Your videos are always so cozy and so inspiring. Thank you!
And it's always gratifying to see the stickers and other pieces from penpal letters. This time there were stickers from my own letter on the double page about books by Sarah J. Maas and it was wow! unexpected and pleasant. 😊
Wish you Happy New Year! 🎄 More inspiration, energy, good books and followers to your channel in coming 2024! ❤
🌲Eg blir så motivert til å lese meir av å sjå desse videoane dine 🤩🤩 Eg gledar meg skikkelig til å komme i gang med A court of silver flames (Graphic Audio) har venta lenge på at den skal komme no 😅
Skikkelig nydelige spreads som alltid! 😍🎀💖 Og Godt nyttår til deg 🎉
I agree Iron Flame wasn’t as good as Fourth Wing but idk I felt all the criticisms about Violet and how dumb she is and how quickly she fell in love with Xaden without actually KNOWING him is pretty realistic.
Maybe my friends and I are too delusional but the way Violet was behaving with Xaden felt realistic for her age (it was still annoying but girlies can be annoying and that’s okay)
This is an interesting point! I think that yes, falling in love quickly is realistic, especially falling in love with the idea of someone, which is kind of what I feel she did. I’m not really criticizing how realistic her behavior is, but rather how her character development seems to go backwards from Fourth Wing to Iron Flame🫣 I feel like she was a lot more resourceful and clever and reflected in the first book, and in the second book she’s more whiny, complains a lot, fights with everyone, and does all the things she’s upset at others for doing to her😅 I have also been 20, so I know her behavior is perhaps not unrealistic, but it sure is annoying and a little bit disappointing for me to read😂
I have the opinions on books, was it a good story? If so, the literary qualities aren’t as important to me. The bad reviews stopped me from reading Fourth Wing at first. A co worker convinced me to finally pick it up. I loved it!! I didn’t love Iron Flame. It was a little all over the place for me, and Violet was too whiney. 🌲
Thank you for the beautiful video ❤🌲
Yeah iron flame was a bit slow in the middle for sure. I like how she writes her endings, but I totally agree with you on everything you said!
Thanks Hedda for showing us this beautiful spread. I really enjoyed listening to your opinions about the books. I also re-read books and being much older than you, have read my favourites at least 20 times over the years. This year is my first time keeping track of what I read, it will be interesting. So far I have read (or listened to) 7 books and they are all re-reads, even though my TBR list is long. I call it comfort reading. Enjoy what you are reading now, can’t wait to hear about it.😊
I completely agree with you on the Empyrean series! I looooved Fourth Wing and flew through it and I've been stuck at about a third of the way into Iron Flame having a hard time getting into it. Hopefully I can just power through and finish it before January! Love your reading journal setups as always 😊
This is the perfect cozy video to watch from my hostel room while I wait for a huge storm to pass 😊
Beautiful spreads! 🌟✨️🌟 The Izobova girl stickers are fun! 👍
Wishing you a wonderful 2024! ⭐️

My favorite 2023 read out of 38 books is Firekeeper's Daughter by Angeline Boulley. 🌲 I haven't read Rebecca Yarrow's Fourth Wing yet. I've purchased the first two but I'm waiting until more of the series comes out. I hate waiting.
(Maybe your friend back in school had a disease of the connective tissue called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Amongst lots of other symptoms there is hypermobility of the joints). 🌲
Happy New Year! I evaluate my books on the same principles. If I enjoyed it, I consider it to be a good book. 🌲
Love it! What kind of tripod do you use to film your flip throughs? I’ve been struggling with putting my phone on the ledge of my desk hahah
New viewer here, so forgive me if this is a silly question, but I noticed the sticker book and was wondering if that was an empty book that you filled with loose stickers. If so, what a great way to get organized and where did you get it?
🌲🌲🌲love that pet tape you used for your Iron Flame spread! I have not read either book and all the hype kind of turns me off but if my hold comes through from the library I might read it.
