This is the closest to mood reading I think you’ve ever come and I loved it! People tackling their physical tbrs is one of my favourite concepts. You got so much done and had fun with it. Is there anything better?
unpacking is hard because you have to make tons of small decisions and decision making is psychologically proven to be one of the things that spends most of our energy 😊✨️
I loved this video so much! Seeing you make progress in so many series, work down the number of unread books on your shelves, and actually enjoy so many books you read was so fun! I would love if you made more like this (not necessarily with 10 books because that’s a lot!)
Thank you for introducing me to the lady hardcastle mysteries, it's quickly becoming a favourite of mine too!! Great point about it being a palate cleanser, rather than a lasagne🤣🤣
Thanks for the recs and reviews. The Forgotten Women series looks good, so I picked up the four books, which fortunately I could find used. One of my 2024 reading goals is to read 24 Asian authors in 2024. Congrats on the progess!
this was the push i needed to read shark heart! i’ve had it for a few months and was just tentative because it’s so out of my comfort zone but it sounds amazing! your endorsement is all i need!
I'm exactly the same with Frances Hardinge books! For some reason I have owned her four most recent books for a good while, and only in the past month did I finally bite the bullet and read The Lie Tree. I loved it personally. I think her writing has a quality to it where it appeals to a massive age range. I know its target audience is younger teens, but as a adult, I had a thoroughly good time!
This is my goal this year too. Because I’m tired of my tbr being way too long (180), I can only buy book one book for every ten I read (although my most anticipated reads & book boxes are exempt from the challenge, lol)
I don't know how you put off Heartstopper 5 for so long, but I'm glad you loved it! Alice Oseman is truly talented at expressing ideas amd emotions through her drawing. ❤
loved this video it was so fun!! can't wait to see what you think of how to solve your own murder - I've been waiting for someone else to read to see if it's good!
You’ve done some solve the murder with me type videos with murder mysteries and I think I just found your next one. I haven’t read it yet so I dont know if it’s good but the concept is cool and I’m a sucker for a good concept. The book is called You’ve Been Summoned by Lindsey Lamar. It’s a murder mystery where you the reader are the detective and are given clues and interviews and other things to solve the crime.
I wa salso taken aback by the drawing s of leeds! I got almost emotional seeing her drawing of kirkgate market even though i still see it every few weeks 😂
I like this type of vlog. It feels like what I am trying to do with my own shelves. I have two book buying opportunities this month and it’s killing me. One is a local author event at my indie bookstore and the other is the library’s annual book sale. I’ve told myself that I can only buy as many books as what I read and unhauled up to that point. So far I have earned 5 books. Not enough for what I want to buy.
Sometimes it just takes UA-cam a while to process them I think, looks like they're working for me at this point (as well as the transcript) so might be worth checking again? 😊
the thing with nghi vo books in this series is that they feel soooooo much better when reading then physically instead of audio, because you can pace yourself and read slower catching up with all the different threads that are being presented... I don't know but once I switched to physically and re-read the first this way and continued too, they became all 5✨️ for me
Ugh I wish I liked Heartstopper but I just find it to cringy. Maybe it’s because of my asexuality and the fact that I never experienced dating like ever, but yeah
I think next time you do this video your reward should not be longer than the average page number of the books read. Otherwise you will just burn through your shortest books and will be left with the bricks for later

I love this concept because you can pick up whatever books you’re in the mood for 💛 There’s no pressure to stick to a theme
I want to let you know that I got my mom on the Lady Hardcastle Mysteries because of you and she’s LOVING them. So thank you. 😊
Omg please do this type of video again really enjoyed this type. Reminds me of what I am trying to do atm with reading my physical tbr x
this vlog felt so satisfying!! love seeing you read what you genuinely want to read and also ticking off some series 🙌
Looooooove the long form videos
unpacking is hard because you have to make tons of small decisions and decision making is psychologically proven to be one of the things that spends most of our energy 😊✨️
“That’s going right in my basket“ meme is such a throwback that I totally forgot about !!!!!!
I loved this video so much! Seeing you make progress in so many series, work down the number of unread books on your shelves, and actually enjoy so many books you read was so fun! I would love if you made more like this (not necessarily with 10 books because that’s a lot!)
This is SUCH a fantastic video concept!
Thank you for introducing me to the lady hardcastle mysteries, it's quickly becoming a favourite of mine too!! Great point about it being a palate cleanser, rather than a lasagne🤣🤣
I feel like I should attempt this...
Meg please do more of these videos…so enjoyable …love the long length and so great seeing progress in physical tbr!!

