    I don't need to worry about bringing books to college because I'm still going to be living at home. But if I was going far away I'd need to take all my books with me,I'd feel bad leaving them in my room all by themselves! :P

    I honestly can't imagine what the Throne of Glass series would look like now, if they didn't have a cover change.

      +Juan Castillo the one with the girl and the dagger?

    • @rawrxd9559
      @rawrxd9559 9 років тому

      yes!

    • @CooleenBooks
      @CooleenBooks 9 років тому +3

      Juan Castillo That's such a cool fact. I remember when I met Sarah J Maas, and I couldn't help but see the resemblance between her and Celaena. Even personality wise, they were kind of similar :D

      @rachelhesketh94 8 років тому

      +Gothy Witchy It wasn't in mine! But then again mine is kinda small, although pretty much that happened with ACOTAR- I went to check when it was coming out but ended up getting it from the backstore and it was signed even though it was at least 20 days before it was due to come out!
      I pre-ordered mine from the website, but sometimes my Waterstones pre-order deliveries are a bit temperamental, some will come a few days before it's out publicly,, sometimes I get it a day after or on the day of release, or it takes 4/5 days to ship!

    • @rachelhesketh94
      @rachelhesketh94 8 років тому

      Up in Greater Manchester, but I asked the cashier today when I was in that pre-ordered books are sent from the warehouse rather than your nearest shop, so I could be getting mine around the release date, it's only a few more days until it's out though, I'll cope! :P

  • @StarsAndEmbers
    @StarsAndEmbers 9 років тому +3

    I hope you have the best time at college! I'm kinda glad I didn't have to do this when I started university. At most Australian unis you don't live on campus, so I'm at home with my parents and all of my books.

  • @MissyLovesToRead

    @jenvm1010 9 років тому +2

    Hey Sasha! Just wanted to share something with you. I'm about to be a junior in college now..but I was/am an avid reader (reading 12-15 books a month) but when I entered college for the first time, that quickly changed. It would be months and I hadn't read a book! I hope you aren't too hard on yourself with reading because the transition from high school to college is difficult and you will be sooo busy and the days will just fly by! Enjoy college life and I hope you thrive as a college student.. Just don't be too strict with yourself and focus on having fun! :)

    I agree. Throne of Glass. Best covers ever. I have them in hardcover and they do look beautiful on my shelf. They are one of the few books where it's ok to keep the dustjacket on.

    I also recently read The Kiss Of Deception because you mentioned it in one of your videos and I LOVED it! Thanks so much for giving such great recommendations Sasha! You're one of my all time favourite booktubers

    I just moved into my dorm room today. and I brought substantially less booms than you're bringing. I am bringing my favorite book On Dublin Street by Samantha Young, then some of my tbr paperbacks Amber to Ashes, Flawed, Leaving Amarillo, Echoes of Scotland Street, Going too Far and Where Things Come Back. for a grand total of 7 books.
