    It's crazy how nobody is talking about the forbidden ebook Magnetic Aura from Borlest

    Having kids do something without really giving them very clear instructions really makes one realize how scripted adult life is. You ask a kid to show their favorite book and tell something about it, and they'll just be like 'I love this book because it's green and also I like this one word on this one page a lot'.

    Can’t get over how adorable the kids reviews were and look forward to more of them.

    Loved your boys sharing fav books. They spoke so well on camera. And really like that you & your wife picked books for each other.
  • You don't have to read Huckleberry Finn to read James, even if you know the basic relationship between Huckleberry and Jim you're good. And James is OUTSTANDING.

    Sick readings! I love The grapes of wrath. The ending blew my mind.
  • The kids did so well! Excellent choices guys! Let the Right One In is an awesome horror novel to consider.
  • These kids were ADORABLE!! <3 Would love to see more reviews from them. Also, I'm having so much fun seeing how fast your channel is growing

    Read Once there was a War about Steinbeck's experience as a journalist in WWII. I had just finished East of Eden when work took me to Salinas, California so I went to his grave site! Plain grave but ethereal place that is the Salinas Valley.

    Grapes of Wrath is an all time love of mine!! I agree with you about the ending and the theme of the book throughout. I think Steinbeck’s whole point was when we have absolutely nothing else, we always have to each other and from life we can give life. I loved the depiction of gritty and grey characters but family standing by family no matter what because life is just hard, so love hard! So much of the book, I had the song People Help the People stuck in my head. Also more kiddo segments!! That was precious!
  • I am now intrigued by that dinosaur book, please thank your sons for sharing!

    Your kids are readers! And love their reviews 🎉 Well done 👍

    Definitely Read Huckleberry Finn first. It was one of my favorite summer classics growing up. Made me wanna build a raft and float on the river and have adventures with my best friend. Of course it’s a product of its time but I never let that keep me from enjoying a book because it’s a piece of history. 😊 I think you will definitely enjoy reading it.
  • Omg your kids showing their favorite book was so wholesome 🤗🤗🤗

    East of Eden was one of the best books I've read. Such great writing.
