Sad. I still love the books but honestly don't blame Christine for not wanting to talk about those books. A certain someone ruined it for a lot of people. Does she not talk about it for the same reason most of us don't? I will forever love the books and in this case separate the art from the author. I do not support the author and their views at all, just making it clear.
Heather Gonzalez the series was never my vibe. it does break my heart, however, that this situation ruined the series for so many who grew up with it. me, i grew up with twilight and percy jackson, as well as other book series like the lunar chronicles and shatter me, so i understand how heart shattering it could be to have this huge piece of you get corrupted by the author’s wrongful views. i wish it wasn’t this way, and i’m glad people like christine are acknowledging (however slightly) that the author shouldn’t be supported when they have such harmful ideologies. transphobia is wrong, and this is a wonderful case scenario of separating the art from the artist 💛
Heather Gonzalez you can separate the art from the author, but you can’t separate the money from her wallet. Any endorsement of HP can further spur sales that support the transphobic author.
@@suhani2022 JKR has been increasingly transphobic online the past several years and in the past few months especially she’s been spewing really hurtful ideology. Since JKR is still getting money from all Harry Potter books/movies/etc, a bunch of people have divorced themselves from her and the series in support of trans people.
It’s freaking crazy how when I first fell in love with reading, I was obsessed with finishing books as fast as possible for no particular reason. All the while not being aware of the existence of BookTube for like 3 years (ik like wth was I doing without people like Christine?! 😭). Now I finish books as fast I can, because I can’t help but be overly excited to watch her booktalks 😂 Anyway...back to the video! 🤗
THAT WAS SUCH AN INTENSE CHALLENGE! All the falling, screaming, and yelling was hilarious to watch. Loved the video, Christine! Also: I’m so excited for “Better Together!” June can’t come fast enough!

“A book where the main character wears glasses” does The Blood of Olympus count? Jason’s a main character, he wears glasses and he’s not written by you know who
Fox in the plot, hmm do you have The Little Prince in your shelf? I laughed when you did the narrow font prompt. I think it was narrow front cover though. Love you Christine! Plus the bonus one was about having 3 or more prompts in one book not an anthology. It could've been Throne of Glass, Outlander or Breaking Dawn! 😂
This was so intense I forgot about my period cramps for 14 minutes god bless 🙌 now to binge your other stuff... 👌 Hope you're doing okay with everything that's going on atm sending *huuugs* from across the pond ❤
when in the purple shelf she has a book 9 letters in top of a book where a main character wears glasses in top of a book where cybercrime is a plot point in top of a appolo
I can’t wait for it to be June !!! I already requested at my library!! And my good friend is the one who approves purchases for my county soooooo this one is in the bag ! 😂😂😂
Thank you for this video!!!!!! You did GREAT! And I’m SOOO EXCITED FOR BETTER TOGETHER!!! (Also... I too was spoiled for The Burning Maze... I don’t know what you were spoiled on (I really hope it’s not what I’m thinking about) but READ IT! It’s... I actually have no words for it... but just read it)

Loved this video! You did amazing :D OMG, the challenge "between this and this many pages" is the most obnoxious...I swear I spent like 10 minutes on that question alone for the first "Do I have that book" challenge before giving up. Apparently I do not have the ability to guess page count by looking at a book XD
Fox in the plot, does A Court of Throns and Roses count?? 😂 I don't want to spoil anyone. But a certain someone has a fox mask. Does that count? Hahaha
Book with a main character who wears glasses. Christine: "uuuuhhhh" Me: *Frantically yelling at the top of my lungs trying to help* HARRY POTTER!! CHRISTINE! HARRY POTTER!!! YOU KNOW THIS! CHRISTINE!!"
I keep checking your website and Barnes & Noble's website to see if there is an ISBN number for a signed copy will there be signed copies available for pre-order
i followed along by picking out books from my bookshelf while sitting in bed. was very impressed with myself that i remembered that night world was published the year i was born.
im reading harry potter right now my friendss at sschool are reading it my teacher is a big a harry potter fan im on chamber of secrets and im in love with it
after all these years, Christine still manages to blow out my eardrums with her music editing
there was a subtle dose of “let’s not talk about harry potter and jk rowling” in this video and i loved it

book signed by the author, I was half expecting you to grab Again but Better and a pen :p
And the question that asked for the author with the same number of letters in their name 😂
I still remember getting to the end of Twilight, assuming it was going to be a one off and being so excited that a sequel was on the way
throne of glass would have counted for the bonus. Mismatched covers, broken spine, signed by the author
Last time I was this early, we all still believed that Better Together was a sequel to ABB
LOL
You got the bonus point as well. Breaking Dawn had a broken spine, has a shape-shifter, and was signed by the author.

