塩辛いアンホールとたくさんの不満🧂 || 本のアンホール || 2025年9月 [CC]

Hey there! It’s Olivia-Savannah here from 
Olivia’s Catastrophe, and today it’s here to give you an unhaul, to clean through my shelves, 
to get rid of some books and make some space. So I’m someone who has quite a large library of 
books, and so books come in, they get read, they come out. Sometimes they come out, they 
don’t get read – different things happen. And we’re going to talk about all of that today. 
I’ve got over 20 books here to unhaul. As always, I’m going to start with the DNFS. Then we’re 
going to get to books that I didn’t like and therefore I’m not keeping. Then you’ve got 
the books that I enjoyed or thought were okay, but I think I’m going to get rid of anyway. Books 
that I really liked but I’m still getting rid of, which is an interesting one. And then we’re going 
to have some books that I didn’t even try and why I’m getting rid of those. So we’ve got plenty to 
talk about. Let’s get right down to the books. [Music] I’ve only got two DNFS for you today. So the 
first one was Unromance by Erin Connor. I started reading this late one night when I thought 
I’m in the mood for a romance, and I could not get on board with the writing whatsoever. 
It was really typical, like he’s a big, buff, rich guy. She’s a small petite little lady and 
they have a meet cute. They’re having a one night stand. I read the first three to five chapters. 
I read until the one night stand happened, and it was doing absolutely nothing for me. I 
didn’t really feel their chemistry. I didn’t feel their connection. I didn’t really like their 
characterisation. Then the steamy scenes weren’t very steamy to me or like weren’t very interesting 
to me. So all of that combined, I thought, I’m not going to read a whole romance book like 
this and I stopped reading. So of course I’m not going to keep it. Then another DNF is Honeysuckle 
& Bone by Trisha Tobias. I read half this book, so I made a very good decent chunk of 
the way through. This is set in Jamaica, so I took it on my Jamaican holiday, and I read 
about a quarter of it there and I was having a decent enough time. It’s about this young 
lady who’s a teenager. This is YA, actually, and she goes to Jamaica to be an au pair. She’s 
stealing someone’s identity in order to be able to do this. When she gets there, the house might be 
haunted. There’s something that’s kind of telling her to leave and they believe it’s a duppy, 
which is a Jamaican version of a ghost. And yeah, it’s about the characters you meet there, the 
staff that work there, why the people she’s been hired by are particularly strange. And I just 
was reading it and I was finding it really fine. Like I wanted better Jamaican representation. 
Like it just didn’t feel very Jamaican, even though it was set in Jamaica. The most that 
the Jamaican culture was mentioned was like, they’re Black characters. You know they drink rum 
and they eat Juici Patties, which is a particular brand of patty. It wasn’t very soaked in the 
Jamaican culture. They spend a lot of time in the house that’s haunted so you don’t go out and 
about. And that’s kind of what I was looking for when I picked this book up – something to make 
it unique and stand out – but it wasn’t giving me that. I was also trying, finding the plot really 
stale, and it just wasn’t interesting me. Things were happening quite slowly, and there’s tension 
within the character dynamics, but it didn’t feel that tense, and I just wasn’t really vibing with 
it. So my sister April has read the whole book, and I asked her, “Please spoil it,” and she 
did. And I’m glad I didn’t finish it, because I think I would have been very disappointed by the 
twists and that things didn’t quite add up with the twists in the end. Like things don’t really 
make sense. You have to suspend your disbelief a ridiculous amount. So I just, I’m glad I DNFed 
this. I saved myself some time there, even though I did read half of the book when I should have 
quit after the first quarter. Then we have books that I read and I really, really, really didn’t 
like. The first one is Tomorrow, Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin. I didn’t like this 
book at all. I’ve got a whole rant review for this, and I don’t want to go too deep into it, so 
I’m going to try and summarise in bullet points. The main thing that I didn’t like about this book 
is that the whole premise of this book is that it is about a strong friendship. And these friends 
spend the majority of the book not talking to each other, angry at each other, not communicating with 
each other, and not being friends. You cannot tell me this book is about friendship and the pinnacle 
of friendship when they spend most of the book at ends with each other. It’s also very coated in 
the male gaze. There’s one female main character. All the men around her seem to desire her. All of 
them can’t decide if they want to be her friend or be her lover. She ends up in a toxic relationship 
because of course she does. And it just– She is a woman in a gamer’s world and – which is very 
much a men’s world – and it could have been done in such a way where we understand, you know, 
the difficulties that she has to go through as a woman and how hard it is for her to exist 
in that space, but it’s not really about that, and it’s more about the toxic relationship that 
she ends up in. And I was just so, so frustrated by how male gazy this book felt when it’s coated 
in an industry that’s quite maleheavy already. It just didn’t need to do that. It needed to do 
something different. It’s also kind of pitched as being about them building a game together and 
building games in the gaming industry. And that’s all it is for 5 minutes, and then it just turns 
into a adult contemporary literary fiction book, because they build the first game and it doesn’t 
go into too much technical detail on what it takes to build a game. And once that game is done, 
the rest of the games are mentioned in concepts, but not particularly in the creative process 
or anything like that. So I didn’t get as much insight into the gaming world as I wanted to. 
