉
Watching you is like a gift I swear
THAT COPY OF THE BELL JAR😍🤯🤯
I loved Pumpkin Heads ♥️
This "Mordern Love" book... I NEED IT!
I'd love to see a short book readathon/review video!!
You made me really want to pick up a Scanner Darkly! It's been on my radar for years, but I never realized how incredibly fun the concept is!
Also I'm currently reading Homesick for Another World, heard you talking about it and thought "I've never heard of When Watched", open Goodreads and it recommends me the latter based on the Moshfegh! They clearly matched well. :'D
A Scanner Darkly is great! It's the only Philip K Dick that I've read, but I loved it. It's so trippy and confusing, but in the best way! Also check out the animated film with Keanu Reeves after you've read it :)
I am just discovering your channel. You are SOOOO captivating!
I miss you! These are great books!!
You’re the best to watch!
Ariel: Let me know if you'd be interested in that.
Me: I'm interested in every single video you do. I am obsessed (in a non-creepy way, I hope).
