I love love love your reading vlogs! Now I want to read something horror! The last one I read was 'My heart is a chainsaw' (thank you for gifting it to me 😊). Which one would you recommend I should pick up?

Ooohh, I love spooky book recommendations...🫶.

Welcome to booktube 📚☕

Toast was sooooo adorable when she asked you to take her out!🥹 Also, The Last Murder sounds really interesting!

First of all you fixed that shelf so well! I could not even tell it was once broken! And second, you have sooooooo many books! Haha! I was loving seeing the physical editions of some of my favorite fantasy books! It was so soothing to see all the books in a series put together, if you know what I mean!😊 Also, whenever you and Connor decide to buy a house, I absolutely cannot wait to see your library!🥰

Great wrap up! From Below is definitely not one for me. I get terrified even being on a pier that’s over the ocean!😬😂

So happy to know Connor will be back soon! Reading his Instagram posts has been an adventure in itself! Both of you have a way with words and explain things so well! Your book reviews got me back into reading!😊 Loving The Bone Season series! So happy we decided to re-read it! I had forgotten so much as well! I actually kind of remembered the first book quite a bit but the second feels like a new book altogether sans the climax. The Galaxy and the Ground Within sounds something up my alley! I will definitely give it a read! Not sure when but it's added to my TBR list.😊

I loved this vlog so much! I have never been to any Convention (except the Nail Polish one but that's mostly about shopping), so this vlog was very interesting to me! Thank you for summarizing the panel discussions as well! I have not read another horror book after 'My Heart is a Chainsaw' which I absolutely loved! May be I will pick up 'Lagoon' after your review! The summary sounds more up my alley! So happy you had such a fun time! It's a blessing when you share hobbies with your siblings! One of my sisters and I, both do nail art and collect nail polishes, I went to the Convention last year with her and I had a blast! So happy both of you had such a wonderful trip! Thank you for vlogging your experience! I was very excited to watch it!🥰

The topics you mentioned sound very interesting. John Carpenter and Lester grew up in the same town of Bowling Green, KY. I believe his dad was an art professor at Western Kentucky University where Lester and I graduated from.

Holy cow! Those sound great! Especially the first one about books with human binding, the one about the science of horror movies, and the one with the lady that works in the crematory. I would read all of these, and I will also recommend Mind Hunter by John Douglas. It is about the origin of the FBI serial killer profiling program.

Cori Ten Boom's story is very inspirational!

OMG Sara! I am so happy you were able to get back into your apartment! That is one of my biggest fears! Being locked out with noone to help me out! I am glad you have such wonderful neighbors!🥰 Loved the scarf and the blanket! I can't even imagine the joy of wearing something you crocheted for yourself!😊 Congratulations on getting the second certification!🎉 I felt the exact same way about Bone Season! I thought I will just skim over the chapters but the book completely pulled me in! Could not put it down!

I have never read a book owing to a 1 star review! But now I desperately want to read all the books mentioned in this video!

such a cute vlog! new sub here!!!!!

Thank you sooooo much for the shoutout!🥰 I am so happy you decided to buddy read the books with me otherwise I would not have re-read them. I am enjoying them so much! I could not believe how much info I had forgotten!😳 I also absolutely loved that you picked up crocheting! Cannot wait to see the finished scarf! It already looks so beautiful! I loved the crocheted Baby Yoda outfit your mum made for my baby and will cherish it forever!🥹 Also, I wish I could read gross & gore books as I want to read everything you give five stars to! Absolutely cannot wait to start Electric Kingdom!🥰

Thanks for this, I got a few good leads here -- Electric Kingdom, Hunted. I already have a couple others in your top tier. Thank you for doing this!

The nails look so cute on you! I really love the design!😍

The last book I read was Tom Sweterlitch's The Gone World. I would be interested in hearing your take on it.

I ❤ Toast!

