Ok that was such a cute ad! I use native but it makes me want to buy more! Lol. I loved it! 😂 such a great job! 💖

Your native ad had me cracking up, you are the best!

Pleeeeease share where your rainbow shirt is from!! 😍

You look like the personification of every 90s sitcom and I love it! Great video, Lex :))

That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon is also the book that made me happiest this year! I think the audiobooks are still on Scribd!

Yeah for another lover of Fall. Even more brownie points if you love Winter, too.

My favorite book so far this year is The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches. The Song of Achilles is a close second though.🌼

THIS IS WHY I LOVE YOU, LEXI--I SWEAR, OUR TASTE IN BOOKS ARE SO SIMILAR! I LOVE THAT YOU LOVE 'ALONE WITH YOU IN THE ETHER' BECAUSE IT'S ONE OF MY FAVORITES AS WELL. AND ALMOST ALL BOOKS THAT YOU MENTIONED, I'VE ALSO READ AND LOVED. THIS JUST FILLS ME WITH SO MUCH JOY AND VALIDATION 🥹🥹💖

I just finished What Lies in the Woods. Last year I read Rules for Vanishing. Now I want to read all her books. You've talked about that popular book club before and I thought you'd joined. It surprises me that someone's place in the book club has to be fought for every month. That seems like a difficult way to create a comfortable atmosphere of readers. I could understand if there was a rule about missing meetings and losing your spot, but ..... the idea of a monthly lottery makes me uncomfortable. Hmmm. I've read a lot of five star books so far this year. If I need to choose just one, I'm gonna go with A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers because it was exactly the right book, at exactly the right time, telling me exactly what I needed to hear. It's always special when that happens.

SO EXCITED!! 💛🩵🩵💛🏝️💛📚📚📖📙📙⛱️🌞🌞🌞💛🌊🌊💛🏝️📚📚📖📙⛱️🏝️🌞🏝️💛🌊🩵🏝️📚📚📖📙⛱️🌞🌞🌞🏝️🩵🌊🏝️🏝️📙📚📚📖⛱️🌞🌞🏝️🏝️

YES Alone With You in the Ether! Same! Absolutely stunning

🌼 I’m currently reading The Book that Wouldn’t Burn by Mark Lawrence and it’s shaping up to be my favorite book of the year so far. Gives strong Piranesi vibes. Very surreal world and you are just dropped in to figure it out as you go along. Here’s the Goodreads summary: “A boy has lived his whole life trapped within a vast library, older than empires and larger than cities. A girl has spent hers in a tiny settlement out on the Dust where nightmares stalk and no one goes. The world has never even noticed them. That's about to change. Their stories spiral around each other, across worlds and time. This is a tale of truth and lies and hearts, and the blurring of one into another. A journey on which knowledge erodes certainty, and on which, though the pen may be mightier than the sword, blood will be spilled and cities burned”

Hope you have a beautiful weekend Lexie and thanks for week of videos 🌊🏝️🩵🏝️🌞🌞🌊🏝️📙📙💛⛱️⛱️📖⛱️🏝️📚🌞🌞🌞🌊🏝️🩵🌊📙📙💛⛱️📖🌎🌞🌊🏝️🌊📚📚🌊

I love how you still include books in a sponsorship about deodorant 😂 my favorite books of the year so far are The Girl Who Fell Beneath The Sea and The Dollmaker of Krakow ❤️

Alone with you and the either one of my favorite this year so OBSESSED 🌞📚🏝️🌞🌊🌊🌊🌞📚📙📙📙⛱️💛🌊🌊🌞🏝️🏝️🌞🌊🌊🌞📚📙📙⛱️⛱️🌊🩵🩵🌊🌞🏝️🏝️🏝️📖⛱️💛🌊🩵🩵🌊📚🏝️📚🌞📚

Very favorite: The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

Yes yes yes please read fourth wing!!! I think it's my fav book so far this year. I also recently loved the Stationery Shop and The Kind Worth Killing🌼

And I’m a winter girl, been waiting for it since march! Winter is coming ❄️

So hard to pick just one favorite but some of my favs/5 ⭐️ reads this year include Fourth Wing, All the Dangerous Things, Happy Place, Weyward, and Vera Wong’s Unsolicited Advice for Murderers!

