I don't like the third act breakup either, which sucks cause it feels like every single romance book has it!!!! But great vlog, im really loving the longer reading vlogs!! :)
it can get SO frustrating, especially when it’s over something really stupid. i’m glad you’re liking the longer vlogs!!🥰🫶🏻
PLEASE DO A FINISHING SERIES THAT I DIDNT LIKE THE FIRST ONE. That sounds sooo good!
IM DEFO GONNA DO IT
The 2014/2015 era was gold!! The year 2014 was the year I started reading more and watching booktube videos!!
exactly the same as me!! feel like booktube took off in 2014, was such a time hahaha
I have this thing where I always stop in the middle of a series and cant get it in me to finish it 🥹😩 especially hyped up series.. this video reminded me to finish mine 🙃🙃 and omg yes same for me, definitly love a duology more than a whole series!!
i’m the EXACT same
Yes, Rose has two books in Calloway sisters series, and Daisy also has two, and in the epilogue novel there are all six povs!
omg this has made me so excited !!!!
when your hair was behind your ears I was like oh she looks so pretty with her hair like that just as you said you didn’t look good 😂 (not that you aren’t always pretty I just thought it looked nice) and I’m more excited to start ricochet now thanks to your video
omg thank you tho😭😭 i never think it looks nice so it’s a nice boost to know you think it does!!
@@bookswithellen Ofc!! You’re welcome 🫶🏻
the sony wh-1000xm4’s? BECAUSE YESSS!!! they are the best headphones i have ever used. i will never go back to anything else
YES literally everyone is saying the same thing!!! i wanna get them now lol
I agree! I have them and use them at the gym, they are perfect! They have noise cancelling and ambient sound setting.
the last book in the dirty air series is the BEST
Aah I loved this video and I cannot wait for the fantasy reading vlog! And yes it would be so interesting to watch you read sequels to books you hated just to see if your opinion on them perhaps changes!
i think i’m gonna do it!! i think it’ll be entertaining if i don’t like them, but also fun if i end up actually enjoying them!
Yess exactly!
Ellen has blessed us with another video!🥰
🤭🥰
OG Booktube I must go and watch old vlogs! used to eat it up as much as I do now!
In regards to the old school booktube books, I remember them all haha. I'm 33 so I was on board with all the ya dystopian books post Hunger Games. Loved a lot of them then but not sure if they stand the test of time. It's fun to look back now.
part of me is tempted to go back and reread some just to see🫣 but i also don’t want to ruin them for myself!!
Omg I’m so hyped about the fantasy vlog! I’ve been reading Priory since September and I need motivation to read it- Nothing better than my fave booktuber to get me to pick it up again
i literally just finished it yesterday!! ended up really enjoying it🤭
i loooooove the sony headphones! they're incredible
literally everyone is saying the same thing!!! i think im gonna treat myself hahaha
Omg I just realized that your a F1 girlyy too. That just made me soo happy :) I read throtteld as well and didn't like it and I'm still unsure if I should continue with the series. (Video Idea: reading F1 romances for a week😉) Do you have any other F1 romance recommendations?
YESSS!!! i’m a lando and charles girlie🫡 i don’t have any other f1 books that i know of!! ive been keeping my eye out for some but moot seen any other than the dirty air series unfortunately
That's a great idea to read the sequels of the books you didn't like. That would be such a fun video to watch!
i’m defo gonna do it!! think it’ll be very entertaining all round hahaha
I use Beats but the studio ones which do cover your entire ear instead of just sitting on top of them. So worth it! The battery life is long, the noise cancellation is great and they’re comfy. I use mine at the gym all the time
ooooh okay, i’ll look into them!! had no idea they had different versions😅
@@bookswithellen yes!! I originally had the same ones you had but also didn’t like that didn’t have noise cancellation or fully cover my ear. I was also able to get mine on sale for around $150-175 USD a few years ago but I’ve seen sales on them since so definitely keep an eye out for any sales they may have either through the actual website or a retailer like target!
I have the sony WH-1000XM4 (headphones) and the WF-1000XM5 (in ears) and had the XM4 inears. Absolute love them. A house is being constructed next to my apartment and honestly the noise cancelling is so good that I can work from home without issues. And they are so comfy that I forget I wear them :) highly recommend them.
i swear every comment about these headphones had been a rave review hahah!! i have officially been convinced
Anna and the French Kiss!! Totally forgot that existed!!
literally same, when i saw that picture of it on twitter i was so shocked lmao
Ellen you are quickly becoming a favorite booktuber of mine🫶🩷 love love your videos. They’re soo asthetic and very calming and just overall give me all the reading vibes I want
I loved this! I really need to do this haha as I'm in the middle of so many series :')
honestly i didn’t clock how many i was in the middle of until i made my tracker and i was like OH NO
The skullcandy crusher evo are really good! Especially for the gym or just music/audio in general, great noise isolation. They also have some strong bass that you can adjust!
oohhh great, i’ll look into them!!