Absolutely loved this video! Now I want to read 'The Last Murder....'!🥺 I am going to try to answer the questions! Might be a long comment again! I am so sorry! 🙈 Best book read so far: House of Flame & Shadow (it's more like 4.5 stars for me coz you know I didn't like the ending! But I absolutely enjoy everything that Maas writes and this book was no exception.) Second one is 'Echo of Old Books'. Best sequel in 2024: War of Two Queens (Blood & Ash series Book 4). The characters jumped right into action starting from chapter 1 and there was wayyyyy less conversation! Absolutely loved it! New release in 2024 that I want to read: It's a pretty recent one actually 'The God and The Gumiho' coz BKL just posted about it, they are loving it, so now I am curious! Most anticipated release of second half: None, as of now! :( Biggest disappointment so far: You already know, 'A soul of Ash and Blood (Blood & Ash Book 5) Biggest surprise: Echo of Old Books (not my usual high fantasy genre but I could not put it down, was recommended this book by an IG frnd) Daughter of the Moon Goddess: Didn't expect to like it as much as I did, may be coz I went into it with very low expectations! New favorite author: (Unfortunately) none, so far. :( Newest fictional crush: None :( Newest favorite character: Reaver from Blood & Ash series Book that made me cry: Fortunately none so far :) Book that made me happy: I smiled here and there while reading a couple of books but nothing made me laugh so far! :( Most beautiful book bought: You know I almost exclusively purchase Kindle editions but I thought the cover of 'Throne of the Fallen' was beautiful! It was also the first book I read this year!😊 Books I need to read by the end of the year: (A lot!) I want to read Electric Kingdom, The God and The Gumiho, Ruthless Vows (Divine Rivals Book 2), Mistborn Book 2 by Brandon Sanderson and finish re-reading the Bone season to prepare myself for 'The Dark Mirror'! (Soooo excited about it)😊

Fantastic Land sounds soooo good but I am scared of reading horror novels!🙈 I absolutely loved the one you gifted me (My heart is a Chainsaw) but I havent dared to read any other horror novels after that one. Cannot wait to know how you liked Fantasticland. Also, I have finally decided to read Electric Kingdom. Just waiting for double/triple kindle point days to download the book.😊 I LOVED the earrings on you! And absolutely loved the ones you got from the market. The horror book event sounds so exciting. Will you be vlogging the event??

Absolutely love this video! I loved the Midnight one as well! I won't call myself a swiftie but I do love Taylor Swift and her songs a lot!🥰 City of Brass and The Starless Sea sound really interesting to me! I may pick them up if Bees Knees can stop releasing collections based on books or release a collection on something I have already read!🤪 Not that I am complaining about the beautiful polishes!😊 I almost squealed with delight as soon as I saw HOEAB included in this video! I was really hoping for a SJM book to make the cut!😊 I would love a video if you can suggest books based on your favorite BKL polishes or nail polishes in general whether they be inspired by the book cover, story or just the name!🥰

So this is going to be a loooooong comment! Please bear with me!😉 First of all, I wouldn't mind a 2 and a half week vlog from you because I love your videos so much!🥰 I almost got teary-eyed seeing the BTS poster in your room! Jin is about to come back and I am so excited, not only for his return but to see if he releases any individual albums or collaborates with other artists! Also, Electric Kingdom sounded so interesting but unfortunately I refrain from reading any books that have a sad ending!😢 I can't handle them for some reason and keep thinking about them for days! So please tell me if it was a sad ending or a happy one! I am so sorry it made you cry but that also showed how invested you were in the book! If it's not a sad ending, then I am going to give it a read! Currently, I am still reading Daughter of the Moon Goddess and absolutely loving it!😊 Also, extremely sorry about all the construction noise! I hope it didn't go on for days! They should have given you a warning!😡 So sorry about the 'thesis' of a comment 🤪 but I absolutely cannot wait to see your next vlog!🥰 And loved watching Toast enjoying the sun! 🌞 P.S. I knew I was forgetting something!🤣 I absolutely love to see what other ppl have highlighted in a book or their notes! I don't read a lot of physical books so I do not encounter notes and tabs from the previous readers often but in Kindle, they do highlight any quotes or sentences (with a dotted line) that have been highlighted by several readers! Some ppl find it distracting and turn off the feature but I absolutely love knowing that, so I always get happy whenever I see the dotted line on a page! It also shows you the number of ppl that have highlighted the quote or sentence!😁

I am soooo happy you are back Sara! I missed your videos!🥰

This was such a wonderful vlog! Girl I need to see your bookmark collection!🥰

thanks for taking is on your amazing adventure!❤

Very cool Sara!

