MOOD
Oh my good same but I’ll just take my sarcasm and go..
lol oml same
hahahah
Booktube is very dangerous for me! Almost everytime I watch a video a book or more a book gets added to my TBR or eventually a book I want to buy! 😂💕
FluffyFin127 same. 😂😂.
i have alot of wishlist now. last week i saw alot of Nancy drew collection. and i love nancy drew(i only have 1 though). so this is a problem now😂😂
My TBR is getting bigger :D
i know the feeling XD
Amen to that 📚😮📚
i dont even call my tbr a list anymore, its a book in itself
what does TBR stands for?
Dew, to be read
*cries over how much I want all these books*
Top YA standalone: The Book Thief. I can't explain how much love I this book. The range of emotions that it takes me through is like nothing else. The pain, loss, joy, fear, and hope. I felt everything.
Adult standalone: The Great Gatsby. One of the very few books I reread. I will always love Jay Gatsby, and I'm very glad school made me read this book.
YES YES YES The Book Thief is my favorite book ever!
@@anabanana8518 mine too😁
Anyone liking before even watching? Yup.
YOURE TOO KIND
Ezgi Damla Çalışkan So me! Every video is great, I don't even have to watch it to know
Always!
finally found a turkish who watches Emma!
Top standalone: the song of Achilles!!
Your eyes are popping out so much!! Green is totally your color!! :)
well my day just got 100x better
awh you are so sweet!!
The Song of Achilles is definitely my favorite standalone OF ALL TIME. It's so good I love it sooo much
I can't remember if you've read Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda or not, but it's my favorite standalone!
The Hate U Give is definitely on my list also.
I LOVE SIMON SO SO MUCH
OH YEAH. Now I remember you tweeting about when you read it. Oops. Still my fave, though!
Subbed. I can see that you enjoy what you're doing. It's contagious or something or maybe because I'm also a bookworm and I feel what you're feeling when you're talking about a book. You can definitely charmspeak anyone to read the book you're talking about. I even caught myself smiling. 😂❤️
awh thank you soso much!!
emmmabooks Now that I think about it, you're like Piper McLean from HOO series. At first I didn't think we would sync but eventually I started loving you. ♥
Yay! I love a good standalone (ready to take notes)😁
ahhahaha
Totally relate to FanGirl!! Everything you said was on point
YES THUG THUG THUG - I had no idea there was a spin off coming!!! GAH!!! Can't wait for the movie!
I loved Every Last Word! Such a great story!!
Night Film was my favourite book of 2016!!
I loved Made You Up! I thought it was so well done!
This Song Will Save Your Life is one of my favourites as well!!
YOU LISTED SO MANY OF MY FAVS YAS!!!!

Giacomo Reynaud 🙋🏼
All the bright places is my favorite stand alone ever it made me cry so much and i related to both characters violet and finch it was so beautiful and amazing 😭😍
Can I just say you recomended This Song Will Save Your Life to me and it changed me. I cannot thank you enough for it.
bruh!! u're glowing every time u talk about the books that u love ! thats awesome !
I love seeing you so excited and passionate about books, and you've inspired me to add several of these to my TBR! I really need to read more standalones.
Memoirs of an Imaginary Friend is one I have absolutely fallen in love with (and it made me cry so many times)!
I love how you talk about your favorite books! And your vibe is so cool. Thank you for what you contribute to this community.
thank you so much!!!
So happy to see someone else who loves This Song Will Save Your Life!! It's one of my favorite books of all time
Thank you so much for this list! Starting a series can be so intimidating which keeps me from starting to read anything at all. I will definitely be checking some of these if not all of these out!!
i love this kind of videos because you see booktubers get all excited and smiley with stars in their eyes while they talk about their favourite books. truly a pleasure to watch.
Omg I've read This Song Will Save Your Life such a long time ago and it was definitely a good book for me. Now I definitely need to reread it because I miss it so much and I definitely want to visit that story again! I'm so glad you loved it!!
I sooooo needed this! I’ve been looking for some solid stand alone books!
the only book i've read off this list is fangirl and i adore that book so much! definitely going to add the others to my tbr list because the way you talked about them with such enthusiasm, has made me definitely want to pick them up!
You get me so excited for reading❤📚
Your bookshelves are looking especially top notch today!! And I absolutely loved Night Film. Great video!