Yay so glad you posted today ❤
🤍🤍
~17:50 yup I remember all these books. It's crazy to look back on some of them lol I remember finishing Snow Like Ashes but only making it halfway through the 2nd book and never finishing it. I don't remember caring for it all that much. But I loved An Ember in the Ashes, tog, The Selection, etc.
i’m so glad someone else is in the same boat as me🤣 i think i read snow like ashes and also gave up on the second book too
Love the long reading vlog! Omg that trip down memory lane 😱 Anna and the French Kiss was one of my absolute favorites. I was OBSESSED. Almost want to reread it but I dont think i'm going to like it as much 😂 And the Selection I was also obsessed with. Think I read that series like 5 times 😍
i considered rereading some old faves but i just know they won’t hit the same🫣😭
The way I ran to the comments at the OG booktube books section. I have so many of those books!
I’m so happy you are reading the Addicted series!! It’s my favorite. ❤
i can’t wait to get to the rest of it!!🤍
I love that you also love the book besties. They are everything.
Would love to see more fantasy vlogs!!!
@@thefallybear there’s one coming this month!!🤭🤭
I really enjoyed Collided as well, loved Liam and Sophie’s dynamic ❤❤
I just finished Wrecked, and excited to start Redeemed because I’ve been waiting for Santiago’s story ❤
I also enjoyed ruthless vows just as much as I did divine rivals, and I typically do not do YA either.
i’m so excited to get to the rest of the dirt air series!! i think i’m gonna love redeemed
Connor and rose are my favourite couple in the series(although I bloody love them all so so much) but omg kiss the sky is their first book and ugh I just adore it ❤
everyone seems to love them which makes me SO excited to get to their story!!
I have the Sony XM 4’s and they are great. I work in a shop that sells some of the higher quality headphones and audiophiles who work in that area swear by them. I believe that the XM 5’s are marginally better but they don’t fold so that could be a deal breaker. The noise cancellation whilst obviously not total is a godsend on public transport. The only thing I can suggest is find a shop near you that you can try various headphones out, but for me, my vote, in case you hadn’t guest is the Skullcandy… ok it’s the XM 4’s
oooh yeah i want ones that fold!! i have very much been convinced, think im gonna get me some XM4’s!!
babe these 2014 reads!! the way i was obsessed with Anna and the French Kiss is not even funny 😭 i also loved The Selection back in the day but reread it last year and simply despised it, which is why i don't dare touch Shatter Me, it was life-altering for me back then (and i recognize the OG Throne of Glass cover, but thank god it got a make-over)
LITERALLY I LOVED THAT BOOK!! i reckon if i read it now i would most definitely not feel the same hahaha
im too scared to re read old faves in case i ruin them for myself😭
I have the Sony mx4’s and use them for the gym they are really good and the noise cancelling is so good. They also have ambiance settings so it takes in ur space and adapts the noise cancellation depending on that if that makes sense. So recommend them for sure
i’ve officially asked for them for my birthday!! have heard nothing but good things🤭
I do remember absolutely hating shatter me for some wierd reason when it came out because of that car scene and now, after reading more books from the series, I cannot imagine a world without Aaron Warner 😍. You look stunning btw ❤, I got exited when I saw u posted ❤❤
thank you so much!!
i highly recommend the sony xm4 headphones! so comfy and i love the connectivity and i love the tan colour. (watching this video with them on right now lol) the battery life lasts forever and theyre great
the tan colour is the one i want!! i am ordering them now🤣
I absolutely love your videos! Could you do more videos where you film you reading? And we can watch you read as well as check ins❤❤
I have the Sony mx4 noise cancelling headphones and they’re honestly one of the best purchases I have ever made. The sound quality is amazing and the noise cancelling capabilities are insane. The battery life is great and they’re so good for commuting. They come with airplane headphone jack adapters and so theyre perfect for long distance travel. I’ve flown to Australia twice with them (24 hour journey) and they’re so comfy and the battery didn’t die on them once. I sound like i’m getting paid lol but honestly they’re the best investment I have ever made you should defo get them :) also collided sounds fab! do you reckon I could read it without having read the first book in the series? :)
omg this comment is SO helpful, thank you!!! i feel like everyone i’ve spoken to has loved the mx4’s so i’m definitely being swayed in that direction. i reckon you could read collided without having read throttled, i think there are some minor spoilers but not much!
