 Zachary is saying get that phiric signal. I'm off off to the start of the scene. That's not a stretch That's just genius in action. Hi friends. I hope you're well. Welcome back to another video now If you are a regular here, you may know that I I like to use a memes It's such a like a gross word, but like I like to use some memes in my videos You know, I like to edit in a bit of Gemma Collins A bit of Nicky from Big Brother I just feel like a cooped up chicken A bit of charity shop scene Can you count me in? 3, 2, 1 Are you a chasers? How are ya? It's just the start editing I like. I like making fun of myself And I feel like they're a cool way to do that However, I did get a comment on a video last week telling me to stop using them Plus, it was a fairly respectful comment. You know, I wouldn't call it a hate comment They were respectful in their opinion, but I think they're wrong And so I decided to just double down on that and make a video entirely about memes So what we're doing today is I got you guys to send in your favourite memes or funny videos or whatever Pictures and I'm going to be trying to match them to books Match the energy of that meme to a book that I've read I'm not calling this book recommendations Because I think that would be too hard to solely pick on books that I've given 4 or 5 stars If a book I've given 1 star matches the energy, we're going to talk about it And we're going to talk about why I didn't like it But before we get into the video, make sure you subscribe if you haven't already And hit the bell notification to be notified of whatever I post Because in the words of Luke from Hot The Mode What do you have to lose? You're already here Okay, so the first one is Y'all not gonna sleep cause of me Okay, right Let's have a think That's a strong, that's a classic Like that is etched in history I've got my Goodreads open up in front of me So for this I tried to think of a book that I didn't get much sleep while reading I thought that was the most appropriate thing to go with And I have chosen The Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware So this is actually the first book I did a reading blog for My channel And I just remember wanting to just stay up and read this book It's also a bit spooky So I feel like it fits maybe like you're scared So you can't sleep, although it's not that scary It's not horror We have a woman who has gone to this smart home To be a nanny there, a living nanny And things quickly start going wrong It's told through a series of letters Because she is writing to the man she wants to help her Because she has been accused of murder of one of the children And she's saying, you know, I didn't kill that kid And it's basically the story of what happened So I loved this book, I gave it five stars I think it's the only thriller I've ever given five stars And it was the first thriller I read as well This is just the kind of book that you just want to fly through And it's very quick to read as well So I feel like it's the kind of book that you could very easily find yourself not sleeping And just reading this instead Okay, we've got our first GC Oh, I don't want to play any more games I'm fucking gang day out I've had enough of playing games Have I got any books that could be seen as games? Have I read anything about games? Okay, hang on This is going to take me a moment This was a hard one I haven't read anything really That has games in it Like has a big plot point So I'm going to say Bunny by Mona Awad Now, the vlog where I read this Is coming out at the weekend on Sunday So I don't want to spoil the vlog So I'm not going to tell you what I thought about this I mean, other than, you know But essentially in this, one of the plot points is that There are these bunnies There are these girls who I don't want to spoil anything They kind of end up being a cult And they have certain They do a certain activity Which I think they see as a game When they talk about it Or when they're doing the activity I don't want to spoil anything But it involves animals exploding They see that as a game They kind of see it as something Outside of the realms of reality And when you read it, you're like It almost doesn't feel real It feels like a game So that's why I've said Bunny I am breaking down Please be quiet What show is that from? I feel like I should know Okay So a book that made me cry I mean, that's not that hard For this, I want to recommend something I haven't spoken about in a long time But I've been thinking about it And I do actually want to speak about this book And that is Love Aubrey I believe it's by Suzanne Lafleur I read this in a Reading My Childhood Favourites books video Which was kind of like a big video for me Now it's not like one of the most Feed videos on my channel But I think in terms of like Me figuring out what kind of content I wanted to make It was a big video for me I cried a lot in that video I mean Books made me cry quite easily But this one, I feel like Was one I was the biggest mess for The reason I haven't spoken about it Is because it is kind of old middle grade And so I just think people I always assume people won't be interested in it But I feel like I've seen A big resurgence in people Reading middle grade recently I feel like if I loved that book I gave it five stars Like I want to speak about it So it's about a girl named Aubrey Her father and sister have passed away And we find out on the early pages That her mother has abandoned her And so at the beginning She is living in her own In her house on her own Going through the shopping on her own And not telling anyone About her mum abandoning her But eventually her grandma comes And collects her and she goes And moves in with her grandma And it's just a story of like A child learning to deal with grief And understanding really adult