I just realized that you’re actually a fairly new booktuber... what. Can I just say... you speak so eloquently! And you have such character on camera. ❤️❤️
I’m honestly so happy somebody else also loved the selection series like I did! I don’t know a whole lot of people or even booktubers who do so it’s amazing to see somebody does!
@@FunkySockGoblin At first I didn't know that there was a change in the protagonist and I stopped reading the book because it was not very interesting but I kept reading and it's is not as good as the first three but the story was cute
I read a lot because of Booktube. When you spend so much time in a community, it's hard not to be influenced by it. I made a video recently where I read books that were mentioned at a specific point in videos - regardless of what was being said about them. Fun project!
I LOVED Since You've Been Gone and I have read it a few times. I also liked the Selection series and also treated it as a trilogy. I didn't have a desire to read the rest. Fangirl also another favorite and I'm a little disappointed that Rainbow hasn't put a lot out. I loved all of her books. I really related to Cath. I am not into fanfiction, but I was always quiet, morally driven, and I would totally be the type to want to avoid the cafeteria because I don't know where it is or how it works. I always feel like everyone just knows what to do in new situations and I missed something lol. You have won me over!!!
I LOVE THE SELECTION!!! I just started reading it and I’m on The Heir!!! I honestly agree I don’t really like the Heir. But I love the rest, I ship Maxon and America, but Aspen can screw off😂😂😂
I read we were liars at the beginning of this year and it only took me a day. I did not expect the plot twist and I thought it was a great book. Since then I’ve slowly started to widen my book collection. I also got since you’ve been gone today for Christmas along with some other books that I’m looking forward to reading!!
I am new to the booktube universe (just started watching not currently planning on videos) you are a wonderful speaker and definitely gave me a couple of great book ideas! I would like to state my opinion that I do disagree with a couple of things about The Selection. I read them as they were coming out so from like 12 to 15/16-ish and I found them interesting and developed, but it has been a while since I've read them and your opinions made me think maybe I should do a re-read of the series.
These are all super popular books and yet I’ve only read two of those (fangirl and since you’ve been gone) but I’ve been meaning to check out vicious for the longest time! Xx
I’m adding all of these books to my reading list, thanks for sharing! 💫 Keep rising to be who you want to be! 💫 #keeprising #risingtobe #aswerise #riser
I love your description of the selection. The writing is not the greatest, it's mediocre but you love it... I felt the same way!!! I loved the series (not including book 4&5 because I tried to read those but I can't do it), but felt the same way as you did about it.
I've read all but 3 of the books you mentioned and 2 out of those 3 are very high on my TBR hahaha the only one I'm not really interested in is Since You've Been Gone mostly because I don't really like contemporaries hahaha Hope your February has been great! Have a lovely next couple of weeks, love. xx
I agree with the choppy writing for We Were Liars. I can see how it could be a plus for some people, but sadly it wasn't for me :( Oh well, we all love different books :) Oh man, I need to read some V.E. Schwab so bad!! Also, FANGIRL, yes!! I wanted to let you know that I tagged you in the Reading Habits book tag! I thought you would really like that tag :)
@@MackenzieLane It made it that much better though. I can normally predict the outcome of a book, especially if it's a thriller or mystery, but this was the first book I've read that I never saw the ending coming
Hey so, I’m not a bookworm but I do need help. Are you familiar with the book The mysterious Benedict society 4? I don’t know the 4th book and my niece wanted it as her birthday gift.
the first three selection books were really food in my opinion. i really enjoyed the drama even though the topic was really basic and kind of boring. it’s literally just like the bachelor. i read the last two as well and i enjoyed them but definitely weren’t as good as the trilogy. they took me a lot longer to get through. still enjoyed nonetheless
I’d love to read vicious but the book isn’t available in my language and I don’t really like reading books in other languages because I’d have to focus more on the individual words and won’t be able to enjoy the book as much.
Hello i'm french and i want to improve my english and i've read to all the boys i've loved before and i understood everything. Is since you've been gone, easy like tatbilb or ??? And if you have other books to recommand me you're welcome to
I'd say so, yeah! anything contemporary is usually written in a more "simplistic" style (if that makes any sense) so I'd think they'd be easier to read in a second language!
I loved the selection series. They are great audio books. I really liked Since you've been gone too. Unfortunately I didn't like fangirl. It was the first book that I skipped pages and I just did not like that at all and it was before I read harry potter. Now that I read harry potter wonder if I would like fangirl more.
I will say, the fanfiction parts of Fangirl did not interest me... at all. I still read them, because I thought maybe the bits we were shown would have some sort of commentary on the actual characters' lives, but I didn't glean anything special or unique from those parts. This is why I probably will never pick up 'Carry On'
Hello, I need to do a video interview for my project at the English school at Fisk. I'd like to know if you could give me an interview telling me what it's like to be a booktuber these days.
I'm so glad you're a Christian! ❤. I've been trying to find good Christian booktubers to connect with and subscribe to! Woohoo! (I only know this because I read your "bio" intro haha).
Hey Mackenzie! I want to give a CHALLENGE for you and for the whole BOOKTUBERS community: Make a video talking about the best books you remembered reading when you were a kid, list down a couple, maybe 4 or 5, but the more the merrier! Let's call it the #MYCHILDHOODREADS challenge! I did mine already and I feel that this video that I made about is one of my most special videos ever and one I value most dearly. This will give us the opportunity as book tubers, to remember the most memorable moments we got when were just a kid - holding a book in our hands - basically remembering how our reading journey started. SO, if you are IN, SHARE THIS CHALLENGE, and do NOT forget to use the # above, I am too excited and can't wait to see yours! Best of luck and happy reading - Kind Regards, Bryan.
If you’re into high fantasy consider reading my new book: www.wattpad.com/774198099-sorcerer%27s-spring-a-tale-from-exia-a-sentinel-in Here is an excerpt: “It’s easier to kill yourself than one would think; you simply need to start slowly. First, you select the piece that chafes the most; then you find what feeds it. And once a you is dead, one can become most anything. My death began with dresses-which is fair in that I was the death of many myself. But I forget how our stories go, from birth to death not notion to notion (I forget such things so often, I fear I gained less than I bargained to in my losing). Anyway. I am the 6th of twelve sisters. (A nymphling may only have sisters). I, as each of us, was born in spring; born into a gilded cage; a fixture of my mother’s Edenic prison. And it wasn’t a small world when I was small. No. Every tree was infinite before I crest its top; every flower new when a season stretched beyond a child’s reason; every laugh a song before I too grew rueful.“
Mackenzie Lane I do! I drive through there occasionally. Im from bixby but this past year ive been living near sallisaw.. plan to move out to bristow hopefully next year :-D lol
Hello, you should read Wilda Silva, Secret Keeper. It’s a fantasy book written for middle school kids or teens who have parents with substance abuse issues. It’s is enlightening and full of action! This is a book by an African American author. Wildasilva.com
I just realized that you’re actually a fairly new booktuber... what. Can I just say... you speak so eloquently! And you have such character on camera. ❤️❤️
Thank you!!
yeah for sure just found this channel
I recently read ‘we were liars’ and I completely enjoyed it...the plot twist was just wow😍
Joddin Merckel I WAS NOT EXPECTING THE PLOT TWIST IN THIS BOOK. and yet i somehow love it and i’m so glad other people love it!
i LOVE this book
Really I didnt like it at all
I’m honestly so happy somebody else also loved the selection series like I did! I don’t know a whole lot of people or even booktubers who do so it’s amazing to see somebody does!
Have you done a worst books you read because of booktube? If not- video suggestion!
I do have a few I don't think I've mentioned on my channel... :P
I read we were liars in one day, first time I've done that in a while!
I love The Selection series! And yeah good choice to just stick with the original three.
@@FunkySockGoblin At first I didn't know that there was a change in the protagonist and I stopped reading the book because it was not very interesting but I kept reading and it's is not as good as the first three but the story was cute

