    i used to read 50 to 60 pages a day. but now i realize its getting easier and quicker for me to read 100 to 120 pages a day. happy about it though. as always love the thumbnail. can't say it enough. and your sticker collections aaaaa makes me happy. 💚

    so happy to see you liked the poppy war, even if it wasn't for you:') it's my favourite book of all time (and by that i mean i have no coherent thoughts, i'm simply insane about it). i did my mandatory bookclub reread last week and it was as painful as i remembered it ✨ *sobs*
    if you decide to continue the trilogy, the next 2 books are far less brutal, like they're still dark and everything keeps going downhill but it doesn't get any more graphic or grim than what you've already read
    great video as always :]

    • @katieisreading
      @katieisreading  Před rokem +2

      i definitely see why it's a favorite for you! i wish i could get into grimdark fantasy more, but the book was still fantastic! that's good to hear that the other books are less brutal, i think i will definitely have to pick them up at some point (just not right now haha) so thanks for telling me! :)

    This video genuinely motivated me to read more again! Lately, it's been kind of difficult for me to sit down and read. Once I am reading I'm enjoying my time but sometimes it's just a little hard to make myself sit down and actually start reading lately. In August I read 39 pages per day on average meanwhile in May for example I read 61 pages per day on average. While I can't read 150+ pages every day because I'm a slow reader (it would take me like 5 hours to read that many pages) this video did motivate me to try and read more again! ☺

    It’s taken me a good 10 months to move on to the second book in the poppy war series because of how real and raw the first one felt and it definitely took a mental toll on me. I did enjoy her writing and the world building!
    Also you just reminded me to get new fairy lights for my bookshelf! 🖤

    Hi Katie, is reading Your reading vlog was such a cozy and inspiring watch! 🍂💫 It's truly motivating to see your dedication to reading 150 pages a day and achieving that goal, along with finishing four books in a week. Your candid thoughts about "The Poppy War" are relatable, and your enthusiasm for "The Naturals" is infectious. And those fairy lights on your bookshelf create the perfect reading atmosphere!

    It makes me feel so much better to know someone else feels the exact same about Poppy War. It was SO hard for me to read and I had to recently unhaul it because Theres no point forcing.. its not my type of fantasy. Its just so loved that I feel bad BC I felt dumb reading it and can barely remember anything a year later

    Okay ik she might not see this but I HIGHLY recommend "turtles all the way down" by John Green. It's a turning of age story, with romance, and the main character deals with mental health problems and the way it is described is so well done. It's so good at the sad parts and good at the happy parts. Idc who sees this but this book was 5/5 for me and that doesn't happen a lot.

    it has nothing to do with Katy or other people loving it but-the Poppy War is kind of racist to Taiwan. I just want people(esp non Asian people) to acknowledge that RF Kuang referencing Taiwan as speerlies aka the colony of Nikan(also aka China) is terribly wrong. Please look up the information about the second Sino War before jumping into it... it is so much more.;) - I'm not Taiwanese, just a disclaimer.
