Your makeup and hair is always so perfect!!!!!
As a kid I was super shocked that Hermione's name was pronounced differently and the huge fuss that the media made about it when Goblet of Fire was released. I made sure to avoid all spoilers (just knew her name was shown pronounciation) and remember so vividly thinking "how on earth am I going to remember it's pronounced like that, it's so weird and difficult!!"
Another big one is that I spent the first chapter of A Song of Ice and Fire not realising that Eddard is indeed Ned Stark (I'd seen the first 2 seasons before reading the book). So I genuinely spent the first 15? 20? pages thinking that Ned was looking over this Eddard bloke's shoulder and listening in on their conversation. It really confused me and still find it so hilarious, I had to reread the whole thing and it all made sense. hahaha
I just read Alanna for the first time a year ago, and I also thought George was at least in his 30s! It grossed me out when the romance happened for the same reason. Maybe because of his position, we assume he has to be older?
I also had a hard time in that book with Raoul and Roald. Those names are way too close for me to keep them straight.
YES TO THE THING ABOUT SEEING THE WORD YOU DISCOVER EVERYWHERE!!
I soooo feel that when there are multiple POVs and you just want one to hurry up because it's just not working for ya at the moment!
When I first read Kaz Brekker in SOC, I thought he was like 80 years old (because of the cane and description of clothes and characters) So when I continued to read, I realized how mistaken I was
WaresTheWolf Same!!
I had no idea how to pronounce Hermione's name when I first read it and got it very wrong, which I think is true for every pre-movie Harry Potter lover! Also in the Shades of Magic series I was thinking 'Leela' in my head and then in AGoS there was a scene where Lila speaks to a shopkeeper and she says something like "with this woman's accent, she's saying my name wrong like it's spelled Leela" and I felt so called out lol
marisdc I didn't know how to say Hermione either! And I read the first 3 books out loud to my younger brother and sister so I was saying wrong to them all that time! I didn't even realise I was wrong until Hermione was explaining to Krum how to say to her name in Goblet of Fire - haha I was so confused!
I even mispronounced it after GoF. I didn't get it right until the movie.
I had the very same thought of George in the Song of the Lioness series. I kept thinking he was so much older than she was for some reason.
I am right there with you on George, I had a slightly younger George Clooney figure in mind, I think because he is so high and powerful in his field, which is mostly older men too.
You are pronouncing Kvothe perfectly I listed to the audiobook the first time I read The Name of the Wind so the pronunciation stuck with me! PS love this book!
I struggled pronouncing Plutarch’s name from “The Hunger Games”. Now looking at it and knowing the pronunciation I don’t know how I struggled but I got so frustrated I just called him Pete. My guilty pleasure trope is definitely when a group of characters is all paired off at the end, I just find it super satisfying. And as far as a character I pictured wrong, well I read the “Matched” trilogy last year (they’re not great) and for some reason pictured Xander and Ky as having entirely different skin tones, I got through 2 books and somehow came to this realization 2/3 of the way through the last one.
YES THAT NEW WORD THING IS SO RELATABLE
about the thing when you see a word everywhere after you've first discovered it, you're not alone! i have experienced this with the word "trot"
I definitely thought George was older as well!!
I thought George was older too! I was so confused.
I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU ON THE SEEING A WORD FOR THE FIRST TIME AND THEN SEEING IT EVERYWHERE. IT HAPPENS TO ME ALL. THE. FREAKING. TIME. And I love it. 😉😊😍😍😍
The phenomenon of seeing a word for the first time and then seeing it everywhere is called the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon. Or simply, frequency illusion. (This can also be applied to things like noticing a purple car one day and then all of a sudden seeing more and more purple cars.) And to add to the fun, some people say that once they hear the name Baader-Meinhof, they see it pop up more and more. (:
Timothy Forest So true! I only just learned the term and now I see it everywhere!
I hear ya with the thing about learning a new word haha :D I heard the phrase "send someone to coventry" recently which basically means to ostracise someone and then as soon as I learned it, I saw it about five times in the same week haha
Have you read the Fever series by Karen Marie Moning? It's an amazing urban fantasy with a hate/love relationship. It's my favorite series and I love most of the books you do :)
A character I imagined completely different was the love interest from Keeping The Moon by Sarah Dessen? When he gets introduced he is getting out of his car which is filled with puppet heads (creepy as fuck) and I thought he was a weird old homeless guy or something. Whem the romance plot began, I had to put the book down because I was so weirded out and only realised afterwards that the guy is supposed to be a teenager too. I tried to continue but couldn't, he was still a creepy old homeless man in my mind 😂😂😂
I hadn't heard of this tag before! Sounds fun!
