the backlash against booktok and whether a book "deserves to be viral" has definitely pushed me into a bit of a performative rating mindset so I can feel "intellectual" about the way I rate books, but you're so right. Sometimes a book is 4-5 stars just because I had a fun time and I say so.
Yes, I so feel this!! I read a really great book the other week and on a technical level? It was maybe a 3. But I just really enjoyed how well the other aspects of the book were written and was so immersed and just genuinely really enjoyed myself for what the book was and it being YA. So I gave it 5 stars. It’s a 5 stars simply because I just liked it!
I always rate based on my enjoyment. I don’t care if it’s classical literature by someone who spent 500 days crafting one perfect sentence or if it’s captain underpants. 💫Me had fun so me give 5 star💫
I quit booktube years ago (I was in a reading slump for 4-5 years !! maybe more to be honest, i dont even remember...) But you were my safe place. Now I'm back loving books and reading again more than ever and I'm so so happy to find you here again, not changing much, always posting about books. I'm French and the majority of French booktubers quit (so understandable) but I'm really happy to see you again. I have a lot of videos to catch up ! Bisous
I DNF Crying in H Mart too not bec it wasn't good but it triggered me so much. I was a cancer patient too, (currently in remission) and I had to stop reading it because I can't take it emotionally, all of the memories from surgery, physical therapy and chemo keeps on coming back whenever I read it. But aside from that, I love how she finds comfort in food too, but I had to DNF bec it was so heavy for me.
Katrina’s storyline was so great but I definitely agree that the side plots took away from my enjoyment 😅 great video Jesse! Thank you for including me and saying such kind things
I will forever now differentiate physical reading and audiobook reading as "reading with my eyeballs" and "reading with my ears" 😂 I also need to look up Dreadful immediately because that one sounds right up my alley! Glad you had a wonderful birthday weekend
I agree, it’s ok to like books even if they have problems!! I struggle with that concept so bad. I’ll try too hard to objectively rate books and completely ignore how I personally felt about it. I shouldn’t feel embarrassed for liking a book when everyone else is trashing it. (I mean, unless it actually has problematic aspects that deserve criticism 😅)
Your channel is my happy place. I've enjoyed seeing your videos switch from the contagious excitement kind of vibe to a contagious contentment kind of vibe. It's calming and entertaining!
I recently read dreadful and it is super fun! I have sleeping giants and this is a good reminder that I should read the first book in the series. And also, I loved crying in h mart so much. And I think it did such a good job of exploring grief, cultural identity and the mother / daughter relationship. Five star and one of my favourites of the year as well. I recently removed light from uncommon stars from my tbr wishlist due to reviews :(
I just restarted my Animal Crossing island too, and taking it easy has been sooo soothing! Even if I just play for 20 minutes a day, it's a really nice peaceful meditation-like time for me. I love to put on an audiobook and just hang out on my island! Happy belated birthday Jesse!😊
Not gonna lie I got really excited when Arkansas was mentioned (AR native lol). I feel like all the other booktubers I watch just aren't in the south, so I'm grateful for you! When I'm up in the NWA area again, I'm definitely checking out "Pearl's Books!"
OMG !! I just finish "the whisperwicks " by jordan less and I LOVE IT !! Can wait for you to read it ! I need to see people experience the twists and Turn of the book in the second half of it.
If you need help staying motivated, you should turn around all your unread books on your shelves so there’s a constant visual reminder of what you still have to get to. That helps me :)
I unhauled 6 books over the last month. *Flame in the Mist duology by Renee Ahdieh* Loved this in highschool but upon a reread found I’d completely outgrown it. This one makes me a bit sad because I still love all the ideas in it. I almost wish I could get a carbon copy of this that just gave all those ideas more depth and time. *Whisper duology by Lynette Noni* Loved in highschool. But upon a reread, I hated parts of it, particularly in the second book. *All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven* Again, loved in highschool. But thinking back on it, now I’m not okay with how it handles certain topics nor how it treats the male MC at the end. *Play of Shadows by Sebastien de Castell* My latest read and one I actually enjoyed a LOT without any complaints. But everything I love about it is already done better in another series I love. I’d never reread this because I’d rather just go to said other series.
I absolutely love your videos and your energy in all of them, you seem so genuine and kind and I just love listening to your perspectives on all the books 🥰✨
Jesse, currently I’m reading 📖 Funny Story by Emily Henry and I love it ❤ Also the last book in The Sleeping Giants was a complete miss for me as well I didn’t enjoy it . Also Happy Early Birthday 🥳
I feel like I went into Light from Uncommon Stars with similar expectations as you. I still ended up rating it highly because of all the themes that were covered and the writing style but it was completely different from the expectations I had for it (which might have to do with the blurb in the beginning). Also, I've been trying to check new books on Storygraph because of the rating being at the very top of Goodreads. I want to focus less on the general consensus and what I think will interest me based on a book's description and its aspects. Storygraph's review system also is helping me rate books in a more specific way than 1-5 stars.
I recommend reading a book written in the style of Agatha Christie Murder at Glosford Hall By Charlotte Wells. A little-known author, but the book is written according to all the canons of the golden traditional detective story
Happy belated bday! I read Light From Uncommon Stars about 2 years ago, and had a similar experience. I didn't feel all that connected with any of the characters so I didn't care too much about what happened, but I did want to see Katrina end up okay. At the time, I chalked up the "meh" feeling to reading it at the wrong time -- I was towards the end of my senior year in high school and was making the big life changes decisions -- but after watching this I think it just really wasn't strong enough for me to be that invested.
I don’t know if you’ve read them as they were not included with the paper backs but there are extra “files” that you can read in between the Themis files books and there’s also an extra file that comes after the third book… I was not happy with how only human finished but that last file reconciled me with the end! Theyre avalable for free on Sylvain neuvel’s website ☺️
