Mariana Zapata’s books are definitely a slow burn but she is one of my favorite authors. The ACOTAR series is one of my favorite series and be prepared to cry a lot with a thousand not kisses.
the sweetest oblivion series was SO good. when i got back into reading it was the first series i read and i absolutely loved it. to this day, the second book in this series is one of my faves
Hi, Alexa. Thank you for haul video. I am definitely going to buy Ocean View series. Please do a video about them when you finish reading. Tell us all if it was what you were expecting them to be.
I really enjoyed the sweetest oblivion! I’m also so excited that you’re giving acotar a try! I’m currently on Wings and Ruin and it’s one of my favorite series!
Hey, I love the section of your video where you spoke about mental health. I have mental health issues and I just want to say and what you to know that you and your channel really help with my mental health, I love watching your videos and they help me switch off and distract. I have recently got back into reading as well which has been a massive help xx
Hi lovey, that seriously makes me so happy to know that my channel can be a comfort place for you. Reading is something that really helps me too & I think that’s why I love doing this because I know it can be so helpful to so many people!! I definitely recommend checking out Aura because they have some amazing tracks that have really helped me get out of a slump. 🥹🫶🏻
from lukov with love and a thousand boy kisses are such good books!! i was bawling with a thousand boy kisses and giggling with from lukov with love. you have such good taste 😚
Yes to an ACOTAR reading clog!! Currently reading the second one and am loving it. The first one did start a little slow for me, which I think is due to it being fantasy and having to do world building, but I was obsessed once I got past the very beginning!
The pom pom pen mic is honestly iconic 😌👌🏻 I'm soo excited for you to read ACOTAR! It's very romance heavy even if it's a fantasy so I think you're really gonna enjoy it 🥰
My mother and I were viewing this film together while I asked her to get me a bookcase. She then exclaimed, "Oh my God, the girl is so BEAUTIFUL, May Allah Bless this girl." I'm sending you love on behalf of my mum and I.😍😍
ACOTAR was the first fantasy series i ever read and i ended up loving it! it was out of my comfort zone when i started. the middle of the first book gets slow, but push through and i promise you won’t regret it! the second book is where the good stuff starts! ❤️❤️ i love watching your videos, you always make me smile :)) also, congrats on your wedding!! i hope you have a great marriage 🥰❤️
@@alexaraye 🥹❤️ i also love mariana zapata’s books too! she’s the first slow burn author that i can actually read without complaining about it being too slow! her writing is amazing, you honestly don’t really think about how slow it is! i read from lukov with love first, then kulti, and the the wall of Winnipeg and me and loved them all! i also have all rhodes lead here, under locke, and dear aaron-i’ve read almost all of dear aaron, but i haven’t gotten to the others yet. i’m sure you’ll love them! ❤️
i’m so excited for you to read the acotar series!! you’re my favorite booktuber/bookstagrammer so I’ve been waiting forever for you to do a reading vlog on one of my favorite series!! 🫶🏼 sooo excited for you
I never read fantasy books before this series... I read a lot of books that you read. This series changed my life 🤍🤍 I cannot wait to hear your thoughts on it 🙈
I’m sorry I just have to say but you are adorable and even tho I mostly read and love horror, slasher, and splatter punk books, I love your videos just as much ☺️
Salutations on reaching 50K and a happy Halloween! So appreciative of all the love and support. You are incredible, and it's a privilege to be a member of our small literary community. eagerly for more! For you, I have a humorous personal question. What cozy Christmas books are you looking forward to reading this season?😀😀
Awesome video! Just finished the Selection series and didn’t know what to read next (even though my TBR is endless), so this helped me out a ton! Love you! ❤
ahhh I'm loving your videos ! Are you planning on doing a video on holiday/christmas reads? that would be sooo exciting since I want to read a bunch of these to get me in the mood 🧑🏼🎄
The ACOTR series DESTROYED me! I was about 50 books into my reading goal for the year back in March and then I decided to read the cruel prince series... LOVED IT..wanted more fae books and picked up ACOTR... Girl... I couldnt pick up another book in 6 months 😭😭😭 it was so good. I got the Silver Flame book when they released the paperback version and I still am not ready lmao so good. But that's just me! 😂 Also, I started off reading personal development and rom-coms before breaking into fantasy so yeah I think you'll enjoy! I do suggest cruel prince before ACOTR just because it's shorter and explains more about the fae world than ACOTR
The Made series by Danielle Lori is a dark romance series, even though it’s not that dark it is definitely dark romance 😊 I loved this series and especially the last 2 books!!