Fangirl is one of my favourite books off all time. I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
Since You've Been Gone - great Rainbow song.
this is such a great vid idea!! i have completely different reading taste to you but its nice to see your perspective on books that i don't like
Oh my gosh!! The Selection Series was the best thing that happened to me because of book tube!! It got me back into reading!
I Loved the Selection, and the covers are so gorgeous!!! It was just a fun read.
I also want to reread vicious 💕 this is a great video idea booktube has made me pick up some really great books
Wow, that Illuminae book is HUGE! You're so watchable, with a nice to-listen-to voice.
Waaaa! Yeees! So happy that you'd recommend The Selection series because I love that series and would recommend them as well! ❤
Dayne Maegical it’s so good!!
Yes I absolutely love the selection! I binged them all in one day haha. So addictive!
you're a fast reader!! lol it took me about a week and half to read all three. But I was moving four states over, so maybe that's why :P
Yesss I LOVE Vicious! I can’t wait to read Vengeful this year! 😄
I loved the Selection books! I'm dying to read Vicious too.
I really want to read Throne and Glass. I loved Eleanor and Park & Fangirl!
I definitely agree with you on most of them!
Oh my gods of Olympus this is so true these books were so hyped
Ah I totally agree with your review!
“ we were liars “ wasn’t for me but I am glad that I have read it the writing was amazing.
I LOVED Since You've Been Gone and I have read it a few times.
I also liked the Selection series and also treated it as a trilogy. I didn't have a desire to read the rest.

