books I want to read in 2022 (tbr) and a lil book haul!! ⭐️girlypop merch: haleypham.com main channel: / sodapop738 instagram: / haleypham Goodreads: / 137657144
if you’re having a hard time getting through pride and prejudice like i did, watch the 2005 movie of it first then read. the movie is absolutely stunning in the cinematography, musical score and costumes. i really fell in love with the characters and thus when i read the book everything made so much more sense.
Totally agree. Sometimes with classics it helps to know roughly what is happening. (I love Jane Austen’s books, but it does sometimes take a bit of time to get into a classical book’s way of writing)
Literally what I'm doing right now. I tried the few times to get into pride and prejudice but never did, then recently I watched the movie and it inspired me to attempt to read it again and I'm loving it
i highly recommend all of karen mcmanus! i've loved all her books except for one of us is next (which is kind of a sequel to one of us is lying and i thought it was pretty forgettable and unnecessary)
Throne of glass is so incredibly good. There’s a ton of world building and the characters are so well developed throughout the series. It gets a tiny tiny bit spicy in the later books but nothing compared to ACOTAR. Easy to skip over. Highly recommended. My all time favorite series
Girlie same. I read the series last summer and it is what really got me into reading books. My favorite series to this day so I was so happy when she said she liked it
video ideas : - waking up at 5am for a week - reading vlog : verity - reading a complete series for a 24 hours - reading outside for 24 hours - READING VLOGSS
@@mariak7427 i really enjoyed the style of writing, felt like a cool documentary! also i was actually hooked in the story and the author did rlly good storytelling even with the dialouge. if you dont want to read that style of book i rlly recommend the audiobook, its a better mediam for it :)
I absolutely love the ACOTAR and the Throne of Glass series, TOG is a more PG version of the two but there still are some sassy scenes. If you want to read her books you do have to be okay with reading those sassy scenes.
If you don’t mind me asking, what’s the appeal of the ACOTAR and the TOG series? I heard mediocre reviews about them so I’m a bit hesitant to read them. I hope I don’t come across as malicious-sounding, I am just genuinely curious.
@@jennypark4906 s.j maas is a pure genius in world building. The characters are so complex, lovely with these tragic, sad background that you want and have to love them. The whole story is fantastic with lots of twists ( no brain function after some of them). It’s really hard to describe. I didn’t want to read the series because of the hype, didn’t think the were worth it. BUT I was soooo wrong. Every second was Chefs kiss, did reread acotar two times because it’s just my comfort place. Give it a try. If you don’t like it, it’s absolutely fine. But in my opinion you can just win if you try it
@@ivonnkinder9285 omg exactly I also didn't wanna read it at all cause of the hype. But then I read it after a long time and I loved it. They are the longest books I've ever read but so worth it. (It is kinda slow in the beginning, or at least I found it difficult to keep reading, but after you get to a certain point you just can't stop). I will say I don't really love the third book, tho. But the series as a whole: amazing.
@@livia9148 I’m currently on the second book ACOMAF and it’s taken me so long to finish it like once I read it I’m into it but when I have to put it down it’s hard for me to get back into it
The Throne of Glass series is so so good! I read half of “Throne of Glass” before finding out that “The Assassin’s Blade” takes place before, so I definitely recommend reading that book first :)
I actually recommend reading The Assassin's Blade later in the series. I personally read it before the final book. Although it is the prequel to Throne of Glass, it contains a few shorter stories on Celaena's life before the rest of the series, which you will appreciate much more when you are already involved in the character. It doesn't do the book justice if you read it without context.
If you don’t read The Infernal Devices you’re missing out HALEY. The best trilogy I’ve read or series or book and it’s a fantasy romance that focuses more on an amazing love triangle. Plus the main characters love reading and it’s in the late 1800s (Also not spicy) Cassandra Clare has amazing books in this genre. 📚
I desperately need to pick up the entire series and the different series that Cassandra Clare has written I loved watching the show a few years ago and have rewatched it many times I think it’s time not to read the books but I’m slowly getting into reading again after so many years
The Selection series by Kiera Cass is definitely my favorite YA fantasy romance and they’re working on the netflix movie (also i’m pretty sure the author is christian and the romance is clean)
would it be considered fantasy?? id say royal... i saw that book everywhere in middle school and picked it up fall 2021 but the second book half way through ughhh
I love how it feels like me and Haley go through hobbies at the same time , like I remember the high school videos then I started working out and she did too and now with the books. I love that her content is always relatable to me. Also, read Little Women fav book of all time.