I was waiting for this video! I think I guessed some of them! Hopefully will be able to pick up a few from the list this year!🥰

this is so cute and helpful i luv u

I am so happy u made this vlog coz I was very curious about Colleen Hoover books! I dont read romance either so never picked up any! So happy to know your thoughts abt the books and writing! Also, I see Bloodmarked in the background! Can't wait to know your thoughts abt it coz ur review made me read Legendborn and I absolutely loved it!🥰

Gonna be honest, I'm not a great reader haha! But seeing your thumbnail and how passionate you look, gonna watch this whole thing while I draw :) Who knows, maybe I'll read some eventually !! <3

I am so excited to know your thoughts on the sequel to 'My heart is a Chainsaw'! I loved reading it! It was totally different from the high fantasy books I always read and I was surprised how much I liked it!!! And Congratulations on winning the book!🥰

I absolutly have to read The Silent Companions. Have it for ages and never pick it up because I am hyping it so much I am afraid to start reading it

I love this tag! Not only got to know some of your fav books but animes as well!😊

Great work! Love the video

things have gotten worse since we last spoke is one of my fave spooky books of the year imo!! it was so weird yet so """refreshing"""? idk it was a vibe and i loved it

I didn't ask but I didn't even know I wanted to read them😎👍

5-7 is pretty average for me to but I start to pick it up during fall and winter to shoot for 10 if I can..... What is book of the month exactly? It's it worth it I've come across a few booktuber talking about it.... Great video... Subbed

obsessed with the concept for this video... i am READY. ooh the grace year! i remember people talking about that before it came out, but i feel like i completely missed any hype it got. im INTRIGUED. oh man the bone season... i SWEAR i'll pick that up when more books are out. it's like brando sando--waiting for a ten book series is like a marriage commitment, think of the YEARS!!! oh my god slow burn horror with messy characters... I FEEL DIRECTLY ATTACKED. yes yes yES YES plain bad heroines is PERFECT for this!!! i'm intrigued by the space between worlds--ive seen it in stores but i didn't know much about it. this is such a good selection! GOD beasts of extraordinary circumstance sounds so good, i just keep forgetting it exists for some reason. SOMEDAY! someday... oh bitch!! i feel like ive hyped up im thinking of ending things so much for myself that im so afraid im going to hate it (crying emoji). oh i remember when lore came out and for some reason a lot of people hated it?? i thought it was GOOD though? maybe its because i dont read a lot of stuff like it. OOH BLOODBORNE im ready. SIX GUN TAROT!!! i thought this was on my tbr from the last time you mentioned this but i guess not? THANK YOU For reminding me. it sounds so good. omg iron widow.. YESSS. i feel like "the change" might also fit a feminine rage prompt minus the transformers... "middle age suburban women finally snap and blow up a town" might be a good prompt for that. THE PROMPT FOR PIRANESI FITS SO WELL literally my experience reading that book akjsdf;akshdf utterly destroyed me. SUCH A GOOD VIDEO!! this was so fun. (sorry ive been flooding you with messages today. i've been sitting at my computer all day so it's like... ALL COMMUNICATION ALL AT ONCE. typically i only turn my computer on to edit videos XD)

I screamed when you mentioned Connor asking for a recommendation that is similar to Bloodborne. One because Bloodborne is one of my top games, and two because I literally had Bloodborne vibes when I read Dreams Lie Beneath by Rebecca Ross.

