“Even if you’re an adult you should read YA” - Looooove this line! Some young adult books still can teach us some things and is also nice sometimes to have a break from very dense reading. Reading is supposed to be fun and YAs are great for this!
@@lattequeen9175 I'm with you! I head for the YA book area in the library first to find any new /old hidden treasures and am always successful... And I'm 59.. 😅
Really sucks that we enforce this idea that YA books are for mainly girls from, and mainly 14 to 18 because they can be so fun and even interesting or insightful for so many other people. Coming from a 23yo guy who reads plenty of YA but really hates the looks you get in the library or the bookstore :)
"A good book makes you forget you're reading words on paper." YES!!! That right there is THE definition of the enjoyment of reading that I've never quite been able to put into words!!! 😃
13 books?? I was proud of myself for reading 2 😭😭. You always push me to do more plus you always have THE best book recs. So thanks you!! I’m starting with Alex approximately (it sounds super cute and I love suspense 😅❤️)
Shatter me order!! Shatter me Destroy me (Warner’s novella) Unravel me Fracture me (Adam’s novella) Ignite me Restore me Shadow me (Kenji’s novella) Defy me Reveal me (Kenji’s novella) Imagine me Believe me (Warner’s novella) The second trilogy will blow your mind!!!!
The Selection is SOOOO GOOD!!! Love that series. Read the Harry Potter series if you haven’t already. I didn’t care at all about HP and never even watched the movies before I read all of the books this year and I am now obsessed!! ☺️
I love all your book content!! and "the summer I turned pretty" series is so good! I recently read them and fell in love with all three books & the characters. Especially after taking a break from reading YA and focusing on new-adult books, it was such a fun book series to rediscover my love for YA books!
THE SHATTER ME SERIES IS SO GOOD after ignite me is restore me,defy me,imagine me I recommend reading believe me it’s in Warner pov and I thoroughly enjoyed it
Omg i reas 200 pgs and i just couldnt continue anymore😭like i was this 🤏close to getting into a book slump bec i was soo demotivated so rn idk if i should continue
I read the original shatter me trilogy, absolutely loved it and then read the next three books in the series, I am yet to read the novellas and they are next on my tbr but I would read the 6 chronological then the novellas because you have all the attachments to the characters and will devour the novellas. Hope this helps as guidance!
The Red Queen series is AMAZING! The second book is slow but the third and fourth book just get better and better-the characters are all written so well and I promise it’s worth it
these violent delights is SOOOO GOOOD 😭 especially the ending left me in such a shock but the sequel Our Violent Ends is soooooo sooo soooooo much better !!!! you HAVEEE to keep reading
Bro our violent ends was a book in which I went through all types of emotions, I feel like not much people give this sequel the hype it actually deserves coz it is damn good I literally sobbed at tge ending....
I read the whole shatter me series and would say there’s no need to read the novellas. I absolutely LOVED this series and had so much fun reading it and loved the plot twist and the romance!
I definitely agree I LOVE THE SERIES BUT- DEFINITELY read the novellas. It explains so much going on and especially the last novella and definitely the first, both Warner. I really hope to see you do more with the series!! I read the entire series in a week I’m hooked.
@@ellamaeturknett4863 the order took me a bit to understand but it goes: shatter me, destroy me, unravel me, fracture me, ignite me, restore me, shadow me, defy me, reveal me, imagine me and believe me
@@issysomething1077 on my opinion DEFINITELY there are more pieces you put together after reading the novelles and getting a better understanding with the characters. There are some scenes as well that we end up seeing from more than one POV bc of them. I rly just loved them and after destroy me I couldn’t stop. You can easily read them in one sitting i find
I’ve read The Summer I Turned Pretty series every summer since I was 11 and I seriously never get tired of it❤️ so glad you liked it! To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before is definitely not as good but it’s still a fun read.
Shatter Me Reading Order: 1. Shatter Me 1.5 Destroy Me (Novella) 2. Unravel Me 2.5 Fracture Me (Novella) 3. Ignite Me 4. Restore Me 4.5 Shadow Me (Novella) 5. Defy Me 5.5 Reveal Me (Novella) 6. Imagine Me 6.5 Believe Me (Novella) love the video haley!
