- Hi book besties
I recently came to the conclusion that I've read a decent amount of popular booktok books and I decided it would be fun to let you know which of them are worth it and which are not. Disclaimer: these are just my opinions and books are subjective! Nothing against the authors who wrote the books I didn't enjoy.
Let me know if you've read any of these and if you enjoyed them or not!
Happy reading
Lots of love
Sarah

If you're in the mood for really good romance books. I highly recommend Abby Jimenez! The Part Of Your World series is soooooo lovely. They are interconnected stand alones, "Yours Truly" and "Just For The Summer" are two of my favourite romance books of all time. The characters are so
Oh my goodness YESSS I’ve been wanting to read her books!! I’ve heard such good things about her writing 🥹🥰🥰
i'm OBSESSED with your content! keep thriving, I love your energy and your voice is so soothing ♡
TALIA I LOVE YOU!! Thank you so much!! This comment made me so happy 🥹🥰
Added more books to my tbr ✨️ I trust your opinion on books so now I know which ones to check out and which ones to avoid 🙈 this was very helpful Sarah ❤
Thank you Poppy🙏🏼🥰🥰 learn from my mistakes and avoid the books that aren’t worth it 🤣❤️
The most annoying thing about Spanish love deception was the amount of times she said “his blue eyes” “blue gaze” “ocean eyes” like damn i get it his eyes are blue😭 but i was looking for something very basic so i just went for it
Yes! There’s reason the ACOTAR series is so popular! The author is really good at foreshadowing, I agree!! Now I just need to push through her TOG series. Just started Queen of Shadows and now excited to jump right into now that you mentioned you love it. Guess that’s my sign❤
Chapter 54 in ACOMAF is everything to me 🥹🥰 omggg I LOVED Queen of shadows!! So excited for you!! Are you enjoying TOG so far?? X
@@SarahsCozyCorner yes!! Chapter 54 still replays in my mind even months after 🥹 TBH, I haven’t jumped into Queen of Shadows just yet because I’ve been hooked on Lady of Darkness (on KU). You may really enjoy it as it’s giving TOG vibes! Really enjoying this series so far as it reminds me of everything I love about TOG and ACOTAR😍❤️
I absolutely LOVE Powerless,it's my favorite book ever. It was very lovely to read and Lauren Roberts writing wasn't hard to understand which i love. I have the same taste in books as you so i will definitely take your book advice,love you! x
Powerless was a perfect fantasy romance!! It had some of my fav ball scenes 😍so glad we have such similar taste!!
Thanks so much for your videos Sarah! I will def try some of these!( i put them on my now never ending TBR ) I love books and it always makes me happy seeing other people feeling the same :) keep going!
your videos give me a boost of serotonin
WHAT A COMPLIMENT THANK YOU🥹❤️❤️
@@SarahsCozyCorner LOVE YOUU
It seems like we have starkly different tastes 😭
As long we are both happy reading that’s all that matters 🥰🫶🏼
❤📚 Loved the video! I read Circe and loved it! I need to get Song of Achilles. Thank you for reviewing. My least favorite things in books are "spice" and overuse of "f" bomb. I'll pass on Fourth Wing now, and read something I'll love more (hopefully). 😊 oh gosh...got Good Girls Guide to Muder Trilogy for my birthday, April 3rd!
Yayyy good to hear!! Will definitely need to pick Circe up 😍 I’m so glad I’m not alone in hating the over use of the F bomb and overly lusty books 🙅🏻♀️ woohoo! What a great birthday gift!! 😍
@@SarahsCozyCorner Thank you! My hubby is the best.🤗 ❤️📚
I love your content! This video has been so helpful 😊
Thank you so much!! I’m so glad! 🥹🥰
I agree with pretty much all your thoughts on the ones I’ve read, haha we have such similar taste!! Loved ACOTAR, AGGGTM, SoC, Addie LaRue, TJR in general, Divine Rivals, and also did really enjoy It Ends With Us and Verity even though I’m not a big Colleen Hoover fan. Did not love The Atlas Six either but I did love Fourth Wing! And lots here that I want to read, except The Spanish Love Deception, Icebreaker, and Ugly Love 😂
I think we may be book soul sisters haha our taste is so SIMILAR!! I lvoe that 🥹🥰🥰🥰 definitely stay as far away from Ugly love, Spanish love deception and ice breaker 🤣😅
@@SarahsCozyCorner haha I know right?! So fun!! ❤️ Noted, they weren’t high on my TBR at all and now they’re even further down, as in not on it 😂
I’ll never shut up about agggtm and six of crows. They were so good 😭 also I’m reading two really hyped up books and I don’t think they are for me lol (if we were villains and the midnight library)
ME TOO HAHHA, they are iconic books!! Oooo is if we were villains not worth the hype?? I’ve heard the midnight library is kind of like a self help booked masquerading as a fiction book hahah
@@SarahsCozyCorner yeah if we were villains was not for me, I’m not super familiar with Shakespeare and so I missed the innuendos but the plot was a bit predictable… OOP 😶 the midnight library has been a bit boring, double OOP 😶
Thanks for posting this video. YT needs more videos like these
Thank you so much! 🥰
Thank you for this video because I always trust your opinion because I think like you😊
Thank you very much!!