Using this to get me through going back to work after vacation. Thanks for the comfy vibes
absolutely not related to the actual content of the video but i love your hair and makeup in the intro clip!!
The thing about reading a book for the 2nd time (in my case for the 3rd, 4th, 5th… even 10th time!!!) is that you pick up/out more detail, nuance, thoughts that you didn’t get the first time. I love re-reading my favourite authors. It’s cheaper too!!! You are an inspiration. Thank you for sharing. 🌹Rosie of Oz🇦🇺 & 🐶Omega the Cavalier🐶
Thank you for the beautiful videos this year. Looking forward to next years.
My favourite book of 2024 was The Shadow of the Gods by John Gwynne - it's a 3 POV adventure novel inspired by Norse Mythology. I loved everything about, especially the fact that it has a dragon in the story and can't wait to read the next books in the series. I love the character Orka.
I would love to know your opinion, Hedda, if you are interested in reading it.
🌲🌲Happy New Year!!! 🌲🌲
Your journal looks so beautiful, I love the way you've decorated the pages ❤❤
Beautiful! My favorite book from 2023 was Lessons in Chemistry. 🌲
I loved all your spreads in your reading reading journal this month! 🌲 The cover page was so simple and wintery and the Iron Flame spread had such a unique concept to it , so those were my favorites. My favorite book of 2023 was All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr and Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christie Leferty. I hope you have a happy new year by the way!
Hedda gorgeous as always! That pomegranate washi tape is so pretty!
I always look forward to your videos😍🌲
🌲beautiful spreads as always ❤❤❤
🌲 aww Hedda love these spreads as usual. ❤❤
The window washi is so pretty!!
Your work is mesmerizing!
🌲 beautiful spreads
🌲 Enjoyed to the last 🌲

I personally loved Fourth Wing and Iron Flame! The disease that Violet has is real, it’s called Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and Rebecca Yarros and all of her children have it.
Thank you for telling me the name of it! I find it so sad that so many people are bashing the books for having a physically small and “weak” main character when I always read it a real disability. I had no idea Yarros and her children has it, it makes a lot of sense that she would write a heroine who also deals with the same disease☺️

I love your Reading video not only for how good the journal looks but also for how you talk about the books you read. It happens that i don't agree with wether i likef or not a book but the way you explain It makes me "chill"... idk how to explain but we have a very similar way of reviewing books as in "i liked It and if someone didn't it doesn't matter" and vice versa, no judging...
It’s a wonderful thing to be able to appreciate other people’s differing opinions without feeling like we need to convince them to think the same as us❤️ I believe books are like any other art - subjective! Whether it’s good or bad is not just dependent on the technical writing skill of the author, but also what the books make us feel, and how we interpret the book and identify with characters and enjoy the story. So I really appreciate your comment, because I absolutely want people to feel at peace with my videos, and feel that my reviews are..hmm.. not pushy? Like I don’t have any desire to push my opinion on a book on someone else😅 I’m not reviewing books for the sake of telling people how to feel about them☺️ It makes me really happy that this is something you like about my videos!❤️
Iron flame was a bit of a let down after fourth wing, but I still really liked it. I find it interesting that you thought the main character was dumb but you enjoy ACOTAR. I realize I am absolutely in a minority, but I felt that Feyre suffered from that fate also. I felt that the supporting characters were what held up the series and maybe that’s what was missing a bit in Iron Flame. We were missing some good support characters. (Please don’t read this as being aggressive about ACOTAR. I still enjoyed parts of that series a lot and it’s why o gave Fourth wing a try which is my book of the year.)
