Bingeable series: Percy Jackson Magnus Chase The Lunar Chronicles The Kane Chronicles Mortal Engines series Heroes of Olympus

Omg I love Jesse's videos.. He's a freaking Rockstar and always puts a smile on my face ... Great books =)

I devoured all the Rick Riordian books!! Uncle rick is amazing!!

Ugggh reading slumps my worst nightmare!!! School is the doorway that leads me to that nightmare

Magnus Chase Books: *Casually chilling in the background* Me: HEY I’M READING THOSE Also Alex is amazing he/she is my lord and savior

Jesse, your attitude is something I strive for. Everyday you post, just lifts my mood. So thank you. I hope you're loving Japan.

QUICK TO THE BOOKSTORE WITH HASTE * grabs car keys*

I just finished The Fault in Our Stars 😭 You know the rest

this video brought me out my reading slump. TO THE BOOKSTORE!

YES I see the House of Hades in the background My favorite book! Love your channel by the way!

Ahhh I saw you, Natasha and Christine in the disney visa ad, you guys were so cute!!!!

I spit my water when he said “shpooky”. He’s the best🥰

Jesse, you are just too good to be true man. Love your vids. You're so energetic and funny and you always seem to put a smile on my face. 😄

OMO, THE 5TH SHATTER ME BOOK COMES OUT TOMORROW!!! DEFY ME!!! LIKE BRO YES, SO READY!! I NEED MORE KENJI IN MY LIFEU

Currently rereading "an absolutely remarkable thing" I fell in LOVE...

Books that were mentioned in this video: - the devouring Gray - the shatter me series - every heart a doorway - every one’s an alien when you’re an alien too - the cruel prince - a short history of the girl next door -

we were liars is a good one too !

The entire illuminae files trilogy is another one you can read super fast x

Sadie was definitely a quick read for me because it's so captivating!

Ahh I read “A Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue” and absolutely loved it!! I also noticed the book “Sadie” in the background, also loved that😏

Everytime I hear about the Shatter Me series I think of X-Men Rogue. Anyone else? Anyone? No? Just me? Okay.

I've bumped into three people and stumbled upon two videos that referenced Hannah Montana today. Am I missing something here?

I read the cruel prince two days ago and I literally devoured it. I love it so muuuuuuuuch

Great vid as usual man! And I'm reading through percy Jackson and the Olympians series for the first time. On book 3 and loving it so much

I HEARD RIVERDALE AND STRANGER THING, i love it

Todays mood just went up after I saw your notification.

Hey Jesse, I think you are really great at explaining and recommending books, and you would really reach out to younger kids to promote reading with books that I think we both think they would love to read. I believe that younger kids and our generation would be really grateful to a kind and understand book-tuber like you for spreading the love and respect for reading.

I devoured Nevermoor and the sequel Wundersmith by Jessica Townsend, and even though I am a bit older than the target group, it was SO AMAZING AND WONDERFUL!! I completely fell in love with it and waiting for the next book is torture! I also read The Perks of Being a Wallflower in just one day and adored it, so I really recommend that one as well!

The Key To Extraordinary by Natalie Lloyd is a very fast read with an amazing, unique main character and heavy themes of friendship and family, especially family traditions and legacies. There are also some friendly ghosts. (Not scary ghosts. This book is very not-scary.) It's amazing and I read it in only a few hours.

I'm reading Six of Crows and I'm really excited. i love your videos they are so funny!

Okay, you *need* to read the Skulduggery Pleasent series! Its kind of fantasy, mystery, jam-packed with end-of-the-world senarios. It is more aimed towards young teens but really anyone could enjoy these. I am currently *obsessed* but I don't want to say too much cos I'm basically a spoiler despenser lmao!

I have a book series for you to read if you haven't yet, you should read *The Testing* series, it's amazing! I have read these books twice since I found out about them and I fell in love automatically! It's more of a futuristic book but in a completely different way. The main characters name is Malencia Vale and she studies really hard while she is in school so she can get into The Testing and go to The Univercity if she passes the test. Turns out, the test is deadly, and only 20 out of (I think) 120 kids will make it out....but what happens to those who fail?

