"its about luffy and the people he adopts along the way..." YOU DON'T SUCK AT EXPLAINING I LOVE THAT 😭
AND I LOVE YOU 😭🫶
Blue is definitely Bella’s color 😩🤌🏻✨
Why not she's a fairie after all !💌
@@anchalkandari5150 ✨she was a fairy✨
this blue ensemble looks so good on you
Thank you so much :’)
I read 4 books this month 😁
I am soo proud of myself
My favourite this month is definitely Inferno by Dan Brown
That's awesome! My favorite book this month was Dark Matter by Blake Crouch 😁 November was a pretty good reading month!
I’m proud of you too!! 🥹🫶
Stephen King Rec: “The Long Walk”. It’s one of my all time favorite books. It’s essentially a competition where 100 kids need to walk non-stop until only one is left
That sounds HORRIFYING I’m sold 😍
I'm actually about 180+ pages in that book but stopped reading it like 6 months ago and now I have a hard time getting back into it. It was good tho. I should just push myself to continue
@@Wings0fFreedom That makes sense, the book definitely starts strong and it slows down a bit in the middle. But if you push through I think the last pages are going to be worth it
I’ve read only like three King books and IT is my favorite (just because of the characters and sentimentality) but The Long Walk is a very close second and one of my biggest recommendations. I was surprised with how much I liked it, it’s so good honestly.
Yes absolutely!!! I also have to recommend Dolores Claiborne, which is a super underrated King book I loved
North and South is truly such a beautiful story. One of my favourites! And I read it bc you were always talking about wanting to read it haha 💕😭
I’m so glad you finally read it and enjoyed it too!!
I love this for us 🥹🫶
Babe I’m so proud of you for finally finishing north& south!! I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Now you gotta watch the mini series of north and south please!!!
THANK YOU 😩🫶
I'm reading "The Name of the Rose" by Umberto Eco at the moment and I'm so in love with this book. It has everything: the story, the atmosphere, the humour. Just incredible. A perfect book for winter days when it is snowing outside (for other seasons as well😂) I can recommend it highly❤
Can't wait for Evocation to come out.
Check out the BBC North & South mini-series with Richard Armitage.
Non-fiction recs to level you up:
level 1: Moonwalking with Einstein, by Joshua Foer, will literally give you a super power.
level 2: Buddhism Without Beliefs, by Stephen Batchelor, will change your way of life-no faith required.
level 3: The Body Keeps the Score, by Bessel A. van der Kolk, not a light read but is the definitive text on trauma.
Thank you for the non fiction recs!! I’m just gonna trust you and add these to my Amazon cart blindly 😤
I will sound cliche but “salems lot” and “the shining” are my top King recommendations. Love your videos!! 💖🌸
Bella, you should def read "The Shining", it's the first of his books I've ever read and it made me understand why he's such a famous author
Oh? 👀👀
Si quieres reintentar con King, te recomiendo encarecidamente "Cementerio de animales" es mi libro favorito de el y es brutal, y "El resplandor" aunque es un poco mas extenso es una obra de arte. Espero los disfrutes si los lees en algún momento. Amo tu contenido y tu sentido del humor. Saludos desde Chile
pet sematary is soooo good
Do a huge book haul to prevent the reading slump :) eagerly waiting for one !!!!😍
Omg seeing your books tabbed is so satisfying. It makes me want to start doing that with my books ❤
November was the best month for me! About 21 books which I don’t even know how I managed to do that. Needless to say, I am going to go WAY easier in the month of December 😂
GIVE ME SOME OF YOUR READING MOJO I NEED IT
IDK if u will ever see my comment or not but watching your videos really brings me happiness. I have tried many other booktubers (they are good) but i am not the right audience for them. But Bella you rock baby....i love your taste in books so much...my entire TBR is based on your recommendations (well, most of it). Love from India...keep making more such content. 🥺🥺❤
Thank you so much 🥹💛🫶
This came at just the right time as I settle down with a cup of tea to calm my fever. Also love the blue theme you have going on it's such a slay ✨️
I hope your fever goes down sooner rather than later 🥺🫶
@throneofpages Thank you that's so sweet!! been trying to steal some rest here and there and came to the realisation how important it is to sometimes give your body and mind a break. Finally started reading again too after being in an immense slump since september 😭 (it's the picture of dorian gray :3)
@@ccaiitliin you’re so right 😩✊ I hope you love the picture of Dorian Gray!! 👉👈
Misery is a really good movie, you should watch it! I guess more thrilling because of the acting than the book
oiii isa
Evocation was amazing ! I love saints work so much
So glad you enjoyed My Love Mix Up❤
I'm so glad to see you enjoying one piece! I wish I could afford to read the physical copies but I fly through manga way too fast HAHA. I read it last year in like 2 weeks oops. One of my favourite ongoing mangas right now is Dandadan, I just find it pretty funny and I love the art. Also, I just wanted to say that watching your videos have inspired me to start reading more classics:)
OMG a fellow Dandadan lover! I rarely see people talk about it but Dandadan is one of my favorite ongoing manga series right now!
