Reading books and sharing my thoughts.
Talking about chronic illness.
Also, I'm bored. Felt like doing something, want to come along?
So for now this is the Channel Schedule:
Tuesdays: Book Reviews.
Thursdays: Sims 4 Builds.
Sunday: Vlogs and Random things. This is rare because I barely leave my cave.

Love the witches hat. It’s good to try out some different types of books. I have been in a reading slump, so unfortunately I didn’t read much
Thanks! Too bad about the reading slump. I hate it when that happens.
@@brandyreads reading short story anthology help
I just walked through a Macy’s and it looks like Santa 💩 Christmas trees in there 😂. If you want to do a Christmas vlog, then have fun. As long as you don’t play Mariah Carey’s all I want for Christmas is you, because I will mute that video 😂. I liked that wall decor and the mug was cute, you can’t beat those prices. I need to look for a Christmas wreath in November.
No Christmas music. I can't take it hehehe
cute hat
Thanks! I look nuts hehehe
I have done that myself, where I start reading a book and I say “wait a minute, this sounds familiar”. This is why I add the books in my DNF folder, so I don’t make that mistake again 😂. I did read How To Marry a Marquis, I don’t remember what I thought about it, because it’s been a long time, and I’m glad you loved it.
Smart. I really need to start doing that lol
At least you’ve enjoyed both of these books for the most part, I just recently picked up a cozy mystery that’s a Christmas book. Hopefully I can read it in December. I got it for a 1.00, so if I don’t like it I didn’t pay much.
Nice. That's one of the reasons I love thrifting so much.
I have read a few trad published horror books and I wasn’t scared at all.
trad publishing has been disappointing lately.
I have a Dollar Tree by me and my daughter’s and I love going there during the holiday season. My eldest loves finding things to decorate her room or mini stuff for her dolls.
I’ve been re-watching the first season of Buffy, and I can see how much better film quality has gotten, because the show is physically too dark in some places. I need to get to my local library more often, I know I’m lucky because mine is right down the street 🫣. I donate a lot of my books to them.
So lucky to have it just down the road. 😄
That young adult novel would have annoyed me 😂. I have a few YA books on my shelves I need to read one day
That would make for a fun video
I'm in the middle of reading Salty Dog now. Be back to watch this afterwards
I finished reading this one. I really enjoyed it. The town characters are really wonderful. I love them. There is a shock twist towards the end that I didn't see coming. I love this series. It's very addictive 😊
Good idea. I don't want to spoil anything for you.
I finally got book 7. Now I have the entire 8 book series. I'll be reading book 5 soon then I'll check out your review
@@JamesSedgwick-jp6hh Awesome! I hope you like the books
I do hope Josh gets rid of Sue. She could be killed off. The entire population of Pirate's Cove would be under suspicion. LOL
lol.
I'll hold off on this one until after I read Mystery At The Masquerade. I ordered it and the rest of the series. I'm just waiting for them to arrive in the mail.
Nice. Hopefully, it will come in soon.
@@theforgetfulscholar I have them all now except for number seven which should arrive sometime next week
@@JamesSedgwick-jp6hh Nice!
@@theforgetfulscholar I finished reading this one a little while ago. I loved it. I kinda liked the fact that there was no confrontation between Ellery and the culprit for this one because the book offered a much more lengthy and much needed scene between Ellery and Jack instead. Sometimes it becomes overkill if the author uses the the same formula through out each book. It's nice when a writer switches that up once in awhile.
@@JamesSedgwick-jp6hh Fair enough
I love this series so far. I love the cute town characters. I adore Watson. I have high hopes for Ellery and Jack. Ellery's restoration of the family mansion is a nice arc.
I completely agree
I love Ellery too and was bit niffed with Jack as well. However compared to the love interests in some of Josh's other series Jack is a breath of fresh air. LOL
Ellery is such a sweety
“Then Lottie shows up….fcking bish” 😂. That was hilarious.
I finished reading Murder At Pirate's Cove this morning. I loved it. I actually enjoyed the mystery part of the story too and I think the writer played fair. I was actually surprised at who dunnit. There were enough clues there but the author was smart by guiding my attention elsewhere. LOL
I haven't read Secrets of Skull House yet. I finished reading Murder At Pirate's Cove this morning. I loved it
I enjoyed the complete series.