My favorite so far this year is Remarkably Bright Creatures! I'm currently reading Finlay Donovan is Killing It -- and LOVING IT

Fun video! I loved hearing about your favs! My favorite book I finished reading this year was The Last Argument of Kings by Joe Abercrombie - a grim, dark fantasy. The Ten Thousand Doors of January is probably my second favorite. I enjoyed it so much. The most beautiful book I purchased this year is a special edition of The Marriage Portrait by Maggie O'Farrell - it's a UK full decorated hardcover edition. I haven't read it yet. Poetry wasn't in the mix but my favorite poetry collection so far is Winter Recipes from the Collective by Louise Gluck. Gorgeous. Thanks for your content! You always make me smile!

Well I've reread the first 3 HP books and harry potter will forever be my favorite. As far as first time reads for the year, Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow has been my favorite. 🌼

🌼 Love watching your channel and always look forward to your content…especially when it’s about Summerween or Halloween book recommendations!! Give me all the creepy:) Also, thanks for the book recommendation of These Fleeting Shadows…loved it!!❤

I usually skip the native talk from most channels but this was creative 😂❤

🌼 Favorite book of the year was Outland by Dennis E. Taylor. This is book one in the Quantum Earth Series. University students in western USA are working hard to finish school projects. All have a different specialty, and all their talents are needed when Yellowstone shows signs of going supernova. This was action packed and had all the feels.

I enjoyed the heck out of Fourth Wing, I strongly agree with your statements on Half a Soul. I want (nay, need) to read That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon. There's too many favourites this year and we're only half way through. The Push, Kiss Her Once For Me, Nothing To See Here, How To Flirt With a Naked Werewolf, Fairy Tale (if you are reading this comment, clearly you can see that I am cheating A LOT but I would like to say that this is only a few of the ones I've really enjoyed.) Paladin's Grace, Mistborn, Silver Under Nightfall and In The Lives of Puppets. Thank you for coming to my book talk. :p

My favourite book I have read so far this year is Evil Roots: Killer Tales of the Botanical Gothic. I absolutely adore this and it did become a new favourite. I immediately ordered in From the Depths and other strange tales of the sea which is part of the same series, and the next I have my eye on is Holy Ghosts: Classical Tales of the Ecclesiastical Uncanny. And the types of books I want to read by the end of the year are anthologies. I think the next one I'll pick up, assuming I'll get to it before certain collections arrive is my Bram Stoker collection.

🌼 i’ve had a few favorites this year.. if i really, really have to choose one, i’d say godkiller by hannah kaner. i was also very positively surprised by pineapple street. did not expect to like it and had such a good time reading it. happy reading to everyone!

Fun Freakout! 💮

Your rainbow outfits🥹🌈❤love you Lexi!

Awww thanks so much for the shoutout Lexi, you're so sweet ❤ Meeting you in NYC was AMAZING and one of the highlights of my year so far 🥰 Also I just finished Fourth Wing and I LOVED it so please let me know your thoughts when you read it! 😍

🌼🌼🌼 I love watching your videos, they bring me joy 💛

🌼 Favourite book this year is a tie between Finlay Donovan is killing it and Daisy Darker. Both ⭐⭐⭐⭐. Haven't read a five star yet this year 📖🙁

You and others recommend That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon, and I knew the original version was no longer available. I was kicking myself for not grabbing it when it was first offered as an e-book. Then, hehe, I scrolled through my Kindle the other day and, OMG, there it was! I HAD bought it! I was so happy to have been mistaken. ;) Reading it now and it's silly and sweet and funny and I'm loving it.