@@Rivia20Yes! I've been spreading my agenda to get everyone to read it HAHA
OMG A NEW POST LET ME GET COMFYYYY!!! Thank you for being you, you are honestly the best🥰💕🥰💕🥰
Thank you so much 🥰🫶
So glad that you enjoyed North and South!! Hopefully I will enjoy it to when I get round to it 🤞❤
I love how fast you got this up! I feel the same way as you if I can’t connect to the characters then I end up not caring as much about what happens, especially if the author just doesn’t give enough depth to the characters. My favorite read of November was The Bookwanderers by Anna James 😊
I’m so glad I’m not alone in this 😩🫶
I always look forward to your updates❤
Great video like always 😊
And love some skypiea arc appreciation😊❤
even though you feel a reading slump coming you still had such a good reading month and I'm hoping that december will be a good month for you as well (not just for reading but in general 💖)
I know you generally don't like scifi but since you liked All You Need Is Kill maybe you'd like The Light Brigade by Kameron Hurley, it's about a war between Earth and Mars where the maincharacter ends up time travelling through different parts of the war. It's really gorey and good, I really enjoyed so maybe you will too!
The best books I read this month were The Book of Dragons, a short story collection about dragons and almost all of the stories were so good! I also read The Confessions of Frannie Langton which is about a freed-slave-forced-into-maid writing down her life history from within jail while she is standing trial for the murder of her mistress/lover. It was really really dark but also very very good!
(also not me leaving a comment with paragraphs :omg:)
I LOVE THE PARAGRAPHS HELLOO!!!
The Light Brigade sounds right up my alley I’m definitely going to be checking it out 😈😈 and the confessions of Frankie Langton sounds so good as well you know I’m a sucker for dark stories 👀✍️✍️✍️
@@throneofpages oooh I'd love to hear your thoughts on both the Light Brigade and The Confessions of Frannie Langton 🥺
i'm SO happy you enjoyed the secret history!!!! people usually like tsh OR iwwv which is so infuriating!!!!
That's me lol sorry 😅 I just hated how the few interesting parts were so short while all the bland parts were so long 🙃
Thanks Bella, ive been having an awful week, your videos always bring me joy
I hope the weekend is a bit kinder to you 🥺🫶
@@throneofpages ❤️thank youu
i love stephen king but i didn't love misery either. i personally really liked cujo and pet cemetery by him if you wanted some recommendations for your next read. cujo is about a rabid dog, and pet cemetery is about grief and cats and human children coming back to life! great video again! hope you're doing well!
okay i've been convinced to read 'north and south' because of your comparison to 'pride and prejudice' and i need more of those vibes xD also no books read this month because of the worst bug i've ever had, work, and christmas gift shopping and crocheting. hoping for some good reads in december as i'm off for 2 weeks
i read secret history when i was not into annotations so now i wanna reread it too just to annotate it!! i love that book!!
