it’s so funny that you pull back from fantasy in the fall because I’m the exact opposite! 😂 as soon as the weather starts getting colder, it’s like an alarm goes off in my head like “perfect! time to make a cozy hot drink, bundle up under a fluffy blanket, and get fully immersed in a medieval high fantasy world 🥰🕯️” I hope you love all the books you got!! 🍁💖🍂
I'm reading The Pumpkin Spice Cafe right now. I'm like halfway through it and it is just so so aesthetic. Like the most perfect fall vibes. It's in a small town, in fall, in the northeast. There's a fall festival and they start talking about pumpkins in like the first chapter so it really is putting me in the fall mood
ugh i love you so much ashlynn! im so glad i found your channel, youre such a ray of sunshine and i can really see God's love shining through you! thank you for being you!
The Secret History is so good! It brought me back to reading after a long hiatus from books. Currently starting If We Were Villains and looks promising!
The Silent Patient, The Maidens and The Fury, exists in the same universe. Not really necessary to read in order, but there are bits and pieces of information that link them all together. It's a nice touch by the author! I love anything Alex Michaelides. Excited for you to read them. 😊
The Truly Devious books are some of my favorites ever. I especially love Box in the Woods because it gives off 80's summer camp slasher vibes, but Nine Liars is also an amazing standalone in the series.
Have you read the Emily Wilde books? They take place around a lottt of snow, but still somehow, for me, totally have fall vibes! Not everyone likes this series, but it has my heart 💛
I missed that in the haul I thought you put it back! Yay!!! It's so good I hope you like it when you pick it upppp! Honestly it can be slow, at times, but I love the journey it takes us on!!
So excited for fall reads! I just picked up The Secret History at a used bookstore recently and can’t wait to check it out! The Pumpkin Spice Cafe sounds like something I need in my life 😂🎃🍁
So excited for you to read thriller books again! I read The Silent Patient and loved it way more than The Maidens. Hope your reading experience is good😌
Oooh very excited! Several of these have been on my tbr for a hot minute! I really want to see a reading vlog of the maidens! I read the silent patient and loved his writing but wasn’t a fan of how the book ended so I’m curious if that one would be a better fit for me!
G U R L ! It's like we are cosmically connected! My sis and I went on a quest to find a DarkAc book to buddy read for Fall Read Kickoff, and we settled on The Maidens!😂 Also, I am in UT, too, and my fav daydream is running into u and Ian while bookshopping 🫶
I’ve heard the pumpkin spice cafe is quite spicy (and the whole series), which made me so sad cos they look so cute! interested to hear your thoughts on it!
I am so excited to see if you like Magnolia Park! I have been wanting to pick it up for so long since I love Gossip Girl but I’m scared! I also thought it had spice, (and I don’t like that) so keep us updated! ❤ happy fall!!!!
Here are some other fall books you should get once you read those if you have not already read them. The Atlas Six by Olivie Blake, The Lanterns Ember by Colleen Houck, All of Us Villains by Amanda Foody, Shady Hollow by Juneau Black, The Walls Around us by Nova Ren Suma, Little White Lies by Jennifer Lynn Barnes, In the Shadow Garden by Liz Parker, If I Stopped Haunting You by Colby Wilkens, Pumpkin Spice and Everyting Nice by Katie Cicateli-Kuc, and Witch of Wilde Things by Raquel Vasquez Gililand. These are all really good fall books I think you’d really like!
I'm saying this as a non native english speaker who only just started reading for about 2 year, Secret History is not difficult at all, and it's one of my favourite!
I am gonna cry. Stalking Jack the Ripper should be there especially since the new cover for paperbacks it's out😭 I was also shocked that there was The Tearsmith from Erin Doom😨❤ Btw you are very beautiful and thank you so much for this video❤ Love from Italy❤
In case you don't enjoy The Maidens, definitely try the Silent Patient because I absolutely loved the second one by far more than I did the first one!❤❤
Hi! I saw you got The Maidens! I recently read it! It is so good! I know you scared of the cover for The Silent Patient but it is worth it. Please read it. Happy Fall! Have a good weekend!
I’m nearly done reading Pumpkin Spice Cafe and I’m so disappointed! I love the setting and the concept of the series! The cover is soooo cute! But the story is such a big let down! Cant wait to hear your thoughts on the book.
Ooh you should definitely pick up The Silent Patient! I'm the same, I really don't like scary/horror books and covers sometimes turn me off. But I absolutely loved TSP - also if you can get through If We Were Villains you can definitely handle it!
I am also super judgey to Goodreads ratings! Which is interesting because I have definitely loved books rated under 4 stars yet it’s so hard for me to actually try them 😅
I just paused the video to say that, you should read “The silent patient”! Omg, I’m literally almost finished reading it, and the final pages I read just left me speechless. I still need to read the last 20 pages, but I’m not joking, I couldn’t put this book down. I hardly recommend you to read it! Me personally, I can’t wait to finish it, I’m already looking forward to it :D
Can’t wait for Magnolia Parks! I also thought the series wasn’t for me, but I finished the 3rd books yesterday and I’m loving it. FYI on the spice, I wouldn’t say its completely closed door, but what is described is not specific and more about their thoughts/feeling during… it’s also a large topic of conversation among the characters, but it didn’t make me feel uncomfortable. Hope that helps!
I had no idea about the last two spin-offs from truly devious and apparently she is writing more! But I’m reading now in the woods right now and it’s so good definitely the creepiest so far 😅 but not too scary lol
So the first book in the Magnolia Parks universe was a one star for me 🙃 But truly I just had to get through it and from there on the next two were 4.25 and 5 stars and I’m sure the next ones are also going to be rated so highly! 😫 The characters are my everything now
most like to see what you think of secret history because i want to know whether it is worth the read. I think you will have more fun with others ones though.
Wow i definitely want to read if we were villains.. never read a dark academia before so im a little nervous!!! Also so random but you look soooo pretty in the thumbnail 🥰🥰🥴
The Secret History is full of unpleasant characters doing awful things, but for some reason I really enjoyed reading it! I normally hate that kind of thing, but it was so compelling and well-written, I couldn't put it down! The Goldfinch by the same author has a similar vibe but is less dark, it's kind of a modern Charles Dickens in my opinion, and it felt *very* autumnal.
I'm most eager to see you read Magnolia Parks. I got the pumpkin spice cafe book on the kindle app, and I'm like a few pages in and idk if I'm going to finish it...because I started reading The Games that God's play by Abigail Owens. And that book like swept me away.
I really enjoyed Truly Devious and have been wanting to check out the rest of the series. I would love to hear your thoughts on it before I attempt to read the others.
Your Barnes & Noble is SO NICE! 😮
That is how the newer stores look like…