Really should be revising but I can't help myself !
Great video! Have even more standalones to add to my TBR! I am on such a contemporary kick and need more standalones so thank you so much for this video!
You are such an inspiration Emma!!! 💕
I love listening to your reviews :)
Every last word man.... the book had me in a corner for DAYS such a good book, y’all should read it❤️
Hey emma
So i read every book that u mentioned.
And u know wt!
I loved them all
And i m so thankful to you for introducing me to such amazing pieces of work !
Love !
Fangirl was such a beautiful experience for me. I felt so connected to the main character because we have soooo many similarities. I just loved every thing about that book.❤
Thank you so much for making this video and for sharing a bit more of your story with us! I've got a few of these on my TBR already but definitely excited to get more recommendations since stand-alone books seem to be so rare 🙁
A list of cages broke me, it was so intense and beautifully done!
Emma talking about mental health so openly is so inspiring to me!
i love the way you talk about things and how excited you are! you make me want to pick up books that i never would have thought i'd be interested in :)
YESS please do a Part 2!
I really like way you are soo passionate about these book , now im dying to read them
I love "Made you up"!!! I read the book because I found it on your channel and it was something different and new
yayayayay!! finallyyyy. now time to add these books to my ever-growing tbr pile 😭
my day gets so much better when you upload omg
I've said this before... your passion for books is what keeps me watching. I love how you talk about Books, it makes me want to get all of them even the ones I'm not interested in!
I read This Song Will Save Your Life because of you and I absolutely loved it!
My favorite stand alone is A Monster Calls. That tore out my heart and stomped on it.
You should totally make a favorite songs/artists/genres video!!
I love that when I went to amazon and added Made You Up to my wishlist, the other two recommendations were Every Last Word and Under Rose Tainted Skies.
I love your recommendations because I have struggled with mental health issues and reading was my companion too. It helps to get recs from people who have gone through a similar thing :D
i cannot explain to you how much i love this video. i watch it everytime i want to feel the feels of a good book
Ahh Emma how do you always know exactly what video I need to see omg!!
Thanks for the recommendations! Been looking for some new contemporary YA to read.
You're sooo good at eye makeup😍😍
I bought this song will save your life because of you and I loved it so much. Elise and I had so much in common and I'm so thankful that I had the experience to read the book (it is one of my all time favorites too). Did you read the Book Thief by Markus Zusak because that book changed my life, I read it months ago and I still think about it every day.
The book thief is such a beautiful book, I loveee it 🙌
This book will save your life is so good I read it when I was 13 and it's still one of my favourites
My Monday just got sooo much better!!!
Every time I see that you've uploaded a new video, no matter what it's about, I always get so happy. I love your videos so much and you're honestly my inspiration
My TBR just got bigger by 8 books XD. The only one I've read on here is Fangirl, and I honestly love that book so much. It was the first YA contemperary book I've ever read, and after reading multiple others it remains my favorite.
One of the things I love most about books is that they're anchors for people when they need it most. Just like you, some of my all time favorite standalones/series are my favorite because of how they helped me in high school and my experience with them ♥️
Under Rose Tainted Skies is my all time favorite standalone thank you so much for recommending it!
AHHH SO HAPPY YOU LOVED IT
Thank you for these tips! Great plots and books.
Loving how you talk about these book
so I'm new to this channel and DANG that is the most beautifully organized bookshelf I've ever seen
I just love your energy!
Bless your heart for giving links
Amazing list as usual Emma, really need to read the Night Film ASAP. One of my fav stand alones was Boys Don't Cry which dealt with being a teen father and it was amazing.
Besides books you're really and I mean really good with makeup guurrllll
uggghhhhh yes another 10+ minute emma video WHAT MORE DO I NEED
History is all you left me DESTROYED ME. I'm not over that book. I'm re-reading that book and crying all over again. It tugs at my heart in ways I just couldn't imagine. I'm about to start the Hate you give and hopefully I'll learn as many things as you did.
I just read Under Rose-Tainted Skies, and it's been an amazing journey. I too would put it on my list of all time favorite standalones. I love hearing you talk about it so passionately! I've been raving about it.
so happy you loved it!
