    I prefer this new way of editing! That way your design is still fresh in my mind when you react to the official cover.

    The gasp i gasped when i saw that the swirl was on point

    this is one of my FAVORITE series of yours. it's the most creative and innovative booktube ideas in YEARS. and you're so good at it too.

  • @SarahAtHeart
    @SarahAtHeart Před 3 měsíci +219

    I was absolutely squealing when you chose the word Compendium!

  • @kelley.s
    @kelley.s Před 3 měsíci +171

    I gasped when I saw the swirl! Your delayed reaction was so funny but of course you're seeing it months after you designed your version and we're seeing it immediately. I loved the editing for this video, I like seeing the cover reveal right after your design.

    Your Wedding Witch one is so much nicer, the official one is giving 'graphic design is my passion' vibes 😂 love this new style of editing too!

    • @jacforswear18
      @jacforswear18 Před 3 měsíci +9

      Okay, im glad I’m not the only one who things the real one looks… not good 😂 it looks like someone was trying to copy the previous two covers but really just… couldn’t figure it out.

    • @readingpastbedtime
      @readingpastbedtime Před 2 měsíci +2

      Agree. Kayla’s is so much better.

  • @XOmangoXO
    @XOmangoXO Před 3 měsíci +61

    You talking about your Throne of Secrets cover being uglier when I can’t stop staring at it because it’s so gorgeous

  • @theapenning8944
    @theapenning8944 Před 3 měsíci +255

    I prefer this editing style for these videos. I really like how the reveals are spread out and it has a bit more variation in what you're watching. Love these videos btw!

  • @brittneyholley3
    @brittneyholley3 Před 3 měsíci +63

    “I feel really powerful” ☠️☠️😂😂 you’re the best ! This has to be my favorite series of yours

  • @ghouling1111
    @ghouling1111 Před 3 měsíci +87

    I’m screaming … honestly I prefer your covers to all of them. Id love to see authors and the designers react to these! You are so skilled. Please stop saying yours are bad, they are mock ups and honestly they better than most covers.

  • @KittyxKult
    @KittyxKult Před 3 měsíci +28

    Also your cover design skill has grown so much since you first did this!! You kept saying your covers were uglier but honestly I love the throne of secrets one

  • @tarredion
    @tarredion Před 2 měsíci +7

    The Emily Wilde one was SO close omg (I’m impressed every time, I don’t know how you do it)

  • @f.helies7229
    @f.helies7229 Před 3 měsíci +53

    I prefer this editing order ! Those were some impressive guesses for the first and third books, I am impressed 🎉

  • @zachzackzak
    @zachzackzak Před 3 měsíci +69

    I think this style of editing works better. Also, you were so close with the witch book!

  • @KristinKravesBooks
    @KristinKravesBooks Před 3 měsíci +28

    Every time you mentioned compendium I kept hoping you would settle on it. That was so impressive! I was so surprised by how bright the real cover is but I love that because I think the story gets brighter as it goes on too!

  • @kholloway5271
    @kholloway5271 Před 3 měsíci +20

    The sparkly swirl!! What a bizarre detail to nail so well! This video always makes me realize I don’t pay enough attention to covers.
    I love the instant reaction shots. So satisfying!!

  • @boxersandbooks
    @boxersandbooks Před 3 měsíci +13

    I like how you edited this one. I didn't mind jumping back and forth in time

  • @beccadoingstuff
    @beccadoingstuff Před 2 měsíci +2

    my graphic design heart LOVES this series so much!! you have so much creative talent and can we just talk about the growth you’ve shown through these videos?!? all of your mockups are so lovely and i bet you could absolutely design a real cover one day if you were ever interested :)

  • @abbybeck3370
    @abbybeck3370 Před 3 měsíci +7

    I think I like this editing method better! I usually forget what the first design was by the time the cover is revealed, and having it fresh in my mind made me more invested

  • @shannonlanghart346
    @shannonlanghart346 Před 3 měsíci +9

    This way of editing is more easy to follow, it's nice to see the reveal while having your covers still in my memory. Loved the video!

  • @jenniferkruger759
    @jenniferkruger759 Před 3 měsíci +14

    I really like the updates interspersed throughout the video. Love this series!

