the fact that ppl have to BEG not to be hated on over a book is so crazy like ppl should be allowed to have their own opinions lmao😭
Exactly
if you film this type of video again you should do
1 book- finish a series
2 book- continue a series
3 book- get up to date with a series

Why are these finishing the series videos so addicting to me. Like I will go back and watch this 10 times easily before getting bored, and I stalk all booktubers for these videos.
Same😭😭
JustAli made like 4 I think
The audiobook for Powerful literally had my crying like a baby. Hearing Adena & Mak count in the end, it BROKE ME! 😢😢😢
Congrats on 25k!! 🥳🎉 Bestie, stop apologizing for your honest opinions!! Anyone who disagrees can kick rocks.
Awww! It sucks that those negative comments got you down. But I'm so proud of you for powering through regardless. You're so strong for that! And honestly screw them because it's your opinion at the end of the day. And an opinion isn't fact. We all enjoy and dislike different things and that's okay. You're literally so open-minded and so respectful with your opinions. I'm glad you didn't let the hate comments stop you from doing something you enjoy. I personally didn't enjoy the Addicted or Magnolia Parks books either. Also, you looked STUNNING in those dresses! Loved your outfit! And it's criminal that there's no AC in the UK.
I was one of the people that suggested Powerful and I’m so happy you loved it! Personally I didn’t like Powerless however Powerful was a 5 star for me, I loved it so much and I’m so excited for Reckless. I’m really hoping Mak will come back and help Paedyn :D
That's really interesting. I didn't like Powerless so I wasn't interested in reading Powerful but if you liked it maybe it is worth a try. If you don't mind telling me, why did you not like Powerless but like Powerful - I'm really intrigued! I just want to know if I should give Powerful a go despite not liking the first :)
Yes!! I’m loving Powerful so much more than Powerless. Even though it’s significantly smaller, it packs a punch (pun intended lol)
for Lauren Asher's books - the Dirty Air series is her first series, and then she wrote Dreamland Billionaires and then Lakefront Billionaires. I've read all her books but redeemed but I definitely feel that the Dirty Air series is good but not much more than that but I love the rest of her books.
The more you read addicted series the better it gets. I also wasn’t a fan of the first 3 books but when the Calloway series starts it’s so good. And when things happen between Ryke and Daisy she’s 18+ so don’t worry and Lauren Asher f1 series I think is the first books she wrote
I just read powerless and powerfull as a tandem read and can really recomend it. The end hit HARD with reading them together!
Congrats on 25k :) So happy for you.
And I love when people continue series they started, it motivates me to do the same.
congrats on 25k bestie you deserve everything and more 🫶🏻
Your face at the end of Powerful! I understand that face. I cried my eyes out! Snot running down my nose. It was awful but also so good.
12:00 your hair looks sooo good like that too
That Eras Tour outfit was stunnning! Love this style of video - it is always satisfying to be able to tick off another book in a series.
Addicted/Calloway is my favorite series of all time, so I feel like I can help a bit haha...the first three books are definitely tamer compared to the rest of the series in terms of plots. Once you start Rose/Connor and Ryke/Daisy, you kind of get all three couples mixed up so it becomes more invested in the plot. It is definitely a character heavy series though. In terms of Ryke and Daisy, it's important to note that nothing happens between them until Daisy is eighteen and their first story definitely delves into the age gap a lot and how all the characters feel about that. I would argue that they have the best relationship, they go through a lot of stuff together that I think is really important, that isn't often mentioned in romance books, I always felt a strong connection to Daisy. I hope you will continue the series
so excited u don't know how much comfort your videos bring me
I always love your reading vlogs ❤️
OMG I LOVE THESE TYPES OF VIDEOS AND IM SO EXITED TO WATCH
I'M SO EXICTED TO WATCH THIS, I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!! ❤️💕
my favourite part of the week xxx
Your era's tour outfit was absolutely perfect 😙👌🏼
So excited to be in the first hour club! Absolutely love your videos please never stop 💙
i love these videos & i love watching you so this is a WIN
i actually didn't like once upon a true love either!!! my ratings were similar to yours with the dirty air series, i completely agree. so sad to hear you wanted to give up your channel you don't deserve the amount of hate you got! it's your OPINION it can't be wrong. keep going i love your channel!! your posts always make my day 🩷
OMG I just came home from a walk and then this just popped up and now I'm so excited to watch it!! I love your vlogs and seeing what series you are in the middle of, this is a great way to end the weekend while it's raining outside!!!! ❤❤
oh my goodness your eras tour outfit was GORGEOUS
These kinda vids are sm fun!:)
i loved your eras tour instagram stories! i’m so happy for you that you got to go!