I loved this video. I have to say my heart does loveeeeeeeeee a good stand alone. There was a period where stand alone were allll I read. I so need to read so many of these books... really can't wait to read history is all you left me, fan girl and this song will save your life
Emma, you're an amazing person and you are so inspirational ❤
pleaseeee can you do an updated bookshelf tour xx
YESSS PLEASE DO THIS (I know they take forever to make but it's definitely worth it!)
i'm planning on reorganizing my shelves in the coming months when i get a few more, my latest one is from november and truthfully, not much has changed hahah i will be doing one once i get new shelves though!
thankyou so much for replying!! and yessss im so excited, bookshelf tours are my favourite, especially the Cassandra Clare sections ahaha x
are you gonna reorganize live again? cause that was fun!
I love your passion for a list of cages!! Definitely going in my tbr!! :))
And my booktopia cart grows... but seriously thank you Emma for talking about mental health books, because they're no mentioned a lot. Also I love your makeup so much.
This is getting dangerous. My TBR list keeps getting bigger and bigger 😀💝 every single booktube videooo
I luv your bookshelf lights!!!!
thank you!!!!
You're more than welcome :)
I need to read so many books you mentioned! Especially The Hate U Give!
Great video Emma! ♥
Fangirl is definitely one of my all time favorite standalones! I read The Hate U Give last month and I loved it! I didn't know it was getting a spinoff sequel but I'm so excited for that! Hearing you talk about Every Last Word in a past video definitely motivated me to read it and I'm so glad I did because I really enjoyed it. I've heard fantastic things about Under Rose Tainted Sky and I need to read it. History Is All You Left Me is another favorite of mine! I'm so glad that we don't have to wait a full year for Adam's next book.
I read History because of you and it meant so much to me so THANK YOU EMMA!!! Also, I bought List of Cages because of you so sooon I will get to it!!
I just thought of filming a favorite standalones video then you posted this! perfect. Fangirl will always be a favorite because I have similar social anxiety and I just love that book!
YOU SHOULD DO IT
yes i think fangirl speaks to many of us
Wow, I really didn't get the fascination with Fangirl. But it's nice hearing you could relate to Cath
I LOVE EVERY LAST WORD & FANGIRL IS ON MY TBR LIST ❤️❤️
I've got like one week left of exams. My tbr list has reached over 40 and your channel is making me miss reading so much but I can't wait to read some of these books 😁
ive been looking at The hate u give in the window of the bookstore for weeks... i need it now 😄! new subscriber!
Me: *watches this video 2 years later*
Also me: *realizes my sister has all these books mentioned*
Me again: *SCREAMS*
I think I just added all of these to my To-Read shelf on GoodReads
I am definitely going to read Every Last Word, I have OCD and I would love to read a book where I can relate to the character in that way.
Ohhhh man... so many that sound so great!!! A List of Cages just got added to my Goodreads "want to read." :D
I adore The Hate U Give and Every Last Word; both such important books. I definitely want to read Fangirl, A List of Cages, Under Rose Tainted Skies, History is All You Left Me, Made You Up, and This Song Will Save Your Life! Loved this video!💗
I really like your videos because most booktube personas I've seen usually use the same books, but you use books I've never heard of most of the time. I really want to start my own channel because I have so many favorite YA novels that most people probably haven't heard of.
My TBR got extended and my day got better 100%
Every Last Word is one of my all time favourite books; I'm so happy you mentioned it.
My most recent one is The Duke of Bannerman Prep by Katie A Nelson. I just finished it a couple of days ago and I loved it!
I LOVE THIS SONG WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE! it was the first book that I got as a gift and it is the book I recommend to new readers always.
I was so distracted in this video because your makeup is absolutely gorgeous!
I'm pretty sure I added every book from this video to my "to read" shelf on goodreads wow
So I didn't know there was a community of book lovers on RUclips, I always felt the books in my collection were personal. I picked them specifically and hearing how Emma speaks of these books makes me feel like someone understands the power books can have and how they can really help someone. I've never been so happy to hit subscribe
so happy you've found the community :)
Do you have a makeup tutorial video? If not, could we get one? Gorgeous!!!
If you haven't yet you should read The Body Finder series! Its one of my favorite series and I dont think its that well known, but its amazing!
I have Made You Up sitting on my nightstand and you're making me want to pick it up! I just might do it and I'll let you know how much I love it 💛💚