I felt like I didn’t really ship any of the like romantic elements in this or like any of 
the romantic dalliances that we see, which is quite interesting because I tend to, you know, 
be able to ship a romance in a book that’s like, I don’t know, an epic sci-fi. I can find something 
to ship. And in this, I still found nothing, even though we had romantic relationships on the 
page. I wasn’t satisfied with the ending. I think this does something that’s really like baity, 
that you expect to happen, and then it pivots. And I was like, well, clearly it was going to be 
this outcome. This is what I kind of predicted would happen. And the thing that I hate the most 
about this book, like my number one dislike, is the disability representation. Nobody talks 
about the fact that one of our main characters here is disabled, even though that is a big part 
of his storyline. And yet it’s done just terribly, in my opinion. He spends all of his time hating 
his disability, pretending it doesn’t exist. It’s quite a la A Little Life, if I say so myself, 
in the way that he views his disability. And no disabled person can ignore their disability in the 
hopes that it will go away. No, no, it will only get worse. And also people who have disabilities 
kind of go through journeys with their disability. Yes, maybe they don’t. If they’re not born 
disabled, they may have a grieving period for themselves. They may dislike their disability in 
the beginning, but you don’t spend the entirety of your life stuck in a stasis the way that our 
main character is. There are other elements of the disability rep that I didn’t like. I’ve read 
reviews around it from disabled people and they also don’t like the disability representation in 
this. So even though this is coming from me as an able-bodied reader who lives and cares for someone 
who is disabled and is not part of the community themselves, it still rings true with own voices 
reviewers as well that the representation in this is very bad and very poorly done. So there’s many 
reasons to dislike Tomorrow and Tomorrow. There’s also the fact that there is articles around about 
how she plagiarised the main game in this and there’s also talking about her being a Zionist. 
So I’ll leave you with that. That’s the reason why I’m not keeping this book. Many reasons. Many 
reasons there. Another book I read and I didn’t really like and I, I can’t believe I made myself 
finish it. I really shouldn’t have done that. That’s The Murders in the Rogue Morgue and Other 
Stories by Edgar Allen Poe. This is dipped in racism. It’s not even dipped in racism. This whole 
thing is dripping with racism. Edgar Allen Poe was a racist. Don’t deny it. He was. And you can see 
it in these stories. And if you research about him, you can also see it. He was pro-slavery. 
He wrote letters encouraging slavery. Racist. So I didn’t really need to read these stories. 
I have been told that this is Gothic canon and heralded as such. Please can we remove it from 
Gothic canon? We don’t need racist authors there. We will remove Edgar Allen Poe. Absolutely 
and completely, thank you very much. Also, if we ignore the fact that some of these stories 
are racist and they are homophobic and they are ableist – particularly the last one which has all 
of those in abundance- if we remove all of that, they’re also just not very good. He takes a long 
time to describe appearances rather than tell a story. He loves to take a long time getting to the 
point. He also just loves to use many, many words when he could use much, much, much, much fewer. 
