THE QUEEN IS BACK! WE’VE MISSED YOU!

Lord of the Rings: Return of the Queen. IM LITERALLY SCREAMING INSIDEEEE

"A wide spread Epidemic kind of scares me" *Coronavirus:"How bout a pandemic then?*

13:09, honey youve got a big storm coming 😂😂😂

HANNAH, MY LOVE, I'M SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU! YOUR HAIR LOOKS BEAUTIFUL AS ALWAYS AND YOU JUST LOOK GORGEOUS I'M GONNA GET ALL EMOTIONAL I MISSED YOU AND YOUR VOICE AND YOUR ADORABLE PERSONALITY THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING THE TIME TO MAKE THIS VIDEO BUT DON'T PUSH YOURSELF TO MAKE ANY VIDEOS IF YOU DON'T WANT TO! WE ALL UNDERSTAND BUT GOD I'M SMILING SO MUCH THANK YOU FOR THIS

I screamed. My love for her... I can't...

“Shadow of the Wind is one of the best books ever.” You’re right and you should say it louder !!

I can’t adequately express the joy I felt when I saw this. So happy you’re back! You have such a calming presence that makes all your videos such a pleasure to watch.

After Dark was one of my favorite books for like 8 years. lol. Its what turned me onto Murakami's work. Its a very dreamy book... but I remember finishing and being like...."I really loved that, but I don't know why........" So with that said... don't have insanely high expectations, just be open to it.

There’s something about you saying you’ve come back home that makes me feel back at home. It felt so relaxing and calming to watch a video from you 💘

I fell in love with “The Night Circus” 🎪 and read “The Starless Sea” thanks to you! These are now 2 of my all time favorite books!! Thank you for that! 💜 SO GLAD TO SEE YOU BACK!! You were truly missed my dear!

I abslutely LOVE how excited and passionated you get when you talk about books and how much they mean to you! Love you, thank you for your inspiration!

I’m about 30% into “The Starless Sea” and it’s one of the greatest books I think I’ve ever had the privilege of reading. I hope you love it too! Lots of beautiful imagery and it makes you feel the magic. Lots of love -J

I’m so happy to see you again! I genuinely hope you’re happy and that you’ll stick around!❤️

You've definitely been missed. Welcome back Hannah, I'm so happy to see you doing and feeling better ❤️

I love how chill your reviews are! Your presence is calming

Yess I’m so glad to see you back!! Hoping that you’re doing better and healthier, love your videos ❤️

Yessss! Thx for coming back! Take as much time as you need, we’re always here for you! ❤️

Hannah: Diseases really scare me Me, three months later: 👁👄👁

Seeing you standing in front of these bookshelves makes my heart so so happy ❤️ welcome back, we all missed you!

We will always love you Hannah! That means support when you’re not uploading AND supporting it when you do! Love you Hannah 💜

haven’t watched yet (i am just about to!) but instantly smiled when i saw this in my sub box. i love your videos and you inspire me to read more

Welcome back Hannah, youve been missed and now youve just added many books to my TBR too

Girl - you have no need to apologise at all! It is just the biggest joy to see you back gracing our screens with your wonderful smile and huge hearted soul xxx

So glad you're back! I love your videos! I'm Chilean, so in school we actually read several books by Isabel Allende, and my favorite by far is "The House of the Spirits" o "La Casa de los Espíritus". It is such a beautiful and special novel, I'm sure you're going to love it. Also, I really recommend to you the works of Gabriel García Márquez, especially "One Hundred Years of Solitude" and "Chronicle of a Death Foretold", they are so amazing and unique stories.

Owwwww! You made 20/02/2020 even more special! Grand Welcome to your world again, my dear ❤️

You are my favorite book tube vlogger. Your taste in books is so similar to what I like. Thank you for making videos! Sometimes I get stuck and I just don’t know what to read, but I have a huge craving for books, and your videos have helped me so much.

*Is currently watching this as COVID-19 goes on a world tour* Me: Wow, I like how some of these books are relatable O__O

Welcome back! Even though we missed you a ton, you can always take another break

I have so much homework but I stopped everything to watch this!!! I'm so glad you posted, and I hope you're doing well!

Hannah - I’m so glad you’re back and hope you’re well! When I saw your face pop up in my feed I got so excited - I get many of my favorite reads from your recommendations!