I ALWAYS recommend The Never After Series by Emily McIntire to everyone, they are incredible, and you are correct about your predictions on Hooked, Lion King and Wizard Of Oz, the 4th book is called Twisted and it comes out in February and omg it is a loose retelling of Aladdin
I love Lukov, but I think the beginning of the book is so slow! I heard that the others by Mariana are slow burn too. I really want to know if the new release by Ana Huang is good or not. Love your videos, sending love from Brazil❤
I had never read Fantasy (apart from Harry Potter) and I LOVE the acotar series! You *need* to read the second book in the series to form your opinion on the series though, I can't tell you why but you need to trust me on this one. I'm obsessed with the character and I definitely recommend you looking up fan art (try to avoid spoilers though) bc it makes the reading experience so much better and imagine the characters in a better way. Would love a reading vlog on all the books in the series, excited to see what your thoughts are :)
Yesss I would love watching an ACOTAR reading vlog if you are doing one 😆 I read King of Wrath and I LOVED ITT!! I’m so excited for you to read it!! And I also just bought From Lukov With Love too, can’t wait to read it!
The made series by Danielle Lori is amazing! Definitely give it a try!! The only mafia series I like. Yes it’s bit darker cause it’s mafia. But it’s actually a good series in my opinion especially compared to other mafia books. And it’s not that dark I’ve definitely read darker books than these. 2nd and 3rd books are absolute gems! My faves!
I want you to blindly pick your November TBR like wrap the books label 123 etc and in a jar write these numbers mix and choose can I see that video pleaseee
mariana zapata books are slowwwwwwwburn. i think you’ll like lukov more than winnipeg because the wall of winnipeg is literally the slowest book i’ve ever read (it’s still good though). i loved lukov, THE BANTER
I read the Acotar series and loved every book. The first Marcos series I read was The Made series and really enjoyed them. I also read A Thousand Boy Kisses which I recommend to you, very good book but you will need tissues. Love Colleen Hoover and read Verify awesome book. I hope you enjoy all of these books as well.
I finally read the ACOTAR series over the last few months it’s basically romance novels with a hint of drama. It reminds me of Fae version of Twilight in I hated Feyre as much as I hated Bella lol but overall it was a great read. You will enjoy it
Loved this haul! Hope you're enjoying the Ocean View series as much as Morgan Elizabeth enjoyed writing it, that's all I have to say. 💛✨ I have a personally fun question for you. What's your favorite romance read of 2022?

I ordered 4 books last night😀
I have a bookmark that says “I have no shelf control” with overflowing shelves of books in the back!
@@madelineheinle4131 I think I saw a bookmark like that the other day and I wonna buy it so bad because it’s so relatable!!

the sweetest oblivion series was SO good. when i got back into reading it was the first series i read and i absolutely loved it. to this day, the second book in this series is one of my faves
Awh!! That makes me so excited to read it
I really think you are going to love ACOTAR even though it is out of your comfort zone! It is definitely more romance based than most fantasy!🥰
Ooo that makes me so excited!!
The ACOTAR series is a great way to start dipping your toes in fantasy. Since it's a fantasy romance, it's a great bridge.
Awh yay!! So happy I got the books :)
Yes to an ACOTAR reading vlog!! This is one of my favorite series of all time, if not my absolute favorite!!!❤️❤️
I’m soooo excited!
