I completely agree with being frustrated when characters don't stand up for themselves, I always scream at them to just say what's bothering them😂 Also, I've noticed your nails, and I think they look so much better when you do them yourself🥹🥹
They still look great. I think I just prefer your technique😅 Forgot to say, yes F1 these two races has been so boring. Hoping Australia race brings more excitement!
I totally agree with you about F1. I'm not a Max Verstappen fan either but he dominates and wins practically every race. I was hoping this season would be different. Lately, I've been more interested in the off the track drama more than the actual races. I love your channel by the way.
it makes things very boring doesn’t it!! i like him as a person but never been a proper fan, would much rather a bit more of a mixture in terms of race winners🤣 and thank you!🤍
The f1 Little camo in this vlog was my favourite!! I definitely wanna read Emily Wildes books!! Also I can tell how frustrating all your Auto leaving from the clips. Anyway I indeed enjoy your videos!!
What you said about two twisted crowns DEFINITELY made sense!!!!! i'm pretty sure I was in the same mindframe haha! kinda on a slump, just wanted to have been done reading it, but at the same time it was so good! and the romance made me feel a way too, it was just so masterful the way the author crafted the chemistry between them :D
F1 and book girlies unite! I have to say, I'm a Max fan so I very much enjoy watching him sweep the field lol, but I also like Oscar! Who's your favorite driver(s)?
I am really over the Max domination (have been for a year, let's be real 😆) I'd love to see someone else win for a change! I just want the season to get a bit more exciting and have a close fight. ANYWAY great video Ellen! I like your wrapped books videos 😊
I totally understand what you meant about how you felt while reading Two Twisted Crowns! I get in these kind of half way reading slumps lol And I thought this was fun! Would love to see some more videos like this. :)💜
I adored Emily Wilde last year and the I enjoyed the sequel even more. I still need to get to Two Twisted Crowns, but I loved One Dark Window. It's great you enjoyed your reads for the most part in this vlog! ✨
I feel like you'll really enjoy check and mate (I did so much omg) it IS YA but I felt like it didn't read like a YA at all. Also, I really love these wrapped up books videos and thought maybe you could do one with a certain theme somewhere in the future (if you'd like ofc).
@@bookswithellen Maybe something like only wrapping romance books? Or during a season only adding seasonal books to the tbr. Or maybe add like 2 books that have been on your tbr for a long time. Hope this helps!
A UK small businessyou should try is The Alpha Loft!! She doesn't do bookish merch, she does music merch, but it's very similar cosy vibes, she's got like Taylor, Hozier, Noah Kahan and a couple others!!
it’s so endearing you counted the books in front of the camera so we knew you weren’t joking as if we’d suspect you’d lie about that 😭😭 oh Ellen u gem 🫶🏼‼️
Now that you’ve read “The wall of Winnipeg and me” what are your rankings for the Mariana Zapata books you’ve read so far? or would you make a video for that?
oooh good question!! i think my ranking would be: 1) all rhodes lead here 2) from lukov with love 3) wall or winnipeg and me but they’re all 4 stars or above for me!! so really liked them all🤍
@@bookswithellen Thank you 🥺.. I just read “From Lukov with love” and as someone who’s not big on romance, I really liked her writing.. Adding the rest to my TBR! 🤞🫶
I just bought Emily Wild’s Encyclopedia of Fairy’s because of this video and a few other reviews and I can’t wait to read it! I’d love it if you did some more wrapped up books I love it!
I haven’t read the wall of Winnipeg but I definitely feel that way in other books where I just want them to say the issue like tell them what they did I want them to feel bad 😂
maybe you could use the month you started your channel as an "excuse" to do wrapped up reading vlogs oder when you hit a certain amount of followers:) (if u want to) I love your channel and I am obsessed with your videos recently💗
Emily wilde is such a pretty looking book ... may just have to pick it up based on that 🙈 Im glad that you were able to salvage the tapes for your videos! Should ask Ami for a book x F1 embroidered top 😉 No one will be upset if you don't upload exactly on your normal days - we are all human! I hate book slumps - when they happen i just take a break from reading or re read one of my favourite books. Hope you're able to get out of it soon 🤞 Also I love wrapped up videos - the element of not knowing what will be picked is exciting!
it’s so gorgeous isn’t it!! i really think you’d like it, very whimsical and fun, doesn’t take itself too seriously which is a nice change from super high fantasy!! and you might be onto something there with the f1 jumper🤭 book slumps are awful - i’ve picked up a fast paced romance since and it is going by super quick, so hopefully it’s dragging me out!!!
I've been in a weird book slump for like the last 2 years...I have some deteriorating health problems and I've found that the worse I feel, all I want to read is books that have nothing to do with reality at all and I used to love so many genres.... So I guess its not a total book slump, but yet, it still does feel like a book slump because I want to want to read all of these books and yet, I just have no motivation to read them....if that makes sense. And I know just what you mean because I just forced myself to finish up my library books so I could take them back and I felt the exact same way - objectively, they were all really good, I just did not want to be reading them, lol.
I just read Check & Mate and I really enjoyed it, but definitely don’t go into it expecting a lot of romance 😅, there’s not as much as her other books.
I like the car clip. I think you should do it a little more often. Especially if you feel like you keep filming in the same 3 spots 😂 I love a good wrapped up video
anytime I see someone reading Mariana Zapata I get mad at myself becasue I haven't read any of her books yet and I love slow burn and everybody loves her books. I need to get on that already
hiii, Ellen! sunidhi this side! CAN WE GET SOME VIDEO LIKE - "readin' books read by xyz celeb/model/writer" i'd love to see you making them! (and please speak more, 11 mins is not enough hahaha) sending luv.
there’s a constant beep when i include the lil clips that didn’t have audio (me unwrapping emily wilde) - sorry about that!! but that should only be for a few seconds. i can’t hear beeping anywhere else in the video!
if any of you were considering ordering from literaturestitches i now have a promo code!! ELLENCATHERINE10 for 10% off🤭✨
No better way to start the day than to open UA-cam to an Ellen video 😩😩
hehehe love u!!!
Also a great way to end the day 😊
I completely agree with being frustrated when characters don't stand up for themselves, I always scream at them to just say what's bothering them😂
Also, I've noticed your nails, and I think they look so much better when you do them yourself🥹🥹
oh no i like this set of nails🥲 i’m taking a break from doing them myself so probs won’t have my own ones for a while!
They still look great. I think I just prefer your technique😅
Forgot to say, yes F1 these two races has been so boring. Hoping Australia race brings more excitement!
I’m actually really glad to know that I’m not the only one who feels this way when characters don’t stand up for themselves

