“She wanted to be a baker… that’s all she wanted” might be my favorite part of this video 😂
I saw this comment before watching the video and the fact that I knew what book this was about and I haven’t even read it🤣
It’s so true though 😭
@@jaymeestahlSameee!!!! I have read it though. It's my absolute favorite! ❤
What book? I missed it lol
@@majacervin8867Heartless! About the Queen of Hearts I believe, haven’t read it but now I want to know about this want to be baker version of her if that’s what it’s about 😂 low key
“the best book that i will never recommend” is a perfect description.
That's the best way to describe "a little life"🤣
I read this comment before watching the video. Instantly knew which book it was 😭
the short sentences and how fast she talks is literally so good for my ADD. like music to my ears
LITERALLY
so true
Self diagnosed, eh?
@@thefatvegan5008 um no i have medical records of it 😆😆

*by a thread!🫶
Chestnut Springs and The Naturals were the BEST series I read this year!
I was SHOCKED by the 2 star rating on the cruel prince trilogy. I ate those books up, in my opinion they are amazing. If you like fantasy and enemies to lovers you need to give them a try
Same!
everytime i come across another person that hates it I'm always very entertained. A lot of the times there's no in between. people either hate it or love it. I think a lot of people want more romance in it lol. The rating for the book on goodreads has somehow gotten even lower too HAHAHA. It's very funny to me even though I would be the first person to recommend the series to anyone looking for a good fantasy (i'm obsessed with those books😭)
judging by her other reads I think she may of thought it was heavily romance driven which it very well wasn't. I think thats what distinguishes the love and the hate for this trilogy.
Yeah same I'm obsessed with the series, in my opinion it flowed really well and i loved the slow burn of enemies to lovers
riiight?! maybe faeries (folklore) isn't really her thing because she didn't love Emily Wilde's
folk of air is the LITERAL BLUEPRINT for enemies to lovers. idk if anyone could do it better. and the character development and world building is immaculate!! (also im still surprised that i never knew the 🐍 part hahahaaa)
i read tcp in 2019 but didn't continue for some reason and recently read them all and LOVVVED THEM!! 😌💜
The fact that Haley also had books fall in her video 😆 hilarious
12:15 “I’ll Stop the World… I should’ve stopped reading this book.” HELPPPP OMGGG 😂😂😂😂😂
I HAVE NEVER BEEN HAPPIER, THANK U DESTINY, FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART.
Her short sentences were so good! Great descriptions, but nothing too detailed considering it's a yearly wrap up. Love the way she talks about books!🥰
Des will forever be the ONLY person I trust with ratings. She and I just have the same taste and tend to rate books very similarly. Finally a person that feels the same way I do about Mile High. Just couldn’t read it and DIDN’T like the guy even though I tried repeatedly to get the hype.
Happy New Year!!!! Thank you so much for being such a major part of my 2023!!! Hoping 2024 is a great reading year for you!!! Love you so much!!! 🫶🏻✨
I love the little shoutout to Jack, he's the goat! The blueprint!
Happy new years Destiny! I've been becoming a book girly because of you, Sara, and Haley! I cant wait to see you and more books in 2024 :))
Best start to the year!!! 🩷 Happy 2024 bestie Destiny! 🎉💌☁️

I’m so impressed with your reviews. They to me are more honest then some reviewers. It seems to me like you don’t follow what’s trending from other reviewers. I love that!! Just subscribed!🥰
this video is chefs kiss!! so excited for what 2024 has in store for you 🥹🫶🏼
Loved the video!!! Happy new year bestie!!!!🎉🎉
such a great vid! added a few to my tbr. the 2.5 stars of ninth house and dnf of secret history back to back physically hurt me.
Best way to start the new year!
i need more of these. this was perfect for my attention span.
Happy New Year Destiny!🎉. I have been looking forward to your videos😊❤️. I hope you have a good reading year!💕
Intro to the video was 💯🤩 Loved this!!! Happy New Year!!!🎉☺️
Happy new year Destiny! ❤
I loved your intro, the book stacking. I imagine it took forever to edit. I take everything you say to heart. I wanted to read some books you gave 1 or 2 stars, and now I won’t. So thank you. And lastly I couldn’t agree with you more about Iron Flame!
You are my favourite book tuber and wen I'm bord Iwatch your old videos. Ilysm and a happy new year😍😍
YESSS best way to start the day/new year :)
The wait is finally over!!!🧡
best thing to wake up to in the new year !!
I am currently doing a tandem read of EOS and TOD. That helps keep it more fast paced. But I’m loving TOD vs EOS. I CANNOT believe I waited this long to read the TOD series. I will jump into CC in February or so.
This stimulates my brain in the best way
Loved the one sentence reviews 🥰🥰
Happy nee years des!!! I got so many books based off this video🤣
This was the perfect amount of info per book. Love
My favorite part of January other then tbr vid
ahhh so happy to see this video!!!
Honestly I loved this.
The wait is over
your editing skills…just wow des
I was waiting for this videooooo!💗💗💗
I agree loved Sven year Slip!!!💛🤍✨
I love that you’re true to your point about Check & Mate not being a YA
I love you so much thank you for being an older sister to watch 💕
Thank you for doing this vid i absolutely love you, I have added a few new books to my tbr in 2024. Thank you!! For addressing that iron flame took the L of the year because it literally put me in a reading slump so I dnf it, but people are telling me to finish it, so I’m still debating
i love your videos so much!!!!!!
You gave me so many recs for my 2024 tbr 😊❤
I love your earrings Destiny!! def making a Huge tbr list!
Oh my gosh, Red Rising is one of my fave series EVER!
Thank god you posted 😭
i love the editing in this video.🌟💌
This amount of books is crazy impressive
It’s so crazy how different opinions can be. You loved The Last Word and one of my other favorite booktubers really did not like it and gave it 1 star. I loved Then She Was Gone, even though I guessed the plot within the first several chapters I still ate it up and gave it 5 stars, yes it was heartbreaking but so good. And Iron Flame I’m just obsessed with the world and characters so it’s a 5 star for me even though I did not like the ending and am still heartbroken. 😅
this video made my ADD brain very happy !
I recommend these:
Keep Your Friends Close by Niki Keith
Crush by Niki Keith
Dating Santa's Son by Nicole Mullaney
Unforgettable Series by Nikki A. Lamers (6 books in the series)
Breaking Cycles (spin-off for the Unforgettable Series) by Nikki A. Lamers
Check & Mate is categorised as New Adult on Goodreads.
Love the ‘when he punches you in the face’ (heir of fire)
you bring such a comfort to me that i cannot describe des, thank you for being you 🥹
I was about to go to bed (ya girl is Australian), but Destiny uploaded a video 💅🏻 it’d be rude not to
We read similar books this year and share similar opinions. Happy New Year Destiny.❤
This was a lot of fun!
so many good reads in 2023!! i just finished acofas and wondered if you’re planning on posting your other read through videos for the rest of the series?
LOVE THIS VIDEO