“the one” is my FAVORITE book like oh my god it just it was amazing “break my heart break it a thousand times. it was only ever yours to break” AHHHH the character development was amazing and it’s just so amazing.
The Shatter Me series is SOOO GOOD and it gets even more crazier I love it sm, after Ignite Me it's Restore Me then Defy Me, and Imagine Me that's the main books but you should definitely read the novellas!
@@XxCJOxX From what I can remember Ignite Me is kinda spicy but it's just 1 chapter and I don't think there's much detail either but other than that the books are not spicy
Glass sword (second book of red queen series) is AMAZING. It’s faster paced with plot twists and I loved it so you should totally read it but the third one is a little slower but I still rlly liked it and the fourth is mind blowing
Ahh! I’ve been waiting for you to do a review on the summer I turned pretty series! it’s one of my favorites of all time. I love the romance/ fun lightheartedness blended with the more serious tones regarding coming of age and grief. You described it really well; the way you totally feel transported when you read the book. I WISH I could reread that series for the first time.
i would definitely read the rest of the shatter me series if you loved the characters. there’s a plot twist that is so good. for the novellas they go in between the books it’s not necessary to read them but if you want a bit of other characters povs. definitely read the last novella though believe me!
haleyyy i'm not a reader at all but i wanna say i've been enjoying your videos so much more ever since you started talking about books on your channels. it shows that you're so interested in reading and literature & letting people know about the books you've read. i know nothing about the books you're talking about but this is still so enjoyable to watch because you seem so passionate and excited about what you're talking about.
I read the ‘To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before’ series so fast! And the movies are equally as good. I’d love to see a vlog where you read that series and then watched the movies and reviewed everything at the end!
I feel like you would love the delirium trilogy, I can’t remember exactly what it’s about but I LOVED it in middle school and it kinda reminds me of the books in this video! I think it’s like YA dystopian romance
OMG I am so happy you liked the Shatter Me series (especially Ignite Me) because it was the first YA book series I read and I absolutely fell in love with the characters!! (Warner & Kenji have my heart). I would recommend reading the rest of the series especially if you want to see more of the world and the characters, my favourite out of the entire series will always be the 3rd one though! For reference though the order is: 1. Shatter Me 1.5. Destroy Me (novella from Warners pov - its really good I would recommend reading this a lot as I fell in love with him!) 2. Unravel Me 2.5. Fracture Me (novella from Adam's pov) 3. Ignite Me 4. Restore Me 4.5. Shadow Me (novella from Kenji's pov) 5. Defy Me 5.5. Reveal Me (novella from Kenji's pov) 6. Imagine Me 6.5. Believe Me (novella from Warner's pov - which just came out in November 2021!) Hope this helps! Also just want to say how much I love you & your videos & appreciate you so much!
Omg you absolutely NEED to read the novella destroy me (in the book unite me), which is Warner’s pov. ITS SO GOOD I fell in love with him because of that book tbh
oh my god shatter me series was my first series to read and they were amazing, you NEED to read restore me, ignite me and restore me were my favourite book during this series, i was so emotinal while reading restore me but it was the best experience of my life xx
For sure read the next three books in the Shatter Me series! The books really dive in Juliette's (and Warner's) backstory and it is JAW DROPPING. It's so so so good! I will say that I didn't rate any of the books higher than Ignite Me, but they are still so worth reading!!
Don’t forget “THE HEIR” it’s apart of the selection series highly recommend its purple themed so looks really good on the shelf next to the other books lol!
@@nancy54379 definitley not and how could it it’s like fifth version (I forgot exactly how many). By the heir the story was strung so far allong but Haley would like it if she liked the other ones
Haley!! You should read “tokyo ever after” it’s a YA novel that’s basically the plot of princess diaries but make it asian (it’s set in Japan) and bodyguard enemies to lovers. It’s literally so fun and cute, I feel like you would love it
Why am I obsessed with you girl?! I really love the way you speak and these book recs they r so popular, I really wanna try. Idk if you realized this but you just gave me ideas for my next read. THANKS HALEY! 😊❤
I read the first three of shatter me and loved Ignite Me. I was super excited that Tahereh Mafi was writing more books for the series, bought the fourth book and couldn't even finish it. It reminded me a lot of Shatter Me where the author is setting up the plot for the next couple of books.
