@@kellyseeksbooks WHAT?! Now I have to go and see for myself

@@kellyseeksbooks if you hugged me, I would’ve cried harder 😅 but it would’ve been appreciated I’m so glad you liked the video! It was really fun to share these books!

Chp 2: Braving the bus! #yabooktok #chooseyourownadventure #childhoodbooks

Your comments kill me, as always. And yesss, it was so emotional! These books raised me, and I forgot about the fun times we had together. It was a lot, even for a ruthless de-clutterer like myself. And yes, I knew you'd be concerned! If I didn't include that last part in the video, I was gonna text you as reassurance xDDDD

Also, listen, Gail Carson Levine wrote the book, but Anne Hathaway IS Ella Enchanted.

Bienvenido a la clase de español 🇪🇸✨#whatif #chooseyourownadventure #yabooks #booktok

Thank you Vi! it's a delight to see you active again. And never fear -- you can leave and come back to my comment section whenever you want.

can't wait for you to read it! and THANK YOU! It's literally one of my favorite bits of b-roll I've ever captured in my adventures

Tress said, "Hold my beer" lol

It deserves all the love!

Tress is a good baby-Sanderson book! Also The Rithmatist, which is more middle grade! So highly recommend those two. I'm so glad you liked it! I can't wait to hear more about your thoughts on it. And RIGHT?! He's so underrated, and his books ask you to ponder a lot of interesting questions about the meaning of life and art. YOU have an aweseom day Johno!

lol I guess you like them more murderous than I do, cuzzin xD

THANK YOU! Subjunctive is the hardest part of learning spanish lol

@@my0.25lifecrisis it definitely is!

lol Angela and Dwight honestly might be more open to it, which is saying a lot!

@@my0.25lifecrisis haha that’s true

so close! I'm glad it finally arrived!

@@my0.25lifecrisis I've been reading the Family Fang. I'm about 3/4 of the way through it. So far, I've really enjoyed it! Waiting to share my thoughts until I'm completely finished. But I'm actually digging the parents. Back in the day, I used to love doing bizarre things in public just to see people's reaction. My ex-wife and I would wait in empty grocery store aisles for people to turn into them and she would pretend to punch me and I would go flying into something. Their looks were usually priceless.

I'm glad you thought so, Jennifer! xD

We fight at dawn, Chas!⚔️ I will not give up my Khaleesi so easily I’m glad you liked it! All the credit goes to Rosika and Kelly 😁

It’s ok Kelly. And in any case, the bigger issue is her ✨TRAUMA✨ 😅 I’m glad you liked how much thought I put into it! I have to be strategic-my life is at stake 😂💀

@@my0.25lifecrisis yeah but most murderous girlies have trauma so...lol

oooh I'll have to check her out! I love a murderous woman with depth. Hahaha "if she's going to kill you, she'll have fun doing it" -- see that's what we're trying to avoid! xD The Family Fang saga is quite the adventure! I'm glad it's on its way though!

@@my0.25lifecrisis Yeah,a different copy is now making it's way to me. Hopefully this one doesn't end up lost in the mail. I suspect something was fishy with the last one. Maybe it will come this week. I actually have time to read with work being slow.

of course, cuz! You deserve it!

@@my0.25lifecrisis ❤️

Thanks so much! Hope you are safe and enjoying life as well!

Thanks Chas! It takes a bit of work and forethought so I’m glad ppl appreciate it!

lol it says "I have cool tattoos under here, I'm just cold." (or something like that). It's kinda a lie b/c I only have 1 cool tattoo though and not multiple.

@@my0.25lifecrisis whelp I guess you're gonna have to rectify that LOL

Trust me, I intend to. Just thinking long and hard about this thing that will be on my body FORVER…again 😂

don't rush! lol Kevin Wilson will always be there. Hope you're having a good day too!

Thank you! I really enjoy doing these vlog/tag formats, and it means a lot that you enjoy them. Also so glad to have made friends with you.

@@my0.25lifecrisis ❤️

Lol I will carve in there myself 😅. And I can’t wait to see your Oregon life on the RUclips and in real life!

