you always come off as so genuine and passionate in your videos which I really appreciate. My absolute, absolute favorite contemporary of all time has to be Radio Silence by Alice Oseman, it's a beautiful quiet story about friendship, struggling with your future, allowing yourself to be uncertain, and making your own decisions and mistakes. I'm sure you would love it!
hi hannah this is a bit off topic BUT first of all you’re the first booktuber i ever watched and still remain my favorite 💓 part of that probably has to do that our reading tastes are practically same altough (until literally a few days ago i thought) minus the contemporary on my side bc i really just read fantasy, sf or hf. that being said - until a few days ago - when i after watching your video where you mentioned you recently fell in love with the ‚all the boys i’ve loved before‘ books watched the trailer 2 days ago and fell in love. i immediately started listening to book 1 on audio, finished it on the same day and was BLOWN AWAY. it really spoke to me and made me emotional besides being a fun story. i started book 2 that day and finished it yesterday and - well of course - started book 3 and at this very moment i’m a little over halfway through. these books already changed my life in a way and once again because of YOU. i’ve discovered so many wonderful books through your recommendations (most recent one ‚the night circus‘ and omg LOOOOVE) and i’m truly thankful. 🧡 you bring me so much joy with your videos and your recommendations never failed me. so now i’m going to watch this video and probably start getting into contemporary which is until now so out of character for me hahaha. so thank you 🧡🧡🧡
The Poet X was such a touching story. I appreciate the Afro-Latino representation and how it handles the issues of religion within the Latino community.
your video’s always make me so calm when i’m stressed or distracted. it feels so warm and cozy and this is just why i love books and reading. love from amsterdam xoxo
I have read Dear Martin and it was a phenomenal read. I have also read The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas, Tyler Johnson was Here by Jay Coles and every single one of these books made me cry due to the fact that there is still no equality in this world and I feel as an African American woman we as a people should stand up and use the voice that we have in order to stop police brutality, police shootings, and so much more. I just feel that this world has the potential of being amazing :)
Wintergirls is a long time favorite of mine. As soon as you held it up I got so excited because nobody ever talks about it! I read it for the first time about 5 years ago, and since then I have read it at least 7/8 more times because it is just that good. Glad to see that others really enjoy it as well. x
The astoniching color of after was fantastic . I read Eliza and her monsters this year and I agree! It's the best contemporary book ever. I related so much with Eliza.
Hi Hannah, I just finished reading The Astonishing Color of After. And I'm just blown away. It was so beautiful and it left me utterly speechless. I loved it just so, so much. Thank you for the wonderful recommendation :)
yesss literally dropped my math textbook as soon as i saw this video! Contemp books are some of my absolute favourite and i'm so gladddd you are liking contemporary books more now.
I’ve been dying to read Dear Martin after reading The Hate U Give because that was such a good book that I fell in love with and I feel like I’m going to fall in love with Dear Martin because I heard it’s almost the same
I just finished reading Dear Martin and it's my favorite book of all time. I've never cried while reading. I just wanted to know what you thought about it?
i've never felt so represented with your description (and your emotional journey) on to all the boys i've loved before! i had the same thoughts before and after i've read it! will totally read your other fave contemporary reads because of this, thank you hannah!
i’ve finally gotten out of my 2 year reading slump, so stumbling upon this video is a LIFESAVER. i have added almost all of them to my 2021 read list so thank you !!
Oh my God I just finished reading the To All The Boys I've Loved Before series and was looking for more contemporary books to read so this video came at the perfect time. I'm glad you liked the book too.
I think you should definitely check out Jenny Han’s Summer trilogy “The Summer I Turned Pretty,” “It’s Not Summer Without You,” and “We’ll Always Have Summer.” I absolutely adore these stories and I’ve love to re read it over and over again. Also for a darker tone from Jenny, I’d also suggest the Burn For Burn trilogy.
I felt like I was running out of good books to read, but then, out of nowhere your channel pops up in my recommendations and I’m so inspired omg, I’ve added so many new books to my reading lists, thanks 😊
I met Laurie Halse Anderson a few years ago at a writing festival in New Zealand and I can say she is such a sweet and funny lady. At the time I was going through my OCD and after her talk about Wintergirls and her other books I went and talked to her. She listened to me about my own issues and I still can't BELIEVE I haven't picked up any of her books yet. I guess now is the perfect time since that aspect of my life is over.
I read "Turtles All The Way Down" and I love it so much. The reason are because I'm have too OCD, like Aza, and i have too anxiety, so i'm felt so identify with her. P.S.: I love the video, you're the best.
i fell in love with the To All The Boys I've Loved Before movie and then moved on. but your endorsement of the book just gave me the incentive to power thru all the three books this past week. i loved them. thanks for pushing me to read them.
You're so beautiful ❤ Love your videos. I've had so many of these on my list! History is All You Left Me, Eliza and Her Monsters, and To All the Boys I've Loved Before were soooooo good in completely different ways ❤ I love fantasy but contemporary has this grounded sense that helps me out of slumps and often makes me cry.
