*Emily trashes someone else's fave*
Me: HA YES TAKE THEM DOWN
*Emily trashes my fave*
Me: wow why would you come for me like this
I FELT that when she came to 1984, I had to pause the video because NO?? But it's an opinion, just an opinion, it can't harm you, right? Right?
Regarding the diversity... As a bisexual woman, I'm automatically put off by "OMG WHAT'S GREAT ABOUT THIS BOOK IS THAT THERE'S SOMEONE GAY IN THERE OMG YES" that so many booktubers feel the need to exclaim. A book shouldn't be put on a pedestal because there's a representation there, it should be put there if the writing's good, and if the characters feel real, and if it means something. Too many people praise the book only for having a diverse character, like that's the best thing since sliced bread. I'd rather remember, say, Apple, as a kind, loving and supportive character that happens to be gay, than Apple as a gay character who happens to be kind, loving and supportive. Feels better when your character's traits are, you know, actual traits. Do you like your lesbian friend because she's gay or because she's a nice person?
People are putting too much accent on diversity and I've rarely heard anybody mention something important about the book other than YEAY IT'S DIVERSE. Diversity has become just a marketing point. Oh look we have a black gay transgender autistic character read it it's great it's awesome. OK, what else is there? Well we have a black gay transgender autistic character! Um I don't care? Sure it's nice to have representation and not to read only about straight white Europeans, but please make it worthwhile, and let it be about actual people, not their whatever identity.
If you actually read all that: r/Fantasy has a huge list of LGBTQ+ characters, you are very welcome to check it out :D And since people frequently ask about books with characters of this and that background, recommendation threads are full of black, Asian, alien, anxious, etc. characters. It's not that there's no diversity. Books are diverse as fuck. It's just that their selling point is their actual plot.
AMEN!
Well said!
Perfectly said! I hate when the author goes out of the way to make sure every character is a different race, sexual orientation, no idea what gender they are etc etc but they don't have any personality traits. They're basically just colors at that point
You couldn't have said it better!!
Yes! It’s usually obvious when a wealthy white author is writing about ‘diverse’ character backgrounds or struggles they aren’t familiar with in their own lives. As someone from a very mixed background, I’d honestly rather they just write what they know than put out offensive garbage just to score points. It’s starting to feel like writers are in competition to pile as many identities as they can in books or films, and the end results are just cheap pandering.
I don’t think there is anything wrong with having a preference for physical books (I am definitely one of those people), but some people have disabilities that prevent them from holding up a physical book, vision problems that make the ability to adjust text size really appealing, etc. so it kind of irks me when people say something as extreme as ebooks are “garbage”. Same when people get snobbish about audiobooks.
Absolutely! I should have made it clearer (only did when I mentioned audiobooks later!).
Yes! I love ebooks because I can adjust the font size which makes it easier to read for my blind ass self
louder for the people in the back 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@@Ohsheadults my library has large print books and I think that's awesome. I think even for people with good vision it makes it easier to not accidentally skip lines
Girl, this is the best booktube channel ever.
Is that your unpopular opinion?
BookswithEmilyFox absolutely not unpopular lol. I think so many would agree that your channel is unique and interesting, it’s THE BEST.
Oh I was joking haha I should have made it clear!
Thank you so much, everyone's support has been amazing ❤️
Yyyaaaas
Only booktube channel I watch
John Green is 102% guilty of writing teenage characters that quote pretentious stuff and reel off elaborate soliloquies that real teens would never do.
Viscount Alex of the Horse People from Mars No real teenager except teenage John Green lol
Yes and i love it XD
8:30 i like Delilah Bard too but sometimes i think she tries to hard to be special... "omg why do girls wear dresses", "blablabla i'm delilah bard", "blablabla i'm not like other women"
like girl... we get it 😐
My (idk if it's unpopular) opinion is that a LOT of diverse books do exist it's just that most people haven't done enough research. And if they want to read diverse books they should search for diverse authors and stop demanding others to write diverse characters.
I agree with this, not just with books but with every form of media. People complain a lot about TV shows not being diverse enough, and I'm just like... suck it up and watch The Expanse, then. Most diverse show on TV and y'all are ignoring it because it's sci-fi. 🙄
As a middle aged person I resisted Harry Potter when it came out. Then one day a seller at my local bookstore insisted that I buy it (at that time there were three paperbacks out) actually he made me buy them all and told me to bring them all back if I don't like the Philosopher's Stone (taking back sold items are not a thing in my country) so I purchased them upon his word and I finished Philosopher's Stone the same day and fell instantly in love with the whole thing. So people who are resisting just do yourselves a favour and read them all.
