Fantasy is good for the creative mind. It’s a wonderful escape. The.authors in this genre are incredibly intelligent and clever.
I totally hate those negative opinions about fantasy. Who has de right to decide what's literature and what's not? And you need an incredible mind to write them. It's a very creative work
exactly!! people need to value creativity more😤
I loved hanging out with you for almost an hour! The cozy and aesthetic vibes in this video were amazing!
oh thank you so much!!🥰🫶🏻 thank you for hanging out with me
Whenever I go to Barnes&Noble near me, the fantasy and sci-fi section always has the most people in it and it makes me so happy ❤
oh that's amazing! i think i always see the most people in either ya or the fantasy section as well and i love it!
This totally made my day 🩷📚✨️
That sounds like such a cool readathon and I always envy how many books you can read in a week for those!
it's called i have no life bahahaha
I'm a horror reader and I feel looked down on as well if someone ask what's my fave genre is. Horror can be deep and give an impact as welll It's not all about the shock factor. 😅
i just feel like people who make those types of comments don't read the type of books they look down on, making their opinion invalid
The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches is such a good read ^_^ because of that book I plan on reading more Witch books in the future. I chose Wicked Fox to read for asian readathon and was also working on my reading journal while watching your video ^-^.
so glad you also loved the very secret society of irregular witches, and that sounds so lovely! i always throw on reading vlogs when i work on my journal as well!
“The very secret society of irregular witches” was one of my favourite books in 2022. 😍 As always happy to have a long vlog from you and Mogget was watching with me, but he would like to get more cat’s content 😂
yesss so glad mogget also got to watch haha🫶🏻😭 definitely will work on including more cat content just for him
The raining scene gave such cozy cottage core vibes I loved it!!! I think our definition of book buying ban is a little different cause I was also on a book buying ban in may and yet I still ended up buying two books.😃
thank you! i love the clips i ended up getting of the rain!! and honestly i don't think our definitions of a book buying ban are that different because i, also, always end up buying books too😭
I love your reading vlogs so much, it's so comforting 💗☺️
I recently just finished yelloface by r.f. Kuang, and holy fuck, it was incredible! I didn't expect this plot line as I didn't do too much research into what it was about and to be honest I'm glad I didn't- it was so faced paced and thrilling, you need to read it!
I finished it today - it was the best book of 2023 so far for me!
Thanks for the recommendation!
I’m so glad you read Heart of the Sun Warrior! I needed to hear your thoughts because I have some STRONG OPINIONS for this book lol.
Ngl the main character is the most indecisive person ever. P.S. I also agree with you on the love triangle 😅 (still a little triggered on how the book ends)
i'm just glad to see i'm not alone in my thoughts on the book😭 it was so disappointing, so sorry we had to go though that😢
I always love having a new Katie video to look forward to at the beginning of the week! 💙✨
always love having your comments to look forward to, thank you!!💙✨
astonishing colour of after is my fav book, and literally no one has heard of it. so nice to see it 🫶🏼🥰
7:26 We actually say that in Arabic ! when you greet someone you would say شلونك/ج؟ (shlonak/shlonich), which literally translates to what is your color? as in how are you!
oh that's so lovely!! thank you for telling me, i love that!!
Great vlog! I bought many new mangas in the past couple months can't wait to read them
this made my day. thank you 💗
🎃 I’ve been reading Agatha Christie books for the past 2 years in between fantasy books. She’s so clever with her plots and characters. Not sure Halloween Party will be a 5 star for you as it wasn’t for me. But I consider her books comfort reads at this point which is ironic because they’re all about murder lol. I’d still read many of them again even though they were not 5 star rated on the first read. Hope your summer is fun and relaxing !!!
i'm interested to see what i end up thinking of it, out of curiosity what's your favorite agatha christie? and i definitely see why her books are comfort reads for you though! and thank you!!🫶🏻💗
yessss, i love your vlogs gosh, i honestly wait for you to post
ahh thank you so much!!🥹
I have the exact same editions of Anne of green gables. they kind of make a pastel rainbow on a bookshelf and it looks so pretty.
you are literally so pretty and this made my day 💓💓💓
oh my gosh thank you so much!!💗🥺
Ahhh I love your vlogs!❤
omg the quality is amazing Katie!! 🤍🌷
ah thank you!!!🫶🏻💗🥺
Fantasy books are usually the hardest to read conceptually and definitely grammatically which I think is why most people don’t read fantasy books. I said what I said!!!!!
