I just wanted to say thank you. This year i started watching your videos and then a few other BookTubers and you’ve all inspired me. I have had the goal of 12 books in a year for YEARS. Last year i read 2. The year before 1. This year I have already finished SIX books! It’s crazy and i am so happy to be reading so much. Meeting new characters, discovering new worlds, different lives. So thank you, thank you times a million. ❤
This makes my heart so happy 🥰 I’m so glad you have taken up the hobby & are loving it!! 🥹💕
Sending positive vibes that you have a better reading month in March 🫶🏻
Thank you so much lovey!! 🥰
I didn’t absolutely love addicted to you either but once you get past the first 2 it’s so so good!!!!!!
Yes!! I hear this a lot. I’m excited to keep going in the series 🥰
first two books in the addicted series I gave three stars! it gets better in my opinion; so know ur not alone in that feeling. hope ur not feeling discouraged on continuing bc it’s amazing!
Yes!! I hear so many people say this. Thank you 🥰
I know for some people the first book of the addicted/Calloway series wasn’t for them but the next books make up for it!! Don’t give up these books changed my life!!!
Yes!! I hear they get better as you go so I’m excited to see what’s next!
My. March Tbr:
- legendborn
- defend the dawn
- a curse so dark and lonely
- six of crows
- crooked Kingdom
- the switch
- mr wrong number
- sundered
- the clan of deception
- miss you
- girl online
- angels and demons
- lying in wait
- fly away home
- the selection
- shatter me
Six of crows and crooked kingdom are my favs ❤
so excited for you to start them😭👍
@@atrixsea so many people love them..
Looks like an exciting tbr!
@@alexaraye yesss it is
I loved „Love on the Brain“ for some reason I was so into it. But for me everything that Ali Hazelwood writes is a 5 star for me even the novelas.
YAY! I am here for this! The Do-Over was 5 stars for me 🙈
and I am 5 star trigger happy too
That’s amazing!! It was such a cute read 🥰
I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels iffy about hyped up books and whether or not I should read them. And I’ve commented about this before but I feel like the fact I am waiting for eye is kind of like oh everyone is reading and I can’t yet because I can’t clearly see, so yeah. You’re my favorite and I hope you have an amazing rest of the week 💌✨!
Thank you!! I absolutely agree 🫶🏻 have an amazing week! 🥰
im sure you'll be OBSESSED with things we never got over by lucy score !! im also obsessed with ur channel
Hopefully you have a better reading month in March and find some 4 or 5 star reads!
Thank you!! 🥰
One recommendation I haven’t seen in so long is “The night circus”… this book got me into reading a few years ago and I love it so much! Because there are no main characters. There are so many POVs and tithe characters you think are side characters become really important. I would love to see a reading vlog for it!💖
That sounds so fun & interesting! I’ll have to check it out!
Hey Alexa! Can you please tell what things you use to annotate your books like the tabs or which pens you use etc?!!
Absolutely! I actually have them all linked under my amazon store front 🫶🏻
@@alexaraye OOo..just a suggestion...Perhaps a vid "How you annotate" and what pens/highlighters/tabs, etc. you use... :)
Just remembered sorry for 2nd comment but “the do over” reminds me a lot of “before I fall” by Lauren Oliver which was also a movie. It’s a young adult romance about a girl reliving same day over and over again and I wanna say it’s also during Valentine’s Day but instead of her just relieving it she dies each day too. When you were talking about the do over I was like I swear it sounds familiar.
Yes!! I’ve seen that movie too! Very similar vibes
Alexa , just wanted to say how grateful i am for ur videos. I have not been feeling well the past few days and your videos have definitely helped me to push through. Thanks you so much, also you look so stunning as always💜
This is so sweet. I’m so sorry you haven’t been feeling well lovey 😔 hopefully March will be better & kinder to you! 🫶🏻
💖 I really enjoy the way you review books, it's not superficial like with other booktubers' reviews
Thank you so much 🥹🥹
Yay! I can’t wait to see what you read! ❤🎉
🥰🥰🥰
hey Alexaaaa!!💫 Thankyou sooo much for posting and making my day with your cute face and sweet voice.💝👀SENDING LOTS OF LOVE TO OUR QUEEN ALEXA!❣🌼
Thank you so much lovey 🥹💖 you’re so kind!! 🫶🏻
I also read Addicted to you and gave it 3 stars, but the series does get better!!
