Hey, BookTube, it's Sylwia. I'm supposed to be posting this on December 31st.
Hopefully I am because this is my top favorite reads of the year video. I
picked 5 fiction novels and 2 non fiction novels and I stayed away from
the manga and the graphic novels because I have a feeling none of you care about
those. And I've been reading a lot of graphic novels in December and I just
didn't want to be biased. It's a lot of pressure to talk about my favorite books
because I have so many feelings and my favorite books are so politically
charged and so fucking feminist that I almost don't want to put myself through
the emotional pain of talking about how incredible these books are. I feel like
if you know me, if you don't know me then like go back a couple of videos and get
to know me, but if you know me you know what it takes to be one of my favorite
books. I am such a critical reader. I think I've embraced that. I'm- I'm
critical about is the plot clever, was there great enough representation, is the
book healthy for readers, what is the writing style, do I like the characters,
did I enjoy reading it. I'm so critical. I nitpick when I read books and I love it,
I love every second of it. Hopefully this is something you like about me. But
now that you know that, now that you know how critical I am, I feel like that's all
I need to tell you about these 5 star incredible novels that I need you all to
read. Please read Dietland. It is satire but it's extremely easy to read. You're
not gonna want to put it down. And it's the most fat positive phenomenal
goodness. If you don't know anything about fat positivity or if you've
struggled with fatness or your opinions on fat radical politics, please read this
novel because it teaches you everything I need you to know. I felt like when I
was reading it I was just like check check check check, you're beautiful. Like,
just kissing it before I went to sleep. Please read this novel. The Female of the
Species is a little similar. I would say it's even more basic. It's even more easy
to read, even though it's about rape culture. The author does such a great job
of talking about rape culture in just, like, a completely digestible way. It's a
little bit of a bizarre book. it's about a very violent murderous protagonist but
her murdering and being violent is directly a consequence of rape culture.
Please read it. Juliet Takes a Breath is feminist gold and it is about a Puerto
Rican New Yorker and she's queer and I think she's thinking about the label of
queer as she's learning about feminism and she's learning about queerness and
even about what it is to be a New Yorker she goes to another state to like
discover feminism and white feminism is dragged in this book and it's fantastic
and the fact that, like, not everyone has read this book is bananas to me. Just
wild. Out of this world wild. To, like, lower the tone for a moment.
I really enjoyed Fairest of All. I think this is more of a personal preference
sort of thing. Feminism really has nothing to do with it, I just really
really love the writing style in this novel. I've always loved it. I read half
of it in 2010 and I finally finished it this year. I really liked it and I am
looking forward to reading the other stand-alones in this series. Lastly, my
favorite read of this year was Graceling. I loved it so much that I actually have,
like, a standalone video in which I talk about 18 reasons why this book is
awesome, so I will link that down below. I just strongly recommend it. If you've
ever had any inkling of picking it up please do especially if you're a fantasy
fan I feel like it does the medieval fantasy genre justice. So those are my
fiction faves of the year and I still felt very emotional and passionate when
talking about it. And my two nonfiction which I will just very quickly mention
because I know most of you don't care about nonfiction but if you have to read
any nonfiction next year please let it be No Sweat which is a novel talking
about the psychology of motivation and specifically picking exercise as
something to focus on because exercise is something people hate doing and that
requires a lot of motivation. So this psychologist, this research psychologist,
talks about the science of motivation by using exercise as her examples and it's
it's fantastic and it's fat positive it is everything. And my second favorite
nonfiction work. If you could, like, guess this before I say it then that means,
like, we're truly friends and you truly know me and if you know it without
having ever talked to me then that means you truly know me and we should be
friends because my second favorite non-fiction read of the year was If the
Buddha Married by Charlotte Kasl. I cried and I love it and I live
for it and I am, like, the truest romantic there ever was. I don't even read romance
novels because I'm a more romantic than a romance novel could ever be, but this
this was romantic enough. If you're a true romantic like me you need to read
this and cry and just, like, take videos of yourself crying and share them with
me. So those are my favorite reads of 2017. A little bit different than I
usually do this but this was a trash reading year if you've seen my one star
reads of the year video. Please let me know down below what your favorite reads
of the year were even though I suck at responding to comments and therefore I
would actually rather talk about this on Twitter, so let's do that.
Tell me on Twitter what are your top 5 reads of the year? Come talk to me on
Twitter! <3 And have a Happy New Year!

Star Trek: Before Discovery (Ep.1 and 2 Spoilers) - Duration: 6:08.
Over thousands of years, human civilizations rose and fell on the planet of Earth, advancing
in technological capability slowly, as war, disease and natural disasters often hindered
development.
