I saved your video for today. I had some tests at the hospital with the possibility of something really serious. All is well and knowing I had a video of your friendly, happy, funny caring self to come home to -regardless of the outcome-helped me breathe through the tests. Thank you for being you and sharing yourself with us!🌻
You're literally describing so many of my complaints with romances - which I LOVE!! (the genre. And the fact that you're talking about it). Give me stakes, give me character development, realistic falling in love, conflict. In other words, an actual story 😂 Also, I cannot stand when characters start talking treacly, sickly sweet, lovey dovey nonsense once they express their feelings for each other.
👻🏚 i truly look forward to talking me time for however long your vlog is. No interrupting, no kids, no phone calls.... i have been doing really good keeping that current for myself. I have coffee, snackies and sit in my blanket nest.. This week has been brutal for me with my chronic illnesses.. my hip has between out of place for far to long after sleeping wrong.. :( plus we just passed my dad's birthday(the 3rd without him) which was so much harder then expected... but thank you. You are a bright spot in my week. I think we would of been friends if we lived local but i am so thankful you have put yourself out here. It means i have people like me on in internet i can relate to!!
I just wanted to let you know that your vlogs are always the perfect company for me to actually get some tasks done around my home. Idk what it is but you break me out of my task paralysis (#adhdlife) and it’s really soothing too. So thank you 💜
I felt the same about raiders!!! I literally skipped everything except the treasure stuff and that was maybe a fifth of the book. So glad I put it back on the shelf at Barnes and got it from the library.
🏡👻 as a fellow anxious girly who loves horrors/thrillers… big mood to what you said about having a safe outlet for the anxious feelings and having them come to a conclusion/being solved. Definitely adding this one to my TBR
When I read The September House in September I knew right away you would probably like it! I loved it and wished I would’ve done the audio. Still a good book and loved the characters.
I didn’t 😭 2023 was an eh year so I didn’t feel like making that video tbh. The fantasy I’d recommend from it would be red riding, the jasad heir, and this woven kingdom!
28:53 i could not get over the barney reference at the beginning. that was enough for me to say ohhhkayyy. this book is not for me 😂 not that i’m glad this wasn’t your fav. but i’m glad this was not a fav 😂
👻🏚👻LOVED September House, cozy horror is one of my favorites, and September is my bday month so I knew it was for me! Hoping someone would do a fancy edition.
I FINALLY had my first really good book for the year. Shadows of You by Catherine Cowles (romantic suspense). I’m more than half way done with a mystery called Secrets of Grady by JL Hyde. You have to read Grady Lake first but her books are like 200 pages so they are quick. But sooooo good. Romances for me have been quite Meh for the most part the last few months.
👻🏚️ I haven’t read The September House yet, but I’m on a wait list for the audiobook on Libby 🤞🏻so excited! Love your vlogs! 🎉 I don’t you if it would be in your willhouse but have you read Killers of a Certain Age by Deanna Raybourn They are all older ladies, there are flashbacks to their younger days but it was so good! They kick butt 😅 Happy reading all! 📚
@@oliviareadsalatte yes! I’m so glad you have read it! It was so good! Gave me Golden Girl Vibes 😄 the whole time I was reading, their characters off the show just kept popping up in my head haha Ugh and I just realized my earlier comment is missing words … 😑 😩
Random question - does your Kinde make it difficult to sleep at night? I have an older Kindle and I noticed I struggled falling asleep if I read it at night. I'm wondering if the newer Kindles address the blue light issue.
i’ve recently decided you’re the funniest person alive just thought you should know
did everyone else die 👁️👁️
jk jk thank u 🫢

Veronica Speedwell is the superior series - I honestly think I became obsessed with the em because of you. ♥️👻👻
It’s so good!!!!
I’ve been burned by the promise “it’s like The Mummy” many times. 😒 Lies. My quest for such a book continues.
The one Mummy themed book that I liked is the one by Anne Rice. No adventure though. Just a cool mummy story.
"No, thank you. Where's Casper?" 😂👻🏡
I love getting a notification that a new blog is up. They always make my day.
Yay! Thank you! 🫶🏻
I love long vlogs from you I love putting your videos on and reading it’s like reading with a bestie on face time lol
Awh thank you!
🏠👻 I love these new releases vlog! Just hearing you talk about books makes me happy!
Love your long videos. They are so comforting to have on and I go about my day ❤
Okay, you've made me want to read September House now.
I was so excited to see you read The September House! It’s currently my favorite read of 2024! 👻 🏠
The September house is one of my favourite books of last year! So happy you loved it. I can't wait to see what she will write next! 😍😍🥰🥰
I felt the same about raiders!!! I literally skipped everything except the treasure stuff and that was maybe a fifth of the book. So glad I put it back on the shelf at Barnes and got it from the library.
Same!

It was so so good! I hope her next books have similar vibes
OMg Olivia you’re a GENIUS. The video game scores for fantasy??? You’re so smart omg
Also I just need you to know I talk to Ginger in the same baby voice through the screen that my fur children get and I think that’s hilarious
I loved The September House too!
🏠👻
🏠👻 Im the same, I love a cozy mystery with an older MC
I have two KU (Kindle Unlimited) titles to recommend: Detective Stories -Scarlet and Grace's Story.
Great vlog. ⛄❄️☕📚
I am drinking my water, in fact I just poured some over me!

It was the perfect horror!
I just got the September house from my library
I hope you enjoy!
@@oliviareadsalatte do you like the book
Ma’am……did you ever do a favorites of 2023? I need your fantasy recommendations. I’m in a thriller slump and only want fantasy.
I didn’t 😭 2023 was an eh year so I didn’t feel like making that video tbh. The fantasy I’d recommend from it would be red riding, the jasad heir, and this woven kingdom!
Yes red rising

I want a special edition too omg
Just picked up The September House from my library perfect timing😊

Ivy Malone series by Lorena McCourtney are very good cozy mysteries

I’ll need to check it out!
Raiders of the lost heart sounds so cute and that sucks it wasn’t great🥹
I just went to add The Night of Storms to my Libby holds… turns out I already have it held. No idea when I added it. 😅
No shame for still having your tree up. We just took ours down last night, lol. Once we left it up until mid March.
Hahahah I’m getting it down this weekend. But of course I get sick before I was going to this past weekend 🤣
👻🏚️ I haven’t read The September House yet, but I’m on a wait list for the audiobook on Libby 🤞🏻so excited! Love your vlogs! 🎉

I absolutely loved that book!

Ugh and I just realized my earlier comment is missing words … 😑 😩
Totally agree about The Fury!! Ultimately I gave it 3 or 3 1/2 stars. I loved The Silent Patient and really enjoyed The Maidens. This…. Not so much
I agree! If was very meh
romance reader here and Raiders of the Lost Heart is my worst book of the year so far😅
Are you going to read bride by Ali hazelwood?
Yes!
😂Jake is the best reading buddy!!!!
Truly 😭🫶🏻

No, the newer Paperwhite doesn’t have blue light!
oh that's good news. thanks!@@oliviareadsalatte

As an archaeology tech, would I like raiders of the lost heart or would I just be very annoyed lol

I hated the Fury. I think it is the worst of his books. I hated all the reveals and then Ha! Psych! Just like you said, he thought he was so clever.