Facts!

I hope you love all the books you got!! 🍁💖🍂
Same! Idk why but I feel like autumn/winter are perfect for reading fantasy, and romance works best during spring/summer!

the secret history is surprisingly quite readable! one of my favourite books of all time
ugh i love you so much ashlynn! im so glad i found your channel, youre such a ray of sunshine and i can really see God's love shining through you! thank you for being you!
Wow🥹 thank you so much for being here and blessing me with your comment!! 🥰🫶🏼
It’s always good day when I get a notification that Ashlynn posted!🤍

From high school
Time to visit barnes n noble
You got to give The Silent Patient a try. Once you start, you will get hooked! I’ve read all of his books
The Silent Patient was good.
Did you like The Fury? I was really disappointed in it
I feel you on the pricy books lmao, however I have noticed many of my favorites have been on the higher end of the price range
The Secret History is my favorite book of the year!
It always makes my day when you and Ian post on the same day.
omg magnolia parks!!!!! love that series so much. truly feels like you’re watching chuck and blair from gossip girl, but in book form 🥹🥹🥹
I can’t wait to read it!!! Thank you so much for the suggestion 🫶🏼🥰🙌🏼
you’re actually sunshine as a person😭
Lol I commented the exact same thing when I first watched her videos. 😂 Both she and Ian are great!

The Secret History is so good! It brought me back to reading after a long hiatus from books. Currently starting If We Were Villains and looks promising!

Silent patient is one of my favorite book you should try it 😊❤

This was such a cozy book shopping vlog, exactly what I needed💗💗💗
I found that The Pumpkin Spice Cafe was cute but too spicey for me! I do think it gave some Gilmore Girl vibes though lol
There’s just something special about book shopping in the fall! Definitely living vicariously through this video. 🍂
i LOVE your going out and vlogging videos. They’re actually my fave!
Todd here. Great video I love a Hot Mocha in Autumn and trips to Barnes & Noble!
Def excited to see you read the rest of the Truly Devious series and The Secret History!😊
2:06 “the friends are trying to uncover it, figure out what happened…” LMAO THIS IS SO FUNNY IF YOU’VE READ THE BOOK
IM READING IT RIGHT NOW!! 😅😅hahaha
The Truly Devious books are some of my favorites ever. I especially love Box in the Woods because it gives off 80's summer camp slasher vibes, but Nine Liars is also an amazing standalone in the series.
Oooooo that’s so exciting!!!!
omg the secret history has been my favourite book for years good luck with that, the plot is really crazy but it's easy to read! ♡
I love your channel and I love the dodgy filming 😂 like it’s still totally relatable channel no matter how much your following goes up ❤️
Have you read the Emily Wilde books? They take place around a lottt of snow, but still somehow, for me, totally have fall vibes! Not everyone likes this series, but it has my heart 💛

