1
So I heard you want to bring a little bit more whimsy into your life.
2
Well, a little fairy told me about all the best books that will bring you to a whimsical place.
3
We'll go down a rabbit hole all the way to all the strange and bizarre books that will satisfy your weirdest sight.
4
Let's enter the forest.
5
Let's start with the books that are whimsical and vibey.
6
They're a little silly.
7
They're a little magical, a little fairy tale-esque.
8
I would say that the ultimate whimsical girl is Alice from Alice in Wonderland.
9
And that is why I highly recommend reading Alice in Wonderland and also Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll.
10
If you've seen the Disney adaptation or the Tim Burton adaptation, the book adds something that the movies don't have and that is, well, written language.
11
This book is full of language jokes, puns.
12
Lewis Carroll loves to play around with the English language and that is what made this book so much fun to me.
13
Of course we have Alice who is a bit of a rebellious girl.
14
She's very used to every morning looking at things that are getting curiouser and curiouser.
15
All the little quests she goes on
16
and the quirky character she needs to me is peak whimsicality
17
and if you're afraid it's not going to give you
18
that super whimsical vibe because you already know the characters I specifically recommend Through the Looking Glass
19
because Through the Looking Glass has a lot of characters
20
that you may not be familiar with yet because you're so used to Alice in Wonderland.
21
I could spend hours just listening to the sounds of the forest.
22
I love this.
23
I would say that the most whimsical of whimsical fairy fantasy forest books out there are of course the Emily Wilde trilogy.
24
It's not only whimsical because it is about fae
25
and about a researcher that researches fae and throughout the series goes on multiple trips to fairy forests to
26
Iceland's fairy kingdoms to research this fae.
27
It's also whimsical because the characters are just It's so quirky and a little strange.
28
We have, you know, your typical awkward researcher and then her rival researcher, who is often described as pretty similar to Howl from Howl's Moving Castle.
29
Just a very dramatic funny man.
30
I love a dramatic funny man.
31
What I love about this trilogy is that it shows elves and fae in the classic folklore way,
32
not in the now very common sexy elf fae kind of way.
33
Here we have brownies, we have pixies, we have kelpies.
34
The fae are actually scary and mean, but somehow Heather Fawcett writes it in such a way that it never is scary,
35
but it always feels cozy and just a little strange.
36
Now of course I cannot talk about Howl from Howl's Moving Castle without recommending Howl's Moving Castle.
37
The book, completely different from the Ghibli movie, you have to be aware of that but it has
38
that same whimsical feel our main character sophie gets cursed to become an old lady
39
and as an old lady she starts to work for this wizard howl who lives in a castle that moves
40
and walks around this book has all the makings of a classic whimsical fairy tale there is a witch
41
that needs to be beaten there are spells again dramatic wizard man stars that need to be caught, wishes that need to be made.
42
It's one of those cozy fantasies that feels like a warm hug without ever becoming boring, because a lot is happening in this book.
43
And especially if you love the movie, it's really fun to read this and see where it goes completely different.
44
Look, I won't lie, I am a sweaty girl.
45
No matter how women's cool you are, you're going to sweat.
46
And I've been looking for a little sustainable swap for my deodorant.
47
So I tried out Wild deodorant after they reached out to me and I've never looked back basically.
48
I've been using Wild as my staple deodorant for over a year now.
49
So I'm so happy to be partnered with Wild for this video.
50
They are reusable, they smell so nice and they are 24-hour odor protection.
51
Wild has a reusable aluminum deodorant applicator so you can refill your cases again
52
and again reducing 30 grams of plastic waste per refill.
53
This is their limited edition ladybug case designed with Emma Bridgewater
54
and they have many other gorgeous designs to choose from as well.
55
You only need one and you can keep refilling it.
56
I have gifted so many wild cases to my friends so they all now also have cute reusable deodorants.
57
My favorite thing about Wild is their scents.
58
Their plastic-free refills come in a variety of scents and they all smell beautiful.
59
It's like I'm putting on perfume.
60
They're Leaping Buddy certified and vegan.
61
There are no harsh chemicals, no parabens.
62
I would highly recommend them.
