I love how real you are. You are so unapologetically yourself and your confidence is inspiring. I love watching your videos and loving how passionate you are about your books! Keep killing it and smashing standards on this side of UA-cam. ❤️
I was exactly the same with grown. I got the audiobook from my library and I'm so glad because it was so good but so haunting. I know I won't read it again but I highly suggest people read it once.
I was obsessed with Mina & I’m here for the sequel next year. A few channels I follow have rated it: Chloe, Jodie, Desi and Mers. But if you’re not excited by it I’d donate it with the others.
My friend (gay male) saw a naked female for the first time when he went to nursing school. I did let him touch my boobs randomly when i was drunk one night but i wasnt naked. Lol
Unhauls are also my favorite videos to watch and make and I often just search for random recent unhauls :- D The last one I did was also pre-moving one and I can't wait to do another one :- )
Love how you get rid of bad book energy and have bought a ouija board, GIRL!🤣 love your videos and vlogs and just you gosh I love you! Also adore your top. Would you mind sharing where you got it? Also would you ever consider doing like a fashion type video cause I love your style 💜
Please give Katrina Leno another try!!! Summer of Salt is one of my all time favourite books 😭 and I also loved Horrid. Both more than You Must Not Miss!!! I get that many people won't like them just as much as I did but I think you should definitely try them since they're very different than you must not miss
Girl I love you. You always crack me up and your commentary on books is so great! Every time I see your videos I'm like 'man I wanna be this girls friend!' Thanks for being awesome! You are inspiring me to clean out my shelves. I have so many books from forever ago. I really need to do a clean out of my shelves.
Omg, Katie I love you! Your energy and charisma is captivating and I'm always grinning like an idiot while watching your videos. Your book recs are also God tier😍 But how can you (rightfully) bash on the horrifying writing style of Nevernight and mention IN THE SAME video that you love ACOTAR... sending mixed signals there, girl! 😅
I just unhauled recently too bc I was tried of looking at books that I legit don’t think I’m ever pick up bc I lost interest, I feel better now only having the books I am still interested in.
Fence is continuing as a graphic novel!!! 😁😁 the fifth volume comes out November 2022 😁 I’m not positive but I’m pretty sure you don’t need to read the novel to still understand the graphic novels, I think it’s just an extra side thing Edit: I read Fence bc of your rec when you first read them and OMG I LOVED IT 😍 one of my favorite series now, it has my heart completely, thank you for introducing me to them!
@Katie Colson So when you DNF books, do you always give a star rating to them, or do you not give them any stars? You said you gave 2 stars to one that you DNF'd so I was just curious.
You'll be happy to hear Bunny is coming in the mail 😘 you sold me and I found it new and hardcover for 11$!! As much as I LOVE Nevernight and I am hurting at the hate you have for this book.. I laughed at all you said about Jay kristoff 🤣 ❤️
Lmao I wish I could have an entire video of you ranting about nevernight 😂😂 it makes me feel so validated bc that book makes me rage inside! and feel literally insane because WHY DOES ANYBODY LIKE IT?????
Last year when I was new to the book community I ordered Bunny from Barnes but then right when it arrived I returned it to the store without reading it. I got nervous because of a trigger warning about animal cruelty..is this a big theme in the book? I'm sensitive with that.
Hello! I liked Summer of Salt A LOT, but did not love Horrid. I think you'd like Summer of Salt too! It's v atmospheric, sapphic, and witchy. If you've read and liked The Raven Cycle, you'll like Summer of Salt.
Muse of nightmares was def not as enjoyable for me as strange the dreamer but the reveal why Mina is the Mina is was…interesting. I gave it a 4 but I also gave strange 5 ⭐️ so you probably won’t think it’s worth it. You could always read spoilers and see if you’re intrigued enough lol
The hairpin bridge was so horrible lol def that ending with how she found the kid ummmm what? He been down there for how long? How is he even alive? Lol I legit couldn’t with that book
Oh thank god I’m not the only one who finds the Tomb books a hot mess! I felt like I was standing in a sea of Muir-disciples, waving a tiny flag of dissent. I like the potential in Muir’s writing, but the whole series feels like an ill-judged AmDram late night lock-in.