I think that I felt that way about Iron Flame because in Fourth Wing, Violet seems very resourceful to me. She seemed smart and clever and driven, and despite being in a situation where she knew she was an underdog, she persevered and worked around her disadvantages. In Iron Flame she just complains and fight with Xaden, and I feel like the book reduced her character to someone less developed, if that makes sense😅 Feyre was also pretty dense in the beginning, I agree. But I think I’m a bit more forgiving towards her because she was thrown into an entirely new world, she had no education, and did her best despite of it, and had a lot of character development. I feel Violet was put back several steps in Iron Flame, and that made me a bit disappointed, because like I said I thought she was very different in Fourth Wing than in Iron Flame😅 I hope that explains why I felt like she was “dumb” in Iron Flame😆 I totally agree that Iron Flame is missing good support characters!! That’s a very good point I didn’t think about myself. It’s so much “lovers’ quarrel” and so little development of other characters than the main one.
@@mochibujoI completely understand and agree. She did take steps back where as Feyre did progress (albeit a bit slow for my liking) through the series. And I also agree, the lovers quarrel was very over done. Like we got one of those and that’s fine, but 75% of the book was WAY too much! I am hopeful that the third book will bring Violet back to the Fourth Wing and then grow her further!
🌲happy new year 🍀💖
Beautiful 🌲
Truly loved everything about this video! What language do you right in for each book? I'm not sure if I couldn't read properly if the language wasn't english 🌲
So glad you liked it!❤️ It’s Norwegian!☺️
Happy New Year.❤ Thank you for reminding me about the stained glass washi tape in the Lucky Bag! I'm doing a stained glass set up and had totally forgotten about it 😁🌲
Loved the spreads 🌲 Regarding Fourth Wing ... this is why I have not read it yet. I feel hesitant when reading a hyped book. However, I will be reading it next month. Hopefully I like it. 🤞🏽
I almost jumped when I saw Moonpost stickers! I have the same two stickersheets as you and many more from them, they're amazing. I don't think I've ever seen you use anything from small Russian stationery brands before 🥰
Woooo another video 🌲!! I was looking forward to it, your reading journal collages are my favourite
Great spreads 🌲 I bought Iron Flame but haven’t read it yet. It’s on my TBR list for next year.
Your November spreads are so very beautiful! You inspire me with every video. I love how you make it look so easy but really it is not! I love your content and have almost watch every one of your videos! I wish you a very Happy New Year! I am looking forward to following you in the New Year and seeing what other kinds of books you read. Oh! And even though Fourth Wing and Iron Flame are not my favorite genre I loved the Iron Flame spread. Sp pretty!!❤🌲
🌲🎄 Loving the spreads! The washi tape and stickers you use at the end from notebook therapy are so gorgeous 😍😍 Best wishes for 2024
Hi 👋 Loved the video & also the feedback you give regarding the books you have read. I started my first reading journal, and it’s for 2024, I have been very inspired especially since I don’t see myself as a reader, so I had the best time setting it up, and can’t wait to start as I have already started reading more.
🌲More beautiful spreads that inspire me to journal and read. Ahhh, bliss. ❤ But what I really want to do is see more of your pen/marker storage that we got a peek of in this video! I’ve got pen envy!! 😄❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love how you shout out and showcase products from small businesses! Happy new year. 🌲
🌲I liked Iron Flame but it was not as good as Fourth Wing. It did seem a bit rushed. Love the set up for the month. Can't wait to see what you read in December. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and have a great start to the new year.
🎄happy new year!
Happy new year!❤️❤️
Just beautiful! Happy New Year! 🌲
Oooh, the lettering in the Iron Flame title!
ohhhhh.. this is beautiful!!!
Woke up on my birthday to a new reading journal video - thanks Hedda!! 🌲 Loved these beautiful spreads and I think maybe you've convinced me to try the Throne of Glass series again (I gave up on book 3 years ago). Happy New Year!
Happy birthday Rose!!🥳🥳 I hope it’s a wonderful one!❤️ and yes you should give ToG another chance! I’d say it gets better and better - personally I’d say from book 4 and onwards it’s a much better story😅
🌲🌲❤
@mochibujo
I was wondering, do you ever go back and flip through you older bullet journals and reading journal spreads, just to see what you did back then, just for fun ?
They're all so pretty.
All the time!😅🥰 it’s very nostalgic for me🥺
🌲 Love your spreads!