I recently read the very secret society of irregular witches and I LOVED IT SO SO SO MUCH am so glad you loved it too
it was absolutely stunning, so glad you loved it as well!!💙💛
obsessed with your videos ! 😭🫶🏽
thank you!!!🖤😭
I gave some of those Anne of Green Gables editions to my mom for Mother’s Day! I love the covers, it makes me want to get them for myself as well haha
Yay! Another vlog from Katie. ❤ You're one of my favorite Booktubers
thank you so much!!!🥺🫶🏻✨
@@katieisreading you're very welcome
waiting for the bookshelf tour !
Ahh those mass market paperbacks of the Anne series look so prettyyy!🤩 Also the vibe in your vlogs is just stunning!❤
yess, i love them so much!!! and thank you!🥺🖤
Cass and Katie uploading a video at the same time 👀. Slay girls! Love these long vlogs! You should try to make an hour long video maybe once a week? just an idea..
I just read The Left Hand of Darkness and it was so good!! It's really slow and takes a lot of brain power but the social commentary and world building is incredible
Read the first 10 volumes of Yona and loved them. Want to start collecting the series now. Love the vlog what you on repeat all the time. Made my day when I am not feeling well
yesss!! so glad you're loving yona💗 and thank you so much!!! hope you're feeling better now!
@@katieisreading I am feeling better now thanks so much. I am enjoying Yona and I have the next 10 volumes on hold at my library hoping to pick them up today at somepoint
Would you please make a video talking about the Anne series? I LOVE that series, and I would love to hear what you thought about them. 🫶🥺
Hey! I am back in ur comment section!! Yay an other video so excited!!!!! Love it vids!!
Loved the vlog and now that you've read THE ASTONISHING COLOUR OF AFTER , I think it's finally time for me to pick it up. 🤧😂💗
yesss omg it's SO good, i hope you love it!💜💗
can we get a reading journal tour??? it looks amazing and i’m really interested because i want to start my own too
i'll be doing a mid year flip through at the beginning of july actually!!
Congrats on your graduation!! 🥰
thank you so much!!🥰
If you could see the sun is a good contemporary/fantasy that sounds like you would love from your descriptions of the astonishing colour of after.
I lovedd The Astonishing Color of After and The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches! also your new camera quality is STUNNING
they were both stunning reads so i see why you also loved them, and thank you jan!!🖤
The Astonishing Color of After was one of my sister's favorite books. The author has another book that looks amazing too. Looking forward to your vlogs on Mondays/ Tuesdays. Enjoy the break before graduate school.
thank you so much!!🫶🏻
your shirt matches your eyes so well 😍
cant wait to watch
🫶🏻🥺🖤 thank you
same thing happened to me!! someone asked what books I read, I said fantasy and they gave me the eyebrows and were like ooo okayyy... i was like what do you think fantasy is HAHA
that's so weird ahaha, what is wrong with people😖😡
Love your cat 🐈⬛ ❤
i remember when katie said that she couldn’t afford much volumes of yawn of the dawn and now she can’t stop buying them, you a mood katie hahahha i love you
in my defense i don't even own half of the volumes haha, there's still no way i can collect the entire series but i definitely ended up buying more volumes than i was originally planning too oops😳
Quick question off topic from books… but I love your green heart toggle necklace and was wondering where you got it from? I’ve seen it in so many videos and I’m invested to find it lol
On the other hand, I brought up Twilight and Harry Potter in my job interview and I got the job😂
but ugh I hate that, honestly I feel like fantasy takes so much more brain power
Wow how could you not love fantasy i love fantasy one of my favorite genres 😊
honestly!!
