Sharing my love of books and disability representation.
Hi everyone! My name is Rochelle (she/her). I live in Colorado with my fiancé and our 3 cats and dog. I love all things cozy especially if it involves a good book and a cup of tea. I'm a big fan of horror and love to play survival crafting, farming sims, or RPG games. In my free time, you can find me on Instagram where I try my best to advocate for disabilities and help bring more representation for the limb difference community.
I hope that my videos and channel helps you to relax, breathe, and also maybe learn a little about the limb different community.
New videos will be posted every week

🏰 February TBR Game 🏰 Defend The TBR | Episode 2
📚 Let the book games continue! 📚
In this 2nd episode of Defend The TBR, I'm excited to share my February TBR picks with you. For those who are new, this is a monthly series where I randomly choose my reads using a TBR game that I created. I'll be playing a board game-style TBR game, where I'll be rolling dice and moving around the board to determine which books I'll be reading this month. It's a great way to mix things up and add some excitement to my reading routine. Whether you're a fellow booktuber or just a book enthusiast, I hope you'll find some inspiration for your own TBR games and reading challenges. So, sit back, relax, and let's get started on this bookish adventure together! 📚
What are your thoughts on this TBR board game so far?
If you're new to the series and would like to learn the rules, I go over them in my first video:

Can you share the link of anxious girl book please
Ahahah Charles' narration was fantastic! He did such a great job ^^ Curious to hear your thoughts about Parable of the Sower!
Thank you! He really wants to do voice acting and this lit a fire in him to do some auditions.🥰 I'm reading Parable of the Sower right now and it's wild. The book takes place in 2024-205 and wow....
@@goodmornindreamer Oh that's so cool! Keep me posted on how it goes. I did some audiobook recording at some point (school books for dyslexic kids, so didn't really require voice acting ^^') and I loved it. Best of luck to him! Ahah, yes, I read it last year and it was... odd ^^'
I don't DNF books, I TBF (T)o (B)e (F)inished) Books
I wish I could. But sometimes when a book still doesn't peak my interest by page 100 and I'm risking a reading slump, it's for the best to DNF for me
this is such a fun and creative way to choose a monthly tbr! can’t wait to hear what you think of legendborn! i’ve heard such great things 💖🫶🏼
Thank you so much for watching 🥰 I can't wait to get Legendborn and finally read it!
This is such a great TBR for February bestie. I am completely obsessed with the pet pick prompt. Always love to see those! 💕💕
Thanks bestie! 💕💕 I'm so excited to read these books! And same pet picks are so chaotic, but so much fun!🥰
i love how both your cats really wanted you to read legendborn!! also your fiancé did such an amazing job with the animation and storytelling!!
They were on a mission to pick the right books for Black History Month 💕 Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed my fiancé's additions! He had a lot of fun with his part
AHH another fun round of TBR Game 🤩 I love the recap from last month. Will you have some graphics to show what was added up on the screen too? I'm a visual person but no worries either way 🫣 Just thought it'll be a cool way to do it. Also is your fiancé a VA? Because it was amazing. I love the way this was added! I really enjoyed it 😂 Another pet pick!! My favorite is seeing what they go for. Can't wait to see what you think of Parable of the Sower. I'm excited to read Legendborn too -- I recently added it, and heard it's an amazing YA Fantasy. I've heard mixed things about it! Lots of mixed pick thing month. 🥰
Thank you so much for watching and I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I can definitely add some visual on the screen. Unfortunately, the program my fiancé was using didn't have that, but it should be easy for me to edit in ☺ My fiancé isn't a VA but he really wants to do some of this soon. So reading comments about how well he did makes him so happy 🥰 They really went for some good picks! But also so happy that they picked such good books for Black History Month 💕
Just found your channel. Love the game! I started with Kindred by Octavia E. Butler, as well, then read a few more by her, including Parable of a Sower. She is such a fantastic author. I will also be reading Legendborn this month. I'm excited to see what everyone loves about it. I hope we both enjoy it. I look forward to more videos.
