Thank you for sharing this book review! I was searching for the perfect fall read, and this is perfect for the season. The cozy, calm setting you created is adorable-I loved it! <3
I'm so glad I've found your channel through this video!!! it was a really soothing watch :3
@@aleksat926 oh you’ve just made my day 🤗 thank you, I’m so glad you enjoyed!!
I'm curious about your thoughts of Rewitched because I've read already and it did not became a favourite unfortunately )--:
@@aleksat926 I rated it 3*, it was a good read, light and a bit cheesy in parts, but I enjoyed the themes and the friendship! What did you think?
@@jttreads I rated it 3* too, I enjoyed the overall vibe and plot but my problem was the pacing, some times it seemed like the story was dragging on without any plot development and other times it was extremely rushed for no reason. But my biggest problem i think was the writing, sometimes i loved it, it was good when setting the cosy vibe and background but i kind of hated the way author wrote the relationship. Like you said it was cheesy and in my personal opinion borderline fanfictionish 😥 BUT i also heard that it is a debut novel so if you look at this from that perspective it was okay
I'll be waiting for your video <3
I love T. Kingfisher's books and I'm excited for you to read 'Nettle and Bone'! I made my book club read it and it was well received 😊 But now I have to sleuth out which book you didn't like and won't name 🔍🤔
There's some language that I've noticed in King's writing that just gives me the ick. I wish I could enjoy his books like everyone else seems to! I always feel like I'm missing out but I'm not tempted enough to try again 🙃
I hope your reads are going well so far. Have a great rest of the month.
I am currently listening to the audio book for A Sorceress Comes to Call and I'm loving it.
🎃📚🧙♀️📚🎃
Happy spooky month!! 🎃💛
@@jttreads Thanks! Same to you. Enjoy your reads!
I love your reading journal!
ahhh thank you!! It’s just a mess of vibes on a page 🥲
@jttreads I make journals, and I LOVED the vibe. Tried to grab some screenshots, that was a fiasco. 🤣😅
The Secret History! ❤📚🤫❤
I liked The Storied Life of AJ Ficary but didnt like Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow. I think you should a5 least try it. 😁📚
Yay for Magical Readathon 🥰 Ive been doing it for 4 years (3 years as Orilium). I did Alchemist the first year but that was a lot so the past two years I've done Moon Warden
Hiiiii, newbie subscriber here... love the tbr game!!
📚🍂
My birthday was this month too
Happy birthday month to you!!
Thank you for sharing such a beautiful city with us. I hope you enjoy all your new books!
Thank you!! It was such a good haul, I'd love to go back!
Yay on completing July - love that bought books before finishing and forgot what they were. I read Hell Followed with Us, hope you enjoy it. I had a good time (3/3.5 stars).
I was so confident I'd complete the challenge :D I felt the same with HFWU! I did enjoy it, but it wasn't my favourite.
I hope your reads go well. Have a great month.
Thank you, you too!!
The repeated hair appointment commentary, meanwhile I'm over here looking like a ragamuffin 😵💫Looks like a good TBR pile for August!
I am heavily relying on dry shampoo & hairspray at all times :D
🕰️🕰️⏰⏱️🕰️🕰️
You're an unreliable rater who loves unreliable narrators
What a beautiful kitty! I also really loved Six of Crows - it's one of the books I'm sorry I can't read for the first time again...
I can't stop thinking about the duology & the characters, I wish I could read it again for the first time too!
The opening feels like Lore dumping for your renovations and channel 😂 I love Mario and your censorship of his behind. I don't usually watch wrap-ups but this was great with the humor (and Mario). Very thoughtful reviews of the books too which I appreciate.
Mario says thank you very much for joining us ☺️💛
I would call those books "Magical Realism" as opposed to "Fantasy" I really want to read A Witches Guide and Honey Witch. They sound like a lot of fun.
Oooh yes you're probably right! I must have momentarily forgot that genre existed, classic 😅 I haven't heard of A Witches Guide, love the sound of that!
❤🐱😅📚❤️ Thank you and Mario for the book reviews!
Thank you for joining us, friend! 💛
I discovered your channel through this video. Happy Reading! 😎📚👍
Yay, welcome in!!
Nice! Just found your channel! 🎉 I make videos too!
