In this video, I’m pulling out the most popular books I own… that I still haven’t read yet. You know the ones: the super-hyped, everyone-and-their-mom-has-read-it titles that somehow end up sitting on your shelves making you feel a little intimidated. I’m basically doing a brutally honest look at my own TBR chaos and talking through why certain “big” books keep getting pushed back—whether it’s the pressure to love them, the fear they won’t live up to the hype, or just me not being in the right mood. As I go, I’m chatting about what makes a book feel intimidating (even when I’m genuinely excited about it), what I think I need in the moment to finally pick it up, and how I’m trying to approach popular books with less stress and more cozy curiosity. If you’ve ever stared at a famous book on your shelf like it’s judging you, this is your sign that you’re not alone—and that it’s okay to read things at your own pace, even when the whole internet has already moved on.