Welcome in and thank you so much for watching! 🥰 I'm so glad that you enjoyed the game! Octavia E. Butler is amazing and how she wrote about everything in the "future" and just hit the nail on the head is wild. I hope so too! I'm currently reading Parable of the Sower and want to read Legendborn after
Your fiancé did an amazing job! He has an amazing voice for fantasy stories 🐉
Aww thank you so much! That means so much to him! He really wants to do voice acting one day 🥰
So many books!!! I am living vicariously through you right now as I am on a low buy year as well! I kept my book subscription service so I can still get one book a month hehe 😂
🤣 totally understand. If it wasn’t for the sales, holidays, and gift cards, I wouldn’t have gone as wild for this book haul. I’ll be easing towards a low but year now aside from purchasing banned books and occasionally supporting local book stores I think the book subscription was the perfect thing to keep 💕
What are your thoughts with the little animation for Defend the TBR? 👀
Wow the animation looks so professional! Also your finance was so into it; it was so fun to see, and I love how supportive he is!
This game is sooo fun! If you decide to sell it one day I could see it building a cult following among book lovers! Also, Legendborn and Parable of the Sower sound super interesting! I‘ll check them out! ❤
Oh thank you! I can’t remember what the “game” is called, but it’s one that is for D&D players for their campaigns My fiancé is very supportive 🥰 and also loves doing voice acting whenever he can
😳🥰 oh wow thank you for the extremely kind compliment! If you end up reading either of these books I’d love to hear your thoughts as well 🥰
Black holes of book mass form when massive amounts of books collapse due their sheer volume. After a black hole has formed, it can grow by absorbing mass from its surroundings. Supermassive black holes of millions of books may form by absorbing books, pets and book owners. There is consensus that supermassive black holes exist because of people's obsession with owning books.
🤣😅
This book haul was epic!!! And your kitty is the cutest video bomber!! 🐈 What is her/his name? I'm super intrigued by Spells for Forgetting, and Ordinary! Also yes for the video organizing your library/scanning all the books! (and maybe a highest/lowest rated books challenge too?) 👀✨ can't wait to hear your thoughts on all these reads! 📚
Thank you so much! If it was a Siamese looking cat, then it was Finn. I think our whiteish kitty might've showed up as well and that was Kiko. Ooo that could be a fun challenge as well! Thank you for the suggestion 💕
NOW THIS A BOOK HAUL!!!
😍📚
this is EXACTLY what i needed now that i am on a no-buy (*cough cough* let's make that LOW-buy maybe hahaha) this is going to keep my company while i edit so thank you for this GINORMOUS haul video, you truly are spoiling us!!
🤣 low-buying might be better than no-buying. Sorry for this video pressuring you in any way 😂
An hour long video of a book haul?? 🤩 Loving it. I saw so many good sale on bookoutlet but I had to hold myself back since I'm trying to do a lowbuy in 2025. I am super jealous of all your special editions.
Thank you so much for watching 🥰 I'm definitely going to try my hardest to start doing a low-buy for the rest of the year. My only exceptions will be banned books or books to continue a series IF I'm actually reading it
Your journal looks so good!! The video of the proposal was so cute despite the wall being in the way lol. It makes it even cuter imo I think 2025 i will try to do more of a memory/life journal too. I love that so much
Aww thank you!! 🥰 I'm so glad he got my to record it Highly recommend! I already love getting to flip back in my journal and see everything that happened in 2024
This is one of my favorite reading vlogs because it really challenges people to read out of their comfort zone 🥰 Especially when the spinners put a number way out of the comfort zone!! The hour timer versus pages is definitely a lot smarter than what I did (up to 420 pages) because... then I just spent my whole day reading instead of editing or doing anything else. PS, all your reading spots are SO cozy. And your kitties joining you. AHH, the most comforting and cute thing ever!! 😍 I heard One Dark Window's second book is better and I think I might like it better because there's romance 😂 Love that you're listening to your reading moods because honestly, if I'm not into it, I will probably not end up rating it a lot lower 😅 But yes, the spinners and whatnot really will push you to read! Any video is great 🥰
This was my first time actually trying to do one of these and I definitely agree! This really helped challenge me and gently force me to get out of my reading slump. I definitely prefer doing hours vs page numbers, since I know that focusing on how many pages I read would've made it harder for me to actually pay attention to what I was reading. Thank you! I'm still working on getting my office to feel 100% right so this means so much to me! 🥰 Oooo I'm definitely curious and can't wait to check out the 2nd one.👀
Fun game these are my favorite type of videos. Nuggy is so precious.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed it 🥰
What scanner did you get? I'm looking into getting one.