And most of the situations aren’t very scary. I’ve seen other author, classic authors as well, 
do these kind of tales but do them in a way that feel more haunting, that feel more gothic than 
these do as well. Any of the ones that were nautical bored me completely because I didn’t 
find them the least bit scary or intimidating. I just didn’t really have a good time with 
any of these stories. Bad stuff. I should have DNFed and I persisted because I collect 
these Penguin Classics editions, for people who are only watching this unhaul. I collect these 
editions. So I thought even if I don’t love it, maybe there’ll be a couple in there that I like 
and therefore I can keep and warrant keeping it. But my Penguin’s Library collection will never be 
complete because I refuse to collect the paperback edition of The Heart of Darkness, which I think 
is an incredibly racist, a very problematic book, which is heralded as anti-racist, which makes 
it all the more problematic. And because I will never own that Joseph Conrad book, my collection 
will never be complete anyway. So I can get rid of this. And then the last one I read and didn’t 
like at all is The Honjin Murders by Seishi Yokomizo. This one, the problem with this is that 
you can’t tell how much you will dislike it until you get to the part where the murder mystery is 
revealed and then you’ll realise how much you dislike it and how ridiculous it is. So I can’t 
tell you too much because it’s a murder mystery, but let me say: this is where feminism goes to 
die. That, that is a good summary for this book. It’s a translated Japanese classic, so it is a 
classic, which explains a lot of the mindsets that are perpetuated in this book. But I do 
just think the whole murder mystery – if we remove the fact that this is where feminism goes 
to die – is incredibly, incredibly unbelievable. It’s so unrealistic. Nobody would ever commit a 
murder in this way and be able to pull it off. So given that, given the fact that I found the 
detective was useless, given the fact that it repeated a lot of its evidence and I found 
it very boring for doing that repetition, combined with the overall feminism goes to die, 
I’m not keeping that. I’ve got quite a big stack here of books and this stack here is books that I 
gave three stars. So I enjoyed them, but I don’t need to keep them because I’m never going to 
reread a book that I give a three star rating. Some of these I liked more than others. I’ll get 
into it. Some of them are like three stars. That wasn’t great. Three stars. Middle of the road. 
Three stars. I enjoyed it, but it’s not quite four star. I don’t do .5 ratings. So actually, this 
falls into the latter category. It’s The Tenant by Freida McFadden. It’s a thriller. I read it, 
and I enjoyed it. It’s almost like eating popcorn. I just sat there, read the book, and watched 
the story unfold. The twists and turns were really good. I had a very fun time reading this 
book. The only thing about my thrillers is that I very rarely keep them, because I know the plot 
twists. I know what’s gonna happen, and that is where all the suspense and the enjoyment is taken 
from. I will never reread it for this reason, unless I did so on audiobook. So I just don’t 
need to keep my thrillers afterwards. But this was an enjoyable fun one. I’m planning to read more 
Freida McFadden. I just don’t need to keep it. I also don’t have that much space. I own over 1,500 
books. I live in a flat in London. I really really have to be creative and selective of my shelves. 
You can tell how selective I am from the fact that I have 1,500 books. But I’m trying. So the next 
book I have is More Days at Morisaki Bookshop. And this is the sequel to Days at Morisaki Bookshop, 
which I already read and unhauled. I read the first one. I thought it was good, but it was just 
okay. And I was like, I don’t need to keep it. But it wasn’t bad. So I thought, I already own the 
sequel. Let me read the sequel as well. And I did. And I have very similar thoughts. I thought it was 
good. It wasn’t bad, but I just don’t need to keep it. And I think I actually preferred the first 
one to this one. This one kind of takes a very different tone. It’s a little bit sadder and a bit 
darker, but it doesn’t bring the like bookshop, warm cosy feeling that I got from the first one, 
which is predominantly why I picked this, you know, duology of books up. So I just don’t think 
I need to hold on to it. I enjoyed this one a lot, actually. This is probably the three star that 
I had the most fun with and yet I just can’t keep it because I did still give it the three 
stars, not the four stars. That’s A Treachery of Swans by A. B. Poranek. This is a young adult 
retelling of Swan Lake, and it’s sapphic and it’s a YA fantasy book and it’s got things to do with 
like the ballet and the theater in it. So this is all ingredients of things I love. Swan Lake is 
my favourite of the Barbie films. Swan Lake is one of, is my favourite ballets, and one of the 
songs in Swan Lake that Tchaikovsky composed is my favourite piece of classical music ever. So 
I loved this predominantly for the Swan Lake retelling elements. I think it did a very good job 
with the Swan Lake retelling elements. It’s all up in there. And I just had so much fun because 
I’m such a fangirl for Swan Lake and nobody ever retells Swan Lake. As soon as I saw this was a 
Swan Lake retelling, I was like, I need it. I need it in my life. It’s also sapphic, so it was really 
fun to read this during Pride Month. And then the plot is actually good. I couldn’t predict where 
the plot was going. It had elements of magic. It had elements of mystery. It had elements of 
mayhem. This is such a fun book. It’s a standalone as well, and I find it very hard to find good 
fantasy standalones. so much fun. Do I think it is amazing? No. Do I wonder if people enjoy it as 
much as me if they aren’t as fan, aren’t as big a fan of Swan Lake as I am? Possibly. But I just had 
a good time with it and I don’t think I’m going to remember it in the future. It’s not going to be 
a long time favourite of mine. So I can just pass it on to somebody else to have fun with this as 
well who might even love it even more than I did. Then we have Kindred: The Graphic Novel. This one 
was a bit disappointing for me. I love Kindred. It’s one of my favourite books of all time ever. 
