Shout out to the lizard!!!!!
YES, I loved that little addition, made me smile so much along with already being blessed with the little clips of Haley throughout the video
Was just about to comment about that XD
REALL that lizard looks so adorable !
I'm sorry that I need to ask for an explanation, but could you please explain?
@@isabelguzmanmiranda5025 15:19 in the video :)
Seeing Lavender in cottagecore was so beautiful she looked completely aesthetic I dunno how to say it
But you said it? She looks aesthetic
@@exceptionallyriso it doesn't summarise my awe correctly😢
IKR???
One thing I would say about lady Danbury is she also plays a role in the 7th book
So when casting for the show they can't get someone too old because when season 7 releases in like 15 years that person would be... aged out of the role
aged out of the role bahahah 😭
i heard that the 4th season will be the last😭
Though the lady playing her is 61 a grandma age
Not necessarily. They could cast someone slightly older and use some makeup lol
@@Sophia-ww7lfWhere'd you hear that? I read that Shonda Rhimes said she and the others planned to adapt all the Bridgerton books. It would make more sense if there's at least two more seasons, for Benedict and Eloise, since they're very popular. I want Benedict's season especially. He's great as a side character but I'd love him to be the focal point for once lol.
0:51 ARE WE GOING TO IGNORE HOW PRETTY SHE IS???
She is so pretty tho
LITERALLY, she looks so cute in her outfit 🙈
ikrr literally so pretty 😊
she is the prettiest 😆😆
She’s gorgeous!
Penealopy's situation in the books kinda feels like Sophie from Howls Moving castle. In books n the movie she's been cursed of old age but it oddly empowers her with a unique sense of freedom elderly women get to have. When she looks her age there's this unspoken pressure to act or look a certain way which is a big part of her character's insecurity. With old age comes the freedom for her to be herself without the aspection and she's experiencing the joys of being a nagging old lady without scrutiny.
Though different it's interesting for concepts like these to get brought up in women literature.
Don't know what that says about me that I relate to this very much 😅😂
I thought of this connection as well.
@@bleachedout805 haha tq yus I wasn't overthinking to myself 🤣
so like she was cursed being fat is what you're saying?
@@Cherry-nu3uo I think you are stretching considering that the freedom penelope experiences due to her assumed spinsterhood than her age.
@@msk-qp6fn pretty sure that's what they mean and its not a stretch, sophie was cursed with being eldrly so this person is implying that being fat was penelopes curse because it's what kept her from having suiters which led her to spinsterhood. I just don't like the idea of someone comparing a whole curse that was meant to make sophies life horrible and howl not want her to being fat.
Collin looks so evil the way you drew him 😭
I know right lmao
Yeah he doesn’t look mischievous or playful…He looks straight up evil
FR LIKE WHATT
Tbf like the 3 eldest sons are fricking crazy jerks the the books (i haven't read Gregory's book). The show really made Anthony, Benedict and Collin more likebel and adult like even when they are all younger in the show (like in the books they are all 30+ but act so childish sometimes)
Lil bro is planning something devious
Or maybe just planning to pull a silly prank on his brothers I don’t know
the actor for penelope is like so pretty like i’m going insane
Frfr
me too... i haven't even seen remotely anything from the show, just this screensaver ad on my tv of it and i thought she looked so pretty and adorable.
Fr
Never seen brigerton but the close up of Penelope looks amazing! Your art style is stunning!
I just realized ive never seen her face before so the random face reveal left me in shock 💀💀
xD
She has shown her face before in past videos lol
@@Gimmyruinslives I don't watch her that often so I've just never seen her face before, shes really pretty tho!
@@sanneumi_ it's okay :)
I think that she's very pretty as well!
Same
The character's eyes in the movie glows a bright red, while in the book, his face is always shrouded in shadow. (I'm talking about the thumbnail)
XD very true!
