    Started writing comments for every book you mentioned but noticed there's actually a lot more book recommendations than I thought, so just wrote a few instead to avoid making a horribly long comment. The Push sounds disturbing, that happens to some parents - some people are born nasty and the parents can never really connect with them, there's nothing really that can be done. Can't choose your kids just like kids can't choose their parents (to start with). The Kind Worth Killing - Ted and Lily don't sound like particularly likeable characters. Seeing things from the villains point of view can be interesting, but if it's just the basic "I'm sad because my wife is cheating" that's not very deep or intelligent. I'm assuming the twist is Lily is tricking Ted because I don't see why she'd so quickly go along with it. None of This is True - Interesting that you couldn't figure out where the story was heading especially since you read a LOT, that shows that story must be quite original and unpredictable.

    So after giving Ali Hazelwood her 3rd straight 5 Stars with NOT IN LOVE, I decided to go back and read Love On the Brain & Love Theoretically... LOTB was awful(1 star) and LT was slightly less awful(2 stars) and of course, TLH was a 2 stars also... So moral of the story, AH's first 3 books suck, but her last 3 books are FANTASTIC 🤷🏻‍♂ The Push is one of my favorites and is GREAT on audio I'd say The Boys of Tommen will get anyone out of a slump...

    "Sometimes I Lie", "Middle of the Night" and "Wilder Girls" sound interesting! I don't read much anymore, because as a writer I get worried I subconsciously take ideas without knowing. Inspiration can be good but I don't want to accidentally copy plot points of a story.

      @@Vaquix000 that’s such a good point. I feel like from reading so much I do sometimes notice storylines feeling similar to one another. It does sometimes feel like original ideas are few and far between like with shows and movies doing reboots and making sequels just because it’s popular and beloved instead of making something new.

      @@carolinerichards_ I think it's because they're too scared of losing money so they just play it safe and use something that already has a fanbase. They forget they wouldn't have franchises to milk if they were as cowardly with movies in the past, there would be no star wars made in the 70's because they would be too busy remaking and rebooting things from the 40's. They wouldn't have that cash cow if there wasn't brave creators with passion that created it in the 70's. If people stopped seeing these reboots and sequels they would be forced to do something new, but for some reason people just can't get enough of seeing the same thing over and over. I only watch new things because I want to see creative new ideas. If we're in 2050 and there's still batman movies then that is sad, but I wouldn't be surprised. Sorry, bit long!

      @@carolinerichards_ "let the classics remain classics" exactly! It shows a lot more respect to a franchise to let them have an ending instead of dragging it out until it stops making money. Breaking bad for example could have just kept going since it was making a lot of money, but the creator chose art over money and ended the story and it's still remembered fondly because of that, meaning more people will be interested in his future shows. So it shows that spending more focus on the art is a better way of making money anyway.

    Hey, just a bit confused on why my comment on the last video wasn't liked/replied to and the other ones were. My guess is this part "Would be nice to know someone like you to ask about my own stories since you'd give great feedback whether it's positive or negative. Do you write?" Maybe it's because you'd think I'd keep trying to ask for feedback on my stories? Not sure. Wasn't really the intent though, was curious if you like to write yourself

      @@carolinerichards_ Oh okay I understand! Yeah, writing can certainly be less relaxing than reading, having to get into all these different character's headspaces can be daunting especially when a character in a really bad place mentally. A cozy kind of story that doesn't have characters like that might be more fun and better vibes for you to write if you wanna get back into writing. My stories deal with a lot of psychological trauma I've noticed. I like my villains to have more depth than say, something like lord of the rings where the bad guys are just simplistic evil and that's that, or like with how they made Voldemort in Harry Potter be some simple racist jerk. I don't recall him having any depth. It's the villains that have some decency, where you can see parts of yourself in them that are the scariest to me, not villains that just love to be evil or do a silly evil laugh or something. Sorry, bit long lol

    Well you know everyone is going to love the second book after Powerless, because all the GIRLIES who loved Powerless will have nothing but good things to say... They're BRAINWASHED because Sara, Destiny, & Haley told them it was good 🤣 I even hate that she copied the Chestnut Springs titles! I'm guessing her next book after Reckless will be called Heartless 😆 And you may as well read it because it BARELY fantasy... There's no world building... It's a ROMANCE(a juvenile one) with some stolen fantasy elements from other books like Hunger Games, Red Queen, etc. OK... I'm done. LoL. I swear, no book has ever brought out the HATE in me more than Powerless... I don't get it at all... Objectively, it's not good 👎🏽 I was hoping you would pick The Girl in 6E... This is a book that has lived rent free in my head... I only gave it 3.75 stars, but I did read it twice... I loved the whole CAM girl aspect but the thriller/mystery aspect was a bit weak, so curious to hear your thoughts
