@pickensofthelitter. That pop-in of Daniel was so funny 😂 especially with tiny Gavin
🕊@redeyeslazer
@melissa07183 🙏
@mosimms79 I love Daniel Greene lol love how he popped in. I haven’t read his books yet but would love to!!!! Thanks for a chance. You’re awesome Gavin!!!
@pokojjamie thanks so much for the opportunity to win!! 😊
Ohhhh, phew, in that house. I can work with that 😅
Hehehe
I was like nooooooo 😮I got that mini panic flutter in my heart!!
@@GavinReadsItAll Google is giving me the option to translate this comment into English, but when I do it's exactly the same...
In reality, we should all be on a book buying ban until we read all the unread books we already own 🙈🙉🙊
Best part? Having a tiny gavin popping up at the bottom of the video 😂
The Daniel popup part was so funny loved it. 😂 Also so me if my cats make noise I need to check if they are oke and if they are oke I'll grumble a bit to the wall, about them making noise and making me jump etc. 😂
If and when you want to check out a horror subscription again the Abominable book box is good!
The Andy Weir set broke my heart with the price because I adored those books and special editions of that collection just don't exist anywhere else. It deserves them allllll
Best of luck with finding a new apartment and I'm looking forward to a potential unhaul before the move :- D
Michael Ende's last name sounds more like end-uh ^^
I wish Momo would be getting as much recognition as The Neverending Story because it's my favorite book of his and outside of Germany seriously underrated :((
Great haul Gav! It’s so hard not buying books, but you can do it!!
I am so excited that you want to read The Neverending Story, it is one of my favourite books ever! Momo is another beautiful book from the same author.
And Happy belated birthday, Gavin! We are birthday twins! 😊
Given your predisposition for acquisition (which I love watching), we knew this day would come
Gavin, I love you! You never fail to make me smile and laugh =)
So many gorgeous books 😍 good luck with the move!
I have not read To Gaze Upon Wicked Gods but I've seen several in depth reviews about it and I would encourage you to familiarise yourself with the historical context and the very real story of Unit 731 before reading it, so you can properly judge for yourself how you feel about it! I would also very much recommend catherineannechiang's video on it, for anyone who has already read it/doesn't want to read it.
Yayy I go so many book recommendations now!!
Loved seeing the DG Cameo.
I love both your's and Daniel's channels!
What a haul! Thanks so much for the kind words about the Mina books. I really appreciate your support!
That Rachel Price edition is BEAUTIFUL! I loved the book! ✨
Good luck with the move Gav 💛
I'll Be Gone in the Dark was also my first True Crime book! I jumped right into the genre after that one.
I think you'll love Cloud Atlas
I can't wait for your read of Naruto!
To Gaze Upon Wicked Gods really toed the line on colonizer romance for me. There were times when it didn't feel that way, and then there were other times that it did feel that way. And by the ending? Yikes. Once you know what he's been doing for his family, then it's just so hard to see it as anything else. He would need a serious redemption arc for him to be acceptable, and even then - it doesn't change the aftertaste once you're done reading the book.
Omg i cannot wait for my Neon Ghost to arrive from thr Kickstarter, good luck to all entering the giveaway. I also need to start skipping and/or cancelling a few of my book boxes but FOMO is real!
23:30 that edition of The Martian is so STUNNING I gasped 🤯😍
Hope you love Cloud Atlas. One of my all time favorite books, I also purchased the Waterstone's edition.
I decided to rewrite this comment lol. I've read similar reviews and seen some interesting conversations about To Gaze Upon Wicked Gods. It definitely seems like a conversation worth having about romances like this. Since I haven't finished the book yet, I can't give my personal opinions on it. However, I do think I would like to read a historical account of the atrocities that are referenced in both this book and the Poppy Wars. I do have some knowledge about that time period in Chinese history, but I feel like my knowledge is lacking to have a really thorough conversation about it (especially being someone who is not ethnically Chinese). Since I have the book from Illumicrate, I do think I will finish it so I can have a better opinion (and decide if I would want to continue the series). But I am also going to do some deep diving to find some non-fiction about the time period.
Anyway, long post... but here's my insta handle @zeccola
First time I'm seeing a special edition of The Martian and it's STUNNING omg. 😍 devastated to have missed that.
Also excited for the last murder at the end of the world
1.5 stars for Murder Road? Woooooow. I read it last week and was surprised by how much I liked it because of the reviews I've heard so far. Maybe I read a different book. It's a nice lie I can tell myself. I do agree with the Evernight sub box though. I also read The Invocations which I enjoyed but it wasn't super scary or anything, which is what I thought the box was supposed to be. That being said, I'm sad I didn't have the box so I could get that special edition because she is STUNNING. Like, I'll keep an okay book if she has a pretty cover. Because as always, book reading and book collecting are two different hobbies.
I wish you all the best for saving up money and new home hunting! We'd love to see you in a new place with a garden for the kitties!