Octavia E. Butler is an absolute genius. And so I got the graphic novel because I wanted to see it 
with beautiful illustrations and brought to life with illustrations, bringing that pain and that 
sadness and the harrowing story and importance of this story to life through its images. This 
did not do that. I didn’t like the art style. I didn’t really like the colours. The art was 
not the best representative of this story. And so that’s why I can’t keep this because the main 
thing I was excited about it for did not deliver. It was really fun to reread Kindred in a shorter, 
more condensed version. That’s what this does. And I’m glad it’s out there because the people who 
only read graphic novels will only be able to experience the story of Kindred through this, you 
know, form of format, but I don’t need to keep it. Going to pass it along. We have Annie John by 
Jamaica Kincaid. I read this mostly on a plane and in Barbados. This is a story about Annie, who 
is a young child, and as she grows up, she gets her first period and she realises that now she’s 
considered an adult, people treat her differently. And her mum kind of starts treating her 
differently, and it’s about that slow realisation that your parents aren’t flawless. It’s very quick 
and short and easy to read. Jamaica Kincaid’s writing is beautiful. I’ve read it before. It’s 
really lyrical and lovely. I don’t particularly think this is the most interesting story. While 
it’s a really– It’s, it’s a subject that I don’t actually see much writing on, and I like that she 
chose it and that she wrote on it and expanded it. I also think there’s a lot more she could have 
done with that concept that this didn’t quite do. I like the fact that this was an islander setting. 
I don’t like the fact that this is so clearly sapphic to me. So clearly sapphic on the page. Yet 
the author is like, nope, no it’s not like, no, no, they’re straight. And I’m like ma’am, these 
girls are kissing. They are kissing in this book. So it just made me not really want to keep it. I 
read Broken Glass by Arthur Miller. I’ve read a lot of Arthur Miller plays. I typically really 
enjoy them. Broken Glass didn’t quite work for me. Not because of the disability storyline, 
even though it’s not my favourite thing about this. And I just, it just didn’t come together in 
the way that his plays do. His plays tend to have like one central theme and everything about that 
drives it home. But this one felt very fragmented. Now I know that’s ironic, me saying it feels more 
fragmented than his others plays, when it’s called Broken Glass, right. Fragmentation is a point 
here and actually fragmentation as a theme kind of reflects very well actually. Oh my gosh, while 
I’m talking about why this book is not great, I’m understanding more and more about this 
book and how he’s built it cohesively. So what I can say about this book now, deviating 
and forgetting everything I just said, is that this is not my favourite Arthur Miller book. It’s 
fragmented purposefully, but that fragmentation did not work for me as a reader in particular. 