My fiancé got me the Tera Wireless 1D Laser Barcode Scanner
Oh my, what a huge haul 😂😂😂 So sweet of Charles to do a whole book advent calendar 💛
🤣 it really is! I judged myself on the book haul when I watched your no buy video 🤣 It was such a nice surprise 🥰 then the scanner for my birthday made me excited to go through all the books
@@goodmornindreamer ahaha nooo, please, don't judge yourself, that's really not what I want my video to trigger ^^'
@@Curious-Cat 🤣 i know, but I couldn't help laughing at the timing
I have 2 of Andrew Joseph White's book including Hell Followed With Us! I wanna read some of Chloe Liese I hear she has a lot of mental health and disability rep I need to get to the shinning this year 😂
That’s what I’ve heard with Chloe Liese as well. She wasn’t on my radar until I found that out and now I want to read all the books in the series 😍
OH MY WORD AN HOUR LONG BOOK HAUL! I'm so happy you finally have your hands on Ranger's Apprentice and I hope you LOVE it. But it also looks like you have plenty of books that you'll be needing to get to 😂😂
I just had too many books to talk about 🤣 I’ll let you know as soon as I read it!! Leaving it up to my monthly TBR game to help me decide with all these books now 😅
OMG wait I didn't see your partner gave you a bookish Advent calendar too!! Ahh so excited to watch this
He did!! It wasn’t for the entire month but was still so much fun 🥰 Thank you for all the support 💕✨
The way my jaw dropped when I saw this was an hour+ video LOL. YESSS clytemnestra and atalanta mentioned!! I am hoping to see your thoughts on these soon, but you've got a lot to get through girl!
haha there was no way I could cut it down with giving a brief summary of each book. It was almost 2 hours long and I might've lost my voice the next day 😅🤣 I'm soooo excited to read them! They moved higher in my list after hearing you talk about them! Plus they feel like perfect timing with the mood the US has put me in lately 🤐
Don't worry about the spiders in Cackle. There is one super sweet spider character 😊
🥰perfect! i'm all here for a sweet spider character!
Wow what a book haul! That’s a crazy amount of books lol. But I hope you love them all! Also the Trial of the Sun Queen series has 4 books out now. I highly recommend the series. It’s so good.
haha yeah definitely won't be doing anything like this again soon. but sales and gift cards were happening at the perfect time. I'm so glad to hear you liked the series and thanks for the heads up on the 4th book too!! 💕💕
@ LOL yeah those sales get us every time. And no problem!
They really do 🤣 bookoutlet is my biggest weakness
Wow this was such a massive bookhaul!!! I am so impressed with all the books you got! And I hope you love the books you picked out for your birthday! 💕💕
🤣the only massive bookhaul that I'll ever have unless sales and timing is perfect. I'm so excited to read them. Thank you again bestie 🥰💕💕
Barnes and Noble and Amazon seemed to have a dual 50% off sale for some stuff. I ended up with a few. 🙂 - Playground by Richard Powers - A Short Walk Through a Wide World by Douglas Westerbeke - The Dallergut Dream Department Store by Miye Lee - I Cheerfully Refuse by Leif Enger
I LOVE when there are a bunch of sales happening at the same time. Especially when a book I have my eye on is out of stock 😂 I'd love to hear your thoughts on The Dallergut Dream Department Store by Miye Lee when you get to it. I also have this one on my list as well
Did you shop at any book sales? What books did you get? 👀
Congratulations for being a new home owner! As a fellow new home owner I can relate to the highs and lows!! Your house looks so good!!! Great job setting it up so quickly!!! And your pets are adorable! Although it’s a hard time in the US right now I hope you’ll still be able to make lovely memories in your new place!