My unpopular opinion would be that I don't like Wuthering Heights. I have tried to read it three times and couldn't come close to half of it before quitting.
I don't think e-books are cheaper either (except Kindle deals)
I agree about f/f books. That's in one truth across any fandoms as well. There's tons of m/m books - which is great - and everyone can name a minimum of 5 but f/f books? Not really. A lot of straight women will consume m/m content but not nearly as much of them will be down for supporting f/f.
Because a token gay bf is a great accessory and makes you look more accepting of lgbtq+ ☕
To be honest, I’m a straight woman and I have no interest in f/f (sorry!) so I think you’re on to something. People go for relatability in their ships most of the time.
I have to admit that I do read more m/m content and I feel like that is partially because I am attracted to boys so it’s easier to root for male same sex couples. With that being said I’m totally down to read more f/f stories I just can’t seem find any good ones.
I think it’s funny how the relatability thing can work bc I hear people say “as a straight woman I’m more into m/m because I like guys” but for me as a gay woman, my preferences are to m/m over m/f because even if there’s not a woman involved, I find the gay aspect of the romance to be relatable. (This isn’t a judgment call or anything, just an observation.)
I do think straight women should push themselves towards trying f/f stories a little more because like surely it can’t *all* depend on whether the characters can be attractive to you, right? There are so many other elements to the relationship and to the stories so I don’t really get it. (but again, to each their own and I can’t tell people what to like obvs, I just personally find it confusing)
baticeer Oh no for me personally it’s not all about the right gender. A bigger part of me liking romance is the chemistry between the characters. That’s the reason why I don’t read as much as f/f because I can’t seem to find any that I truly love. Like the last book I have read was about a female, bisexual main character who had a fling with a man in the beginning of the book and ended up with a girl. However, there was lack of chemistry in both relationships which is the reason I did not enjoy the read as much as the book I’m currently reading with a m/m relationship and waaaay more chemistry.
I think I have expressed my feeling towards the topic in a wrong way. Whilst I do read more m/m it’s not only about me finding a male love interest more relatable. The bigger factor is the lack of chemistry I have found in most f/f books I’ve read. But I am searching for more of them as I enjoy good written romance no matter the gender. I hope that makes more sense...
Unpopular opinion, i think no representation is better than bad representation
How is this unpopular?
I would rather someone not include a minority than completely trash it
Truth, HIMYM was boss
I agree. I'm bisexual and I've found that it's easier for me to reach a point of understanding with people I meet who have misconceptions about bisexuality if their confusion comes from lack of exposure rather than having a bunch of misinformed and ignorant ideas I have to teach them are wrong.
They both SUCK. The latter just sucks more.
And just to clarify, it’s fine for me if a particular book has no representation. But if the whole book market has minimal diversity, and the chance of me (an Asian girl) picking up a book at a bookstore and finding the protagonist to be Asian is 0.000000000001% (even though the Asian population in most Western countries is more than 1%), then that’s just plain old under-representation. I’m used to it but I hate it.
I could tell this was going to be awesome when 'the hat' made an appearance in the first 20 seconds! So here's one of my unpopular opinions... A book doesn't have to be five stars for me to enjoy it. Sometimes I just want popcorn and not a full course meal. I also think the star rating system is waaay tipped too high. If I give a book three stars, it's a decent book and one I'd probably recommend people read. Three is 'average', five is spectacular.
Absolutely! Also some 3 star books have fascinating premises but maybe the writing wasn't for me, etc.
3/4 star can make awesome recommendations too!
I enjoy my 3 star books. I just probably wouldn't reread them. 4 means it was very good. 5 blew me away (which is harder by the minute... I had 2 or 3 five star reads last year out of 80)
I don’t like audiobooks, because they are too easy for me to tune out, so I miss a lot of the story. I’ve tried listening at work (admittedly, not the best idea), on walks, on the treadmill at the gym, just hanging out at home, while I’m cleaning, and I can’t seem to find a way to stay involved with the story. I wish I did though, because they’re so convenient. I can get behind ebooks, though, and I’ve rediscovered my love of physical books by rediscovering my library the past few months.
thank god I'm not the only one struggling to stay focused when listening to audiobooks. I could be staring at a wall while listening and I'd still get distracted. I do love ebooks though, especially because that way I can have multiple books with me at all times and don't have to carry around one book that I might not want to read at a specific time.