that "at least you admit it" comment made my jaw drop
i was stunned at the time and am still stunned now😤
Try The Moon and its Night
omg that man was so rude and of course it'd be A Man who'd say something like that. i'm so sorry you had to go through that experience.
tbh i don't read fantasy because i'm too dumb to understand all the world building that fantasy authors do ;_________; like, people say reading classics is difficult, but have they ever read a high fantasy novel? i don't think so.
i was very unsurprised it was a man who said that to me😡 and honestly feel that, nothing makes me feel more inadequate that a complex adult fantasy world😳
Since you really liked The astonishing color of after and having in mind that you were talking about the magical realism of her grief presenting physically I reckon you should read How it feels to float by Helena Fox. It has a very similar theme and it does contain some heavy topics so if you want to check out the trigger warnings go ahead. But in my opinion it’s best to go in blind, it absolutely shattered my heart 😢❤ one of my faves of 2022
oh okay i will definitely have to check it out when i'm in the mood to be emotional😢 but thank you so much for the recommendation, so glad it was one of your favs of last year!
So far in my life I've never really encountered somebody that looked down on me for reading fantasy. To be fair, I don't talk to many people in real life about my reading habits but still. I never realised that I can count myself lucky for not yet having had conversations like the one you described. I find it very sad that people sort of "belittle" a literary genre like that. I believe that no genre is better than any other because it all comes down to personal tastes in the end. Besides, I think writing fantasy must take so much brain power and imagination. I mean, the worlds and magic systems some authors create from scratch? I don't think I could do that. (Granted, I don't think I could write a book at all but a fantasy book much less)
Good vlog
❤❤❤
Omg I just read the astonishing color of after like two days ago Lmaooo
Could you show the studi glibly spread? I would love to try something similar
i'll be showing it in my mid year flip through that will be coming out at the beginning of july!
Yona of the dawn is my obsession ! I discoverd this manga last month and i to read each book !
Where did you watch the anime ?
Little recommandation if you love the found family troppe in mangas : frieren and attack of titans ( master chief)
ah so glad you also love yona!!🫶🏻 it's my current obsession as well!!! and i watched the anime on hulu!
❤❤

😂 she chose the wrong one - always annoying when the love triangle doesn't go the way you want
honestly😤😤 i was about to riot
Hey Katie
No hate but I hoped people would have read south Asian books for this readathon because they are so underrated
Could you do a challenge to read south Asian books( Indian sri Lankan Nepalese and more)
I would look forward to it 😊
i'm also hoping people read south asian books for this readathon! the very secret society of irregular witches is written by an indian author i believe and it was so lovely, i will definitely be checking out more books from south asian authors :)
@@katieisreading I'm sure you would love south Asian books. They are a totally different world
Do you have a favorite South Asian book?
@@lisahutcherson5897 I love reading books by r.k. Narayan and sudha Murthy
And if you want to read Indian mythology Amish books are best
Also I recently read the hidden hindu which became my instant favourite
No bathroom b-roll? 🚽 I feel cheated.
next vlog i'll include the bathtub cleaning process don't worry
@@katieisreading thank you, as you should
If you'd like to read more agatha christie you might actually like " the murder of roger ackroyd"
Yellowface?!!! Where is she?
Job Interview Guy sounds very unpleasant. 🤡 I've known *too many* people who think that reading anything but non-fiction is a "waste of time." Please keep those people far away from me 😂😭
BTW, the video looks (extraordinarily) brilliant 😤🤌 Why are your vlogs always so stunning?!
job interview guy was a clown😡 i just think people should let other people read what they want.. which seems like a simple concept but for some people it clearly isn't😤 and thank you!!!😭🫶🏻
This whole vlog was beautifull the aesthetic inlove❤❤
thank you so much adele!!
