    All the Light We Cannot See is amazing!!!! I love it. I'm reading it a 2nd time. What amazed me was how much connection there is between all the characters even before they met.

    It seems like people either loved or hated Isla. I'm interested to see where I sit with it once I get my hands on it.
    Also, I need to get my hands on All the Light I Cannot See. I have heard nothing but wonderful things about it.

  • @itsmeezgii
    @itsmeezgii 10 років тому

    I need to read the kiss of deception & burial rites because they sound absolutely wonderful!

  • @KeepCalmwithBooksandCoffee
    @KeepCalmwithBooksandCoffee 10 років тому

    I had similar feelings about the Locke and Key series. I wanted to explore the keys and doors SO much more than the horror elements. Very cool month of reading!

  • @radiantstar
    @radiantstar 10 років тому

    I have All The Light on hold for me at the library. I can't wait to read it! I loved The Storied Life so much. I just really felt for the characters. And I really want to read Burial Rites. It sounds so interesting!

  • @rosemannering
    @rosemannering 10 років тому

    Your videos are always so much fun to watch :). I definitely need to check out The Storied Life of A. J. Fikry - your description made it sound amazing!

    @yellowtreezy 10 років тому

    I finished the Locke and Key series last month and oh man, it was fantastic! You'll probably really love the second volume. That one sticks out in my head as being particularly funny.

  • @sandybains5871
    @sandybains5871 10 років тому

    OH MY GOSH! I LOVE Burial Rites by Hannah Kent. I read that book this month and it was so fantastic. One of the best books I have read this year. And in the last few pages, I wasn't expecting to cry but then suddenly I was bawling. So well written! I hope she writes more books. I would read them!

  • @reading_with_k
    @reading_with_k 10 років тому

    It's good to know that about The Falconer. I've been wanting to read that for a while now, but maybe I'll put it to the back of my TBR...
    A perfect review for Kiss of Deception. It was wonderful.

  • @isabelacavalcanti565
    @isabelacavalcanti565 10 років тому +1

    Are you planning on doing a room tour now that you moved out? Also an updated bookshelf tour? That would be great!
    I've read The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry last month and I ADORED it.

  • @Myswiftlife
    @Myswiftlife 10 років тому

    Kiss of Deception is getting higher on my list of books to purchase. The storied Life sounds amazing. I am jotting it down. Hannah Kent has an event at the Writing Festival in Melbourne. I hope to see her speak one day, I have heard amazing things about Burial rites. I am going to be picking it up asap.

  • @Jellyfish-chan19
    @Jellyfish-chan19 10 років тому +3

    I really enjoyed Isla and the happily ever after. Mainly because i love Josh. But i was always waiting for a conflict to appear. In the two previous books there were a lot of them and a lot of going back and forth.
    And off-topic, i really like your pastel colored shelf with fangirl, landline etc :')

  • @Collsy100
    @Collsy100 10 років тому

    Can we please get a new bookshelf tour? The new shelf looks great and I can't wait to see your organization style explained.

  • @athenatamsin9791
    @athenatamsin9791 10 років тому

    I'm reading 'All The Light We Cannot See' right now. Only a few pages in, but I loved 'The Book Thief' (it is my all time favourite book), so if this is up there it must be amazing!

  • @Frandalfthegrey
    @Frandalfthegrey 10 років тому

    @MissKriekentaart 10 років тому

    I finally got my hands on All The Light We Cannot See, but not really in the mood for WW2 books right now, so I'm gonna let it wait until next month

  • @LostInLit
    @LostInLit 10 років тому +2

    The Kiss of Deception was better than I expected as well, and I was expecting it to be great. I absolutely loved it, and am sad I have to wait so long for the next installment.

  • @omer8882
    @omer8882 10 років тому +5

    I genuinely loved this video. The reviews were very informative, honest and serious, which is way better than people who just jump and yell about books.