I listen to Audio books when my Mental Health takes a nosedive as concentration leaves the room!! So I let someone else read to me like Dad used to when I was a child.
The best thing about The Raven Cycle, more than the story or the plot, is the friendship and relationship between the characters. I think it's just really beautiful, especially since I love character driven plots more
I feel like you wouldn't like John Green. I think he's a good writer but reading the fault in our stars I kept thinking to myself "no teenager talks like this!" it definitely annoyed me.
Kailey Rombola I think he is so overrated
That was my complaint too! I saw John Green say that he thought people were underestimating how smart teenagers are, which infuriated me because I feel like he was overestimating how philosophical teenagers are and how he couldn’t let ANY of the characters (besides one, but I don’t remember if it was the mom or the dad) have an average/normal vocabulary and poeticness of language or thoughtprocess. God it made me dislike the book, even though I liked everything else
That was my exact reaction! I liked the story, but I turned to me husband and said “this isn’t how people talk!” He is just bad at dialogue lol.
I really don't think she would like him. I'm not a fan 😬
I loved Turtles All The Way Down and hate The Fault In The Stars. Everyone has told me that if you love him, you hate Turtles but is you don't like him you love Turtles.
Yes! why not get the ebook with the physical book purchase like most movies nowadays
Icky V THATS WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING FOREVER!
MY ONE WISH!!! Like, I already bought the expensive version of the book, I don't want to also buy another version just so I don't have to carry around a heavy physical copy of said book
Cracked spines on old 80-90s paperbacks are so aesthetically pleasing
Best booktube channel ever! Mostly long videos + not afraid to have unpopular opinions, the two things I look for most with booktube channel
Just so you know, Tessa Gratton is a lesbian author (She mention her wife in her bio) and her book The Queens of Innis Lear as a great cast of diverse character and great political intrigue!
Preach about the gay women! I really struggle to find books in genres I like with lesbian characters
Into the drowning deep was fantastic imo and i loved all the characters. Im not sure the exact genre but its fantasy with a lot of science (which wasnt great but it didnt bother me that much) and horror/thriller maybe? Im not sure which but its meant to be scary.
“We can’t be friends anymore.” Yes, if someone tries to give me a book back with dog eared pages, spins crease, torn cover or anything like that, I tell them to just keep it! They will never borrow a book from me again. 😂
Heck if it's one of my fav books they better get me a new one :P
I love Hermione and Ron together😐 sometimes i feel like it's an unpopular opinion though😂
Agreed.
I love them too.
I am LOVING these reaction videos, and the best part is for sure the facial reactions! I can't wait to see more of this
Why learn English properly when you can just make a face, right?
Tbh in my own experience I was more literally educated in middle school than I'm now 12 years later xD Like I would talk about poetry and classics with my school friends and now we're all struggling xD
Aleksandra EXACTLY. Back then we wanted to change the world. We talked through the night about big things and phylosophical questions and recited poems... and now at 11pm I'm like "just stfu and let me sleep" lol
400-500 page books aren't big books. 800/900/1000 are big books! But they never intimidate me, I get excited.😍
Hate-read Twilight as a teen, was secretly Team Jacob 🙈 anyone else?
I was team Jacob just because he was more of a healthy relationship
I absolutely love The Raven Cycle, but I don’t think you’d enjoy it. It’s more about the characters than anything else, with weak villains and it’s written in a magical realism way.
I agree. It's heavily reliant on magical realism and character development.
Steelheart was the first book I read by Brandon Sanderson, and I really liked it. If it's his worst book I really need to get on reading his other work.
Yeah, the Reckoners series was my first I read or listened to by him and it's still my favorite. I like the Mistborn trilogy (I'm on the third book now), The Rithmatist was good, and Elantris was okay, but I really like the Reckoners trilogy.
The first 10 seconds of this video destroyed me harder than the end of Mistborn.
Aahaahahahah
Oh these mistborn opinions are killing me since I loved Vin and Elend 😂
I did too! I think the way they are perceived (whether you see it as a positive or negative) was intentional.