throne of glass is pg especially in the first several books, there’s hardly even kissing or hugging scenes in the beginning and even later in the series it’s mainly fade to black! i love throne of glass and i think you will too haley! cant wait to see what you think :)
I would definitely recommend Red queen the series! the plot is so good and the book keeps getting better as you go, and I can't forget my favorite series The inheritance games, it is genuinely greattttttt.
i get so excited when you post a new video!! i could listen you talk about books for litteraly hours!! excited to know what you think about the books, especially a few that I have already read 🥰❤
I would consider Anne of Green Gables an academic rivals to lovers plus it is a super readable classic that might help get used to classics. It's tied for my favorite book of all time. highly recommend!!!
I love Anne of Green Gables! If you want a recommendation, the same author also wrote Emily of New Moon. It's a trilogy and its really underrated. I loved it and it's a really good YA trilogy.
ahhh i just finished reading the caraval series it was actually so good !! i could not put it down and read it in like 3 days im so excited that youre gonna read it after this too like perfect timing !!
I totally recommend the Dance of Thieves duology!! It's YA fantasy with romance, adventure, and more! Renegades is also a really good YA series with superheroes that is sort of dystopian/fantasy with a really cute romance as well.
Pride and Prejudice was also my first ever classic that I read this year and it took me literally 14 days to read cause it's extremely slow paced but I committed to it regardless and I must say I am satisfied. I gave it 3.5 out of 5 stars.
Throne of Glass is the series that got me back into reading, so I highly recommend! I didn't love ACOTAR as much personally, but they each have a very strong following for a reason. Throne of Glass does have some spicy scenes but they don't happen too often and are easily skippable, so I think you should be fine! A few of the books in that series are still on my top fav books list even after years, so I think its at least worth the shot. I even went to SJM's book tour for the last book's release because I loved the series so much. :)
these violent delights is AMAZING! it was my first read of this year and it deserves all the hype it has. great characters. great plot. great romantic aspects, too. im actually reading the second book right now, and i am so prepared to cry😭
finally someone who also judges books by their covers!! i literally started reading harry potter after 21 years just because i found an edition with the nicest cover and now im obsessed!!
Alex Approximately is SO GOOD. I honestly almost screamed when you showed it cause I love it THAT much. I hope you like it. Same with Today, Tonight, Tomorrow! It’s really good!
Ah I love that you're getting into fantasy!! I would still recommend ACOTAR because the spicy scenes aren't that frequent and can easily be skipped over. I also highly recommend dance of thieves because it is an incredible YA fantasy romance! I also love love love the infernal devices and last hours trilogies by Cassandra Clare! They are top notch fantasy romance books 💕
I’m here for Hailey’s book content in 2022! One of my favorite books in 2021 was The Ex Talk by Rachel Lynn Solomon. I did not know the author had other books published, I’m gonna look into that 👀
Legend is sooo good! I read the series last year, the first one is differently my favourite and the third ripped my heart out. I also live for Not here to be Liked. Honestly super amazing, it has diverse characters and talks about real life issues.
If you’re planning to continue reading fantasy books with romance, I recommend the Infernal devices trilogy…..it’s high fantasy with a really good romance. Also ONE OF US IS LYING IS ON MY TBR FOR THIS YEAR TOO!
I loved The Poppy War series!! I was not really into fantasy books but that series definitely got me hooked. I also just finished These Violent Delights and wow…I was in awe.
I’m so glad you liked The Cruel Prince! I started reading last summer at around the same time as you and this was the series that really got me into reading again. Wasn’t expecting you to like it since it’s fantasy but I’m glad you did because it’s my favorite series of all time and it breaks my heart every time it gets hate lol
HALEY YOU HAVE ME PUMPED FOR READING THIS YEAR!! I already got two books done with for 2022 and I have to say if you end up liking All the bright places I just read Holding up the universe SOOO GOOD! It’s a YA romance! I just bought Once Upon a Broken Heart and had no idea it was linked to Caraval so now I need to buy that series too which I already wanted 😂😭 ooo can you please post when you’ll read the Crave series I have the same three books you do and I also don’t know if you know but there’s two more books coming out this year Charm and Covet
You’ll LOVE the infernal devices. It’s a YA fantasy romance and focuses on romance the most. It made me sob and is the best series I have ever read !!!🙂 it’s not spicy but a beautiful love triangle romance of people who love reading and has the best developed love story I’ve read.