I’ve heard such amazing things about Shark Heart. I really need to read it
Shark Heart emotionally wrecked me too 😭 it made me so happy to see you love it too! ❤
I've gone to an event with T Kingfisher and she speaks the same way she writes, it's so interesting! I've only read her horror and really enjoy it
I cannot wait for you to read How to Solve Your Own Murder! Since reading the arc in January I’ve felt like you’d love it!
Been waiting patiently for days for this video. So excited to watch 😂
this was the push i needed to read shark heart! i’ve had it for a few months and was just tentative because it’s so out of my comfort zone but it sounds amazing! your endorsement is all i need!
Loved loved loved this type of content!!! Please do more of these ❤
You are so happy when you read what you really want to. Great video.

Shark heart...truck stop baby! I couldnt move past that. Everything else about that book was amazing, but that truck stop kinda killed the mood for me
Great video and congrats on making progress on your goals!
If you liked reading about forgotten women artists I'd recommend the story of art without men by Katy Hessel, it's so informative and beautiful
This is my goal this year too. Because I’m tired of my tbr being way too long (180), I can only buy book one book for every ten I read (although my most anticipated reads & book boxes are exempt from the challenge, lol)
Omg I guessed right in the last vlog!!! I said that I thought you preferred Shark Heart to Our Wives Under the Sea. 😅 I’m so proud lol
I have loved watching this video. I hope that you do this challenge again, if you would like to.
I don't know how you put off Heartstopper 5 for so long, but I'm glad you loved it! Alice Oseman is truly talented at expressing ideas amd emotions through her drawing. ❤
Your videos bring me so much joy. Thank you! ❤
I'm so glad you liked shark heart. It was a 5 star for me too. I just want everyone to read it but you're right. It's not for everyone.
loved this video it was so fun!! can't wait to see what you think of how to solve your own murder - I've been waiting for someone else to read to see if it's good!

I have to agree about Kingfisher. I had the arc and nope, don't remember it 🙈
I enjoyed this video. I was so sad when I caught up with The Lady Hardcastle series.
This was fun to watch 💙
I know we’re here for the books but can you drop the skin care routine pls x
Do you watch Father Brown? That has the same vibes as the Lady Hardcastle books. Don't know what the books are like though because I've not read them
I love this plan. I have so many unread books. I am going to try this! 😊
It is a good idea and keep in mind you don't have to stick to ten. You can so 5 read earns 1 purchase, or whatever ratio works best for you.
I liked this video concept!
I love this idea!! Hi kitties 🥹
I definitely prefer T Kingfisher's horror novels over her fantasy novels, but I will say the only one I haven't liked at all is What Moves the Dead.
The Wii music over the crying 😂😂
I was surprised that Heartstopper wasn’t your last read. I thought for sure you’d save it for last
seeing a McElroy clip in the wild is so jarring
You do know Alice Oseman wrote some YA novels for the Heartstopper series?
you've read 2 non-fiction in this vlog too!!!!! 😮
Meg the subtitles on your video are not available 😢
Sometimes it just takes UA-cam a while to process them I think, looks like they're working for me at this point (as well as the transcript) so might be worth checking again? 😊
@@bethmw28 thank you :)
Omg I used to do these all the time and made templates on insta for it…. Then I just ended up buying more and actually reading less 😂😭
📚📚✨
Shark heart destroyed us all boo
