🦊
🦊 hang in there, baby girl! I love you!
Welcome back!!🥰 I’m Sending you all the positive vibes for October and it will be your month!💪🏻 hang in there!❤️ Ps:🦊
I am so sorry you and Christian has such a rough month... I was genuinely praying for you two as I didn't know what was going on. I love and miss you guys! 💕I appreciate you showing up in front of the camera with zero fucks. 😎 The Kerri Maniscalso series- are they scary? Three Dark Crowns was a DNF for me a few years ago. Though I wonder if I would like it now. 🤔 Can't wait to know your thoughts! I'm currently reading Heartless Hunter (UK- The Crimson Moth) by Kristen Ciccarelli.
So happy to see you back ❤ I hope October is a better month for you and so sorri for your loss 😢. How are you doing? Xxx
🦊 Hopefully October will be bring you joy ❤❤
Thank you so much, today is a little bit of a struggle again, but I've deep cleaned the house and I'm feeling better! I hope your month is off to a nice start!
🦊 I'm sorry your September sucked! Hoping for a better October! It's the best month in my opinion
October is BAE! How is your month going? I'm sorry I've been MIA. So much to chat with you about! I'm praying Taylor blesses us with Rep TV on the 13th. I would cry tears of joy.
@@ragansreads oh I am just seeing this! I know it is past the 13th but I hope it is coming soon!
🦊
Thanks for watching!
so glad to see your face! I'm sorry september was such a bummer. I just started A Discovery of Witches last weekend and am liking it so far! Definitely a unique writing style that took some getting used to but I am intruiged. Hoping you can find some nice escapism through reading this month. <3
Thank you, Emily! ❤️ Do you think it's wrong if I just start the TV show first? Kinda in the mood to watch it lol. I'm glad you are liking the book so far! Gives me hope it will be the escapism I'm craving
🦊
Thanks for hanging out with me in this messy video
I hope October is a better month overall and that these books help you to relieve some stress! I need to reread Kingdom of the Wicked so I can actually move on with the series. Sending all the good vibes your way✨ happy reading🫶🏼
Thank you very much 🙏🏻❤️ I would love to reread KOW series. Maybe that's actually the best idea for this month's tbr. I loved the books and the characters and would be a stress reliever for sure. I think I may do that! Love you so much
Yes, please read JLA. Love the series. You need to read A Shadow in the Ember first. A Light in the Flame is book 2 of the Flesh and Fire series. I am so sorry to hear about your loss and difficult September. Wishing you and your family the best.
omg. thank you for telling me that! hahahahh I didn't know I had the 2nd one! Okay, i'll try to hunt down a copy of A Shadow in the Ember! Thank you so much for your kind message. Means a lot ❤️
🦊 oooh a lot of those sound really good! I also need to read the rest of the Belladonna series, because book one was so good 😩 I’m sorry that last month was so hard for you, I hope this month treats you better! I’ll be moving soon and will Be reunited with my books later this month and I’m so excited because I miss them dearly 😭 my new house has the perfect place to build a reading nook so I cannot wait to put that together! Oh guess what! I started ACOTAR for the first time 🥳 I’ve never read SJM so I’m hoping I’ll love it 😆
I definitely want to start Foxglove. I'm hoping I can find a rundown of book 1 online because I don't remember most of what happened! I'm so excited for you and your move! EEK a reading nook!! I want to see photos once you've set up everything! And GIRL YOU ARE READING ACOTAR FINALLY!!!! AHHHHH I'm here for you. Please spill all your thoughts to me.
Screw September - Hoping October is easy breezy for you and you can just chill and read and fill your cup x
Screw September is just a good motto. I'm going to keep repeating this to myself. 👻 thank you so much. 🥰How are you doing?
@@ragansreads eh September stomped my balls too but so far October has been better thankfully
I don’t have any that I’m subscribed too because I just can’t afford it right now, but I want to at some point! I have purchased from Unplugged Book Box and Beacon Bookbox, Faecrate, and then I’ve been gifted Owl Crate! I’m hoping I can subscribe at some point. 📦
Okay hear me out. This is giving ACOTAR without the FMC being whiney and annoying. I honestly think this is my favorite romantasy series of all time currently. Slade is my absolute favorite.