I love your little library!!
@@jttreads aww thank you 😊
Beautiful! ❤📚
I hear you. I live in Nortnern Poland and I'm always looking out for summer and sun 😑 I also see you have AFTER THE FOREST on your shelf! Have you read it??
I haven't read it yet!! Do you recommend?
@@jttreads Not yet. It's also on my shelf waiting. But I want to read it before Otober!✌
Another short Summer Reading vlog after I just watched the last one! 🎉 It was nice to watch the rain because summer here has been dry, extremely hot while also being stupid humid? Tomorrow is supposed to be 36°C but it feels like 40°C with the humidity. I've got 'Six of Crows' rotting on my audible backlog and I've always heard good things, so I really should bump it up in priority.
36°C!! I couldn't cope! 😅 I've also enjoyed the rainy cool days we've had this Summer! Oh I absolutely loveddd Six of Crows, please do bump it up the list & let me know what you think!
The ending 😂 Beautiful B-roll and love just a quick little vlog to have with my morning cup of tea. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much! 🥰 I don't know what happened to me at the end! 🙃
❤📚📚❤️
❤love how you put name on bottom
I'm so glad it helps!!
I just read the Borrowers last month! Such a gorgeous story! Happy July reading!
What did you think? I want to read the next ones in the series soon!
Such a fun TBR game 💕
Thank you, I have a lot of fun with it!! 🤗
If you're looking for witchy horror, I'd recommend Root and Bone by Jessica Raney.
Ouuu I’m going to take this recommendation. Thank you! 💕💕
I just finished the Shadow and Bone Trilogy. I am looking forward to hopefully reading Six of Crows in September. I hope you have a wonderful month.
Oooh please keep me posted on the Six of Crows progress, I am still obsessed with it!!
Stardust is my all time favorite movie, but the book I liked much less. I feel like Neil Gaiman creates beautiful stories and worlds but maybe I just don't vibe with his actual writing style because I also love Coraline but the book was kind of meh
I couldn't agree more! The book are very slow & light, but the films are much better! Especiallyyyy with Coraline, the book was average but the film is amazing
a few romances i like are quiet basic but they are "i wish you all the best" and "the song of achilles", also i think you may like "hell followed with us" its post apocalyptic with cults!
Oh I LOVEDDDD song of achilles!! Thank you for the recs, I'll take a look at I Wish You All The Beat! (I just read Hell Followed With Us this month!)
wow! i love your recs! very refreshing to see books that are not shoved down your throat by booktok <3
Lovely high praise, thank you so much!
Found you through your TBR game and stuck around for your sense of humor 😂 Hello from a fellow freak in the (spread)sheets though I have an engineering background, not accounting.
Ohmygosh what an honour, thank you so much! 🤗 Always love meeting a fellow spreadsheet lover!
Love this video! Your personality comes across great and was a fun watch!
That means the world to me, thank you so much :)
❤📚❤️. You did really well! 🕰The Borrowers was one of the very first books I read as a child that totally got me into reading!
Omg yesssss I love meeting more horror girlies 💕💕💕
Yessss so pleased to meet you too!! Love getting spooky with new besties!
love the atmosphere created 🖤🖤
Loved this video!! Your passion is one of the things I love most about you, so I am so happy & proud you were brave and started this booktube channel!
Thank you so much for the mention!! 🥺💖💖 Really enjoyed hearing your answers to these questions - especially the one about finally starting to post on youtube! Sometimes our mind is our real enemy, and I related so much to what you said about that fear of being seen as passionate. I am so glad someone else shares my dislike for hardbacks haha! 😆 And hell yeah for another Virgo - we sure love our numbers and coordination, don't we?! PS: Love the mug! ✨
❤📚❤️ Loved the video, Jess, and I look forward to more videos!
ALSO thank you so much for the kind words when tagging me 🥰
I am here... i am seeing... however UA-cam!!! decided to say i was subscibed from you and rude but so happy you tagged me so i can see this. Loved your answers to these questions.
Where did you get this TBR game? I love it.
Thank you so much, it's my pride & joy! 😅 I designed it & the cards on Canva & then got it printed at a local printing company!
@@jttreads If you ever decide to sell a copy, let me know. I'd love one.