Turtles, Eliza and Her Monsters, and The Poet X are definitely on my favorites list as well. They were just all so beautifully written in their own ways.
I first started watching your videos for book inspiration and the more videos I watch the more I relate to you. I also think you have a wonderful taste in books. I have read many of the ones you recommend and love them! So thank you for making your videos🤗
The Poet X is next on my TBR! Knowing it's written in verse makes me even more excited to read it. If you're looking for more books in verse, check out most of Ellen Hopkin's books! They're older, and collectively have every content warning I can think of, but I still love them.
Since you said you were into deeper contemporary books, I highly recommend Hatelist by Jennifer Brown. It’s so good and involves the topic of school shootings and the aftermath of someone related to the shooter. It’s amazing and discusses lost, hope for a better future, and forgiveness. I definitely recommend giving it a try.
I love To All The Boys I've Loved! I agree it makes you so happy you cant help but to love Laura Jean. The whole series is just adorable and I couldn't help to reminisce about high school and high school love.... I love those books
I loved To All the Boys I've Loved Before! I underestimated it at first, but was blown away once I started reading it. I loved the relationship she has with her sisters. I'm excited for the Netflix movie!
I can’t believe you just finished to all the boys I’ve loved before !!!! That series is amazing 😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️. I’ve read that entire series at least 3 times !!! This book is everything you want from a contemporary book and more !!! It got friendships, family, romance and so much more !!! 😭😭😭 ahhh I just love this book . Lara jean is just so relatable. She is just so funny and awkward. 😂🤭
Your suggestions are always spot on! For anyone who loves some of these books, I recommend Because You'll Never Meet Me by Leah Thomas and the sequel Nowhere Near You. The relationships between characters are absolutely fantastic, and they've become two of my all-time favorites, even as someone who is lukewarm about most comtempories.
I don't really read too many YA contemporaries, but I recently read Starfish by Akemi Dawn Bowman and it was fantastic. It was hard to read at times because of the subject matter, but it was a very good book.
Hannah, I don't know you, but I think that you are so beautiful, both inside and out. Whatching your videos really makes me happy! Thank you so much for the effort you put into them and for your enthusiasm, I know that they help so many people read more and share your passion for books! xxx♡
Literally just finished to all the boys i've loved before tonight ! And i too only picked it up FINALLY after all this time because it's becoming a movie. I honestly didn't think i would like it or would be interested in the story but i completely agree with you!!! I feel in love and now i'm dying to read the rest of the series pronto
I heard The astonishing color of after's audiobook and it became one of my favs too. I had so many feelings reading it... Completely loved it! Thanks for recommending it!!
My recommendation is All American boys by Jason Reynolds and Brendan Kiely. I also finished Eliza and her monsters book today and I love that book so much!
OMG!!! I was right!you’re Iranian You know the first time I watched one of your videos I was like wow she’s giving me so much Persian vibes like she’s got the purity and peace of a young Ariai girl 💁🏻♀️🇮🇷 I’m so glad that we have the same nationality!like you’re one of my favorite booktubers❤️
I read *Foolish Hearts* by Emma Mills recently and this book took me by surprise so much! I loved it and I want more people to read it so I can talk with people about it. It's so so so good!
I actually JUST picked up Love and Other Carnivorous Plants, I know that you won’t lead me astray so I’m even more excited to read it now that you’ve praised it!
I am not really a YA Contemporary books kinda person, but looking at those recs, I am diving into few, especially, The Astonishing Color of After 💛 My god!! I looove you and your videos, you inspire me soo much!! Love you girl 💛💛
Wintergirls is such a good read, probably my favorite Anderson book besides Speak. Hadn't heard of Down & Across but sounds interesting & added to the TBR. Countless by Karen Gregory & Paperweight by Meg Haston are other great contemps featuring ED issues. Paper Butterflies by Lisa Heathfield & The Last To Let Go by Amber Smith are also fantastic reads.
I'm currently reading To All The Boys I've Loved Before and I didn't expect to love it so much!!! 💕 I didn't bother to pick up the book before because it seemed really cheesy but I was really curious when I saw the trailer for the film adaptation and now I don't regret reading it. Anyway, this was a great video and btw I love your book faves/review videos. 💖✨
omg so many book recs!! i've only read three books on this list so i'm excited to get to the rest you mentioned. but like TURTLES ALL THE WAY DOWN !!!!!
I haven't really been much of a reader, but I am looking to turn that around. I feel as if I may be too late though, because I'm entering my second year of high school and everyone has read far more than me. I have been moving around a lot and therefore can't really bud in any library, and I'm not the wealthiest.. so buying all of the books I've dreamt of indulging in is out of the question. aGH! Anyways, thank you for the recommendations! I'mma hit the nearest library (when I can) and try out a few.
I TOTALLY agree on turtles all the way down 😍😍😍 it is my favorit book and you have to read holding up the universe and all the bright places they are just😍😍
I fell in love with The Poet X! Picked it up because of this video and the praises you heaped upon it! It’s one of my all time faves now! Continue to spread the book love! Lots of love, From India ❤️