“If you haven’t seen boobs… live a little” 😂 loved this so much I spit my drink out it had me dying and jay kristoff is such a problematic author, nevernight is so bad
I saw new readers on bookstagram talking about how they didn’t like Jay’s newest release and they had a montage of how many times the word “Bitch” was used. Everyone in the comments: sorry you had to experience that honey, he’s a skip. Although, I enjoyed the Illuminae Files but it kinda irks me that he is a part of that.
I am sad you are getting rid of Instructions for Dancing. That book made me cry and was so good. I am thinking that Grace may like it, but I say, give that one a second chance...maybe?!! All the rest, good ridden. Now, you got me spooked to read The Empire of the Vampire (think that is the name; it's by Jay Kristoff) 😬
can confirm that the guys from the patient/ silent patient are only slightly exaggerated versions of male psychologists……… from my personal experience with colleagues only 💀
Can you gift me “Bunny”? 😩 I have been trying to get that book for so long now and can NOT find it ANYWHERE ! Also, just recently found your channel and I freaking love you.
Summer of salt is the only Leno I can tolerate. Her writing style isn’t for me and I wouldn’t pick up anything else by her, but I did enjoy Summer of Salt. Do with that what you will.
And for the third comment-thanks for the day phobia call out in Kill Creek. I pointed it out in my review and DNF’d when they got into the house and the elevator scene happened. It was enough. I was so angry nobody was speaking on the problematic content and that I’d spent money on it. Pure garbage.
I love how real you are. You are so unapologetically yourself and your confidence is inspiring. I love watching your videos and loving how passionate you are about your books! Keep killing it and smashing standards on this side of UA-cam. ❤️
"I can't believe he has sisters" completely wrecked me LMAO
You're description of Jay Kristoff is so spot on it hurts 😂
I once heard someone describe Nevernight as a My Chemical Romance music video in book form
Omgggg that is so funny and so spot on
That lip colour is stunning on you!!
Why am I such a sucker for an unhaul!! I have heard of Mina and the Undead and people seems to love it!
Fr. I love doing my own unhaul. It’s the best.
“We’ve all seen boobs before, at least I hope you have. If you didn’t….Live a little” fucking killed me 😂😂😂
Yes unhauls are so cathartic 🤗 and best of luck with your move!! I’m so stoked for you! 💞
I agree with you on The wife between us & The patient 😂
“paper floppy bricks” pls i knew exactly what u meant
Your rant about Nevernight made me literally laugh out loud 😂
OMG YES! i love book unhauls + long videos so thanks for this luv ya 🛐💖
I love book unhaul too
I was exactly the same with grown. I got the audiobook from my library and I'm so glad because it was so good but so haunting. I know I won't read it again but I highly suggest people read it once.
I was obsessed with Mina & I’m here for the sequel next year. A few channels I follow have rated it: Chloe, Jodie, Desi and Mers. But if you’re not excited by it I’d donate it with the others.
hearing: “we’ve all seen boobs. And if you didn’t, live a little.” as a gay men *sighs* you didn’t have to do me so dirty hahah
Technically you probably have seen them as a baby....😅
My friend (gay male) saw a naked female for the first time when he went to nursing school. I did let him touch my boobs randomly when i was drunk one night but i wasnt naked. Lol
I haven't read Nevernight but I feel the same way about every book I've read by just him as you do about Nevernight.
Unhauls are also my favorite videos to watch and make and I often just search for random recent unhauls :- D The last one I did was also pre-moving one and I can't wait to do another one :- )
I haven't gotten around to reading Mina and the Undead yet but judging by it making it's rounds in the horror community, it seems to be well liked.
I was waiting for the nevernight rant! I saw you were so excited to read it & I was like why Katie why it’s terrible!!!!