All The Bright Places was the most heart breaking book I’ve ever read! It was my favorite book until I read Breathless by the same author. It’s one of those summer type books that takes place on an island over summer vacation. Could not recommend either enough times! Jennifer Niven is the best!
Legendborn by Tracy Deonn is YA fantasy with a romance subplot and it’s so good!! highly recommend if you’re just getting into that genre. the second book comes out later this year too 💗
uhh i love ur book vids. A book video recommendation to record and give us book tips. Like how to get back into reading and a little rundown of how to like reading again and maybe even how to read more books in a month or however long. 💗
the seven husbands of evelyn hugo was definitely my favourite read of 2021 (and probably one of my all time favourites), definitely read it if you haven’t already heh
I SCREAMED The Masterpiece by Francine Rivers definitely recommend:) so happy you're reading it!! it is a romance book that gave me goosebumps. It's about a male artist who is going through life and has had enough of it so one day a single mother who is a believer gets hired as his personal assistant and the story goes on... It's not a cliche book in fact it is far from it and it is so perfect. I don't want to give too much away. I mean it's Francine Rivers the one who wrote redeeming love. So Good. I FINISHED IT SO FAST
I'm reading the Throne of Glass series at the moment and loving it! Some of my favourite reads last year were Lovely War, An Ember in the Ashes and Chain of Gold and Chain of Iron from the Shadowhunter chronicles
some of my favorites books i read in 2021 were: Chain of Gold by Cassandra Clare & Chain of Iron by Cassandra Clare House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J Maas Firekeeper's Daughter by Angeline Boulley And although i definitely had others these were the ones i rated 5 stars, definitely worth checking out.
The crave series are so good. People are always comparing them with twilight but they are so different (in a good way). In the first book, yeah, they do have a lot in common but when you get to the second one, they are so different. The second book is *chef kiss*. I recommend them so much!!!
These Violent Delights is sooo good! I also really liked Throne of Glass! The rest of these books I’ve definitely heard amazing things about so I think you’ll be in good hands!
Hi, Haley I highly recommend you to read “Truly Devious” series, I read it yesterday and this sooo good, perfect mix of mystery problem solving+romance😍
I’m adding all of these books to my reading list, thanks for sharing! 💫 Keep rising to be who you want to be! 💫 #keeprising #risingtobe #aswerise #riser
I absolutely bawled when reading All the Bright Places. I have to say the film was a bit of a let down! One of Us is Lying has a sequel book which is also very good! And when it comes to Sally Rooney, I read Normal People and it took a bit of time to get into because she writes without speech marks. It's also the first book I've read which is more character focussed rather than plot based. All of that being said though, I loved it and I've just started watching the tv adaptation!
YAAAS ur reading tog, its so good!! the world building and all i thought it was really well done, and u literally will get soo attached to the characters!!! and there is just a bit spicy scenes but u can skip it if u want
the to all the boys i've loved before by jenny han is such a good series! the netflix movies I think are more popular than the books but they are hands down my favorite. also the false prince series by jennifer a. nielsen is also amazing if you like fantasy at all
caraval is soooo good so far. i’m still reading the rest of the series but the first book was AMAZING. the romance was such a good subplot and the plot line was extremely interesting.the character development was really strong and i really think you’d enjoy the series, i have to five stars too!!
Infernal devices is a YA fantasy that focuses in a love triangle romance and two of them love reading. I think this series is perfect fo you!! The trilogy is my favourite and they made me cry more than any other
If you're looking for more YA / Mystery, Karen McManus is great for that! Since 2018 she's published 5 books - the One of us is Lying series (which you have) and three standalones - The Cousins, You'll Be the Death of Me, and Two Can Keep a Secret!! They aren't the most complex mysteries and sometimes the characters feel simplistic, but they are fun short mysteries that you can read in one sitting :) Be aware of the sequel to One of us is Lying (titled One of Us is Next) - it is WAY worse than One of us is Lying LOL, but the stand alone novels are good!
