We are halfway through the year already!! Let us know what your best & most disappointing read has been so far in 2023!!
I am reading Carrie Soto right. So far I love it! Have y'all read "The Ex" By Freida Mcfadden. It was really good!!
All I can say is that I have started reading the full metal alchemist favourite by far and least favourite is the dreams in the witch house love you you both and your amazing and wonderful channel love your number one Aussie family friend John ❤❤
My favorite book…after over a year of Lauren recommending (lol) “the house in the cerulean sea”… I finally read it!!!! It was my favorite book of the year so far. It was so adorable and had me kicking my feet and giggling towards the end 🥹 Thank you for the rec!!!!💕
So glad you loved it!!! It’s such a heartfelt read, I can’t wait to read TJ Klune’s new one!
I am loving the Fable book club and our pick for this month. Fourth Wing is so good.
We had been trying to find copies all month but gave up 😭 going to have to start the ebook asap since we want to read it already!
I read it on fable then promptly bought it so i can re-read it! Doesn’t matter how long i have to wait bc i have the Fable copy
Can we just talk about yalls hair in this video. THE SHINE 😍
Omg thank you 😭🥹
Lauren every time you talk about Throne of Glass I want to read it! I loved ACOTAR so idk why I haven’t started it yet. Love your videos and energies as always!
I always forget to give a concise summary about the series 😭 its fantastic though let me know if you start it!!
I love watching your guys’s videos because I feel like you always provide good recommendations that I haven’t really heard of❤
Yay!! This is so good to hear 😭 thank you so much for watching!
I really need to find time to read again. I used to devour books as a teen and child. My TBR is shamefully over 300---which is all the books on my bookshelf. Life just gets in the way sometimes. Ya'll just keep adding to my wishlist LOL
We definitely understand, our tbr is constantly growing 😭
I’m currently reading fourth wing and I’m loving it I’m half way on the book. The book that made me cry is before the coffee gets cold I really enjoyed. I also purchased before the memory fates but have not read it yet. A book I really enjoyed recently was Love and other words. I thought i didn’t like romance but I loved this book ☕️💕📚
That’s great!! We love Christina Lauren books , so happy you loved that one! We are excited for Fourth Wing!
Yesssss start Abby Jimenez!! Her books are amazing!! Cute little rom coms!
The Dark Verse series is amazing, so desperate for the 6th book to come out. It's gonna be a surprise drop so keep an eye on KU in the second half of this year because it could drop at any moment
Its so good I want to read book 3 soon 😭
@@laurandareads The 3rd book is soooooo good, I gave it 5 stars definitely one of my new favs. It follows another couple and their story is just beautiful with how it all comes together, I think you will absolutely love it
Omg okay I cant wait I think they’re all on Kindle Unlimited so maybe I can read it this month 👀
@@laurandareads Yeah, they are all on there. With every book it just gets better and we keep finding out little things but when they are answered there's more questions. The build up to this last book is tense
I was having the same issue with Fourth Wing and was able to order it from B&N and it arrived yesterday, but no sprayed edges. I am so mad at myself that I didn't get this straight away!
😭 we really wanted copies with sprayed edges
I also had trouble getting through the last three addicted books, so I got an audible free trial and listened to them! Made it drag on less and made it more enjoyable :)
Currently reading the house across the lake. And Riley sager is just so so good
Love his writing!!! Hope you enjoy it!!
Vanessa Williams is the daughter of King Arthur everyone😂😂🖤
Must be 😭💀💀
I recently found your channel and I really like your contents. Keep making awesome videos.
Welcome to the channel! Thank you so much for watching! 💕
My favorite book this year was definitely fourth wing!!! Least favorite was probably the noght bookmobile which was just a picture book I picked up and didn’t like.
Omg Thats so great to hear we are excited to get started on it!
Just finished thrown of glass series with Kingdom of ash finished last night…. Soooo good!
So so good 😭 I won’t ever get over that series!
I have been slacking on my reading this year. Life has been life-ing. 😅 But my favorite read this year so far has been Scythe! And my least favorite read was Icebreaker. Not to say it was bad but it didn’t live up to the hype everyone put it on.
Felt the same about icebreaker!! Glad your favorite is Scythe 😭💕
My favorites book of the year so far is things we never got over. My least favourite is never never is fell short for me sadly.
Never never definitely fell short for me as well!! Glad you loved TWNGO!!
I'm almost done with The Ruthless Boys series and it has my heart. Trust me it's a great series!
Omg I can’t wait to start it!!! Do you like it better than the Zodiac Academy?
@@laurandareads I genuinely love both series however I have found that Ruthless Boys has caused me way less heartbreak than Zodiac Academy. Also just a warning that Ruthless Boys is a reverse harem.
I love reverse harem so im excited to start!! I actually like that it will be less heartbreak bc ZA is putting me THROUGH IT
@@laurandareads I know ZA has me in a chokehold. I experience all the emotions reading it.
I also need to get off my phone and stop watching tv so I can read more
Love your nails Lauren.
🖤
I'm currently readin Rock Paper Scissors by Alice Feeney. I decided to go ahead and read this one when I wasnt able to find our book club book this month. I loved Daisy Darker!
We weren’t able to find it either 😭 hope you love Rock Paper Scissors!!
I just love the vibes you both give off. 🌻Thanks for posting such fun and entertaining videos :)
Thank you so much for watching 🥹💕
omg no indigo ridge was a 5 star read for me 😭😭
So many people love it! Not sure why the romance missed the mark for us 😭
If you like mafia series, one I liked was called Sparrow by L.J. Shen
4:10 relatable, like he is cute and all but I am really not that interested in your story sir. I should read it though.
Damn, Darkonara sounds interesting. The Darkverse series is like a guilty pleasure for me though I have only read book 1 so far.
My new favorite debut author is def Lancali, would undoubtedly read her next book (I am so excited for it even though it will only come out in 2024).
Exactly how I feel about the second book too 😂 We will definitely have to check out Lancali!!
Biggest book disappointment hands down Daisy jones and the six
Oh no! What was your favorite so far?
Reread a fav the him series by sarina Bowen but a new favourite would be misfit by Elle Kennedy
What?! No Acotar spoilers! I haven’t started acomaf!
Lots of people love Tamlin! We were just always fans of Rhys, definitely personal preference! Let us know once you start ACOMAF!