Always so glad to see you dropped a video!
Listening to Ninth House now. And totally into Dark Academia for the season
I'm adding the Maidens to my TBR, that sounds good! I pull more forwards fantasy during fall so I'm currently reading the Zodiac Academy books.
I NEEED FEARLESS rn!!!!!!
I didn’t want to read The Silent Patient either but finally did and loved it - you need to read it!
🍁📚🎃🍁 Great haul! The Maiden was pretty good, and The Secret History is fantastic.
I can’t wait for you to read The Maidens I’ve been wanting to read that one!!!
I need to try matcha ❤sitting with my fall coffee, sitting next to my sunflower 🌻 doing my kids paperwork. Perfect 👌
So excited for fall reads! I just picked up The Secret History at a used bookstore recently and can’t wait to check it out! The Pumpkin Spice Cafe sounds like something I need in my life 😂🎃🍁

ash !!! idk if you've read a secret history yet, but if you're into audiobooks, donna tartt narrates the audiobook and it's STUNNING.
I'm saying this as a non native english speaker who only just started reading for about 2 year, Secret History is not difficult at all, and it's one of my favourite!
I am gonna cry. Stalking Jack the Ripper should be there especially since the new cover for paperbacks it's out😭 I was also shocked that there was The Tearsmith from Erin Doom😨❤
Btw you are very beautiful and thank you so much for this video❤
Love from Italy❤
Ahhhhhh another video ❤❤
In case you don't enjoy The Maidens, definitely try the Silent Patient because I absolutely loved the second one by far more than I did the first one!❤❤
Cozy video. Thanks!
FYI the book pumpkin spice cafe is currently free on kindle
No way! Yayyyyy! Thank you so much, it’s sold out every where hahaha.
I just finished the pumpkin spice cafe. I really enjoyed it!
If we were villains is so so good❤
Hi! I saw you got The Maidens! I recently read it! It is so good! I know you scared of the cover for The Silent Patient but it is worth it. Please read it. Happy Fall! Have a good weekend!

Omg ashlynn readddddd the silent patient! It’s spooky but if you can read Stephen king you’ll be more than fine!
Also, God bless you Ashlynn, Love you! ❤
Ooh you should definitely pick up The Silent Patient! I'm the same, I really don't like scary/horror books and covers sometimes turn me off. But I absolutely loved TSP - also if you can get through If We Were Villains you can definitely handle it!
I am also super judgey to Goodreads ratings! Which is interesting because I have definitely loved books rated under 4 stars yet it’s so hard for me to actually try them 😅
My comfort person❤❤❤❤
read the forbidden book Magnetic Aura on Borlest, and you'll see the secrets they're keeping from us.
I cannot wait to hear your thoughts on Secret History. I put it down after 100 pages or so. I
Can you please do a reading vlog for The Secret History and Pumpkin Spice Cafe!!! I need it your opinions before I buy them haha
I just paused the video to say that, you should read “The silent patient”! Omg, I’m literally almost finished reading it, and the final pages I read just left me speechless.

Pumpkin Spice Cafe is shelved in Romance!! Go get you that cozy book❤❤
Never read or heard of any of these books so I am excited to see what you think about them.
Can’t wait for Magnolia Parks! I also thought the series wasn’t for me, but I finished the 3rd books yesterday and I’m loving it.

I had no idea about the last two spin-offs from truly devious and apparently she is writing more! But I’m reading now in the woods right now and it’s so good definitely the creepiest so far 😅 but not too scary lol
You look amazing with this hair color 😍
You NEED to read the silent patient ITS SO GOOD
So the first book in the Magnolia Parks universe was a one star for me 🙃 But truly I just had to get through it and from there on the next two were 4.25 and 5 stars and I’m sure the next ones are also going to be rated so highly! 😫

I would like to see you read all of these. I just recently picked up Magnolia Parks, I also thought it was a spicy series so pleased to know it isn't.
Wow i definitely want to read if we were villains.. never read a dark academia before so im a little nervous!!! Also so random but you look soooo pretty in the thumbnail 🥰🥰🥴
I heard the pumpkin spice cafe is at sams club
I have Secret History on my September TBR, so I’m intrigued to see what you think of it as well!
you can read the silent patient its not scarry at all
The Secret History is full of unpleasant characters doing awful things, but for some reason I really enjoyed reading it!

Pumpkin spice has actual spice as a warning but otherwise love the haul! Please do an update video on all you read.
i'm almost done with the pumpkin spice cafe and it's really light hearted and at times it's silly.
Aww, yay! That’s what I want! Did you find it super spicy?
I just started Pumpkin Spice Cafe!!
