Whenever I feel like I'm falling out of love with reading I'll watch your channel and usually get a book recommendation that I'll add to my list of books I wanna buy and then I'll wanna read more again and I wanna say thank you for that. Your content is SUPER entertaining

Hey Gabby, great video as always. I love your recommendation videos and reading vlogs. I had a reading slump of more than 3 years but after coming across your channel, I am on another journey of discovering my love for reading. My go to genres are thriller, mystery, crime and now I am leaning into horror all cos of your recommendations. Thanks for your suggestions and recommendations. ❤

So glad I'm not alone in my hatred of The Exorcist's House😅 Honestly one of the worst books I've read this year, which sucks because small-town and exorcism horror are two of my favorite things! I was so hyped for it, but to call it a disappointment would be way too generous lol

@nickroberts7360 Жыл бұрын

The negative review doesn’t bother me, but that binding issue is unacceptable. I’d send you a signed hardback if you didn’t hate the book. 😂

@elletinglesASMR Жыл бұрын

It isn’t unacceptable, as a reader - the whole reading and holding a physical book is an experience. It’s like going to a fancy restaurant and getting treated so poorly yet we pay such high price. “I’d send you a signed hardback if you didn’t hate the book” So petty and immature, is it really necessary to put that in? Lol. I think the negative review does bother you but that’s part of being a writer, not everyone is going to like your writing. I haven’t read it yet but kinda don’t even want to with how you approached this.🤷🏻‍♀️

@cindywingetbooks Жыл бұрын

@@elletinglesASMR I don't know why you are being so hateful. If I wrote a book and it was falling apart, I would be upset too! It is unacceptable. They should have done a better job at binding it. And offering to give her a copy that isn't falling apart is a nice gesture.

I really enjoyed The Silent Companions. It’s pretty slow at the start but then it starts to get really creepy and I kept thinking wtf is this? You will probably enjoy a kindle better then reading on your phone when you have no choice in reading an ebook. I’ll rather have the physical book but when I only have the ebook the kindle makes it 100 percent more enjoyable and a lot less distractions. It’s also easier on my eyes if the physical book has really small print because I can make the text as big as I like. I love when you make these types of videos. I always look forward.
