I have lost track of the amount of times I’ve made my way to your page to look for the next edition of this series😭 I am doing terrible at reading myself recently though so if you’re in a slump I can totally sympathise
I think it was a good work around to give you a pass. But you should stick to unhauling 2 for every pass you give yourself. That way its like one to take its place and one as a “punishment”.
I think if you´re not sure you should keep some book, just get rid of it. In my opinion bookshelves should represent the reader, not wasting space with mediocre books. You can read it on your kindle anytime anyway.
I've started doing this too except my kids pick out my books and I am falling in love with reading consistently again. Thanks for the influence. I always look forward to your videos.
god saves his toughest battles for his strongest warriors and watching supernatural for the first time is definitely one of them. sending you strength 🙏 LOVED this video !!!
Just found this series after desperately searching for something like Becca and the book's shelve it or scrap it and it is the only thing that has truly scratched the itch! I hope you continue the challenge 🤞🤞
Hi Beth, I love this series! It is a lot of fun to see you try and FIND your book! I laugh that you are hoping for a romance when your bookshelves are filled with thrillers. Too much fun! Your book blanket is really beginning to come together. Thank you for sharing your enthusiastic love of books. Elizabeth
I will say that “The Shadows” is pitched as horror….it’s a psychological thriller. There end up being no supernatural aspects and it all has human explanations and I was really let down by that when I read it. Lucid dreams go hand in hand with that human aspect too but you aren’t missing out on an awesome horror/supernatural book by DNF-ing.
I feel you on putting down books that I'm not in the mood for. Those I classify as TBC (to be continued) rather than DNF. It seems a little harsh to unhaul something when a book is TBC. My suggestion as an alternate: pick another book out of your jar and make yourself read it instead. Love the series! I'm inspired to do the same thing.
Omg that’s my obsession series to listen on audiobooks during my drive to work (the in death series!) I’ve listened to them multiple times - all of the series lol.. you either will love them or hate them.
You are one of my favorite book tubers and I screamed when you picked the outsiders. The outsiders is my all time favorite book. I read it in 6th grade as required reading and over 20 years later nothing has ever come close to topping it. Just like you tho, there is nothing I can really relate to, and besides the feeling it gives me, I couldn’t say exactly why it’s remained my all time fav. It’s just the feeling I remember it giving me in the moment when I read it for the first time. We were assigned to read the first chapter for school and I read it all that night and was bawling by the end. Every few years I will read it again and it still brings me right back to 6th grade. It’s truly the book that made me want to read more. Reading this gave me such joy and I’ve been chasing that high ever since. I recently learned it’s now on Broadway, and I cannot wait to go see it. The soundtrack is so good. I’m always happy to see people read it for the first time. ❤
I just found your channel about a week ago or so and I’ve been binging it. This is my favorite series. I don’t have much of a physical TBR (I keep it to under 20 books or so). But I have 100s of books on my goodreads TBR so I think I’m going to do the same Idea with those books so I can pick more of a variety of books. Thanks for the inspo
I'm glad you liked the Outsiders. I have read it twice, once with each of my kids, and I didn't care for it either time. I just found that I couldn't relate. The In Death series is pretty good, and you could probably read it out of order, but I think you would benefit from at least reading the first one or two in the series!
I feel you about the rain and storms because I live in TX. You are doing the work of helping me have zero guilt of unhauling books, so my home (and husband) thank you. I've consumed The Outsiders as a movie (with Ralph Macchio & Diane Ladd being my favorite characters). I look forward to your take: book vs movie.
Your twenty miles rant made me laugh. It happened to me once when I read All the Light We cannot See which is filled with innacurencies, mostly historical but also distancial. It made me so mad. Like why won't you bother checking walking distance when writing your book ?
I am trying to do this with my shelves too. They are pretty much full, so I have to start getting rid of some if i want to bring any more in, which of course i do 😅 I love this series, it keeps my motivation going! The Stand is one i am working on right now too, cant wait to hear your thoughts on it!
I think that was a great pass! I don't know anything about the book but having to unhaul two on your TBR to keep one on your TBR for later should be a new rule you allow yourself!
