    Girl I felt the same way about red rising. I was lucky to have my husband right next to me while I read it because he has read the series multiple times so he was my walking red rising google to explain stuff. I’m currently on the newest book and I still feel dumb sometimes even though I love the series.

    You DEFINITELY need to read the debutantes duology by Jennifer Lynn Barnes, it's so so so good with so much rich people drama, plot twists, amazing but complicated characters and secrets AND THE WRITING!!! I loved it wayyy more than the inheritance trilogy, which everybody loves.

    vicious was originally a standalone; vengeful came out several years after vicious. i personally liked vengeful lol but vicious could definitely just be a standalone. VE Schwab has so many other books though and they're all different, she's one of my fav authors! a darker shade of magic is really good

    The quality of your content is so impressive at this point! I appreciate the book info you put in the corners. The only thing is that YA is an age range rather than a genre, so The Naturals' genre would probably be YA mystery/thriller :) Keep up the good work!

    Omg, yes! I read Vengeful in July as well and it was the most pointless sequel ever. Also gave it 2*. It was so obvious she wrote Vicious as a standalone and sequel was just an afterthought, because Vicious was popular.

  • @squidwardtentacles7144
    @squidwardtentacles7144 Рік тому

    I feel so seen. I felt the same way with "Then She Was Gone". I rated it a bit higher (3.5🌟) because it was still an entertaining read for me once I got to the second half so I'll give her that. But I felt the same way about the twist that I honestly think that it must have been intentionally. That you were supposed to know who did it and then follow their actions and how the family missed them. That's just my theory though. Also, I forgot to comment this on your last video but I do enjoy when you put the time and date in certain clips!