I've lived in a place that was slowly sucking the life out of me and I'm still not at the end of the moving journey but I'm at a temporary place and man, what a change for my mental health! I really hope you'll manage a move. Though please please look into making a catio. I have a balcony with a net and my cats are happy and safe. Your cats will be able to escape from the garden with just a fence.
You got so many beautiful books😊
Good luck, Gav :D
I love David Copperfield! One of my favourites (and Dickens' favourite!)
I’ve unhauled all my Evernight books so far! Still to read murder road!
Good luck with the viewings! You got this
I just got Tempest and Tea and can't wait to get into it! If you like cozy kind of books, Nancy Warren's "Vampire Knitting Club" is so cute. I've never liked mystery books really, but these are good, not too long, and cozy with vampires lol. I just finished the Argonaut's Lass by Jim Butcher, a sci-fi, steampunkish, fantasy series. A great read, but quite hefty.
I’m also excited for The Last Murder at the End of the World!!! I love the cover so much too I hope it’s good! 👏
Cloud Atlas is really really good, i read it about a decade ago and I think about it all the time. It's about a soul going through the ages and the different experiences of that soul, identified by a uniquely shaped birthmark, I believe a star.
The only thing I will say is that the middle section of the book is a bit of a push because the language is weird/hard because of all the apostrophes used and just the language in general. But if you stick with it, it's really rewarding.
You should do one of those read it or unhaul it videos to unhaul and sell some books to fund the new house! Maybe reading special editions you don’t have high hopes for ect.
I personally really enjoyed The re-appearance of Rachel Price, and hopefully you do as well!
Beastly beauty is one we have in common! Amy McCaw is so lovely and I really enjoyed the first book in the mina series! Is it just me or are the skandar books coming out so fast? I really enjoyed book 1 so far. And yay for beautiful classics :) Those are gorgeous. That is such a gorgeous edition of the martian D: Hopefully you'll like evocation more... I am also on the fence on cosy fantasy as well. I think my recommendation for you is to listen to the audio of can't spell treason without tea.
If you're looking for a horror sub box Twisted Retreat is really neat they have just book or book + merch options. The editions are all so pretty, and they pick a lot of dif types of horror since the genre is so expansive. Obvi after the new house thing is sorted, also good luck on the hunt may you find the perfect fit!!!!
I need more tiny Gavin 😂😂
The Virtue Season... I might just pick that one up. Really? Dystopia meets Bridgerton!
Going to watch this while I wait for my face mask to do its thing and also grab some paper to write down any interesting books!
I just finished this phenomenal new book of fairy tales entitled Sillies, Fancies, and Trifles - it was phenomenal and I think you'd love it. It would go with the lovely recommendations here. Keep up the beautiful videos :)
If you're wanting more sci fi (that your library is likely to have seeing as there's no hauling allowed) check out anything from Emily St. John Mandel. Sea of Tranquility is a time travel book that's kinda structured like concentric rings where 5 people in 5 different times have the same really weird thing happen to them that lasts under a minute and then you as the reader are trying to piece together wtf the weird thing is. Staion 11 is about a post pandemic world and people trying to survive and rebuild. The Glass Hotel is definitely the least sci fo of them all and honestly isn't as good, but all three books are kinda linked but not really (kinda in a similar way to the Taylor Jenkins Reid books) and if you read the other 2 you might be interested
Cloud Atlas is one of my favourite movies, but I haven't read the book yet.
The premise for The Last Murder at the End of the World is wild but I trust Stuart Turton. I can't wait for your first haul in your new house 😂
Fancy seeing you here :P
I thought it was pretty fun! Lmk your thoughts when you read it. I did the audio arc with the WS physical copy last week
I also have evernight as a horror book box subscription and have been disappointed!
I much prefer twisted retreat :)
I dnfed A Feather So Black, but i know other people enjoyed it so who knows
I also cancelled Evernight recently. I was just so underwhelmed and none of them have been horror like I expected 😢
12:50 michelle McNamara’a husband is Patton Oswalt the voice of ratatouille!!
...in this house. Well done
Is it just me or was that video up a few days ago? Because I remember that thumbnail 😅
How do the puffin clothbound hold up? Because the penguin clothbound I’ve heard loose their paint because it’s just printed on.
I can confirm my Puffin clothbounds are holding up better than the Penguin ones. I’d read from the Puffin, not the Penguin copies where possible.
@@ReadwithStefani thank you 😊 I don’t have a book from either of these collections but they a publishing the worst witch later this year and have a few others I would like to read but if they don’t hold up I don’t know if I want to spent the money 😊
I read a feather so black I gave it 3 stars I was bored it was repetitive 😅🙈
Would love to win the book @ Just_Bea_Weird
Also, I love the Neverending Story edition, I hope the translation holds up. 💜
Omg Gav, the eyebrow raise is the best thing of 2024😂😂😂😂 loved the DG cameo too!!!!!!
