Not me pausing the video so that I can browse the bookshelves of the bookstore and decide what books I would pick, as if I don't live on the other side of the world. 🥲
So glad you got Tomie by Junji Ito!! It's very repetitive to me but I LOVE the art! I prefer his short story collections like "Smashed" "Shiver" and "Frankenstein" hope you enjoy reading Tomie!
To think I was balling my eyes out before watching this (stuff going on in my personal life), and then I watch this video and you always make me laugh and forget about life for a little while. Thank you x
1) I am so sorry to hear that and I hope things get better soon or at least marginally and the rest follows suit 2) thank you so much. I love to hear that. That means a lot to me 3) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ahhh I’m so jealous of your half price books it looks amazing 😍😍😍 I wish I had one closer to where I live hahah the closest one to me is a little over an hour away 😭 (also I love all the book shopping clips, you flipping open the books is great ASMR 😌)
Bahaha! I was so close to the counter too when I said that. I wasn’t planning on saying anything cause I wanted to stay covert but hot D*MN Olivia! That book is HUGE
I did a Google search for wayward children and it showed 6 books in the series. Looking forward to reading them soon. Thanks for the suggestion of a series.
Yeah, that's not for us ordinary people. Queen Katy got some cheats in her sleeves when it comes to this. Hope you alright :) ( Ps: I didn't really mean that you are ordinary. I am 100% that you are amazing Queen also. ) Take care of yourself and read without moving, it's safer.
@@cammie3578 At least you were brave enough to try it. I already know that I would only hurt somebody, myself or worst - the book. :D Sitting still it is then.
OMG 😱!!!!!!! Junji Ito !!!💜💜💜. I love his work ! My life partner and I have all of his works . We love him ! When you said “ we are going to WILL the universe not to rain ....BECAUSE we don’t care I long it takes I don’t care how bad I have to pee we are going to finish this book today 🎤”. 😂😂😂😂. I am sending good ju ju to you and Grace that the beach gods will keep the rain away so y’all can enjoy your vacation. The journalling is fire 🔥 . I don’t have an artistic bone in my body 😂😂.
Yeah, there’s been a lot of talk recently about authors in reader/reviewer spaces with some people wanting MORE of an author presence in places like BookTube (😐) and other people objecting to that. Personally, I do think violating certain boundries (and there are boundaries) leads to a lot of messiness. Plus, there are a ton a ways to interact with readers who actually want your interaction that don’t involve responding directly to reviews. Like, what was the purpose of Marrs responding to your post? Especially seeing as he only left emojis... was he trying to make his presence known? IDK, I just find that weirdly ominous. Sorry for ranting. I hope your having a marvelous time in Florida✨
I love junji ito! I've read a lot of his unpopular stuff but still have tomie sitting on my shelf unread lol. he probably commented because hasn't he personally reached out to gabby and sent her his books? he probably follows and watches anything she puts out there that has his book so I don't think it's creepy that he commented on your ig pic!
Just finished Tomie and loved it!! Excited to pick up other work from him 👏👏 I do think it is creepy. That is my personal Instagram and he shouldn’t be commenting on reviews of his work. That makes me anxious to give an honest opinion about literature. I don’t want someone to be offended but I don’t want to lie about my opinion. Also the laughing faces? How is that not creepy?
"it's disgusting how pretty it is out here" say less bc why is nature such a siren?? I just wanna stay inside bc allergies but I also wanna frolic through a forest or smth but I also don't want to get kidnapped aaahqhagabsja
Also, girl, how do you do Read-A-Thons? I keep trying to film one, but I always end up not reading so then I'm like "let me add this to the folder of failed readathon attempts" lmao
If I go into it planning on it being a readathon, then I will disappoint myself. This was the only time it worked out. What I did was plan on it being a half-week reading vlog. Then just waited to see how much I could read. And when the first 24 hours were over, I realized that I could do it. So I changed it to being a 48 hour readathon
@@KatieColson oof okay I'm going to take that advice and hope I'm able to do it! Because I really want to accomplish it, but my life and attention span really said no several times 😪 have fun on your vacation, girlie! 💖
Dude what is going on with John Marrs? How weird is that. I've only read one of his books and it was ok but this is not making me want to read more tbh. Would absolutely love an annotated Diviners copy from you! I haven't read it still (I know I know) but it's on my list to finish by the end of the year.
