I am doing my own impromptu 24 hour readathon from 12 am to 11:59 pm on May 2nd (EST)! Feel free to join me for however long you want and post on Twitter/Instagram with #readbyzoeathon!
readbyzoe I really want to read "how to be a Bawse" Lilly was one of the first youtubers I ever subscribed to (way before discovering booktube) love you Zoe!
readbyzoe Definitely the Lord of Shadows (highly awaiting your review 😊) and the is the new Lanini Taylor because despite not liking A Daughter of Smoke and Bones, her writing is good and 2nd chances should be given 😂
on my TBR this month I have city of bones and paper towns :) and if i have more time after that I'll definitely start reading red queen OR harry potter and the goblet of fire
I really like your rating system! It is very different to the normal star rating and I think it helps represent your feelings better about the books. I might have to try it out. BTW your freckles are super cute!!
Yay it's always good to get out of a reading slump! Sometimes it's just so much effort to read, especially during school but when I finally do pick up a book, I'm like oh my gosh I've been missing out for so long I love reading 😍
I love that you're reading (and loving) the Raven Cycle!! It's my all time favorite series. Blue Lily Lily Blue was my favorite, can't wait to see your thoughts on it! Also I just devoured the first two Lara Jean books, I can't wait til my library gets the new one in
I need to read Queens of Geek! I feel like I would really enjoy it and I'm glad to hear that you did! I felt the same about The Raven Boys when you talked about your first read. Hearing you talk about your reread makes me want to give it a reread and see if I should continue the series!
Zoe if you ever feel like you want to read something crazy as the Hitchhicker's Guide you should try The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde. Madness and fun!
I read all five books of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and it was SO MUCH FUN! Zoe, you have to read the other books less you miss the experience! And the ending of the fifth book - it's so Douglas-Adamsy solved. Go read the second book.
I have 2 favorites of April: The Female of the Species by Mindy McGinnis & The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas. Highly recommend both! They discuss such important things and are written well. I am most excited for Six of Crows in May. Finally getting to it.
I have to admit I haven't read any of these, and have heard of only a few of them. Thank you so much for telling me about them! I've only just started making BookTube videos but having solid recommendations are a fab thing so that I don't waste time on a rubbish book! Thank you lovely xx
What a pretty purple desk!!! I love upcycles so so much. Queens of Geeks reminds me a little of Geekerella haha. Obviously not a lot like it haha. But I totally want to read that now. Hitchhikes is one of my favs. We have it in our 8 fast reads video because you fly through them ha.
I just picked up A Crown of Wishes from the Library, and I am hoping to get to it soon! I also love how you rate your books by percentages and not stars!
I really want to read the raven boys series but I still haven't gotten round to it yet, being that busy with school and everything but I really want to at some point!! I love you and your videos btw xxx
Really loving the percentage/letter grades. I feel like it's a much better gage of how you felt about the book. Also I'm a VERY HYPED for cray may, glad to see you back. :)
Your Monsters inc mug is AWESOME. Queens of Geek sounds really cute :) I just read Caspar Lee which is also about a youtuber and I was really impressed! It's a biography but really fun and also mentions so many serious things like Taurette, OCD, ADD and divorce. A really good read I'd recommend for any aspiring youtuber!
Whoa where did those adorable freckles come from?! I'm trying to finish my shadowhunter marathon before Lord of Shadows comes out and I'm in over my head!
My favourite books of last month was either Strange the Dreamer or Always and Forever, Lara Jean (I ordered it from amazon and it came super early), these books are so different it's hard to compare because I enjoyed them for totally different reasons. :)
My favorite book I read this month was Alex, Approximately! I loved it❤️❤️❤️ and most anticipated is probing a court of wings and ruin because I've had to wait forever for it!!
hehehe thank you! I naturally have freckles, but they have faded because of lack of sun + my foundation covers them, so I decided to give them a little help ;D
You're so positive person. Watching your videos is such a stress reliever. I really need to get into The Raven Cycle cause everyone seems to love it and I want to love it to, haha xD
Hi Zoe, Since you liked Queens of Geek so much, I would recommend reading Chris Colfer's new book, Stranger than Fan-Fiction. It's a really quick read and is very enjoyable. Hope you enjoy!
Hi Zoe :) I'm loving your hair; looks so cute! Queens of Geek sounds like a super fun read; adding it to my TBR. Last year, I tried to read The Raven Boys but for some reason I couldn't get into it. You sound so excited talking about it that I want to give it another shot haha. My favorite read of April was What We Saw; I recommend it!
I can completely relate to the book slump, I'm also 10 books behind on goodreads, but I read like 6 books in last month, sooo ... progress! XD Also, your freckles are super cute! My TBR for may consists of so many books, but I'm also aware that there's so much college-related things to do, before I can actually get to all of them. XD
There are 3 fools that I am going to read on may- 1 is Tarzan matheru's 3rd book. 1 is the 7th book in a series of been reading where there is magic and dragons and alternate dimensions. And I can't remember the 3rd book unfortunately but I pre ordered it and it should come in this week along with the book by Taryn Matheru book I pre ordered.
I'm halfway through Dawn Metcalf's Invincible and loving her worldbuilding. Not sure what I'll read next though you're making me want to try Maggie Stiefvater's series.
Hey, Zoë! In April my most anticipated book was Blacksouls, the sequel to Blackhearts, both by Nicole Castroman. I absolutely loved it! As for May, I'd say I am most looking forward to A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas. I had the worst book hangover I have ever had after reading A Court of Mist and Fury. Haha. However, the YA librarian didn't order it yet, and since I don't own the first two, I probably won't buy it...So yeah, I might not get to read it in May. I guess we'll see. Same with Avenged by Amy Tintera. Can't wait to see all your videos this month! I just recently stumbled upon you, and I love your uploads! :)
The Raven Boys series is so awesome! Really, is one of my favourite series ever ^^ I hope you love the next ones, because oh, boy, so much goodness * . * I'm actually hoping to reread it soon. My favourite book of april I think it was Queens of Geek, and the book I'm expecting to read the most in may is probably ACOWAR. Or The Dark Prophecy by Rick Riordan. Or Lord of Shadows. Damn may, all those great books are coming out and I can't wait !
I am doing my own impromptu 24 hour readathon from 12 am to 11:59 pm on May 2nd (EST)! Feel free to join me for however long you want and post on Twitter/Instagram with #readbyzoeathon!
I would like the Book on Laini Taylor, the Title is Strange. the Dreamer. 😃

I love your book rating system. It makes a lot more sense how much you like a book then the star rating.
I love your hair!!
YOUR FRECKLES LOOK ADORABLE
I really like your rating system! It is very different to the normal star rating and I think it helps represent your feelings better about the books. I might have to try it out. BTW your freckles are super cute!!