@@theforgetfulscholar I only have the first 2 at the moment but I plan to get the rest of the series
@@JamesSedgwick-jp6hh Nice! 😁
I just finished this one and have ordered the rest of the series
I just got done reading Say You Love Me
I hope you enjoyed it.
❤📚
👻 🎃
I’m so glad you did a review of this book. There aren’t many RUclipsr who review the types of stories I enjoy so thank you! (New subscriber)
love this video
Thanks 😁
@@theforgetfulscholar 🥰🥰🥰
I recently read the magic of you and I felt so bad for Warren. I completely understand why he was so bitter.
Yeah you can completely understand why he was the way he was.
❤
I like the Night World cover
I love Murder She Wrote - Matlock too!! Feisty elderly people solving mysteries/crimes is a cozy go to sub-genre for me 🤣 Nice haul and vid! ✨😊
Thanks 😄
I’ve never read L.J. Smith. I watched the Vampire Diaries. I have heard the books based on the show weren’t very good
I'm sad to say that it's true. But I like more of her books than not.
I went into my local Hobby Lobby and found some fall decor I liked. Not a lot of Halloween decor out yet in my area
Me too. Give me all the Halloween decor lol
I’ll be skipping One For The Money, they made a movie but it didn’t look good
I enjoyed the Stephanie Plum series. It was good popcorn. The snappy dialog, and Grandma Mazur's wake-going habits, were just fun. I read them well past the 20th installment. But it was always popcorn and I didn't bother tracking details from book to book. Go ahead and jump into much later books. Familiar characters, other Jersey settings, and the perennial "who's the better love interest?" And it's "e-VON-a-vich" Shannon
Thanks! I'll give the series another try. 😁
I’m going to start Johanna Lindsey soon, I’ll be posting a vlog in September. It’ll be her older standalone books, Captive Bride, A Pirates Love and Paradise Wild, so I will see what happens with those. A Charmed Death sounds weird, yeah she’s a teen so she’s the villain? Those perverted old 🍑 men were sleeping with a TEEN! 🤦🏻♀️
Tigger warning for Captive Bride and A pirates Love. I haven't read Paradise Wild. Hope it's good. Hopefully you like the books.
I wish I had that cover of Tender Rebel, so pretty. I still love the old school painting covers. There are two other Johanna Lindsey books I still need to find (and hopefully I don’t get ripped off for the price 😬).
It is such a beautiful cover. I miss covers like that. A lost art.
📚 💜
i found your channel by accident and now im obsessed, great work keep it up:)
Thanks
I'm so excited for Halloween 😁
Me too.
Yeah Halloween shopping 🎃🛍️
I need to read V.E. Schvab, I will get to them eventually 😂. I’m glad you enjoyed the book
I haven’t tried the fantasy books i bought yet, I will get there eventually 😂. I’m used to the same genre, so it can be harder to go outside what I’m used to. That Mary Balogh book sounds frustrating 😬. I have how many of her books I need to get too.
You are hilarious. 🤣
They only time I "enjoy" cooking is when it's themed. I have the Game of Thrones cookbook and a Japanese cookbook
Nice!!
I wish I won the lottery, because I would hire my own personal chef 😂. I don’t mind cooking, but there are days when I need a break. Especially because my kitchen doesn’t have a lot of ventilation (old apartment building), so in the summer it gets hot as balls in my kitchen 🥵🫠. I believe Mary Balogh is pronounced “below”. I believe that is the correct pronunciation. I love sprayed edges, and I wish there were more. Little known fact about me, one summer I worked a ride for a carnival, that was an interesting experience 😂.
Thanks for the help on her last name. 😁
I have this one with the original cover, it’s so pretty
That’s a shame that you didn’t like the Hannah Shield book, unfortunately authors can’t hit it out of the park every time. Oh well. Hopefully the next book will be better.
I hope so too. 😁
Why is her personality? 😂
"Sophie is boring," 😢 MY heart! 💔😢
Lately I’ve been going into books blind as well.
I’m happy to see that you are enjoying Emily Windsor, I just recently put one of her books on my kindle
nice! hope you like them.
I’ve never heard of Emily Windsor, I’ll have to add her onto my TBR list.
I'm enjoying her...so far. hehehe
It’s always good to go back to a much loved book 🥰
Sometimes I just need to visit an old favorite. It's good for the soul lol
