omg you are so adorable in this yellow dress and scrunchie look!!!

I relate to moving away from YA. I still read the emotional ones that explore deep topics, but i can't take anymore high school drama or trying for the school play.

omgggg i was SUCH trash for The Royals, i was so sad when it was gave up on 😭

I also don't read a lot of scifi because I feel intimidated by it... but wow you're really making me want to check out The First Sister.

I feel the same way about YA contemporary. It often times doesn't go as deep as I want it to and know it can go

Girl I hate to tell you, you secretly love SCI-Fi 😂👽

I got so excited seeing you read "When no one is watching"!! I enjoyed it quite a lot, it angered me so much at points I had to pause the audiobook and take a breather. I was impressed with how many things it made me feel. The ending felt rushed and a bit convenient, but I still ended up giving it 4 stars.

No one is watching was such a good one! I’m glad you enjoyed it!!

Ahhhh your setting is such fall vibes! and honestly this is such a great idea to attempt. I'm pretty stubborn so I don't know if I could endure reading books I'm not a fan of, still that just means I'm closing myself off to books that I could potentially really love.

You thought the same thing as me when I read American Royals about how similar is the book with The Royals, I even mentioned it on my Goodreads review, and I even do research on internet to find if by any means the author got inspired by the TV show, but apparently she didn´t. By other hand, this year I read the whole series which is duology, and I must say that I liked the first book better than the second, if you thought the first book was a mess, second one would have give you a headache, seriously. So is fine if you don´t invest your time on reading it. I enjoy watching your videos!

Me: never heard of the first sister before this video Also me: adds to cart

I loved this video! I get so excited when you upload!

I just put American Royals on my TBR earlier today so this is perfect that you included it in this video because it's also outside of my fav genre. I got a little worried worried when you said you needed a web to keep track of what's going on because I think I'd struggle, but then you explained it a bit so I think I'll be fine haha. I'm interested to see if I feel the same as you once I read it hehe. Loved your yellow outfit!✨

Pls do a part 2!

Loved this video (as per usual) 🥰 Also, you look so cute with the scrunchies! Especially that yellow outfit!

your yellow top and scrunchie 🥺 so cute!

This was the first video of yours I stumbled across and I loved it!!

I really enjoy your video concepts!! Great video ☺

Just picked up The First Sister from my library this week and I’m loving it!!

I NEED TO READ FIRST SISTER! It reminds me so much of Handmaid's Tale which is one of my all time favorite favorite books and I think I would love this book. Also I enjoy your outfits so much throughout this video! They are so romantic and adorable! Where do you buy your clothes? hahah Great video. I always enjoy these so much :)

also if you're looking for more thrillers written by poc, i'd highly recommend Confessions by Kanae Minato! i just read it in january and it was so unique and it had a lot of conversations surrounding revenge which was so interesting

I am so glad I'm not alone in Young Adult being their least favorite genre. I feel like so many people like it, but I can't do it.

I'm so glad you liked When No One is Watching! I'm not into the genre either, but I had a hunch you might like it. Yay!!!

have never read a sci fi book before & the first sister really intrigued me! just ordered it and can’t wait to read it!😁

i have when no one is watching lined up for a video and i've heard mixed reviews for it. people who are avid thriller readers say it's not a good thriller and reads more as a contemporary. ALSO you said peter grew up nicely so uh👀guess i have a new show to binge. and finally, the first sister gives off major handmaid's tale vibes down to the auntie thing

Loved this reading vlog! When No One is Watching sounds so interesting. We have similar views on YA contemporary, it's never really done it for me. Another fab video :) x

I try to do this all the time and it never works out but I keep trying anyways lol. Love this concept for a video

I love post apocalyptic books too! Would you consider making a recommendation video about it? I'd love to see it from you 😍

I have the exact same feelings with thrillers- they’re definitely something I enjoy in the moment but I don’t think about later. There always seems to be *something* missing for me.

The First Sister sounds sooo good! Sci-Fi isn't a genre I gravitate towards, but I might pick this one up! 😍

Loved this video! Hearing your thoughts on thrillers, I HIGHLY recommend Megan Goldin's new book The Night Swim. It has a podcast element that really comes to life with the audiobook. Also, Ruth Ware's new book feels more like suspense rather than thriller and you may really enjoy it! (Also I'm sure you get a ton of recs for Riley Sager, but he may tick some of your boxes too! Home Before Dark may be a good place for you to check out!)

Wow! I have no clue that you don’t like thrillers! I’ll definitely pick up When No One Is Watching. Also, I think Fantasy readers can easily love sci-fi. Compared to space sci-fi of the past, the usage of scientific terms are not heavy anymore, and mostly are purely theoretical now than factual.

