"I don't understand how I could have worked so many hours and not managed to complete every single thing that's in my weekly schedule..." I felt that to my core. The last 2 months of my life.
I was so bored with Deal with the Elf King, I ended up DNF'ing it.
I'm so glad I got it through Kindle Unlimited and didn't buy it, because I was so disappointed. I had really expected to love it.
I read the Plated Prisoner series this month and LOVED IT. Every book gets better and bettet and I know you are going to love this series a lot as well. I cannot wait for these vlogs!! Good luck with the readathon, I'm excited for it :)
Becca is fast becoming the booktube go to Queen 👑 for Fantasy Romance recs!! My love for this genre has grown so much!!! Thank you Becca for your videos they've helped me during my depression days. You and Gavin are a balm for the blistered soul 🤓🤗💙🌼🙏
once you learn who the love interest is in plated prisoners i think you're going to love them! I just finished book three today and I flew through this series! good luck with your reads!
I absolutely love flannels as well, I completely agree
I also read Gild in August and thought it was really good :) I'm curious what to expect with further books in this series
Watch this last night, but got distracted before I got to comment. I'm so happy your about to read The Bone Witch. I hope you love it as much as I did. The book covers are so beautiful.
The Plated Prisoner series quickly became my favorite series this year after I read the second and third books. Can't wait for the 4th book in May!
You look cute! 😍😍😍 I love flannels too! Gild sounds intriguing…🥰🥰🥰
i always say 'deal with the elf king' is kind of like, a place to start to get into fantasy romance but you probably won't be bowled over if you already read the genre. i liked it personally but i think it was because, as you said, it's a guaranteed hea and sometimes i need that lol.
I felt the exact same way about A Deal with the Elf King.
I've heard good things about Deal with the elf king- I hope you enjoy it. I'm pretty sure that Ashleigh read it and liked it.
Gild is on my tbr. 😍😍😍
I knew you would love Gild! It gets better every book. You should really do a spoiler video for Glint and Gleam! They’re amazing and my new favorite series.
I haven’t read The Bone Witch but I read The Never Tilting World duology by Rin Chupeco and they were so much fun and super quick to get through
I recently got Bone Wotch on my kindle and hoping to get to it before the end of the year.
I read The Deal with the Elf King this month too and found it fairly mehhhh as well. But I started Desperate Measures because you’ve been hyping it so much and I am LOVING it 😍 omg I’m already desperate to read the rest of the series n I still have 50 pages left in the first book 🤦🏼♀️
I now want to read gild and I am excited to see what you think of the bone witch books. I liked them
Just wait until you get to the end of Gleam... 🤯 The first book is a lot of world and character building, and gives you a baseline that the next books build off of and grow from.
I just loooove your videos and your recommendations 😍💜
Wait until you get to gleam. That book was so good!! I love the plated prisoner series
I am now 100% going to add Gild to my TBR now god it’s becoming so huge😰But honestly I really want to read Gild now and I’m trying to figure out how to put it on my September TBR…
Judging by how much you like Sarah J Maas books and how much you disliked A Deal with the Elf King, I think we have similar tastes….so I can’t wait to try reading Gild! 🤞
I've read Gild, Glint & Gleam in 3 days. I loved them!
Same!
That sucks about the elf king cause I love the cover 😩
I keep putting off reading because of all the readathon videos coming out in my subscriptions, and then I saw this in my sub box...guess I'll have to procrastinate a bit longer 😂
I thoroughly enjoyed this reading vlog ❤️ Also, great perseverance on your part for finishing A Deal with the Elf King, I think I dnf’ed it 3 chapters in, the writing was subpar in my opinion, every scene was built very poorly and the setting was just bare bones, as if the author couldn’t write a well-fleshed out setting for her story. Gild was awesome, I’m currently finishing book 2, I hope you enjoy it as much as/more than book 1, such an interesting series imo ☺️
I read deal with the elf king and thought it was ok and started Gild last week and DNF'd it a little over half way. I just couldn't how slow it was neither could I like the characters
I'm currently reading A Deal with the Elf King. I have just over 60 pages left, but my main problem with it is we spend so much time with Luella and inside her head that I'm tired of it. She's constantly flipping between wanting to be with Eldas, but then is like "I want to go back to my home and patients, they need me...blah blah blah." I really think it would be better if we got a chapter or two of Eldas' pov just to show what is going on through his eyes. I have to wait to put it through cawpile but its probably a 3 star read for me as well.
I looooved a deal with the elf king my copy of the companion sequel literally came today and I want to stop everything just to read it lol
i also found a deal with the elf king to be just meh but i’m still gonna give elise kova’s other series’ a try as they seem better received
We buddy read A Deal With The Elf King couple months ago, it was like ten people, no-one liked it, our rating went from 3* to lowest 1.5* (me 😁), it was so bad. Majority gave it 2 stars only 🙈. We were all so dissapointed.
Ooo I’m obsessed with that check shirt!!🤩 anyone know where it’s from? I need it In my life😂
The Bookopoly board was a bitch for my rolls for September. I did 6 rolls and had to add 4 cause of doubles!
Me too! 😂
A waist band that isn’t elasticated? Does such a thing exist?
"The first chapter is an orgy"
Me: ...Excuse me
Guessing you/Curtis are Man United fans? 😜🥳
Haha yes Curtis is. I only watch international tournaments 😂
i got 30% into deal with the elf king. I found it so boring i couldn't read it anymore.
"viva Ronaldo" I'm assuming the Mr is a Man U fan then?? (cause sames haha)
Absolutely he is. He runs downstairs every day and tells me transfer news and in just like..... k thanks 😂
@@BeccaandTheBooks I'm a bit more passive but my dad is a massive fan so I get the same 😂
you passed out and couldnt update because the book was too boring!! 🤣
