thank you!
thank you for posting for us des. ik u havent been feeling it too much lately but anytime i see ur face on my screen it makes my day. i love you❤️
omg same !!!!!
you’re the best Des like i never get sick of your videos and find so much comfort in them
throne of glass is so insanely special to me and it will forever be one of my favorite series of all time if not my favorite. i literally think about dorian and chaol every day.
Happy place sitting behind you on the bookshelf like 👁️👄👁️
😂😂
I completely agree with you about reading Assassin’s Blade first. I read Throne of glass and did not care for Celena and subsequently DNF’d the series. Years went by then I decided I wanted to pick up and try the series again. I read Assassin’s Blade first and it made me like and care for Celena so much more. I’m still getting through the series but I’m enjoying it more than I thought I would based on my feelings the first time I read Throne of Glass.
i needed this because i was debating on which to read first
Currently struggling through throne of glass! Glad to see this lol
100%!! I'll never understand reading AB later on in the series. I didn't read it until after the 5th book, and I regretted it so much. I wasn't a huge fan of Celaena, and also didn't really give a crap for Sam 🥴🥴. I finally understood after I read AB.
I am in this situation, I read the first two books ages ago and decided to re-read it and I could not give two damn about Celeana (I have been stuck at 30% for book 2 because... she is honestly pretty boring to me). Maybe I should try to pick up the assassin blade to see if it unlocks the slump I have while reading Crown of midnight.
loved that happy place was just sitting behind you the whole time you were talking about it
omg just what i needed!!! i’ve been binge watching you all week (and every week haha) you’re the best!! 🩷
des, my smile lights up everytime i see u posted a new video❤
Assassin’s Blade first>>>>>
Also I bought the most beautiful special edition of Dance of Thieves in Barnes the other day and I haven’t even read the duology, it was just that gorgeous lol
It's really good! I haven't read the second one but the first was great!
you’ll love it!! it’s absolutely AMAZING
Hiiii Des!! I’m always looking forward to your uploads! Keep it up❤️
The joy that i get watching you talk about your favorite books!! love u!
I’m always so excited when Des posts!!! ❤❤❤
i literally haven’t felt any difference in your channel now that you have a patreon. thank you for that.❤
I love your videos so much Destiny. Every time you post it makes my day a little bit better 🫶🏼💖
You mentioning Say You Swear is EVERYTHING to me. I was never a reader growing up and actually struggled with comprehension and being able to imagine things in my head when reading. I started with Colleen Hoover and then on a limb i saw one of Sara’s old videos (like very old haha) and i downloaded it on KU and i had never read anything that made me feel like that. I now have over 600 books and am a HUGE reader. That book is so special to me. I know the writing is so Wattpad but the story was special to me. If anyone is reading this comment, this is your sign to pick it up!! Love your videos bestie!! 🩷
I haven't read Throne of Glass, but everything you said about small details later coming back to be important is literally why we love Harry Potter so much ❤😄 thank you for posting this video Destiny!!
Your sponsorship parts are always done so so well!!!
As someone in the middle of reading throne of glass series
I know it in my heart that The Assassin's Blade must be read first bcoz it makes you see her character and care about her story. I tried to get into this series by reading throne of glass first but it was hard to care for Celaena and the pace was quite slow...so knowing what i know from the assassin's blade made me stick by her side to the end and I complete agree with Destiny that its a more harder hitting/emotional experience ❤
Des,we need a video where Mila chooses your tbr or what books you buy💕
im always searching for your bright cute thumbnails ! love when u post!
me rn: gagged you didn’t mention the chestnut spring series bc I just finished reading the entire series bc of you and Sara 🧎🏽♀️
The chestnut springs series was sooo good. Daddy Cade is 🔥
same, but with fourth wing
I LOVE these typa vids Des ❤
Willow and Garrison will forever have my heart! ❤️ this video has convinced me to go reread all of my favourites!! 😍

Happy birthday!!
AHHH love this video :) i wrote down a lot of them to buy next time i go to barnes!! also, im reading queen of shadows and i COMPLETELY agree that assassin's blade should be read first, because I also read it third and i wish i read it first. i loved watching you talking about the books that have impacted you so much, love u des!
thank you des! really needed this today
❤❤❤❤ this video is absolutely what I needed ❤❤❤ love when you post Des
I just recently found you and have been watching your videos before bed, and I love them so much because I feel like I'm hanging out with a best friend. So fun! ❤
I'm so excited it's a Des watch day.🥰

I def agree!! assassins blade first makes the most senseee
I always love watching your videos!
Omg loved so many of these books too! People we meet on vacation just finished and loved! Yours truly is so amazing too ❤
The irony that we can see Happy Place on your shelf in the video 😂😂
It’s cause she was talking about the paperback version and the one on her shelf is hardback :))
Recently found your channel and I love your videos so much. We couldn’t be more different but I relate to you so much at the same time. 💖
I don’t know about anyone else, but I love watching people talk about things they love 😊
This is the video I have been waiting for!
perioddd dance of thieves duology is my all time favv
I always drop everything I'm doing to watch your new videos!!! hope you are having a great day!
Just finished acowar and needed to find a new read i think i am going to start beach read. Thank you for posting you make my day everytime🩵
Say you swear just made my jaw drop all the time IT WAS SOOO GOOD! ❤
AHHH the best days are the days des posts🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
Dance of thieves is one of my favorite duologys ever! I’m glad you liked them! If someone has not read it then you should!
I agree about Assassin's Blade first!! That's how I read it and LOVED it.