Sat down to read and drink coffee to start off the day, saw this on my recommended video, and I decided watching this was more important. I'm so glad you're back. You were my first booktuber, and I've missed you because you're so sweet and amazing. There's something about your demeanor that just brings me peace, and I love you for it.

I clicked in this SO fast!!! I’m so happy to see you and excited to watch this video! You were the first Booktuber I watched and I love your channel!!

I'm offline for 2 days and HANNAH COMES BACK? I missed my favourite KZfaqr coming backkkk

So glad you're back!! I LOVED The Starless Sea so much that I cried during the last 100 pages simply because I didn't want it to end! It's definitely my new favorite book of all time so I hope you love it!!

I was so excited when you mentioned Carlos Ruiz Zafon!!!!! The Angel's Game is one of my favourite books of all time!!! So excited for you to continue the series!!

You’re the reason I fell inove with booktube, glad you’re back queen!

You’re back!! We’ve missed you! I’ve just finished reading the Night Circus because of you and it is literally the most beautiful thing I’ve ever read. Thank you for loving it!

HANNAH, it's so nice to see you again, i've missed you so much 💛 you always inspire me to pick up a book from my shelf and start reading. i really love watching your videos!

Mental health is a tough thing to deal with, especially during the winter, so never feel bad for taking some well-deserved self-care. I'm so glad to hear you're coming out of your reading slump since I've been struggling with one to, and you always inspire me to read again. Also, so glad for the Truly Devious shout out. It was literally the book that reminded me how much I loved reading.

Seeing Hannah upload has made my day❤️ We love you so much✨✨

I’m so glad you’re back. I was actually just wondering how you were doing the other day ❤️

So good to see you! Missed watching your videos 💕

Welcome back, Hannah!!! So glad you took the time to take care of YOU! It is so WONDERFUL to see you again. Love and lots of hugs!!! And yes, I am looking at "The Truthwitch" series as next on my TBR along with "The Priory of the Orange Tree." We will plow through these behemoth books together.

You always have the best recommendations for the best books and all the books you have picked out I ended up loving them!!!! Keep up your amazing work!

Glad you’re back, Hannah. You’ve inspired me to give booktube a try too, looking forward to more tips and insights 😊✌🏼📚

Super super excited your back while you were gone I watched every single one of your videos and bought every book that you mentioned as good so those are all my books I want to read this year!!❤️

hannah I'm so glad that you're finally backkkkkk! 💗 kweennn bless us with another bookshelf tour please 🙏⭐

I just finished reading "Song Of Achilles" and i cannot even explain how happy i am to see it in your video. I hope you share your reviews on it !!!!

I am so happy that there’s an Isabel Allende book in this list! My mom used to read a lot of her books. I’m latin myself and I love that there’s a book by her in your list!! 🥰

SHE IS BACKKK. i can’t describe how much i miss you 💜💜💜

Welcome back!💖 Your videos always put me in a good mood and I am so glad that you're back after that needed break. I hope you have fun filming again💕

I literally cannot WAIT to get my hands on Chain of Gold! I've been waiting for the trilogy for yearssssss

The same reason why I have been trying so hard to read A Tale of Two Cities.... The curiosity when Will and Tessa talk about it all the time in the Infernal Devices is just crazy.... By the way I am a new admirer of your channel, Ma'am.... Just love your videos!!! 😊

So happy you're back!! The house of the spirits is so good, I love Isabel Allende! Hope you enjoy it and every other book on this list 💙

So glad you're back! 💜 I need to read The Dark Vault too, Schwab is my absolute favourite author and it's one of the only books I haven't read by her.

Song of Achilles was my first physical read of the year I went in knowing nothing about the myth aaaaaand ended up crying in the break room at work 😂 you’ve been warned

I'm making my own book list while watching this, because I you recommend good stories! I hope you have a great weekend 💜

Please, please stick around. It's so lovely to see you back! You have enriched my reading so much. ❤

I’m so glad you’re back. I literally just finished reading the Infernal Devices series for the first time last night and it was fantastic. I can’t wait to hear what happens in the sequel 🙈🙈

Murakami is amazing! I would definitely suggest starting with Norwegian Wood, such a brilliant book and I think it is a great place for someone who is new to Murakami to start :)

Circe was incredible! It took me through so many emotions, that’s how you know it was good! If you liked that you should read Stephen Fry’s books, ‘Heroes’ and ‘Mythos’

Imma crying!!! I missed you a lot, like seriously. I was constantly checking on channel if there was a new video. Finally!