Do it!! It’s so worth it 😩
your outfit is giving Katara rn and it's an absolute slay
BELLA NOOO NOW I'M OBSESSED OVER A BOOK THAT HASN'T BEEN PUBLISHED YET!!! I hope I can buy Evocation as soon as it's out and get it shipped to Brazil 😵💫
I've been wanting to read a good fantasy novel with a throuple or a relationship like that for AGES!! If you have any other recommendations like that I'll be forever grateful ❤
Future me is here after Evocation was published and read by me: I LOVED THIS SO MUCH THESE CHARACTERS AND THEIR RELATIONSHIPS 😭😭😭 I'M SO GLAD I GOT TO KNOW THIS BOOK BECAUSE OF THIS VIDEO
0:04 You are giving Midnights vibes girl 💫💙🤍
23:29 We love that for her💁♀💁♀
32:22 OMG HERE WE GO
34:27 Yeah, I need to get it asap
I love representing such an iconic album 😩✊
In the month of November I enjoyed reading Iron Flame, Belladonna, and finished Red Rising at the end of the month. Hoping for more good reads in December cause I have a lot plus three re-reads to prepare me to read A Court of Wings and Ruin in January.
Misery the movie is fantastic. The woman character played by Kathy Bates won an Oscar for her role. The movie is great.
My favorite book of november was the hacienda by isabel cañas, absolutely adored it!
TASTE!!
I loved Carrie by Stephen King but I read when I was a teen.
Anyway, nonfiction. Smoke gets in your eyes, The God equation, Say nothing, Nothing holds back the night, Ace, Women and power, The Great train robbery and many more
And memoirs - Dave Grohl, Trevor Noah, Evanna Lynch, Paris Hilton, Britney Spears and Tom Felton.
I love how much you love North and South!! I highly recommend the 2004 mini series, it's a masterpiece! I also recommend Middlemarch (the book and the adaptation) because I think you might really like that one too. Ps: you look amazing in blue!! 👏
Mini series ✍️ Middlemarch ✍️✍️ thank you for the recs!!
please bella, don’t give up on stephen king because of misery, is not very good, but try billy summers, is absolutely amazing
I’ll keep that in mind 👀
I just honestly love the way you describe books, you always make me want to read them - even when you don't like book that much, or when I have already read the book and I don't like it. I'm thinking, 'should I read it again???' (the answer is probably not) I also read GodKiller and Remarkably Bright Creatures in November. I gave them 4 and 5 stars. Another book that was high up there was A Tale For The Time Being.
Thank you so much 😭 I’m so glad you enjoyed Godkiller and Remarkably Bright Creatures!!
I read 12 books this november, two of which were around 900 pages long and I'm not sure I want to pick up a book at all in December 🥲
I am 7 books short from my yearly reading goal though...
I don’t usually read non-fiction and rarely like them if I do, I tend to DNF them 😂 BUUUUT this year I read I’m Glad my Mom Died and Dead Mountain and they were some of the best books i’ve read this year so far. So I highly recommend them ❤
I really enjoyed I’m Glad My Mom Died so I’m definitely going to check out Dead Mountain!!
Is okay to not like misery, to be honest I would even say that of all the movie adaptations of his novels, is one that people don't know so much about, usually people recognize It, the shinning, carrie and The green mile.
thought i was early but there are comments from hours before
needing more videos from you
I also felt really let down by Misery, but then I read Carrie this year and I really liked it. I think King may just be extremely hit or miss.
Uuu good to know!! I do love Carrie’s story (the movie at least 😂)
“a silly goofy classic novel” so true
i felt the same way with stephen king! my first was pet sematary a couple weeks ago and i was like .. i guess
What a crazy coincidence, I finished Misery last night! Advice for stephen king books: they aren't scary, idc what anyone says lol. I used to go in hoping I'd be scared but at this point I pick up his books and just expect entertainment. My fave by him so far is Carrie
That’s a great tip!! Thank you 🥹🫶
Maybe read the long walk by Stephen king. I didn’t liked misery either but I loved the long walk.