What 🥲 I rated one of us next 5/5 and one of us is lying 3/5. The representation was SO much better, the character development was better and I felt the characters were actually payed attention to by the author. Just my opinion tho. Each to their own ig 🤷🏻♀️
@@beansontoast8819 agreed, the characters were more fleshed out in the sequel! I find a common problem in McManus's books is that other than the protagonist and love interest, we don't get much info or personality from any other characters. However, I found the mystery component in one of us is next to be way weaker, less shocking, and less believable than in the original
@@isabelnelson6875 yep I do think that if I weren’t attached to the characters the mystery wouldn’t have interested me as much as one of us is lying. But I found it less predictable than one of us is lying still bc I didn’t figure it out and wasn’t expecting the cliffhanger
I just recently got back into reading, but was discouraged after trying a few things and liking none of them, but this made me want to try again!!! I’m so excited now and I added most of these to my own TBR list 🥰🥰🥰
i definitely recommend the red queen series if u like cruel prince! it’s got the same kinda vibes and is honestly so good!! idk how to explain it without spoiling aha
if you’re having a hard time getting through pride and prejudice like i did, watch the 2005 movie of it first then read. the movie is absolutely stunning in the cinematography, musical score and costumes. i really fell in love with the characters and thus when i read the book everything made so much more sense.
Totally agree. Sometimes with classics it helps to know roughly what is happening. (I love Jane Austen’s books, but it does sometimes take a bit of time to get into a classical book’s way of writing)
Literally what I'm doing right now. I tried the few times to get into pride and prejudice but never did, then recently I watched the movie and it inspired me to attempt to read it again and I'm loving it
Thank you for the advice! I just recently bought pride and prejudice and was worried I wouldn’t like it.
Hope you enjoy!
Thank God I found your comment! I literally felt the same right now while reading pride and prejudice.
i loved one of us is lying!! 👏🏼
wow haha funny to see you here
i highly recommend all of karen mcmanus! i've loved all her books except for one of us is next (which is kind of a sequel to one of us is lying and i thought it was pretty forgettable and unnecessary)
Really? I actually didn't really like it... The ending was so underwhelming and guessable...
Good for you that you guessed the ending wow
@@claireelizabeth6970 sorry to ask but is the second book named? i wanna read it too
Throne of glass is so incredibly good. There’s a ton of world building and the characters are so well developed throughout the series. It gets a tiny tiny bit spicy in the later books but nothing compared to ACOTAR. Easy to skip over. Highly recommended. My all time favorite series
same, i love tog so so much too
Not me literally screaming when she talked about ACOTAR and Throne of Glass! I’m so excited for her to read this.
acotar! yesssss
Shadowhunter books also have really in depth worlds and characters if you’re looking for a similar vibe !!
Im currently reading Tower of Down and I’m definitely not ready for it to end
The cruel prince is one of my favorite series of ALL TIME. I still think about Jude and Cardan years later after reading it.
Girlie same. I read the series last summer and it is what really got me into reading books. My favorite series to this day so I was so happy when she said she liked it
Books and characters like that are the best ☺️
Same! It’s so good! 😭😍

@@mariak7427 i really enjoyed the style of writing, felt like a cool documentary! also i was actually hooked in the story and the author did rlly good storytelling even with the dialouge. if you dont want to read that style of book i rlly recommend the audiobook, its a better mediam for it :)

so true :). tho you can skip the scenes in TOG Haley if you want to, there are just a lot less of them than in acotar
If you don’t mind me asking, what’s the appeal of the ACOTAR and the TOG series? I heard mediocre reviews about them so I’m a bit hesitant to read them. I hope I don’t come across as malicious-sounding, I am just genuinely curious.

PLEASE I LOVE THOSE BOOKS SO MUCH they are my everything since i was like in middle school
I desperately need to pick up the entire series and the different series that Cassandra Clare has written I loved watching the show a few years ago and have rewatched it many times I think it’s time not to read the books but I’m slowly getting into reading again after so many years
WILL HERONDALE AND JAMES CARSTAIRS ARE FOREVER IN MY HEART
My favorite series ever and nothing lives up to it sadly 😢
you definitely need to read the “an ember in the ashes” series!!! it’s a great YA fantasy with romance and thrill
An ember in the ashes was so good, I still think about it
YES my favorite YA novel!