OKAY i am READY for this video. i tried to read a nonfiction book a month in 2020, but i fell off the wagon in early 2021 after i wasn't super happy with what i was picking up. right now that ONLY nonfiction on my ENTIRE tbr is "i'm glad my mom died" and i DEFINITELY need recommendations. ooh radium girls! that's what started the whole nonfiction thing for me in 2020, haha. i STILL think about that book... terrifying, and so insightful into how influential these young women were into the worker's rights movement--usually we think of burly coal miners. oh the devil in the white city! i hope you enjoy it! i got kind of overwhelmed with the architectural stuff but that's DEFINITELY on me as someone who like... actively hates architecture (the curse of having previously worked for a construction company). CHESS??? girl your BRAIN!!! i tried to watch the queen's gambit but i feel like i was just along for the vibes because i just did NOT get what was going on with the actual, like, chess part. your braincells must be beefy. WOW sin in the second city sounds SO INTERESTING!!! 👀same with warriors, witches, women--i hadn't heard of either of those! great video as always!! <3 <3

week 2 here we gooo! OMG JAWBONE! i love that your justification for reading this is basically that "it's always sunny in Philadelphia" meme of the guy with red string going IT'S ALL CONNECTED lol. god the summary for jawbone is just... so much. obsessed. oooh, congrats on the beta read! i hope it goes well! WOAH JAWBONE IS FUNKY it looks exactly like "ghost wall" was formatted--with those massive paragraphs that contain multiple dialogue exchanges, etc.--ghost wall also didn't use quotations half the time and it DEFINITELY threw me for a loop. oh man i'm so intrigued. oooh parenthesis and em dashes... an attack on me specifically lol. aww, i'm sorry this wasn't a total winner for you. i am definitely still intrigued, although i am a little apprehensive about what you're saying with regards to sexual awakenings through a horror lens. i can absolutely see how that would be uncomfortable. HOWEVER you're checking all of my boxes with the bunny and my heart is a chainsaw. nooo you don't have a tiny little pea brain! take it back!! ooh interesting! i always take off dust jackets when i read bc i think they ALL feel weird--i like the feel of the books best. man, a forgery of roses sounds so cool--goth fantasy vibes!! oh nooo. it sounds like it would have been better if it had been adult and/or longer? bummer that it didn't hit the mark! TRIPPING ARCADIA OOOH i can't WAIT to hear your thoughts. i literally just bought that today, haha. this readathon sounds like it was so much fun!! great video!! can't wait for the next!! <3 <3

Oooh a vlog!!! i can't wait!! these are always so fun to watch (: im glad you're enjoying the readathon! omg im sooooo glad youre liking (you liked!!) gideon the ninth! oh wow! i had no idea you were an editor? omg wait pausing to go watch the new mexico vlog... OKAY BACK. girl i totally get it about the quarter life crisis thing. going back to college was a crazy huge change for me, and now that i'm doing grad school im kind of wondering the same thing--where do i go from here, what do i want to do long term, etc. im sure work will pick up soon! like you said, you've only technically been at it for like two weeks because of COVID!! dont get discouraged! oh man i am sending you SO MANY GOOD VIBES BEAMS!!! ooohhhh man you're making me so excited for my GTN reread (crying emoji) it's so hardcore!!! omg i love your bookmark... so cute. OOH CONGRATS ON THE JOB OFFER!!!! OH NO GIRL YOU GOT TO THE END!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! welcome to pain and hell. >:3c it's funny you bring that up about the love hypothesis because gideon the ninth was tamsyn muir's first non-fanfiction work, and she was pretty well known in the fandom for her fanfiction before she did her original stuff. i'm glad you're enjoying the love hypothesis! it's absolutely dumb as fuck and SO FUN. the ridiculous setup makes me think of classic romcom movies, haha. im glad your first job went well!! OHHH DEAD BY DAYLIGHT i feel like i could get into it but im TERRIBLE at games hahaha. ive spent so much time getting good at monster hunter that i'm too afraid to start a new game at a rock bottom skill level lol. omg your social life is so busy, haha. GREAT VLOG!!! these are always so fun. you're making me want to do one... on top of the midyear freakout tag lol. so many videos to make!! can't wait to see your next vlog!!!! <3 <3 <3

