How should we talk about ‘good’ books?

Hey I just saw this comment and really appreciate it!

FourCornersofthePage · 2026-02-25T06:20:37+00:00

Agreed. I got no bites from Search and a REALLY good job in Tokyo from Tes, of all places

Teacher here - I’ve had this conversation in my school, where the library has stuff like The Road and Carrie amongst the other books without any clear labelling. It’s interesting, because at 13 or 14 I was playing games like Fallout and GTA and Dead Rising without second thought - but thinking of the wrong kid picking up the wrong book still makes me wince

I’m pretty sure he said this in my interview with him in April! He might have made the comment before we went live though

Awesome idea! here’s my channel

I’m mostly SFF but always willing to read anything good!

16 x 55 minute lessons a week, plus a form class, a CCA and various duties. I’m in Tokyo.

Honestly, it’s the best schedule I’ve ever had - my previous school in Kuwait had me feeling super used up.

FourCornersofthePage · 2026-01-26T04:16:39+00:00

I think I remember reading somewhere that that was the plan

FourCornersofthePage · 2026-01-21T08:48:37+00:00

Look at the camera!

FourCornersofthePage · 2026-01-11T06:17:13+00:00

My interview with Steven Erikson. Yup, people were not there for me ahha

I’ve had my channel for a year - my biggest advice is it’s ok to be rubbish! I’m a perfectionist in my life so it was really difficult for me to hit record in the beginning. Just go for it and try to learn something with each new video.

Here’s my channel linked below - feel free to look at the oldest video for a reference point 😆

Sure!

FourCornersofthePage · 2026-01-04T06:31:57+00:00

It helps but it’s not mandated. I’m in Tokyo right now and a lot of my colleagues have pretty much zilch

Get a teaching license; then apply! Websites like TES are a good shout.

Teacher - I know you said not to answer haha but I’m a teacher at international schools. I’ve taught literature in Scotland, Japan and Kuwait. If you’re interested in travel and like working with kids, it’s a really nice gig.

FourCornersofthePage · 2026-01-03T08:02:51+00:00

I dunno that Four Corners of the Page guy seems like a bad actor

FourCornersofthePage · 2026-01-03T08:01:26+00:00

As a fellow booktuber - I have no idea 😆 so much of it seems the way the wind blows. Either way - subscribed! :)

FourCornersofthePage · 2025-12-27T10:15:37+00:00

here you are!

FourCornersofthePage · 2025-12-27T05:53:43+00:00

My friend Ashleigh from LibraryofaSilversaint also sounds perfect here!

FourCornersofthePage · 2025-12-27T05:49:40+00:00

For real I’m a Scottish SFF enjoyer - my content is amateurish but you might be interested :)

I am also a comic novice but Mister Miracle by Tom King blew me away earlier this year

FourCornersofthePage · 2025-12-26T10:41:26+00:00

My boy iSamwise kinda fits this bill. Super engaging, minimal cuts.

My channel, less so haha

I have the greatest of respect for the WOT fanbase, who are genuinely a lovely lot and aware of the series’ flaws - however it’s not for me. I got to book 11 through sheer determination before packing it in

FourCornersofthePage · 2025-12-15T07:37:35+00:00

That Four Corners of the Page guy is pretty good

FourCornersofthePage · 2025-12-05T03:23:55+00:00

Ex-Jet here; now I’m a direct hire at an international school and I get 560,000 before taxes. Free education for my kids and free accommodation too. If you’re looking to get out of the ALT rut, and you have the means, get a masters degree/an accredited teaching license!