Yes it’s one of the best and most underrated series
Yessss Helene is my fav character
I think she already read it
The Selection series by Kiera Cass is definitely my favorite YA fantasy romance and they’re working on the netflix movie (also i’m pretty sure the author is christian and the romance is clean)
i read the entire series in a week and this was when i hated books with romance. I don't know what it is with those books but they are so good.
The Betrothed Series by her is also pretty awesome.
Okay, I thought it was gonna be a middle school series when I read it but it was actually so good! It is what restarted my major book obsession
would it be considered fantasy?? id say royal... i saw that book everywhere in middle school and picked it up fall 2021 but the second book half way through ughhh
The selection is dystopian YA romance
I love how it feels like me and Haley go through hobbies at the same time , like I remember the high school videos then I started working out and she did too and now with the books. I love that her content is always relatable to me. Also, read Little Women fav book of all time.
Today, Tonight, Tomorrow is so incredibly good. it was one of the first romance novels i’ve read and i desperately want a second book 😩
the infernal devices trilogy by cassandra clare is one of the best ya fantasy romance series
YES i reread it like, every year and cry at Clockwork Princess every time 😭
Can you read the infernal devices trilogy even if you haven’t read any of the other Cassandra series?
@@sophierose1225 yes i think so! I havent read the original mortal instruments in years but i reread TID really often

YES YES YES!!!!!
throne of glass is pg especially in the first several books, there’s hardly even kissing or hugging scenes in the beginning and even later in the series it’s mainly fade to black! i love throne of glass and i think you will too haley! cant wait to see what you think :)
I read the Caraval series last year and I was in LOVE. It’s a mix of mystery, a lot of romance, and fantasy. Highly recommend.
I would definitely recommend Red queen the series! the plot is so good and the book keeps getting better as you go, and I can't forget my favorite series The inheritance games, it is genuinely greattttttt.

The Series of Unfortunate Events is such a good series! I highly recommend you read it. It has characters that you like and it’s just awesome.

omg I love Anne of green gables
yes, the whole series is incredible!
One of my favorite books of all time. Sweet & wholesome, makes you feel good!
I love Anne of Green Gables! If you want a recommendation, the same author also wrote Emily of New Moon. It's a trilogy and its really underrated. I loved it and it's a really good YA trilogy.
legend by marie lu is so good!! was obsessed with it in middle school and still re-read it to this day
ahhh i just finished reading the caraval series it was actually so good !! i could not put it down and read it in like 3 days im so excited that youre gonna read it after this too like perfect timing !!
I totally recommend the Dance of Thieves duology!! It's YA fantasy with romance, adventure, and more! Renegades is also a really good YA series with superheroes that is sort of dystopian/fantasy with a really cute romance as well.
The red queen series by Victoria Aveyard is good! All of Cassandra Clare books are great too!
yes it’s one of my fav series!
Yes! I love Victoria Aveyard, but since I own the German version I'm not sure if I'm loving it bc of the translators or her writing style
That’s my favorite series right now. Are the rest of the books in the series just as good as the first?
YES CASSANDRA CLARE
YES
Pride and Prejudice was also my first ever classic that I read this year and it took me literally 14 days to read cause it's extremely slow paced but I committed to it regardless and I must say I am satisfied. I gave it 3.5 out of 5 stars.
Conversation with Friends is my favorite Sally book!!! All the Bright places is great! I met Jennifer and she’s such a sweetheart!!!
The masterpiece is sooo good. Its a little slow in the beginning but then you get hooked! Love your book videos!
The Caraval series is so so good AND ONCE UPON A BROKEN HEART? ITS BRILLIANT.
Throne of Glass is the series that got me back into reading, so I highly recommend! I didn't love ACOTAR as much personally, but they each have a very strong following for a reason.

If you want fantasy romance with a little less spice, I recommend the Shatter Me series. I was OBSESSED with them in middle school and high school.
i’m reading ignite me rn :) love the series!
these violent delights is AMAZING! it was my first read of this year and it deserves all the hype it has. great characters. great plot. great romantic aspects, too. im actually reading the second book right now, and i am so prepared to cry😭

I’m so happy you’re planning on reading so many I have read!! I can’t wait to see what you think of themmm

I also highly recommend dance of thieves because it is an incredible YA fantasy romance!