Thank you! We're absolutely in LOVE with our new home and all the pets have gotten very comfortable finding a new favorite place in the house 🥰 And the same to you as well 💕things aren't easy at all right now, but it's nice to connect with others in these online spaces
Loved this vlog 💗
thank you so much for watching 🥰
such a fun challenge!! i definitely need to do something like this because i have been slackinggg with my reading goal!
you should! this helped get me out of my reading slump
ooft you're better than me, i feel like if i spun and landed on 4 hours, "oh no my camera turned off!! let me try again!! :D" hahaha, but so interesting to hear your thoughts on One Dark Window, I have put off reading it for so long because it is SO hyped up, so thank you for tempering my expectations! Now when I read it I can go in without too high hopes!
🤣🤣 my reading slump told me that I needed to commit to the challenge I'll be curious to hear your thoughts when you do end up reading it!
Wow- great video! Thank you!!!
thanks so much for watching!
I love this challenge so much!! I need to try this. I need to get to one dark window but I feel like it’s so hit or miss with people. I also remember really loving rock paper scissors! Your hair in the clip with the purple shirt 😍😍😍 looks so stunning
Yes! Please do it! It was so much fun and a great way to focus and read It really is. I'm not sure if my fantasy slump had something to do with how much I enjoyed it Aww thank you bestie 🥰I did some overnight curls
I loved hearing your thoughts on both of these! One Dark Window is still on my TBR but I really enjoyed Rock Paper Scissors
I'm definitely curious to hear your thoughts on One Dark Window. Not sure if my fantasy slump messed with how much I enjoyed it or not
I love these number challenges. I always end up endlessly scrolling instead of reading so this would be helpful 💯 LOL not 4 hours and 1 hour being given to you on the same day 🤣 But I neeeed your thoughts on RPS!! LOL
🤣 it's a "great" way to force you to read hahaha the number generator really came at me with those!! I'll be doing a wrap up soon and will definitely let you know!!!
That was fun! Sorry to hear that fantasy isn't really working for you at the moment though :(
it's okay. i think fantasy would be okay, but it needs to have a more specific them for me right now
You're so amazing! And your shelves are looking NICEEE. I have loved connecting with you and watching your videos this year. I totally agree with your advice to anyone wanting to start booktube, it's exactly how I felt when I started too.
🥰💕 thank you so much! it's so funny how that works. just starting is always the hard part
💜
thank you for watching 💕
I need to do this
you definitely should!!
agreed i didn’t love one dark window either!!
I don’t know what it was but it just didn’t hit for me. I’ll still read the next one because I need to know what happened
your voice is literally so soothing i could fall asleep to it in the best way
Awww thank you! 🥰🤣 don’t worry I totally understand what you meant! I’ve been told this a lot and it’s a huge compliment 💕
Is anyone else currently in a reading slump? What did you do to get out of it?
Omg yes bestie!!! Sending you all the good vibes to hit 100 books this year. I know you will do it. Ugh I would also love to reread out on a limb. I think about that book so often, it’s probably my favourite romance! I can’t wait for you to read IT, it is such a classic and doesn’t feel as daunting as it looks! This is such a great tag bestie!! 💕💕
thank you bestie! I'm really hoping that I can do it 🥰 Same! It was just so good and gave me all the emotions. Ooo that makes me feet better about reading IT. I've been so intimidated Thanks for watching bestie 💕✨
I neeedd to see how we are going to get We Used to Live Here to the screen 👀 There were so many details in the book that need to be in the movie to get the story across I feel. yess less arc requests is honestly the best LOL I love how easy it is to make connections on booktube. It is the best community 💖
Right?! I'm so anxious to see how it turns out!! I'm going to hope for physical ARCs lol but definitely want to cool down on the netgalley requests 😅 booktube is amazing! I love the book community so much 🥰
