I feel an instant save for the "You're mine" talk is follow it up with a "I am yours." "You're mine, and I am yours". Now that's actually wholesome.

Petition for guys in books to change what animal noise they make when they're possessive. Barking and growling is out. Girl: I...I'm yours. Guy: *AGGRESSIVE BIRD CALLS*

The worst part is the fact there is probably sitting a 25+ yo woman behind a screen writing these things with a straight face thinking “yup that’s it, FANTASTIC”

could we appreciate her EDITING STYLE? it‘s literally so cool

“baby girl” and Gen Z words (even the mentioning of modern apps) in books are probably my biggest icks

I lost it at "you stole a lollipop at six years old" 🤣

I hate when a character is extremely possessive and gets so jealous and angry when their love interest is around another person and manipulate them to only be around them and it’s just accepted. If someone tired that with me I’d be running. Toxic relationships shouldn’t be romanticized 😭

Madita:I hate reading The books behind her:👁️👄👁️

I only like the "you are mine" when it goes like "I am yours and you are mine". The meaning is so different to me

Currently reading a book where the MC’s “husband” acts like a child and is never really there for her or their children… 🤢🤢🤢

I love how like passionate she is about this stuff it makes me so happy lolll 😂

I also hate when the FL cheats and people justify it because she has a bad boyfriend/husband, especially when there's absolutely nothing stopping her from dumping him. Most of the time, her boyfriend/husband can't even do anything to her because the ML is strong enough to protect her. And I find it weird that she has little to no trauma from the abuse and once she leaves her partner for the ML, she's completely normal.

It's honestly scary how many toxic/abusive things are normalized in romance (and sometimes other genres). Especially when we consider that a lot of this happens in YA so teens might grow up thinking this is normal or even desirable.

I just read The Love Hypothesis, and OMFG I don’t even know how many times the fact that _he’s so big_ is mentioned and it disgusts me. Also... “you’re so big...” and “you can handle it.” 🤦🏻‍♀️

When she says that she hates when men say “your not like everyone else” the only thing that came to my mind is instead you want him to say “your just like everyone I met❤” l😂😅

1:23 rawr 1:47 heebee jibees 1:53 fudgi sickles 2:57 babygal i love her vocabulary 😭😭

My ex and I (lesbians) called each other babygirl and kitten jokingly, just taking the piss. And then my friend saw me writing "what'up babygirl?" And she didn't realize we were joking so she was HORRIFIED

We need a trigger warning for the books that had these… so we all know to stay away

3:26 the only thing I can think of is "I wanna feel you milking me baby" from the Spanish love deception it was soooo bad.

I've yet to watch the entire video, so I'm not sure if this was mentioned or not, but when he's a mafia boss and he kills some innocent man in front of her for the first time, and she runs off. Then he goes to "comfort" her and she INSTANTLY gets over that fact that he MURDERED someone and they start MAKING OUT while there's probably blood staining his living room carpet.

"YOU HAVE MATH HOMEWORK" My favorite quote I've ever heard

I actually love when he says “you’re mine” 😂😂 but I HATE when she’s says “I’m yours” back to him 🫠💀

I swear, if I find out that a book says, even if just once, that the girl is _so small_ and the boy is *SO BIG* I will indeed stop reading even if I’m like halfway through the book. It disgusts me. 🥴

My bookish and even more specifically romantic ick is when the guy is only sweet to her and mean to everyone else. Such a turn off. Because i pick and appreciate men who appreciate and treat my friends and family with affection and respect. I would never go for someone who is only sweet to me because that man is a big ol red flag not just to the world initially but will turn out to be extremely toxic to me and will think am his property later on.

i’m so feeling the big chapters one right now because i’m reading the secret history and in this entire 560 PAGE BOOK there are EIGHT CHAPTERS. EIGHT.

6:22 I LITERALLY CAN’T ANYMORE I cannot breathe. Madita stop making me break into insane laughter, my family is concerned. 😭😭

she’s such a CHARACTER

YES ON THE CHEATING TROPE. I’ve been writing a book for a while now (probably won’t ever publish, it’s mostly for me), and as I wrote, my male love interest just kinda naturally gravitated to another character. They had better chemistry than my MMC and FMC, so rather than write a cheating trope, I just had them break up amiably, and currently my MMC is dating the other character and my FMC is living her best single life

I just LOVE her editing style!!

the weird curses reminds me of AGGGTM but i love how pip swears and be like holly peperonni

the doodle intro is so cute i love it

this video had me cackling especially at 6:25 😭 so many book icks but the growling/roaring takes the trophy for me. like it's giving animal, like actual wolf. gonna sub because you're just so funny and I love the vibe

i have started "Better Than The Movies" a few days ago AND THE LONG CHAPTERS ARE SO TRUE. Still love the book tho!

The part about milking had me laughing and feeling disgusted at the same time lol

When I was fourteen I actually got told “you’re not like other girls”

i might go back to reading children's books 🥲😂😭

moments of silence for madita for the sufferings and standing ovation for those acting✨💗💀

When the guy is a werewolf and he'll call her his mate, growl, bite her neck, or his eyes will glow like WTF

as a fantasy writer, the terms: snarling, barking, growling etc are a frequent part of the expectation so its not fun having it in my vocab

Making men as monster noses, using technical words for body parts, weird pet names, creepy behaviour, teacher/student/parent/schoolgirl. animalistic noises, normalising dark behaviour that should never happen to a person, overdescription of appearances,

i was having such a bad day and the notif for this video instantly made it better😭🫶

The way you edit your videos is literally amazing, you’re my favorite Booktuber ever❤️

I feel like this is the LEGIT definition of "The Love Hypothesis". 😭

Madita's editing is awesome!!!!! You can literally tell how hard she works.

