nine books i would literally sell my soul to read for the first time again

nine books i would literally sell my soul to read for the first time again
i get why reading them closely makes L,T sounds beat up and done, but i've read years apart and then reread the love hypothesis later and thought it was of course veryyyy similar but idk nicely done? also dr. L is very similar to SO MANY professors i worked under i guess i just loved watching some justice get done lol please take the time to hug your local girl in stem friend
hahah so valid
i recently reread the love hypothesis after reading Love, Theoretically. By know I've reread all of them and truly the improvement is THERE. The plot thickens a little, but she keeps the bantering and humour light and compelling which i LOVE. and yeah they're all kind of similar, but at the same time she does it better and better and the changes are enough for me to feel like a completly different book. ok as a woman in STEM myself maybe im a little biased, but she does write our struggles perfectly can't wait to hear your thoughts on love, theretically my fav so far...
im so glad i found your channel omg i lovedddd your takes, most people just give ali's book shit and honestly is the formula repeated everytime? sorta, but she makes it GOOOOD. you havent read not in love please give it a try and tell us what you think!!
thank you! it’s on my tbr :)
WAIT- YOU DON'T WANNA READ HAUNTING ADELINE?!!!
ummmm no lmaoo no hate to people who do but im staying away from that one 😭😭
Bride was aaalllll the werewolf tropes. Very much reminded me of a Sterek Teen Wolf AU. I quite enjoyed the missing friend mystery & the political machinations, that held my attention more than the relationship did tbh.
so valid haha
Loved this video😍 Would love to see a popular booktok books reading vlog with Reckless and maybe Just For The Summer❤
just for the summer is in a vlog coming soon !! <3
@sophie_jo Oh my god yay! LOVE THAT BOOK😭
this is so fun to watch 👀 i feel like i should do this too but i'm still deluding myself that i'll finish them all one day 😂
you can do it in parts lmao trust me it's so satisfying
I just did this today I’m down to 360 books
what was your starting number 😂😂
this is a fun idea! I have like 300 books in my tbr lmao, i should do this too also, I noticed you have the second book of the mara dyer series in yours, and that's a trilogy where you need to read them in order so you might wanna fix that! But some books you had like #1 and #4 might have been those kind of series that are only a series bc the secondary characters in one book are the main ones in another, and you might have been interested in the plot of book 1 and 4 but not 2 and 3
yea you should! i'll go check the mara dyer book ty for catching that :)
THATS A LOT OF BOOKS😍😭
I KNOW LMAO SOMEONE STOP ME
@@sophie_jo rip bank account
Have you read "the kite runner" ?
no i havent! what's it about?
@@sophie_jo The Kite Runner is literally just. A best friend, about two best friends, a sacrifice of one, and the betrayal of the other. It's about a father betraying his son, a father betraying both his sons. It's about the goodness in someone despite the world beating him down over and over again, it's about death, grief, anger, pain. It's about the ultimate redemption of a boy who made one mistake, and then so many more. It's about a man who's path to redemption is weaving through his past. It's about another little boy who's already been through too much in his little life, it's about the love of a family you've never known. It's, "For you... a thousand times over!
Would love to see a reading vlog for Bride, and also your vest is so cute<3
tysm!!
when it comes to the epilogue it really depends if I want to keep on reading what happens next or if I just want the book to be over and be done with it lol! but I am with you with the rest <3
valid haha
Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read. Isaiah 34:16
I agree with pretty much all of these. there have been plenty of times where I finish a book and feel that there was a lot of parts that could have been condensed without compromising the story. longer doesn't always = better! and also agree with character death / serious injury. if the author is trying to convince me that the stakes are high, I want to feel like there are actual consequences
yess omg totally agree
first one and last one are so real!! i recently read a book and i felt there was such a natural point where the male love interest should've died and it was lowk unrealistic that he lived tbh. i would've rather he died and read about the fmc's grief and recovery and learning to recover from previous trauma on her own now that she had begun her healing process w the mmc. with that being said this was a more happily ever after type romance so obvi that didn't happen. and for the last one i actually hate epilogues they typically add nothing lol. one time i read a book and the epilogue actually made it worse and moved my rating down .5 stars lmao
yess omg i totally agree with you especially with the epilogues thing 😭😭
Yes! I agree with these opinions so much!
good to know its not just me hahaha
I love Abby Jimenez! I also very much enjoyed The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, it was so interesting and nothing like I had ever read before.
hiii mrs. marsha haha and yes i love both of those sm
1. TBOSBAS, Thunderhead, Hunger Games, Station Eleven, Andromeda Strain, and The Priory of the Orange Tree 2. Thunderhead & Catching Fire 3. Uhh Eruption by Michael Crichton 4. Idk 5. The Priory of the Orange Tree & Macbeth 6. Suzanne Collins LMAO 7. Ead, Sabran, Rowan, Citra, and Ravi (and red & blue) 8. The Road 9. AGGGTM & Thunderhead 10. The Priory of the Orange Tree & A Day of Fallen Night 11. Skyward, Dune, Jurassic Park, Sphere, Weyward, Contact, The Running Man, Cloud Cuckoo Land, Congo, Timeline, Golden Son, Airframe, State of Fear, Descendant of the Crane, wool, and the poppy war
im getting very dystopian fantasy vibes from this haha
@@sophie_jo you would be very correct (also scifi)
I think the TBR question needs to be changed to “what’s your next 5-10 on your TBR” lmao it’s soooo hard to choose I swear 😭 Ps I love your channel!