I can’t wait to read on!!
I originally gave Addicted to You 4 stars but over time I kept thinking about it and it stayed in my head rent free afterwards so I ended up changing it to a 5 star read! Also read The Do-Over this month and it makes me want to read Better Than the Movies!
I’m excited to continue on in the addicted series! I hear the books just keep getting better 🤭
💖 I always love your videos! I appreciate how realistic you are with the number of books you read and reminding others to be kind with themselves about the amount they read too. It’s helped me a lot! Keep being your wonderful self 🥰💗
Thank you so much lovey, that means a lot 🥹🥰
you inspired to me start posting book videos! i just posted my first one today which was a jan/feb reading wrap up! I didn't know if I should start a channel because I didn't feel like i read "enough" but watching your videos makes me realize everyone reads a different amount and i'm just happy to share what i've read! love your videos ❤
Aw YAY!! I’m so happy for you lovey 🥹💖💖💖💖
@@alexaraye do you have any tips for when you're just starting? I am not sure how to get more views/foot traffic to my account
Don’t worry lily and lo will win your heart over even if they don’t end up being your favorite couple they do redeem them selves!
I can’t wait!!
LOVED The Do-Over, it was good, amazing. I was kinda bored in the beginning but not bad bored. 😂🥰 Hope you have a happy March! I have a random YA romance rec just for you. If you like Bridgerton, can I please suggest The Davenports by Krystal Marquis? 💖
Omg!! I’ll definitely have to check that out because I love bridgerton!
ive read the first 3 books of the addicted series & I don’t get the hype at allllll 😭 I feel like I read the same book 3 times lol. i like lo but lilly…… def excited to hear your opinion on the other books!
I feel this!!!
After you finish the addicted/ Calloway sisters series you should read their kids book which is the like us series by the
same author. Also Some Kind of Perfect is the best book out of the whole series and revolve around the core 6 which is the whole family from the series. Also read the bad reputation series after addicted and calloway sisters it included the books Whatever It takes and Wherver You Are. The Whole Addicted series, calloway sisters, and like us series is really good.
highly reccomend you keep going with the addicted series!! you’ll find a new appreciation for the first book 🤍
Yes!! I plan on it 🥰
I'm positive that you will find a 4 star or 5 star read in March to make up for the amount of 2 star and 3 star reads in February! Nevertheless, a great reading month! I have read 5 books for Feb and I adored all of them, except maybe Love on the Brain which I enjoyed but some scenes really annoyed me. Anyways, looking forward to maybe your March TBR video!! Adore youu Alexa!! 💖💖
Thank you so much lovey 🥹💕
February was so tough for me in all aspects of life. As a result, I only read two books and one was a reread 😩
That’s still amazing!! 💖 I hope March is kinder to you 🫶🏻
Omg I loved the Love Hypothesis and rated it 5 stars but couldn’t get into Love on the Brain
Same 😭
Definitely suggest “the hating game” if you want a better enemies to lovers in a rom com.
And lol I also gave addicted to you 3 stars nothing really stood out to me besides Rose and Connor. But I also never continued with the series because I’m impatient and heard first 2 or 3 books were ok and then it’s like life changing and I know I would just skim book 2 after hearing that.😂 Maybe read “love kills” series by Brianna Jean. It’s only 3 book series so far not as huge but it also talks about addiction and in my opinion does it even better, not romanticizing it at the same time there’s a beautiful love story and lots of found family.
Thank you so much for the recs!! I’ll definitely check them out 💖 Addicted to You was okay… I hear the other books are so much better!
I did not expect the rating for Addicted To You. It’s personally still on my tbr but I know people really love this book.
Yes! Everyone raves about this series & although I rated it 3 stars, I did enjoy it! I’m excited to move forward in the series as I hear the books get so much better!