I'm so glad you liked Crying in H Mart- it's one that really moved me too! I've had Sleeping Giants and Light From Uncommon Stars on my TBR for a while, I'll read them both but maybe slightly more excited for Sleeping Giants. Congratulations on giving it your all at the gym/pool- I just restarted the gym journey and it's hard but so rewarding! Love all your videos and this one was so much fun!
Jesse this is like super random but I recently read this middle grade book and I feel like you‘d love it! It‘s called Circus Mirandus by Cassie Beasley and it deals with grief and childlike wonder and magic and a circus! Just wanted to recommend ✨
I’m glad you chose Light from Uncommon Stars, as it’s on my must-read list for this year. But now I’m wondering how it will hit for me. Hmmmm. 🤔 Fun concept for a video!
Had to comment 5 minutes in, I am LOVING the montage for book 1 and the happy music you added. I just adore your style of videos. Also, such a shame you didn't pick Raybearer, its one of my favorates 🥰
I just read Garlic & The Vampire and its sequel and it was a cute graphic novel duology! They were both just short and sweet little adventures. I think you might like them! I also dnfed & unhauled Light From Uncommon Stars 😬
what a fun video idea! I recently unhauled a lot of things. all my celeste ng books, all my olivie Blake books except the atlas six, a lot of my ya fantasy including all ve Schwab except Addie larue. all the lunar chronicles, the illustrated harry potters (THOSE ARE HEAVY) and cursed child. all celeb memoirs except for I'm glad my mom is dead. (Prince harry, Paris Hilton, Michelle Obama, etc...) a bunch of romance (after, 50 shades, funny you should ask, all Ali Hazelwood except for Bride, etc...) the list goes on.
You went to Eureka Springs and didn’t head over to Fayetteville to go to the Dickson Street Bookshop?!?!? You were so close! I promise it’s the best book shop you will ever visit and will make your heart soar. I live in NWA and I’m kicking myself for not running into you in Eureka Springs. That would’ve been a hoot. I hope you had a blast!
@@jessethereaderOMG! If I were walking through there and heard your voice, I think I’d think I’d entered another dimension or something. I’m so glad you’ve visited it. I’ve seen it on lists of the Top 10 Best Book Shops in the world.
I stopped reading books after 2022 and just started re-reading one of my fav book out of nowhere and now RUclips is like "oh you are back into books? Here's your fav booktuber and his videos enjoy" and now I'm watching you instead of actually reading lol
I just finished whisperwicks and it was good and wholesome but SO MUCH was going on so I constantly got confused. I wish it had been a series instead of one book.
the being overly critical with ratings omg!! so i read a little life back in march of last year and while i did have a great time reading it, it was so HEAVY and i wanted/needed something that was just *unhinged*. i decided on barbarian alien by ruby dixon which essentially is just alien smut. the story wasn’t all that great, but did i get what i wanted out of it? absolutely! i didn’t know how to rate it bc i thoroughly enjoyed it but the story was lacking and i bounced back between 2 and 5 stars. at the end of the day, it’s really not that deep. it’s YOUR rating and it doesn’t have to be explained to anyone
I read Light From Uncommon Stars in early 2022 and I still think about it. Not because I enjoyed it but because I hated it so, so much. It's the first thing that comes to mind when someone asks me what the worst book I've ever read is :x (don't get me wrong there are absolutely worse books out there, but I DNF those. this one I stuck with out of stubbornness...) I had all the same problems you had with it, there was too much going on at all times and I didn't feel connected to any of it because I found the pacing to be haphazard at best. In addition I also hated the writing style, the formatting, and every stylistic choice made in the text. It also just throws a lot of really heavy shit at the reader, especially in relation to Katrina, and most of the time it happens out of the blue and goes nowhere. It's just a conga line of trauma that eventually goes off the edge of a cliff, the characters and the reader are given no time or opportunity to process any of it. This wouldn't be that much of an issue for me if the marketing and the way people recommend it didn't lean so heavily into the "cosy" stuff. Every time I see someone recommend this as a cute, warm hug, found family cosy queer adventure I want to scream. Anyway....... Sleeping Giants has been hanging out on my TBR for years now and just narrowly avoided getting purged multiple times, so maybe I should pick it up and read it at last! 👀 You've inspired me!
Have you read the strange case of dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde I just reread it in audio version. Not the original text I just found out but the one where it’s mainly the lawyers p.o.v
Sleeping Giants sounds pretty interesting and I just gave away my copy of five nights at Freddy's the silver eyes to my sister she likes five nights at Freddy's more than I do I guess
If I really like something and I watch reviews on it and they don't like it as much and are looking at it from a critical standpoint I feel like I'd have to rate it more critically too its annoying
I also did not like A Light from Uncommon Stars and I agree that I'd've liked it better if it only followed Katrina but that was because I hated how the book wanted the evil character to get a happy ending.
Sleeping giants is one of those series I'll probably never finish. I LOVED the first 2 but my god the 3rd one is such utter bullshit compared to the first two i gave it so many chances and every time i just couldn't continue it's so bad. I made ir about a third into the last one and i regret ever starting it. I would have loved the series si much more if the 3rd ine didn't exist.
To decrease your fizical TBR you could start reading your books on your shelves one by one and make small, like mini videos about them, maybe on insta🤔, and by doing that you could decide what can stay and what has to go. 😂 idk I thought maybe that could be a good idea...but then again you are a mood reader so it might not work for you😅
I did a book unhaul in April, and donated them to my local High School library. A Little Spring Cleaning // First Book Unhaul of 2024 EN🇬🇧 ruclips.net/video/ac26fKoduQA/видео.html
I finished light from uncommon stars a couple days ago and well it was so underwhelming lmao I was so disappointed. I absolutely liked the found family trope and the queer representation but in general I predicted the whole plot so it was a no for me 🥲
Book math: when you don’t really want to read 1 book so you read 3 instead 😂
the backlash against booktok and whether a book "deserves to be viral" has definitely pushed me into a bit of a performative rating mindset so I can feel "intellectual" about the way I rate books, but you're so right. Sometimes a book is 4-5 stars just because I had a fun time and I say so.