y'all the crown has such a cute ending it's probably my fave in the series
YOU SHOULD READ THE HEIR AND THE CROWN THEY ARE AMAZINGGGG.. but absolutely not like the first three books ❤❤
Omg I’ve never read the selection and I need to! I love your aesthetic! 💗
I legit read them all within a week
I read we were liars at the beginning of this year and it only took me a day. I did not expect the plot twist and I thought it was a great book. Since then I’ve slowly started to widen my book collection. I also got since you’ve been gone today for Christmas along with some other books that I’m looking forward to reading!!
Oh yay, I'm glad you liked We Were Liars! It is a nice quick read :)
& nothing better than books for Christmas!! So excited for you!

Deanna Phillips I agree she is a wonderful speaker!
I really love throne of glass
It definitely leaves a lot of strings ready to be tied up in the last book!
Mackenzie Lane and victor = victoria, and eli = elizabeth, the author's first and middle name!
These are all super popular books and yet I’ve only read two of those (fangirl and since you’ve been gone) but I’ve been meaning to check out vicious for the longest time! Xx
I JUST STARTED READING THE SELECTION!!

I lovvved We Were Liars. It tugged on my heart so bad and when the twist came I cried so hard! 💔😩❤
I cried at the twist, too! It was so shocking to me :P

Hi Your blurb on the Vicious novel, by V E Schwab, caught my interest. Will you be doing a more, in depth review?
the first three selection books were really food in my opinion. i really enjoyed the drama even though the topic was really basic and kind of boring. it’s literally just like the bachelor. i read the last two as well and i enjoyed them but definitely weren’t as good as the trilogy. they took me a lot longer to get through. still enjoyed nonetheless
since you've gone story has been used in one of the episodes of the show God Friended Me
I’d love to read vicious but the book isn’t available in my language and I don’t really like reading books in other languages because I’d have to focus more on the individual words and won’t be able to enjoy the book as much.

Yeah since I hated Fangirl I am hesitant to read Carry On. But I now have read harry potter so maybe I will like it. I'm just not sure.
You NEED to read Caraval, best fantasy genre I’ve ever read
V. E. Shwab is slytherine... Thats explain all her characters. I love her. 😘😍
