The Genre Swap Project

In my last post I mentioned The Genre Swap Project. This was started by 2 booktubers: Jesse from jessethereader and Andrew from HeavyShelves. Basically they partner 2 readers: one that reads mainly YA and one that reads mainly classics. The one that reads YA will send the one that reads classics a YA book and vice versa. This project is destined to help you expand your literature taste, getting to experiment with uncharted genres. Here are their viodeos:

I was partnered with Little Book Owl, an Australian booktuber. She sent me a YA novel: The Archived by Victoria Schwab, and I sent her a classic novel: Tess of the D'Ubervilles by Thomas Hardy (as you can see in the picture above).
Here is her video, opening the mail:

I also did a video opening the envelope and a book review one. You can see them here and here.

A tiny review of The Archived:
The Archived is basically a library filled with the histories of the dead. Sometimes the histories escape and the Keepers have to return them. They follow the histories through the Narrows. The older the History the more violent they are. The older ones are called Keeper Killers. Our protagonist is Mackenzie Bishop, who was thought everything by her grandfather, Da, and became a keeper at an early age. After her brothers death, her family moves into an hotel turned into an apartment building, The Colorado, where a mysterious murder happens - but the traces (the memories) are erased. And she is left to solve this case with a help of her new friend. Even though it is a part of a series, this could very well be a standalone book. If you see it in the bookstore please give it a chance, because it is a great story!