Maybe, with the “candies” you were talking about that characters take to fall asleep (time stamp 4:30) are in the Matched series by ally condie? I read matched and I feel like I remember them having certain medicines for different things and sleeping might’ve been one of them. But it’s been a while since I’ve read it so idk.
I feel like you could like these books (no smut) : - Genuine Fraud by E. Lockhart - I’ll give you the sun by Jandy Nelson - Once and for all by Sarah Dessen - Sing! by Vivi Green - The Lunar Chronicles series (6-7 books) by Marissa Meyer
Ugh the Selection Series is indeed SO nostalgic. I read it multiple multiple times in middle school. And I don’t need to reread it like, ever. Because I’ve read it so many times. And every time I go into a book store, I have to decide if I should buy the series. I always say no
I really enjoyed Red Queen but I didn’t like Glass Sword and King’s Cage as much. I was struggling to finish King’s Cage. I haven’t read War Storm yet but I’m not super excited about it
Yes!!! The second book in the summer I turned pretty wrecked me. I also didn't expect that it would be so sad - i definitely bawled while reading the entire second book!!
I love youre book reconmendations so much! It has really made me get out of my comfort zone when it comes to reading, which helped me discover some of my favorite books!
So the book where she takes the pills to sleep… I think you might be thinking of the Matched trilogy…. Someone might have already said this but I think it’s Matched!
you should definitely read to all the boys i’ve loved before, it’s really good i just finished the series and i felt like i was laura jean. and the romance is sooooooooo good!!! i got my friend group to read it and now we are found a movie night to watch all of the movies. i love your content btw 😍
Hey Haley! I love your book videos. I would love to see a video of you reading all you dnf's that would be interesting to see if you actually are interested in those books and if you regret at all not finishing them. I love your videos!!
I highly recommend the novella Destroy Me! It takes place between Shatter Me and Unravel Me and is from Warner’s pov. It gives really interesting insight into his character!
i almost didn't finish reading 'these violent delights' because of a similar reason, but i gotta say you should finish it! the latter part gets better. i also like its take on the enemies-to-lovers trope SOOO
I'm reading 'The Summer I turned pretty' series. On the second book currently and yeah actually the grief was absolutely not expected 😭 I'm very emotional... I'm literally balling my eyes out...
read all the main books (restore me, defy me and imagine me) and then read the novellas because that is what i did and i felt the connection to the characters so much more!!!
order to read shatter me: shatter me destroy me (novella) unravel me fracture me (novella) ignite me restore me shadow me (novella) defy me reveal me (novella) imagine me believe me (novella) destroy me and fracture me come in a bundle called unite me and shadow me and reveal me come in a bundle called find me. the novellas are optional however i would really recommend reading them as their only around a hundred pages per novella and really give you a proper perspective of the series
if you liked the summer I turned pretty you should read ‘along for the ride’ by Sarah Dessen! It’s summer vibes and it’s about two insomniacs trying to complete the main characters bucket list of things she missed out on as a kid!
1. Today tonight tomorrow 0:35 Ending is "down and dirty but young adult, but feels like the author was forced to make" and feels "cringy" and "better without". Other than that, a possible 4.5. 2. 2:28 Alex approximately. Two teenagers meet online and dont know each other irl but try to meet up without knowing each others names or looks. 4-4.5 stars. 3. 3:15 these violent delights "romeo and Juliet retelling. People mysteriously dying. China." 3.5 stars (i think?) 4. 4:14 the selection. Batchelorett with prince of dystopian world. 5 stars. Also second book included, which was 4 stars. Third book was 5 stars. Last third sped up and amazing. 5. 6:00 shatter me. Dystopian novel. Main character kills anyone who touches her. Yall im sorry im out of time i cant do more ;-; hope this little bit helps!
It took a while for me to get intoThese Violent Delights, but the ending is so so good, the second book (Our Violent Ends) is even better. You should definitely keep reading!