@@deftonenations303 THIS COMMENT JUST MADE MY WEEK!!!! I’m going to start reading Gold soon. I have been saving it for when I need a good self-care book and this is it 🤩
👠 fun video. Your Knoops looks amazing! I almost made some tonight!
You should make it! Delicious
📦 That’s a beautiful book! I love the edges!
It’s very beautiful!
👻 thank you for sharing early autumn-love-vibes and easing the dread for dark times ahead 👻
I subscribe to the Bookish Box and Illumicrate. 😊
Happy Early Birthday, Ragan!! You are so precious and I hope you feel so loved and cherished this month. ✨️🧁🩷📖🎈Girl, when I get stressed, my reading suffers. It's so challenging to dive into a book when my head is full. I am trying to work on this because I hate feeling like I wasted time by not reading! It's so lame. I made my little September tbr this month and have four books I wanna get through. 🤞🏼Also? It's so sick that he has a signed deck! Would love to how you feel about To Flame A Wild Flower... 🥹 give us all your thoughts!!
Happy early Birthday!🥳💜 Thank you for blessing us with videos. Your light is infectious and I’m so happy to get your notifications☺️ wishing you luck with this tbr but also hope you enjoy your birthday month doing what brings you joy ✨💖
I love every video you put out like it just is such a good vibe always makes me wanna sit with my book and drink my coffee
This is literally the nicest compliment! That is always the vibe I want to give you. I'm so so so glad you enjoy these videos! ❤️
❤❤❤❤
Good luck reading this month. What season are you up to with got I should re watch it or vikikgs I love love love that season
We are almost through with rewatching Season 3. SUCH a good season. I need to watch Vikings. It's been on my watch list since it came out. Have you read A Fate Inked in Blood by Danielle L. Jensen? Nordic vibes all the way!
@@ragansreads yes I loved that book so much, trying to convince my husband to name our next baby bjorn 🤣
@ragansreads yes got is a good one, although I love house of the dragon more
@@melann6791 I do too!
@@melann6791 omg that would be epic
Happy Birthday month, it’s also mine as well. I read Discovery of Witches years ago, but I enjoyed it. I am really intrigued about the Outlander book club thing you’re doing. It’s my favorite series of all time!!
Yay! Happy birthday! Oh my gosh I am so excited that you're interested in the Outlander book club!!! I'll share an announcement video this month!
The perfect cozy reading day 🩷
@@sheisbookedandbusy it was!😄
You have been SPOILING us with videos this week!!! I keep checking UA-cam & am SAT when I see you pop up! AAAAAAANNDDDD imagine my squeal of joy when I saw there was a new Ragan video AND it was a TBR 🤯🤯 Girl, I'm so scared for Malice...send help! 🤣
Oh my gosh you make my day! I've had a lot of fun editing this month. I think I put out 10 videos in August. Most I've ever done in a row! lol I want to read Malice! I hear great things about that series and author. I may dive in with you....
Happy Birthday month & Happy Reading! 🧡
Thank you!!☺️
I only read the first book in A Discovery of Witches. I think it starts in current day London but time travel gets involved.
oh! I didn't realize that! Thanks!
Rhaenyra jumping up and grabbing everything you pull out of the box 🤗
😅😂
Don't have any book box's I find them quite expensive. I do have Ku but that it is for me. I already feel very overwhelmed of what I need to read
I love KU right now. I’ve read my favorite books of the year on it and I’d like to eventually buy them for my shelf. Canceling this box is worth it!
@ragansreads I agree Ku Is great. Imagine all the money you'll save to spend on other books hehehe
@@ragansreads you should do a video of kindle unlimited books you recommend, always looking for suggestions
🥰🥳 ooooh I’d love that! Okay I’ll plan for it
Yep the fairyloot book choices were just not great, as pretty as they are, the contents matter too
Exactly. A beautiful book isn’t worth keeping on my shelf if the story doesn’t bring me joy.