I can see what he’s doing here. I can see it’s very clever. I can see this message is quite an 
important one actually, about how having empathy is important and good, and people shouldn’t be 
gaslighted for having emotions towards other people. Oh gosh, I really like this play now. I 
need to stop talking about it because the more I talk about it, the more I like it. Right. Well, 
today we are still unhauling this edition of Broken Glass. I might get a different edition of 
Broken Glass now, but we are still unhauling this one. This one was secondhand and like very cheap 
and quick to buy. Oh my gosh, I can’t believe that. Right, moving on. We’re still unhauling 
books. We got a bit sidetracked. Now I’m unhauling Anyone’s Ghost by August Thompson. This is an 
adult literary book about the three car crashes that it takes to kill Jake. And so for most 
of this book, they are teenagers. And I didn’t really enjoy the experience of reading an adult 
fiction book that is all about teenagers. They’re also cheating the whole way through this book, 
emotionally and physically. And I’m not someone who enjoys books about cheating. So that’s the 
main reason this, why this one is going. It also like failed to romanticise the steamy moments. And 
I like a little bit of romanticisation in those moments. I don’t think it needs to be so realistic 
as this one did it, because sometimes you get the ick when something is a bit too realistic. So I, 
I read this. I had a decent time. I just don’t need to keep it. So the next one I have is A House 
for Miss Pauline by Diane McAuley. And I actually read this one on the plane too and while I was in 
Jamaica as well. It is set in Jamaica, and you’re following an elderly woman whose house, kind of 
the stones in her house, start moving. And she’s trying to figure out why. And a lot of that has to 
relate to her past. Now based on the synopsis, I thought more speculative stuff was going to happen 
in this than did. I don’t mind that it didn’t. I still liked the story that we got. I think the 
pacing was a bit off. For long stretches of time, it felt very slow. I didn’t quite understand the 
point we were getting at by seeing these scenes and still some of them feel a bit irrelevant. But 
I did enjoy following such a elderly, sassy main character. I also loved the setting. It’s set in 
a Jamaican countryside or the equivalent of the countryside in Jamaica. And all of this is written 
in patwah. And when a book is written in patwah, you just get more of a sense of the culture, 
because that is exactly how the people talk. That is exactly how the people think. Combined with the 
like sweltering heat of the Jamaican countryside, I could just so clearly imagine being there 
and meeting this kind of woman. This kind of woman definitely exists in Jamaica. And so 
I had a fantastic time reading about this, kind of just going through her life. So even 
though it was slow and it was steady and it was winding and I’m not sure the ending paid off 
and I wanted more speculative elements, I greatly enjoyed the journey that I got. It’s more so, I 
really dithered. I ummed and aahed about whether to keep this book or not and it just comes down 
to the fact that I don’t have that much space. Another one I had a good time but not a long 
time: The Harrowing. It’s a graphic novel. It’s about people who can see crimes before they’re 
committed and whether or not they should condemn you for that or what they should do to you if you 
haven’t done it yet and they managed to stop you before that happens. I think it was a very cool 
concept and it didn’t quite get pulled off or delve into the depths of that in as much detail as 
I wanted it to. I think it needed to be a duology, and it’s a standalone. I liked the art. I liked 
the colour scheme. I liked the concept. So I had a good time. I just think it didn’t pull it 
off quite as much as I wanted it to in the end and I’m not going to keep it. A Method, A Path 
by Rowan Evans. I read the first half of this. Really enjoyed it. Loved the language. Loved its 
playfulness. Loved all its messages about nature. I got to the second half and boom, there goes my 
understanding. I didn’t understand a single poem and if I don’t have a grounding of meaning, then 
all of this beautiful language means absolutely nothing to me. So this started off very strong 
but landed flatly for me, and I just can’t keep a book that I didn’t particularly enjoy all the 
way through. And then last but not least, we have this graphic novel – Tamlin by Aven Wildsmith. 
I just picked this up on a whim randomly while I was at a festival. I read it like the next day 
within half an hour. It’s a graphic novel that’s got a poem behind it, and it was good and it was 
nice and it was fun, and it was well worth it for that half an hour. I just don’t need to keep 
it. So now we’re moving on to another fun point, which is books that I really, really enjoyed but 
I’m just not keeping for whatever reason. Now, the first of these is Deadman Wonderland vol. 