Yes! And it’s a great writing exercise too. I can’t wait to see your vlog. I love seeing the cool places you’ve been

Let’s find out! 😄

Omg I’m honored! Lol now I’m nervous about the number of ppl borrowing this book based on my recommendation. My reputation as a booktuber is at stake😅

@@my0.25lifecrisis it really is 😂

the plan is working lol. Welcome!

You got it!🫡

Ah! So you understand me! I'm so glad you liked Nothing To See Here -- that's definitely the one book I've heard the most ppl talk about. I think you're going to love the absurdity of The Family Fang, at least I hope so! Please give me an update when you read it :D

GET to hear me die? What are you trying to say Kelly? 😅💀

@@my0.25lifecrisis not quite last words, but last kerfuffle. You would have truly "given your all", including your life, to this channel, which is quite a lot to give to a free platform LOL.

@@kellyseeksbooks that honestly sounds like it could be in a line from a Kevin Wilson novel lol

It’s working! 🙏🏼 I’m excited and nervous about what you think about it 😅

@@my0.25lifecrisis Don't be nervous. I'm sure I'll find it interesting. And I'll read it as soon as it comes in. I love the Anne Rice books I've been reading, but I could use a break in the middle of the Mayfair Witches series.

Well, after writing a long, drawn out history of why this book was so powerful to me and then have RUclips crash right when I posted it, I'm going to take that as some sign from the universe not to overshare. Or that RUclips needs to do some work on all of their unstable web pages that constantly crash due to too many ads, etc. Anyway... I'll just hit the high spots. I come from a family of musicians and I was really pushed into singing at a young age and when the chance arose, I just quit. It seemed like everyone was making my choices in life for me, so I chose the best way to take agency in my life was to just choose to do nothing. But at some point, one has to leave the past behind and move forward. Also, the ending really drew me in. This reminded me a lot of my father. At times, I felt I probably vilified him too much in my head. I thought that maybe I exaggerated to myself how much more time he spent with his music than his family. But I look back, and I realize that, while he did love us, the music truly was the first thing in his life. He's passed now. But he's been on my mind a lot lately. But I think reading this might have finally made me take a close look back and see that good people can get caught up in a facet of their life that leaves the ones they love out of it. Not my fault and I can move on. I said it probably more eloquently the first time, but I got it down now. Going to save to make sure RUclips doesn't crash again... Oh, and before I go, let me say I actually LOVED the book! It's written in a manner that it gets you from the word go and keeps you intrigued throughout. The first half where you just see the bizarre goings-on of the characters is fun. And once you know them, the last half is must-read. I felt just as confused as the characters. I would go from one possibility to the next in my mine and they all seemed equally plausible. It's funny, tragic, weird...Would probably make a really great movie if you could get a director who could stick to the script. But it's fine as a book. I was taking my time, taking it all in, reading a chapter or two a day. But at the end, I had to tear through and see what the heck was happening! It's a great read that is really easy to get into. And what seems weird at the first will seem normal by the end. Thank you SO much for the recommendation! It was nice to get an awesome read and even more nice to maybe get some closure in part of my life that I definitely need to move on from! As someone once said, don't lose your future living in your past.

Thank you so much for sharing as much as you did. Love that RUclips is unintentionally looking out for you. The internet can be a scary place to be vulnerable. (I'm sorry it so long to reply -- just b/w moving back to the states and adjusting to life stuff, it was a litle overwhelming). I'm glad to know this book resonates w/ other people. It's so different from other stories I've read, and w/ uniquely flawed characters. Fun fact -- the book WAS made into a movie. Although I get the sense that it wasn't adapted well, which is a shame.

@@my0.25lifecrisis Now I'm going to have to go look for the movie. Thanks for the info! And welcome back to the States!

Fun and time consuming! But thank you for the support!

Thank you! And yes, sending prayers to Jenny, let’s hope her silence is because she’s busy working on her next 3 hour masterpiece

lol except for death and paying taxes, everything in life is only for nooooow love you too!

🌺💕

I would love to see you make word art of this. And thank you! 💕😁

@@my0.25lifecrisis Oohh I might just do that haha!

Muchas gracias! I really appreciate it 🙏🏼

Always! And same to you!😁

Thaaaank you! Lol you’ve also been busy with life, so I knew you’d get it, V 😁. Lol the way I also laughed at myself when I remembered I had hobbies 😂

And same to you Jennifer! ❤