concepts Of how maybe her mum may be feeling In that moment maybe why her mum Did what she did And becoming understanding of that And this book wrecked me Like I was a mess I was a mess I think this is a great middle grade book And it definitely holds a really Special place in my heart I think it's just beautifully written And Aubrey is a wonderful character If you can get your hands on it I would really recommend reading this book So that's my answer for that Okay we've got this one of... Of Raven Like the way she's laughing Is when something's happened That you can't believe That you just have to laugh That laugh isn't a funny laugh That's a I'm shocked I can't believe what's happened So I'm just gonna laugh So for that I'm gonna go with Gemina by J. Christoph And Amy Kofman Now these books are funny The characters in them are very funny Very quick wit But the reason I think Gemina Which is the second in the series in particular Is because I remember The ending to this book I've never really heard anyone speak about it And I'm not gonna spoil anything But essentially with the ending You're thrown a few curveballs And in a very short space of time You think that a lot of different things Are gonna be happening And you kinda don't know what's... And I remember after I finished it I'd like cried I'd been shocked I just sat there And I just started laughing to myself Like that Well you're just... You've been through the emotions You've been through them all And so you're just sitting there And laughing to yourself I have to laugh I'm sorry this is so f***ing ridiculous I love the Illumina series by Amy Kofman And J. Christoph I've spoken about it like a hundred thousand times Again all five stars It's definitely a new favourite series of mine In this series we follow kinda different characters In each series But in the first one It is about a couple who have just broken up And on the day they've broken up Their planet is invaded And they have to evacuate their planet On separate ships And it is essentially the story Of this space war And them trying to survive Them trying to keep their families And loved ones alive And them trying to bring justice On the baddies I think German is my favourite in the series The second one And the ending The ending just Hand me on such an emotional rope Do any of you know what I mean When you've cried You've... And that's been turned around in another curve But when you just sit there And you go Okay Men Ominous music For some reason My first thought was vicious By V.E. Schwab For that I loved vicious By V.E. Schwab And then I read Vengeful Which is the second one And I gave it two stars Vicious was on the way To be one of my favourite books of all time But I feel like Vengeful kind of tainted it Which obviously it shouldn't They're separate books But I feel like I need to reread vicious On its own And just ignore Vengeful So I can think about it more clearly But in Vicious We follow Eli and Victor As they kind of start their quest To become superheroes They believe in kind of like Near-death experiences Giving you strange abilities And they test that And they're successful And it's kind of the story Of their friendship to enemies I just think this is an example Of Although there is women in this book They're definitely side characters And so this is the book That first came to mind Of just men like Fucking shit up But Just their own meaningless rivalries Do you know what I mean? Like you're not caring About the rest of the world Just being so consumed By this rivalry That you do all this crazy stuff To try and get back at them I loved Vicious And I would recommend reading it But maybe treat it as a standalone And I've heard of quite a few other people say that It's not just me Vengeful ain't it Vengeful really ain't it And it's put me off of reading More of these shrub stuff In the future Although I still want to I really like this one From What's his name When is it Bill? Oh yeah, Billy Billy Yeah, Billy on the street I do have brain cells It's Go Clowns Let's go Here we go Okay This kind of makes me think Of Renegades By Marissa Mayer Maya Mayer Who knows? Honestly, who knows? And who cares? Listen, they ain't full clowns But these are just kids Renegades is about A girl named Nova Who has been brought up Living with the anarchists Her uncle was the head anarchist And he died In the big war Between the Renegades With the good guys And the anarchists With the bad guys To infiltrate the Renegades And apply to be a Renegade And so to learn more And to feed that back To her people But of course She develops friendships Feelings And it's kind of like that Tug between Trying to figure out What to do and what's right And I feel like The group of young Renegades That Nova's in Kind of have a bit Of clown energy to them Like they're kind of Just running down the street And they don't really Know what they're doing Do you know what I mean? They're making it up As they go along We have, ladies A fucking clown We are a stupid bitch We are a fucking clown I feel like you could put them In that picture And it would work So, yeah I think I gave Renegades Three stars And I gave Arch enemies Which is the second one Four stars I haven't read Supernova Yet Because I want the American Cover Because I have the American Cover of Arch enemies But I'm so sad But yeah I got Arch enemies When I was in America And I want the Supernova American one I don't know How I'm ever gonna get that So I should just give up on that And get Supernova Classic GC This is very expensive It is fucking frezzled Because you've only got Straightness in here You haven't got heated rollers So you better pay You can pay for me To have a new set of extensions The fucking hair is frezzled It's a fucking piss take You're all taking the piss out of me Why don't you think Of