You totally called it. I loooathed it
Cracking up about the “live a little!” comment
17:54 is me looking at books and taking them in and out of my Amazon cart 😂😂
love this energy i love to unhaul lol. my fave video i've filmed so far
I really liked Summer of salt, I thought it was charming and the mystery is super good too. It tackles some important topics so would recommend x
Omg soo fun that you’re annotating Bunny 🤓
me, a 26 year old woman, with her giant headphones and smudged eyeliner from yesterday that i didn't wash off: 👁️👄👁️
You are so good at unhauling Katie! I am so indecisive, it's hard for me to get rid of books 🥴 Honestly this has inspired me. Maybe I'll do an unhaul.
your star rating system is so on point!!
Oh wow thank you so much!
Your videos always make my day, so funny! Also I would love to see a bookshelf set up/organisation video at your new place.
Thank you, Cara! I appreciate that. I am definitely planning on making a bookshelf set up video and a bookshelf organization video.
@@KatieColson Oh brilliant! You're welcome, and you are one of my comfort booktubers. I just love you and your videos.
Read the Katrina Leno!!! Summer of Salt is so good 😭😭😭👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I have None Shall Sleep and I haven't read it yet lol. But I love Scythe. I've only read the first Scythe book though.
*runs to the store to buy Bunny immediately*
OMG YES PLEEEEEASE
Love how you get rid of bad book energy and have bought a ouija board, GIRL!🤣 love your videos and vlogs and just you gosh I love you! Also adore your top. Would you mind sharing where you got it? Also would you ever consider doing like a fashion type video cause I love your style 💜

I get that many people won't like them just as much as I did but I think you should definitely try them since they're very different than you must not miss
Firefly Lane was so goooood and the book is way better 🤣😅
Girl I love you. You always crack me up and your commentary on books is so great! Every time I see your videos I'm like 'man I wanna be this girls friend!' Thanks for being awesome! You are inspiring me to clean out my shelves. I have so many books from forever ago. I really need to do a clean out of my shelves.
Hi Katie, love your channel. I have way to many books, so I feel for you having to move house.
I believe that Chloe read Mina and the Undead and liked it.
Omg, Katie I love you! Your energy and charisma is captivating and I'm always grinning like an idiot while watching your videos. Your book recs are also God tier😍
But how can you (rightfully) bash on the horrifying writing style of Nevernight and mention IN THE SAME video that you love ACOTAR... sending mixed signals there, girl! 😅
You have to watch the netflix adaptation for Behind her eyes!! it was AMAZINGG I haven't read the book but the series was just next level 🔥
I love unhauls 😭❤️
I just unhauled recently too bc I was tried of looking at books that I legit don’t think I’m ever pick up bc I lost interest, I feel better now only having the books I am still interested in.
I also love unhaul videos!! I’ve loved every Shari Lapena except for The Stranger in the House so you might love more thrillers from her
Now I’ve made it to the end where you already have loved another Shari Lapena lol
Good Girl Bad Blood is pretty good!
Definitely try selling the Acotar book... the original covers go for a decent amount now i heard.
I'm wondering what it would have looked like if you had survive the night along with kill creek and hairpin bridge 🤣.
Fence is continuing as a graphic novel!!! 😁😁 the fifth volume comes out November 2022 😁 I’m not positive but I’m pretty sure you don’t need to read the novel to still understand the graphic novels, I think it’s just an extra side thing

As much as I LOVE Nevernight and I am hurting at the hate you have for this book.. I laughed at all you said about Jay kristoff 🤣 ❤️
I liked the book but she didn’t lie, that is very much the vibe 😂
@@danielleoliver1734 oh yeah! There was no lie, I was laughing cause it's true but I still love that series 🤣
but having the ARC OF BUNNY IS SUCH A FLEXXXXXXX!!! I would definitely just get rid of the paperback copy if I were you 👀
To me Horrid did not really live up to the hype for me unfortunately bit I didn't read Summer of Salt yet and not sure if I will either.
