The 1995 adaptation of Pride and Prejudice is the best, Colin and Jennifer will always be my Mr. Darcy and Lizzy! Enjoyed seeing what you will be reading this year and just love how you will not let Ben be reading The Mirror and the Light first! lol. Thanks for sharing, so many good books! 👑📚❤
I like the tapestry metaphor. 👑
Thank you for your wonderful videos. I already followed up on some of your recommendations and I am very pleased with them. If the internet would be full of people like you, the world would be a better place. 🌼
Absolutely in love with your book necklace ❤
Ohmygosh, we literally have the same interests in books. I love have been obsessed with the Tudors for years. I own every nonfiction book that Alison Weir has published and I just purchased Hunting the Falcon a week ago.
I just uploaded my very first Booktube video where I mention my favorite Pride and Prejudice and I will definitely be talking about books on my favorite Queens at some point.
I do own Flora Fraser’s Queen Caroline and highly recommend to grab it if you can. She also wrote a bio about Emma, Lady Hamilton (Lord Nelson’s mistress) that also was good.
Yes! Emma Hamilton is one of my favourite women in history - I'll definitely get hold of a copy of it!
New subscriber from Los Angeles! Found you when I was watching another booktuber and a video of yours on different types of classics books you own popped up in the feed. 😎
I'm new 👑. Been binging your videos for about a week. I can always find content on manga which is a passion of mine, but its rare to find good content on classics and history...my other passion lol. Agatha Christie is AMAZING. Classic horror is my jam. Im also an Austen junkie. This year I'm reading Steinbeck and finally tackling Mansfield Park which, to me, has to be her most difficult book 😵.
Welcome! I’m going to re-read Mansfield Park this year too 📚 Definitely not my personal favourite but great to study
👑C. J. Samson - yes! Jennifer Ehle - yes! I just placed a hold on “Hunting the Falcon” and I suspect that book may be a singular moment in my reading journey this year. (I tend not to plan, just follow my instincts 😊)
Hi Claire, I’m a new subscriber!! I started a booktube channel recently myself. I studied English in college so I used to read mostly classics, both for school and in my free time, but now I’ve been reading more genre fiction. I’d like to get back to reading more classics (I have a ton on my tbr lol) and also the 1995 P&P is definitely superior 💖
Stunning content Claire and truly inspirational. Thank you 🙏
Hello! I’m new to your channel and love your videos. I found you via one of my favourite book tubers, laurenandthebooks!
I studied English Literature and History at Ripon & York St. John in the early 90s. Your York content brings back so many happy memories for me ❤
Yay a fellow YSJ alumni ❤️ Thank you! Lauren is the best
I'm not new, but am newly excited about your channel after watching your Bath vlog. I have a channel too and am looking forward to vlogging Bath, Norwich, and Montenegro this summer along with a backpacking trip to Porcupine Mountains in Michigan :)
I’m actually collecting that same edition of the Marple series. Since it’s a smaller series compared to Poirot, I’m hoping to read it all in 2024 🤞🏻❤️❤️❤️
Also 👑 😁❤️
I've made it a little 'challenge' for myself to listen to all 37 of the Poirot books on Libby. I'm now up to book 5, and will read over the next year or 3. Really enjoying them, especially as narrated by Hugh Fraser and David Suchet (from the tv series ofc! 🙂)
Should also read the Miss Marple books at some point!
@@ladyfox6705 I ♥️ Poirot! He’s the most amazing little detective!!!! I have read his books up until The Three Act Tragedy, I think. I’m collecting his series too 🤓😍
Cheers to the literary odyssey you're embarking upon and may Jane Austen's face shineth upon thee 🥂
Claire, your passion for history and reading is most endearing, I just love letting it inspire me in return!! Last year I did really good at setting TBRs for myself, but it wasn't really working this year, so I've succumbed to full-time mood reading! Have been on a horror fiction rut lately, and become OBSESSED with Shirley Jackson 👑
👑 thanks for sharing this! Added a few to my tbr.
👑 So many good books - I'm taking notes for further readings. Thank you, Claire
Crown, I loved the video. Many inspirations, thank you❤
I always get the best recommendations by you! Love your videos Claire! 👑
I've just bought Wolf hall, Bring up the bodies, and The Mirror and the Light. 🫠
Lovely set of books you got there. Good luck with them. 👑👸🏼📚
Hi Claire! Lovely video💛Definitely adding Blood Fire & Gold as well as Hunting the Falcon to my TBR!👑
Brilliant video, Claire! I always look forward to your recommendations and your TBR…so many to add to my list!!📚❤️👑
👑 great video, i've added so many great books to my TBR. I'm currently reading Wolf Hall so this was good timing 🙂
love the idea of an interconnected reading journey and life tapestry. plus the necklace is too cute! x
p.s. watched sense and sensibility after being inspired by your videos. when i was younger i aspired to the exciting marianne. but now im older i really admire the strong calm steady eleanor with her integrity of character!
p.p.s. my grandad was a history lover and your videos remind me of chats with him ❤
I will add Love and Marriage on my TBR 👑
👑 Fun video!!
Thank you for the inspiration Claire as always! My wish list is now out of control 😂 The First Iron Lady sounds sooo good and I wish we'd been taught about her in school and Frances Burney's Journals and Letters... why have I never seen these before?!? Instant purchase lol
Lovely choices. 👑 My TBR keeps growing which I’m very happy about. Enjoy Agatha, she is a favorite. I might give Wolf Hall ago. I feel it’s one I should read.
Fantastic book choices, Claire. Many on my TBR, but some I didn't know of, and I will be checking out.
I am reading the second Alison Weir book, in the six wives series and will take a break before I read the third. My TBR has now grown ❤😂👑
👑🌈📚 another wonderful video! Thank you! 👑🌈📚

