"Who names their kid Gansey" when Gansey is his LAST NAME 😭
hahaha better than dick/richard imo
@@ellias so truee
the funniest thing about "who names their kid gansey??" as a criticism is that gansey is literally the guy's LAST name lsdkfj i wheezed SO HARD at this, but idk if his first name is any better since that's just dick/richard lol
i love how personal your reactions were to these😭🤧 kingggg
i def prefer gansey and ya know....i didn't mean for it to get personal but some of these takes got me ????!?!!!!!!?!?ASDDAWASDWHDA HDOjdLKkjghfusehfu lol
Not the highs and lows of highschool football 😂😂😂
riverdale was a mess!!
You had me at “dive into a cesspool of negativity.” Let’s gooooo
WE LOVE AND THRIVE IN NEGYATT!!!
Ellias didn't in fact choose peace today 😭
i tried so hard
Loved this video so much, have you considered reading 5 star reviews of the books you hated? That would be fun to watch.
ohhh this is good idea
I honestly wish we could downvote reviews but we all know that Goodreads will never update the website.
The funniest part is that recently they were looking for a software engineer on LinkedIn and I really hope they use that person
honestly at this pointt they should just lean into this for their branding now haha
A one star review is what convinced me to read The Fox Hole Court series. Everything they described that made them hate it just made me want to read it more. And I’m glad I did because I’m absolutely obsessed with it now❤️
omg
seeing two of my favorites books in this video (song of achilles and on earth youre briefly gorgeous) really cements i need to read the others now, nothing makes me trust a booktuber's taste than having those as favorites ngl
edit: AND the starless sea??? my favorite book of all time?? ellias i trust your book recommendations with my life
YES EXACTLY NOW GO READ SWIMMING IN THE DARK, PIRANESI, AND THE FARSEER TRILOGY!!!
I knew you were top tier when I saw you loved The Foxhole Court. It's such a favourite for me as well, I even have a tattoo of it lol
omg thats amazing i love that
The chopstick -- she's back 🥢
here to always stay!!!
Jokes on them because sometimes bad reviews make me curious enough to actually go and read the books 😂
omg could never be me haha
First of all, THANK YOU for NOT USING the annoying "biiiiip" sound when the distorted TV effect pops up. My ears hate it to no end. Second of all, loved the vid!!! 😂
u and pira are lowkey twinning now
omg ur right. he set the standards tbh
I love that we have the same favourite book of all time! 🐝🗝⚔
trust my tastes!!
my criticism of The song of Achilles is that Patroclus deserved a better partner %)
whoo!!
"the things i do for a man duh"
btw, new fear unlocked: posting a 1 star review on gr and then getting roasted by ellias.
hmmhmm i like to keep people on their toes
the clapback of "and whose fault was that" sent meee i swear goodreads is a wild place.
a cesspool of good and bad things honestly!
This really hurt my soul, but I’ll keep watching these videos cause everyone’s opinion matters for growth 😤 (one starring parts of my soul really did something to me on this day😭)
But I’m really loving, kicking, and swinging with your commentary skills(I’m at work)
lol which book reviews hurt you the most?
@@elliasSong of Achilles: “mediocre writing, flat story” & yet you have the nerve to not have read the damn Iliad??? Also, kick rocks Tim.
Piranesi: this would’ve been a top notch batch at a dispensary. It would’ve been so good it put me in the vestibules.
"Say it isn''t so!"
it was giving theater
“Wtf are you all smoking?” The good sht hahahaha slay
we are tho hmhm
Am I the only one who likes the foxhole court covers?
probably but that's not a bad thing haha
Just have to tell you that those are among my favorites too. Totally agree with you.
"who tf names their child gansey?" his name is richard?
hahah trueee
6:27 in russia the book cover of the foxhole court is kinda cool the boy with the like fox face courtour on top of his face...like merged together, never read... not my theme... but maybe i should wile i can...(how do i know the book cover if i hadn't read this book? it was in the list of books that could be banned in russia so i look up some books to buy wile they are available)
wait the foxhole courtt is banned in russia???
I‘m not sure if anyone‘s already mentioned it but there‘s a fourth aftg book called the sunshine court following Jean Moreau and there will be TWO MORE books in the series!! And for the love of God the covers still suck !!
YES I WILL BE READING AND VLOGGING
I did not enjoy Circe and haven't wanted to pick up any other Madeline Miller...but those 1 star reviews have me wanting to pick up Song of Achilles.
omgg wow the reverse psychology
I just reread the foxhole court and it's soooo good, but I also agree with like every negative review lmao. The ones who get it, get it and the ones who don't... sucks to be them lol
haha its def a book where you just had to be there duringg when it came out!
Ellias.....Ellias.....Ellias....Vita Nostra? 🤦🏻♀️ I wish you'd included my 1 star review. That was the most painfully pretentious crap I read this year before Paul Tremblay. 😂
NOOOO hahaha
“who the fuck is amanda” was the highlight of my day
Not going to lie… the one star reviews for Starless Sea and Vita Nostra? I’m reading those books lmfaooo 😭😭
@@SainabouSaye EXACTLY. TASTE 🙂↕️
I just finished rereading The Raven Cycle series lmaoo....bad writing? Where? 🧐
exactly
Off topic but like… what was the reverse harem book series if you can remember that 👀🤣
i think the series is called the bonds that tie by j. bree?
@@elliasok yeah read that one 😂
I’m sending you love (: ❤
💖
@@ellias ❤️❤️❤️
Song Of Achilles really is garbage, read it after reading E. V. Rieu's Iliad and Odyssey. It's just Patroclus being a cry baby. Most of the characters are characterised horribly.
it's 5 STARS FOR ME
@@ellias She should've made her own characters, it's so bad if the characters had different names you'd have no idea it's about Patroclus and his perversions and being a crybaby.
Pira at the beginning of the ad read: 🧍
making sure im doing it well
11:06 damnnn period!
hmhmm!!
