Oh my gosh Christine! I'm watching this video, and Alex walks by RIGHT AT THE POINT where you say you haven't watched Star Wars. I have the volume on low, but somehow he heard it, stops in his tracks and just gawks. "She hasn't watched Star Wars?" I just laugh cause we just talked about this. Then he walks away and mutters "that's disgusting." HAHAHAHAHAHA!
lolololol XD
polandbananas20 Star Wars is awesome, especially the Original Trilogy. it has the same ingredients like all your fave Dystopian and Fantasy novels. At least read some Star Wars novels or graphic novels because you're seriously missing out! I mean Episode VII comes out in Dec. 2015, now is a good time to watch the movies(and if you feel like it, you can watch the prequel trilogy, which I personally dont recommend)also, have you even seen the animated shows?
Don't worry Christine I haven't watched it yet neither😊😊😊
+James Lawner I see the Doctor...🤓😏🤓
Tashapolis I watch the fifth movie in the new one and I hate them
Sometimes I read a book that so good after I finsh it I wish I could forget it so I can read it again do you guys get that feeling to 😖😩
Sumaya Yusuf ME WITH THE LUNAR CHRONICLES
I feel like you and Bunny (graveyardgirl) would get along really well.
IM SO OVER WHELMED BY THE AMOUNT OF BOOKS I WANT TO READ AND I DONT KNOW WHERE TO START (the Mortal Instruments Series, Darkest minds trilogy, Divergent trilogy, Harry Potter, and a lot more...) HELP
I would read divergent first. You'll get through it so fast.
RandomSam lol thanks
After divergent I'd go with the mortal instruments, followed by the infernal devices because they related to TMI :)
READ HARRY POTTER FIRST ITS SO EASY TO GET INTO AND ITS SO MUCH FUN
The divergent trilogy isn't even in the same league as Harry potter. Read harry potter first.
6 book trilogy
Yep, makes sense
she also said two twins
I was about to go to sleep till I saw this on my subscriptions.
i was about to start reading
Same
Christine stops me every time! Lol
Haha christine just makes me stop everything and watch her :D
Ashley T abit late reply but im ur 100th like xD
Favorites of 2014:
To all the boys I've loved before
Since you've been gone
Slammed (Point of Retreat as well)
Maybe someday
Ignite me
Aristotle and Dante discover the secrets of the universe
Anna and the French kiss (and ones that follow)
Hyperbole and a Half
Mara Dyer trilogy
Been such a good year of reading!
My uncle works with Amazon publishing, and he gave me a test copy of Aristotle and Dante a few years back and I loved it. :)
I've told that to all the boys I've loved before is really good is it worth it? The beginning is really slow and i keep picking it up and putting it down so is it worth it?
Princess Girl Yeah its super good one of my favorites! Highly recommended :)
My tbr list is so long. And after I binge watch your videos, it just gets longer.
Omg same :( too many books, so little money ;)
Same. The more booktube videos I watch, the more motivated I am to read. But then I ended up watching more booktube videos instead of actually reading, and my tbr just gets longer lol. I feel so unproductive haha
SO MANY BOOKS TO READ.
I still have to read all the books you ( Christine ) have gotten me excited about.
But at the same time there are SO many books that I wanna read.
Curse Goodreads and Barnes and Noble.
I read so much this year. I think my favourites are:
10. The Starcrossed Trilogy
9. The Mara Dyer Trilogy
8. Control
7. Trial by Fire
6. If I Stay
5. Fangirl
4. City of Heavenly Fire
3. The Legend Trilogy
2. Tiger’s Curse
1. Ignite Me
So hard to choose!!!
~Shar Kishimoto the Awkward Turtle
I really have to pick up the starcrossed trilogy... mara dyer and fangirl were really great. BUT THE LEGEND TRILOGY
Ignite me was so amazing!😍❤️
TIGERS CURSE YESSS!
Omg TIGER'S CURSE YASSSS! It's my all time favourite series! They are making a fifth book! (Not including Tigers Promise)
Legend was amazing!! ^-^
I can't wait till you read Heir of Dire! It was my fav so far and seeing your book talks make me so happy!
You totally should continue with the Art of Seduction episodes, they're really funny and the last one made my day. Some of my all time fave books are on this list, I'm really gla you enjoyed them! Xoxo
Thank you! *goes to the bookstore and gets to buying*
Now *build shelves*
Then *makes a secret room*
And then *has a secret room with only shelves and shelves of books*
You name makes me so happy
I freaking love your channel. It is my faaaaavorite book channel...EVAR. I wrote down all the books in this video which I haven't read and am adding them to my goodreads. My goodreads book goal increases every time I watch one of your videos because your enthusiasm just pumps me up hahaha. THANK YOUUUUU for being awesomesauce!
I love how excited you get about every book! Adding some of these to my list of books to read
I remember watching the first episode of the Art of Seduction months and months ago and LOVING it. I thought it was hilarious! I also adored the second one when you posted it. I really hope you continue on with it, especially if it's something you enjoy doing. :)
Oh my gosh, the way you talk about the books you like makes me want to read pretty much all of them. You get so excited, and then I get so excited. You didn't even explain that much about the books, but now I want I read most, if not all, of them. Loved the video, obvi.
Fyi, I have a bunch of sticky notes on my entertainment stand with books suggested by you. Lol
yay, you finally read a Morgan Matson book! I'm so happy you enjoyed Since You've Been Gone, its definitely one of my favourites!
I've read so many books this year & my favorites are ToG series, TMI, Shatter Me trilogy, The Darkest Minds, PJO, The 5th Wave etc.! It's been a very successful year for me & for you, too! Can't wait for your HoF book talk!
OMG, CHRISTINE! I just noticed the RUclips Silver Play button in the back! Aaaahhh, congrats, times a million
thank you!
Great video Christine! Loved Angelfall and I'm so looking forward to World After. I finally began The Assassin's Blade. Definitely enjoying it and will be starting it soon.
I've already watched both episodes of TAOS but I just wanted to let you know that I love them so much! I was anticipating the second episode foreverrrr
"In The Afterlight" has been my favorite of this year by far. i loved it so much
Heir of Fire was AMAZING!! Definitely one of my favourite books ever!! I didn't think I was going to like it as much, due to Celaena's separation from Chaol and Dorian, but WOW!! So incredible
Omg, yes, I'm so glad that you loved Since You've Been Gone! It's one of my favorite contemporary book! I would love to see you do a book talk if you ever get the chance. :)
I absolutely enjoyed seeing what you loved reading this year, and I know what I should check out soon. In January it will be a year since I started watching BookTube and you were the first channel I found. You make awesome and entertaining videos, and I can't wait for the next episode of The Art of Seduction! I loved the intro to episode 2!
Dat red lip doe, it's sooo good. Gonna have to agree with you on the Lunar Chronicles, also Silver Shadows by Richelle Mead was really fantastic and I am so sad Bloodlines is almost over. I went from not liking Sydney to her being one of my all time favorite characters. Daughter of Smoke and Bone series was also on my 2014 awesome list.
WHY IS CHRISTINE SO FABULOUS OMG I LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS SOOO MUCH
I like how you put the second video at the end. Its like a preview to the next book at the end of the previous one.
Since You've Been Gone would definitely make my favourites too :)
AND YOUR SHELVES AT THE BACK LOOK SO GORGEOUS WITH THOSE LIGHTS
It always makes my day when I see you made a new video!!!! You're amazing and DFTBA
Cinder sounds like something I would really like to get into. I didn't really read as much as I wanted to this year either.. :/ I did read like all of John Green's books for the first time this year though, which were amaze-balls! And I also went to a lot of writing conferences, which were really insightful and inspiring, and I wrote A LOT! I've almost got my first novel polished and ready, and I am SO EXCITED!!
Aw, Just One Day was my favorite book of last year, so I'm glad that made it to your list this year. I'm SO excited that it's going to be a movie!! I always thought it would make a better one than if I stay! Anyway, my fave this year was the entire PJO and Heroes of Olympus series. I read all 9 for the first time leading up to the release of Blood of Olympus and then I was in a 2 month reading slump after bc I didn't want to read anything that wasn't PJO related!! Out of them all, my favorites were probably Mark of Athena and The Last Olympian and The Titan's Curse!
The Selection Series by Kiera Cass is one to definitely pick up. You just fall in love with the characters!
Have spent all of my Sunday binge watching you.
YOU'RE MY SPIRIT ANIMAL. ❤️
Could you please do a bookshelf tour!!! You have so many more books since the last one!!
I understand your reading slump struggles, my tbr is piling up so much
Your editing is always so perfect... TEACH ME YOUR WAYS
Thank you for brightening my bleary day:) this video has been highly anticipated for me and it was amazing my tbr list is getting so long right now and I love your Taos videos and am looking forward to the next one:)
CHRISTINE CHRISTINE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO A BOOKSHELF TOUR (an updated version) WITH YOUR AWESOME RAINBOW SHELVES PLEASE