Lmao I wish I could have an entire video of you ranting about nevernight 😂😂 it makes me feel so validated bc that book makes me rage inside! and feel literally insane because WHY DOES ANYBODY LIKE IT?????
Last year when I was new to the book community I ordered Bunny from Barnes but then right when it arrived I returned it to the store without reading it. I got nervous because of a trigger warning about animal cruelty..is this a big theme in the book? I'm sensitive with that.
I have a heart attack seeing you unhaul V.E. Schwab and (finally) got back to breathing when I heard "duplicate copies"😂
Hello! I liked Summer of Salt A LOT, but did not love Horrid. I think you'd like Summer of Salt too! It's v atmospheric, sapphic, and witchy. If you've read and liked The Raven Cycle, you'll like Summer of Salt.
Also, I'm moving soon too and you're inspiring me to unhaul that bad energy as well.
Muse of nightmares was def not as enjoyable for me as strange the dreamer but the reveal why Mina is the Mina is was…interesting. I gave it a 4 but I also gave strange 5 ⭐️ so you probably won’t think it’s worth it. You could always read spoilers and see if you’re intrigued enough lol
You made me very glad I didn't get The Ex Hex in my BOTM last month. Everyone has been RAVING about it so I had some FOMO.
I thought summer of salt was so boring but still magical lol
The hairpin bridge was so horrible lol def that ending with how she found the kid ummmm what? He been down there for how long? How is he even alive? Lol I legit couldn’t with that book
Yes,some books creep me out so bad that I can't have them in my room,Example GIRLS Raised by Wolf's 😦
Please please please read The Good Samaritan by John Marrs!!!!
Read the first couple chapters and decide.
So early for this.....🥰
Oh thank god I’m not the only one who finds the Tomb books a hot mess! I felt like I was standing in a sea of Muir-disciples, waving a tiny flag of dissent. I like the potential in Muir’s writing, but the whole series feels like an ill-judged AmDram late night lock-in.

Love your channel can't get enough. Can you please share what brand your watch is? I love how it tracks and shows your walking steps.
I’m sorry… the characters name is angelface?????
I am sad you are getting rid of Instructions for Dancing. That book made me cry and was so good. I am thinking that Grace may like it, but I say, give that one a second chance...maybe?!! All the rest, good ridden. Now, you got me spooked to read The Empire of the Vampire (think that is the name; it's by Jay Kristoff) 😬
I really enjoyed Instructions for Dancing😭😭😭 after I finished reading it I was like why, why did you do this to me.😢
@@chazf it was sooo good... And yes, I understood the ending but my heart had other feelings.
Horrid is very YA-ish. I gave it 3 stars. If you didn't like the one by Nina LaCour I don't think you'll like Horrid either
can confirm that the guys from the patient/ silent patient are only slightly exaggerated versions of male psychologists……… from my personal experience with colleagues only 💀
Hairpin Bridge, yes, absolute trash! Throw the whole book away.
Loved your description of a 9th grade edgelord. Spot on. :)
Can you gift me “Bunny”? 😩 I have been trying to get that book for so long now and can NOT find it ANYWHERE ! Also, just recently found your channel and I freaking love you.
Harlan Cohen: the boy in the woods was-not good. Another “rich white people problems” novel and I wanted everyone to die. Sooo 🤷🏼♀️
Summer of salt is the only Leno I can tolerate. Her writing style isn’t for me and I wouldn’t pick up anything else by her, but I did enjoy Summer of Salt. Do with that what you will.
And for the third comment-thanks for the day phobia call out in Kill Creek. I pointed it out in my review and DNF’d when they got into the house and the elevator scene happened. It was enough. I was so angry nobody was speaking on the problematic content and that I’d spent money on it. Pure garbage.
could not agree more about nevernight. literal trash
I’ve been trying to read the ex hex for an entire month and it just makes me cringe.

Katie I am really sorry but I can’t stand these videos as I can’t give away any books 📚 please stay safe and enjoy your reading 📖
Behind her eyes is so bad