You acting out the weird actions was what made this video 10x better 🤣

I wanna thank you so much for making this video as it is really cheering me up and distracting me from the incredibly painful period cramps I am expiriencing right now 🙏 I've found some of these tropes can work very well if the author explores or challenges them (for exemple I was reading a fantasy series where the main character has a lot of wolf characteristics from being magically bonded to one and the author instead of just saying "he growled" really explored the balance of his animalistic and human side through his body language and habits, which imcluded sometimes growling). Another thing that could work is the narrative challenging the aggressive/possessive behaviour of the character instead of romanticising it. Etc

i love your personality madita, one of the reasons i started getting into reading again! thank you for your amazing content

Lately it’s during a Smutt scene “than he comes undone” no, I come “undone” reading this. 😂 at first I heard this in a book review and than I read the wicked kingdom and I came undone 😂

Hi Maddy! Your "bad boy" acting was on point!😂😂😂 Loved it. This entire video just had me laughing and giggling.

Whenever someone writes that a character growls, I hear that Call of Duty zombie noise. That's my toxic trait. No one told me to think like this. Yet, I do. And that's why I struggle to get through a romance book, even though I want to so badly.

this video was so fun!! i love it

I looveee your editing style and videos!! Never fails to make me laugh ❤

You're the realest person ever lmfao😭 i love youuu

Sarah j mass life or death scenes: “ok?” he growled. “Ok,” she purrrrrs ✋🏻💀STOP

I hate the fake daring trope if theyre adults Unless its a they must do this cuz famous trope

For the growling thing, I also think this cringy when its in sexual contexts or as just a sound they do randomly, but when its used right it just describes the way their voices sound and it can be extremely effective and (dare i say) cool? Hear me out, in bbc radios version of hamlet there are two great examples of roaring and growling in Act 1 Scene 4 and in Act 1 Scene 5. In 1,4 after the ghost has entered and beckoned hamlet to follow it, his friends do not want him to follow and physically restrains hamlet. he's desperate to follow his fathers ghost, so he when he says the line "unhand me gentlemen" (literally so polite haha) he roars it. There is literally no other way to describe how the bbc radio voice actor said it other than a roar. its loud, has a rough quality to it, and demanding. it's not necessaaaaarily angry, maybe a little bit because he is being restrained, but its mostly desperation to hear what the ghost has to say. In 1,5, the ghost has just said "The serpent that did sting thy father's life // Now wears his crown." where basically hamlet realizes that his father was murdered by his uncle, so he says "O, my prophetic soul! My uncle?" (where "My uncle? is growled) its different from the roar because its not as loud, and a lot more angry. The thing with these is that in the right contexts its really effective when used to describe how they are saying something. if hamlet simply demaned his friend to "unhand me gentlemen" it wouldn't have had that roughness to it, because demands don't have to have that. same with the "my uncle?" part, if he had just shouted that it wouldnt have been rough and angry. and so i think it can be a pretty cool way to describe a voices quality. In hamlet, it doesn't explicitly say that they are saying things in particular ways (unless its sung), that's up to the voice actors and actors on stage, but when they do say things in growly or roaring ways, there really is no other way to describe it haha. so yeah, no random growling for me. absolutely not. but in an angry context? (nothing sexual. growling does not belong in an intimate setting like that for me.) go right ahead. it just fits sometimes haha Edit: i forgot to mention barking, but the only context i think that fits in is if it's some general or leader who is kinda full of themselves are barking out orders. It's like a loud, sudden demand for something, that is what barking is in humans. barks in dogs it also loud and sudden so i suppose thats where the comparison is drawn. other than that... no. (I don't have any hamlet examples of barking i don't think, none at the top of my head at least, since i already used examples from hamlet in this comment hahah.)

this is my first time seeing your videos and girl ily😭💀

i've read books WITHOUT chapters and it felt wayyyy longer than necessary. OR when the chapter doesn't start on a new page 😭😭😭😭

the sticking tongue out reaction is so me 😭😭 i just took pen and scribbles that out like yup i didnt read that

Whenever Madita posts a new vid my day has been made!

You just made my day! I hope you're okay))

I am still laughing, i have to watch this video with my teenie daughter again, i am afraid we will end on the ground because of unstoppable laughter! 👌🏻👌🏻🤣🤣

Your personality is everything 😂

OMG 😭😭😭 the “ I could be as old as your dad” I remembered sinners anonymous in the end when they were together. He said the same sentence and she replied “ so can I call you daddy” and I was like 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀 if this was at the beginning of the book I would have never read it again but it was the ending 💀

I read a book that literally said "its going to slay" I almost threw the book out then and there

Ahh I love your vids so much!

I hate when in a book the adult tries to use gen z slang like bruh no stop 😭

This video makes me question why I read books…

OMG MADITA UPLOADED NEW VIDEO MY DAY IS IMMEDIATELY 1000X BETTER

Love you Madita hope you have a great day! 💗

No but why is the growling part so true though? Like when I read something like “She stays here, - he growled.” (cough The Predator cough) I’m like how can you _GROWL_ a sentence?! Enlighten me pls 😂

Every Ali Hazlewood book: “but ur so big🥺”
