Finally someone who shares my love of naps lol.
Oop why y’all ain’t add me in the buddy read y’all something else! Lol jk ima start fourth wing too cuz like you I’ve had both books forever Chile… I think I’ll do that audio as well but gah lee they gotta take too many credits lmao
LOL LOL We got you on the next one. But you and chasc.taylor_reads read books in like 8 hours-I can’t keep up😂 But let me know if you want to do one, I’m down. And yes my crackhead self bought 3 credits😬 But for Fourth Wing it’s sooo worth it🩷
@@BookmarkedByAlia haha yea she is also freaky fast lol but when I buddy read I slow the pace lol ima take ya word for fourth wing. Idk why it’s daunting. Guess I’ll read that next. Definitely tag me in the next one lol
@sunshineeflyy Freaky fast is for sure is the perfect way to describe y’all. Bout to start calling you all Jimmy John readers😂😂 Ok I got you😜
@ 😂😂😂
I’m proud of you !!!!! Look at us stepping out of our comfort zones!!!!! I have heard so much about credence! I think ima pass on it 😂 I love naps as well 😂
I know right?? I’m proud of us too🫶🏾 Who are we right now? LOL Girl, I can’t even function without a nap. I am NOT nice when I’m tired 😂
Love your videos and love your Tuskegee shirt!! My son is attending there now.
Thank yoooouuu!!🤗 Ayyyyyeee!! 💛♥️ That’s my alma mater! Thanks for watching!
I read Credence last year because of the hype and my jaw was on the floor. I finished it because it was the train wreck I couldn’t look away from. Fourth Wing is really good so I hope you stick with it.
Exactly! Definitely a train wreck😂😂 I’m really enjoying Fourth Wing-confused as ever, but having a good time. Thanks for watching🩷
❤
Love PotBelly! I have to steer clear of the cookies from them. Let me go try the soup. I just marked Credence off my list as you took one for the team. Love to see that you are a Nurse. ❤
Yes, I took one for the team so you don’t have to LOL Thank you & thanks for watching🤗
❤ Fourth Wing and Iron Flame. I hope you can push through the Fourth Wing. Thanks for sharing.
It’s so confusing but I’m pushing on… It’s really good so far! Thanks for watching🩷🤗
Great video, Alia! I, too, am trying to read outside my comfort zone. I just starting reading dark romances and mysteries. So far so good (knock on wood). I have Credence, but I haven't read it yet (probably not going to). Anyhoo, I hope that you're having a wonderful weekend and new year. Take care, 😊
Thank you!🩷 I like dark romances but Credence was just an odd story or maybe it was just that I wasn’t the target audience… I don’t know. Happy reading!🩷🤗
At least you tried it!! LOL 😂 I'm rooting for Fourth Wing!!!
I want my 3 days back though? 😂😂 Fourth Wing is good so far! I’m not mad about it at all!!🩷
Please try The Street by Ann Petry it's so Good
I added it to my TBR. I haven’t bought it yet but I will definitely let you know when I read it 🩷
Fourth wing was good im so glad I never read credence because i know i won't like it
Yeah, definitely wasn’t my cup of tea!😂
Yeah I don’t like saying he’s her Uncle…I don’t remember what I gave the book but I knew it was something I would never read again. 😂
That one has scarred me for life LOL It’s sad because I’m hesitant to pick up anything else by her but I always want to give authors second or third tries, but I’ll have to think hard about this😂
@ oh girl after that one I was like ummm that’s a no for me lol…my daughter has a couple other books by her but hasn’t read them and I know Brynn.D read Birthday Girl and hated it hahahaha
I am going to have to check out some of those books. I am currently reading Book 1 of Magnolia Parks. I like it so far. I am also reading Murder in the Family by Cara Hunter. If you haven't read this one, it's all multi media. It can be hard to read, so I have the audiobook to read along, but don't rely on the audio solely because you will miss some details.
Oooh I just looked that one up, it seems different but good at the same time. Magnolia Parks series is so good to me, no real depth, just a good toxic time 😂 Thanks for watching🩷
lol you saying you feel like a creep saying Uncle Jake 😂 I feel you on the mood reading. Mine has gotten bad lately I can’t focus on a single book lol.
I mean, she could have just called him Jake… that made it even more weird for no reason😂😂
Yes ma’am got to take a nap.
Always!!😂
I am reading 2 books , Iron Flame and BLOOD over bright haven has my attention bc I am a romance girlie so I am just showing out.