I’ve also moved away from YA unless it really has a plot that intrigues me. Also your outfits in this video!! So cute.

Just finished reading the sequel to american royals and I loved it! Can’t wait for more ... 💕

Your coordinating scrunchies and outfits are giving me life!!! I really like the idea of horror and thriller but it’s really hard for me to get into them. I also feel like I’m pulling away from YA and NA. Maybe I’m just getting old... 🙃

I read first sister as well an absolutely loved it!

Oooh if you love sci fi that has to do with space and strong female characters, I highly recommend The Diabolic by SJ Kincaid! I don't read a ton of sci fi myself but I really enjoyed it so take my recommendation with a grain of salt😅

The last book went on my tbr, because it sounds so good, and im have been having a rought time trying to read, and got real exicted for that one 😍. AND the first one, i been watching it, but i didnt know that it was a black person in it, so im going to think about it an extra time. But im happy that you had some good reads.

That yellow dress with the yellow scrunchy-look gave me major Belle vibes. :D Love it! For thrillers I always recommend Mercy by Jussi Adler-Olsen, the main character is quite clishé but the rest of the book is really good. I only ever read YA contemporary if it has a good representation of a minority. Those are great.

Omg I hadn’t heard of the first sister but I legit need to read it rnnnnn

Space Operas are definitely the way to go for sci-fi if you tend to prefer fantasy. They often are much more character driven and tend to follow fantasy genre convention with little to no heavy science info. It's like Star Wars, technically they are in space but really they are just wizards.

Those 3 books sound really good! Especially The First Sister

You completely sold me on The First Sister🌻

Yessss finally mentioned the tv show The Royals. That show is bomb!!! So underrated!! It is sooo like the book, but I still liked the book. But yes, the show is better.

Welp. Now I need to get The First Sister 🤣🙌 Also how do you rock a high ponytail so well? Gorgeous!!

Love your green-blue shirt you were wearing while reading When No One Is Watching! where's it from?

i was so sad when they cancelled the royals soooo i feel like i might give American Royalty a try

I can relate to not reading YA contemporary so much! Use to read it all the time, but now that I'm 33 I cannot relate to any of the issues the characters have anymore. If I read YA it's usually dystopian or fantasy.

omg completely forgot about The Royals tv show until you mentioned it lol

My heart broke when you said sci-fi 😭😂

I really want to read The First Sister 💛💛

ok I am going to read When No One is Watching and The First Sister

I don't consider YOU a thriller. I consider it literary contemporary just from the way it reads. I love that book with all my heart. There are SO many good thrillers but definitely sounds like you've had some blaahh ones

Oh my God, I LOVE The Royals. (Still bitter about it getting canceled.) Jasper Frost is one of my all time favorite characters. I loved him sooooo much.

You should read Red Rising, it's very easy and digestible sci fi, fantasy.

I also have the same issue with ya contemporary, whether they be hard hitting or romance I just can't connect with characters anymore

I love MM YA contemporary and I don't like contemporary where it follows a group of kids that mess up everything. I love YA contemporaries like Felix Ever After.

I think for thrillers you should try a Riley Sager novel!

I agree with young adult contemporary! It’s literally my last choice for whatever reason 🤷🏻‍♀️ anything that starts in a high school I almost immediately put down..

If you want to try an easily digestible sci-fi, try Hold Back the Stars by Katie Khan

I completely agree with you about American Royals!! I would have much rather just turn the Royals on 😂

I love thrillers and The Wives is the worst book I've ever read... I feel you there girl. lol

I was actually screeching when you were listing your most and least read genre because we definitely have such similar taste! Except I'd say I dabble into sci-fi a bit but issa BIG NO from me when it comes to historical fiction, I just can't seem to get into it :|

Oh my I too really hate YA contemporary. Truly I have never enjoyed any books in this genre but it seems that this is one of the most popular genre among Booktubes so I’m so happy to find one who doesn’t like it as well. BTW I love thrillers but I hate domestic thrillers too

I related when u said u rated thrillers 4 stars cuz u were trying hard to like them I find they can be good books that are well written but just it's not necessarily something I'm all that entertained by compared to other genres

the way i now NEED to read the first sister........

Not going to lie when you said “pleasure people” I felt so uncomfortable 🤮🤮 Love these videos xx

As thirsty and off topic as it may sound, you're so damn beautiful! 😤😤😤😤. Sorry it had to be said. 👀👀👀😅

The second book of American Royals is SO BAD and so not worth reading it. You would be so angry. Lol

Your not going to like When Nonone is Watching. It has both mental health and addiction in it.
