Gabby, I know like me you don't generally read book series (mainly because we don't read fantasy) but I loved the 5 book series of thrillers by Rachel Caine beginning with "Stillhouse Lake". The books are really fast paced and I became so invested in the characters that I read all 5 books over a recent 3 day Bank Holiday weekend! That is so rare for me. I would love you to do a reading vlog reading a whole series and I would highly recommend this 5 book thriller series. Unfortunately, the author died of cancer after finishing the fifth book. 😒 (There is a 6th Book in the series but that was written by another author (after Rachel Caine's death based on her notes) and I have not picked that one up yet). Loved this reading vlog, as always. Added a few to my TBR. ❤

If you haven't read, Wrong Place, Wrong Time by Gillian McAllister....it's hands down the BEST novel I've read in a while! Totally different twist on time loops, & incredibly hard to put down. Even if you can anticipate certain things, you'll still be blind-sided. The author does a wonderful job of keeping the reader from becoming confused by all the details.

Squeee! I’m so happy you’re loving Death Note!! Absolutely one of my fave mangas and animes. I have L’s symbol on my car. My sister-in-law went to an anime convention and someone cosplayed as L. She said he just randomly sat at a table with his feet up and had tea and cakes in front of him while watching people all day. GENIUS.

Gabby don't be afraid about your wisdom teeth. I have had bad dentist experiences and my Windom teeth removal was the easiest with nothing scary. I also am afraid of needles. But all I remember is, they gave me the laughing gas, I was laughing and hiccuping, and then woke up cold. No memory even of the iv going in. And I didn't have any pain after the removal, but they do give you meds of you need. You'll just be tired when you go home. And then you can eat soft foods like kraft dinner and mashed potatoes and icecream. You'll need to rinse out the holes with a syringe. Use room temp water. You will be ok! Fillings and cleanings are worse, in my opinion. I know it seems scary, but honestly if I can do it you can for sure!

Yes, with respect to the little digression into film direction, editing, and by extension blocking (a scene) I found myself doing exactly those things recently. I've been re-reading all the Shakespeare plays (and continually amazed they could produce them using only the sparest sets, backdrops, and scenery!), thinking about how the actors are delivering their lines, where they are facing, and what gestures they would use. It must be a special experience writing a play knowing who will play the parts.

You should read the OG of creepy children stories: "The Bad Seed" by William March. It was written in the 1950s and it discusses the possibility of evil being a part of your genetics. It is more subtle and very unnerving!

Hi Gabby! I just started watching your channel and I love your videos so far! Since you seem to like family drama type of thrillers, I would highly recommend The Last Mrs Parrish by Liv Constantine (which is the pen name for the two sisters who wrote it together). The main character, Amber, becomes obsessed with the neighborhood's golden couple and wants their lifestyle for herself. But the closer she gets to the family, the more the reader notices some weird things about the family that don't add up to their perfect image. Then, whatever your assumptions are on what's going really going on in the family, the book's second half absolutely flips on its head.