  • @lilifane
    @lilifane Před 3 měsíci +25

    I love this video series! I hope you continue to have fun with it and we get many more. Because omg you're SO good with your predictions! Even if for you the actual covers look totally different, I see all the similarities and it's mind blowing!

  • @jjamieallover
    @jjamieallover Před 3 měsíci +4

    i definitely prefer this version of editing! i love the immediacy of seeing if you are right or not 😊
    as you were brainstorming for emily wilde, as soon as you said compendium i said, out loud, "oh that's gotta be it that's such a good word" 😆
    and the way i GASPED at the swirl around the people for the wedding witch
    such a fun video! i love this series

  • @theautumnreader327
    @theautumnreader327 Před 2 měsíci +2

    Your cover for The Wedding Witch is so much better than the actual cover

  • @BrittWarren201
    @BrittWarren201 Před 3 měsíci +2

    I'm actually obsessed with this!! 😭😭 I love this idea, and I thought your covers were just as good (if not better) than the revealed covers

  • @paperbacksgalore
    @paperbacksgalore Před 3 měsíci +4

    seeing you get Compendium right was so satisfying

  • @jessgignac8426
    @jessgignac8426 Před 2 měsíci +1

    your mock-ups are really good! I loved the throne of secrets one a lot better than the actual cover.
    I also think I prefer the editing on this video

  • @Jane42.
    @Jane42. Před 3 měsíci +1

    I think you totally could be a cover designer! I love all the details you notice, and how you think about the series cohesively. I liked this order of design, then reveal of each.

  • @Liz-cs8vd
    @Liz-cs8vd Před 3 měsíci +1

    I liked the style of editing on this one where we got an entire journey with a book before the next one. It didn't even occur to me that it was different than usual

  • @sassysarahreads
    @sassysarahreads Před 3 měsíci +2

    Honestly, I prefer your Wedding Witch book. It’s not as busy as the final cover. It also doesn’t feel as corny with the Christmas trees, but I do like the castle in the moon in the final cover.

  • @kyleerabbitts3671
    @kyleerabbitts3671 Před 3 měsíci +2

    i really liked this way of editing. going book by book worked wonders for my brain and attention span

  • @JadeJuniiper
    @JadeJuniiper Před 3 měsíci +1

    I like the spliced edit! It felt like every cover got its time

  • @SundayLaughs
    @SundayLaughs Před 3 měsíci +8

    I eat these videos up every time, and I'm so glad you keep doing them! I loved your excitement to The Wedding Witch cover-- you were spot on and I'm scared. Next time you do the video, I definitely prefer this style of editing where your reactions are spliced in and there are dedicated sections to each book, so my vote's for that for future vids in the series

  • @olivialincoln2545
    @olivialincoln2545 Před 3 měsíci +6

    My favorite series of yours!! So excited!!

  • @BinxThinx
    @BinxThinx Před 2 měsíci

    Loved having the design and reaction together! I don’t often have time to watch a full video so I watched this in chunks and was nice having the first book and reaction together to stop at

  • @jaimee-kate
    @jaimee-kate Před 3 měsíci +2

  • @inabacklistmood3124
    @inabacklistmood3124 Před 3 měsíci +3

    The first and last one are so close conceptually it's wild

  • @readingintothevoid2930
    @readingintothevoid2930 Před 2 měsíci

    LOVE this series. I personally like when all the designing happens up front and then the reveals, however, I totally understand how some ppl would like one book to get wrapped up before going to the next. Regardless, I’ll always watch these videos!

  • @MilenaReads
    @MilenaReads Před 3 měsíci

    I was so impressed with the last one! That christmas tree swirl. I liked this way of editing!

  • @itjessme6746
    @itjessme6746 Před měsícem

    I like the style of editing in this one, a) because your design is fresh in my mind, and b) if someone is interested in only one or two of the books then they can jump to that time stamp

  • @thebookishvalkyrie
    @thebookishvalkyrie Před 3 měsíci +2

  • @marlabakes
    @marlabakes Před 3 měsíci

    I prefer seeing each reaction immediately after you finish designing the cover so that all your points and your cover are fresh in my mind. Otherwise I forget your points and the covers get a bit jumbled for me. I'm so impressed at how well you could guess on the designs this round! 👏👏👏 I love these videos.