I’ll keep that in mind 👀✍️
The only book I read by Stephen King was Carrie and I really liked it, I feel like it was a good start
Have you seen Misery? Kathy bates was so good in it
I’m sending you love❤ yo are such an icon (:
I'd recommend the shining or pet semetary
I need to read a dowry of blood and then of course evocation when it comes out because you've completely sold me on it! "I suck at explaining stories" and yet you explained all of these books so beautifully that now I need to read them all! I will say I really enjoyed remarkably bright creatures, I gave it 4 stars because the emotional connection was really there for me (even if I did find Cameron to be really annoying at times) and I cried a few times but yeah I probably wouldn't pick it up again but would definitely recommend to people. I also finished my love mix-up last month and it was EVERYTHING (and pls that scare you talked about, it got me too, I genuinely nearly threw the book across the room until I kept reading 🤣). You had such a great reading month! My favourite book of the month was A Ladder to the Sky by John Boyne, it was so good and thought-provoking with an infuriating main character. Here's to hoping we all have a great reading month in December
I tried my absolute best 😩🫶🥹 I’m so happy you enjoyed remarkably bright creatures!! And the author of my life mix up DID US SOOO DIRTY THE SCREAM I SCRUUUMPT 😭😭😭😭
I’m going to be reading my first John Boyne in December wink wink, I hope I love it 👀👀
@@throneofpages if you enjoy it (really hoping you do) I also think you’d love a ladder to the sky!
Fun fact about North and South: the reason why the ending was rushed was because it was serialised in a magazine by Charles Dickens and he got fed up with how long it was taking to finish so he forced Elizabeth Gaskell to rush the ending🙄
NOT CHARLES DICKENS RUINING THIS FOR US 😭😭😭😭
So glad you enjoyed evocation!! I'm hoping I get approved for an arc. I read Gibson's other book that comes out in February - An education in malice. It's an incredible carmilla retelling. You should totally check it out!!
Immediately added it to my TBR as soon as i read “carmilla retelling” 😩🫶
I love memoirs for nonfiction. I highly recommend Im glad my mom died by Jennette mccurdy, she narrates the audiobook too! It's dark and funny.
The paris hilton audiobook is also a trip.
I loved im glad my mom died but I’ll definitely be checking out paris hilton’s!!
@@throneofpages it's kinda all over the place, but her childhood is super interesting and her narration of the audiobook is also great
Bella, this is really out of curiosity I wanna ask you. How do you manage to read so many books in a month? Like almost 2 days of continuous reading. And those books are thick enough!! Like how do you mange your job/college with reading??? I am really curious. I love K-dramas, books, etc, but somehow fails to keep up with the quantity game because of college and partially because of my ADHD😟😢😭
Thanks for this amazing video, Bella
about the stephen king review, i felt the same thing with the shining, i was expecting a really scary, horror read, and ... it wasn't 🤨but i've heard that 11/22/63 is one of his best books (i have still yet to read it, tho)
“The Happiest Man on Earth” by Eddie Jaku! I would highly recommend this nonfiction:memoir (: it displays one man’s view on World War 2 from the perspective of being a half Jew and German! His outlook on life is so beautiful and heartbreaking! I would highly recommend this book❤
That sounds beautiful 😭 thank you for the recommendation!!
@@throneofpages of course, I hope you enjoy it☺️❤️
hi hi ! great video as always
If you were to try Stephen King's books again I would recommend Pet Sematary 🙂 and even though it's not horror I would also recommend The Green Mile. I read that one last year and it was so sad but so good lol
You have a nice manga collection :) I read Spy x Family through the app with blue light filter on. Last month I reread some older manga series like From far away. Some nonfiction I enjoyed this year that I would recommend are: The Mirror of My Heart: A Thousand Years of Persian Poetry by Women, Humankind: A Hopeful History by Rutger Bregman and China in Ten Words by Yu Hua.