putting heated rollers in here Straightness Fucking weirdos use on there air That's what you think Who's like Juicy energy enough To be like Straightness or what Fucking weirdos use on there air Okay Okay You're about to hate me You're about to hate me You're about to hate me There's only one book That fits this energy Of rich white people Holding their lives To a certain standard Which is frankly ridiculous And that is the guest list By Lucy Foley Don't hate me I know I speak about it Every video But do I care Every day Every day more and more people Tell me they're gonna read it I don't think I'm so happy So This is a murder mystery Very Agatha Christie style It's a bit campy Like it's just a bit of fun It doesn't take itself too seriously But we find out on the first page That a body has been found at the wedding And this is all very rich people This is people from private schools This is the elite The elite Who know they're the elite And have a certain standard Maybe even the bride Jules would be like Straighteners of what fucking weirdos Use on their hair But not like that She wouldn't talk like that Straighteners of what fucking weirdos Use on their hair I love the reveals in this Every time you think You know what's gonna happen You don't I did not predict Who died Who was the killer I remember There's like a quote in it Where the author said She overheard someone say At like a posh coffee shop Because she often goes on Writers and coffee shops And she used it in the book And it's like this These women talking One of them goes I just don't know why anyone Would ever fly with a child An economy So that's the kind of energy We're thinking We're thinking delusional Rich person Who only uses heated rollers Gemma thinks She has seen a ghost She just seems like Really fucking scary In the mirror Where? Oh my god Open that fucking door now Now fuck this I'm out of here Get that fire extinguisher door Get that fire extinguisher door In terms of reading Stuff with a ghost In it I read tunnel Is it tunnel of bones? Oh No tunnel of bones is the second one Isn't it? I read city of ghosts By the Schwab Or Victoria Schwab In this case And I gave it three stars Didn't really like it But if you're looking For some ghosty toast You're looking for If you're looking for A book about ghosts Then that whole book Is literally about ghost hunters And a girl who can see ghosts In terms of Get that fire extinguisher door I'm off Let's think about that Shall we? Oh if we're talking about doors Ah I'm a genius I'm a genius As many of you know Almost my favourite book Last year It's my second favourite book Of last year It was The Starless Sea By Erin Morgenstern So this is Often touted Like often described as a book With underground libraries And a starless sea And a pirate And it's about Zachary Who finds himself in a book But often isn't mentioned Is there a big role At doors playing this So he has to kind of Go through a certain door In order to get to the Starless Sea And then Doors have a certain medical Ability in this I don't want to spoil anything But You can enter the same room Through different doors And come from different time periods Come from different years Certain doors can take you To one place one time Into another place another time And so Zachary is saying Get that fire extinguisher door I'm off Off to the starless sea That's not a stretch That's just Genius in action I think it's such a beautiful book I think it is magical I haven't felt like that With a book for a long time Where the writing just kind of Hits you Do you know what I mean? Not necessarily the plot Although the plot was great But just the way that it's written Feels so magical And so different Anything you've ever read before I love books That try to do something That I've never seen before And never read before And this definitely was that I fell in love with it I want to do a reread I always say that with so many books Like I want to reread it It's never going to happen Because I've got a million other books to read But The starless sea Incredible Incredible We're going to end with this one Which is the duck laying With the pink knife And this is another thing I'm speaking about in every video But that is me reading Heartstopper And if any of you are going to hurt Nick and Charlie That's what you fucking get It's me As that duck With that knife Going You know Jab jab They are just the purest couple To ever live To ever live Heartstopper is a graphic novel series by Alice Oseman And we follow It's basically boy meets boy And boy and boyfriend in love And it's so magical One day Maybe in a couple months I don't know A couple weeks A couple days Who knows How long I can wait Just sit down for the day And let myself reread the three of them Even though I only read The other volume three A couple weeks ago Like I already feel that need And because they're graphic novels Like it's only going to take you an hour To read each Like it's so fast I love these They hold such a Like a special place in my heart The first graphic novel I ever read And I don't know if a graphic novel Is ever going to top these They're just something about The facial expressions in these And softness And the hope of their relationships A very joyful, hopeful story Even though it's starting to tackle Really important issues I love it So if you haven't checked out Heartstopper yet Definitely do Because if you like that picture That duck If you like that energy That's how you're going to be you You pick up Heartstopper That is automatically you Anyone who has read Heartstopper Can attest That is you Anyway, I hope you liked this video Let me know if you would like Me to do it again I would love to match up More memes Two books My two favourite loves Together in one place And I will see you very, very soon In another one Bye
