Caraval is one of my all time favorite books, it’s as if Stephanie Garber had combined my favorite things: Alice In Wonderland + The Greatest Showman + Coraline + Melanie Martinez 😔👌🏻
Hi Destiny! Just wanted to let you know the first author’s last name is pronounced “Himenez” love u and I hope you have a great day💞 *edit, I spelled something wrong
You have to read the like us series!!! The first 7 books are all AMAZING. The 8-10 books are not the best but definitely not as bad as everyone says they are. I still read them bc you have to read them to be able to read books 11-13 which are going to be the final ones and I think they are also going to be the best
@@whatsdesreading I KNOW😭😭😭I’m reading them on my phone bc it’s way cheaper and I think the covers are ugly anyway but I heard that when all the 13 books are released they are gonna design new covers and THAT is going to seriously hurt my bank account
Terms and Conditions is hands down the best one in that series so far!! I LOVED Declan and Iris soooo much!!! They are so freaking beautiful together!! You'll love it! I can't wait to hear your thoughts!!
Just finished the Shadow and Bone trilogy and I thought it was sooo good. It was my first fantasy series and I was worried about the world building and vocabulary so I listened to an audiobook as I read along with the first one and it helped so much! Once I heard most of the words and names, I just physically read the rest. Highly recommend 💕
1. Your hair is so freaking cute in this video. 2. The Temporary Roomie is a 2nd book in a companion series and it would be, in my opinion, worth it to read the first one before doing that one (I highly recommend them both). It’s called The Off-Limits Rule. I don’t know if you have access to Hoopla with your library, but the audiobook is on there. Then you just get some backstory on the characters and the couple form the first book are in it a lot.
Don’t worry to bad about 46 books on your physical TBR. If it helps you feel better I have over 100 almost 200. All I Ask looks gorgeous! Six of Crows is one of my favorites and I read them before Shadow and Bone, but I get wanting to read things chronologically. I’ve wanted to try Mariana Zapata for awhile. I love Fine Print series’s covers.
I’m learning to read more fantasy lately (still not my genre but I’m getting used to it a bit) and honestly Caraval is one of the best books I’ve ever read! If you want a book with great plot and insane twists at every corner this is it. The second book was also brilliant and I can’t wait to read the third. The first one was so unpredictable, where it led was not even a suggestion in the back of my mind. You should put it in your April or May tbr imo because I want to hear what you think!
Read “The Off Limits Rule” before “Temporary Roomie” bc it’s kinda like a duology!! (But could be read as a stand alone but there’s reoccurring characters)
You should absolutely read maybe in another life, it’s soo good and underrated ! Literally my favorite TJR book next to the seven husbands, it’s very easy to read as well
Since you were so excited about Dolly Parton writing a book, she actually did write a book with James Patterson called Run Rose Run and it is fantastic!!
THINGS WE NEVER GOT OVER BY LUCY SCORE 😍❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 Made it to one of my first fav books of 2022!! I’m soo excited for u to read it. Wish I can read it again for the first time. The vibes, romance, and characters in the book is 💯
Shadow and Bone was my very first fantasy series. I was also nervous about all of the different words and terms that would be in the series so I decided to watch the first episode of the Netflix show and that really helped me!! I was able to visualize those “different words” in my head while I was reading and it helped me understand the books more! I know there are fantasy series that don’t have TV shows or movies adaptions so I was lucky with Shadow and Bone😂
All I can say Destiny is that you have nothing to worry about as mine is coming up on 300 books 📚 for my tbr list love this video and your amazing channel please stay safe and enjoy your reading love your Australia fan John xx❤️❤️ every time I try and get it down it goes down then straight back up
Caraval is so good, I personally think it gets better when you read into the other books part of the series. I’ve also read wilder girls which wasn’t that bad but it wasn’t a favorite of mine. It was definitely interesting and it had a good story to it. The shadow and bone series was a great one, also one of those that just get better into the series. I hate to say it but I wasn’t a fan of Six of Crows. I just couldn’t get into it, I haven’t read Crooked Kingdom but I’ve heard it gets better in that one. I hope you enjoy all these books though
Ahhh i love your book videos!!! So excited!! You have convinced me to read the whole Addicted series!!! It just soooo many books to buy!!! I’m gonna slowly read them!
I love love love the Caraval series! So good! The first is my second fave and then the second is the BEST! I am so excited to hear your thoughts on everything on your cart! I am a new subscriber but we have about the same taste! Also, IT IS OKAY TO FEEL BURNT OUT! Take some time for yourself off of everything and just enjoy living! We will be here when you get back!
I just got Wilder Girls and a Good Girls Guide to Murder. When I read the back of Wilder Girls it made methink of Stranger Things mixed with The Walking Dead. So excited to start them both!
I watched Shadow and Bone on Netflix last year when I had COVID not knowing there was a book trilogy!! The words, I’m assuming, are Irish considering the author is Irish American. Try watching the Netflix series as you are reading the book to help follow along. There is a middle book after the 1st book of the trilogy that plays into the Netflix series a lot more for the plot. ❤️🔥Hope this helps and your experience is great 💗💗 Marlene
if it motivates you to read them (or even if it doesn’t lol) u should definitely do a reading vlog for shadow and bone/the six of crows duology. six of crows is SO worth it😭
I have read Once Upon A Broken Heart by Stephanie Garber which is a companion novel to the Caraval series..it's such a good easy to read fantasy romance..I think u should give OUABH a read you'll love it especially the chemistry between the main characters..💖 Also, The Worst Best Man put me into a reading slump but I hope you enjoy reading it...😅
I’m school i read most of wilder girls before the year ended i didn’t get to finish it but it was a good book from what i read! I can’t find it anywhere to read again though :(
for the first book the last name is Latin so it is pronounced hee-men-ezz !! hopefully that helps with saying it. also a new follower and love the videos!! ◡̈
