i love how lily's thumbnails always look so sweet and innocent, then you click on the vid and she swears like a sailor and rants about fuckboys lmao

I've always been good at math, but suddenly this girl has started uploading regularly and things just haven't been adding up

"And then he died i was happy when he died" 😂😂😂 if that ain't me everytime a character i don't like dies

Lily you look gorgeous!

The C in LilyCReads stands for consistency

Hey Lily! Just want to say that I really appreciate your reviews bc you don't just either rave about a book or bash it with no reasons why, you actually give really thoughtful comments and criticisms which I love! 😁

First BtW Lily u inspired me to read😃

obligatory comment on frequency of uploads

This is too good to be true. See you after a year.

Can you recommend us like your top 10 books to read?

Bitterblue is the best out of all of them; it has a good storyline in discovering Graces (which you said you wanted to have more), and the plot twist is kind of... insane. Well, for me. I cried. But yeah, I still think you should give it a try.

chronologically, it's Fire then Graceling then Bitterblue. it would be helpful to read Graceling before Bitterblue to introduce you to some key characters and it's sometimes mentioned in Bitterblue what happened in Graceling. but by way of quality, it's Bitterblue, Fire, then Graceling. the author admits she made a lot of mistakes with Graceling and tried to fix them over the next two books.

Contrary to popular opinion, I don't think Lily posting regularly is something to worry about. I'm so proud of you, Lily, and thanks for blessing me w your videos xx

Guys can u imagine Lily being a gamer. Gus lets get lily to make a gaming channel. I can already imagine her ranting.

When I read Fire way back when, I always got the sense that Archer and Fire's relationship was less of a relationship and more of a friends with benefits kind of deal. Archer was in love with Fire, but she mostly only viewed him as a very close friend.

Lily uploading somehow regularly watered my crops, fed my children and cured my depression

Spoiler! All the "I'm pregnant" twists made me feel like I was watching a soap opera lol

I was going through this phase of just being unable to read anything, but watching your hilarious videos has gotten me back into reading so thanks! :)

you're posting so much im shook

".. basically, she's just like this insanely beautiful girl who can control peoples minds .." sounds like your new Twitter bio. love you ♥

colorful monsters.. like pokemon basically

I read the first two books like most people, nobody gives a fuck about the third book

If you've never read it, I recommend Snowcrash by Neal Stephenson. It's basically like if you mashed together Ready Player One and The Matrix but did it better and before people even had the though of VR in their brains. It's really an interesting read and Neal Stephenson actually invented some of the IT lingo people use today!

Fantasy isn't usually my cup of tea, so I'll give this one a miss. Loved your review though-I never understand why girls would want a guy like Archer, even in real life! There's protective and there's manipulative, and Archer sounds like the latter. No thanks. BTW are you planning a review for A Pleasure and a Calling? I'm thinking about buying it but I want to know if you thought it was good before I do...

"Hi everyone it's me i'm back." Fuck has it been ten years already?

omg you're blessing us with so much content!!!

I genuinely love your reviews. You're super honest and it's so refreshing. I look forward to your next ones!

The thing about the third book: It feels like the whole series built up to (sort of clumsily) the reveal of King Leck. The first book talks about his fall, the second about his rise, and the third is about all the stuff in between. While this series is in no way one of my favorites, after reading the third book, I ALWAYS think of King Leck when I think about the most evil villains in fiction. Plus it was interesting to see how people (and the entire kingdom) struggled with the aftereffects of being controlled by such an evil presence.

For some reason I love to watch your reviews and how you explain the books even though I haven't read any of them

I'm glad you are posting regular reviews, your reviews are my favorite at this moment. :)

Love your reviews, its clear, realistic, and convincing. Keep making reviews videos. Your channel is my go-to for books and reading ❤️🌹

Thank you for helping me make up my mind the next time I go to the book store. Love your videos, I love your "no bullshit" attitude, it's refreshing and endearing.

I swear I absolutely love your voice. And your attitude is awesome.

OMG Yay. I can't believe this is out already! Thank you Lilly!

you're honestly so gorgeous and your book reviews are life!

thank you for blessing my feed

You are climbing up my fave youtubers list so fast ❤️. You bring the intelligent sass I need to survive

Yay, Lily uploaded a new video again! Made my day ❤

You make me miss reading, I used to be a huge reader but I was too busy with school. I think I might start reading again now, love ya Lily!

Love your reviews, even though I haven't, and probably won't read the books you talk about, it's interesting and entertaining to listen to why your consider a book to bad or good and your reasoning! It really makes me want to read more as well! Question: What classical novels have you read/ thought were good and do you read nonfiction in your spare time?

It's sad that you are not going to read Bitterblue! I like the third book more than the first two.

Hey Lily! Love your channel, you have such a great personality! 💛

I literally watch all your reviews even though I've never read most of the books just bc you have such kick ass personality.

You look gorgeous in this vid!! Also are you planning on ever making a review on to kill a mockingbird since you've mentioned it's your fave? I'd really love to hear your thoughts (and everyone's in the comments) on it! 💗

I love you'r attitude! I'm struggling with the idea of posting book reviews on the internet and have definitely thought of getting a KZfaq account, but if I ever do you are defs what I would strive to be like.