Random fact: did you know that „Elend“ is a german noun that means „misery“? As a native german speaker, I was waiting for the plot twist with his character until the end 😂
Oh my heart💔
Also I want to respond to the people who think people mentioning that diversity shoudn't be the first thing talked about in a review. I get where you're coming from but people mentioning the diversity in a book is pretty important to the people being represented in that book. If someone tells me about a cute summer ya contemporary romance, I'll probably skip it. But if they tell me it's a WLW ya contemporary romance, I will for sure be picking that up asap. Rep matters and I want to hear about it, as do many others who aren't as represented as some of you may be.
I didn’t like the book thief, feels good to get that off my chest! 😬😬😬
I have no interest or intention to ever read the book theif😬
Started it but couldn‘t go on because the German parts were just so off. The language read like somebody tried really hard to make it sound like an old fashioned German dialect but used an online translator to achieve that 😅
@@viennabooks741 well im currently reading it in german and the language fits, sooooo im sorry english readers hahahah
That's one of the few books in my DNF pile 😅 I just couldn't...
This video and Reacting to Negative Reviews of my Favourite Books were both really fun to watch :) One of my favourite and most watched channels
Annotating spine breakers where are you? 🖐🏻
Hiding in shame hopefully...
@@BookswithEmilyFox "There are three kinds of book owners. The first has all the standard sets and best-sellers-unread, untouched. (This deluded individual owns wood-pulp and ink, not books.) The second has a great many books-a few of them read through, most of them dipped into, but all of them as clean and shiny as the day they were bought. (This person would probably like to make books his own, but is restrained by a false respect for their physical appearance.) The third has a few books or many-every one of them dog-eared and dilapidated, shaken and loosened by continual use, marked and scribbled in from front to back. (This man owns books.)"

"Don't harm your books."
- Emily Fox
It's not harm, it's a sign of appreciation! But I respect your opinion and I still like your videos 😄
For a paperback for class? Sure. A hard cover or a nice paperback I want to keep? NO.
You drinking your tea is SUCH a mood. I wish it were a gif.
One thing I love about my Kindle reader is I can control the size of the font. Unless I have really good lighting, I have a hard time reading physical books, because of my failing vision. About audiobooks, I have found that some books that I have read and enjoyed that I had to read the audio version.
I love you so much 😭😭 keep making this type of videos!💕
Dude I can see “School for Good and Evil” in the corner and that makes me so happy!! That was like the book that got me into reading in middle school! ❤️
My unpopular opinion: I utterly love any part of the Shadowhunter books-TMI, TID, TDA--give me all the series. All of them.
And that Jane Austen hater can just gtfo :D. I love her books, and they are some of the easiest classics to get into and love.
What I find amazing about ebook is that I can highlight certain passages, add notes and comments without feeling guilty about ruining my book. I would never highlight or write in one of my physical books (I just use a lot of post-it notes or bookmark), but I do think it adds to the experience.
I started getting into audiobooks thanks to you, I live in a big city and struggle with traffic on a daily basis... it makes my transit times much more enjoyable to listen to them while I drive.
I’m with you on the physical books as a preference. I definitely go there first, but also have ebooks for taking with me for waiting times and audiobooks for driving or times you want to read but can’t.
Where did you get those post its you use for annotating, they’re so cute!
Also I like dog-earing books, I like being able to sort of leave my mark on them by dog-earing.
I also like decalled edges.
Emily be shading throne of glass every time she got the chance lmao
gosh I love these kind of videos especially seeing your reactions.😂
The jane austen one was painful. Coming from a girl who just binge-read (for the third time) three of her novels and the bbc version of p&p over the weekend 😂
Have you seen the Bollywood version? 😂
@@BookswithEmilyFox ohhh i'm missing that one! I'll be sure to fix that soon since i'm in the mood.
Have you seen the series lost in austen? So fun
BookswithEmilyFox the Bollywood one is awesome. All are awesome. As far as “they’re supposed to be funny” I would say P&P sure, but not really for many of the others.. Persuasion is my favorite, Northanger Abbey I hate with my whole heart... I have read the main 6 and a couple of the small stories.
Unpopular opinion: Strange the Dreamer is incredibly lacklustre and I don’t get the hype even though I’m on the hype train for most YA fantasy
Omg yes. Strange the Dreamer is SO boring
OMG you read my unpopular opinion!!! mayor fangirling moment right now!! love you Emily!