Just out of curiosity, did you put the pink slip for "Alone With You In The Ether" back into your little container? With regards to "Blind Side" if you felt that the book was just ok and if it's something that you aren't going to read again - then just pass it on, it will make space on your shelf for something that you do love or treasure, of course this is just my opinion and you do what's best for you and your shelves. P.S. Have you ever gone through your shelf and done a clean up? (As in removing books you've read prior and haven't enjoyed or they were just mid books, like "The Angel Maker" which you've only recently unhauled)
You don’t have to be sorry for anything! This is YOUR challenge! If it happens again where you’re not in the mood to read a certain book, maybe put it back on the shelf and pick another one out of the jar. 😊
I love this series! Thank you for posting so early in the month! I'm glad you gave yourself a pass. It's your game, your books, and you know what you want girl! :)
Look girl - I don’t know how you have zoomed up the ladder into my favorite you tubers, but it’s happened. I enjoy you and giggle with you. This series is soooo fun! Take care - Love you.
The Outsiders is one of my FAVORITE books one of the few books I actually enjoyed as required reading in high school ❤ I was 14 when I read it and then we watched the movie.
The shadows was the first ever book I just randomly picked up at target and read on my own a few years ago and it started my reading journey! I never see anyone talk about it so it’s so crazy to see it in your vid!💗
Hey, I miss your videos so much. I follow you on instagram and I’ve watched all your book videos on there. Just a suggestion, but maybe you can upload them as RUclips shorts so that people here can stay updated too? They’ve just upped the time limit to 3 minutes per video. Wish you the best and happy holidays.
"The Outsiders" was required reading for me in 5th grade (in the early 90s). We weren't allowed to watch the movie, though. XD I remember INTENSELY disliking it and being very confused as to why everyone else in class was absolutely obsessed with it. 😂
ANOTHER SUPERNATURAL FAN!!! IT'S MY MAIN COMFORT SHOW!!! I'd love to see them included in a "recommending characters books" video, because most of those videos that people do are characters I've never heard of. Also, I can't imagine what I'd recommend Cas, lol.
I hated The Outsiders when we had to read it in school (Year 8 in the UK, so 12-13 year olds). I think a big part of my dislike was that the slang they used was so dated to us in the 90s.
I can’t remember but were you the one who had casually mentioned a plastic organizer on a shelf that you use for all your bookmarks?? If that was you can you let me know where you bought it? Thank you!!
for anyone interested in Blind Side - it is not accurate to football nor college sports in general AT ALL. this book is the reason why i dont read sports romances because the entire thing was so blatantly incorrect, like she didnt even bother to google anything about the sport
I was iffy about the free pass but unhauling instead definitely covers the free pass I think that is fair. Unhaul something else if you're gonna pass 💯
I am reading The Shadows this month as well as a group book for Shadow Cabin for Camp SeasonAthon. I plan on reading it closer to the live show so it is fresh on my mind. Oh no, I hope I end up enjoying it more than you did. What are the dates for the next round of On The Hour? I joined the discord and asked in there, but no one has responded. I also sent you a private message through discord asking you about having you potentially cohost a readathon. I think what you did for "the pass" was definitely fair. Enjoy your binge watching, and I hope to hear back from you soon either through here, discord, or instagram.
Keep coming to your channel to make sure I haven’t missed the latest episode! Hope you’re doing okay and that we see you soon💜
I have to say this has easily became one of my favorite video series that pops onto RUclips. 😂💕
Same!
Same for me
Me too! I’m loving it.
same😂🫶🏻
Same! I subscribed specifically because of this series.
I have lost track of the amount of times I’ve made my way to your page to look for the next edition of this series😭 I am doing terrible at reading myself recently though so if you’re in a slump I can totally sympathise
I hope you're doing okay Beth!
I miss you!! I hope youre doiing ok!!
I definitely don't think you should force yourself to read a book that you're not in the mood for! I think what you did in the video is great :)
Hey Beth, I miss yout videos so much! How this series going? Is it still on going ??? Pleeeas come back! =D
I think it was a good work around to give you a pass. But you should stick to unhauling 2 for every pass you give yourself. That way its like one to take its place and one as a “punishment”.
This is my favourite serie on YT right now! Looking forward to the next episode when you have time to make it!
I think if you´re not sure you should keep some book, just get rid of it. In my opinion bookshelves should represent the reader, not wasting space with mediocre books. You can read it on your kindle anytime anyway.
i’m so happy you gave yourself that pass! you definitely need to be in the mood for that book but it is soooo good!!
