you are sooo underrated! definitely my new comfort booktube channel ♡♡
i'm gonna start bawling this is literally the cutest comment omg thank you zyrah 😭💖
that is so kind thank you ❤️ and i hope so !!
I thought the hype behind Sarah J Maas was all noise, but I after reading it for my book club, I realize that regardless of what your opinion of the book is, the ensuing discussion with your peers/friends is MAGICAL. Everything from plot points to the wildly descriptive you-know-what scenes are so fun to discuss.
omg never thought of it this way - maybe I need to force my friends to also read the series so we can properly discuss it lol
That is quite the eclectic mix of reading ! "I'm a fan" sounds like one worth checking out when I have time. This month I've been reading "A Suitable Boy" by Vikram Seth, "Fourteen Days" and every month I'm taking part in a Shakespeare read along and this month was "The Merry Wives Of Windsor". I have a love hate relationship with Shakespeare, I want to love him, and I keep trying but sometimes I just don't get it at all.
oooo a shakespeare read along sounds interesting! i know what you mean - i want to love his work so bad but when i attempt to read his work i have literally no idea what's going on
@@katerinareemI just picked up a book today that I think will be really helpful "Everyday Shakespeare- Lines for life" by Ben & David Crystal. Each day of the year is one page, a quote from Shakespeare explained in a quick paragraph that takes minutes to read. The quotes are from all of his works and tells you which play the quote is from to help you understand that context easier.
just found it on my kindle for 99p so I immediately bought it !! thank you so so much for the rec, i'm so excited to read it ahhhh
@@katerinareemWhat a great deal ! I've already found it helpful reading the old English with modern explanations of what it means in what context. Hope you enjoy it
I came across your videos yesterday and now binging all of them❤
hehehe glad you like them !!
Very nice your feb was book-wise it seems ;) Also the way you tell what the book is, is just awesome. The most beautiful thing is how you add your personal touch to it by reading us your favourite quotes and paragraphs from the book - that is just beautiful and thoughtful. I hope you keep doing that, I really love that part. Thankyou for the video.
thank you so much !! yes before I started my own channel, it was always something I wish other booktubers did because I wanted to know what the book was about and more specific things about it to know whether it was worth reading or not!
@@katerinareem oh wow, this is so nice to hear. You do it so beautifully.
that's incredibly kind of you, thank you!
finally, someone who hated My Sister, the Serial Killer as much as i did! this month i read Red Seas Under Red Skies, How to Sell a Haunted House, The Hero of Ages, and Plain Bad Heroines. currently reading Wuthering Heights which I'll probably finish before the month is over
honestly i just didn't understand the hype i saw for it! oooo interesting collection of books, which was your favourite this month?
@@katerinareem oh my favourite book of the month was Red Seas Under Red Skies, the second book in the Gentleman Bastard series! highly recommend - it's just so funny, full of adventure, and the characters are amazing.
love that, i'll check out the series bc they sound great!

really loved this video. super comforting vibes. feel the same way about ACOTAR lol, never continued with the series but i did not have a bad time with the first book.
thank you so much !! honestly i see so many people read ACOTAR i feel like i'm missing out by not giving it a go - hopefully i'll read the second book soon so you can see my thoughts on it lol
just added "miracle in the andes" to my TBR ..sounds like an amazing book, Thank you darling and I'm also reading the second book in the ACOTAR series

My sister, the serial killer is also on my tbr. I‘m curious what I will think of it 😅
i hope you like it more than me 😭
hello miss, this is officialy my new favorite booktube channel🥰🥰
i’m screaming this is such a lovely comment omg !!
@@katerinareem we have really similar taste in books and i actually struggle to find less booktok, more grown up book recommendations. i love your content!! ❤️❤️❤️
@@90trbl i find the same problem with booktok, have the recs on there are not my taste at all 😩 glad i can recommend books to you that are more in line with you preferences !! 🤗
Oh wow we literally have the same taste in books! So many of these I have read and enjoyed :) Glad that I found this channel. Loved the video.
we clearly have great taste !! and hehe thank you so much
@@katerinareem Loving all your videos, greetings from Barcelona :)
ooo barcelona!! quiero vivir en barcelona pero mi español no es bueno (I need to stick to my duolingo lessons more lol)
Aren’t we all a lil obsessed with Enzo Vogrincic lol
you’re a real one for this comment
hi! so happy i came across your channel!! i’ve been meaning to watch society if the snow, but just haven’t gotten around to it yet & now i really want to read miracle in the andes.
also have been wanting to read i’m a fan!! glad to hear you enjoyed it 💗
ahhh crying thank you so much !! (also love to see your name is kat hehe) omg excited for you to watch/read about society of the snow, hope you're not too traumatised after lol
@@katerinareem lololol def a reason why i haven’t watched it yet 😂 but i still want to get to it because i wanna learn more about what happened!!
i love finding other kat’s out there lolol 👯♀️
honestly once you start you will find yourself falling down a complete rabbit hole with it (at least I did LMAO) and hahaha clearly the superior name!
Thanks for the video, quite entertaining.
thank you so much !!
new subscriber here! I’m currently reading The Secret History and I’m gripped
thank you for subscribing !! and omg the secret history is one of my fav books of all time, i hope you enjoy it also
ooo i really liked society of the snow and was wondering if the book was worth the read after knowing the story that the movie told... might have to pick that up, i really want to know more about the day to day thoughts the group was having. i still CANNOT wrap my head around how its possible there were survivors.
honestly same, but I went down such a rabbit hole when I saw the movie omg i'm still obsessed!
can I recommend you books?🥺
of course you can !! also love to see your name is also katerina✨
@@katerinareem haha yes❤️ If you like “Lolita” and “my dark Vanessa”here is “Fang Si-Chi's First Love Paradise” by Lin Yi-han. Autobiographical novel by woman who endured “relationships” with her teacher. She took her own life after publishing this work at age 26. it’s painfully sincere and soo beautifully whritten. 😭
“Woman in the Dunes” by Kobo Abe - a true masterpiece! Existential chaotic adventure though sands and life meaning.
kazuo ishiguro “The Buried Giant” - a beutiful metaphoric fable about memory.
genuine question, why do you use “out of 10” rating instead of “5-star” rating?
i don't have an actual reason tbf! i suppose i thought it was more specific than 5 stars but i realise that people do half stars too so it's basically the same, i may switch to stars soon as i see that it's the more popular way of rating books lol