Dude. Duuuuuuuude. I DID THE SAME THING WITH GEORGE!!! I was so grossed out originally. How weird is that?!
I TOTALLY misread George when I first read the Song of the Lioness series. I mean, I caught on quick enough, once things became romantic, but at first, I was really thrown. (Also, I was like, 11, so that was probably part of it... ha!)
It's called the Baader-Meinhoff phenomenon.
Did the same thing as you said in the 1st question, but with a character from Poison Study by Maria V Snyder...
Somehow I thought her instructor was really old for her, like mid forties haha also I pictured him as being short, with greasy hair and a weird nose.
I was so shocked when she got romantically involved with him...
Girl what do you wear on your lips? It's gorgeous
I Agree! I love the color!
I've asked this a couple of times and would still love to know.
I was pretty off picturing George as well. I pictured him in a monk's outfit for some reason.
I love Hate to Love so much!
Nice, subtle COBAB shoutout there, Catriona 😆.
0:45 OHMYGOD I MISREAD GEORGE'S DESCRIPTION AND IMAGINED HIM AS A MIDDLE-AGED GUY, TOO!! There must be some sort of Mandela effect going on with that book because WOW was I wrong about my first impression of him. xD
How Fun! I was so quick to watch that the video was two times smaller on my phone than usual lol I’ve definitely declined plans for reading. Why cancel when you know your life is reading?!? Lol
According to minute 3:07: Yes, all the time!!!!
Ohhh I still need to do this tag. Because I have the best story for the first question haha. Also HOW DID YOU MESS UP GEORGE’S APPEARANCE HAHAHA HE WAS LIKE MY LITERARY CRUSH 😂😂😂
Yesss I am so weirdly into hate-love relationships haha
Oh my gosh, I am SO surprised that there's so many people commenting who also thought George was older! I was talking to a friend yesterday and she also said the same. That's so bizarre!?
Little Book Owl I’m honestly almost as surprised at how many other people have even read the series 😂 it’s so rare that I ever meet someone who has! Either way this video makes me want a reread 😂
For mispronouncing the character's name: my dad used to say Hermione like "her-me-own" when reading it to me as a kid, so we both called her that until we saw the movies. 😂
And I'm the same way with reading deadlines...if I have to read the book by a certain amount of time...I'm likely to not even read it haha.
Can we get a recommended reads for hate to love trope ?! Pretty please, cause ya girl is in on that bandwagon too...
This tag seems like a lot of fun!
I love poking fun at myself! 😂
I think we all pronounced Hermione wrong bahahahahha until goblet of Fire when she’s teaching Krum how to say her name 🤣
I love (absolutely LuRVe!!) hate to love! So much better than insta-love
“That description!” 🤣
I hate reading when I’m “supposed” to! It’s crazy!
Great tag video!
❤️Nicole
OMG I made the same mistake about George - that's crazy!
I used to always pronounce Carlisle from Twilight as Car-s-lee instead of Car-lyle
The word thing happens to me all the time.
100% Hermione for question number 2. My mom read the book to me and she always pronounced the name “Her-me-own”. When I saw the first movie I was floored 😂
If you like hate to love tropes, check out The Hating Game. :)
Sarah J. Maas books! I love her writing but I have no clue how she comes up with her names.
Up until Queen of Shadows, I pronounced Chaol as Cole. I also pronounced Manon as Mannon until after I read Empire of Storms.
I actually think I have the same misconception about George... which means I need to go back and read the books, clearly.
ooh this tag is so fun! haha got to love the hate to love trope :D
Oh I remember this tag going around so long ago! I love the questions!
I mispronounced Hermione when I first read the series. I also thought Jace from the Mortal Instruments was a brunette until reaching the Infernal Devices.
3:08 SO TRUE OMG
The Kvothe thing drives me crazy! Just because the book says it's pronounced similar to "quothe" doesn't mean it IS pronounced "quothe"!!
+asialove88 THIS THIS THIS
Even just the name of this video sums me up😂😂😂😂
You crack me up!!!! 😹😻
The Name of the Wind one always throws me off because in the book it says his name is pronounced like 'Quoth' so I'm like how should I pronounce it???
Hahah I think it means it rhymes with "Quothe" but has a V squeezed in there. It's a tricky one!
Lol lol❤️😂😂😂😂
I was so ready for you to say vagina when you said Virginia :p
7 minutes late!
