I agree, we should all read BLOB together 💗 So many great sounding books coming out next year! I'm looking forward to We Live Here Now by Sarah Pinborough,
I'm so excited for Blob, I have it pre-held at the library for when it comes out. I also immediately thought of The Haar just from the title alone so I'm glad I'm not alone there lol!
Ali you are so funny! The way you described Grady Hendrix endings with the arm gesture made me CRACK UP!!😂 Also agreed about Midnight Library, hate that book baddd but The Rainfall Market sounds so good, I hope I enjoy it too!❤
This is the first time I've watched you and now you're my favorite BookTuber. 💗📚 My TBR list is super full of your recommendations and I think you are entertaining as hell. Can't wait to see all your videos in 2025! 😃👏 🎉
A few that are on my radar and not mentioned here - Week 1: Wake Up and Open Your Eyes by Clay McLeod Chapman Four Ruined Realms by Mai Cortland Week 2: Death of the Author by Nnedi Okorafor We Lived on the Horizon by Erika Swyler Week 4: We Are Watching by Alison Gaylin Tell Me What You Did by Carter Wilson
I recently discovered your channel and I. Am. Obsessed! 🤩 Was wondering if you are a dog or cat person? And also, I loved the apartment search video, could we by any chance get a new house tour now that you’re slowly getting settled in? 🥺🫣 Keep up the good work ✨ In the meantime I will keep myself busy rewatching your old uploads 🍿❤️
Aw thank you! I love both dogs and cats lol my dream is to get a puppy and a kitten at the same time and raise them like siblings hahaha I have some DIYs I want to do this year so I think I’ll show off my space then! So embarrassing lol I still have some boxes laying around 😅
so many of these sound great. maybe this is the year I turn part android - with just a hint of human emotions - then I can speed read all the books, comprehend them and //feel// them. (fingers crossed) cos, manalive crawfishpie there's a lot of effing books out there.
Ooooh! Strange Pictures and We Do Not Part sound intriguing! Will keep my eye on them. (Finished Thirteen Ways to Kill Lullabelle Rock last night. Another great rec! 👍)
i read When We Lost Our Heads by Heather O’neill this year and i can confirm her writing is funny and bingeable. i’ll defs be putting a library hold on The Capital of Dreams
I love watching other people do it but lmao I tried it once when I was twelve thinking I’d be so naturally good at it….. after four hours I still could not move forward without a push 🤣
Very excited for out of the woods! And we could be rats lol I loveee sister stories Other releases im anticipating - I already preordered beg borrow or steal by Sarah Adams which comes out on January 7. I read the arc already and ate it up!
Great recs! Other January 2025 recs: - How To Sleep At Night by Elizabeth Harris - All the Water In the World by Eiren Caffall Like you, I'm also looking forward to Water Moon, Beautiful Ugly, and The Crash. P.S. If you like books about getting over a break up, you should check out Charming Is Falling Apart by Angela Terry.
Thanks! In this video I’m using the Rode VideoMic GO II, but in a couple other videos when you see me holding that fluffy mic, it’s the Rode Wireless GO II Single Channel mic
Double Double Toil and Trouble!! nobody talks about this genius film! it is the reason i am slightly scared of mirrors. i watched in several Halloweens back and it totally holds up in a terrible film kind of way.

Let me know how you like it, I’ve never read anything by her before!

So glad to see you’re back
I recently discovered your channel and I. Am. Obsessed! 🤩
Was wondering if you are a dog or cat person? And also, I loved the apartment search video, could we by any chance get a new house tour now that you’re slowly getting settled in? 🥺🫣

Great video, I can’t wait for onyx storm 🥰
Let me know how you rank the series when you read it!
The Capital of Dreams sounds really unique. I'm adding it to my list.
✅
so many of these sound great. maybe this is the year I turn part android - with just a hint of human emotions - then I can speed read all the books, comprehend them and //feel// them. (fingers crossed) cos, manalive crawfishpie there's a lot of effing books out there.
If you get that procedure done hit me up because I need this so bad 😂
Ooooh! Strange Pictures and We Do Not Part sound intriguing! Will keep my eye on them. (Finished Thirteen Ways to Kill Lullabelle Rock last night. Another great rec! 👍)
Yay I’m glad you liked it!!
The blob sounds hilarious
I CANNOT WAIT
i read When We Lost Our Heads by Heather O’neill this year and i can confirm her writing is funny and bingeable. i’ll defs be putting a library hold on The Capital of Dreams
I didn’t realize that was the same author!
I loved When We Lost Our Heads - just added the Capital of Dreams to my TBR.
Ice-skating is so cool
I love watching other people do it but lmao I tried it once when I was twelve thinking I’d be so naturally good at it….. after four hours I still could not move forward without a push 🤣
@@AliDoisRead 😆
Happy new year ❤
Happy new year!
I loved Beautiful Ugly! I got an early release from BOTM! I’m looking forward to Last Room On The Left!!
Omg that’s so exciting! I can’t wait to read it 🤩
Also what the heck last room sounds so cool and creepy, idk how i missed it!!!
I'm so excited for lightfall
Hope we both love it!
Very excited for out of the woods! And we could be rats lol I loveee sister stories
Other releases im anticipating - I already preordered beg borrow or steal by Sarah Adams which comes out on January 7. I read the arc already and ate it up!
I was going to include that one here! But then I realized it was the third book in a series lol but now I want to get to them this year for sure
Given that Han Kang wrote The Vegetarian, I could see We Do Not Part leaning horror!
I realized that as I was editing the cover into the video, I’m even more excited now! Never read the vegetarian but I’ve heard some things 👀
Great recs! Other January 2025 recs:
- How To Sleep At Night by Elizabeth Harris
- All the Water In the World by Eiren Caffall
Like you, I'm also looking forward to Water Moon, Beautiful Ugly, and The Crash.
P.S. If you like books about getting over a break up, you should check out Charming Is Falling Apart by Angela Terry.
That All the Water cover is so cool 😲
Added to tbr !
Oh, I can’t WAIT for all the water in the world. Such an amazing premise!
@@shannonkatereadsstuff I thought so too!!
@@AliDoisRead right!!
I’m currently reading Blob - it’s so weird, but very good. I’m only 2 chapters in.
I’m also reading Bat Eater and it’s so intense.
Omg you lucky duck getting these cool weird arcs! I can’t wait for both!
I love portal fantasy
I enjoyed dan hanks lady anthropologist adventure debut
Aww that sounds fun!
Ali! I really enjoy your videos! Which microphone do you use when your voice gets tired?
Thanks! In this video I’m using the Rode VideoMic GO II, but in a couple other videos when you see me holding that fluffy mic, it’s the Rode Wireless GO II Single Channel mic
@@AliDoisRead thank you queen!!
Visions of darkness sounds so similar to a twenty one pilots fan fiction I wrote like six years ago
LOL!!! This made me so happy 😂
love all these videos now you're back, but don't overdo it and burn out again!
Don’t worry! This is just an end of year extravaganza 🎉 I’ll be back to regular (aka slower lol) uploading next week 😆
Double Double Toil and Trouble!! nobody talks about this genius film! it is the reason i am slightly scared of mirrors. i watched in several Halloweens back and it totally holds up in a terrible film kind of way.
My brother and I loved it so much, we’d go around yelling “The MOOOOOONstone” whenever it got too quiet 😂
Don't do the alice Feeney I got a copy from botm and was so disappointed by the time I got to the end
oh noooo! I fear I must learn this lesson the hard way 😂
@AliDoisRead hahah I get that. I was just so disappointed because I love Alice Feeney but this book was just something else
