Yesssss. I’m sad about that too! 😭 I had only just discovered Book Depository like 2-3 months ago so I didn’t have a lot of time with it. I did manage to get a few super beautiful UK editions but not enough! Any idea where else we can get UK editions? Apart from paying an arm and a leg on amazon UK?
🌧🌧🌧 I've been hit with the nostalgia, so I've been re reading the twilight books! Also, a "work in progress" is such a beautiful philosophy on life, Mel. Nobody is meant to be perfect. Life is all about trying our best and finding comfort in whatever small happiness we can find for ourselves ♡
I can’t explain how much I love The ballad of never after, and OUBH…the vibes is just ✨🍎🦊 so whimsical, pure escapism. I personally loved that Evangeline was naive character, who we watch learning to distrust people from her experiences…my friend had said she wished she was more ‘badass’ and I couldn’t disagree more, I loved her ability to believe in love and stay kind despite her experiences - her naivety can be frustrating at times, but her compassion and hope for circumstances is so admirable - we don’t need badass characters all the time 😊
Traveling with an eating disorder can be so terrifying. I currently wouldn't have the strenght to do that so I am so incredibly proud of you for managing so well and using this trip to actually make you feel better 🥰
I’m currently reading The Midnight Library. Haven’t read much of it so far but I’m enjoying it and it’s nice to read something out of my comfort zone for once
Thank you for being so open about your journey with learning to love your body. As someone also on that journey, I wish you every luck and happiness with it.
You are such a beautiful soul Anel! Glad this trip gave you exactly what you needed. It’s always necessary to take a mental break. I deal with major anxiety and it’s truly the most difficult thing to go through. Loved this vlog so much. Just keep swimming! 🐟
no bec i'm so happy the trip ended up being everything you wanted it to be and that you feel good in your body. take your time, healing is a long process. but its moments like these, days like these that make the bad days more bearable. hope this becomes a constant in your life. we love you
Thank u for talking about eating disorder. I have been struggling with it for so long I don't remember a time I did not experience it. Doesn't matter what my size is(I've lost so much weight during the past year) I still get triggered and struggle at any size. It is so exhausting. Hearing you talk about it makes me feel less alone❤
Just wait and read Magnolia Parks the long way home! You’ll see why Beej did what he did and why Magnolia does what she does. It’s one of my favorite series now. I even got a tattoo that says “How’s the weather?” With two bees 🐝and two lilac hearts 💜 it’s for my mental health and to represent the books. So happy you’ve read Magnolia Parks 🥰🌧️
It’s nice to hear your trip went well😊. I feel like your happiness shone through the camera and it made me so happy too❤. Hope your happy days continue back home!
I absolutely loved Ballad of Never After and can't wait for the next book!!! I am glad you enjoyed your vacation so much! I have been currently working through the City of Brass series and hope to finish it soon. Our warm weather disappeared leaving us with wind and storms the last week, but still getting some ride time in on my horse. ⛈
☔️☔️☔️ glad you had a positive good time while in my hometown of Miami! Sounds like you arrived on the day when we had really Rainy days and FTL areas were heavily flooded. I just finished Once Upon a Broken Heart and started Ballad so had to mute your spoilers. But am in total agreement with you on how easy and fun to read it is. The tension between the main characters keeps me so entertained! A much needed distraction as I myself just got back from a whirlwind week in Paris.
Ahhh! I wasn’t expecting my little note to make it into the video but I’m so happy you enjoyed Magnolia Parks, I’ve yet to read it still lol so I loved watching your reaction!
Happy the trip went good for you 💕. I’m currently reading terms and conditions and will pick up the serpent and the wings of night once im done, very excited to start it! 🌧️
🌧🌧🌧 Current reads: The Spear Cuts Through Water by Simon Jimenez & The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinson. I might start reading Daughter of the Moon Goddess by Sun Lynn Tan, but I'm not sure yet. Working on a new bullet journal, so very happy to setup and come up with some bujo spreads. It will be my reading journal, so looking for some inspiration. Happy to hear that you had a calming time in Miami. 🌻💚✨
This vlog made me want to pick up OUABH & TBONA but I want to finish Malibu Rising 1st. I have my pretty FL editions & have to devide if i want to read them or borrow from the library. 🌧🌧🌧
lissten i didn't think I'd like magnolia parks but. gave it a try. I AM NOW IN A CHOKEHOLD!!! i guessed who BJ cheated with but I was so unserious about it, I didn't think it was actually that person and I was SHOCKED!! the gasp I let out! these ppl are so unwell 😭I just started Daisy Haites a day ago and I'm already obsessed, plsssss make a vlog reading the rest of the series!
🌧️Reading Spark of Fire, The Good Daughter and Slouching Towards Bethlehem. I get so stressed over leaving my cats that I am anxious the entire trip to anywhere these days. I have cats that are 14 and 10 that I worry they will get ill while I am gone.
If you like water based moisturizers, Murad’s Nutrient Charged Water Gel is the best I’ve found. If you’re happy with your current then great but if you want to try something new, I cannot recommend it strongly enough. I had no idea my face could feel this amazing going into the back half of my 30s. It can be pricy as well but it’s worth every cent.
@@rubyanddelilahandnani I don’t pay that much. I get it from TJ Maxx or through a second hand site and usually those people have found it at TJ Maxx as well. And you didn’t want to be a butt but I wasn’t suggesting you buy it. I was suggesting it to someone that had already stated that they were willing to pay a little more for skincare.
Hey! I’m so sorry…I know you’ve posted about where you get your glasses many times before but I can’t find the link on the videos lately. Does someone mind sharing the name of the company Mel used again!?!?! Thanks so much!
I'm Reading the girl who drank the moon by Kelly barnhill. I'm enjoying it so far. I'm also reading twice Dead by Catlin Seal. I'm enjoying it. I'm feeling good. Trying to stay positive and motivated because I go to the doctor later this month. I understand missing pets. I have a fur sister Sadie (Dog) and I miss her so much when I am just gone for a day 🌕💚 Have a nice weekend.🌦️
I had a feeling shy BJ wasn't saying who it was, and I was right in the end. Edit: one thing that made it obvious to me was when Magnolia said "we cried together" guilty conscience Also, I hated Magnolia in Daisy Haites.
Thank you for mentioning book depository closing omg. I am HURTING I love my UK editions 😭😭😭 guess I’ll just have to move 🥹

Hearing you talk about Magnolia Parks has convinced me I NEED to pick it up as soon as I finish The House Across the Lake 👀

“I cried when I left my cats.” Relatable 😂
Thank you for being so vulnerable in talking about your mental health journey 🫂🫂🥹🥹🥰🥰

Completely sold on Magnolia Parks, your mind>>>
you are like sunshine
we love you mel
you should try out Korean skincare !!

$71 for not even 2 oz? Argan oil will cost you $20 at most.
@@rubyanddelilahandnani omg that price is outrageous!! I’ll stick to my cerave lol
@@melissabereading same lol.. didn’t mean to be a butt, but I can’t spend that much on skincare. I’d rather it go to books
@@rubyanddelilahandnani I wish I could spend that much on skincare lol cerave it is