VLOG! VLOG! VLOG! oh man new mexico is soooo beautiful. i never spent a lot of time in the cities when i was there, but i did camp out in the gila national forest and then spent some time in taos around the enchanted circle and went through white sands... and obvs spent some time in roswell (my trips through the southwest have been some of my favorite, athough it was mostly artsy and nature stuff so i kinda wish i could do more touristy museum stuff if i ever get to go back). OH MAN!! CONGRATS ON QUITTING YOUR JOB AND DOING EDITING AND WRITING!!! THAT'S SO FUCKING COOL!!! i don't know why but i thought you were in STEM, haha. oh man, i've always wanted to write--i used to be REALLY into fanfic but i just haven't had time or motivation the last couple of years to work on original stuff. IM ROOTING FOR YOU!!! omg trail misadventures, haha. ive ABSOLUTELY done that. when i climbed mt champlain in maine it was because of the same thing--missed the trailhead i was going to and then found a random parking spot and didn't even realize i was climbing champlain until we got back down, hahaha. YOO MASTER OF DJINN i want to read that after enjoying Ring Shout so much! oh noo! i hope connor's back has recovered by now. YIKES. THE FOLK ART MUSEUM LOOKS SO COOL!!! oh nooo here's where covid begins... im so sorry ): BACK TO THE OTHER VLOG SENDING LOVE I AM GLAD YOU HAVE RECOVERED FROM COVID!!!!!

oh noo covid!!! i'm so glad you seem to be feeling a little bit better! oh man i know you didnt like the historian but GOD IT SOUNDS SO COOL im so saaaaad. i feel like this could have been such an interesting book. what's funny is i just started "the terror" by dan simmons last night which is supposed to be a historical thriller/horror but it's over 700 pages, and about 175 pages in i can't decide whether i am having the same problems you describe with the historian. i wonder... if i end up liking it by the end, i wonder if i would vibe with the historian? or if i will think the terror is just TOO MUCH and come to hate it as much as you hate the historian . i totally get what you're saying about venus in the blind spot! i think part of the reason i liked it was because so many of them were "classics" id read before (lots of nostalgia factor or "ooh greatest hits" feelings, i think), but if you're interested in his longer works Uzumaki or Gyo are generally well-liked. i feel like i need to branch out more in reading horror manga myself tbh, because looking at my manga shelf i mostly comedy manga and an HP Lovecraft manga retelling. oh noo! i'm sorry you didn't like for the throne! i'm kind of bummed! i was thinking of picking up "for the wolf" but i dont know if it's worth it if the second book feels disappointing--i feel like i've been burned with duologies before and dont want a repeat of raybearer/redemptor. OH DUDE I TOTALLY AGREE ABOUT SEANAN MCGUIRE AND ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIPS. i had the EXACT same complaints with the romance in "into the drowning deep". she's so good at action and mayhem, but not romantic dynamics, i think. oh man, i've only heard good(?) things about know my name, but i don't know if i could do it. it's something i want to read, but it DEFINITELY sounds like something you have to be in the right mindset to read. OOH I ADDED THAT TO MY TBR AFTER THAT LAST VIDEO. can't wait to get fucked up by weird obscure german horror. 😭 OH NOOO i added fortuna sworn to my kindle... noooooooo... OH ALL'S WELL!! someday i'll finish this book, i just couldn't get past those first fifty pages because it was just TOO real. it sounds like the exact kind of book that could be a favorite of all time, but... not today. ooh another babel book! okay, okay, you've convinced me. i am DEFINITELY picking this up this fall. GREAT VIDEO AGAIN AND IM SO GLAD YOURE OUT OF YOUR READING SLUMP! i gotta say, i had a rough june/july for reading as well (lots of low ratings). maybe this summer was just... cursed? SENDING LOVE CANT WAIT FOR THE NEXT VIDEO! <3 i will continue moving through your backlog as the week goes on (:

omg i never did one of these this year, i might have to retroactively make one, haha. completely forgot! man youre making me want to reread middlegame with all of these videos. maybe ill put it on my 2023 reread tbr? ooh thats SUCH a good pitch for the senlin ascends series. youre SELLING me on this. ooh ive got the city of dusk on my shelf (i think we both have the adult fairyloot edition??) and i keep forgetting that i own it. maybe i'll pick it up in the fall? OOH BABEL!! i am very curious to see how this book turns out because i have a LOT of thoughts about dark academia in general. i've been thinking about making a video about it but want to wait until i read Babel in case i want to talk about that in whatever video i make on the subject, haha. OH MAN i read the ACOTAR series last month (long story) and i could not stop thinking about your house of sky and breath 8 sex scenes comment (from your original wrapup with it) when i was reading a court of silver flames. i had been counting the sex scenes to see how it compared because most of the rest of the acotar only had one to three in each book, but there were MORE THAN A DOZEN in a court of silver flames. SJM heard people calling her books fairy porn and was just like "you know what, fine" with her 2021/2022 releases. YESSS!!! excellent choices for 7 and 9, haha. jane lawrence was SUCH an amazing character, and i totally agree. it's rare to see such consistent characterization while still maintaining a sense of real growth and progression throughout the story. DELIGHTFUL. ooh number 13 is an attack, haha. YES VESPERTINE!! great video as always!! it's kind of funny working backwards through your videos because i know you did end up enjoying gideon the ninth but i stilled started to type "omg i hope you enjoy it!!!" before i realized you talked about it in a more recent video. 😅 i know it's jumping WAY backwards but i'm looking forward to your nonfiction tbr video!! i was JUST thinking today i need to look up more nonfictions since i dont have any more on my physical tbr this year.

yooooo here we go!!! i love these!!! youre making me excited for a closed and common orbit right off the bat, hahaha. okay now i HAVE to read senlin ascends and this series! ooh interesting about bad feminist. i studied a bunch of roxane gay's stuff for concentration/minor and her work definitely feels a little bit aged, even her newer stuff. OOH rest in peace, everything i never told you. i love that book i actually kind of agree? i dont know if i would have remembered it that much/enjoyed it as much if i hadn't read it for two different classes and DRILLED it into my brain lol. oh yikes i have juniper and thorn on my shelf I really hope i like it (crying emoji). i love what you said about once there were wolves and i TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE ENDING. so much. oh maaan i was already on the fence about seasonal fears and i think i'm probably going to give this one a miss--middlegame was so self contained! i dont know if it even NEEDED a sequel. yes yes yes! the death of jane Lawrence!!!!! so good. and the luminous dead! And the twisted ones!! BONGO!!! okay ngl i'm kind of intrigued by the honjin murders the more i think about it, haha. OH WOW i've never heard of the last one before and i am SOOO interested. GREAT VIDEO AS ALWAYS! i think "it's not you it's me" is probably a higher tier than "its not me its you" just because the lower tiers seem like youre less and less likely to recommend the books, and you might be MORE likely to recommend something from "its not you its me", if that makes sense? :D see you next video!!

OMG i have so many videos to catch up on!!! i can't wait to work my way through your backlog. belated welcome back!!! i'm sooo glad to see you're making videos again. :D i haven't heard of this readathon before--it sounds fun! OOOOH i am soooo interested in tripping arcadia! i can't wait to hear your thoughts! i am a little apprehensive about the sea of tranquility because i could not get into the glass hotel, but the premise sounds super intriguing. a dilemma. i've never heard of a forgery of roses before but it sounds so interesting??? haha i hope you enjoy the love hypothesis! it's one of the few contemporary romances that i really enjoyed, but tbh i think that's because it's 99% fanfiction tropes and writing. YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GIDEON THE NINTH!!!! god i hope you like it. tamsyn muir owns meeeeee. omg i'm obsessed with your 5d upside down chess reasoning for jawbone (also i cant WAIT to hear your thoughts--that one sounds like SO MUCH and i want to read it so bad, haha). AWESOME VIDEO AS ALWAYS!! i can't wait to keep going through your backlog from the last two months! sending love! <3 <3

Oh I love videos like this as I always get to know about books I might not know about I'm not organized enough to keep track of my reading to do something like this but so glad you and others are lol. Thanks so much for sharing. Just subscribed too #57. Peace love and happiness ~ Tracey

I watched this video in the bathroom of dad's and my hotel room at 12:30 am. (can't sleep he's snoring lol) as always a good video. omg 4/4?!?! really!! anyway...I was reminded by you that I'm listening to I'll Be Gone In The Dark! so for the next hour I continued listening. so interesting and scary. well it's now 2:04 and I think I'll try to get some sleep, wish me luck🤦‍♀️🥴 lulmom