haha ikrrr!! also tysm
love love love looooveee
🤎🤎
Great video! I'm just wondering, are you still going to make reading journal videos? If so, at what chanel? Anyways I LOVE this channel so much xx Also I bought Part Of Your World from the bookstore today, I cant wait to read it!
thank youu! honestly im not sure about reading journal videos. they are fun but also time consuming. if i do any more they’ll probably be on the bujo channel, but ill do reading wrap ups over here every 2 months which will have me talking about the same books without the journal aspect. :) also i really hope you enjoy part of your world it’s so good
@@sophie_jo Thanks<3
if you want a good second chance book you should try reading seven days in june by tia williams, probably one of the best books ever!
i’ve heard sooo many good things about that book. i’m adding it to my tbr :)
I loved this video!!!!! I’ve never seen this type of video before, such a unique concept. 👍🏻
wow really? i def copied this video idea from other book too creators haha
When you were talking about Never Ever I thought it sounded like Things We Never Got Over by Lucy Score before I realized you were talking about one of her books!! That series would be so good if it stopped at 350 pages!! They're all just wayy too long
yess omg it had so much potential but just way too long 😪😪
Oh my god the top looks soooo cute on you!!
tysm chloe :))
I literally clicked because of the top!!
@@beans2222 LMAO its hollister :)
I have a shelf on my Goodreads for any book I DNF’d after more than 15% (if I read less than that, then I don’t bother tracking it), and there are 68 books from just the last 20 months 😳😳
yk thats good tho! life is so short why waste time finishing books that you don't like :)
I bought all the twisted series and I’m pretty positive that’s the last time I bought all the books in a series without reading the first book first. I’ve managed to read the first two but I did not have a good time at all. The last two are sitting on my tbr pile when they really should be in a dnf pile. I’ll probably force myself to try them eventually since I paid for them but it taught me not to do that anymore.
oof i feel you. i try not to buy series either unless i’ve read them all. you can always sell the books! :’)
@@sophie_jo I can’t as I have this toxic trait that makes me keep all my books, even those I’ve DNF’d 🤦🏻♀️ I’ll probably die one day crushed under all my books😂😂😂😂
@@bethmetcalf3447 hahaha
Where do you actually read these books?
on my kindle! :)
@@sophie_jo ok thank you gurl!!
I love where the crawdads sing
righttt
forgot to put in the picture for it happened one summer! mbb but really loved that book by tessa bailey as well :))
I am reading Final Offer (Dreamland Billionaires #3) by Lauren Asher on kindle unlimited, and Once Upon A Broken Heart by Stephanie Garber in the UK covers which are so beautiful!
omg i love the uk covers so much! would you say the other books in the dreamland billionaire series are better than the first? book one was so meh for me
@@sophie_jo The last two books are my favorites. The last two books are such easy and quick reads.
I loved Fourth Wing and Iron Flame! I gave them both five stars! The third book comes out in January. I can’t wait for book three! I loved Harry Potter! I grew up with it.
i can't wait for book 3 either !!
Love you Sophie!!!! This is awesome! Because I normally don’t read books but the way you describe books in such detail is truly amazing!
aww tysmm! i appreciate you :)
The way you said that "THAT" scene from Hunting Adeline is horrifying and he needs to go to jail and be on electric chair makes me wanna question my mental status. 🤓 Why the h*ck I finished it and liked it. LOL!
hahaha okok listen im not here to yuck people’s yum but i just personallyyyyy won’t be reading it lmao.
@@sophie_jo don't worry, i understand it's us who enjoyed it are the problem here! haha i also hate Adeline for being too submissive but yea, i finished the book tho
Please make a review about Once Upon a Broken Heart Series or if you haven't read it yet, please give it a try. ✨ I really enjoyed your videos!
tysm! i haven’t read it but my sister did so maybe i can steal her books … 🤭🤭
manacled looks so interesting
you def need to read it omg
100% Yes, Ana Huang’s twisted series is so toxic. I think that was the last series that I bought all at once because of book tube. Now I buy the first book, if I like then and only then will I buy the rest. I also have not liked any of Emily Henry’s books, they’re just not for me and that’s okay. I’m always glad when there’s another person who has similar views to mine because it feels so rare 😂
glad someone agreeesss 😭😭 i was sad that ana huang didn’t work out tho bc she has so many books out i wish i enjoyed them yk? haha
@@sophie_jo But now you get to find books that you’ll actually love in stead of toxic ones. There’s so many great books out there and we don’t have enough time to read them all 😀
Please read Emily Henry’s Happy Place first. I love her writing but completely agree with all your opinions and Happy Place is just her best book.
oh you think? it’s on my tbr fs i need to get around to it haha
Have you read the invisible man yet? If not then I would highly recommend it. Its amazing and I love it ❤ :)
no but i’ve heard about it! my friend read it and enjoyed it :)
Omg I’m so on the Shiver/The Wolves of Mercy Falls train I used to love this series so much and I feel no one talks about it!! I loved the ink in the book matches the cover of the book as well.
YES OMG it seems underhyped but i love it. also i never got the paperbacks so i never knew the ink matches but now i need them haha
