I read Empire of the Vampire and absolutely loved it, devored it in a few days. Haven't read anything else by the author but I can't wait for the next installment of this to come out.
I bought three years ago PAX in French little did I know they had the English version, well thank a lot a will buy the second book. I will read them both!
I read Empire of the Vampire when I got it in my box, and honestly; all things considered, of Course, as well as Ignoring some of the authors less favourable acts. The books honestly pretty good! As well as far more inclusive than his latter works👁👄👁
girl i read pax when i was a lil kid and i SOBBED i was like 10 and that was the first book to ever make me cry. much nostalgia. thanks for reminding me that book exists lol!!
I was randomly going through my paperback books and decided to read the opening first page to The Night Circus; I maybe have devoured over 100 pages before I realized what I was doing😅
my ember in the ashes loving heart is dying at all the love it’s getting in these book boxes. have you read it? the whole series is so amazing it’s my ALL TIME FAV. i was tearing up at the ‘may death claim me first’ pin ugh
I found my book vault i got as a kid (winnie the pooh) when i was going through some stuff at my mom's, but i apparently lost the key so i have to try to pick the lock. I used to be obsesses with them
im personally not eager to read jay kristoff anymore but if u do have fun. i havent read any of his books so im just not a fan and after everything that happened i dont wanna be. imma need that tea pot and cup set tho lol. luv ya mel
Oh my goodness, so jealous of that Night Circus box! Oh that tea set! 🫖 So beautiful!💕🎪 It's on my pile of books to be read soon. Love your videos 🍂🎃👻🦇
I’m so excited for you to read The Night Circus, especially during winter which is perfect! Its one my favourite books of all time, such a magical read ✨✨ also .. 📦📦😂
📦 I've read The Night Circus (overhyped for me, I was mostly bored :( ), These Hollow Vows was really good - but I was SOOO MAD at the main character that I was screaming at her while reading (things like "girl, don't be so naive! don't trust____! ect... and the ending? Yup. I was MAD. haha), Empire of the Vampire? That book is a beast! One of the best I've read this year! And as for Defy the Night and Beasts of Prey - they still waiting on my shelf on my neverending tbr pile :D 📦
I'm really glad you brought up how controversial Jay Kristoff is. I feel like a lot of people who are excited for this book have just ignored it entirely, which I find disappointing. I don't care if people read his books, just be aware of and not afraid to address the harm he's caused.
@@kianadoescod6402 That's basically what I found as well. Doesn't seem very substantial evidence to me, to condemn him like this. I can only assume that there is more information that has been removed that we haven't seen, or this is a case of hearsay and everyone is going along with it.
peakstudentmedia.com/2021/05/16/problematic-authors-can-you-separate-the-art-from-the-artist/ most of it was revealed on twitter but there's a few articles you can find online besides this one!
I think if you want to read Empire of the Vampire then you should do it. You don't have to talk about it or promote it on your channel if it's something you aren't comfortable with! But if it really interests you and you already got a copy, then why not 😊😇
After the whole Kristoff drama and because I’m christian and considered disrespectful the fact that he used one of God’s name to represent a character that clearly went against all God stands for, I decided to not support this author anymore and therefore I’m not reading the book. And I used to be a HUGE fan of his Nevernight series. Not anymore unfortunately.
i had no idea about this part of his drama! thanks for bringing this up💖 there has been so much happening around his works that it's a bit overwhelming to keep a track of!
Read Empire of the Vampire and it is an absolute masterpiece of a book. I just wish I had the Illumicrate copy. It truly is phenomenal 🤗

Oo I found pax at my book fair😜 it was like 18 dollars
I got the September Illumicrate Box too and I think I am still going to read EOTV
Pax is beautiful. So glad you got both books in the box.

I'm over halfway through Empire of the Vampire and I'm enjoying it a lot!
I found my book vault i got as a kid (winnie the pooh) when i was going through some stuff at my mom's, but i apparently lost the key so i have to try to pick the lock. I used to be obsesses with them

i've only had meh experiences with his books (only enjoyed illuminae) so idek if i will or won't at this point😂

I hope Kristoff redeem his words because this boo is a masterpiece like you said. I just want him to excuse with his readers for what he said.

Yeah. If you want to read it, do it. But don't ignore what he has done.
What did the author do?
@@nothanks1239 from what I found there’s anti Asian and anti Semitic allegations but he hasn’t commented on anything? I couldn’t find much either.

I finished eotv a few days ago and it was AMAZING! I’m super disappointed I didn’t buy into the hype and order the SE from the beginning

OMG YESSSSS READ NO EXIT!!! But also I just read his recent release and it’s horrible. So Dave yourself from that one, haha