'The Last Namsara' written by Kristen Ciccarelli was a super fast read for me! It captivates you and drags your feelings in the dirt (in a good way). I defiently recommend this one to dragon lovers and adventure seekers!

They all sound great!! A book series I would recommend is The Shadow Children by Margaret Peterson Haddix! It's based in the future and families are only allowed to have two kids, but some have three ( and they are called Shadow children because they must live in the shadows). It's every good and I read it really fast because the books are easy reads but it's amazing!!

Your energy makes me want to read every book in existence. . . NOW! 😂

Scythe series and stalking Jack the Ripper series are SO GOOD

Okay its 01:38 at night but I think your video is a good finish to my day😂💞

1) the editing really snapped 2) im in love w your eyes (and you) 3) you’re so valid

i feel like you’d really love The Devouring Grey it definitely was creepy and great to read around Halloween so you can get spooked :p

The Cruel Prince is a book that I honestly can say lives up to ALL the hype. I slowed myself down while reading just so I could make it last longer. Not everyone’s cup of tea but definitely mine.

Those bookshelves looks so organized and nice 😍

I also loved Reck’s book. I cried.

If you enjoyed the the devouring gray you might like Garth Nix trouble twisters series.

Jesse! I'm such a huge fan of yours and I honestly bought some of the books you're recommending. I didn't know your an ARMY! OMG

ASKSKSKSKSSK JOHN GREEN. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH😭😭😭😍

Definitely A Monster Calls

I really enjoy your channel, and your opinions about books are spot on. I would love to see you do a "reading booktubers favorite books" video! That would be so fun to watch!

I devoured Keeper of the Lost Cities book 1, it went by so fast even though it was long! I also completely devoured Everything, Everything, having read it in one day. Chronicles of Vladimir Tod was a book I read really fast, and Scythe by Neal Shusterman (which I am rereading right now)

His videos always give me such a calm vibe. Like a summer day, and I have a big TBR stack with plenty of time to get through it.

The boy in the striped pajamas was a quick read. I was bawling my eyes out at the end though...

you're like the Phil Lester of booktube! omg

4:04 i love how he realizes this so easily ❤️

Honestly you had me at Riverdale meets Stranger Things with The Devouring Grey. I’ll be reading that once I finish The Lunar Chronicles.

I've recently read 'The Raven Boys' and I couldn't stop reading. All the mystery was amazing and I lived for Gansey and Blue. Also, that feeling when you see a book you love on someone's self... =] =] =]

i am sooooo waiting for your review of "Kingdom of Ash!!!" i literally just read just to watch your book reviews.

I just started Bridge of Clay by Markus Zusak who’s my fav author 💛 third Zusak book I’ve read-pumped.

I’m currently devouring Fahrenheit 451!

I finished A Darker Shade of Magic today after starting it yesterday. Very quick read

A dogs purpose was a very devouring book I really suck at reading thick books but I flew through it 🐩🐶

I love your chanel so much, i'm a reader from germany and I always watch your vieos and always end up with 1 or 2 new books I want to read :) I hope I can buy new ones soon 😊

I got a copy of the devouring gray too and I’m so excited to read it!

I forgot my book at home and had a mini mental break down. "How am I supposed to survive the school day without it?" I wanted my mom to turn around so I could get it but when she did I felt guilty since we were already late. Sometimes I can be so selfish. I feel like a brat. She dropped me off and left me the house key. I had someone pick me up so I could still go to school. This is a problem for me. If I don't have a book I feel like I'm gonna die or something. I'm more attached to a book than my own friends. My mother is so nice but I always get in her way I feel like I'm always ruining something. The book sitting on my lap isn't a book anymore it's just a bundle of guilt and anxiety.

Hope ur having even more fun in Japan!

