I’ve been through a betrayal recently and sometimes I want to take my mind off the bad memories and I read a lot but other days are so sad I can’t even concentrate on reading. Today’s one of those days. Still I feel a desire to read so I’m going to start with a short book. I can’t let sadness distract me from my reading goal. ❤ thank you Ali for the inspiring videos 🙏🏻
hi! i was the one that’s commented about powerless😅 and i finished the novella and the second book( i read the second one in 24 hours…). i love it’s sooooo much. it is by far my favorite series everrr. and it is mind blowing to me that she finished powerless at 18, she’s so talented.
Watching your videos is always so satisfying and immediately puts me in the mood to read! I just finished Still Beating which I loved, I think you convinced me to read Say you swear next. Also, would love to see an apartment tour with all the Halloween decorations! 🤍🎃
6:51 Ali I got spoiled about this too!! I knew where the things they were looking for was!! I WAS SO MAD😭 I got literally NO warning when I got spoiled I was just PEACEFULLY scrolling on booktube shorts
Here's one I think you'll like. It's called conager by louis lamour, when I started reading it I thought it was an action weastern. It was more romance than western. A lonely ranch woman on the frontier who writes poems meets up with conger a cowhand. There's apache and outlaws around. How they meet is interesting saddle up and enjoy.
You make me want to get The Stolen Heir when I didn’t even finish the Cruel Prince yet! How do you do it?! Lol, love your videos so much! Keep doing what your doing, and thank you for your wonderful book content! My favorite book girly ❤❤
Tip for books that have a lot of characters like that and you’re having a hard time keeping up with them: this is just something i do for every book i read just in case this happens, and a suggestion, you do you.. I keep a character list: every time the reader is introduced to a new character i write them down in my reading journal (i use my journal more for taking notes as i read) and next to the characters name i make a side note of their relation to the main character, this way i can just reference this list as i read if i come across a character i don’t remember all that well rather than googling who they are and potentially spoiling things for myself I hope this makes sense?
I feel like i am the only person who hasn't read powerless, I'm planning on doing the tandem read, to read powerless and powerful at the same time! Great video as always Ali ❤
The reason the friend group at the beginning feels info dumpy is b/c there is a prequel duet for Nate & Lolli and Parker & Kendra (the Fumbled Futures duet) I also had to google through my fingers when looking it up hahha
If you’re listening to an audiobook on audible, you can speed the book up to about 2x the normal speed. I like listening to audiobooks on about 1.3-1.5 speed ❤❤❤
AAAAAAAH YOU FINALLY READ THE STOLEN HEIR DUOLOGY!!!! Gosh that plot twist at the end of the first book had me DYING!!! And good news for you! Holly Black has mentioned that she is planning on writing another series about the ending events in The Prisoner's Throne! So there will be more!
Great video💗. I read The stolen heir in May and I really need to read The prisoner's throne. I don't why I binge read long series and took forever to finish duologies and trilogies😂.
I did a powerless/powerful tandum read and I was DEVISTATED. I'm glad I did it though it really tore my heart out even more then it would have otherwise 🥴
I just waited for you to read powerful. I feel the same way, I would have LOVED a full length book for Adenas story. And as you said it’s even worse knowing what awaits her. I was crying uncontrollably for the last 40 or so pages. To me it was 5 stars. I don’t like to re-read books but that I would go through again 💔
You always make Holly Black's books sound so good. I started cruel prince, but I am having a hard time getting through the beginning. I wanted to know if I should keep pushing so I can get to the other books? :)
I am 74 pages in Meagan Brandy's book Promise Me Not which is the book that came out for after Say You Swear on October 1st. Are you planning on reading it?
I´m loving the Maple Hills books im sorry you didn´t like Daydream, but i think it´s better then the second one and crushed that we dont get more. What will Robbie and Mattie do with out me?!
Just to let you know she is making one more book set in the elfhame (idk if that’s how you spell it.) world. Holly Black said the last bit of the prisoners throne gives you a clue as to what the book will be about.
Yes there’s a happy ending! I often feel mixed on sad books bc I love to read for fun and escapism but I loved this book even though it was sad at parts
Literally so upset i am reading powerless by lauren roberts currently and earlier this week i was scrolling on my fyp when i got the biggest spoiler for the end of the book and now i am absolutely traumatized
What was your favorite September read?
They Both Die At The End
@@Julia-ho4rl Really? I DNFed it
@@abdirst yeah, i really enjoyed it!
+ i had not so good reading month and that was my only 4 star 😅
My favorite September read was starling house.
hair is EATING in the intro 🤩🧡💋
I swear I admire Ali's hair in every single video it's always so pretty
Yessss is totally is
Whenever I see a spoiler, I just gaslight myself into thinking I only imagined it 💀
REALLLLL 😭😭😭 or gaslight into thinking I forgot it 💀🫣
LOLOL saaaaaame
Tbr videos are my favorite! They usually encourage me to read off my own. ❤
Hey same!
You look like a fairy in that hairstyle, suits your vibe so well! Thank you for giving us another book video, you help get me out of slumps
The Eden's series is SO good! They're super fast paced and there's a mystery storyline that develops in the second half of the series that is SO GOOD
My comfort booktuber . I love watching you videos ❤

Im sorry that happened to you too 😭😭 but also glad it wasn’t just me 😅 not giving a spoiler warning should be illegal
I’m going to have to film a video like this at the end of October I already know. I have soooo many books I need to get to in October. Great video ❤️🫶