Thank you!! I’ll definitely be checking out your recommendations 💛
İ enjoyed Carrie by Stephen King
i just bought spy x family bc of you bella😭
there is actually a movie for misery thats really good
I’m planning on watching it!!
How did you choose the format of your books on storygraph? Mine doesnt cooperate at the slightest in that matter 😭
I mostly use the website and it lets me pick the format when I try to choose the edition of the book!
@@throneofpagesthank you so much 🫶
que app usas para ver las estadísticas del mes?? o las haces tu misma?? me encantan tus videooos
Storygraph 🖤
graciiiaaas
Out of 21 books I had the opportunity to read from my beloved Stephen King, I think you might really enjoy Rose Madder, Carrie or The Shinning 💞
👀✍️✍️
🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
as much as i hate non fiction, do i love Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer. Highly recommend for my fellow non-fiction haters
i’ve read so many stephen king books and the only one i liked was the shining. the rest wereeeee……..
im so glad someone else also felt underwhelmed with Vol.10 of Spy x Family cause it was B O R I N G sis
Right 🥲🥲🥲
🖤💚
does anyone got surprised by Bella's One Piece score?? lol
I haven’t finished a book in months atp😭😭 but I’m reading the phantom of the opera and I’m loving it, but like I’m suffering here💀
Ngl that book put me in a 6 month slump it wasn’t even funny 😭😭😭 ironically I tried rereading it a year later and loved it 😩
@@throneofpages I officially finished it last night and I’m finally feeling a bit more in the reading mood thankfully😭
@@seochangbinsarms OH EXACTLY 😩🫶
I’ve just started the vid, but I was thinking the other day while watching some of your older content, ”I wonder how many pages Bella reads in a year?” Then you answered how many you’ve read in a month. I just multiplied the amount you read for this month by 12 and based on that number you’ve read roughly 71,412 pages this year if not more. I’m wondering what the real number is!!
So far this year I’ve read 71,033 pages so close enough!! My mind is blown over how close your approximation is to the reality 😂
Stephan King meanders a lot, and is very slow paced sometimes. You might enjoy Delores Claibourne or the Shinning better
I'll check them out thank you!!
💫🌟✨ immersive ✨🌟💫 lmao I forget words all of the time and I only speak one language 😂
Ngl it still took me a while to figure out what word I was trying to say 💀💀
Im so early!!!
You show watch the movie of “Misery”
I plan to!!
*should
Non fiction you may like. Furiously happy by jenny Lawson.
Your videos arrived to the middle east❤
I want to read Godkiller so bad 🥲
Have you watched Hunter x hunter, if not… what are you waiting for? I reckon you’ll enjoy it a lot since you like one piece
I have!! 🥰🫶
My goal is to finish The secret history before the end of the year
You can do it!!
10:42 Bella low key talking about herself (and us) ... /hf
I'm sorry, but this just had to be said 😭✨
In November, I read a lot of books, but never finish theme. Did not like them. The only book that I finished and LOVED is (We will not serve coffee to Spinoza) by Alice Cappagli⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Arabic translation.
I’ll be checking it out 👀✍️
The first and only time that I read Stephen King I was really disappointed as well. I read “Later” and ended up giving it two stars. So if will are going to try another one, I suggest to skip this one.
Stephen King: PET CEMETERY OR MR MERCEDES (pls)
Catherine the Great. It's better than the fictional show😂❤
Free Palestine 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸✌️❤️
I’m so happy you enjoyed Evocation! I have a digital arc for An Education in Malice that I’ve been putting off reading because I’m scared it won’t live up to A Dowry of Blood 🩸😭
Its the way I didn’t even know about An Education in Malice until right this second 🥲🥲🥲
One of my favorite books of all time is a nonfiction called a house in the sky. It reads almost like fiction (which is sort of heavy because of the content matter) but wow I highly recommend