I read the summer I turned pretty series in one week because i loved it so much! This is coming from someone who’s never been a reader and has always told myself I don’t have enough time to read. I started it because i saw the trailer for the show on May 5th and thought I’d give the series a shot, and i was not disappointed!! My favorite part about it was that it didn’t feel like a love triangle to me, it just truly felt like it was Belly’s life. And i liked that there was so much devastation and emotion because that’s what really does it for me in movies, tv shows, and apparently books! The more they make me feel, the more I enjoy them!
I love Jenny Han!! She is so under rated. I prefer the To All the Boys series tbh (which I am re-reading atm hehe) because I feel like her writing style kinda developed idk I was just more immersed in that series than the Summer I turned pretty. The Summer I turned pretty series is more realistic I feel like, but Lara Jean in To All the Boys I find is more relatable! :)

I read the folk of the air trilogy because of you, THANKYOU! Got through it in like 3 days and I am so sad it is over ♡

The selection is honestly my fav series - it’s my comfort book and i love it sm and Maxon and America omg they have my heart-
Why am I obsessed with you girl?! I really love the way you speak and these book recs they r so popular, I really wanna try. Idk if you realized this but you just gave me ideas for my next read. THANKS HALEY! 😊❤
I read the first three of shatter me and loved Ignite Me. I was super excited that Tahereh Mafi was writing more books for the series, bought the fourth book and couldn't even finish it. It reminded me a lot of Shatter Me where the author is setting up the plot for the next couple of books.
Maybe, with the “candies” you were talking about that characters take to fall asleep (time stamp 4:30) are in the Matched series by ally condie? I read matched and I feel like I remember them having certain medicines for different things and sleeping might’ve been one of them. But it’s been a while since I’ve read it so idk.
I feel like you could like these books (no smut) :
- Genuine Fraud by E. Lockhart
- I’ll give you the sun by Jandy Nelson
- Once and for all by Sarah Dessen
- Sing! by Vivi Green
- The Lunar Chronicles series (6-7 books) by Marissa Meyer
Recently read Alex, Approximately and I absolutely adored it! Such a fun read ahhhhh still fangirling over some of the scenes 😭
Ugh the Selection Series is indeed SO nostalgic. I read it multiple multiple times in middle school. And I don’t need to reread it like, ever. Because I’ve read it so many times. And every time I go into a book store, I have to decide if I should buy the series. I always say no
I was planning to buy it , should I ?
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who felt that exact way with Red Queen. Everyone I know besides me loves it 😅
No because I hated the book but I have all the books in the series so I feel like I have to read them all now 😭 I blame booktok for overselling it
Red Queen just felt so slow to me
I really enjoyed Red Queen but I didn’t like Glass Sword and King’s Cage as much. I was struggling to finish King’s Cage. I haven’t read War Storm yet but I’m not super excited about it
I think you would love the Dance of Thieves duology!! It's YA fantasy enemies to lovers with really interesting politics and amazing characters!
Yes!!! The second book in the summer I turned pretty wrecked me. I also didn't expect that it would be so sad - i definitely bawled while reading the entire second book!!
I love youre book reconmendations so much! It has really made me get out of my comfort zone when it comes to reading, which helped me discover some of my favorite books!
So the book where she takes the pills to sleep… I think you might be thinking of the Matched trilogy…. Someone might have already said this but I think it’s Matched!
yes I instantly thought of Matched!!!!
I loved matched
Yes that’s what I thought!
omggggg i love shatter me and the selection but i would recommend the flawed series
2 videos in a week! I am so hyped!!!!! I just know this video is going to be amazing 👏 😍
The Red Queen is actually a distopien book series because in the broken throne it shows a map and it is America in the future
you should definitely read to all the boys i’ve loved before, it’s really good i just finished the series and i felt like i was laura jean. and the romance is sooooooooo good!!! i got my friend group to read it and now we are found a movie night to watch all of the movies. i love your content btw 😍
Hey Haley! I love your book videos. I would love to see a video of you reading all you dnf's that would be interesting to see if you actually are interested in those books and if you regret at all not finishing them. I love your videos!!
