      Yea man. I am so sick and tired of reading the same kind of books and I have just been reading similar fantasy books, that I need a different magic system with the "trials to get into a previledged place" trope so much. I will never get tired of it.

      One thing you should *never* feel guilty about buying an abundancy of is books. I think it's one of the most important things you can buy that's not technically a necessity.

    @maddywilliams263 4 года назад +5

    I personally love when booktubers begin reading with no prior knowledge of the plot or major themes of their books, because in the future when you post your reading vlogs and monthly wrap up videos you're able to give your honest opinions and reactions to what you've read!! you've helped me rediscover my love for "reading blind" as my dad says, which is when you pick up books simply because of the cover or recommendations from others and just go for it

    I would highly recommend a book called "Feminism Interrupted: Disrupting Power" by Lola Olufemi. It is kind of like a simple introductory book to radical feminism, and tries to push away from liberal white feminism. It's only 150 pages long, but still provides a good basis to understanding radical feminist thought, and to make your feminism more meaningful.
    (I was able to access it for free through JSTOR using my university log-in, otherwise I think you'd have to buy it, but it's quite inexpensive and would be good to support the author 😊)

    Yes!!!! Vintage copies of Stephen King, and horror in general, are some of my favorite things!! I feel the same about my copy like that of Pet Semetary!!

    I love your videos noelle. i love you. And i think you dont have to know about books before you do book hauls 🌸 It can be exciting that we gonna know about them when you do wrap up 💗💗
