Noooooooooo

OMG wait how did that fanfic finish I totally forgot
Why is this purple yam waving a knife at me im scared
This yam is armed and dangerous
Listen, Noemí and Francis are the epitome of the meme that's like "me and the bad bitch I pulled by being a lil goofy". Like, I wholeheartedly believe in his being weird in a cute/endearing kind of way. He would've been weirder if his dad hadn't been an outsider, y'know? I have a hard time believing Virgil is handsome bc he's full incest baby and Francis is only half. And anyway, if they ever have kids Noemí's genes will deffo kick those incest genes in the ass and the kids will come out alright! I believe in them! Bad bitch and her goofy lil dude!
Just finished Mexican Gothic, and I gotta admit: Francis is great, and it's impressive that he and Noemi had actual chemistry. I feel that's so rare in books, where I actually like the romantic pair.
“it really boils down to the book being very white” LmFAAooaOOO 💀💀💀 i love V.E. Schwab but you are so loud, but so very right 😭💀
LOLLLLL IM SORRY I think she's talented but let's call it for what it is LOL
I actually really liked reading Noemi go from slightly shallow socialite who thinks Francis is ugly to realizing the house is fucked up and he's her only real ally and forgoing describing him as ugly entirely. And the shift was very subtle because it happened when even bigger fucked up shit was happening too!
I thoroughly refuuuuse to believe Francis wasn't hot, like my eyes would literally black out the parts when the author described him as ugly 🙅🏻♀️
"I pretend I do not see"
I do not see it....I am looking away
the author tweeted that noemi keeps saying francis isn’t good looking bc she’s used to dating superficial men who look like pedro infante and that francis probably looks like george mackay and she actually is attracted to him which is why she’s in ✨denial✨
@@sezzyhills if she said it, then that’s canon 🙌🏻

@@withcindy yessssssss
@@withcindy 10/10 would definitely watch
I would even question what's normal when it comes to Cindy.
@@withcindy Yes, but only if you’re getting paid! HF should not be getting this level of product placement, high quality cooking metaphors and brand tie-in for free. 💰
you’re really out here representing my mental state without even trying
it do be like that
While reading Mexican gothic I thought it was interesting how Catalina husband (virgil?) was handsome and perfect and Francis described as ugly and asymmetrical, I thought that it was refreshing that a nice guy was "ugly" even though in my head he was normal and nice (my type of guy).
I think that there was commentary on how the mold was taken over the house decrepitude and also a commentary on European adoption beauty standard
I do not want to misinformation about physical differences and I read that in Mexico the issue of cleft palate was sign of inbreeding among county folk over poverty level - Mexican American on internet
However a mexican nurse said cleft lip/ palate closure making upper lips is partially responsible to prenatal environment not being nourished. Specific when lower numbers folic acid
However currently 2023 a research paper show genetic markers for cleft/cleft lips. So although many times stats say that it occurs 2x or in Japan n China the percent per birth is 3x higher occurrence ...
However if lay person in Mexico upper-class perpetuate stereotypes toward poor class and inbreeding,which is often they is form of victim blaming and being deaf to poor parent asking for pre,natal ,posnatal so that children occurrence of this decrease as from principio or start natal space inside the mother is nutrient rich as possible not deficient from conception baby full term
which declasse until she and her cousin
That one part at the end when Noemi is bathing and she can't understand why she's overthinking about Francis and she's like "he's not even handsome". I really relate with that as someone who already fell for some pale and probably anemic white boys
“Damn Becky got eaten by a monster, again?...” Wait AGAIN 🤣 how do u survive that

@@dicksdrugsanddebutantes9305 Sims cowplant energy
I was losing my shit when you were talking about “Mexican Gothic” because SAME oh my god I loved it and I had the HUGEST crush on Francis. The whole time I was like, “please tell me he’s just like, sickly-chic or something, and is actually really good looking please. He is such a precious, caring baby boy, please I just want him to give a little smooch to Noemí.”
I was in the same boat with Francis!! The story kept going and I was like "noooo please don't make me hate him, I want Noemi and Francis to be happy, even if he has no lips and isn't the hot one!"
“Wolfish grin 🐺...Stop trying to make him look hot!!” 9:37. Huh, only one person would find that hot 😏
WAIT---
Me?
Ladies and gentlemen, we've got her
I am confident Cindy will write a Noemi x Francis fanfiction. The power of banging will restore his lips.
Excellent idea
Me: *is cramping and miserable* "i should sleep"
Cindy: *uploads*
Me: "or maybe not"
I'm supposed to start my period soon too so I will join u
Dont mind me just gonna be the third wheel here
I've got about a week to go, but I can feel shark week on the horizon
This was me last week so I know how you feel
Update I started my period just now. Will join u in a few hours
Watched this video to get your take on Mexican Gothic after I just finished it, and boy it did not disappoint. You are freaking hilarious, and agreed, Francis is hot despite how hard they tried to convince us otherwise.
To quote tumblr: “I just wanna put the blade of my sword under a pretty boy’s under and tilt their head up so I can see both dear and arousal in their eyes is that too much to ask”
What about pretty girl?
@@withcindy pretty girl to pretty girl? Yes, absolutely