63
And I have a link and a discount code for you all, but it's only valid for a short period of time
64
so click the link in the description
65
and use my code the booklio20 for 20 off your first wild product
66
or you can just scan the qr code on the screen welcome in our little vibey atmospheric den
67
if you like your whimsical books to be
68
very atmospheric fantasies i highly recommend the starless sea you may of course know her most well known novel
69
which is the night circus i think the starless sea has
70
just slightly more whimsical qualities to it in a sense
71
that the entire book feels like a little puzzle
72
or even a scavenger hunt like the author takes you along
73
flying keys hidden doors hidden chambers it's a story within a
74
story within a story this is basically a 500 page love letter to stories the times calls it mind-boggling
75
and I think mind-boggling is like the superlative of whimsical.
76
This book will take you from secret clubs to the underside of like a pirate ship
77
and it's whimsical in the sense that it feels like one big labyrinth of a story.
78
You know what's the most whimsical thing to do when you're in a forest?
79
Hunt for mushrooms and that's why I would actually really recommend this non-fiction book called The Little Book of Mushrooms.
80
It is a beautiful little non-fiction book about all the most common
81
or the most well-known mushrooms with a little bit of information on where they grow, what they are known for, and beautiful illustrations.
82
The way that this book has been designed is just beautiful.
83
I wouldn't say that it functions as a field guide, especially because the illustrations are very artistically beautiful,
84
but not necessarily like biologically accurate or like easy to find it in the wild.
85
And a lot of the mushrooms in here are very very cool, but they're also quite rare.
86
But I do think this book is a wonderful addition to a field guide.
87
And a really wonderful way to see all the possibilities and the beauty of this organism kingdom.
88
And if this book can convince you to get into mushroom hunting and look for mushrooms in the forest, then my duty is done.
89
I'm noticing that a lot of the books that I want to recommend here are just kind of weird fairy tales.
90
And I couldn't be recommending weird fairy tales without recommending a book by T.
91
Kingfisher.
92
And I think the best one for this recommendation video is Thornhedge.
93
This is a retelling of Sleeping Beauty.
94
But it's not about Sleeping Beauty.
95
Sleeping Beauty is just up in a tower somewhere.
96
We follow Toadling, who is a girl that can turn into a toad.
97
Yes, our main character is a girl that can turn into a toad.
98
And it is her task to kind of guard
99
and watch Sleeping Beauty as she is sleeping in the tower
100
she strikes up a friendship with the most wholesome knight you will ever meet.
101
Like this is a knight who feels really bad about the fact
102
that he has to kill people and he's not really a violent man.
103
He doesn't really want to do it but he's a knight so he has to.
104
Again you will get fairies and folklore in the traditional sense.
105
The ones that strike bargains, the ones that are not to be trusted.
106
This book is thorny with some dark sides, but ultimately will always be heartwarming.
107
I am always just amazed with T.
108
Kingfisher's imagination.
109
Every time I read one of her books, I'm reading things I've never read anywhere else before.
110
In our next steps a bit deeper into the forest we are slowly starting to lose touch with reality.
111
The whimsical is starting to get a little weird.
112
I personally think that whimsicality is not just a quirky style.
113
It's a little bit outside of what is normal.
114
A little bit outside of what is expected and therefore I love the overlap between the whimsical and the weird.
115
I made myself a London fog.
116
I love a London fog.
117
I consider putting sprinkles on it, which is, you know, the little whimsical trend that is going on right now.
118
But I'm here to de-influence you about sprinkles on your foam milk
119
because they get like weird and soggy and sag to the bottom of your drink, giving a really weird texture to your drink.
120
I'm loving this current trend of like whimsicality and becoming whimsical.
121
I think I've been making like
122
whimsical content for years now so I love seeing
123
that it is kind of gaining traction now
124
that it's gaining popularity I just hope it doesn't devolve too
125
much into just a trend with like a set list of things
126
that you need to try like I said being whimsical is a little bit about being weird
127
and being a little strange and just by default
128
that doesn't really go together with just following a set of trends in order to become whimsical.
129
Like I said, the whimsical sprinkles on your milk foam, they look really cute, but in practice they're actually not that great.
130
That's good.
131
Now a book
132
that I think perfectly exemplifies this feeling of slowly losing touch with reality is The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman.
133
This is about a woman who is feeling what we would nowadays call depressed
134
and she is given a cure
135
that they gave people back in the day called the rescuer
136
which basically means she has to sit in a room by
137
herself she is not allowed to do anything she's not allowed to read she's not allowed to think
138
because you know as a woman
139
if you're thinking too much that's gonna make you sick
140
but we see her as she is struggling with dealing with
141
this rescuer being alone in this room for such a long time
142
and just having her thoughts take over to the point
143
that she starts seeing things move in the yellow wallpaper on the walls of this room
144
and she's slowly starting to lose touch with her own sanity.