The first book is kinda just an introductory to the world & characters ☺️
definitely continue with the addicted to you series it gets so much better!
Yes!! I hear it just gets better & better so I’m excited 🤭🥰
i read a million kisses in you lifetime this month and loved it so much i highly recommend
I have that on my tbr 🥰
I had a few five star reads this month! My fave reads this month were Every Last Word by Tamara Ireland Stone, The Valentines Hate by Sydney Halston and It happened one summer! 💖💖
That’s amazing!! 🥰
I find it so funny how you had to put up the Marie Currie disclaimer 🤣 How often does that happen in life lolz. I havent read that one yet but I am going to this year.
I read 4 books :
-The clan of mist : 4⭐
-Too late: 2.5 ⭐
-Slammed : 3.75 ⭐
-today tonight tommorow: 5 ⭐
That’s amazing!!!
@@alexaraye 🥹🥹
I totally agree! Love brain was okay but I was way more into the side characters than I was with Bee and Levi
Yes!!! Same 🥺
Your videos make me so happy!!!! Thank you so much Alexa! Hope march brings you some 5⭐ reads!! 💖💖
Thank you so much lovey 🥹 I’m so glad to hear that!! 🥹🥰💖
Little tip in regards to ‘Last Chance Books’…. Do yourself a favor and watch ‘You’ve Got Mail…’. That is a classic romantic comedy. It may help..
I’ve actually seen that movie! & I really enjoyed it 🥰 this book on the other hand was not it for me.
Whats better then Being in the early 1k viewers!? Love your videoss there soo soothing🦋💕
You’re the best!! I’m so glad you’re here 🥰
@@alexaraye omg thanks for replyinggg🦋🦋
💖I am currently reading Love Hypothesis. I am really enjoying that one. Love on the Brain is currently on my TBR also. I may still give it a try 😊
I absolutely would!! A lot of people actually prefer love on the brain! 🥰
I did also got to finish the Dreamtime Series (Author - Stan Nicholls) and got over to the First Law Series from Joe Abercrombie but this could take awhile since the Books are almost all over 700 Pages :D 🤣
Omg!! Good luck 🥰
@@alexaraye Thank you =) I will take my Best to come through them. ^^
i hv love on the brain for a while and ngl i am excited to read it. lets see how i’ll like it 😭☠️
I hope you enjoy it!! 💖
@@alexaraye aahh thank youu🥹
Not only do you give good reviews you are always wearing the cutest clothes! Where is your sweater from? 💖
Aww thank you so much 🥹 my top is from american eagle!
💖 my January and February were the exact same way. I had three 5 star reads in January and bothering higher than a 3 star in February 🥲
Hopefully March is better to us!! 🥲🥹
i read circe by madeline miller and gave it 5 stars 💖💜 i got nearly halfway thru seven days in june by tia williams but life got in the way so i'm finishing it this month!
💖 Managed 4 books this month (still halfway through one of them!)
That’s amazing!!
You look so beautiful!!💓 I am going to read The do over so I am excited!💓
Thank you so much 🥹 I hope you enjoy it!! 💖
Was literally waiting for this

@Aayona Dwivedi all the best for your exams and my exam is on 14th may its nhcm jee, a entrance exam for hotel management
Good luck lovey!! 💖💖💖
@@alexaraye thank you so much you made my day now I am inspired to do extra hardwork😤
Connor is my favourite from the Addicted/Calloway Sisters series!
I loved Connor & Ryke in this book 🥹 I can’t wait to read their stories!