My favorite was the Retribution of Mara Dyer! ♡
I loved both of the Art of Seduction videos! So funny :) Can't wait for more!!
I think this time of year we are all in a reading slump. I have Netflix to blame. As soon as I finish a series there is always ANOTHER one I have to watch
Thanks to you Christine i got into the Mortal Instruments (read 3 first ones) and The Infernal devices (read book 1), I'm getting the rest for Christmas :) And I just LOOOVE them
Since You've Been Gone was one of my favourites as well! Along with Anna and the French Kiss, COHF, Shatter Me series
So many amazing books! I've been meaning to read I'll Give You the Sun for so long but hopefully I'll get to read it soon! And the Throne of Glass series is freaking amazing!
That dance at the beginning was what really got me. Boy! This girl has energy and I LOVE IT
So I've seen Cinder so many times and like you didnt really think I would like it but you definitely sold me ! I feel like I have to go pick it up right now lol

Its okay Christine. I always get a book slump during fall and winter but in spring and summer I come back at full force.
I'd really appreciate an updated bookshelf tour as a Christmas/New Year gift. :) And The Civil Wars is one of my favorite bands omg.

I was just wondering if u were going to do a I'll give you the sun booktalk. I LOVED it.
Can't wait to see what everyone is going to read in the new year.
I hope the first book I read next year Is awesome.
Almost caught up on Cassandra Clare's books! Can't wait to get to City of Heavenly Fire. Started the series SIX YEARS AGO. I think its time to quit stalling, and face the inevitable heartbreak.
Congrats on this your 300th video! A Q&A video soon please!
IS THIS HER 300TH VID? WOW YOU'RE SO UPDATED :)
Really cool :) Could you maybe do one of your favorite/best coming-of-age books?
My top two favorites for this year have to be the Mara Dyer series and the Throne of Glass series. btw I LOVE THE RAINBOW BOOKSHELF
Christine! You should pick up a Jennifer Lynn Barnes book! I love them!!! They are fast and interesting reads and the characters are just so relatable and hilarious... Just ugh!! I love them! I recommend you read Every other day and the normals! They are seriously up on my fav lists. I think every other day is a stand alone, while "The Normals"- my fav of her books is part of a series. The next book is coming out next year! I'm so exited!
Anyway, you should check out Jennifer Lynn Barnes.