145
In only 50 pages this book is just a perfect account of what happens
146
when as a woman you are not allowed access to your own intelligence.
147
You're not allowed access to being a part of the world.
148
It technically counts as horror, but it is horror in the way that people in the 19th century thought things were horror.
149
So that's why I'm not putting it super low on the list yet.
150
Because although it gets a little creepy, a little eerie, I wouldn't say it's super scary.
151
The next book is just beautifully quirkily written and also full of existential dread.
152
I'm talking about the opposite of a person.
153
This is a Dutch novel, but there is an English translation available.
154
The first sentence of this book is, when I was a child, I enjoyed fantasizing about being a cucumber.
155
If you hear that, you probably didn't expect
156
that this book is written by a philosopher and also the national poet of the Netherlands.
157
And she blends poetry with prose and story with actual philosophical ideas about love,
158
about entanglement, but also about the impending doom of climate change it's technically a novel
159
but it feels more like a little mosaic of little vignettes
160
and poems and it's all written in a very frank manner
161
that shows a lot of clarity of thought i know this all sounds really heavy
162
but just the way it is written remains very playful
163
and that's why i think it still belongs in the whimsical
164
section my next recommendation is the i think the only one in this video
165
that isn't like fantasy or genre adjacent
166
but i would recommend it to the girls who are looking for a bit of mischief you know
167
that type of whimsicality that is discontent by beatrice serrano this is originally a spanish novel
168
but there is an english translation
169
and it is about a woman who is i guess you
170
could say like the archetype of a girl boss on the outside you know she wears high heels, she has her own big office, she has a cushy job at a marketing firm,
171
but she totally sees through all the bullshit.
172
Like she's basically not doing anything, she's perfect at convincing the people around her that she's working.
173
While she's very aware of the fact that even if she is working, she's not really contributing anything to society and it is this disconnect
174
that she feels with the world that is beautifully satirized in this book, which is also very funny.
175
It's a very funny take on the absurdity of corporate culture, but also how we use the internet,
176
internet trends, beauty trends, capitalism, just anything that would make a modern corporate woman discontent.
177
It's a very absurd novel and therefore I do feel like it fits into that whimsical category.
178
If you wish that you could just scream and just like,
179
if you ever feel that urge to just like clatter everything off the table and break everything and scream, I think he would relate to this main character.
180
I think the next book is about like the ultimate experience of strangeness.
181
Do you ever just sit in a park
182
or just see like a fly somewhere or like a duck or a blade of grass?
183
You're suddenly struck with the awareness of just being a random little person in a tiny world.
184
If you are someone who is interested in existentialist philosophy, you're interested in the question of basically what to do with my life,
185
you are really going to enjoy this French novel, Nausea, by Jean Balsart.
186
I read the English translation.
187
Jean Balsart, you may know as the existentialist philosopher.
188
He's known for his philosophy about how we have a kind of a radical freedom.
189
So much freedom that we don't really know what to do with it.
190
And this is the fictionalized version of that philosophy.
191
We follow a man who realizes that he is radically free, but the world has absolutely no meaning,
192
and it is completely up to him to choose what he wants to do with his life.
193
There is no one that can tell him what to do.
194
There is no god that can tell him what to do and so he's kind of overwhelmed with this feeling of, oh god, what do I do now?
195
I have to find my own purpose.
196
Oh my gosh.
197
It's just one of those feelings that I think is relevant and relatable at any age and at any time.
198
A book that is incredibly foresty, makes you feel like you are bathing in nature,
199
but also at the same time makes you feel very uncomfortable and unsure what the hell's going on is Bear.
200
This is a contemporary fiction novel about two sisters that live in this very small town on a small island,
201
kind of trapped there, kind of trapped in their lives.
202
And one day their lives get shaken up because a bear enters their facility.
203
It walks by their house.
204
And our main character is, of course, incredibly scared, tries to take this seriously, tries to tell people,
205
my god there's a bear here she tries to warn people about it tries to get people to help her
206
but no one is taking her seriously classic
207
but her sister she's kind of taking a fascination with this
208
bear she always feels like she could somehow form a friendship with it
209
and it's just these two different girls having this completely opposite approach to this bear on their land
210
if i'm describing it right now this sounds like a really
211
weird book this book's not really about a bear i I know it's called bear, but it's not really about a bear.
212
This is a book about obsession, about sister relationships.
213
I think that's one of those books that everyone interprets differently.