Squirty cream 😬 that sounds dirty AF - lol no it’s whipped cream
Right?! Everyone calls it that here 😅😂
📦Omg I subscribe to TOO many book boxes...Fairyloot Adult, YA, & Romantasy, Illumicrate Adult & YA, Afterlight, Owlcrate YA, Page & Wick, plus pre-order from The Bookish Shop. 🤦🏻♀😬This book sounds good! I skipped this month but now I'm kind of regretting...
omg that is AWESOME!!!! Okay i am looking up Page and Wick now and i didn't know it is UK based! EEK! I may need to sign up.....
I'm excited for this book & loved the notepad that was included to keep me focused (or try to) throughout my daily tasks. I am actually contemplating canceling the FL Romantasy box because I feel as though I'd rather keep the Adult & YA boxes. The FOMO keeps me hostage so its really tough to pull the plug 😆
@@shedreamsinwords THE FOMO!!! This is the biggest reason I’ve had this box for four years. When I’ve used my skips in the past, I missed books I really wanted like the Ballad of Never After. So always held onto it. But I just feel that I can use this money to buy the books I really want to read on my TBR, which are all independently published.
Also have used the notepad for two days now. It’s great and cute!
@@ragansreads I agree with buying indie published books! It sucks that FL always has such great customizations because that’s how they keep me 😭 I’m happy to hear the notepad has been useful! I love making lists to check off everyday 🥰
@@shedreamsinwords their reverse dust-jackets are prime
This box has a ton of fun bookish merch, but I totally could see how having it for a while is just too much. I was kind of expecting the mirror not to work 🤭 Thanks for bringing us along for your unboxing!!
I agree! This was a nice box of goodies! Yeah that mirror! LOL Do you subscribe to a book box? Thanks for watching!
@@ragansreads not at the moment, but I do subscribe to the cloth & paper monthly subscription box; it’s a full of beautiful stationary & paper goods! Last month I used some of the paper inserts to make some bookmarks 🫶 hope you have a wonderful weekend!
👠 excited to hear more about that book! It sounds promising
It does but something has happened in it and I’m like… this is copying another book. Sooo hopefully there is a twist coming
@@ragansreads danggg hopefully it switches up. But also I hate love triangles sooo..
@@britterapple I think this is an ACOTAR situation
@@ragansreads gotcha!
This was a great vlog and i enjoyed watching and your puppy was so cute. The reading sprint with Lyndsay was so much fun.🤍👠
Thank you for sprinting with us! I loved chatting with you and Lyndsay! Have you read much this week since? And thank you for your kind words; I'm so glad you enjoyed this vlog! 🤗
@@ragansreads I got to chapter 11 in summer romance but decided to dnf since I didn't like how the book was going. I decided that I'm going to start reading a new book.
@@jia.noelle dnf'ing is self care 👏 I hope your next one is great!
@@ragansreads that is so true and thank you I hope my next read is a great too. ❤️
I am loving seeing all your vlogs come up this summer.👠
@@_lorie I’m so glad you like them! It’s a new adventure and I’m having fun with vlogs right now!
love all the fall and halloween vibes !!
Me too! I’m not ready for summer to end but at the same time I want cozy fall vibes
👻 Love the video!! 1. The fact that it was August 10 and you were both wearing sweatshirts! 2. Christian - way to represent with that Dolly hoodie!🩷🦋🇺🇸 3. Your dad and I will do neutral fall decor for Halloween (mostly black and white) with pops of orange that transition into orange and mostly brown for Thanksgiving. 4. I’m wanting to decorate for fall but the heat index today was 100. Sort of kills the vibe. 5. If you were in America, I would treat you to the new Nondairy Iced Apple Crisp Cream Chai Latte with cold foam and extra cinnamon sprinkled on top!! OMG!! AMAZING!!
I loved this vlog!!!! 😊 I grew up with The Abba Generation. Brings me back. So glad you got to see Mamma Mia. Those dresses could make me cryyyyy. I am in love. They are so your colors!
I'm such a fan of ABBA now! I used to say I didn't like their music. Lol. I LOVE the dresses!!!!! Thank you! The pops of color make me so happy!