I also love love love the infernal devices and last hours trilogies by Cassandra Clare! They are top notch fantasy romance books 💕

You’ll LOVE the infernal devices. It’s a YA fantasy romance and focuses on romance the most. It made me sob and is the best series I have ever read !!!🙂 it’s not spicy but a beautiful love triangle romance of people who love reading and has the best developed love story I’ve read.
Haley you are going to LOVE today, tonight, tomorrow! It’s one of my faves!
I literally love watching these 😭 i literally followed most of your socials to keep up with you
All The Bright Places was the most heart breaking book I’ve ever read! It was my favorite book until I read Breathless by the same author. It’s one of those summer type books that takes place on an island over summer vacation. Could not recommend either enough times! Jennifer Niven is the best!
The Renegades trilogy by Marissa Meyer is my favorite series ever!!! I would always recommend that series to anyone.
the folk of air series (the cruel prince series) is ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITES im so glad you liked it!!
all the bright places and throne of glass are incredible!! ive never cried reading also but balled reading all the bright places it was amazing
I just finished These Violent Delights and ahhhh it’s soo good!! Hope you enjoy! 💗💗
Legendborn by Tracy Deonn is YA fantasy with a romance subplot and it’s so good!! highly recommend if you’re just getting into that genre. the second book comes out later this year too 💗
I second this! Couldn't put the book down.
That book pulled me out of my reading slump, can’t wait for the second one 😁😁
uhh i love ur book vids. A book video recommendation to record and give us book tips. Like how to get back into reading and a little rundown of how to like reading again and maybe even how to read more books in a month or however long. 💗
Throne of glass is literally amazing it will have you in tears
the seven husbands of evelyn hugo was definitely my favourite read of 2021 (and probably one of my all time favourites), definitely read it if you haven’t already heh
yes yes yes!!!!! THIS BOOK!!!
I SCREAMED The Masterpiece by Francine Rivers definitely recommend:) so happy you're reading it!! it is a romance book that gave me goosebumps. It's about a male artist who is going through life and has had enough of it so one day a single mother who is a believer gets hired as his personal assistant and the story goes on... It's not a cliche book in fact it is far from it and it is so perfect. I don't want to give too much away. I mean it's Francine Rivers the one who wrote redeeming love. So Good. I FINISHED IT SO FAST
I'm reading the Throne of Glass series at the moment and loving it! Some of my favourite reads last year were Lovely War, An Ember in the Ashes and Chain of Gold and Chain of Iron from the Shadowhunter chronicles
Omg I am so glad you liked the folk of the air triology. It's my fav series to ever exist!!!!!!
some of my favorites books i read in 2021 were:
Chain of Gold by Cassandra Clare & Chain of Iron by Cassandra Clare
House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J Maas
Firekeeper's Daughter by Angeline Boulley
And although i definitely had others these were the ones i rated 5 stars, definitely worth checking out.
you should read the shadow hunter series!! I'm sure you will love the romance.
The crave series are so good. People are always comparing them with twilight but they are so different (in a good way). In the first book, yeah, they do have a lot in common but when you get to the second one, they are so different. The second book is *chef kiss*. I recommend them so much!!!
if you want to read a romance series, I think you'd really like "The Summer I Turned Pretty" series!!!! It's the cutest story ever!!!
If you’re looking for fantasy YA with a romance sub-plot I would recommend Red Queen, it’s an amazing book series.
These Violent Delights is sooo good! I also really liked Throne of Glass! The rest of these books I’ve definitely heard amazing things about so I think you’ll be in good hands!
off topic but in love of how adorable your dog is in the back🥺
Hi, Haley
I highly recommend you to read “Truly Devious” series, I read it yesterday and this sooo good, perfect mix of mystery problem solving+romance😍
that’s my current read!