Anyway...back to the video! 🤗
The only book tuber I have been following for about 3 years now wow
She was the first booktuber I discovered
@@bkboyd2003 same
Just realised I’ve been here for eight 😳
SAME, SINCE I WAS 13
THAT WAS SUCH AN INTENSE CHALLENGE! All the falling, screaming, and yelling was hilarious to watch. Loved the video, Christine! Also: I’m so excited for “Better Together!” June can’t come fast enough!
Christine: 9 letters
Me: *stares at her own book*
Legend is actually a quartet! There's a 4th book called Rebel and it ties up the characters stories really well
you’re bookshelf are such goals ❤️
We love a rushing Christine
It's like a birb name! 🐦🐦🐦
“Do you have a book originally in another language”

Wow I just noticed she organizes her bookshelf by color! So cute!
A Jesse video and a Christine video in the same day! My life has been perfected.
“A book where the main character wears glasses” does The Blood of Olympus count? Jason’s a main character, he wears glasses and he’s not written by you know who
I love your lipstick choice, as always. That just screams confidence to me.
damn the IRREVELANCE of glasses book in this video... chefs kiss
yay!!! I remember suggesting this in the Instagram question thing
wait a sec, "a book with a narrow font on the cover"? You sure it ain't "a book with a narrow front cover"?😂
HAHAHA this is exactly what I was thinking
Fox in the plot, hmm do you have The Little Prince in your shelf?
I laughed when you did the narrow font prompt. I think it was narrow front cover though. Love you Christine!
Plus the bonus one was about having 3 or more prompts in one book not an anthology. It could've been Throne of Glass, Outlander or Breaking Dawn! 😂
can we all just agree that DANIEL RADCLIFF WROTE THE HARRY POTTER SERIES
Imm soo exited. BECAUSE OF UR NOVVEL.TOTALY GETTING IT!😘
Breaking dawn was a bonus point! It covered 3 prompts; broken spine, signed by the author, and shape shifters!
I'm so excited for your book!!!! Also, the covers make my heart so happy
Yaaayyy these are my fav! Im so excited for ur book!
This was so intense I forgot about my period cramps for 14 minutes god bless 🙌 now to binge your other stuff... 👌
Hope you're doing okay with everything that's going on atm sending *huuugs* from across the pond ❤
IVE NEVER CLICKED ON A VIDEO SO QUICKLY. I love Christine and bookshelf challenges
when in the purple shelf she has a book 9 letters in top of a book where a main character wears glasses in top of a book where cybercrime is a plot point in top of a appolo
I can’t wait for it to be June !!! I already requested at my library!! And my good friend is the one who approves purchases for my county soooooo this one is in the bag ! 😂😂😂
🎉🤩📚
07:21 I laugh myself death by the cover of Throne of Glass. Really Celaena her face!🤣. (Nice Challenge I really enjoyed it.)
Congrats on your book Christine!
A court of thorns and roses has a fox!!! the fox mask that Lucian has
:)
You should do a Restore Me book talk!!
Outlander was published in 1991 (around your birthday), is completely red and it have the same amount of letters as in your name :)
Yesss read trails Of Apollo...The last book just came out like 4 days ago CAN YOU BELIEVE IT'S THE END OF CAMP HALF BLOOD CHRONICLES?!?!
This was so funny. I love how mad you got when some of the books didn’t get a point. So competitive (like me lol)
I love it when you do book challenges! This was fun. Good job 😂
Me, watching this, yelling at the screen OUTLANDER HAS NINE LETTERS
Lol I'm DECEASED, aw Christine tried so hard and it was right in front of her nose.
Thank you for this video!!!!!! You did GREAT! And I’m SOOO EXCITED FOR BETTER TOGETHER!!! (Also... I too was spoiled for The Burning Maze...