F1 and book girlies unite! I have to say, I'm a Max fan so I very much enjoy watching him sweep the field lol, but I also like Oscar! Who's your favorite driver(s)?
lando and charles are my two faves!! although i feel like i support half the grid hahahaha, i love most of the drivers
I really really enjoy these videos where you wrap up the books and do reading vlogs on them!! Some of my fav videos by you!
i love filming them as well!! defo wanna do more🥰
@@bookswithellen yay!!
I really love your video's! They are amazing and I would love to see more wrrapped up book videos!
Figuring out where you need to go for a future appointment is such an anxious girlie vibe. Definitely relate.

Feeling you on the life slump and living for rhe weekend 😅

oooh perfect, i’m so excited to read it!! and a theme would be really cool - do you have any theme ideas?🥰

alive and wells by bailey Hannah is such a good cowboy romance. she is a Indy author.

I haven’t read the wall of Winnipeg but I definitely feel that way in other books where I just want them to say the issue like tell them what they did I want them to feel bad 😂
LITERALLY!! irritates me so much🤣
maybe you could use the month you started your channel as an "excuse" to do wrapped up reading vlogs oder when you hit a certain amount of followers:) (if u want to)
I love your channel and I am obsessed with your videos recently💗
omg such a cool idea!! thank you!!
Emily wilde is such a pretty looking book ... may just have to pick it up based on that 🙈
Im glad that you were able to salvage the tapes for your videos!
Should ask Ami for a book x F1 embroidered top 😉

Hey It’s Ami from literature stitches thank you so so much for sharing! 🥹😍❤️

I just read Check & Mate and I really enjoyed it, but definitely don’t go into it expecting a lot of romance 😅, there’s not as much as her other books.
hhahaha thank you i will keep that in mind🫡
I’ll pick up Emily wildes book again
It took a while for me to get into it too
I am a new subscriber and I'm loving you're vibes 💛
thank you for being here🥹🫶🏻
I was waiting for this video 🩷 love it 🥰
🥹🥰
I like the car clip. I think you should do it a little more often. Especially if you feel like you keep filming in the same 3 spots 😂 I love a good wrapped up video
also yes about the needing a trip out, for me my trip out is food shopping at Asda 🙃
mine is usually a trip to the big tesco🤣🤣
@@bookswithellen I went to a big Tesco today. Got a nice door mat that says welcome and has flowers round the border. Did I need it? Absolutely not.
No because I just bought 4 of literature stitches jumpers because of this
OMG YESSSS i love her stuff!!!!
I just subscribed but I already love your videos !!!!!
thank you!!
@@bookswithellen ☺️ just found out you are an f1 girlie as well !
Ellen can you do reading your subscribers fav book for a week
i’ve done one before but defo wanna do another one!!
anytime I see someone reading Mariana Zapata I get mad at myself becasue I haven't read any of her books yet and I love slow burn and everybody loves her books. I need to get on that already
YES GIRL!!!! read all rhodes lead here it’s her best i think🫡
hiii, Ellen!
sunidhi this side! CAN WE GET SOME VIDEO LIKE - "readin' books read by xyz celeb/model/writer"
i'd love to see you making them!
(and please speak more, 11 mins is not enough hahaha)
sending luv.
also congrats on 15k
thank you so much!!
Wrap them up in coloured aluminium foil for Easter 😂
🤣🤣
I don’t think I’ve ever been so early lol
hehehe
Hey love, have u read defy the night series by Bridget kemmerer, if so, would love to hear your opinions x
i haven’t!! i’ve read her cursebreaker series though and really liked it at the time x
You should do it with a random number generator so that it’s more random
i use a random number generator in this video!
@@bookswithellen oh ok sorry I didn’t realize I wasn’t done the vid yet
does anyone else have this constant beeping in the background of some audio when watching this video?
there’s a constant beep when i include the lil clips that didn’t have audio (me unwrapping emily wilde) - sorry about that!! but that should only be for a few seconds. i can’t hear beeping anywhere else in the video!
I thought I was the only one who suffers with this year's F1 season... Both races were so boring and it hurts to say this :/
it’s so dull isn’t it🥲 feel like i could fall asleep watching them at this point
Can’t wait to read one dark window duology! It’s on my TBR
it’s so good!!
Finally found a reason to buy Emily Wilde's Encyclopedia of Fairies😭🩷Love the comfort space here🤍
i hope you love it!!!!
Idk what to comment but i want to so im just gonna put spring feeling emojis 🫣: 🌷🩷✨