A fun book I read was "The Dating App Confessions" by Tindell. And a self-help satire called "You Suck" by Amigo.

🌼🌼🌼 I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Pineapple Street as well.💛

I’m on this cozy mystery kick! I’m reading Murder she wrote books hahahaha

Grady Hendrix really is the best 🎉 I loved How to Sell a Haunted House too!

I think my favourite book by far that I've read this year is the Last Russian Doll by Kristen Loesch. It is historic fiction set in Russia, and it follows three generations of women in three significant time periods in Russia, the Russian Revolution in 1917, the siege of Leningrad (now St Petersburg) in 1942 and the purges of Stalin in the time of the Sovjet Union, ending with the Fall of the Iron Curtain in the early 90s of the last century. I didnt expect the book to make me feel as deeply as it did, but it left me thinking for sometime afterwards and I highly recommend!😊

Ohhhh I love the Mid Year Freakout Tag! How is it time for this already?!

🌼 your look is giving me reading rainbow vibes, and I love it ❤ My favourite book I have read this year is Legends and Lattes, followed closely by Everyone in my Family Has Killed Someone.

Your sponsor pitch in this video was bang on 😅😅 my favourite book this year so far is a tie between: All That Consumes Us, and A study in drowning... But I will try to answer the rest sometime soon ❤ untill then happy reading 📚

🌼 Thistlefoot by GennaRose Nethercott is probably my favourite so far this year.

I knew you were going to say Grady Hendrix! 🩷

🌼 I don't have a daisy emoji, but I can send you a buttercup! Love it! I enjoy watching your freak out videos, Lexi! They're really fun. Best books this year for me: 1. Creativity Inc. by Ed Catmull (about the founding of Pixar) 2. The Magician's Daughter by H.G. Parry 3. All of Us Villains by Amanda Foody and CL Herman 4. Pirate Latitudes by Michael Crichton 5. The Cursed Princess Club, Vol. 1 by Lambcat (YOU HAVE TO READ THIS GRAPHIC NOVEL!!! You would love it!)

Chandler Ainsley is my go-to book tuber. I don't have a favorite book yet this year, but I did find a favorite new series/author. The Off-Campus series by Elle Kennedy. It's already been binged.

Another fun video. 🌼

I just put a hold on Alone WithYou in the Ether... there's a 10 week waiting period on Libby, so we'll see if I get to it by the end of summer! Pineapple Street only has a 6 week wait! So far this year I really enjoyed The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna

I loved the southern book club's guide to vampires! I now want to read all of his books! also Fourth wing is on my TBR as well.

I just love your shirt here Lexi. Also Native deodorant is really good! I usually use Old Spice Swagger and found I had to re apply it or I'd smell odor and I don't have to do that with Native so it's worth the price for me! Also their body wash is amazing. I have chronic dry skin and it's the only wash I've found that doesn't dry me out. Thanks for coming to my Native Ted Talk lol.

Always love a Mid year freak out video! It's hard to choose just one fav book 😅 but Finlay Donovan is Killing it made me the happiest 😊

It's always a good day when Lexi posts!

My favorite was words of radiance by Brandon Sanderson and my second favorite a River enchanted by Rebecca Ross

I think my top three in no particular order this year so far are Remarkably Bright Creatures, Seven Days in June, and Love & Other Words. Although I did read every heart a doorway because of you and LOVED it. I added a hold to Alone With You in the Ether thanks for the rec. 🥰 have you read the new TJ Klune book yet?? 🌼

My absolute favorite book I've read so far is the Strange the Dreamer duology. They're both 2 of my all time favorite books now. I finished it over a month ago and I still can't stop thinking about their world. If you haven't read them, you need to! I just know you'll fall in love.

Beautiful Lexi great video, and Native is now on my list. The Narrow sounds like one I want to read also 🌼

Great recap Lexi! BTW- I thought of you while shopping today and came home with Alani Peach and frozen mangos. ALSO- if you like apple cider.. you have to try the Alani Witch's Brew. Oh my word! Yummy fizzy cider girl!!

