🤯 i believe retellings are just a hit or miss... it really depends on how well the author develops the story and that new, original aspect they bring to it.
I feel like you are the first person I've heard say that they didn't like Normal People! I read it last year and it was hands down my least favorite but I feel like I hear everyone raving about it all the time! Thanks for making me not feel crazy!
I see you have the book “Caraval” on your bookcase. It’s come along as a recommended read for me because of previous purchases. Have you read it and if so what did you think? Honest Mel review required. Thanks xx
My friend made me read it and I loved it! I didn’t really know anything about it before going it but I was thoroughly surprised by how enjoyable it was.
Not genre but trope. Depending on the summary I don’t like the stepsibling trope UNLESS they meet for the very first time. Like it’s weird if they catch feelings after they have grown up together or even are family for a couple/few years and then catch feelings. But considering I’ve only read one trilogy with a straight couple, now I want to read one between two stepsisters or two stepbrothers😂😅
1) I love fanatsy but I didn't like the atlas six. The writing was giving wattpad. All of the characters were very planned out which made them plain but somehow also annoying 2) I rarely read Scify but before the coffee gets cold is such a good book. I enjoyed it so much 3) I love fake dating (yes, I am serious) but the love hypothesis was an experience that I did not enjoy. Questionable and cringy 4) grumpy and sunshine - it's so beyond annoying but Hani and Ishues guide to fake dating was chef's kiss. 5) I love Rick Riordan's book. Almost all of them are my personality. Except for the trials of Apollo. (I definitely agree with your take on Elizabeth Acevedo) 6) Poet X. I didn't like with the fire on high but poet x made me feel so seen as a latina and boy can Elizabeth Acevedo write! 7) Cinder by Marissa Meyer (not the American cover god forbid) the german cover is stunning. But I didn't like it, sadly 8) the seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo. I wouldn't have this if book social media hadn't been screaming at me for months. I'm so glad I did but the cover is a no.
Should I start with unpopular opinions: I love fantasy, but I didn't like The Lord of the Rings 😞 But that's on me I was expecting a fast book and it wasn't hahaha I have to read book two tho
Hey Mel, have you read the “Three Dark Crowns” series? I’m on the last book and I absolutely adore the series. I think we have very similar tastes in books so I think you should try it! Loveeeee you!

absolutely yes!! i've read some fantastic retellings and some... more questionable ones, but there's tons of potential within the trope/genre
your videos bring me so much peace in stressful times...I just wanted to thank you for making my days a lot better and I hope you're doing well too!!
not me tearing up😭💖
I was laughing all the way through this one! Especially about Normal people 😂 We all contradict ourselves so no worries!
i'm literally a walking contradiction... but i love it😂
📕
I love retelligs but I hated Into the Neverwoods by Aiden thomas. I was super hyped when I got it but every 15 pages I would literally fall aspleep!!
omg don't get me started!! adored cemetery boys, but lost in the never woods was a big no for me😭 didn't have the same magic🥲