You need to do a video full of recommendations on different genres 😍

We can no longer joke about Lily's inconsistent uploads. This is a new Lily. Bookathon changed her

you always look gorgeous Lily!

plz keep uploading like this don't leave us when we are so used to you now

honey, your hair looks amazing in this, love the wavey thing going on 🔥

I love you 💖💖 thanks for uploading

Loving the regular uploading! The girl sounds like you in this. ☺️🌹🙂 Can't wait to see what you reveiw next.

bitterblue is the best one though. i'm just saying you should read it because it ties graceling and fire together. also bitterblue is so much more interesting and she delves into her father's abuse and stuff. anyway read it.

"This has been a success for everyone" 😂😂

So many uploads yaaaay!

Ahh! Your reviews are so good! I totally agree with you on this one. I read both Graceling and Fire back in tenth grade, and while I enjoyed them, I liked Fire a whole lot more. But in the end, these books weren't spectacular in any way. I hadn't even remembered the protagonists' names!

Oh my goodness! So much Lily!!! I'm in heaven

OH MY GOD I WASN'T EXPECTING ANOTHER VIDEO SO SOON #blessed ily

The first two can be read in either order but Bitterblue (the third) is meant to be read after Graceling

Hey, appreciate that you have consistent uploads, before it gets lost forever.

lily is uploading so many videos recently, I feel blessed

I think it would be interesting to have flaws in mind reading power such as: you can NOT closed your mind off easily/read minds whether you like it or not, having a relationship problem (knowing you can read their dirty secrets or unknowingly influence their thoughts), having other people react _badly_ of her power (easy conflict), the struggle and stress of having that power, etc. If the author explored the world building more thoroughly, it could be far more thoughtful book. But in any case, I would read Graceling series over House of Night any goddamn day.

I swear, you're the only booktuber I fully trust

HELLO LILLY, HAVE YOU REAS ANYTHING BY EOIN COLFER? The Artemis Fowl series is an amazing, hilarious fantasy books! They are about a boy, who in the first book is 12 years old, who with his butler, Butler, kidnaps a fairy who's also a leprechaun, but that's just a job :3 (It doesn't make sense before you read it, it's genius) Eoin Colfer's humour is amazing, the characters are all really interesting and the worlds he created are... wow, read! Has anyone else read the books? Please like and comment, I feel like I'm the only one who has read them :(

thank you i'll read this book , i really trust your opinion

Love your videos ❤❤❤

I don't read or plan to read any of these books u review, but I sit and watch till the end cause ur commentary is gold and it should need context but goddamn fuck archer

Posting videos regularly. Iconic.

IM BLESSED

Fire's power and the ability for people to close their minds off reminds me of Rhysand's power through the court of thorns and roses books and how people could learn to shut their thoughts out from him or anyone else with that power...

Yeah I didn't like Fire or Graceling that much but when I read Bitterblue (years ago) I actually really liked it. But tbh don't know how much I would like Bitterblue if I read it now.

Idk how you feel about book recommendations, but some YA/urban fantasy books I picked up recently and enjoyed are: The Coldest Girl in Coldtown (a genuine and believable teen lead who's pretty badass) and In Other Lands (an amazing parody of the traveling-to-a-fantasy-world books, with lead characters who have an honestly touching friendship w each other)

HOLY CRAP YOU'RE GORGEOUS ✨

Your hair looks really good in this review.

HEY you should totally review the book scythe because i really really love it and i want to know what you think about it

Lily! You Should read the night school series, i'd love to hear your opinion on them

Girl how does your hair always look so damn soft and shiny? I need to know your secrets lol

i just realised that i read this book AGES ago and i remembered how much i loved it! i saw the cover and was like "why does that look so familiar" then i heard the review and was like AHHHHHHHH I READ THIS!!

You should totally do a review/rant of Black Ice.

I can already tell it's great before watching it

please do a video about the controversy around "handbook for mortals"! i dont see many book youtubers talking about it!

I was about to go to bed but I live for your sass

OMG. Two videos in a week?! That is weeeeiiiirrrrdddd.

I was just watching Anna and the French kiss review laughing my ass off and then I got this notification. I'm actually so happy

lily please i love you and i dont want you to lose your sanity PLEASE do a video on books you actually ENJOY

If you want a fantasy series that explains their concept of mind control and how to resist it, the eragon series did it pretty well if I remember correctly.

I really love this book

This girl is actually too beautiful and I freaking love her personality!

I always thought she could read the thoughts they were having at that moment, so some people got good at not thinking about certain things around her.

Would you ever do a live reaction, or review of a TV show or other thing you're interested in? These videos are great though!

i really don't care about these books but i looove hearing your opinions on them 🤗

The third one pulls the other two together.

huge fan of your videos. bought to kill a mockingbird because of you and fucking loved it! can you please do a review for the kingkiller chronicles? i really like to hear you thoughts about it! (believe me, this is not a series that i think you hate. i really enjoyed reading it. i just wanna see what you think about it.)

Yes babygirl !

I liked Bitterblue but it gets super heavy all the time and drags in places because nothing would happen for chapters.

could you try reading the darkangel series by meredith ann pierce? I remember freaking loving that series as a teen, i loved how it didn't have a typical ending

I read this as " FIRE REVIEW " I'm like wow ok better watch

she said "hi everyone its me again" in the beggining like these regular uploads are nbd haha

Yaay new video :)

You look gorgeous❤️
