I initially didn’t want to read One Dark Window because I thought the cover was ugly too. Then I saw character art that changed my mind and of course ended up loving it!
I love seeing your mom buy you books and getting them both on the cart! Butcher & Blackbird and Indigo Ridge are both faves (although Juniper Hill is my favorite in the series), I do hope you enjoy them 💙 happy reading with this amazing tbr!
Istg I loooove your videos so much! 😫 The visuals are aesthetic, you are BEAUTIFUL, the sound quality is crisp and clean, the bookshelf is looking extra gorgeous aaand your humor is humoring once again 🤌🏼 what could we desire for more?
🕵️ Yes I was waiting for your video! Mama Mel is gorgeous! _looks like it's never been opened_ isn't that the idea!?😂 I read "what the river knows" last yr I think. It was kinda meh~ Another dnf - butcher & blackbird. Fun start but somehow it stopped vibing very soon I devoured little thieves books in April. Absolutely loved it! Cried so good too lol My may tbr for now consists of bookshops & bonedust (just started reading it - 20 pages i) and Reappearance of Rachel Price (one of my most anticipated releases)
I see where you get your alluring personality from 😊 your mom is Electric!…I cannot wait to hear what you think about Bridgerton #4. I read it in April (in prep for the premiere) and enjoyed this one the most out of the series so far.
Indigo Ridge is also on my tbr this month! I recently got kindle unlimited again as a reward to myself for doing something hard this month so it's book number 4 in the kindle unlimited tbr right now lol
Awesome video! I read, What the river knows and it was a great read. The love interest was just right. She kept the story interesting the whole time. Overall I gave it four stars.
Not a word of a lie, I've been contemplating reading butcher and blackbird for a while now. I started and stopped the fake mate, too. It wasn't the right time for that book but I'm might pick it back up again thanks to you. Also, never heard of what the river knows but I'm convinced, put it on the list! I never read Indigo Ridge but have read Juniper Hill and defs think you'll be into it. Sorry this is so long😣
🕵️ I don’t wanna jinx it but I feel like this month is my best reading month, as I’m on my second book 😂 just finished The Long Way Home and now I’m reading Book Lovers by Emily Henry
Honestly, your mom is both cute and respectfully also hot. Love her book shopping clips and her little dance. Award for best mom goes to... a mom who knows her daughter's taste.
I’m planning to read a couple romance novels and continue some series. 🕵️ My tbr: Funny Story Just for the Summer Happily Never After A Shadow Crown Murder and Mamon
been loving manga recently! you should definitely check out A Sign of Affection if you haven’t already! it is my absolute fav so sweet and pure and cute
that’s okay! i understand it’s not for everyone. i started watching the anime first and continued with the manga. definitely a nice break from high fantasy and a nice pure read between big chunky books and series for me!! :))
🔍🕵️📖 I am going to try and read some sequels this month so I don’t have as many series. I also have a few book club books which are Better than the movies, Powerless, and Murder Your employer which I have to read this month.
This month I am reading A Court of Silver Flames which I started at the end of April. I want to read A Funny Story and I Want To Die But I want to Eat tteokpokki
I don’t think One Dark Window has an ugly cover. I think it’s pretty. Not as pretty as some but not ugly at all IMO. My ugliest book is probably the host by Stephanie Meyers. The cover is a close up of a girls face specifically her eye and it’s really ugly but I have heard it’s good and hope to read it soon. I think you’d like it as well. Just have to get past the ugly cover.
The way my jaw dropped when I realized that was your mama! Apple-->Tree!!
you guys are the sweetest😭🫶🏻
loving how ive been in awe with how beautiful you are and finding out you get it from your momma!! ugh i wish my mom would buy me books too 😭

Same my mom doesn't care about reading either.. The sad part is my dad used to read a lot, has stopped reading

this TBR is stunninnnng! Isabel Ibañez is my fave author. Her writing is so easy to read and captivating ❤❤

Also, glad the universe chose Romancing Mr. Bridgerton for you, was praying that it would.
the universe knew what it was doing hehe🏃🏻♀️

whit is EVERYTHING!! their banter is unmaaatched😭🥹
Omg it took me forever to notice your Niall Horan sweatshirt!! I love it 😍
hehehe the best vibes only💖🧚🏻♀️✨
I didn’t love “What the River knows”. Figured the plot twists very early on and didn’t realize it had a second book that’s coming out in November.
we'll see how it goes for me👀
🕵️ I don’t wanna jinx it but I feel like this month is my best reading month, as I’m on my second book 😂 just finished The Long Way Home and now I’m reading Book Lovers by Emily Henry
listeeen, may has been a good one so far😮💨
Love this way of choosing books to read. Where do you find the prompts to put in the jar, and I mean how or from where do you choose them? 🕵♂
🔍 I'm planning to read Legendary! I'm a bit behind on it but finally am going to get around with it !
i still need to read finale😭
Have you read the knockemout trilogy by Lucy Score? If so, are the 2nd and 3rd worth it? It's mostly the second im not sure about, i adored the first!
i have [surprisingly] never read a lucy score book👀
🕵️ I can’t wait for ur opinion on Wild Love!!! I need to read it
not a hit for me, sadly😭
Yea, recently read and it wasn’t as good as the chestnut springs books.
Yes girlll!!!! I don’t really have a favorite color to 😅
glad i'm not the only one🤣
Momma Mel for her own channel! ❤
nothing she'd love more lmaoooo🤣
Honestly, your mom is both cute and respectfully also hot. Love her book shopping clips and her little dance. Award for best mom goes to... a mom who knows her daughter's taste.
