Okay but not only are the book recs amazing, the whole set up of this video is giving cozy vibes!! The sweater, the bedding, the Christmas glass!! *chefs kiss*
SARA!!! I love you and your videos. You have such a nice and calming vibe ❤️❤️. And I always get excited whenever you or destiny post. They’re my treat at the end of the day.
I have to say I liked One Dark Window but I just finished Two Twisted Crowns and it was amazing! Definitely my favorite between the two. I was concerned going into the books with how dark the vibes were but once you’re reading it doesn’t affect you in a negative way and actually by the end of Two Twisted Crowns I was tearing up it made me so emotional. Very good duology! I’m also obsessed with Seven Year Slip, I feel like that book is underrated for how good it is, it should be on everyone’s Tbr honestly and I loved Divine Rivals, can’t wait for Ruthless Vows for to come out!
I have a few great recommendations for ya: A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, Comfort and Joy by Kristin Hannah, Skipping Christmas by John Grisham, Red Bird Christmas by Fannie Flagg and One Perfect Gift: A Culdee Creek Christmas by Kathleen Morgan....hope that you'll like and fully enjoy them and wait to see and hear what you think about each one of them, also I can't wait to hopefully see it in 1 of your recent videos, thanks in advance, happy bookmas and happy reading! Have a great day!
6:41 Adding this to my TBR 10:12 This is next up on my TBR. I can’t wait to read it. 12:56 Adding this to my TBR as well. 16:32 Thank you for recommending this series to me Sara. My favorites were A Taste Of Poison and Kiss Of The Selkie. 18:37 Can’t wait to read this. 20:14 I will,definitely be reading this, Kingdom Of The Wicked Trilogy and Hunting Prince Dracula.
It's been tradition for me to stay up late one night before Christmas and watch the Princess Switch! I don't know why I love that movie so much but it's such a fun watch
Typing this even before I see the video because just the notification lights up my entire mood. Also can we all just agree that bookmas is just the best thing. Like ever. Love you sara!❤
If you haven't, you should def read whiteout. It's kind of like a second book to Blackout, but it's a different plot and the characters are different, but they're both so cute and cozy and just perfect haha. It's a co-author book.
I got a few good recommendations from this video like One Day In December, The Hunting Party, and I already have plans to read Love and Other Words next year as well as Powerless, One Dark Window, and The Serpent and the Wings of Night.
i just started one dark window and I'm loving it so much so I'm excited to hear that you think the second one is the best one cause sometimes that doesn't happen lol but I think you should read the invisible life of addie larue if you haven't yet during winter. the writing of addie laruehas the same lyricism and beauty as divine rivals and the romance is so amazing and just the overall plot I think would fit your vibe really nicely 🥰
If you're ok with a heavier character driven thriller that's more of character growth story, I highly recommend Mud Vein by Tarryn Fisher. It's one of my all-time faves! There's a romantic subplot (clean), and the woman & her kind of ex are kidnapped in a house in the snow, and she has to deal with her past. Beautiful writing, emotional, and made me think of a couple things differently.
Another cozy video with loads of great recommendations, thank you Sara. I've been wanting to read Ghosted since you first recommended it, way back when. I'm currently reading The Kingdom of Sweets, a dark re-telling of The Nutcracker. it's soooo good
Sara is single-handedly saving finals week for me 😭
same 🥲📚
The only thing that motivates me to study the whole day for my exams is that at night along with dinner I get to treat myself to Sara’s bookmas !!🩷🩷

Can’t wait to have some holiday reads, tis the season!!
one day in December was my first 5 star read, it might be my one and only 6 star read just because how good it is
Which one on this list would you say is the cutest/sweetest? I love the House in the Cerulean Sea! I thought it was so wholesome.
i bought powerless today!!
I love your crew neck ❤️🔥⛄️
If you're ok with a heavier character driven thriller that's more of character growth story, I highly recommend Mud Vein by Tarryn Fisher. It's one of my all-time faves! There's a romantic subplot (clean), and the woman & her kind of ex are kidnapped in a house in the snow, and she has to deal with her past. Beautiful writing, emotional, and made me think of a couple things differently.
Rock paper scissors was so good!
I love your sweater it’s so cute 🥹
i love the sweater you are wearing
Love these kind of sit down videos❤
Sara how do you remember so many details about each book? Do you make notes for video talking points while you're reading it or remember it all?
Where’s your sweatshirt from it’s so cute 🥰
Another cozy video with loads of great recommendations, thank you Sara. I've been wanting to read Ghosted since you first recommended it, way back when. I'm currently reading The Kingdom of Sweets, a dark re-telling of The Nutcracker. it's soooo good
