Tier ranking fantasy book worlds aka Elaina sends us to our doom 🌏💫💀
There's nothing better than judging a fictional book character on their unrealistic choices in a completely made up fantasy world. But it's time we humbled ourselves. In this video we tier rank popular bookish fantasy worlds and whether or not we'd survive them. Elaina makes some absolutely unhinged choices that will surely lead us both to ruin. Enjoy!!

    I haven't read a lot of these, but from the ones I have, I generally agree with you gals. I also would put up with a lot if I were to get a dragon myself👀 I probably wouldn't survive long, but it would be so cool! Though I would probably do better in Middle Earth as a Hobbit, given my lazy constitution (and I'm pretty much one height-wise anyway😂)

    Of course it's valid to love other seasons, but fall is just objectively the best😗🧡 Seriously though, love the vlog, and the fall haul! The snail is my favourite, what a cutie🧡 I really appreciate your reflection on From Blood and Ash, as I haven't been sure about whether I want to pick it up. Glad you liked Keeper of Enchanted Rooms, it sounds really adorable. Looking forward to all of the fall recs! My only fall TBR books at the moment are continuing on with the next book in the Veronica Speedwell Mystery series, A Murderous Relation, and a Promise in Fire by Jasmine Walt.

    A fall recommendation for the Jane Eyre lovers: Villette by Charlotte Bronte This is arguably my favorite Bronte work. Critics believe it is semi-autobiographical, and the reader can glean some insight into Charlotte's infamous love affair with a married man. Think: a haunted school in Belgium, enemies-to-lovers, Gothic vibes, unreliable narrator, ambiguous ending. **a lot of the dialogue is in French, so just be sure your copy has translations

    Happy Birthdays!!! Two of my sisters and I have birthdays within one week in May. My older sister is 2 days less than 2 years older than me, and I am 5 days less than six years older than the other sister (my third sister was born in June). I recently bought The Love of My Afterlife at Costco, but I haven’t read it yet (I’m kind of saving it until next year, when I plan to read all colorful and/or happy books…we’ll see how long that lasts, lol). I listened to The Husbands and it does get a bit repetitive in the middle, but then something happens that changes things up. You have me very intrigued with Station Eleven! I hope you both had wonderful birthdays.

The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova, Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte YA fic: The Luminaires and the Hunting Moon by Susan Dennard, The Drowned Woods and The Bone Houses by Emily Lloyd-Jones, The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert, Gallant by V.E. Schwab YA graphic novel: Over My Dead Body: A Witchy Graphic Novel by Sweeney Boo Juvenile Fic: The Bellwoods Game by Celia Krampien, The Night Gardener by Jonathan Auxier (this is wonderfully spooky!) Juvenile graphic novel: Bunnicula by James Howe, Garlic and the Vampire by Bree Paulsen (so cute, a hug in a book), Séance Tea Party by Reimena Yee (another hug in a book!) I love Alix Harrow's books! One of my fav authors! I really enjoyed Starling House.

    I had to pause to comment because I read Sweetbitter as I was starting my first ever serving job having moved to a new city just like the main character in the book and that was hella trippy. lol (also the book was just okay honestly) Edit: Now that I am at the end. Also I have read Payback's a Witch earlier this year! It's cute but honestly, with the conflict towards the end, I didn't like it and I felt Talia came off petulant. Bummer though because otherwise it was really good, it just gave me the ick a bit.

    • @ErinandElaina
      @ErinandElaina Месяц назад

      Omg that is wild that you read Sweetbitter while your own life was sort of parallel to the story!! I bet it was trippy haha. It’s been years since I was a server but I have a lot of fond memories, even fond memories of all the server drama haha.

    Some great books! I’m also planning to read The Familiar and Vampires of El Norte this autumn. I read God of the Woods last month and liked it so much that it made my favourites of 2024 list. Starling House was just ok to me, it felt a little YA to me. Slewfoot was a great eerie, colonial, feminist story. It felt more magical realism/historical fiction than horror but it was very witchy for sure. I recall it made it to my favourites list the year I read it. ✨ 🧹

    The Waterstones in Bradford is my local one! Thought I recognised it in the intro! It is my calm space. Except for the time a toddler was in there throwing a tantrum and RUINING THE VIBE! Apologies for all the ridiculous construction in Bradford. They are pedestrianising it

    I feel the same about covers. I strongly dislike the fluorescent pink uk cover for Weyward, I had to order the US cover off Amazon.. but, at least I know I have the desire to pick it up & read it..

    I think the British cover for The Maid is gorgeous…teal is my favourite color (I stuck the u in there as an homage to England, lol).

      LOL yeahh tbh I think you might be right about the UK cover. I’m reading the book now and the teal is striking!!
