    Studio Ghibli-esq Books?

    i was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for books they feel like would be similar to the movies produced by studio ghibli?

    i don't read a lot of traditional fantasy, but ponyo and spirited away are two of my favorite & most memorable movies from my childhood— i would absolutely love to read pieces with the same "vibe".

  • Who is your favorite Booktuber and why is it Jordaline Reads?

    No seriously, she’s a nut. I’m currently watching her favorite horror reads and when I tell you I am having a TIME šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚. She’s hilarious and I’ve read a few of her recs and she’s on to something.

    How about y’all? Any faves you want to shout out or recommend?

    Idk I’m too stupid for this. Had some good lines that made you Think but also had some sections that were just throwing lots of words around

    It’s feels a bit like the author had a collection of really cool lines she wanted to use and then wrote some vague plot around them? Like girl just write a poem

    This is one of those books where if I was Smart i would probably be finding a ton of symbolism and deeper meaning and whatever but instead I’m kinda just letting it wash over me and absorbing vibes..

    His name is Josh TANNENBAUM???? Like CHRISTMAS TREE??? Too on the nose

    Side note I can’t tell if I’m hating all these details because I find the characters so annoying and just have low expectations overall… I bet if I was enjoying the book I’d think this was a fun detail. Oh well

    soo i only read this mainly because im doing 75 hard and ive heard a lot of people talk about this book. i stopped reading it last year when i finished the challenge and had no desire to continue but started again this year.

    i think it has valuable insights that are small and simple so they can be approachable to the reader, however, the book got really repetitive at some point
