I completely agree with being frustrated when characters don't stand up for themselves, I always scream at them to just say what's bothering them😂 Also, I've noticed your nails, and I think they look so much better when you do them yourself🥹🥹

@bookswithellen 4 ай бұрын

oh no i like this set of nails🥲 i’m taking a break from doing them myself so probs won’t have my own ones for a while!

@anjaz5292 4 ай бұрын

They still look great. I think I just prefer your technique😅 Forgot to say, yes F1 these two races has been so boring. Hoping Australia race brings more excitement!

I totally agree with you about F1. I'm not a Max Verstappen fan either but he dominates and wins practically every race. I was hoping this season would be different. Lately, I've been more interested in the off the track drama more than the actual races. I love your channel by the way.

it makes things very boring doesn’t it!! i like him as a person but never been a proper fan, would much rather a bit more of a mixture in terms of race winners🤣 and thank you!🤍

I am really over the Max domination (have been for a year, let's be real 😆) I'd love to see someone else win for a change! I just want the season to get a bit more exciting and have a close fight. ANYWAY great video Ellen! I like your wrapped books videos 😊

Emily wilde is such a pretty looking book ... may just have to pick it up based on that 🙈 Im glad that you were able to salvage the tapes for your videos! Should ask Ami for a book x F1 embroidered top 😉 No one will be upset if you don't upload exactly on your normal days - we are all human! I hate book slumps - when they happen i just take a break from reading or re read one of my favourite books. Hope you're able to get out of it soon 🤞 Also I love wrapped up videos - the element of not knowing what will be picked is exciting!

@bookswithellen 4 ай бұрын

it’s so gorgeous isn’t it!! i really think you’d like it, very whimsical and fun, doesn’t take itself too seriously which is a nice change from super high fantasy!! and you might be onto something there with the f1 jumper🤭 book slumps are awful - i’ve picked up a fast paced romance since and it is going by super quick, so hopefully it’s dragging me out!!!

I've been in a weird book slump for like the last 2 years...I have some deteriorating health problems and I've found that the worse I feel, all I want to read is books that have nothing to do with reality at all and I used to love so many genres.... So I guess its not a total book slump, but yet, it still does feel like a book slump because I want to want to read all of these books and yet, I just have no motivation to read them....if that makes sense. And I know just what you mean because I just forced myself to finish up my library books so I could take them back and I felt the exact same way - objectively, they were all really good, I just did not want to be reading them, lol.