The real question of the book
@@withcindy Lol😂
Just your average frog here making sure you guys are taking care of yourselves! Things are really stressful right now, so these are just little reminders/check-ins.
Have you....
-Drunk water lately?
-Eaten something?
-Stretched and/or walked around recently?
-Taken a mental break?
-Taken your meds? (If you take them)
-Taken a shower in the last few days?
Take care of yourself guys!
Today’s question: What’s your favorite season? I love Fall because of the cool weather and spooky vibe. 🎃
Thank u frog 🌿
The fact that my answer to all of those is "no" 😳
Aw thank you frog!!
Fall is my favorite too, gotta love those spooky vibes
I love the cold harsh winter. Because then everybody is as depressed as I am. 😎
Dude i saw this and tried to take my meds but now I’m just choking on the water that i need desperately because I haven’t hydrated myself all day
Just finished Mexican Gothic and came back to this review to laugh even HARDER 😂 thank you for the great recommendation!
POV: the loneliness finally got Cindy so she kidnaps a subscriber to talk to them about books
Yes
As soon as I saw that you read Mexican Gothic and saw that you were cooking, I hoped that you would be using mushrooms. You didn't disappoint 🍄
Haha it was an awesome coincidence!
POV: You're a ghost who is just trying to rest in peace, but the weird lady in the apartment can't stop waving her knife at you.
MAAM MAAM YOURE HOLDING A KNIFE🔇🔇🔇🔇🔇🔇🔇🔇🔇
Yes? 🔪
"the book was very white" why would you say something so controversial yet so true?
This brings back memories of my actual aunt babysitting me but instead of books it was about her telenovelas. Middle school me couldn't do math to save her life but ask me about Parvati's second husband, you got yoself an essay on that cheating sonofabish
Cindy continues to be relatable as she struggles with the problem I always have.... overestimating how much can fit in a stovetop pan once you need to mix everything together.
Why can't pans just be the perfect siZe
Also I'm not sure if it's the editing but this is the first I've noticed you're left-handed. Yay lefties!
Yes I am!
@@withcindy I am too!
@@withcindy lefty solidarity !
Is it bc she kept pointing a knife at you? Is that why you noticed?
another book i read by silvia moreno-garcia was gods of jade and shadow, i recommend, especially if you’re into mythology
i can't explain it but watching you cook and point knife at me is somehow comforting
she's the new Bobby Flay
Sounds kinky
Saw the title and wasn’t even surprised anymore.. it’s Cindy
What else is new
❤️
me: oh I haven’t caught up with cindy in a while she’s just uploaded a new video too!
cindy, brandishing knife at me:
WELCOME BACK 🔪
Let's be honest we're all here to hear some more about kissing the coronavirus amiright
Oop it's a short segment
Please tell me I’m not the only one who thought: Well if no one could remember her then she could just idk..be a serial killer. Like just think about it, she could take her anger out, AND a the witnesses of the crime will never remember anything about her so she can’t get caught.
Ok but the way Cindy describes things is so goddamn funny and I simply have no choice but to stan
glad u enjoy :3
I was thirsty for a "Mexican Gothic" review and I finally quenched! now I must read Mexican gothic. I wanna read some historic magic realism from what you said that's the genre.
I’m sorry but Virgil gives me the creeps and Francis was a cutie
"My worst nightmare is men"
Most relatable thing i've ever heard
us: WHAT DO YOU HAVE
cindy: A KNIFE!
us: NO!
Yes 🔪
lili love that meme 😂
But I bet Francis will be cute when and if they still do the Hulu tv show. But my choice to play Francis is Tom Holland (who really has no upper lip) or Dane DeHaan (who has an odd look to him but still cute). And they better keep Noemí dark-skinned - but that’s a whole ‘nother story. Anyway, I loved the book!
I admit, I liked Addie laRue but the whole time I kept wondering why she didn't leave France sooner or why we didnt get to see her travels around the world? Like they mention it in the beginning but it's never shown, she's mostly shown in France or New York
Now this is the aggressive wine aunt vibes I needed in my life now that Thanksgiving is cancelled
This video IS thanksgiving
I can’t express how much i needed a Cindy video todayyyy like it’s been tough out here😭🥺
Hang in there ♥️
Same... Cindy's videos always cheer me up... and this was a rough week
That knife pointing gave me anxiety lol
good
Now I’m also worried about Francis. I was very interested in some of the books and I plan to read soon. Thank you for sharing your opinion about them.
Hope you enjoy it!
i saw "unmentally stable" in the thumbnail and i immediately clicked 😩😩 thank u cindy for keeping me company as i cry over this engineering homework i have rn
Good luck with homework 😁
This HAS to be my favourite channel!
Aww thanks 😘
You always have the most captivating titles that just draw people in so quick 😂
It was very close to being a keyboard smash but I resisted
Something Cindy mentioned about A Deadly Education reminded me why I like the story and characters to Hogwarts Mystery more than anything JKR had ever written, since not only is your rival a girl regardless of your main character's gender, she's pretty complex as well. I loved making my character act aggressively friendly towards her despite her trying so hard to be a stereotypical Slytherin bully, which ends up flustering her even more until she finally becomes a friend (and potential romance option, ALSO regardless of your character's gender. Because, unlike its source material, Portkey Games says LGBT rights).
starting with cooking, to wrapped in a blanket and saying ur tired......... is this a date?? 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
loved the vid and super happy to hear abt everything you been reading lately!! very excited for this hinted video too 👀
Wow I guess it is a date!! ☺️
I refused to believe Francis was unattractive 😂 I thought Mexican Gothic was such a great book though!!
He's cute in my heart
Cindy: I point a knife at you while I talk about books
Me: yess my 2 kinks in one video
well well well....
13:53 Ethnic food? What revolutionary diversity!
Also yes a deadly education sounds just like a drarry fanfic, the ridiculously bitchy mean character x the Himbo hero is exactly the most beloved dynamic the fandom chooses for most of their drarry fanfics esp the 8th year AUs so I understand why people might say it's adapted from Novik's own stash of fanfic
And that's ok bc fanfics are awesome and this "criticism" more than any praise makes me want to read this book
if u do i hope u enjoy!