Yeas, you’re definitely showing out. I see you stepped out of your box too. That’s awesome! We gotta switch it sometimes right?? Thanks for watching!🩷
Commenting before I even watch 😂 “Uncle Jake” 😳😵💫 and YAY to Fourth Wing! Edited to Add: thanks for the shout out! 🫶🏾
Ha!!😂😂 I’m still mad I read that book… 3 days I’ll never get back LOL You’re welcome!Thanks for torturing yourself with me😂🩷
I felt the same way about Credence. I had to stop and download it on Audible. I still can’t finish listening.
The audio was worse. The FMC chapters were soooo monotone. I got through it faster when I was was physically reading it 🙄
That book was…interesting to say the least. It kept my attention I’ll give it that 😂
Lol! I attempted to listen to it on Audio. Couldn’t do it😂. Maybe the physical book is better 🤷🏽♀️
You have to try the dramatized version of audio. I don’t even know that was a thing, but it keeps you really engaged. I’m taking my time with it but we shall see🤞🏾🤞🏾
@ oh ok, I didn’t know it’s a thing either. Thank you.
@ 😜
@ 😂😂😂
Great hall, I am looking forward to reading Seven Days in Seattle :)
Me too!! It sounds so good 🤗🩷
Oh no,but if you like it I'm try it.
Stay tuned😬😬
I had an headache 😂. I couldn’t finish it.
Girl I’m about to be right there with you if this doesn’t go somewhere soon😂😂
Okay so Carrie Soto … I get it!!!! I need to do a huge haul I’m addicted to buying books now
LMAO!! It gets addicting for sure!! We just have to start reading faster than we buy them. 🤣 Are you liking Before I let Go??
Can’t wait for the review. 😊
I’ll definitely let you know LOL
You made it looks so aesthetic then pull out THAT BOOK…
Yep!! Stay tuned for my review😜
Oh hell no. Put that down…
I agree!! It’s NOT good!!
😂😂
Only one way to to know, stay tuned for my review😜
I really loved this one! 🌶️
I am awaiting your review of this 🧐
@@Casher2u So am I 😂😂
Wild women and the blues is soooo good!! P.s you are glowinnnnnnng. That sun is smiling on you 🥰
@@Nel_Be_Reading Awww thank yooooou!!☀️🩷☀️🩷☀️ I heard it was so good!! I can’t wait
I just grabbed Carrie Soto is Back from the library today. I hope to get into it this weekend. Happy reading! 📚
@@pookieneese3 I hope you enjoy!! 🩷🩷
I enjoyed Wild Women and the Blues. Thanks for the haul!
It does!! I can’t wait to get to that one! You’re welcome, and thanks for watching!!🩷🩷
Great book haul! I just read Luster last month. I would say it’s kind of dark, funny, burnt out, and interesting as far as growing in your 20s and surviving them. I would try it if I was you just to see how it goes. It’s not that long. The author writes very complex which was interesting to me as well.
Thank you!🩷🩷 But I ended up sending it back 🫣 Maybe I’ll look into at another time. But I just had a feeling it would just sit unread so… Thanks for letting me know about it though….you made it sound so much better than others have LOL. Thanks for watching🤗🤗
@ absolutely. And yea it’s kind of interesting once you get into it. I feel like it’s a hit or miss
I found a good copy of it at the goodwill. I hope to read it this year.
I started watching your videos 6 months ago and I came back to watch your first one. Love your commentary ❤
@@user-li8ql3il4c Ha! I think I’ve come a long way… from this comment it made me go back and watch for myself. Thanks for the support🩷🩷
LOL! Luster sounds so messed up and I am curious to know what you'll think of it, once you are done reading it. I am Ayah sounds like my kind of stories. I sure will await your review before purchasing it. (I have 2 free credits on Audible. So, I might just add Donna Hill's book.)
Girl Lister was a fast return back to Amazon LOL I bought that one on impulse, and I’m trying to do better about buying books that I KNOW I’m not going to read and I felt like that one was about to collect dust 😂 But I Am Ayah definitely sounds like it’s right up your alley… I can’t wait to get to that one! 🩷🩷
Hayeeee girl! I am excited about the wedding ppl I am about to get into my tbr. I’ve been reading some craziness on this new kindle lol but I miss physical books Chile. I gotta read James as well have you read that one yet? Anywho I’ll be following along with ya tbr on Goodreads! Lol
Heeeyy! Where you been?🤗 Nope I haven’t read James yet, but I might. A little ashamed to say this but I don’t remember A THING about Huckleberry Finn🫣🤣 Maybe if I get a recap of that, it’ll be better going into James. I’ll let you go ahead and tell me how it is first LOL. Yeah that kindle will have you in a chokehold with free books!!😂😂
@ lol spent the holidays in Disney world 🤩🤩🤩 but I’m back at it again lol I’ll let you know how it goes!
happy new year!!!! ⭐️🎉🎉
Happy New Year to you too🥳