I would totally recommend The Illuminae files. I loved this trilogy. One day I almost stayed up all night to finish one of the books

Funilly enough I binge read both the Shatter Me series and the Cruel Prince one in a few days 🙊 I indeed flew through them!!

A series that i loved was the summoners trilliogy

I lOVED a short history of the girl next door. I was blindsided by the sadness but it was amazing. I've never heard any booktubers talk about it before but i'm glad you liked it too!

The second book in the Wayward Children Series is my favorite! I put them both on my favorites list of last year they are perfect quick reads to get you out of reading slump or to knock off a book for a readathon! Great Recommendation!!

Shatter Me is more like the granola bars that sit in the pantry for years and taste like cardboard but somehow they won't go away

I got that notification and smiled. Ur positivity and energy is so contagious!! I love ur channel!

00:27 BOI. I RELATE ENDLESSLY

Your Hannah Montana references made my Monday so much better. I’ve been wanting to read more books about faeries since reading Lord of Shadows, but I need to attempt to finish some more books off my TBR pile before I get Cruel Prince.

Please do a bookshelf tour! ;;

Have you ever read any of Harlan Cobens books? The ones I've read so far are AMAZING!! I love the plot twists and characters! So far I've read "Home" and "Gone for Good". My big sister let me borrow a couple of his novels she has, it's nice to have a sister who loves books as much as I do 😂.

I can relate to when you're reading a book and you look up and its like,midnight.I have started reading a book at 8pm and I finish it and I look up and its 3am...I just don't get how you do it but im not complaining

I read Legend by Marie Lu in one sitting. It was really good!

I am reading The Chamber of Secrets!!

I just finished listening to The Cruel Prince on the Libby app and I have to wait for the next one to be to listening to it.

You have to watch Stranger Things before season 3 comes out! There's only 2 seasons and each season has like 10 episodes so you can get through it super quickly

I cannot wait until defy comes out tomorrow !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please make a Kingdom of Ash book review!!!

I can confirm that you can devour the shatter me series really quickly! I read the whole thing in less then a week ( Including the novellas besides shadow me.) so I could watch the amazing booksplosion live-show live!

I’m reading Percy Jackson and the last olympian

If I'm not mistaken...every heart a doorway is becoming a TV show

Thank you for the book recs. I've never read Every Heart a Doorway or the Shatter Me series but I'm seriously hyped now. Great video.❤️

Some books I think I devoured are: Geekerella, the book thief, my lady jane, twuthwitch, hot dog girl, royals, caraval and so many more!(:

Percy Jackson and the olympians! I read all the 5 books in a week or less lmao

My day literally got better because of this😔❤

I read the first book in Shatter Me series. Wasn't a fan but my friends would never let me DNF it. Also, my subcribers have asked for reviews. Seems like, I definitely have to continue.

im currently reading This Savage Song

I am a slow reader BUT I devoured The Cruel Prince & The Wicked King by Holly Black. I also speed read the Legend series by Marie Lu, and Fourth Wing. Currently in 2024, I'm devouring The Inheritance Games by Jessica Lynn Barnes!

I’m reading Harry Potter and the order of the Phoenix right now. It’s awesome!!

It's been a long time since i have speed read a book but it was back in the beginning of 2017 and the book was Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell.

I totally devoured the Magnus Chase trilogy! Gotta thank Uncle Rick for that XD

I’m flying through My Sister, the Serial Killer. Chapters are short. Text is grim but nonchalant somehow... Anyway, I’m 50% in, and only picked it up yesterday. I can feel this as one of my top picks of 2019! 🤗

SCYTHE - Neal Shusterman. Devourable AF. I was only able to put it down long enough to run to the book store and buy THUNDERHEAD. True story. :)

I didn't watch much of the video, but the Wings of Fire series is a devouring read. I should probably go back and watch some of the video.

Yay! Books!!

THE DA VINCI CODE by Dan Brown. The fastest read for me. Followed by THE BOOK THIEF by Markus Zusak. If you read those then you know. Currently reading GHOST STORY by Peter Straub. It's a little slow