When I was growing up, there wasn’t a lot of YA books. You read Nancy Drew and a few others and then you were in adult books. I appreciate that there are books being written for teens and even more “chapter books” written for younger children. This was seriously lacking before the eighties.
Also I have a lot of books but I also have a kindle. Since I am now retired, I travel more. I find it so much easier to travel with a kindle. I have tried using a phone but it is too small. A kindle actually feels more like a book.
Off-topic but have you read any Terry Pratchett book? I spy the first three on your shelf. :)
I LOVR CRACKING THE SPINES TOOOO it makes me feel good tbh when I see cracked spines on my shelf like look bitch I read THIS
I'm interested to hear what you think of Good Omens; I'm currently halfway through it and I can't tell whether I like it or not. I haven't DNFed it and I do want to keep reading it, but I feel like the story is all over the place and very slow.
Have you read the rain wild chronicles by robin hobb? I'm finishing the last book and I really like it! I'm not really sure if I should recommend it to you, because it's definitely more of a character driven series rather than a series with epic dragon battles or whatever, which is not something you usually enjoy, and also since there's a lot of POVs you might not like all of them and that can be frustrating. However, if you find the series for a good price I would recommend it😆
It may be trash but I love reading Cassandra Clare books, especially because of the diversity. I think magnus bane is one of the most realistic bisexual characters I've read especially in the spin offs.
You've skipped mine. *cries in czech*
But I'd love to watch a video about your unpopular opinions
My friend only has ebooks and audiobooks. The reason is she thinks having a lot of physical books on a bookshelf looks cluttered and messy, and she would rather spend the $30 on something else. I’m fine with both everyone has their preferences.
Love these kind of videos, grouchy Emily is my favorite Emily 😃
It's so funny because when I am like that in beauty videos I get so much shit lol
That's why I love you guys more!
@@BookswithEmilyFox I love your beauty channel too! I say if they don't like grouchy Emily they can leave so the rest of us can keep enjoying it! 😃
26:23 There was a time when I wanted to preserve my books as undamaged as possible. If today I would lose all those books in a fire, it wouldn't matter to me, but IF I LOSE a book I annotated I'd feel so empty inside.
I will definitely skip the boring parts during my first read if the book is longer haha. Also as a black female I'd rather read a book about nothing but straight white men then a book that presents diversity in an unnatural way.
I loved the Twilight series - especially Breaking Dawn. Must have read it at least 12-13 times. Tbh still like the last book for the nostalgia.
Omg I am obsessed with your shirt o.O
I didn't read the twilight books and only watched 2 movies but still have a huge pile of twilight posters and a pretty impressive magazine collection. I don't know what to do with myself🙃👍
Aaaaaaaand this is now one of my all-time favorite videos. Bravo.
I had to drag myself through The Raven Boys so I really don't get the hype but I'd be interested to know what you think of the rest of the series. As of now I'm glad I controlled myself and only bought the first book for once lol
Record of a Spaceborn Few not being put back right is triggering my OCD so bad 🤣🤣
I loved this video! You are by far my favorite BookTuber.
have you read and i darken by kiersten white?? i feel like you might like the main female character in it!
you've really upped your thumbnail game lately and i'm here for it
It's a bit of a shit show and I'm enjoying it 😂
I feel like if you did finish The Raven Cycle you would like it, I tend to share a lot of your opinions on books and I'm on the third one right now and loving it
Would be so cool if you did some book tag videos!
I don’t think you’d like The Name of The Wind. But hoping you’ll read it soon! Agree with the diversity thing. If it’s the only thing that is being emphasized about a book, it’s probably not a good book. I like diversity in books but it’s not my main criteria? I still prefer reading a good story in general.
Which Brandon Sanderson book was mentioned at 5:50 ? I couldn’t hear the name properly 🙈
Steeheart
Your facial expression when you said "aTmOsPheRic fEeLiNg" is the best description of my feelings on the Night Circus.
Funfact: A friend of mine and the boy she somewhat dated where both kinda into Lolita, so such shit really happens somehow 😂
I read Red Sister based on your recommendation loved it! Have just finished Grey Sister it was great too.
I didn't read Harry Potter when it first came out. I was in High School, was reading adult fantasy books, and wasn't interested in reading a children's book series, even if it was getting great reviews. I didn't read it until college, when it was assigned reading for a Literature course I was taking, and I loved them. I felt bad that I had snubbed them years earlier. They aren't perfect, but they are adorable, imo.