Yet after recovering from fighting two world wars, they at last achieved spaceflight and
in 1969, and began expanding beyond their planet.
Exploring their moon with manned missions they also sent unmanned missions beyond, gathering
information about the planets and Solar system around them.
Yet violence and division still ravaged the nations of the world, leading to a Eugenics
war near the end of the 20th century, resulting in 30 million deaths.
In the 21st century their spaceflight development continued, but was hindered once again due
to their third world war, spanning from 2026-2053.
Mission continued for a time, even during the years of war, but this war eventually
led to the use of nuclear weapons, which in the end claimed the lives of roughly 600 million
people.
Yet while many died, their knowledge survived, and after a decade of recovery the scientist
Doctor Zefram Cochrane invented warp technology, launching the Pheonix into space.
The first warp capable ship in earth's history was then detected by an alien vessel passing
through their system, who recognized the achievement as the last technological milestone needed
to initiate first contact.
Although quite different from Humans in many ways, physically the Vulcan species appeared
very similar to humans, likely having evolved from a common ancestor who spread their dna
across the planets of the galaxy.
A once violent species, Vulcans began to practice ritual meditation and over time were able
supress their emotions, using logic and reason to guide their lives.
As a result they were a largely peaceful civilizations, resulting in a new era of technological development
for the planet of earth, as they learned from the Vulcans and over the next century eliminated
poverty and hunger throughout the world.
By 2103, humans colonized Mars, and in 2150, the nations of the world were ready to unify
into a single government.
The following year, they launched the Enterprise Nx-01 to explore deep space and make first
contact with new alien life, with a Vulcan even serving aboard the ship as a sign of
the friendship and alliance between their species.
And while humans were grateful for their assistance, some had also grown impatient with the Vulcans,
who were hesitant to share too much, and risk sending humans out into a dangerous galaxy
unprepared.
In many ways this concern was justified, as humanities ignorance about other species and
cultures, as well as their desire to explore and claim new territory that bordered existing
powers, sometimes led to conflict and war.
Yet humanity also made new alliances and friendships through their exploration, which eventually
led to the formation of a coalition of planets in 2155.
Feeling threatened by the rise of this new alliance, a war with the Romulan Star Empire
erupted between 2156 and 2160, ending in victory for the coalition forces.
Defeated, the Romulans retreated into their borders and went into isolation for nearly
a century.
With the war won, the victorious planets formed a new partnership, creating the United Federation
of Planets in 2161.
Though the Federation and the Officers of Starflight who administered their space program,
were dedicated to the peaceful exploration of the galaxy, their mere presence near the
borders of other species sometimes bred conflict.
This was the case in the early 23rd century, when relations with the Klingon Species of
the Beta Quadrant soured, leading to years of cold war in which they engaged in small
scale border skirmishes, and fought an inconclusive Battle at Donatu V in 2245.
On one occasion, during what was later described as a Klingon raid of terror against a Vulcan
research facility, a pair of humans were killed, leaving their young daughter Michael Burnham
to be raised by the Vulcan Sarek and his wife Amanda Grayson.
She then went on to join the Federation and became first officer aboard the USS Shenhzou,
but never forgot the horrors committed by the Klingons, making her one of the few humans
who truly understood the aggressive nature of these mysterious aliens.
The Klingons were a warrior race who revelled in battle, and dedicated themselves to preserving
ancient traditions and rituals while adhering to a strict code of honor.
For centuries they were led by an Emperor and through their prowess in war were able
to conquer a large empire.
But eventually the Emperor's power diminished, leaving them to be ruled by a High Council
of 24 great houses that often bickered and fought amongst themselves.
Yet not all were blind to the way division weakened them, with a Klingon named T'Kuvma
from a minor house, coming to believe he was destined to reunite the Empire and make it
strong once more.
As a child, he rediscovered the lost ship of his father, the Sarcophagus, and dedicated
himself to repairing it, vowing to restore the honor of his house.
The ship then became his main base as he grew his following, and because he believed past
divisions needed to be set aside, T'kuvma even took in outcasts who were not accepted
anywhere else, like the Albino Voq.
With the Sarcophagus fully operational and an ever growing following, T'kuvma was able
to develop cloaking technology and was at last ready to fulfill ancient prophecy and
unite the Empire to face a new enemy, which he believed was the Federation.
And so he took his ship to the edge of Federation space, and arranged for both the enemy fleet
and the Klingon great houses to face off against each other, uniting the Empire for the first
time in many years to fight the Battle of the Binary Stars.