You know what? Im gonna add all the books you told are worth the time, cuz i just TOTALLY love your reviews and agree with them.
Thats the first song of achilles cover ive seen like that and i love our OUABH covers here in the US but im still jealous of the other versions😫
Yeah I don’t see that cover alot in videos!! I think it’s the UK one🤔🤔 I love all covers of OUABH!! The prettiest covers 😍
Love your videos ❤
Thank you 🥰🥰
I felt the exact same about fourth wing + the dragons in it hahah
Glad we are on the same page 🤝🏼🤝🏼🫶🏼
I completely agree with you on Powerless, i really enjoyed the banter but couldn't really get into the first few pages. the dual povs made it difficult for me because they felt repetitive. but it's a great romantasy nonetheless. but i wouldn’t rate it 5 stars unfortunately 😅
I would recommend you to read elena armas 2nd book of this series it's much muvh better then this one atleast for me as i read the the spenish love deception i liked it too much until i read her 2nd book the American roommate experiment its not too much Smut tbh it not even smut but the way they have shown the character and everything that was just beautiful i would love if you read that book ❤
I soo agree with you about Fourth wing
I’ve added Seven Year Slip Evelyn Hugo Divine Rivals and Magnolia Parks series to my TBR. I DNF the ACOTAR series just couldn’t get into it I think Throne series was more enjoyable Also DNF Fourth Wing but might pick it back up at some point. Enjoyed Powerless a lot pre ordered Reckless. Enjoyed the vlog😊
i love the way you talk about books💕
Thank you so much 🥹🥰
I DNFed Fourth Wing so I agree with your opinion. It’s a bit overrated 😅
You were smart to DNF it 🤣😅 I honestly can’t believe how popular it is
@@SarahsCozyCorner yeah I don’t understand the hype
I loved Acotar series, Divine Rivals, six of crows. Im reading Heir of fire right now and have obly 140 pages ledt and it is so good. I tought Icebreaker and the serpent and the wings of night were good
I love your accent
Thank you!! 🥰
4:12 bro, i love that you said that, i was waiting for anyone to point it out. 😂
I DNF’d Serpent too. I just couldn’t get into it. It felt silly.
Love this video! Do you have a good reads?
Love your videos! Do you have goodreads? X
You are so lovely ❤
Thank you!! You are 🥹🥰
if u didnt like fourth wing something is actually wrong with you 😭
Yeah, I DNFed serpent too. Could not understand the “hype.”🫠🫠
I KNOW!! Genuinely how did it get so hyped!! People were saying it was similar to ACOTAR 🤣 it’s absolutely not
For me Icebreaker was the worst book I’ve ever read- spice with no plot, unlikable main character (Anastasia), unnecessarily long…. No I really hated it
However I’d like to say that the second book in the series (Wildfire) was really good and I really enjoyed it since it was less spicy and there was a lot going on
I was very scared going into the book after how bad Icebreaker was but it just proved me wrong
So that’s just a recommendation for someone who doesn’t want to give up on the series even though they didn’t like Icebreaker 🫶🫶
O my goodness YES I thought Anastasia was insufferable!! That book sucked 🤣 oh yayy!! I have heard wildfire is not as smutty and more likeable characters so I may give it a go in the near future! 🥰
@@SarahsCozyCornerI wanted Anastasia to be hit by a car so bad 😂.
Definitely give Wildfire a try though ❤