So glad you’re back!! I hope you’re feeling so much better 💕🥰

About murakami, I'd like to recommend "the wind up bird chronicle" for the crazy surrealism and it's a very good starting point, i believe you'll love it! and if you want something less crazy "south of the border, west of the sun" is also a great option!

When you said “series”, my phone stopped the video and Siri responded😂 I think she missed your videos just as much as I did haha; so glad you’re making videos again!

Every video on this channel makes me feel so relaxed and I just can't explain it! love you ♡

I’ve missed you soooo much! Your voice is so comforting. Welcome back!❤️

omg omg i missed you. i don’t have much to say because the video just started but hi ily

a song of achilles was amazing! be ready to have a good cry after reading it

I missed you’re videos soooo much. I’m sooo happy you’re back

So glad you’re back! I picked up the night circus on your recommendation. I’m really liking it so far!

We have a lot of similar books on our to-read list! I'm excited and daunted by the prospect ofreading The Priory of the Orange Tree but I can't resist a big book like that haha. It's so nice to see you back and I hope you make more videos soon :)

Severance really out here prepping us for COVID-19 huh

Welcome back, so happy your with us again. We've missed you.

Omg you are back!!!! Such a great video (most of the books you mentioned I added my 2020 tbr) thank you ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

OMG!! When I heard you say that you wanted to you read Murakami I had to stop the video for a moment a process all my emotions - Murakami is my favorite author EVER I am so exited for you to get to know him. I think you should start with Nowegian Wood, is not that big as other of his books, but also I absolutely LOVE The wind-up bird chronicle

You said you liked Camelot, have you ever watched Merlin from BBC? It’s a great Arthur round table retelling if you haven’t 🤷🏻‍♀️ it’s one of my favourite shows

Welcome back! I am so happy to see you back - although you are absolutely entitled to any and as many breaks and times off as you need and want. I will applaud every time you come back :) such a good start of the weekend to watch this!

It is soo good to have you back!! Absolutely Missed you. Also a tale of two cities is amazing💜💜💜

Norwegian Wood by murakami! My friend started me off with this and it’s really good~

I watched a film recently that, interestingly enough, roused a deep passion within me to pursue literature. My curiosity took me to KZfaq and I found your channel within about an hour of perusing BookTube. Hannah, I instantly fell in love with not only your channel, but your calm (and lovely) demeanor. Your adoration of storytelling through literature inspires me so much! Your insights are such a gift, and I am so happy to have you back. Sending so much love to you!

Girl yes always take time for yourself. I'm just so happy you are feeling so much better 💕

Hannah, it's so wonderful to see you upload again! (Although please don't pressure yourself, your health is the most important thing) You and your videos have been such a great part of my life (which sounds odd but it's true!) You are literally the reason I started reading again, and I found my favourite book ever through your channel, so thank you!

OH MY GOD I’ve missed you so much 🥺❤️✨

Welcome back! Hope you’re feeling better now. We missed you so much! OMG you HAVE to read Murakami! I suggest you start with Norwegian Wood. It’s one of my favorite books of all time and it’s a good introduction to his other works. Hope you will pick it soon, or any of his other books and I cannot wait to hear what you’ll think about them!

So great to have you back! I've missed you!

It's so great to see you back and you look so well! ☺

“kafka on the shore” by Murakami is amazing! it messed with my brain a bit, but god damnit it was amazing!!! i sincerely recommend it.

I just finished Station 11 as the rise of coronavirus news took flight... what an interesting time to read that book, but I loved it and can’t wait for the glass hotel!

Love your video backdrop. The bookshelf and fairy lights really nice.

I was having the worst day and was crying for hours and then I saw this and it turned my whole day around. welcome back, I love you so much.

I'm so glad that your back booktube was dead without you.

I just read The Diviners this year and really enjoyed it!! It’s like, if Stalking Jack the Ripper & Ninth House had a baby, really! :D I’m looking forward to getting stuck into the rest of the books now (especially via audio). I hope you enjoy The King of Crows. 🙌🏻

It's so great to see you again. You look and sound just fantastic ! My TBR just got bigger 😊

I am sooooo happy to see you back!! I'm glad you enjoyed your time off ☺️