    @fakegamergirl9630 10 років тому

    I finally got a copy of All The Light We Cannot See and I am so excited to read it. It's the middle of my semester at school but I was thinking of reading it when I'm on my summer break (December/January). But I don't think I can wait that long :P

  • @ohitsmandi

  • @leeannereads8479
    @leeannereads8479 10 років тому

    I read all of the Locke & Key graphic novels this month. They were so compelling and right up my alley that I just read them one after another. I hope you like the next ones in the series better than the first one, because I really loved them. :)

  • @Wanderness
    @Wanderness 10 років тому +2

    I was at the library and just looking around for a book to read and I picked up all the lights we cannot see and read the summary thing (literally forgot what it was called on the spot) decided to get and and I’m sooooo glad I did (I’m around 110 pages in)

  • @pridecat8995

    I want to read All the Light We Cannot See so bad. There are so many holds at the library that I am just tempted to buy it but I don't love buying books that I haven't read and loved and know I will read again.

  • @Wolfhailstorm
    @Wolfhailstorm 10 років тому

    Some great reads for you last month! I'm hoping friends and family get me a wave of books for my birthday on the 13th, so I'll have such good reading material! Yuhh, I'm hoping September will be the month for me! ^^
    As always, great video!

    A lot of the books you read sound awesome! Totally ending up on my September TBR! =)
    I read quite a lot this month. Unbecoming of Mara Dyer, Lola & The Boy Next Door, Ready Player One, Mocking Jay, Maybe Someday, Ugly Love, Wait For You, Hover, Gravity, The Twelfth Keeper, Center of the Universe, After The End, Opposition, & Wander Love. O_O Didn't realize how much I read until now. I think I was soaking the last of my summer before fall semester came. ^^"

  • @BooksofAmber
    @BooksofAmber 10 років тому +2

    The angsty stuff in Isla really annoyed me, which is a shame because I had been waiting YEARS. It's a shame you didn't love Locke & Key! I really like that series, and it ends really well. Glad you're continuing with it! The backstory gets AWESOME.

    • @PeruseProject
      @PeruseProject  10 років тому +5

      ***** I agree it got really angsty in the middle.. I also was pretty annoyed with the whole planning your entire future around a boy friend you had for 2 months.. But ya know. I am excited to continue!

    • @BooksofAmber
      @BooksofAmber 10 років тому

      PeruseProject Yep, I was sure that by the end she would change her mind and be like "this is silly".

  • @WhitneyChantalle
    @WhitneyChantalle 10 років тому

    I've heard so much about the Kiss of Deception and like you - have been skeptical. But I think you just changed my mind. I also LOVE stories about WWII - and will try and get my hands on All the Light We Cannot see. Also have you read Prisoner of Night & Fog, Reagan? I've wanted to read it for a while - it's another WWII story - and you seem to like those :) x

  • @Jellafy
    @Jellafy 10 років тому +2

  • @TheBookishGinger

    Kiss of Deception sounds pretty amazing. I'm kind of sad you didn't enjoy The Falconer as much as you had hoped. I think I will probably still try it though

    @NadaAlawadhi 4 роки тому

    The Kiss of Deception, I am halfway through and I’m loving it and all but I guessed wrong! And was so damn sure! Ugh I am going back to read everything to sort everything in my brain into the proper order. I was like this is too easy... can’t believe I was wrong 🤦🏻‍♀️ 😂

  • @Amaz0nica

    This month I read Winger, I reread Anna and the French Kiss, I read Isla and the Happily Ever After and I reread the first 5 Harry Potter books (in the middle of Half-Blood Prince now). Any month that contains Harry Potter is a good month! I think I'm going to have to read The Kiss of Deception once I've finished rereading Harry Potter, everyone's been saying it's really good.

    • @beatricevilladelgado9024

    • @Nataliecj
      @Nataliecj 10 років тому +1

      Usually I only get in around 5 or 6, but because it's summer and the first 3 Harry Potters are pretty short, I got through more. :)

  • @nokiddingbrainless
    @nokiddingbrainless 10 років тому

    I like the more talkativeness, definitely, because you always have such great things to say! For example, you're the first one who's actually made me want to read Isla! (Though I need to read Lola first. I wasn't the biggest fan of Anna because of the cheating thing.)

  • @nadja7598
    @nadja7598 8 років тому

    You should read The girl you left behind by JoJo Moyes if you haven't already. Such a great novel set during WWI in France. Similar undertone to All the light we cannot see

    I also read the 1st volume of Locke and Key this month and enjoyed it! Did you know Joe Hill is Stephen King's son? I'll try to get my hands on the 2nd volume soon, 'cause one of my best friends read the whole series and said it is amazing, so cannot wait! I also have added The Kiss of Deception to my WL thanks to you ;-) Greetings from Belgium!
