I need more shorts like this 😂🤣

Appreciate you spoiling every book

Loved this one this is my favourite so far I really would like to read a few of these, but definitely the year of magical thinking. Oh, and by the way, love the ribbons 🧡

Hi I’m going to need this to be a series thank you so much

Dorothy WOULD hate the Australian/uk cover with her whole heart

Hi from Stanthorpe! If you need a hand, I haven't done anything like this before, but I do write the most shocking stuff I have ever read in my life. It just is meant to help contextualize a video. If you need any help. You do seem fine

I would ❤ to see your reading wrap ups/5 star reads!

Wait Jurassic Park was originally a novel?! Intriguing. Fab recs as always x

didion calls to me like a siren and this has convinced me to dive in

Welcome to BookTube! I hope you enjoy the community here. I can definitely relate to being a mood reader and reading in phases. For years I read primarily historical fiction, but I got burned out. Then I was really into psychological thrillers. Last year I read a lot of romance. Now I'm wanting to get back into thrillers. 🤣But I do generally read a variety of genres, I just have my ever-changing focuses. I haven't read The book Thief yet, but it's one of my best friend's favorite books. It's on my TBR.

Hi, Laura! I'm looking forward to hearing about all bookish things you want to share with us. From an oldie content creator to a newbie, welcome aboard. We're so glad to have you here!

As a passionate colour coordinated shelf hater this is the first reason I’ve ever heard someone give about why they do that that truly made sense to my brain and you’ve now made me question part of my identity

Having the books sorted by colour makes a lot of sense. Someone would have to be close enough to read the titles to know they aren't arranged by name/author, but anyone in the room could glance over and see the satisfying colour sections

Great recommendations! p.s. what an adorable plushie on your shelf!❤

love your picks, i'm adding the girls to my tbr! about underrated books, i think the centre by ayesha manazir siddiqi is really overlooked and i just love it to pieces; it's about language and translation, and how it defines us and culture. i think it would be up your alley!

Reverse reading?

I’m so glad Awad is on your list! Have you read Rouge? One of favs from last year. Adding Dinan’s book to my tbr for this year.

um you look goregous in this video

Almost 30 minute video? I’m sat. I’m active listening.

I can't stand it when authors use virginity as a commodity. It only had value in the past because it was just another way to control women. It truly gives me the ick when I find it in a novel.

HAVE to comment on the Obernewtyn series. Criminally slept on is an understatement and I love that you brought this one up! You encapsulated it so well. It is a damn brilliant series, so much better than others in the genre that are so popular. It can be drawn out and slow, but that’s because of how much it explores the inner depths of Elspeth’s experience.

The best thing I do to help with reading slumps is aggressively try to avoid hitting one. Which sounds dumb as hell, but I've found if I'm churning back to back mega fantasy world building super complex books back to back my brain eventually gets tired and wants a break. So I try to alternate between challenging or heavy topic reads and smooth brain pure dopamine fun reads. The variety between kinds of reading making me excited to keep going regardless of how 'good' it is, I just want to keep having fun

I love this kind of content!! You just got yourself a new subscriber! May God keep blessing you and your channel!

Fantastic recs as always, also love your nail colour. Funny as I saw another booktuber complaining about The List and I’m a Fan, so wrote them off even though I thought they sounded interesting. Excited to read them now!

📖🪱💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

Thank god I’ve almost finished the previous list I needed more

I have a lot of reasons why I personally dislike romance novels. Because I don’t relate to them, because the dynamics are often toxic, etc. But I think adult women should be able to read whatever they want. It’s pretty sexist that people go after women who like romance. My only issue is with younger girls reading stuff like this, because they internalize a lot of the unhealthy relationship dynamics in them. But I also have a problem with teenaged boys watching anime with problematic relationship dynamics in them that propagate misogyny. Or gaming channels that spew bigotry.

Ok but the chemistry between past and future Laura is palpable 🥵

I love all of these ideas! An Audible subscription is on my Wishlist this year 🤓

The fact that you started with animal farm made me laugh

I was about to comment that books are inherently political but you're soo right! There's absolutely nothing political about animals rising up against farmers 🥰🥰🥰 (joke obv) Edit: Hunger games is awesome. I love reading about kids playing archery.

📚 🪱 💔🤍💙

Read The Road over a decade ago and still recall it and the feelings it gave me relatively clearly . It’s one of my favorite dystopians I’ve ever read, & I think was one of the ones that got me loving the genre. No spoilers, but wonder if you’ve heard a certain theory about the book - one that crossed my mind but apparently crossed more minds than mine . Blahdiggityblah 📚 🪱 💔🤍💙

Summer hate is Treason! (But in Australia, early Autumn is really where its at)

Summer haters club forever

The chair stealing crime must be addressed look at that tiny RAGE

Love the reassurance that you don't have to be amazing at these to enjoy them!

Love love loved these summaries!! And it’s nice to see another opinion on Really Good Actually, I enjoyed it but I don’t see it talked about a lot Also low key thought The Road was dry prose about Americans fishing or something, now I know what it’s actually about I’ll def have to give it a go!

my soul needed this today

YAP FOR UUUSSS ❤‍🔥

This video alone deserved me subscribing. Gosh, giiiirl, love all these! Hugs from Budapest, Hungary, Europe. ❤

Oooooh!!! I love the topic!!❤❤❤

I added all of these books to my tbr! Thank you for the recommendations! The way you described these stories hooked me immediately!!

Oooh loving the recs. I love that there are a few books here I’d never even heard of 🧡

Give us a trinket haul!! Show us the babies!!

Not me looking at my shelf that definitely has two of your books on it 👀 Also, The Road will ALWAYS be relevant 🙏🏼🙏🏼