@@KatieColson the only book by him I enjoyed was The Passengers! After that I read What Lies Between Us, The One, and The Minders, all of which were 2-3 star reads for me. So I gave up😄
You have such a nice area next to where you live for walks! I’m so jealous. Also I feel like I’ve heard of a couple authors here lately that have been pretty ballsy on social media...like what is going on? Please stop.
The neighborhoods next to me are so nice. I am lucky that I've lived here for so many years that I have a pretty great rent for how nice the area is. RIGHT?! I don't understand and I do not appreciate it
I was interested in reading John Marrs' other books but I am feeling that cringe with you! How creepy....🤮 Also, I just started reading Uzumaki by Junji Ito and I am obsessed! Its so good 🥰
Thank you. I can’t stop thinking about him doing that. Cause it was so weird and intrusive. Ugh. Really?! Okay! I am excited to pick up the rest of his work
i’m literally like a nobody and have like 200 followers on insta of family and friends and john marrs followed me...like why? how did you find me tho...😂😂
" Im not the one who wrotte a trash book " I laughed so hard on this one !! Oh that was hilarious !
Not me pausing the video so that I can browse the bookshelves of the bookstore and decide what books I would pick, as if I don't live on the other side of the world. 🥲
I love doing that!!
Wait. What????? 21:04 You got some really beautiful sketching skills😍😍😍😍😍😍 OMG . That was so beautiful ❤
Oh wow thank you so much
I so wish I could walk and read I’d trip and fall down 😂😂😂
Enjoy your family reunion/ holiday 🌞⛱🌊🕶
So glad you got Tomie by Junji Ito!! It's very repetitive to me but I LOVE the art! I prefer his short story collections like "Smashed" "Shiver" and "Frankenstein" hope you enjoy reading Tomie!
Your rant about J Marrs was absolutely 😂
Obsessed with your Six of Crows bullet journal page! You’re so talented at drawing!
Aw thank you so much! 🤩🥰
So is aggressively happy Katie my favorite personality now?? Because that violent inhale of outside air is kinda giving me life 🤷🏼♀️😍
Haha! I love this comment. Thank you 😹

Maybe John Marrs saw yours and Gabbys live show and started lurking afterwards lol!
🤮🤮🤮 ugh, I can't stop thinking about how creepy that was.
I for one would CHERISH an annotated book from you!
an annotated copy from you would be absolutely God tier! loved the scenery of you walking and reading!
I have been using the c920 for 5 years and it’s a great cam! Good choice
I am so glad to hear it. I haven't even tried it out yet. I have been putting it off out of...I don't even know why
Omg yes an annotated copy of literally any book from you would be STELLAR!!
Not John Marrs being salty 🤭
Ahhh I’m so jealous of your half price books it looks amazing 😍😍😍 I wish I had one closer to where I live hahah the closest one to me is a little over an hour away 😭 (also I love all the book shopping clips, you flipping open the books is great ASMR 😌)
Omg yes that’s so strange that he commented laughing emojis on your post 🥴 it’s just uncomfortable like why
Thank you!! 🤗 I am so glad to hear that. I worry it gets boring sometimes. So thank you
oh my god that copy of IT is gorgeous, wtf
also this makes me wanna film more in bookstores how do you DO IT
oh my god as i was typing this, you said 'olivia you can't be serious' about oathbringer and i genuinely almost shit myself bc the TIMING.
Bahaha! I was so close to the counter too when I said that. I wasn’t planning on saying anything cause I wanted to stay covert but hot D*MN Olivia! That book is HUGE
Oh heck yeah! Super excited for another reading vlog!