Another series for you to check out: Spark of the Everflame. It's absolutely AMAZING
Omg your hair is sooo gorgeous!!! Can you share how you style it? 🙏🙏 Also thanks for the book recommendations!
You should do a reading vlog of rereading some of your favorite books and your reactions to them now!
so excited for this videooooo🫶
Me too 😊
Not Happy place be in the back 🤣😂
Destiny!! I wanted to let you know that you inspired me to read Happy Place last year. I found out that the setting was based in Bar Harbor, Maine. So that’s where I booked my vacation!! I went in January and the bookshop in Bar Harbor had Happy Place references everywhere in the store🩷
yay a new video🩷 hope you have a blessed week :)
I have put off reading addicted for too long. You’ve convinced me to get my act together and read it because we have so many of the same favorites! Binding & mag parks (but Daisy😍) yesss!! 👏🏻👏🏻
HAIR IS HAIRING love it
LOVE this video❤
Edit: I’m so glad that your favorite couple is Lo and Lily. They’re my favorite too!!
i just finished a 6 star read and was needing a new book rec!!! this is so helpful!
What was it?
You should film what you mood-read for a week!! I would love to see it and I love your content❤
Seeing 'Lilah' on her bookshelf made me sooo happy 🥹
YES GIRL. I read assassins blade 3rd as well, and i totally regretted it.
Hi Destiny, I think you are an amazing creator, your videos feel like really high quality and that you put so much effort and creativity in them! I just started my own book channel and you're the best inspiration! 💜💜
I love your book recs. I'm so intimidated to get into the SJM universe
The seven year slip!! One of the best books ever. I also binged it at an airport and on the plane
Firefly Lane has been one of my favorites since I read it 2009. I also LOVE Kristin Hannah’s book True Colors.
so much love for addicted calloway and the inclusion of willow and garrison!!
Now THAT is what I needed!❤
*takes notes* made some adds to the tbr thanks for this😁
bestie Destiny you look so beautiful in this vid!
This is what we needed 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I got excited when I heard you mention Happy Place by Emily Henry. I am starting to read it for the first time today and after reading Book Lovers (I loved it), I have high expectations for this book. I can't wait to finish it and see if it is worth the hype. I love watching your videos because they give me many books to add to my TBR.
The way i immediately remember “Shannon like the river” when anyone says Shannon and I get teary eyed
love your videos Destiny!
So I am reading Collided by Lauren Asher (#2 in the Dirty Air series) and I can't help but imagine you as Sophie!!! Between the wittiness, blonde hair, and the sneakers - my brain just imagines you! I came across your channel late last year and I love your content, thank you for creating all the things!
you've sold me. I bought powerless like 2 months ago and this was my trigger to actually read it
Thank you for saying that The Storied Life of AJ Fickery is set in a coastal town, that makes me want to read it even more! I just read a book set in a coastal town where the character was going to a bookstore and bakery and I loved it so much (Bookshops & Bonedust) ❤ it was also really atmospheric and heartwarming
I'm in the middle of TOG series and I read the assassin's blade first and I am so glad I did. It made me love Celaena soooo much more in Throne of Glass right off the bat.
Please do a video on your pre-orders/ anticipated reads
"i feel like i'm forgetting something" ME SCREAMING DAISY JONES AT MY SCREEN. haha love you des and your videos SO MUCH!
good day for us now that miss des has uploaded :)
I loved the seven year slip and the dead romantics! AJ Fikry was so beautiful! Firefly Lane has been sitting on my bookshelf staring at me:)
Yay! I have 2 audible credits to spend so perfect timing lol!
I promise you I could never hear too much on ACOTAR🫶🏼
I am currently reading Throne of Glass with Assassin's Blade as the 3rd book & I wish I would have read it first.
Reason being: TAKING A BREAK FROM THE MAIN STORY LINE IS KILLLLINNGGGGG MEEE. I did not consider this whatsoever lol
Dear Destiny, Thank you for recommending ACOTAR. I read A Court Of Thorns And Roses and loved it. Can’t wait to read the rest of the series. ❤
I need a reading vlog/mood reading vlog. We haven’t had one in awhile 🥺🫶🏻 still love all your vids regardless
I also loved The Storied Life of AJ Fikry! So good.
I have become OBSESSED with Books of Tommen series since you mentioned them, do you have any other recommendations that feel similar?
Great recommendations! Thanks!!
I love “ love and other words” and nightingale by Kristin Hannah. I can’t wait to read firefly this is the first I have heard of. I’m currently reading “one true loves”
I read Atonement for school and it was genuinely a literary masterpiece. I think you should possibly try it :)
I was totally thinking I wanted to read Assassin’s blade first. Thank you for confirming it’s a good decision.
Loved this! ❤
You NEED to read The House In The Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune. It’s so wholesome and sweet and the perfect spring/summer read
I’ve never read Firefly Lane. But I ADORE the tv show. I binged season 1 in one day and couldn’t stop thinking about it. Maybe if you go in thinking about it as another story you would like it? I do have the audiobook so I may have to start it soon!
100% agree with reading Assassin's Blade first. I was one of the people who didn't read it first, and I had nothing but severe regret.
It's so much easier to care about Celaena and Sam when you read AB first.
“K bye” as the chairs moving 😂😂😂
I never read the Firefly Lane book but I LOVED the show... now I feel like I need to read the book since you say it's different lol!
I'm gonna be starting Kingdom of Ash tomorrow and I can FULLY say that after reading books 1-7 and doing the tandem read, Assassin's blade should be #1!!
I loved the like us series even more than the addicted/calloway sister series