214
I interpreted it as a book about like male violence, but maybe that's a far stretch.
215
It's one of those books where you are constantly thinking, what is going to happen next and where is this book going to take me?
216
One of those books where the author does the fantastic job
217
of making it tense the whole way through even though not much is happening.
218
Those are my favorite type of contemporary books.
219
And of course the best way to read any of these books is just putting your jacket down in a forest, on a forest floor, on the grass,
220
and reading it in the sun while the birds are tweeting around you.
221
The next book is for people who are not afraid of being a little bit confused at the beginning of the story.
222
Actually, that goes for a lot of the books that I'm about to recommend in this video.
223
But oh my gosh, you just have to try.
224
This is how you lose the time war.
225
This is a beautiful love story, but I'm calling it whimsical
226
because it plays with the concept of time travel in a way
227
that doesn't feel like you're watching a Christopher Nolan movie that you don't really understand, but in a way that it feels almost poetic.
228
A feeling that is made even stronger by the beautiful lyrical, to some maybe a little bit over the top writing style.
229
This story will take you through the braid of time from
230
way back into the past to far off into the future there are these two agents of two warring countries
231
that are both time travelers and are hunting each other through time,
232
writing each other letters through time and slowly falling in love in that way.
233
It.. wow.
234
It's reading the love letters between two star-crossed lovers with a healthy dose of sci-fi used to bend reality,
235
to bend your perception.
236
If you ever feel this need to just escape time as a whole.
237
You're gonna love this novel.
238
It is a little hard to get into at the beginning.
239
A lot of people put this book down at the beginning because
240
they are intimidated by just how confusing it is at the beginning with all the time travel, but please push through it and also understand
241
that you don't have to understand everything and it's actually okay to feel a little bit lost.
242
I think that is actually the purpose of this novel.
243
Now we've reached the darkest parts of the forest where we will find the weird, the bizarre books.
244
The books that I still deem whimsical because they're for the odd girls.
245
The people that like their books a little strange.
246
Because you yourself maybe are also a little strange.
247
Complimentary.
248
Complimentary.
249
First I want to recommend a book that I just finished and that is The Vegetarian by Han Khan.
250
This cover looks way too cute for what this book is actually about.
251
This is a Korean novel.
252
I read the English translation.
253
And it's a novel about a woman who has the gall, the nerve to, instead of just, you know, being a normal,
254
everyday, just slightly attractive, slightly unattractive woman,
255
who doesn't attract notice, who never nags her husband, who's never annoying, who's okay with everything.
256
decides to make the horrendous decision of becoming a vegetarian.
257
How dare she make a choice for herself?
258
How dare she?
259
The rest of the book is about how multiple people surrounding
260
this woman deal with her making this choice for herself and her slowly,
261
I'm gonna say it again, losing touch with reality.
262
Losing touch with humanity even and wanting to completely turn into something else.
263
Let's just call it that.
264
This book gets very graphic at certain moments so I do want to warn about that.
265
It's one of those books that constantly almost becomes surreal but never completely
266
and therefore it lives on this edge of tension all the time.
267
I would recommend Feast While You Can if you are in the mood for basically just straight up horror, lesbian horror.
268
It is one of those books that perfectly blends the tension of the scary with the tension of the erotic.
269
It is about a small conservative town
270
and our main character has a monster living inside of her
271
that is obviously causing problems and also causing problems because she has to deal with this annoying woman,
272
this gorgeous really hot woman, who seems to be the only person that can repel the monster inside of Angelina.
273
It is a book about hunger, a book about feeling monstrous, breaking free from social rules,
274
breaking free from your own small town.
275
If you love the trope of a main character with a monster living inside of them, you gotta read this.
276
If you like your whimsical books to be very atmospheric, you know, like Erin Morgenstern, The Starless Sea, but you also like them with a little tinge of horror,
277
you know, a little tinge of weirdness, I highly recommend you pick up some Angela Carter.
278
And a great way to start with that is actually the Bloody Chamber, not just the short story, but the entire short story collection,
279
because this is all of her retellings of fairy tales.
280
And fairy tales are very whimsical, they're very silly, but under Angela Carter's pen, they become monstrous.
281
They become scary.
282
They become bloody and tinged with darkness.
283
Exactly how I like my fairy tales, honestly.
284
Her take on all the fairy tales in this are full of female rage.
285
It is definitely horror.
286
She can get a little graphic at certain times, so just be aware of that.
287
This next one is for the people who love weird stories about mushrooms.