Have you read Red Rising?
where are you from? just found this channel, I think I hear an accent but I don't know which
Great video! :) I really enjoyed it ^^
I so agree with you about the representation of gay cis men. It's like people think that that's enough for lgbtq representation. Where are the lesbians? The bisexuals? The trans people?
Can you explain me 10:49 , please? I've listened to it 4 times, but I can't understand what that person meant." To me... Along "
"To me if that's the first thing you mentioned the book isn't good enough to stand on its story alone'
@@BookswithEmilyFox Oh, thank you♥
I didn't tlike the ocean at the end of the lane, but I loved the the graveyard book and Norse mythology.
the ocean at the end of the lane by neil gaiman is my favorite book. I love the psychological aspect of it.
I love your shirt!!!! 😍😍😍 I want it
Looks like one of my cats, Nene Gordón. His name means fat boy in Spanish 😁
I feel like our reading tastes are opposites, because I LOVE magical realism but I can't stand sci-fi. I still love you and your channel tho! ;)
The Name of the Wind and Mistborn are my favorites. 😂 To be fair with TNotW, it did take him 15 years to write the first book. I have a feeling though that the third book will (hopefully) be released around the movie and/or TV adaptations. 🤞
I agree! The Name of the Wind is my favorite book of all time. Even if the third book will never be released, I don't regeret reading it. I would rather live with the pain of waiting forever, than not know this beautiful world. For now I will continue re-reading it over and over again, coming up with theories and making animations based on the series...
Yeah girl! This made me pump my fist so many times lol! Is it an unpopular opinion that I felt like Pierce Brown’s book “Red Rising” was a bit formulaic?
I also crack my books, it really helps with holding the heavier books and I can see how far I am in a book. I also don't use dog ears... I like to see that I use my books, I don't like them tidy and I always lose my bookmarks. Other topic, can someone recommend me booktubers who don't only read YA books? I rarely read them but I only find videos about them.
The one thing that hurt the most was '' I hate The Poppy War '' that was my favorite book of last year by far and the sequel is my only anticipated release of this year so I was shocked 😲
I used to be a physical book purist, until I got my first Kindle several years ago. I’m on my second one and I prefer e books to physical now. It’s so easy to read in bed (no lamp needed), at work, while I’m eating etc. If I’m reading a series I can just download the next one right away if I want. And no needing to hunt in bookstores for a specific book I’m looking for. I can understand if people are trying to read on a phone app or tablet though. An actual Kindle is just as easy on the eyes as paper. Another great thing is I can read something trashy like Gabriel’s Inferno or historical romance and no one needs to know (not that I’m generally embarrassed to read them but the covers can be cringey)
I almost died one day because I let my sister in law borrow a book and she was giving it back and she said "You don't dog ear your pages do you?" I panicked and shook my head thinking this book was going to be ruined and she replied "Oh, that's what I though, so I used a bookmark!!" I was so relieved but also terrified.
YES! YES! YES! I feel that EXACT way. Gay cis men are more accepted than gay women cis or not.
You should definitely finish the Raven Cycle!! Can’t even describe how much love I have for the story and it’s characters
been low-key wondering if you're changing your channel into a meme one 😂 (00:26)
I looooove cracking spines it’s so pleasing to me. I like that you can see on my shelves which books I’ve read just by seeing the spines.
😨😨😨 Aaargh that hurts me!!! Mine are flat and pristine! I do read them but just can't do that!!
ive read name of the wind and im in the middle of wise mans fear rn and i love them so much but i know im setting myself up for pain once im finished ugh
Here’s my unpopular bookish opinion: I, a real live human girl have multiple times in my life “let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding”. When there’s a moment of suspense sometimes I subconsciously hold my breath and when there is resolve sometimes you sigh it out.
I don’t know I think there are waaaaay more annoying things authors do in books than that! Like writing common phrases wrong “for all intensive purposes” and “the car was a ride off” are my most recent catches in books. It makes me want to scream “who edited this?!?!?”
Please try and read Turtles all the way down by John Green, it's my favourite John Green book by far!!!
I was seriously just thinking which days you uploaded. clearly I missed your videos lol
Saturday is now the official day...
With a bonus video once in a while on Wednesday!
I had to reread the first 3 Eragon books because I was tired of not having completed the series. I finally did it.
did you read the 4?