1. This is all practicality because I have a shelf that is full of my graphic novels and manga. 
It’s right over there and it’s full. It’s full and it’s predominantly full of manga. I take a while 
to read manga, especially as I’m not very good at reading sequels. I’m naturally a standalone 
reader. And I’ve got the full set – like I don’t have the full set on my TBR – but I’m halfway 
through Death Note. I’m halfway through the first, you know, set, series of Tokyo Ghoul. I’ve got 
all of Jujutsu Kaisen and I’ve got all of Blue Exorcist. That’s four manga series. That’s 
going to take me a hot minute at the pace that I’m going. And so, while I read Deadman 
Wonderland vol. 1, and I really enjoyed it, and I really want to continue, realistically, 
it’s not going to happen for several years while I try and finish the manga series that I currently 
own. And how I buy my manga is on eBay. I usually buy my manga secondhand. Jujutsu Kaisen was an 
exception, but that’s because buying it brand new was the exact same price as buying it secondhand, 
because it was while the anime was popping off. So I predominantly buy my manga secondhand on 
eBay, and it’s more cheap and easy for me to buy a complete set from someone than to buy all the 
volumes barring volume one. So it’s just practical reasons why Deadman Wonderland vol. 1 is going. 
Then the next one I have that I really enjoyed is The Romantic Tragedies of a Drama King by Harry 
Trevaldwyn. I read this. I had a good time with it. I actually thought it was very fun. It’s very 
cute. It’s kind of a upper middle grade, younger YA queer contemporary story. Very cute, really 
lovely. Your girl has 1,500 books. She can’t keep them all. And I was looking at it and I thought, I 
just don’t have to keep this. Will I realistically reread it? No. So that’s not the bar that I set 
for all my books. Sometimes I know I won’t reread it and I keep it, but let’s pretend it’s the bar 
that I mostly set. And that’s a similar reason why I’m unhauling Outrage by Ellen Jones. So this 
is a non-fiction book. “Why the fight for LGBTQ+ equality is not yet won and what we can do about 
it.” It says it on the tin and that’s exactly what it is. And I read it and it was a very good, it’s 
a good starter point for people who are on their queer understanding allyship journey and want to 
do more. So it’s good for that. I’m quite far into that journey now. I’m no longer a starter. So half 
of this information is good if you’re a starter and the other half of the information was new to 
me and I took it in and I appreciated it. There’s also a lot of what other people are doing at the 
moment to help and what you can do to help. And I basically did nearly all of those. I actually took 
this book practically and did the things that I knew that I could do. So I feel like I’m done with 
it. Like I’ve done I’ve mined it for information. I’ve done the things they told me to do and let 
me pass it on to somebody else. So that’s why this one is going. And then last but not least, 
we have three books here that I’ve decided I’m not going to try. The first one is The Whistling 
by Rebecca Netley. I was just choosing books on my shelf. I was choosing what to read next, and 
I looked at this book and it looked at me and I thought, when am I going to read this? When am 
I going to prioritise this book? And I thought, I’m never going to do it. So I shouldn’t keep it. 
So it’s going. I also have been really following close attention to my friends as they’ve read 
Feast While You Can by Mikaella Clements and Onjuli Datta. Nobody has liked it. None of 
my friends whose taste that I trust. And so I decided I don’t want to try it anymore, you know. 
And then last but not least from those books, I have The Consolations of Philosophy by Alain de 
Botton. Again, I was looking at my classics shelf trying to choose which classic I shall read next. 
And I looked at this book and it looked at me and I looked at this book and it looked at me, and 
I thought, when will I prioritise a non-fiction book about philosophy that’s a classic, and I 
thought never. And so I decided not to keep it. This was also one of the books – I really thought 
I was better at this than I am – but when I go to a charity shop, I donate loads of books and I 
usually pick one up. And this is one of the books I picked up, and I didn’t need to pick it up. It’s 
going to go right back to the charity shop. I have gotten so much better at not doing that anymore. 
But apparently I still have my weak moments. So there we have it. Those are the 20-something books 
that I am unhauling that I’m clearing away from my shelves. Got plenty of books to keep me busy 
and I’ve got plenty of books on my read shelf as well. So don’t you worry. We shall continue as we 
mean to go on. Please let me know in the comments section down below: what was the last book that 
you really enjoyed, but you just don’t feel like you need to keep it? Have you read any of the 
books that I unhauled here today? Have I made some grave mistakes? Give this video a thumbs

Hi! I’m Olivia-Savannah. I studied English Literature and Creative Writing at university, and work in publishing (Pan Macmillan, Tor). I’m based in London, the UK but I visit The Netherlands where some of my family live from time to time. I love reading, writing, travel, yoga and working out, cooking and baking. I enjoy reading all genres and age audiences. I’m represented by Salma at The Greyhound Literary agency. Nice to meet you x