To All the Boys I've Loved Before is one of my favorite series! I also absolutely loved Eliza and Her Monsters. I'm totally adding all the other books you mentioned to my TBR!
sheisuchalauren it is so good! definite content warnings for homophobia, suicidal thoughts, and depression, but it was exceptionally written. totally worth the tears.
i enjoyed history is all you left me more than they both die at the end i recommend it so so much but i started crying on like page 50 and didnt stop for the rest of the book
Shaun David Hutchinson's At the Edge of the Universe and We Are the Ants are two fantastic contemporaries. The main characters in both books are gay and struggling with some form of tragedy and trauma. There's also the added Hutchinson touch of magical realism but instead of magic, it's science
This video came just at the right time for me!! I was looking for some new books to read so thank you! ❤️❤️ Can’t wait to purchase and read down and across, it sounds so great🤗😁.
I’d just like to say I’m recently getting into booktube ( I did not know this wonderland existed) and you are by far my favorite booktuber 💜
I would also suggest: Hailey in Bookland, jessethereader, and readbyzoe.
Dixie Reads Books it’s like you read my mind I watch all those booktubers
Emmmasbooks is one of my favorites too!
@@dlynnemgirl8870 Merphy Napier is a good one too

you always come off as so genuine and passionate in your videos which I really appreciate. My absolute, absolute favorite contemporary of all time has to be Radio Silence by Alice Oseman, it's a beautiful quiet story about friendship, struggling with your future, allowing yourself to be uncertain, and making your own decisions and mistakes.