My insta is @milahendriks2001 :)
Should have asked for kindle vouchers for your birthday then you could still do kindle hauls 😉
I think if someone had told me Olivie Blake had written Evocation I would not have questioned it
I can finally exhale knowing this isn’t the final book haul forever LOL
Might as well enter the giveaway! @lettersfromlilly 💕✨ Debating to get my hands on the warm hands of ghosts & hoping To gaze upon wicked Gods is really good! Just got my copy in the mail earlier this week 🤞
I hope you like all these books! Thanks for the opportunity for the giveaway too! (@paintandpointes on insta)
You got me good with the last book haul title lol. Good Luck with the house hunting.
@destiny1819
The 90’s are vintage???? How dare you?? (written by someone who turns 50 at the end of this year 😂😂😂)
Stitches was a huge disappointment to me but the Junji Ito art was sooooo good
🖤💚📚🛍
I'm afraid I can't persuade you the A Feather So Black is good. I DNFed
Aaaw, what a great book haul (again) 😍
And to enter the giveaway, here's my instagram handle: @CookieSpengler
i read molly x. chang's book and i'm chinese-vietnamese. non-spoiler short of it is that it's a betrayal of loved ones, countryman, and self. it's also really poorly written. i recommend watching catherine anne chiang's review of it (a chinese-american booktuber).
Yeah seconded. The Last Bloodcarver is a way better read for 2024 fantasy debuts
AlliIsVeryCool ❤️
I've spent the last couple of years very in the "buying books and reading books are two different hobbies" mindset, but I'm starting to run out of room in my house for new books! Now, I'm trying to be intentional with what I'm buying, and monthly bookboxes are losing their appeal for me, might be cancelling my subscription soon 🫤
@roisins_book_corner, love book halls
Loved watching this. Crossing fingers and sending good vibes for the house buying!
@lauraschroniclife is my handle here and on Instagram and TikTok
Im excited for you to get a new house!
Imagine if it was in that haunted village you visited last year 😱
Your library would have a ghost!

I should really enter a giveaway for new bookshelves at this point. But until I find one: @dryadat4am on instagram. Not that I'm super active there, but it exist.
Omg! I missed out on that kickstarter by one month, and I was so disappointed because that book is so gorgeous! My insta: @extraordinarily_alli
Daniel B Greene’s book looks so beautiful. Insta is @fromtheimagination
^^
Would love to win that giveaway, me facebook is @louie Clarke
No book is special when every single one of them looks fancy. This fast fashion special edition version of books have really put me off book buying lately
Great haul Gavin! I still haven't got to I'll Be Gone In The Dark and this is the 2nd time I've had it out from my library.
My Instagram handle is @bookaholic_banter
Good luck with finding a new house with a beautiful garden. Making a new home ❤
@arnhems_meisje_
Lianne *roasted* Dowry and the other ST. Gibson, which gave me licence to be open about how much I hated Dowry. I've 0 plans on reading any more of their writing 🤷♀️
To Gaze Upon Wicked God's isn't a colonizer romance. I think some people read the synopsis and assumed and wrote reviews on that. The author had to come out and spoil her book to show that it wasn't colonizer. I also believe she was one of the ones that was attacked in the cat corrian drama so she's been through it.
My Instagram is @carolinejane42
I read the ARC and had started it before that started circulating. How can it be anything else? The beginning part was fine, but as you got to know his role more (within a certain building of science, for instance) it screams problematic. At the end of the day, he causes harm to the local people with the hope of saving his own people.
@@mintyxx1 the author explains it. You should read what she wrote about it. That will answer your questions.
it's worth noting that the author and marketing team did an EXTREME pivot after the backlash.
but having read the book and seen her original promotion it's very difficult to believe the new angle they're promoting or to dismiss the reviewers calling it a colonizer romance. it's supposed to be "zutara," the MC pays more attention to her feelings about his eye color than Unit 731 crimes, and there's a POV chapter at the end that's kind of unhinged and angling for a redemption arc.
check out mynameismarines and/or catherineannechiang's review for some very thorough and fair BIPOC reviews that actually read the book
(yes, she was part of the corrain drama. but that doesn't excuse how problematic and poorly written TGUWG is)
To Gaze Upon Wicked Gods was a really choppy, repetitive, hand-holding writing style that I didn't vibe with at all.
I think if the goal was not to create a colonizer romance, then the writing/editing/marketing really failed here; and the POV chapter toward the end seems in direct contrast with the new marketing they've pivoted to.
Please gift me Dragonball mangas ❤ 🥹
you read a frankly ridiculous amount of books (and lately manga as well) and upload elaborate, in-depth videos at a crazy frequent rate too, so I'm just concerned about your mental health and whether you're coping up well :( just worried that it's a bit unhealthy hahahah, but yes, what you do is great, and I hope you make it big :>
@decodethebooks 💜
Have a great move!! ❤
Currently moving too with a book buying ban 🥲
@mcgbreads ❤

Loved the DG cameo 😂
@_kopikoblanca
As someone who's starting to dive into manga/manhwa/manhua, Stitches might be perfect since I loveee horror. Thank you for the rec!
