I absolutely love the way you decorate your spreads!!!

@thegeekgirl19 Жыл бұрын

for manga i do one page per volume. So one “spread” is two volumes. It is a lot of pages in the long run but I do like having little summaries for each volume EDIT: I started doing two volumes per page, so now one "spread" is 4 volumes. Mainly cause I'm running out of pages TwT

Your videos helped inspire me to get back in to reading. I actually managed to read a whole novel this month! A super cute book called Legends and Lattes. Looking forward to getting back my old love of fiction. 🍵

My favorite novellas are Seanan McGuire's Wayward Children series, and Alix E. Harrow has a fairytale retelling novella series that I've been enjoying. Both series are fantasy-ish adjacent--some of the stories take place in our world but feature fantasy worlds for large part of the stories.

@sumrakdievca Жыл бұрын

It's a bit late to reply, but re: manga in the reading journal- I do one spread per series per month (like, all the volumes of Ancient Magus Bride that I read in April go on one spread). That way, I get to keep to keep the series together (and don't have to try to summarize each. Freaking. Volume.) while still keeping everything that I read in a month together. Yes, sometimes I do have floating volumes, which is annoying, but c'est la vie. I'd also recommend Seanan McGuire's Wayward Children series for good novellas! They're about... 150 pages a pop, give or take, and the whole series, starting with Every Heart a Doorway are really good. And hey, they're fantasy! 🍵

@KnockOnWood03 Жыл бұрын

I know this videos is old now, but how I do my manga journaling is by the story arcs, a lot of manga series are spilt by smaller story arcs (like 5 or even 10 volumes). That fit nicely together with a nice theme to them. As an example: Let’s say you’re doing Black Butler, the Circus arc would be one spread and then the School arc would be another spread. Of course that might be hard to apply to a lot of series, but that’s how I personally do it :)

@Amyduckie Жыл бұрын

Novellas can be brilliant, but some can be terrible. My favourite novella series is the Wayward Children series by Seanan McGuire. It’s a portal fantasy series. The first one is called Every Heart a Doorway. I think you might like it. Your Stationery Shop spread is beautiful. 😍🧋

@BethanyGrace4 Жыл бұрын

A great novella that I would recommend is And Every Morning the Way Home Gets Longer and Longer by Fredrik Backman. I read it this month and absolutely loved it. Its only like 75 pages long and I literally cried for 80% of it 😅 Another really great video Hedda, your reading journal continues to inspire me with my journaling process🫖

My most fav tea recently is Licorice Spice by Stash. Just perfect for winter. ☕ I'm rereading Little Women. It's such a lovely heartwarming book. I have The Stationary Shop on my TBR. Love all things paper and book related. I recommend The Taste of Ginger by Mansi Shah.

The "Stationery Shop" spread is absolutely gorgeous. I tend to make more minimalistic spreads so watching you gives me a different perspective on how to journal. Also the book itself seems very interesting to me, thank you for recommending it.

I absolutely love the manga spread! Inu Yasha was my first anime when I was probably 14. I love watching your different spreads come together. My reading journal isn't as varied since I just pick a theme for the year and use it in all my spreads, and I read so much I have to put multiple books on a spread. I usually give a full page to the ones I really loved or if I read a bunch of one manga then I will do a page for those.

I read “The Atlas Six” this month and I agreed with all your points! I think you might like “The Book Eaters” for the dark academia vibe. But, my fave read of January was hands down, “Legendborn” by Tracy Deonn. It was super incredible and based on Arthurian legends 💕

recently in english class, we read the novella “chronicle of a death foretold” by gabriel garcía márquez. it’s very short (only 120-ish pages) and it’s honestly amazing, though very disturbing. it deals with a lot of heavy topics, history, etc, not to mention the timeline of events is absolutely wild. look up content warnings, like i said it’s very dark, but if you are ok with that then i would recommend it!!

Enjoyed this with a warm drink and my lizard! I haven't read any of these, but I'm curious about Atlas Six and have heard great things about The Stationery Shop. Inuyasha was the first non-Dragonball anime I really got into - I still need to finish it 😅 I just started reading Our Wives Under the Sea by Julia Armfield, which I'm deffo enjoying so far. Looking forward to the February video! 🍵

Your reading journal videos as some of my favorites to watch here in KZfaq. I like what you did for the manga series, I have no idea how to add a spread for the manga I read since I don't have much to say about them. 😅 Recently, I read "Even Though I Knew the End by C.L. Polk" and that was as solid novella. I prefer novels but a short novella is a good palate cleanser

@Karen_Tries Жыл бұрын

I have to say that Roar and Rage that I read this month wasn’t all that bad for a free book on audible! I also read from blood and ash- so those would be my recommendations this month!

Lovely spreads! 🍵 The Stationery Shop sounds amazing and I will definitely be checking it out! I haven’t read manga but I do read graphic novels and comics and I personally make one spread for each volume, but I also don’t often read many volumes all at once. I LOVE novellas! Here are a few of my favorites that I would highly recommend: the Murderbot Diaries series by Martha Wells (there is 1 full-length novel so far in the series too but most are novellas), The Empress of Salt and Fortune by Nghi Vo (first in a collection), Weight by Jeanette Winterson, The Guest Cat by Takashi Hiraide (originally in Japanese, I read the English translation).

The manhwa I have read this year so far have not been great so I’ve only put my entries at the end of a page of spreads that don’t end at the end of a page. Lol. But I’d probably use a half a page per volume tbh- for ones that are actually good. ❤

That’s cool, nobody is forcing you to watch it😊 There’s lots of content out there without sponsored segments, including many of my own videos. However, some of my videos do have sponsored segments, because this is how I pay my bills. I mark my videos clearly whenever I have a sponsor, both in the title of the video, the first part of the video description, and also by using KZfaq’s paid advertisement tag function, so I don’t think there should be any surprises when the video starts, but I’m sorry you felt like you were tricked. Have a lovely day!❤️

I love the colors you chose for your spreads this month! The bright reds really popped and the lavender was so peaceful. As for novella recommendations, I have recently read and enjoyed Galatea by Madeline Miller (inspired by the ancient Greek myth of Pygmalion, who fell in love with a beautiful statue that he made and brought her to life) and Carmilla by J. Sheridan le Fanu (vampires! A fun read for Halloween if you ever decide to embark back into horror). ☕️🫖 As always, I really enjoyed the video.