😊No girly u r not alone,i remember too ,the old cover of throne of glass,snow like ashes,anna and the French kiss ,the ogs, those were such nostalgic books back then,i was such a Wattpad girly😅😊
i’m glad people are relating hahahaha🤣
Another OG BookTube watcher here. I remember that TOG cover AND the OG cover of Shatter Me - it was hideous. Do you remember how popular TFIOS was? Or John Green in general? Then there was Daughter of Smoke & Bone, Ruby Red, Divergent, Vampire Academy. Idk, if we scrolled back far enough in polandbananasbooks, Katystastic, or JesseTheReader's channel history, we could probably remember them alllll.
omg yes TFIOS!!! ruby red completely slipped my mind but oh my god i remember that. feel like we watched the exact same things because i was a devout water of polandbananasbooks, katytastic, jesse the reader etc. 🤯
@@bookswithellen - 2014 BookTube
It’s funny because/c we’re about the same age, and I wasn’t on booktube until ~2021, but I read at least half of the OG books you mentioned when I was in middle/high school, lol
hahaha it’s cool how they extended out of booktube so that people who weren’t watching were still reading them!!
Kiss the sky and fuel the fire is Rose and Connor’s book
you should so do something like comparing UK vs US book covers
ohh yeah that could be so fun!!
I'm so glad these books were a success!! I saw Godkiller on kindle last week and picked it up when it was on sale, bloody bargain! So excited for it❤ love u Ellen, you're most welcome❤ go on gal, such a beautiful idea like the little library!! You're a queen lovely so I hope you gave anxiety the middle finger 🖕 😂
oooh i hope you love godkiller too!! future buddy read maybe??🤭🤍
@@bookswithellen oooh yes please! 😍🤭
no bc this is making me want to read so bad but I can't, I have mocks this week... maybe read for an hour
an hour can’t hurt🤭 good luck!
Yesss omg the Sony xm4s are THE BEST INVESTMENT I’d die without them
literally ordering them now i have officially been convinced🫡 hahaha
You will fly through Priory 😉Looking forward to the upcoming videos!
hehehe you know it!!
my husband has the sony xm4 and I use them and love them!!
literally ordering them as we speak🫡 hahaha
I was not on booktube in 2014-15 but it’s still awesome that it was most of these books in 2017-18 bc I came across it in the library. I did not know a lot of the books getting popular now like red rising were from back then tho?? Also I use Soundcore Q20 for noise cancelling headphones and they're really good and quite inexpensive. I'm not a headphones expert so I'm not really sure if they're top quality lol but I love them.
oooh i have some earbuds by soundcore and really love them, i’ll have a look into the headphones🫶🏻
By boyfriend LOVED godkiller, he’s preordered the second one!
omg i’m so glad it’s a good one!! literally not heard any reviews for it yet so that’s made me wanna pick it up asap!!
The Calloway sister series follows the sisters of lily so rose and Conner do get there book but Daisy gets her own books as well 😊
that makes me so excited !!
I’m also trying to wrap up all the series I’m in the middle of reading. Trying so hard to not to start a new series but it’s so hard!!
I KNOW i always end up staring new series without even realising im doing it🥲🥲
Peep the Lando Norris top in the background, love it 🧡
heheh papaya forever !!
I still have snow like ashes unread on my bookshelves😂
honestly it sat on my shelves for a good five years before i got rid🤣
The Letters of Enchantment is only a Duology .... so you are finished with Ruthless Vows
wooooo that’s what i wanted to hear!! hahaha
This vlog was sm fun❤️
🤍🤍
I‘m really trying to not get into too many series at once, especially fantasy, because you won‘t be able to remember the little details 🙃
yes omg it can get so overwhelming !!
trust me when i say the final book of the dirty air series is THE best 😭just out of curiosity, do you usually read on your kindle even if u have the physical book?
omg that’s made me so excited to finish the series😭😭 and if the book is on kindle unlimited then yes i’ll always read it on my kindle!! i am a lazy girlie so i just love the feel of only having to hold a kindle as opposed to a physical book lmao
i started watching booktube until 2017 but they we’re literally the same books
I have the same beats but mine are rose gold I love mine tho
just an idea, but a lfl unhaul/search is a fun video idea
can i ask what an lfl is🫣 not heard of it before !
@@bookswithellen sorry, it's the abbreviation for little free library! lol I figured you mentioned it in your video, you might know the shorthand for it. I've been bingeing people going to them and seeing what theirs have.
@@michelleschafer8882 hahaha that makes so much sense!!!🤣🤭i’ve actually seen a video of someone going around them and unhauling/hauling books and i loved it. so i’d defo like to do a similar video!!
@@bookswithellen Yay!! I'd love to see them and the area where you're searching. Doubtful I'll get to travel overseas anytime soon, so I need to see things when I can lol
💖