I feel you on the Callowayseries... personally I didn't love Lily and Lo's books but further in the series I fell in love with the characters and enjoyed the other books more ❤
You should do a boyfriend picks my tbr for july or august 🥰
i'm so sorry you got mean comments just because you stated that you did not like a book and you should not feel bad about not liking a book either. i always appreciate that you always give your honest opinions.
I think you’ll probably love lily and lo more in the Calloway sisters books. The first 3 books also fell flat for me. But by the time you come to addicted after all after reading kiss the sky and hothouse flower you will definitely root for lily and lo.
Ps: I think you’re reallyy gonna love kiss the sky.
I just read powerful a few days ago so seeing you read it made me cry all over again😭thank god reckless comes out tomorrow I will be binging it!!
I just finished powerful 2 days ago and SOBBED haha, so excited for reckless 🩵
Ellen I would love you to do a mid year book tag!!!
I wasn't in love with the addicted part of the addicted/calloway series but the calloway books are so so good, especially kiss the sky and hothouse flower, they were 5 stars for me whereas the addicted books sat around 3 stars. I'm excited for you to read the calloway books and hope that it gets better for you in their books like it did for me!
Great vlog💕. I've never actually be able to get really into a Lauren Asher book but I'm going to try and finish the books of hers that I've started at some point.
even though lily and lo are my personal favourite couple in the series, my favourite books are definitely rose and connor's so I'll be really interested in seeing how you enjoy kiss the sky! love your videos so much I've been bingeing them recently xx
I just finished powerless yesterday and I loved it so much I had to go get powerful first thing this morning 😅
U don’t understand how I was waiting for 11am here in fl ❤
Girll❤ I am in disbelief that I like a booktuber to the level of my bestie. Also if you want to add more shelfs you can add one on the top of every row of your shelf 💝😊
Love from India 🎉🎉
Powerful literally broke me
The way I sobbed at the end! 😢
12:19 I went wembley night 1 too and it was amazing. we won the surprise songs
Wow! I’ve never click on a video so fast in my life and been first! Love your videos you’re the best!
I read Powerful without reading or knowing anything about the rest of the series and the ending gutted me.
I need a video dedicated just to Pep
kinda off topic but how much does your kindle battery last? im trying to see with other people cause mine lasts 6 days max and i bought it in November
Ahh I am doing this series too but I find it so hard not to keep starting new series 😅😅😅😅
Pink pony club slaps 🩷🎠
See I couldn't 'stand' Caraval because I felt that was too flowery and my lord the descriptors are just endless in that book. I was so sad cause everyone seemed to love it and I just couldn't get into it at all. As soon as someone says a book is flowery, it's immediately added to the list of books I wont touch haha. Also, LOVED your Era's Tour outfit. I thought Australia won the tour because it was exquisite but I've seen too many clips of the London tour and.. I know when to accept defeat haha
Is that… is that a chapstick attached to your phone??!
YES😭😭 accutane has made my lips so dry that i can’t go anywhere without it now hahaha
Can I ask what wireless headset you use? I've been looking for a good pair to buy to listen to my audiobooks with (I'm currently using some wireless earbuds), and I've seen that you've had yours for a while!
I'm in the U.S. and the house I rented up until last year didn't have closets. The owners put wardrobes in both bedrooms and the house we rent now 2 of the bedrooms have a closet, my daughter's room has 2 closets and my son's room doesn't have one. Never understood why the other house didn't have them. Maybe because it was an older house but I don't know. As far as this one, I really don't get why one bedroom has 2 and one doesn't have any closets. I have several series I need to finish, a few I have to wait for the next ones to come out though.
If y'all don't have air conditioning for cooling, do ya'll use fans ? I'm not trying to be nosey, I'm just curious. I don't know about anyone else but I'd be interested in things ya'll have or don't have compared to the U.S. and things ya'll do or don't do compared to the U.S. I know ya'll say football for what we call soccer. Honestly calling it football makes sense. Our football only uses feet for kick off. I like learning things so I would be interested in a video if you felt like doing one but if not it's okay.
I think I liked Powerful more than powerless even if it was heartbreaking. Probably because I liked Adena more than Payden.
❤❤❤
i have way too many series i need to finish up-
i love the motivation you have for doing this bc i seem to have an aversion to finishing series??? 🥲💓