I've started doing this too except my kids pick out my books and I am falling in love with reading consistently again. Thanks for the influence. I always look forward to your videos.
In the first 10 minutes, but I love The Outsiders, one of the only books from school that I enjoyed reading!
same!
I didn't like it because we had to analyze and write an essay about it. I reread it within the last year and loved it.
god saves his toughest battles for his strongest warriors and watching supernatural for the first time is definitely one of them. sending you strength 🙏 LOVED this video !!!
Just found this series after desperately searching for something like Becca and the book's shelve it or scrap it and it is the only thing that has truly scratched the itch! I hope you continue the challenge 🤞🤞
The villainy of you not mentioning which season of supernatural you are on.
I started season three this morning 😜
@@BethMorvant I don't know if you have watched the show before but if not, power through s6 and s7. They are the weakest seasons. Enjoy!
Yes watch the original movie: Patrick Swayze, Tom cruise, rob Lowe, Ralph Macchio, and C Thomas Howell. Love it
I looooove The Outsiders! I teach it in 9th grade for a fun, easy read. The kids love it!
I definitely need to do this. I have 600+ books that are unread. Just sitting on my shelves.
Hope all is well ❤
I miss you Beth. I hope your doing ok 💕
What a cute idea doing a book blanket. So clever! And it is so pretty.😍
I know it's only been 2 weeks, but I am SO ready for the next one.
This intro is sooooo satisfying to watch! Just love this series!

Watching your Supernatural arc is truly entertaining 😂😂
Beth! How did you know I was trying to avoid work?! Hah I love these videos!
Omg that’s my obsession series to listen on audiobooks during my drive to work (the in death series!) I’ve listened to them multiple times - all of the series lol.. you either will love them or hate them.
I personally don't keep any books iv read as I don't re read so I can't even get my head round someone keeping space for a book they think is only ok
😂😅😂😅...you crack me up! Girrrl, that 20-mile walk!!!
Love your videos!
Edit: All fair!

Ive been watching this since the beginning and im so excited seeing it grow!
I'm glad you liked the Outsiders. I have read it twice, once with each of my kids, and I didn't care for it either time. I just found that I couldn't relate.

I found this series randomly on YT and I LOVE IT almost makes me inspired to do the same thing for my largeeeee owned TBR! Almost….😅
I am trying to do this with my shelves too. They are pretty much full, so I have to start getting rid of some if i want to bring any more in, which of course i do 😅 I love this series, it keeps my motivation going! The Stand is one i am working on right now too, cant wait to hear your thoughts on it!
I think that was a great pass! I don't know anything about the book but having to unhaul two on your TBR to keep one on your TBR for later should be a new rule you allow yourself!
Im also reading the Stand! Id be so mad if it was spoiled by another book😭
I have a Pug/Chihuahua mix (a Chug) and he is allergic to EVERYTHING! Human dander included! I feel your pain
i cant blame you for the supernatural obsession, i started it for the first time in 2015 and since then ive rewatched it 9 times 😭
Just out of curiosity, did you put the pink slip for "Alone With You In The Ether" back into your little container?

Girl! Get yourself a free pass! Don't worry ❤ You deserve it.
You don’t have to be sorry for anything! This is YOUR challenge! If it happens again where you’re not in the mood to read a certain book, maybe put it back on the shelf and pick another one out of the jar. 😊
I weeped for the last few chapters of the outsiders.
Omg the outsiders is my favorite and my sister’s favorite as well such a great book
I love this series! Thank you for posting so early in the month! I'm glad you gave yourself a pass. It's your game, your books, and you know what you want girl! :)
Look girl - I don’t know how you have zoomed up the ladder into my favorite you tubers, but it’s happened. I enjoy you and giggle with you. This series is soooo fun! Take care - Love you.
❤❤❤
this is my favorite series !! look forward to it every month
The Outsiders is one of my FAVORITE books one of the few books I actually enjoyed as required reading in high school ❤ I was 14 when I read it and then we watched the movie.
The Outsiders - I thought Ponyboy is youngest of three brothers.
My bad
Fairy tales beauty 😍 🥰 and the beast Rapunzel tumblina and a other stories
I'm obsessed with this series. Perfect for my lunch hour!
Totally fair swap for Alone with you in the Ether.
