    This is the first time I actually wait for a creator to upload anything UA-cam or TikTok, every single video on any platform from you is just like a treat, I really enjoy watching every second.

  • @Videlreyes2
    @Videlreyes2 7 днів тому +30

    I love that you said you're not trying to ruin reading by overthinking how to take notes. I also love how you don't seem to want to rush through a book to hurry and give a review of it. Some people think rushing to share their rate/review of it for content is more important than just sitting and reflecting on what they just read.
    I enjoy how you seem to read for yourself and that you just happen to feel like sharing your love of books with us ♥
    It doesn't feel like you're forcing yourself to read. And I hope you never feel that way

      @ my current favorite is the ACOTAR series. There are many characters and the scenes under the mountain are pretty intense but it’s a great way to distract you during your walk! There are quite a few options on the audible catalog and I know some public libraries have Libby where you can find some too.

    please never stop making these! and I am totally with you on the audiobooks - I never listen to them EXCEPT for memoirs read by the authors themselves, I love to hear them tell their stories (rather than a receptive self-help podcast) on my walks! Loved Ina Garten's memoir way more than I thought I would!

    Hello, Malissa! I have been following you on Instagram and watching your videos since the beginning of last year. I thoroughly enjoy watching your content, and it makes me very happy that you've decided to create long-form videos on UA-cam. I had to put my reading on hold to focus on my NCLEX, but I've been making a list of your book recommendations and I cannot wait to read them once my exam is over. Watching your videos after spending the entire day studying has been a treat for me. Thank you for sharing glimpses into your life with us, and I look forward to seeing more of your content and watch your channel grow. Sending you lots of love from the Philippines! 🇵🇭 I wish you a wonderful day ahead 🤍