288
I have to recommend to you Paradise brought by Jenny Val.
289
This is a Norwegian novel.
290
I read the English translation.
291
This is another novel about obsession and obsessive love.
292
Well, it's not really love.
293
Basically, we follow a young student who starts to live together with this kind of weird girl in this pretty weird house.
294
The house is like an old factory.
295
There is basically no privacy.
296
It's kind of falling apart at the seams and the girl
297
that she lives with they're not really speaking
298
but also they are kind of sleeping next to each other
299
in bed most of the time it's one of those books
300
that is about obsession something that takes over the body
301
so to say i love books that have a lot of imagery of rots
302
and mushrooms and decay and this book is full of
303
that just like feast while you can it has a strong theme of shame
304
and it blurs the edges between human and other organisms.
305
This is horror the way that I tend to prefer it
306
and that is not necessarily scary but mostly just making you feel really uncomfortable.
307
I don't know why I like that.
308
I don't know why I enjoy reading books
309
that purposely make me feel like I want to tear my skin off out of discomfort
310
but um I keep reading it and I will continue to recommend it to you
311
and if you know you know you know I know some of you guys like
312
that I know some of you guys also want
313
that well I have the books for you the next book
314
that I want to recommend is very dark it's not really fitting this this bright sunlight
315
that is hitting me right now and
316
that book is Slewfoot by Brahm this book is a good example of horror in the sense
317
that it is quite scary and monstrous it's my favorite kind of horror which is I would call dark forest witchy horror.
318
We follow a woman in a historical town in Connecticut who gets accused of being a witch and everything that follows after.
319
The revenge that she tries to take, the injustice that she is faced, but also the demon that is trying to strike a deal with her
320
and the demonic spirits that she starts to form bonds with.
321
Oh, that's a beautiful butterfly.
322
Hello.
323
Slewfoot is for the fans of the darker Ghibli movies.
324
Darkwoods, Spirits, Witches, and Vengeance.
325
If that sounds good to you and you're okay with reading some horror, Slewfoot is there.
326
And it has gorgeous illustrations, by the way.
327
This book is illustrated also by the author.
328
Beautiful.
329
And they perfectly also represent the vibe that this book has.
330
Oh, it's really one of the weirdest sci-fi books
331
and horror books I've ever read has got to be Annihilation by Jeff Endermere.
332
This is a horror book.
333
I wouldn't say it's particularly scary.
334
This book has just such a wonderful take of what it means to be scary
335
and that according to this book the scariest thing out there is actually the unknown.
336
You know the monster in a horror movie is the scariest the moment that you haven't seen it yet.
337
And that's what this book is It's about a bunch of scientists that go into Area X,
338
which is this contaminated area in the world where everyone who goes in doesn't go out
339
and the scientists are on an expedition, one of many expeditions, to figure out what is going on in Area X.
340
You constantly know that there is something going on, that there is some kind of monster or alien or being or human somewhere,
341
but you never fully understand it and it just keeps you on the edge of your seat the entire book,
342
but also really confronts you with your own fear of the unknown.
343
Especially, you know, because the main character is a biologist, a scientist, whose job it is to know things.
344
What happens when you just don't understand something?
345
You just cannot know something?
346
This book is weird in the sense that it plays on everything that is strange to us, that feels unfamiliar, that we don't know about,
347
we don't know what to feel about it.
348
This is the epitome of horror in my opinion.
349
Another book that has definitely made me deeply uncomfortable in all the best ways is Hunger.
350
This is a Korean novel and I read the English translation.
351
This is a book about a boy
352
and girl who get into a very codependent relationship
353
and it starts with our main girl finding the boy dead on the street.
354
And this is not one of those novels where the girl then wants to die to be with him
355
but instead she thinks I want the love that we have to live on for as long as possible.
356
I want him to live on within me forever so
357
that the love that we have for each other can live on forever.
358
So she eats him.
359
It's kind of nasty but really this book isn't about that at all actually.
360
In its essence this is a book about the awful working conditions
361
and workers rights in Korea and the guilt and the debt that this male character gets himself in because of poverty.
362
So on the one it is a novel about literal cannibalism
363
but it is also a novel about how capitalism eats you up from the inside.
364
Now next I want to recommend two books by, in my opinion, the queen of weird novels.
365
Of novels that will make you scratch your head, that will make you think, what is going on?
366
I do not understand.
367
And I personally really love that feeling.
368
I love when I'm reading a book and I'm just like, I don't understand what's going on, but I'm gonna try to figure it out.