You should read the school for good and evil series it's my favorite!❤
I highly recommend the novella Destroy Me! It takes place between Shatter Me and Unravel Me and is from Warner’s pov. It gives really interesting insight into his character!
never stop making book videos these are my favorite to watch
Hayley’s book vidoes are my safe space! Love this! 💗
You book recommendation videos are the only thing that keeps me going❤
i almost didn't finish reading 'these violent delights' because of a similar reason, but i gotta say you should finish it! the latter part gets better. i also like its take on the enemies-to-lovers trope SOOO
omg i read the selection in middle school too its always a great comfort series
you NEED to continue red queen omgg it’s so good 😮💨💞💞
I'm reading 'The Summer I turned pretty' series. On the second book currently and yeah actually the grief was absolutely not expected 😭 I'm very emotional... I'm literally balling my eyes out...
the sequel to these violent delights was SO GOOD i thought the first book was slow but the second half of the book was really good
Your book videos gives me life 😌
read all the main books (restore me, defy me and imagine me) and then read the novellas because that is what i did and i felt the connection to the characters so much more!!!
the selection series is SOOOOO GOOD AAHHH
I LOVED "THESE VIOLENT DELIGHTS"!!! ❤
You know I LOVE the book vids! Those books are sooooooooooooooooooo gooooood! KEEP UP THE BOOK CONTENT! Ly
order to read shatter me:
shatter me
destroy me (novella)
unravel me
fracture me (novella)
ignite me
restore me
shadow me (novella)
defy me
reveal me (novella)
imagine me
believe me (novella)
destroy me and fracture me come in a bundle called unite me and shadow me and reveal me come in a bundle called find me. the novellas are optional however i would really recommend reading them as their only around a hundred pages per novella and really give you a proper perspective of the series
I didn’t know if I should read The Selection but now I’m totally going to!! Thanks Haley for helping me decide
u really be giving us 2 book videos in one week - we deserved this because ?????? aaaaah ily
if you liked the summer I turned pretty you should read ‘along for the ride’ by Sarah Dessen! It’s summer vibes and it’s about two insomniacs trying to complete the main characters bucket list of things she missed out on as a kid!
reading the 2nd tsitp book literally made me want to just give every character a hug
1. Today tonight tomorrow 0:35
Ending is "down and dirty but young adult, but feels like the author was forced to make" and feels "cringy" and "better without". Other than that, a possible 4.5.
2. 2:28 Alex approximately. Two teenagers meet online and dont know each other irl but try to meet up without knowing each others names or looks. 4-4.5 stars.
3. 3:15 these violent delights "romeo and Juliet retelling. People mysteriously dying. China." 3.5 stars (i think?)
4. 4:14 the selection. Batchelorett with prince of dystopian world. 5 stars. Also second book included, which was 4 stars. Third book was 5 stars. Last third sped up and amazing.
5. 6:00 shatter me. Dystopian novel. Main character kills anyone who touches her.
Yall im sorry im out of time i cant do more ;-; hope this little bit helps!
It took a while for me to get intoThese Violent Delights, but the ending is so so good, the second book (Our Violent Ends) is even better. You should definitely keep reading!
you included 2 of my favorite series in here, I'd give anything to go back and reread shatter me and the selection for the first time again.
I read the summer I turned pretty series in one week because i loved it so much! This is coming from someone who’s never been a reader and has always told myself I don’t have enough time to read. I started it because i saw the trailer for the show on May 5th and thought I’d give the series a shot, and i was not disappointed!! My favorite part about it was that it didn’t feel like a love triangle to me, it just truly felt like it was Belly’s life. And i liked that there was so much devastation and emotion because that’s what really does it for me in movies, tv shows, and apparently books! The more they make me feel, the more I enjoy them!
please please read all the bright places next !! it’s my favorite book and i really want to see what you think !
Red Queen is sooo good. Finish it. My fav series.
THE SUMMER I TURNED PRETTY IS LITERALLY MY FAVORITE SERIES EVER AND I READ IT EVER SUMMER
i'm obsessed with your videos
I love Jenny Han!! She is so under rated. I prefer the To All the Boys series tbh (which I am re-reading atm hehe) because I feel like her writing style kinda developed idk I was just more immersed in that series than the Summer I turned pretty. The Summer I turned pretty series is more realistic I feel like, but Lara Jean in To All the Boys I find is more relatable! :)
Agreee
literally every book on my book list is from one of ur videos i just love