LOVE THIS
I totally recommend A Court of Thorn and Roses. Its YA series, fantasy, and romance!!
idk if she’d like it cuz its spicyyyy haha
and smut 🙃
yeahhh they moved it to the adult fantasy section in Barnes and noble for a reason…
I’m currently on the 6th book of Throne of Glass and believe me - it’s SO good. The world building and the character development is immaculate!
i absolutely LOVE all the bright places. its one of the best books i've ever read and it made me ugly cry. you should definitely read it
I’m adding all of these books to my reading list, thanks for sharing! 💫 Keep rising to be who you want to be! 💫 #keeprising #risingtobe #aswerise #riser
I absolutely bawled when reading All the Bright Places. I have to say the film was a bit of a let down! One of Us is Lying has a sequel book which is also very good! And when it comes to Sally Rooney, I read Normal People and it took a bit of time to get into because she writes without speech marks. It's also the first book I've read which is more character focussed rather than plot based. All of that being said though, I loved it and I've just started watching the tv adaptation!
Haley becoming more of a book queen every video 🤩✨
YAAAS ur reading tog, its so good!! the world building and all i thought it was really well done, and u literally will get soo attached to the characters!!! and there is just a bit spicy scenes but u can skip it if u want
I loved “The Masterpiece!” Can’t wait to hear what you think.
the to all the boys i've loved before by jenny han is such a good series! the netflix movies I think are more popular than the books but they are hands down my favorite.
also the false prince series by jennifer a. nielsen is also amazing if you like fantasy at all
to all the boys ive loved before is so good omg
YESSSS TO ALL THE BOYS I LOVED BEFOFE TRILOGY WAS SOO GOOD better than the movies imo
@@farrahwalker9659 FRRR
caraval is soooo good so far. i’m still reading the rest of the series but the first book was AMAZING. the romance was such a good subplot and the plot line was extremely interesting.the character development was really strong and i really think you’d enjoy the series, i have to five stars too!!
OK IM SO HAPPY YOU’RE READING LEGEND. IT’S MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE SERIES
Infernal devices is a YA fantasy that focuses in a love triangle romance and two of them love reading. I think this series is perfect fo you!! The trilogy is my favourite and they made me cry more than any other
If you're looking for more YA / Mystery, Karen McManus is great for that! Since 2018 she's published 5 books - the One of us is Lying series (which you have) and three standalones - The Cousins, You'll Be the Death of Me, and Two Can Keep a Secret!! They aren't the most complex mysteries and sometimes the characters feel simplistic, but they are fun short mysteries that you can read in one sitting :)
Be aware of the sequel to One of us is Lying (titled One of Us is Next) - it is WAY worse than One of us is Lying LOL, but the stand alone novels are good!
What 🥲 I rated one of us next 5/5 and one of us is lying 3/5. The representation was SO much better, the character development was better and I felt the characters were actually payed attention to by the author. Just my opinion tho. Each to their own ig 🤷🏻♀️
@@beansontoast8819 agreed, the characters were more fleshed out in the sequel! I find a common problem in McManus's books is that other than the protagonist and love interest, we don't get much info or personality from any other characters. However, I found the mystery component in one of us is next to be way weaker, less shocking, and less believable than in the original
@@isabelnelson6875 yep I do think that if I weren’t attached to the characters the mystery wouldn’t have interested me as much as one of us is lying. But I found it less predictable than one of us is lying still bc I didn’t figure it out and wasn’t expecting the cliffhanger
Love the book videos! I started getting back into reading because of you!
YES legend is literally one of my all time favorite series i’ve loved it since sixth grade but like still love it even now lmao
One of the book I read is lovely war by Julie berry. It was one of my favorite reads of 2021 and I highly recommend it.
I really enjoyed this book too
The spicy scenes in acotar are spaced apart. There arent many in the first book, if any at all, I think they're easy to skip over!
I just recently got back into reading, but was discouraged after trying a few things and liking none of them, but this made me want to try again!!! I’m so excited now and I added most of these to my own TBR list 🥰🥰🥰
I’m soooo happy you read the cruel prince series!!! It’s one of my faves
Look up “the 7 1/2 deaths of Evelyn hardcastle” it seems so good and has so many good ratings- it’s on my TBR currently!
all time favorite book. it’s beyond great
you should read "red queen" by victoria aveyard that book is so good your going to love it
yes i love that book!!
Congrats on 700k, I love your book content 🤍
i definitely recommend the red queen series if u like cruel prince! it’s got the same kinda vibes and is honestly so good!! idk how to explain it without spoiling aha
Cassandra Clare has awesome YA fantasy! City of Bones is a really really good book
I think she’d love the infernal devices sm since it’s more romance. I’d love for her to read them and vlog it
