    I'd like to see a video of you reading 4 books that you read back in 2016 and see how you feel about them in current time!

    I could never read 15 books in a month, I don't know how you do it! My goal for this year was 7 books, i've passed it already, but i only read like, 12 books. Great video as always x makes me want to read more...maybe I will.

    Wow Gabby, that's a lot of books! I finished my reading goal for the year this month and I am currently reading Everyone Here is Lying. I like to read the same books that you are reading; you inspire me. Keep up the good work!

  • @arabellee934
    @arabellee934 Před 9 měsíci +4

    Holy smokes, Gabby. That's a butt load of reading material. My reading goal was to read 3 books for the whole year. I have only read manga and whatever my school made me read. your video inspired me to broaden my horizons and try something new--even if it doesn't turn out to be a great book.

    Great wrap up Gabby ! I met Ashley Poston at Steamy Lit & got 7 Year Slip & Dead Romantics signed. I told her about you mentioning these books & that you liked both of them. So did I

    Fun wrap-up! I'm excited to read horror this spooky season. I also wanted to say that Rachel's drawings/art are so cute! She is super creative and I love the sticker set I got from her.

  • @sayyidahthewriter

    I agree with your take on Pageboy. I wanted to hear more about The Umbrella Academy, too.

    Have you seen the announcement for the Amazon Originals Creature Feature novellas yet?! They are being released on September 26th and are going to feature novellas by Joe Hill, Grady Hendrix, Paul Tremblay, Josh Malerman, Chandler Baker, and Jason Mott! I don’t know if they’ll be releasing physical copies, but they will be available on KU!

    Your experience with Hello Stranger was my experience with Things You Save in a Fire. That protagonist tried every one of my nerves to the point that I haven’t read a Katherine Center book since then.
    I absolutely hated One True Loves when I read it a few years back. I didn’t get the hype at all.
    I’m in the middle of The Seven Year Slip right now and I’m loving it too! The Dead Romantics is one of my faves (I think it deserves way more attention than it gets) and this one so far is living up to the expectations I’ve put on it.
    I hope you have an amazing time in Japan!

  • @tammyripp998
    @tammyripp998 Před 9 měsíci +1

    @rebekahmackenzie Před 9 měsíci +1

    Thank you for the wrap up! My favorite book of August was The Only One Left by Riley Sager. Honestly it's probably one of my favorites of the year. I gave it 4.5 stars. I sometimes get nervous to reread favorite books. I don't want to start disliking books that meant so much to me. But honestly I might reread some next year just to see.

  • @ashtonreads
    @ashtonreads Před 9 měsíci +6

    Thank you! I felt like the only person who didn't like Hello Stranger. I loooved The Bodyguard, but the heroine in this one was so immature and self-centered. When I got to the part where we learn she only feeds her dog random human food and won't give him dog food when he's elderly and sick (despite the vet recommending it) I was so over her.

    I also read Pageboy in August and I was also confused by the non-chronological storytelling style, but I did like the memoir overall.

    Your review of A Twisted Love Story has me glad that I decided to DNF it after 100 pages. It's such a shame since I've also loved everything else that Samantha Downing has written.

  • @lemongranger
    @lemongranger Před 9 měsíci +2

    Would love to hear your thoughts on Beware the Woman! It was a 5 ⭐️ for me and I haven’t heard any booktubers talk about it. It released this summer.

  • @Bookbonkers8439
    @Bookbonkers8439 Před 9 měsíci

    The reading pillow gives an optical illusion of a face. If you start at the corner as a chin and work up to a nose. It looks like a face. Spooky season is here.

  • @wallacejames221
    @wallacejames221 Před 9 měsíci

    Weird comment but be sure you're up to date on public photography laws in Japan. They're v different than in the States and a lot of vlogging stuff that's okay in the US isn't in Japan. Be safe!

  • @jamesduggan7200
    @jamesduggan7200 Před 9 měsíci

    Should you find yourself one night with an extra hour or two you could watch the film: The Seven Year Itch. I'm sure you'll like it. Take care!

    @erinsbooks Před 9 měsíci +1

    I liked reading the Seven Year Slip and I did enjoy re-reading One True Loves Again, but her later books are better. She did grow as an author. I didn't like the movie. I felt like the movie just kept hoping too fast from scene to scene that I didn't care about either couple because it was like, Oh not their married. Okay. The editing was bad. Nothing was a aloud to breathe. 😬🤐