What was the thumbnail? She changed it >_
@@OGCalicant its was probably the same thumbnail as the last Hazbin Hotel video
OH Book Penelope kinda reminds me of how I look more like me with my natural hair colour but also ah Penelope is such dear character to me
My brother is 6 foot and handsome, with green eyes, long lashes and named Collin so this definitely amused me to watch.
Oh 😳 interesting
@@P..i..a should I substitute good-looking or conventionally attractive? We got good genes in this family.
I’d link his channel but I don’t think he’d appreciate all the attention
@@P..i..amy friend had a crush on her cousin, it could be worse
@@P..i..a what's wrong with complimenting ur sibling with the most common adjective ever 💀
The reason I enjoy older adaptations (specifically Jane Austen type ones), is that the casts almost always look more realistic. By this I mean that old characters are actually old and wrinkly, "ugly" characters aren't almost always assimilated and cast as conventionally attractive, etc.
I really love this series because I have such a hard time picturing faces when I’m reading. I can only do it if I concentrate really hard. Most of the time they’re just faceless bodies in my head 😅😂
Me everytime im thinking a person:
Me too 😭
Maybe you could cover The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe? Or Charlotte’s Web? Any sort of childhood classic book would be fun ✨
PLEASE I would adore Narnia btb!
I don't really recall any of the main characters getting that much description
YESSS i love the lion the witch and the wardrobe
I just reread the books and anytime it mentioned that Lucy is blonde with long waves I had to readjust my image of her because the actress just took over the image in my mind!😆
Or for the school of good and evil
It feels like books are the fanfics of the show I think
Nah I think the show is the fan fix of the book
fr
The books came first. So the show in more like a fanfic of the books
i think what OP is trying to say is that the books can get really fanfic-y at times, not about it coming out first. if you were to watch season 2, for example, then read the book and you read shit like the original bee scene you'd be weirded out ++ how similar all the books are to each other (there's a good video on this), its use of tropes and the fact that every man is a rake and every woman is younger and 'pure', etc. it just builds up to a more fanfic/bodice ripper (which, well, they are) type feel than the netflix show.
Have you watched the dumpster fire fanfic that is the show's season 3? Not all the books are equal
Lady Danbury ended up being my favorite person both in the books and show. They picked a perfect actress to portray her.
yeah! i love her dearly :)
Yeah, if anything, Lady Danbury's looks are very much irrelevant. Some people have complained that the old lady acts "too sassy, too modern" for the time... But if you go to your Jane Austen, old RICH ladies sometimes acted like that because they could. Darcy's aunt Lady Catherine De Bourgh really talked without giving a s*** about other people's opinions. And Emma Woodhouse clearly states that "it's only poverty that makes celibacy unappealing" -quoting from memory, so probably wrong-. Which means that young women trying to marry, and married women of fertile age (all of whom required societal respect and had to act with certain propriety, because paternity DNA tests didn't exist yet, so their behaviour had to always be unimpeachable, out of the slightest sliver of suspicion) had to behave very, very well. Older women without money who depended on the favour of richer friends (who gave them presents of fish and game and stuff) also had to behave a certain way.
But, rich single ladies or rich widows? They could do and say whatever the hell they wanted, and considering most of them had probably gone through the previous stages of losing sleep because of what other people might have thought or said about them, it makes TOTAL sense that those women, at a certain age in their lives, said "f*** off, I'm going to go TOTALLY UNFILTERED now". I love them.
As someone who has read all the books, the men are just all walking red flags in the books
So true but that's okay it's not real life. Still, I'm glad they changed that in the show
Yeah in the show they are more likebel and in my opinion more attractive because they are more adult and don't have that much red flags
In the movies as well.
They’re just jerks.
@@factsadda-j5wno the mean in real life are worse
@@Imjustkendall yeah!
Omg.. I hardly ever see youre face irl and you are absolutely the most adorable person I’ve ever seen 😭😭😭
I think the more wage descriptions about the man in romance novels is there to leave some space for the readers imagination so that they can be attractive to any reader.