I did a Google search for wayward children and it showed 6 books in the series. Looking forward to reading them soon. Thanks for the suggestion of a series.
Oh my god the Six of Crows bullet journal is incredible🤩🤩
Thank you so much!!
I haven’t read the diviner’s. Would love too
Maybe John Marrs was laughing because you feeling so passionate about the book one way or the other ended up driving up sales! aahahahaha!
I'm hoping that's what it was. Cause creeeeeepy, ha
I would finally read The Diviners if I had annotated copies^^ it's like an asynchronous buddy read!
Wow, that is such an interesting look at it! I love that. I think I will do a giveaway at some point
Tomie!!! I love Junji Ito's stuff. I hope you enjoy!
I have that Webcam or one super similar and love it
Okay. Phew. I still haven’t tried it out and I was worried
@@KatieColson also i cannot wait to hear your thoughts on the 6 of crows duology... I have them on my shelf but haven't touched them yet...
In An Absent Dream is my favorite of the series so I'm so glad you liked it!! You can just,,, stop there imo 😆
oh no. I'm scared. Maybe I'll buy the audios instead. I feel like I can't quit. But that I should. You know what I mean?
I don’t have a half priced books near me but you’re making me want to go find one so bad 😍
If there is one in driving distance then GOOoOoO it is so good!!
Please do the giveaway. That would be great! Hope you all have a great time in Florida!
I'm glad to hear you're interested. Thank you. I am planning on doing it at some point
I had never considered reading while I walk and I tried it today... Not for me! Haha I ran into a bench
Yeah, that's not for us ordinary people. Queen Katy got some cheats in her sleeves when it comes to this. Hope you alright :) ( Ps: I didn't really mean that you are ordinary. I am 100% that you are amazing Queen also. ) Take care of yourself and read without moving, it's safer.
@@vlcice5 oh I am fine being ordinary haha but I am going to read sitting still for a while lol only audiobooks for walks!
@@cammie3578 At least you were brave enough to try it. I already know that I would only hurt somebody, myself or worst - the book. :D Sitting still it is then.
Omg the fact that John Marrs commented on your post I-
Thank you. At first I was like “am I wrong?” But now that it’s been weeks, I’m so annoyed and weirded out by it
@@KatieColson Having a Netflix series must be getting to his head. Wasn’t good, do not recommend 😬

Ha! Exactly!! That is so funny and so true.
i sent you that in absent dream audio , i hope you like it. 😊😊
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH LEXY!!I adore it. Now you have me wondering if I should physically read or listen to the rest of the series? Both are phenomenal
OMG! I'd want to join the giveaway (I'd love to read your annotation!) but I live across the world from you T_T
I'm currently reading Crooked Kingdom and I CAN'T wait to watch your Six of Crows reread vlog!
Also, girl, how do you do Read-A-Thons? I keep trying to film one, but I always end up not reading so then I'm like "let me add this to the folder of failed readathon attempts" lmao
But lowkey wanna post them bc self deprecating videos that aren't too bad sound like a pretty solid memory

What do u have in ur arm? If the question is rude I'm so sorry u dont have to answer :)
No, it’s totally okay. It is a blood sugar monitor. Mine is a Dexcom. I have type 1 diabetes. So I have to monitor my blood sugar at all times
Wow, I've already decided to stop reading John Marrs but after learning about his creepy behavior I'm even more sure I'll avoid his work from now on.
I’m curious to know why you decided to stop reading him.
Right?! I am still so weirded out and honestly annoyed that he did that.

Authors lurking in reviewer spaces just continues to be weird 😬😬
I am so glad I am seeing so many people talking about this right now cause I am still so weirded out about that happening with Jon Marrs
Ewww...John Marrs; just suck it up and take it like a pro.
P.S. I swear I can not watch your videos without a pen and paper 😋
You overreacted 100% to John Marrs' reaction to your review and cussing at him for no reason makes you look terrible.
