My name is Christine Riccio! I write books! And other things. Thanks for being here! I love comedy and reading fantastic books. I make what I like to think are funny videos every Tuesday and other days of the week too about books and book related pop culture stuff! Hence the channel name polandbananasbooks. I also have a comedy channel if you're into that kind of thing winky face it's polandbananas20. I'D LOVE TO TALK ABOUT BOOKS WITH YOU. ALSO COMEDY. ALSO TV. ALSO MOVIES.
I've been binging watching a lot of your old videos recently for nostalgia. I watched your channel religiously when I was in high school. Even though our tastes are very different now, you're one of two booktubers that nurtured my love of reading and gave me comfort during a time when my only friends were books (don't miss ya sophomore year.) I'm sorry to hear about your relationship falling through, but I, a complete stranger, am very proud to see you accomplish your goals and get your books published. Maybe one day I'll sit my butt down and commit to my passion project too. Good luck with this third one! Much love to you!
thank you
I've been watching your videos since I was like 14 years old (back when Cassandra Clare was still finishing up mortal instruments / infernal devices and you made book talks each time), and I can't tell you how PROUD I am watching you now be a full fledge author on your 3rd book. I just wanted to drop you that comment, like I've seen you go from a normal book lover (just like little me) to an actual real legit wonderful author, like every reader's dream that rarely becomes true.
If you ever look back you should be SO proud. :)
Thank you so much ❤️
this series is currently my favorite thing omg
YAY!! LOLOL
Thanks for giving us a realistic view in to the writers world. No one realizes how hard it is to meet word counts. :)
Thanks for being here!! 🤗🖤
Those endings you include always make me want to watch the next part 😭😭
YAY IM SO GLAD THEYRE DOING THEIR JOB LOLOL thank you so much for watching!! ❤️🤗
Nothing feels more relatable to my experience as a writer than watching you wheeze- laughing (sobbing?) while writing with your face an inch from the notebook paper 😂 also it's really fascinating to watch the process of someone who overwrites their first drafts because i so chronically underwrite mine, so the more words you add the more I'm like HOW
Guuurrll, you’ve been serving a lot of videos these past few days and I am not complaining! 💙💙
Always so inspiring to see you work on your book. Cannot wait to read it. ☺️
💜💜 thank you so much!!! 🤗
this feels like an insight into my own current sprint to write my term paper and I love it. The caffeine high moments, the late nights, the jam sessions
I feel you in this video so much right now! 😂 slowly brainstorming an urban fantasy WIP and a high fantasy one too.
That last bit has to be my favourite look of yours so far - we have had crazy Christine, we have had spiraling Christine and now introducing the smudge look Christine! 🤣 I appreciate how real you are in these videos with your true love reflections - you got me determined to finally write the damn book that's been living in my head for over 5 years and I'm having similar thoughts. It's so hard writing about passionate true love when you feel like you've not experienced it! But we, Booklions (😝), keep persevering!
lolol /// YAY yes YOU GOT THIS! Get the book out of your head, it'll be the most fun, cathartic experience!!!
Your writing vlogs are my favorite things to watch! They motivate me to do all the thing!!
Yay! Thank you!!! So happy to hear that!! 🤗🤗
I used to watch your videos years ago in 2015z And then i went through college and all that. I just randomly thought about you. I am glad you are still here. Your personality is so comforting to me , like a tv show from my childhood😊
thank you so much 🤗🩷 that’s really sweet! thanks for being here!
I wonder if any rom-coms exist where the couple-to-be are more "cynical" about true love so they meet and they basically resist all the implications simply because they're looking for their "realistic match" or "convenient-for-my-career match" or something.
of for sure. ive read them. The Sun is also a Star is like that.
@@polandbananasBOOKS Figures. Nothing new under that also-a-Star.
fully drop everything I'm doing as soon as a writing video drops 🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️
🥹🤗💜💜💜💜
I just love these videos they give me so much happiness and energy you have no idea
thank you 🤗🤗🤗 comments like yours make me so happy. They’re why I stay up all hours to do these. Thank you for being here. 🥹❤️
Your videos bring me so much joy! I love how much you've been unloading lately!