Jessie: i wanna reduce my physical tbr
Also jessie: *rereads an old series and buys 2 new books while doing so*
I DNF Crying in H Mart too not bec it wasn't good but it triggered me so much.

Jesse UR the coziest booktube channel out there, your channel is so funny and comforting
ahh thanks so much gaby!
I’m glad in a roundabout way I was able to help you get into romance books!!!
Katrina’s storyline was so great but I definitely agree that the side plots took away from my enjoyment 😅 great video Jesse! Thank you for including me and saying such kind things

Also light from uncommon stars has a 4 average??? How… much too chaotic of a hodge podge for me.
Very cool idea for a video, Jesse.

You should have pulled music since you were there for lessons. That hotel looked awesome please share
Oh how fun! I like this game!
I actually really like this idea :)
This sounds like an interesting concept to do.
It was fun! :D
I just finished whisperwicks and it was good and wholesome but SO MUCH was going on so I constantly got confused. I wish it had been a series instead of one book.

What do you mean, what am I doing here??? I'm watching a video about books. 😂 I always jump when people say my name in videos.
LOL
oh but which survivor season are you watching??
Yesss survivor era!

You should write books.
To decrease your fizical TBR you could start reading your books on your shelves one by one and make small, like mini videos about them, maybe on insta🤔, and by doing that you could decide what can stay and what has to go.
😂 idk I thought maybe that could be a good idea...but then again you are a mood reader so it might not work for you😅