This channel is a gem. You are a gem. I'm so glad I found this channel. Your energy and the way your describe these books clearly tell me what it is and I don't feel pressured to like the book. Also your funny as hell. Always put a smile on my face ☺
Cindy: Almost throws a knife
Me: Nurse , she's doing it again....
shhhhhh
It was kind of therapeutic watching you cook despite the indiscriminate knife wielding lol I hope it helped (re what you said in the thumbnail) and you feel better soon/find ways to cope like cooking etc.
For the past couple weeks I've been planning my days with a points system (eg. 2 points for doing laundry, 5 for going to class, even 2 for rest time so I actually rest and don't feel guilty about it) and doing my tally at the end of the day reminds me I've achieved stuff. Not to give unsolicited advice as I know that's annoying lol but I can relate to a lot of what you say about your depression (though anxiety is usually the bigger problem for me) and I just wanted to share. Feel free to ignore! Just the cooking/self-care thing made me think of it.
Great video as always :)
I like your points system idea!
Okay, but like Cindy replying to all comments is so endearing!🥺🥺
I try :3
I would totally love to read Mexican Gothic as a mexican myself to see how historically accurate it is, you mentioned certain things about colonization and Spaniards that are commonly learned in schools like the mansion with the whole family that lives in it is most probably an hacienda (in how you described it) I think the more you learn about these things, the better experience you'll have reading, bringing more attention to the little details. The book may not be focused on the historic side of things but I guess I'll have to find out ;)
oooh let me know if it is!!
You know, with Cindy's channel, watching the video is not the only entertainment. I wonder how many people also reads the comment section, and see how Cindy responds to the comments. Cindy, have you ever gotten absolutely random one word comments? Like "Ponies~!!" For example, I feel since you're very responsive, some people would do that just to see what you'd respond with. Okay...not some people, I low-key wanted to do that but resisted.
As many have said before, watching you hold a knife and waving it around was sorta making me nervous, but also kind of helped me with the stressfulness of this year, and simply this week too! This week has been really hard for so many reasons.
22:04
Started watching this video yesterday, got to that point, decided the plot sounded interesting so I dropped everything and read the first and second books online XD
Personally I enjoyed them, but the controversy surrounding the first was absolutely understandable. I thought the second was better, personally, especially because it included a lot of diversity with LGBT+ characters, while having that not be their entire character. Very nice :]
“Crusty, dusty old man”🤣#iloveCindy
This comments section is amazing😂