That makes me so happy!!! Thank you for being here! 🤗💜
I am LIVING for these writing vlogs I love to see your progress and how you end up with a great book!
Yay thank you so much for being here!! 💜🤗
Thank you for being so honest in these videos, seeing them every Sunday makes me so much more motivated to carry on writing the next week! 💛
of course!!! YAYY!!! Hope your writing is going well!!!
This series is my favourite thing!!! All of your videos have really been brightening my days so much!! Also I totally understand just having to slap down everything in your head about a story so that you can fully see it enough to know what to cut away 😭😭
Thank you!!! ❤️🤗
I haven’t touched the RUclips app in like months but I’m so glad you’re doing another writing series! Can’t wait for the next book!
Thank you!!! 🤗
You go, Christine!
You vloging about writing, your struggles, and insecurities have been so inspirational! It's made me start writing again on my project
💛💛💛💛
yayy!!!! i'm so happy to hear that!! wooo!!! hope it's going well!!!
"Give yourself permission to suck" I need to remember that John Green quote when I'm wrting or doing art.
Christine. I think Katytastic, Kat would make a great guest on you and Natasha Podcast! It would be perfect! Next month is NaNoWriMo and when I think about NaNoWriMo, I think about Kat. When she's on your Podcast bring up Cooking with Kat and tell her the people want a new Cooking with Kat episode! :D
Yes! I think so too!! We’re definitely planning to have her on!! lol I’ll be sure to mention cooking with kat 😆🖤
Lol, I go to bed late a lot, writing. Don't worry, the final published copy will be worth the lack of sleep. And yes, I will be up late writing and send multiple texts to my Beta reader, and anxiously wait for her to text back, lol. Fortunately, she's a night owl, too, so sometimes she does text back. When we text during the day, we just talk it out, and it really helps! She really helped me with my first manuscript! And OMG Voxer? I used that years ago!
I love this series so much! And yay for writing friends to bounce ideas off!
thank you Becky!!!!
These are fun to watch! And I hope this book gonna be a huge success 🙌🏼
7:31 omg pita thins my favorite snack

These videos inspire me so much!! 💫 I relate so much to needing to give myself permission to suck. First drafts are so hard for me, but I looove going back through it and making it better!

Yay, thank you 🖤
“i’m just a girl who doesn’t like the crust of a sandwich” i’m eating a sandwich with no crust right now 💀 BUT ALSO HAPPY NANOWRIMO EVERYONE
Each video is getting more and more unhinged 😂😭 people are sleeping on this series, I am thoroughly invested.
LOLOL
You know you have watched Christine for too long when you start doing her special laugh XD
Lol
Totally read The Dead Romantics! 😱 Reflects your exact feelings!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve been wanting to read That!!!
LOVE THIS
THANK YOU 💜🤓
My boyfriend just left me and I've been facing rejection pour the past three years. So I feel you. It's hard to believe there's really someone for me out there.
I hope you're doing well. Praying for you😢
olivia is such a weirdo i love her sm
LOLOL
Oooo New writing video ❤❤
Yep yep 🤓❤️
The title reminded me of Beach Read by Emily Henry (you should totally read it if you havent yet!)
christine is truly in her active era rn :))
truly in my i never sleep era. XD
Love setting goals too. I find it very motivating. My current word goal is 100k, and I’m currently under 30k away from reaching it?!
Congrats to you on surpassing your word goals!! I totally get the denial-my WIP wasn’t planned to balloon so much but I’m just over 1/4th of the way through and I’ve already passed the 70k mark and am closing in on 100k 😂
This is the first book I’ve written where setting goals has absolutely been the most helpful thing! Thank you and Oh my gosh! Congratulations on all your progress 🎊🎉🎊🤓 that’s amazing! 🖤🖤
@@polandbananasBOOKS Awww thank you, Christine!!!
"I think it went well but who knows."
Literally me as a writer.