The shadows was the first ever book I just randomly picked up at target and read on my own a few years ago and it started my reading journey! I never see anyone talk about it so it’s so crazy to see it in your vid!💗
Unhauling two to keep one is totally a fair "pass"!!
Hey, I miss your videos so much. I follow you on instagram and I’ve watched all your book videos on there. Just a suggestion, but maybe you can upload them as RUclips shorts so that people here can stay updated too? They’ve just upped the time limit to 3 minutes per video.

I love this series :D

The Outsiders is now a musical on Broadway. In fact it won Tony awards this last week.
I really enjoyed Blaze. Some things from the 70s didn’t age very well, but I enjoyed it
ANOTHER SUPERNATURAL FAN!!! IT'S MY MAIN COMFORT SHOW!!! I'd love to see them included in a "recommending characters books" video, because most of those videos that people do are characters I've never heard of. Also, I can't imagine what I'd recommend Cas, lol.
I hated The Outsiders when we had to read it in school (Year 8 in the UK, so 12-13 year olds). I think a big part of my dislike was that the slang they used was so dated to us in the 90s.
I love love love the idea of a book blanket! Do you add a row for books dnf'd as well or only the ones your finished? Cos I dnf a lot lol!
Only the ones I finish HOWEVER the DNF thing wasn’t on my mind when I started it so next year definitely doing that!
I can’t remember but were you the one who had casually mentioned a plastic organizer on a shelf that you use for all your bookmarks?? If that was you can you let me know where you bought it? Thank you!!
Don’t feel bad about unhauling the JD Robb books. I’ve read the first 10 in the series and they’re good, but not amazing. 3 star reads for me
I also love this video series! It’s inspiring me to do one too so I can knock down that TBR!
You seem so genuine and nice, love your videos! ❤
If you enjoy Regency romances, I'd recommend Lisa Kleypas (Again The Magic, Secrets Of A Summer Night, Devil In Winter).
I love Supernatural! I'm on my first rewatch of the whole series. It will take over your life lol
This is my favourite thing to watch on RUclips! Best series ever!
The way you speak about the humidity and wet air and weather 😂 just so valid! I wish we could be irl friends. I love your videos and this series!
the outsiders and AWYITE are two of my favorite books of all time!!! Im excited to see what you think 👀
Ugh best series ever
Absolutely my fave series to watch right now!!! So glad I came across your channel!
How many unread books do you have now? Do you keep a running list on your computer?
This is the first time I have ever seen Eyes of the Dragon in the collection of a book tuber that is my favorite Stephen King Book
U can have a free pass we understand!😂
i loved the outsiders i read it in school. the edition you have is beautiful!!
My husband was putting legos together while I was reading earlier 🤣
I’m dying to know what the spoiler for The Stand was!
love your videos, you never fail to make me smile. what season/ep of supernatural are you at?
These are my favorite videos to watch from you! Love them!
Welcome to Supernatural 😈
I started rewatching it this year. It's like my sixth time watching S1-3 😅
I’m obsessed with these vids my new favorites!! I’ve already binged all the other vids on your channel so this is much needed 😂🎉❤
every time these pop up on my feed, I click IMMEDIATELY!
for anyone interested in Blind Side - it is not accurate to football nor college sports in general AT ALL. this book is the reason why i dont read sports romances because the entire thing was so blatantly incorrect, like she didnt even bother to google anything about the sport
I need to do this to my own shelves 😅 I bring in probably 5 books for every 1 book I read…It’s getting out of hand.
This is my favourite series, Beth
I was iffy about the free pass but unhauling instead definitely covers the free pass I think that is fair. Unhaul something else if you're gonna pass 💯
Okay but this is my favorite series ever! 🥰
Great video! You made me feel so much better after saying you have over 700 unread books 😂 I’m getting up there!!!
I just started the video but I love the Outsiders so much❤ the only book I was made to read for school that I still love and remember
What stitch are you using on that blanket it looks really cool
These are my fav videos ♡ never stop them, PLEASE. 🥰
Welcome to the Supernatural fandom 💕 Love your videos ☺️
I am reading The Shadows this month as well as a group book for Shadow Cabin for Camp SeasonAthon. I plan on reading it closer to the live show so it is fresh on my mind. Oh no, I hope I end up enjoying it more than you did.