Yey! Thanks for this Hannah! *adds books to cart*
Summer time is contemporary time ❤️☀️
The fact that this video is 20 minutes long warms my heart 😍
All the books to get lost into💛
THEY BOTH DIE AT THE END BY ADAM SILVERA IS ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE BOOKS YOU HAVE TO READ IT
Kay Ravioli YES
YES AND IT'S GOING TO BE A SHOW NOW CAN YOU BELIEVE IT
i just bought it !
Omg! Yes❤
😭😭😭 HONESTLYYYY
"The Summer I Turned Pretty" is definitely for you if you liked "To All The Boys I've Loved Before", Jenny Han is such a genius !!!
Who do you like more Jere or Conrad
This video is a blessing. I have been in YA contemporary mood lately and you just added so many books on my reading list. Much Love!!! ❤️❤️
Rishika Dembani yayyy!
I definitely recommend Radio Silence if you are looking for a more emotional contemporary with a wonderful friendship dynamic.
I literally just bought The Poet X two days ago and now I feel more motivated to read it! Love your channel xx

also omg i love your shirt hahaha
I bought "Eliza and her monsters" after your recommendation. I loved it soo much! As a person, who writes, I found so many inspiring quotes 💕💕💕
The Poet X was such a touching story. I appreciate the Afro-Latino representation and how it handles the issues of religion within the Latino community.

Kahlia Flores IKR
Also loved The Boys I've Loved Before! Loved how much space the sisters got and how well thought-out the characters were, even the small ones.
I just bought To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before because of you!
Bente Boffin this makes my heart happy 💗

video actually starts at 1:26
Your bookcase is my dream room ♥️
YES LOVE WINTERGIRLS
I am in the mood for contemporary and I know I can always count on good recs from you!!! Thank you.
I agree with everything you said about Wintergirls. I just read it a few weeks ago and I was blown away!
i fell in love with the To All The Boys I've Loved Before movie and then moved on. but your endorsement of the book just gave me the incentive to power thru all the three books this past week. i loved them. thanks for pushing me to read them.

Your profile picture ❤❤❤
I had no knowledge or expectations going into The Poet X and was completely floored by it. I ate it up in a day!
Your suggestions are always spot on! For anyone who loves some of these books, I recommend Because You'll Never Meet Me by Leah Thomas and the sequel Nowhere Near You. The relationships between characters are absolutely fantastic, and they've become two of my all-time favorites, even as someone who is lukewarm about most comtempories.
I read Eliza and Her Monsters because of you and it's one of my all time favourites now. Thank you for that!!
I feel the exact same about To All The Boys I've Loved Before. I love that book SO MUCH
I always get so excited when you post!
Thxs so much for making this video I will definitely be reading the astonishing colour of after and turtles all the way down.
i’m 16 and turtles all the way down is the book that got me into reading bc i completely fell in love with it
I don't really read too many YA contemporaries, but I recently read Starfish by Akemi Dawn Bowman and it was fantastic. It was hard to read at times because of the subject matter, but it was a very good book.
I’ve been switching back and forth between this video and goodreads adding books to my wish list :)
Hannah, I don't know you, but I think that you are so beautiful, both inside and out. Whatching your videos really makes me happy! Thank you so much for the effort you put into them and for your enthusiasm, I know that they help so many people read more and share your passion for books!
xxx♡

Eliza and her monsters is on my nightstand... I'll get to it soon
I loved Eliza and her monsters!
I love down and across too! I didn’t know anyone else like it too!
Sydnee McConnell loved down and across one of the best books I read this year
Literally just finished to all the boys i've loved before tonight ! And i too only picked it up FINALLY after all this time because it's becoming a movie. I honestly didn't think i would like it or would be interested in the story but i completely agree with you!!! I feel in love and now i'm dying to read the rest of the series pronto
I love sad contemporaries! Thanks for the recommendations!
I heard The astonishing color of after's audiobook and it became one of my favs too. I had so many feelings reading it... Completely loved it! Thanks for recommending it!!
I was thinking about reading Turtles All The Way Down so thanks for the recommendation!
My recommendation is All American boys by Jason Reynolds and Brendan Kiely. I also finished Eliza and her monsters book today and I love that book so much!
OMG!!!
I was right!you’re Iranian
You know the first time I watched one of your videos I was like wow she’s giving me so much Persian vibes like she’s got the purity and peace of a young Ariai girl 💁🏻♀️🇮🇷
I’m so glad that we have the same nationality!like you’re one of my favorite booktubers❤️
I just started To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before because of you and I’m already addicted!
I read *Foolish Hearts* by Emma Mills recently and this book took me by surprise so much! I loved it and I want more people to read it so I can talk with people about it. It's so so so good!
I actually JUST picked up Love and Other Carnivorous Plants, I know that you won’t lead me astray so I’m even more excited to read it now that you’ve praised it!
I am not really a YA Contemporary books kinda person, but looking at those recs, I am diving into few, especially, The Astonishing Color of After 💛
My god!! I looove you and your videos, you inspire me soo much!! Love you girl 💛💛
Wintergirls is such a good read, probably my favorite Anderson book besides Speak. Hadn't heard of Down & Across but sounds interesting & added to the TBR. Countless by Karen Gregory & Paperweight by Meg Haston are other great contemps featuring ED issues. Paper Butterflies by Lisa Heathfield & The Last To Let Go by Amber Smith are also fantastic reads.
I'm currently reading To All The Boys I've Loved Before and I didn't expect to love it so much!!! 💕 I didn't bother to pick up the book before because it seemed really cheesy but I was really curious when I saw the trailer for the film adaptation and now I don't regret reading it.