More books put on my TBR. 🌼

My favorite book this year is If We Were Villains! Dark Academia at its finest.

🌼🌼 love your content! That native ad 👌 lol

Favorite book of the year so far has to be The Dinner List by Rebecca Serle!

🌼 favorite so far was finishing The Bear and the Nightingale series in the winter. And I also really enjoyed A Rover’s Story during middle grade March. It was super cute. Oh! But I loved Garlic and the Vampire! I can’t pick one favorite 🫣😅 I’m a seasonal reader and I love readathons- so these stick out to me the most so far this year 💖 Loved this video! And hope you get into the book club!! 💞🌼

Yay love this side of KZfaq that’s why I have a little channel ❤

My favorite book this year so far is Queen Charlotte! It’s also a Netflix series part of the Brigerton series. And I absolutely adored that book sooo much!!

I love the rugrats vibe of your outfit lol

1. Best book you’ve read so far this year. The Neptune Project by Polly Holyoke. I read it during Middlegrade March. Amazing, sci-fi dystopian with talking dolphins. What else would you need?😉 2. Best sequel you've read so far this year. It's a tie between The True Love Experiment by Christina Lauren and The Fires of Vengeance by Evan Winter. 3. New release you haven't read yet but want to. I Keep My Exoskeletons to Myself by Marisa Crane 4. Most anticipated release for the second half of the year. Family Lore by Elizabeth Acevedo 5. Biggest disappointment. Black Leopard, Red Wolf by Marlon James. This book was too vulgar for me, and I had to DNF it. 6. Biggest surprise. Direction of the Road: A Story by Ursula K. Le Guin. My book club was doing a theme of "reading from an unexpected perspective." This 19-page story was told from the perspective of a tree. I tried to fit in one more story before I had to attend the meeting. I didn't expect to give a 19-page story 5 stars, nor have it stick with me the way it has, but my goodness. I need to read more books by her. 7. Favourite new author. (Debut or new to you) Camille Baker. I read her Have We Met? duology and loved it. I will gladly pick up anything else she chooses to put out. 8. Newest fictional crush. Death, aka Suzie from Reincarnation Blues by Michael Poore 9. Newest favourite character. Perihelion aka, ART from Artificial Condition and Network Effect in The Murder Bot Diaries 10. Book that made you cry. The Soulmate Equation by Christina Lauren 11. Book that made you happy. Let's Play Dead by Sheila Connolly 12. Most beautiful book you've bought so far this year (or received) I recently bought Owlflight by Mercedes Lackey & Larry Dixon from a library sale. Gorgeous! 13. What books do you need to read by the end of the year. The Mark of Zorro by Johnston McCulley

I have read and have the exact 3 Grady Hendrix books and I love all 3, my first was also Mbfe which I read in October last year, I can’t get enough of this author. If you are ever able to join one of his presentations please do, he is hilarious!

Favorite book so far this year... Probably Tomorrow & Tomorrow & Tomorrow! Although I also really loved Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries. 🤔😊

Ok 9:39 just finished The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires. I think you did well to caution about triggers.I had to stop for 3 days halfway through because the triggers were so hard to process! 😮 But with the help of Stephanie Foo’s book on healing with cPTSD, I was able to deal with the trigger and move on. The Grady Hendrix books are becoming my new favorites. Despite the triggers, I would give the book 5 enthusiastic stars. 😊

🌼I always look forward to your mid-year freak out video - you are just such a sunshine in the world! I read Grady Hendrix in the same order and am now completely committed to all future pre-orders.😅

No daisy emoji available but here's a sunflower🌻. It has been a productive 1st half of year. Faves so far are: "I'll Take Everything You Have" by James Klise, "Godkiller" by Hannah Kaner, "The House on the Strand" by Daphne du Maurier and "Waimea Summer" by John Dominis Holt IV.

