What was your fav book in June?
Its the busiest month so far for me so i kind of finished only 1 book which is The cruel prince! And surprisingly i really really like it more than i thought it would be!
Just started hunger games I’m lovin it
@@Faithful_Fork omg fun!
@@mancanesloureignefranzp.1499 1 book is great! And a good one too :)
read “see you yesterday” by rachel lynn soloman; it was a really fun ya read!! very cute romance that had me smiling and kicking my lil feet ✨
Six Crimson Cranes was fantastic! And the prequel was really great too. Other books I suggest that you might like as a result? Song of the Six Realms and the Song of Silver, Flame like Night duology. 🥰
Ohhh I will check those out, thank you!!
A 20 page smut scene is wild lol 😂
IN BOTH BOOKS LOL
Jaime - i love and appreciate the amount of detail and dedication you put in these monthly wrap ups 🎉❤
Thank you!!! Glad you like them ❤️
I started throne of glass last week, really excited about it, I already bought all the 8 books at once😅
YAYYYY!!! I bough the entire box set at once for TOG as well 😂 it’s the best way to do it! Enjoy the journey❤️
Jamie, I found you through your Fourth Wing review video and I love all of your reviews!! I am also jealous of everyone's TBR carts!! Definitely going to read Five Broken Blades
hiiiiiii! omg love that fourth wing has bonded us hehe. hope you love it!
I just finished Babel half an hour ago and prepared myself for depression for the rest of the day so this video came at the perfect time 😅
That’s so real of you 😂
This many books and a whoke job is genuinely so impressive! 👏🏻👏🏻
Hehe thank you!! ❤️
Just finished Another Love Song and loved it haha, excited about Ann Liang's book with you hyping it up 🤍🤍
Omgggg PREORDER NOW 😂❤️
Oh My God Jaimee!!
Can we just take a moment and appreciate that how amazing Jaime is? Like she is a superwoman. She have 2 full time job, she is working out consistently, she has house to take care like all the chores and stuff and yet she can have time to read 17 books in a monthh?? Omg you’re incredibly productive and I really wanna see how can you manage your life/work/hobby balance. Cause when I read 200 pages a day, it will be the only thing that i do in the entire day! LOL! So big respectt!!!
@@selcanqurbanli omg ahahaha ily for this ❤️❤️
My favorite book in June was Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson. I was kind of like you. I read Mistborn books 1 and 2 and liked the books, but didn’t love them like everyone else does. So I went into Warbreaker with very low expectations. I was blown away! The characters, story, and ending were all so good. I highly recommend this book if you want to give Brandon Sanderson another try. And it’s a standalone which is even better. Everything was wrapped up so well.
Ok ok yes, I’ll have to try warbreaker!
A song to Drown Rivers was already high on my list of books I wanted to read as soon as it is released but you convinced me even more! I read I hope this does not find you from the same author and LOVED IT. It convinced me that I could still like YA romances and eat it up.
Can't wait for A song to Drown Rivers to be released in October!
AHH YAY! Omg I need to read her other books ASAP
I congratulate. I just read 8 books.
I completely agree with you about This Summer Will Be Different & A Fate Inked in Blood.
@@shelleylawrence8397 so disappointing 😭
Just for the Summer was my favorite June read. I was so invested in every character and wow it was an emotional roller coaster. I loved it!
Definitely understood the YA feels. Some are so good, and others are so irritating with their brash actions and thoughts.
LOVE JFTS AH!
lol I'm glad you understand my confusion with YA
I could watch your videos for hours and hours ❤ you're the best
Omg ily!!
The romance in B&B was like... so cute??? I kinda loved their relationship so much. But the smut was really something else. I felt like the MMC did a personality flip in those scenes lol.
EXACTLY LOL. It was actually really cute, but just skip the smut 😂
Seventeen books is really impressive. Seems like you had a bit of tough reading month with several books falling short of expectations. Pre-ordered A Song to Drown Rivers upon your recommendation. Added Not Another Love Song to my TBR. I hope you have a great week
Hope you enjoy! Haha had some not so great reads, but also some outstanding ones as well :)
@@jaimefok Thank you
June was my Ali Hazelwood month too
Omg haha! It’s a good time for her books 😂
17 books is a lot but happy that you enjoyed it 😊
Thank you!!
i read Six crimson cranes last year and thought it was one of the best ive read and after reading the sequel i actually found it better than the first but ive yet to read the prequel
Omg ok yay! I’m glad to hear you loved the sequel as well❤️
Aw I’m sending you love❤
❤️❤️
Wow I have heard so many people talk about Butcher and Blackbird. I've been wanting to read it for a long time now but I've heard people say it's spicy I didn't know they meant 20 pages long spicy lol I'm scared I'm not going to like it now. Love your videos thanks for being honest about books.
@@gothpsyduck you can for sure skim/skip the spice, it doesn’t add to the plot 😂
Good morning Jamie!!
Good morning!
I’m normally not a fantasy girlie at all (def more into romance, contemporary, and mysteries), but I picked up Five Broken Blades because of that beautiful cover and finished it in two days! Now I’m obsessed and want to try more fantasies. Would love any recommendations! I also just picked up Six of Crows!
@@superslowwinnieee YES!! I love that, now you’re in for a whole new world (literally)
I think you would enjoy The Kiss Quotient trilogy (interconnected romance trilogy) by Helen Hoang. I thought they were cute and all three had characters with autism. It was nice to see that representation.
Oh amazing! I’ll have to check it out
I do agree with the butcher and blackbird book like i kind of dnfed that past halfway into the book. And oh wow im looking for a fantasy but not that kind of heavy plus it has dragonish vibes! so i think ill try that six crimson cranes. And oh should i tryyu other ann liang books until october??😭 I still havent tried to read books from that specific author. Like I LOVE ACOWARRRR SOOO~ Im a bit intimidated by kristin hannah's book but i would love to diversified my reads so seeing how you enjoyed reading that give me hope lol 😆
B&B would probably have been a great novella 😂
I haven’t read any other Ann Liang books but I want to now!
I adored Six Crimson Cranes; really loved the prequel as well!
Is six crimson cranes based on the brothers Grimm story The Six Swans?
It is, yeah!
Is a Song to Drown Rivers a standalone or did it end with the possibility of a sequel?
standalone!
I really want to try cosy mysteries, but haven’t found where to start
IDK what really makes a cozy mystery but I get cozy vibes reading Adrienne young!
I’m reading now it ends with us by Colleen Hoover it is good so far . Have u read it yet ?
I read it a while ago!
Hi Jamie! I'm just wondering, in the book "Spells of Forgetting," when the mystery of the murder is uncovered, is it a very magical and far-fetched reveal, or does it make sense in the context of what happened?
There’s a bit of magical realism, but it wasn’t like SO out of the blue, def hints toward it!
@@jaimefok okey amma give it a try ! thanks for the reccomendation!
Have you read the Percy Jackson books? Or is not your type
I feel like I missed the hype on those! For some reason, I never read them and now I feel like it's too late haha
@@jaimefok it's not too late, I started reading the series a few weeks ago and I'm on the third book right now it's so captivating
But why are they nearly all Romance 😐
I read 7 romance, 6 fantasy, 2 thriller, 1 lit fic, 1 historical fiction.
In the summer months, I tend to gravitate towards lighter, romance reads. There’s nothing wrong with that, and I’m not sure why it’s an issue with you either way 🤷🏻♀️
why not?