Everything is just perfect with your videos. The books are incredibly interesting and you are such an amazing person❤️
omg so many book recs!! i've only read three books on this list so i'm excited to get to the rest you mentioned. but like TURTLES ALL THE WAY DOWN !!!!!
History Is All You Left Me and Dear Martin are a couple of my favorites too!
I need to read the other ones you mentioned that I haven't read yet!
I'm reading "The Astonishing Color of After" right now!
I love love love To All The Boys I've Loved Before!! I can't wait for the movie so freaking excited!!
I haven't really been much of a reader, but I am looking to turn that around. I feel as if I may be too late though, because I'm entering my second year of high school and everyone has read far more than me.

I TOTALLY agree on turtles all the way down 😍😍😍 it is my favorit book and you have to read holding up the universe and all the bright places they are just😍😍
I have the same edition of Wintergirls and it is absolutely my favorite book ever.
Awesome selection of books hun!!!.. tfs💞👍🏾 #happyreadings📚
If you haven’t read it, I highly recommend Ready To Fall by Marcella Pixley. It’s heartbreaking and funny and inspiring. I loved it!
I fell in love with The Poet X! Picked it up because of this video and the praises you heaped upon it! It’s one of my all time faves now! Continue to spread the book love!
Lots of love,
From India ❤️
To All the Boys I've Loved Before is one of my favorite series! I also absolutely loved Eliza and Her Monsters. I'm totally adding all the other books you mentioned to my TBR!
Too afraid to read History Is All You Left Me after reading They Both Die At The End. Still crying inside.
sheisuchalauren it is so good! definite content warnings for homophobia, suicidal thoughts, and depression, but it was exceptionally written. totally worth the tears.
I do love Adam Silvera's writing style and the emotion that went into They Both Die At The End so when I need a cry, I'll give it a go!
I've only read They Both Die At The End but yes, I've heard they are all tear fests
i enjoyed history is all you left me more than they both die at the end i recommend it so so much but i started crying on like page 50 and didnt stop for the rest of the book
I’m obsessed with your eye shadow 😍🙌🏻
I've personally never read any YA contemporary, but these recommendations sound great! Thanks for sharing your favs!
Shaun David Hutchinson's At the Edge of the Universe and We Are the Ants are two fantastic contemporaries. The main characters in both books are gay and struggling with some form of tragedy and trauma. There's also the added Hutchinson touch of magical realism but instead of magic, it's science
Turtles all the way down!!! U mentioned it and i took it off my shelf to read it again right now. Its just so good.😍❤❤
You should hear the audiobook of the Poet X, it’s narrated by the author and it makes the book even more better
Your bookshelf is actual goals. ♥️
This video came just at the right time for me!! I was looking for some new books to read so thank you! ❤️❤️
Can’t wait to purchase and read down and across, it sounds so great🤗😁.
i just finished eliza and her monsters and im ... OBSESSED