I actually rated the do over 5 stars, it was a fun little pick me up to distract me from life (which was rough at the beginning of feb when I read it lol)
Aw I’m so sorry lovey!! I hope March is kinder to you 🥺💖
Your thoughts on the Dover over is so good lol ! Like at first I was like 3 stars whatttt but after you said about you not being in highschool and stuff like that it made soo much more sense lol 😂
Yesss!! 🤭😂
I agree with you about the Addicted to you. I am more interested in the other sisters and Connor and Ryke. I am at the third book and it gets better!!! Lily and Lo grew on me, so don't be discourage by the first book. Btw, Love your videos
Yes!! I hear the books get better as you go, so I’m excited to see what’s next! 🥰
the absolute cutest thumbnail EVER 💗💗💗
THANK YOU SM 🥰🥰🥰
YES!! Yes, yes. Yes. Finally! Someone else that isn’t stingy with 5 Star ratings! I can get why some people choose to be rigid in their criteria for picking their ratings but it’s just not me. But when someone says I really enjoyed this one so 3.5 Stars. WhAt?? My main factor is my personal reading experience. In fact, in January I reviewed a book and said here’s several reasons why I shouldn’t give this 5 Stars. But here’s the like two reasons I’m giving it 5 Stars anyway. I stop trusting reviewers that constantly and consistently give 3 stars. 😬 I’ve found that when they initially review they say “I liked it, it was okay/fine so 3 Stars.”Then if they speak on it after some time, a lot of the times it goes to “I really didn’t care for this one.” So, you just didn’t want to be harsh. Be honest with yourself so you can be honest with people that check out your reviews. (That’s me speaking generally to everyone.)
💖 My favorite read was Daisy Jones and The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid
wishing you some 5 stars in march bestieee!
Thank you sm!! 🥰
Just ordered the do over!
So excited for you 💖
Read Twisted by Emily McIntire or any other of the Never After Series to give you a 4-5star read!! Having a mediocre book month is always a little bit of a bummer.
Omg yesss 🤭💕
I love your videos and oh how i wish that i could live in New York 🥹
Thank you so much 🥹💖
alexa read magnolia parksss, its so good but i want to hear your opinion !
Yes absolutely!! I’ll definitely do a reading vlog for you 🥰
Clicked within a minute and I'm so glad 😍❤️
I’m so glad you’re here!! 🥰💕
Magnolia Parks intimidates me! I think I'll wait until you've read it and see what you think. I trust your opinion! 💖💖
Aw!! I feel you! 🤭 I’m excited to read it in March though!
Alexa ! you should read Nightshade by Keri Lake! its a gothic romance.
I’ll have to check it out! Thank you 🥰
My fav read is today tonight tommorow
Loved it ❤️
Thank you sm 🥹
@@alexaraye 🥺❤️
I really want to read these
I think the 3 star ones are definitely worth a try 🫶🏻
@@alexaraye yess ❤️
Hi, hello bestie 🌸🤗.
I saw your review on goodreads and wanted to know why you rated it 2 stars, then I read it and I understood your rating 🤣. It was 'okay'
🤭💖
💖
💖💖💖
Funny you should ask seems interesting
It’s worth a read!!
I loveeeeeeee YOU! ❤️
I LOVE YOU!!
Alexa you never disappoint me with your vlogs and I love your vlogs so so much you are my inspiration and I wish you reach 70K Subscribers very very soon!💓💫😭
You’re the sweetest 🥹 Thank you so much lovey!! 💖
@@alexaraye my pleasure 🤗💫
Have you read or watch HeartStopper?(Just want to know!)
I have not, but I do have it on my tbr!
We’ll I definitely recommend it
Yeah I’m super wary of reading any YA books because I’ve been rating them lower.
I feel that way too /:
someone tell MY MOM to let me buy those books
Hahaha love it 😂
Alexa you should do a video where you keep reading a book and stop the video until you find a 5 star!! I’m begging 🫶🏼
I LOVE that idea!!
@@alexaraye I cant wait!!

🥰🥰🥰
Love you ❤️

You read 5 books in February? Many booktubers read, like, double, even triple, that. I read . . . _one!_ _Stolen Tongues_ by Felix Blackwell. Just a few final pages to go. Pitiful. 😞
That’s amazing though!! 💖
@@alexaraye: It took me a whole month to read one easy book of not even 300 pages with big printing. How is that amazing?
Sorry addicted to you .. didn’t work out for u .. I rated it higher mainly because I couldn’t put it down
I enjoyed it!! Just isn’t something that will live in the back of my mind 🥲
Ali hazelwood 🤢 I just can’t get into her stuff maybe it’s the novellas.
I hear a lot of people say they don’t like her novellas! I haven’t read them yet