Hi Claire, I’m Celeste. Love these recommendations and added several to my TBR. I did read The Strangest Family and enjoyed it very much! For some point in the future I highly recommend Madame Tussaud by Geri Walton (Pen and Sword books). Oh, she led such a fascinating life!
Hi Claire, I'm Kate and I live in Guiesley, Leeds. I love Jane Austen, The Tudor period, The Brontes and Thomas Hardy. I also love cats, Bettys cafe and tea. I love listening to audiobooks on Audible and I have some of your recommendations on Audible already. I'm going to listen to George III and The first Iron Lady biography. I too am a big fan of the Wolf Hall Trilogy and also need to listen to The Mirror and The Light. Reading and listening to audiobooks distracts me from my physical disability and I love learning about different eras of history. Love your videos. 👑 x
Ooo lots of lovely history book recommendations, and I love the idea of listening to them too. I'm considering buying the audible versions of Agatha Christies' Miss Marple series. She's my favourite heroine as she knits 😂 . Lovely episode 👑
Hello Claire! I'm new to your channel. My name is Aurora, I'm 22 and from Spain (but I was raised in Italy)! My favourite book genre is historical fiction :).
I love your taste and vibe, so I look forward to watch your content from now on❤. Have a great week!
👑 ❤
I love your necklace! I got one from @TattyDevine last year. It says Librarian 😁
👑 The history book you held up about King George lll look like something I might want to read. I’m in American and we get a pretty skewed understanding of George lll since he was the king during the American Revolution. Thanks for all your other recommendations too. Happy reading.😊
A Murder is Announced is my favorite Miss Marple book. Hope you enjoy it.
👑👑👑 I’m also planning to read Hilary Mantel this year! You inspired me to read Wolf Hall in 2023 so I’ve got Bring Up the Bodies ready for this year! I’m also reading The Enchanted April by Elizabeth von Arnim after loving her book Father last year.
Hello! I’m new to your channel. I live in Wisconsin (Midwestern United States). I’m newly retired and am loving all the free time I have to read. I look forward to catching up on all your videos. I found you after finding Miranda’s channel.
I hope you enjoy watching my videos 💓
Many years ago I read a trilogy of Catherine de Medici by Jean Plaidy , the Italian Woman, Queen Jezebel and Madame Serpent. I learnt such a lot about Francis 1 , Mary queen of Scots was at the French court then and of course all the religious /political intrigues. I can really recommend them just having reread them on kindle.
📚 👑 📚
I got that edition of The Complete Novels of Jane Austen too.
If you like reading about the georgians i can really recommend King's Mistress, Queen's Servant by Tracy Borman. It's about Henrietta Howard who was mistress to George II. I bought i when I visited her house Marble Hill last summer. 👑
Hi Claire, I'm an American, and also a history nerd, but I tend to read more broad social history rather than biographies of specific families and figures. That being said, you've made me curious to read even more non-fiction! The First Iron Lady sounded really good to me, but I'm wondering if you'd suggest it for someone with less familiarity with European royal history from that time period. Do you think I could jump right into it, or do you have any suggestions for similar books for newbies?
👑so many good non fiction I love Elizabeth 1 and Mary queen of Scots but would like to read the six queens series .thanks Claire
I've just purchased Alison Weir's Katherine of Aragon.👑
I'm a huge mood reader, too, but I would like to try and read more non-fiction. I'm really interested in Ancient History, the Middle Ages - oh just History in general lol!
Found a couple on Libby to try - The Fabric of Civilization by V. Postrel (about the history of fabric) and The Travel Guide To The Middle Ages by Anthony Bale.

You should start a zettelkasten to get the max out of your historical research. It’s easy and fun.👑

Henry 8th is my favourite king
Interesting! What is it about him as a King? I always think of him being super unpopular 🤣
@@Claire_Fenby I learned about him in school, he was always one of the kings that stuck out for me. He had six wives, he was strong minded and I just found him interesting. I also found out he only ever had 2 baths in his life, 1 when he was born and 1 when he died. Which I thought was a bit grose.
@@rachaelbird9250 Unfortunately the bath one is a myth 🛁 The Tudors (especially royalty) washed regularly

Hi Clare nice to meet you, but would it be ok if you slow down a bit you talk so fast I can’t keep up with you all the time.I don’t mean to be rude,just my earring is not so good. Thank you.
Hi Sandra, have you tried changing the video play back speed to 0.75x? You can slow the video down to help. Google’s closed captions are also really good now but I also edit them to make sure the video is more accessible. I appreciate my style of speaking isn’t for everyone but this is what’s most comfortable for me when filming so I hope the above tips help!
Thank you for your wonderful videos. I already followed up on some of your recommendations and I am very pleased with them. If the internet would be full of people like you, the world would be a better place. 🌼
Thank you so much! That’s really generous of you. I’m really glad you enjoy my videos 🥰