I don’t know how you kept that sweater on with the heat, but you did, and I’m proud
I had a lot of fun watching this video 🥰 I missed you, Christine.
Your a winner keep up the good work
You should do more tag books
Yaaay love these challenges!!
THE GLASSES WEARING SHADE 💀bless you i loved that
I missed these types of videos so much 💖
xtine, thank u for entertaining me for years now!!!
Loved this video! You did amazing :D
OMG, the challenge "between this and this many pages" is the most obnoxious...I swear I spent like 10 minutes on that question alone for the first "Do I have that book" challenge before giving up. Apparently I do not have the ability to guess page count by looking at a book XD
Fun and energetic! Thank you.
Christine is just the best💕
I love competitive Christine especially against HERSELF 🤣🤣
Highly recommend the Brown Sisters series by Talia Hibbert. You would definitely love them!
Love your style and videos!
thank you =)
No one:
Christine: YEs I dO I Do I dooooo
Fox in the plot, does A Court of Throns and Roses count?? 😂 I don't want to spoil anyone. But a certain someone has a fox mask. Does that count? Hahaha
I requested this on Instagram!! YAY!!
You've probably answered this question before, but where did you get you bookshelf from ???? I really like it, and i need a new one !
Have you read Midnight Sun!? I want your opinion! 😩 I Loved it!!
Book with a main character who wears glasses.
Christine: "uuuuhhhh"
Me: *Frantically yelling at the top of my lungs trying to help* HARRY POTTER!! CHRISTINE! HARRY POTTER!!! YOU KNOW THIS! CHRISTINE!!"
There's drama with the harry potter books (the author saying some stuff that is messed up) a lot of people just won't talk about it now
You have so many giant books! 📚📚📚
I REALLY DO =D I LIKE EM THAT WAY
@@polandbananasBOOKS 😁
Christine: *panicking about being unable to find a 9-letter title*
Me: *staring the whole time at the very prominent spine that said 'Angelfall'*
Omg! Thank you so much for doing our tag!! 😍😱
Can someone tell me where she found that bookself that's on the other side of the tv? I didn't realise; and I need one like it.
I love the “uh uh I don’t want to put this one but okay”
Wait, wasn't the question "a book with a narrow front cover" not "a book with narrow font on the cover"?
I keep checking your website and Barnes & Noble's website to see if there is an ISBN number for a signed copy will there be signed copies available for pre-order
During the one that said with the same amount of letter with your name i was yelling DIVERGENT
i followed along by picking out books from my bookshelf while sitting in bed. was very impressed with myself that i remembered that night world was published the year i was born.
The snub on HP though. It’s not his fault his creator is a nitwit :(
Happpppy Friday!!! ✨✨✨
Christine just turns into a frustrated book gremlin in this video 😂
Ooo the page number one would have stressed me out 😂
You're an outlander fan!!! Heck yes!(I'm new here 😊)
0:56 🎶LETS GET DOWN TO BUSINESS TO DEFEAT THE HUNS🎶...im sorry i had to xoxo
I wish I had a bookshelf like yours!
It so amazing😍😘
(Gonna ask for again but better for my birthday)
Christine I’m Stressed!!!! 😂
I freaked out when the Asian Author popped up,LOVE THAT AUTHOR SO MUCH!!!!!!!!
3:39 You could've picked "let's say goodnight to every object ever"
lol it's not on this shelf XD
i love ur videos ur a lovely person bless u
You're so adorable Christine! :3
Would ACOTAR count as a fox one because of Lucien?
Also ANGELFALL has 9 letters
I was SCREAMING Crescent City!
For signed book you could just sign ABB
Or is that cheating
I mean it works, I guess.
I just realized Christine got the bonus point with Breaking Dawn (Signed by the author, shape-shifters, broken spine.)
I got real anxious for that banana. Glad it’s okay.
I adored this video 💕
I WAS LITERALLY SHOUTING "STARSIGHT" by Brandon Sanderson for the 9 letter book title! Lol. But I'm not sure if you have it tho!
Remember stories I ate this month lol
Yayyyy! A real copy of New Moon 😁
Furthermore by Tahera Mafi has a fox on the cover...
LOL it's not on this shelf
My adrenaline was rushing so much throughout that whole video...
While she was looking for the book with a title of 9 letters, I kept looking at a book that said "Angelfall" and it certainly had 9 letters hahaha
im reading harry potter right now my friendss at sschool are reading it my teacher is a big a harry potter fan im on chamber of secrets and im in love with it