Love this video! My absolute favorite book this year is either Tress of the Emerald Sea or The River Enchanted by Rebecca Ross 😊

Now that you graduated are you a librarian? I am behind with books and updates, i love your channel and excited to check out your friends. Love from washington state

You’re look is so adorable today! Not that you aren’t always beautiful! This video was so much fun and reminded me that I really need to get my hands on a Grady Hendrix book! If you need more weird comedy, I always suggest Christopher Moore. I’d say start with A Dirty Job which thankfully had an even funnier sequel!

The luminaries I need to read it so gorgeous and amazing inside and out stunning and looks like a diamond piece of art 📚🏝️🏝️🌞📚📚📚🌊🌊⛱️🩵🩵🩵📖📚📚💛🩵📙🌊🌊⛱️💛💛🌞🏝️🌊🏝️📚📚📚🌞🌞📚📚🌊⛱️🩵🩵💛💛🌞🏝️🏝️📙📚🩵

Outside of all the Sarah J. Maas books I've read this year, my favorite read has been Happy Place by Emily Henry. It was so good and I already look forward to rereading it. 😊

Favorite book I’ve read in 2023: Carrie Soto is Back

🌼 I finally got around to reading Educated by Tara Westover this year and boy did that leave an impact. I still can’t stop thinking about it! Definitely my favorite so far.

Love your videos ❤❤ My favorite book so far this year is Fourth Wing 🐉

Favorite book of this year is without a doubt The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches. Also Lexi I love the outfit!! 🌼🌼🌼

My favorite book so far this year is either "the house in the cerulean sea" or "Just by looking at him" I can't decide 😅 How does one can only choose on fav title?! Impossible 😂😂 Love you ❤❤

I’m between four for my favourite book so far this year. Maus by Art Spiegelman, Come Tumbling Down by Seanan McGuire, The Last Bookshop in London by Madeline Martin and Wingbearer by Majorie Liu. I’m leaning towards Maus because it made me want to start reading historical fiction and lead to me finding a new favourite author (Madeline Martin).

My favorite book so far is either Kaikeyi or A Curious Beginning

The glass witch by Lindsay Puckett. I loved the book so much. I can't wait to read her next book. When it comes out in September 🌼

My favorite book of the year is a tie between The Stardust Thief and Better Than the Movies. Better Than the Movies is that cheesy romcom storyline with an enemies to lovers troupe, but it was done well. On the opposite side The Stardust Thief is a fantasy that has Aladdin or Arabian Night vibes with a quest to find a magic lamp with Jinn or Genies involved it was such a ride to read, but I highly recommend 🌼

🌼 Favorite book so far this year? Hmmm... that's a hard one...I think it's either Every Heart A Doorway or Truly Devious! Also if you haven't read it yet, a dark academia ghost book I think you'd like is The Ghosts Of Ashbury High by Jaclyn Moriarty! So good! And now I've got more book tubers to check out!! XD

🌼🌼🌼My Favorite Book this year is A Thousand heartbeats ❤️❤️ I loved every minute of it and crave more

I am finishing the Harry Potter series yet again... so would have to say my favourite book this year has been the Half blood prince. 🤷‍♀️ Did really enjoy the first mistborn book but disliked the second so much I still have to get to the third one! 😂 Finished Frankenstein which I really liked... Have you finally read it? 😉😉 Also, bought Pineapple street thanks to you! One of my next read! Great videos! ❤ 💐🌹🥀🌺🌷🪷🌸💮🏵️🪻🌻🌼 No daisies?! Left you all the flowers!

So excited!

🌼It's hard to narrow it down to a favorite, but I think I'll go with Hell Followed With Us, by Andrew Joseph White. I loved the portrayal of queerness and queer community, and how real the characters felt. And I'm obsessed with queer books about religion, and love the way White portrays religious extremism through a queer lens