369
And then once you finish it you go to reddit
370
and just search like ending explained to see what other people have interpreted the book as
371
and everyone always interprets it in a different way and i love
372
that every time i meet someone who has read one of
373
these two books i immediately love having a conversation on like
374
what do you think it was about you know i am
375
of course talking about mona what first we have rouge
376
which is a retelling of snow white and which means
377
that this is mostly a story about beauty
378
and a main character who is absolutely obsessed with skincare
379
and beauty routines and becoming the most beautiful version of herself
380
and she ends up in this spa-like cult
381
that you know promises her eternal ethereal beauty
382
and it's about how far we are willing to go for
383
that beauty but also it's
384
so it's i cannot emphasize enough how weird this book is
385
what i'm describing now it could just be you know like
386
an interesting literary fiction there's like a tom cruise in a
387
mirror there's jellyfish floating around it gets weird guys it gets real weird i love absurd books like this
388
that give a societal critique of something because it shows how absurd
389
our own daily lives are
390
or how absurd in this case the beauty industry is oh mona wad also writes horror
391
so it i personally don't think that her books are particularly scary
392
but yeah there may be some violence in here and some blood
393
and then of course i cannot make a video about weird
394
books without recommending bunny by mona one of my favorite books of all time yes it is dark academia
395
because it takes place at this prestigious writing school where you follow heather who is not like other girls
396
and she wears turtlenecks i don't know if i'm making
397
that up right now but i feel like she wore a turtleneck
398
and the other girls in her writing group are these like giggling girly rich girls
399
that she does not want to be a part of
400
but then you know they invite her to be part of their group with an envelope
401
and an invitation to a movie night and she is actually very fascinated
402
and i guess you can see where this is going thematically
403
you know it is about the absurdity of friendship between girls
404
and the link between jealousy
405
and obsession how women are played up against each other these are all my interpretations of the story
406
but i'm sure many different people have many different interpretations of this book because it gets again it gets so weird.
407
It gets so weird.
408
This book is a fever dream.
409
It is a tumble down a rabbit hole.
410
It's Mean Girls and Clueless on LSD.
411
And then I think one of my favorite weird little books about a weird little guy is Perfume by Patrick Suskind.
412
This is a German novel.
413
I read the Dutch translation, but there is an English translation as well.
414
This is a historical novel set in 18th century Paris, and you follow a man from the moment he is born to his adulthood.
415
And the interesting thing about him is that he was born without a smell, which is really unsettling to people.
416
People think that he must be some kind of devil.
417
There must be something wrong with him.
418
He is cast out and he becomes obsessed with the idea of smells.
419
And so he goes to school to learn to become a parfumier,
420
a par a parfumier a parfumier parfumier a parfumerist a perfumerist perfumier i don't know a perfume maker
421
so not only we get beautiful descriptions of him learning to make perfume and how
422
that process goes he also eventually becomes really obsessed with the
423
idea of creating the perfect female smell um i told you
424
he was a weird little guy i really feel like
425
if this was not set in the 18th century
426
but instead now he will be an incel he would be
427
watching weird manosphere videos all day on his phone instead of
428
you know doing something with his life men don't become perfumiers
429
anymore okay they're just on their phone watching manosphere videos this is for everyone who loves to read about obsession
430
and how it always leads to someone's downfall
431
And that is all of my whimsical and weird books that I have to recommend to you.
432
I think I have found out that I love weird literary fiction.
433
And I can't wait to read even more and more and more and more.
434
So if you have any recommendations, leave them down in the comments.
435
And also let us know in which area, which level of whimsicality and weirdness they fit into.
436
I had so much fun making this video, especially the little animations in this video.
437
i'm also like i'm like a little insecure about them
438
because this is like this paper animation is completely new to me
439
so i'm sure i'm making a lot of beginner mistakes
440
but i just had so much fun creating a craft
441
that is physical
442
and in real life i have been like a digital creator from the moment i learned how to draw
443
and paint ms but with like the rise of ai and technology taking over so many parts of the process.
444
I really wanted to challenge myself to do like paper crafts and physical artwork.
445
Not that I believe digital artwork is somehow lesser than physical artwork,
446
but it's just something that I wanted to challenge myself to do and it was so much fun to work on that.
447
So yeah, I hope you liked it.
448
I hope this video gave you some wonderful whimsical book recommendations
449
and inspired you to embrace a little bit of your own whimsical and weird side.
450
I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day
451
and I will see you soon with another video very soon goodbye