I am so happy to see you read Say You Swear. That book broke me. I just kept saying as you were reading “Girl just wait “
You make me want to get The Stolen Heir when I didn’t even finish the Cruel Prince yet! How do you do it?! Lol, love your videos so much! Keep doing what your doing, and thank you for your wonderful book content! My favorite book girly ❤❤
This video was so good and cozy!!

you neeeeed to read before i let go asap!!! easily one of my favourite reads of the year, 6 ⭐️ book
That was so satisfying to watch😊
Reading in JEANS should be a CRIME 😂😂
Also crop tops with short sleeves is like sensory overload I would rip my SKIN off my body if I was wearing that while reading lmao 😂
I love this video, Ali you are so amazing and your videos always make me so happy! ❤luv u❤
Yayyyy Ali post day!! My favourite 🫶🏼🫶🏼
I love how you still gave my killer vacation 2 stars but dnfed it and I read the whole things and gave it 1 star😂
OMG i love this sooo much!! You look beautiful btw!!!
Say You Swear is one of my favorite books. I'm so glad you loved it. There are a lot of people who don't.
There is also a part two coming out. I think it follows her brother.
Just ordered book 2 🤭
I feel like i am the only person who hasn't read powerless, I'm planning on doing the tandem read, to read powerless and powerful at the same time! Great video as always Ali ❤
i just finished the whole trilogy and it’s my favorite series ever. definitely my biggest recommendation.
@iluvconanandmel_614 isnt powerful is like a companion book?
@@srinithiactwell6371 how do you mean?
I am in a HUGE reading slump and I am not even buying books to read... I am so dead
Omg me too
The reason the friend group at the beginning feels info dumpy is b/c there is a prequel duet for Nate & Lolli and Parker & Kendra (the Fumbled Futures duet)
I also had to google through my fingers when looking it up hahha
Ahhh that makes so much more sense! I’ll have to go back and read it. Thanks for letting me know!!
I love your outfit and hair in the intro ❤
11:00 nooo Ali please, you can reread them❤️❤️

watching you read say you swear made me giggle
You always make Holly Black's books sound so good. I started cruel prince, but I am having a hard time getting through the beginning. I wanted to know if I should keep pushing so I can get to the other books? :)
Your Cat (Luca right?!) is soooo cute :D Keep the videos coming, greetings from Switzerland!
Where did you get your special edition of the prisoners throne from??
It’s from Illumicrate!
The title gaslighted us 😂
I am 74 pages in Meagan Brandy's book Promise Me Not which is the book that came out for after Say You Swear on October 1st. Are you planning on reading it?
Yes! I actually just ordered it ☺️ are you enjoying it?
Under 24 hourssss❤❤❤
My current read is Say You Swear so once i finish it i will come back to see what's your thoughs about it 🥰
I just went to Canada too😊
I´m so sad that Book of The Month doesn´t ship to Germany :( I Would love to order these Book Boxes :(
I´m loving the Maple Hills books im sorry you didn´t like Daydream, but i think it´s better then the second one and crushed that we dont get more. What will Robbie and Mattie do with out me?!
Is say you swear a book series or a sand alone ? I wanna read it. But I got too much series to read rn .
i believe she said it’s both! can be read as a standalone but the books after still include the same characters / friend group
If you liked say you swear you’ll love boys of Tommen if you haven’t read those yet! ❤
Did you know that there is another book set in the world of Elfhame called the darkest part of the forest? It came out even before the cruel prince
Your cat omg 😍
Ali is so beautiful she reminds of Rapunzel
Do you make all of your crocheted tops?
Teach me how to make my hair like u 🎉
I feel like Mak has to come back in the next book, otherwise what is the point of mentioning that he’s a wielder?
I loved prisoner of throne more bc we got Jude and Cardan
Just to let you know she is making one more book set in the elfhame (idk if that’s how you spell it.) world. Holly Black said the last bit of the prisoners throne gives you a clue as to what the book will be about.
No wayyyyy that makes me so excited!!! Thanks for letting me know
@@JustAli you’re welcome!
Are you going to read Nothing like the movies ?
Yes I want to!!! I loved the first book
where did u get the prisoner throne book it’s beautiful
It’s from Illumicrate!
I accidentally spoiled myself for the thriller I'm currently reading and I'm so angry at myself for it too!
Hi. If you haven't read it. You should read prisoner healer. I read the series in like. Four-five days 😅
I have Say You Swear as a tbr on my kindle and I've avoided reading it for months! 😢 I don't want to be sad. At least tell me there's a HEA!?
Yes there’s a happy ending! I often feel mixed on sad books bc I love to read for fun and escapism but I loved this book even though it was sad at parts
How many chapters did you read together in total? How many chapters does each book that you read have?
❤❤❤
2 mins❤
Literally so upset i am reading powerless by lauren roberts currently and earlier this week i was scrolling on my fyp when i got the biggest spoiler for the end of the book and now i am absolutely traumatized

Under a day gang 👇
I’m more thriller,horror 90% of the time. BUT I’m kind of intrigued by POWERLESS , hmmmm. Just don’t know
WAIT IM SO EARLY-
hi firstttt
not really fair to rate a book you didn’t finish. the rating should just be DNF, just a thought!! that being said, i also gave it a 2 ⭐️ lol
I want to reread stolen heir 🥲