She is casted not as old so that the year gaps in the seasons wont affect her
Yeah I think also between the 'black don't crack' and makeup there's a good chance she is older than she looks rn
@@felixhenson9926i do feel like they could've at least done her makeup to age her up a little bit, obvs they cant cast someone too old and risk them passing away during filming the series but idk I just wish they'd made her look more wrinkled and definitely kept more of her book role. She's a great actress tho really captures the vibe! Idk maybe im crazy for that I just like getting female actors who are looking wrinkled or "imperfect" idk idk
@@lishanimations9852 if the show keeps going, I'm sure you'll get exactly what you want. I think she's great as is tbh, you still get the old vibe from her without needing the over-wrinkled look to tell you she's old. her maturity and wisdom carries her age through the screen rather than just her looks.
@@prancingsquid i still like her as is but im going to be honest it would just be nice to get to see women who look older and more weathered. I feel like theres an insane amount of pressure as a woman to look eternally youthful and as young as possible and i do not think I am wrong for wanting to see more wrinkles on screen and for older women to be allowed to look old af. I love her as an actress, I think shes doing a great job and as i said she does still capture the vibe of the character, i just wish they had used makeup to make her at least look a little bit older and that they would have given her more of her role from the book because i want her to shine even more because again i do like the actress. Hope this clarified my feelings more its hard to do in my non native tongue 👍
When I clicked on the vid, I didn't expect to see Lavender Town all kitted out and wearing theme appropriate attire and set; absolutely killing it in terms of style, but I digress, the art was wonderful as usual.
To say i needed a calming voice like lavender rn is understated ty✨
Lady Danbury is younger in the show because there is a time skip in the books that is not present in the show. Pen is only 20 in the show, not 28. I think based on that, the actress for Danbury is not too young. she may still be a few years younger but not more than a decade like you may have previously been thinking. I loved all the illustrations, you are very talented, love this channel!
I have *never* clicked on a video this fast
My feed has been full of negativity so much, I needed this
Lavendertowne’s drawings are a snack, but irl lavandertowne is a whole 5 course meal
This made me think that Anne with an E would be perfect for a By the book video!!! ❤️❤️
Ooo yes!!
By the Books is my favorite series of yours. My particular favorite is the Pretty Little Liars One. And speaking of PLL, you sould do a follow up to that one, since the new PLL is really popular right now. Do the other characters you didn't do in the first one (Alison, Jenna, Mona, etc.)
I would LOVE to see you do this with The Outsiders by S.E Hinton! Love the movie sm, but the actors look nothing like the characters 💀
SECOND THIS, PLEASE DO OUTSIDERS 🙏🙏🙏🙏
YES!!! LET’S GET THIS TO THE MOST LIKED COMMENT!!!! I REALLY NEED TO SEE HER REACT TO THE OUTSIDERS 😰😰😰
My friend loves the outsiders!
@@sweetparriz but we can only like the comment once each 😭 outsiders assemble!
THIS BOTHERED ME SO MUCH I LOVE THE BOOK
I’d love to see you cover good omens!! A lot of the fandom have their own personal designs for how the characters’ book versions, so it’d be cool to see your take :D
yes omg pleeaaseee do Good Omens!! ❤️😇😈
I personally would have made her arms lightly more chubby but other than that she looks amazing
Could do a by-the-book for Monster High? Monster high actually had a 4 book series written by Lisi Harrison that started in 2010. Unlike other franchises, the books were written as promotion for the release of Monster High toy line. However, the books were written during development of the toys and story so the author didn’t know everything and was able to tell a unique story. They’re very different than the show but I find them really endearing and nostalgic. I think it would be really cool if you drew all the characters in their human disguises and monster forms because they actually have to hide that they’re monsters during the story.
I didn't know there are monster high books and now I'm curious!!😊
I've read 2 of those books, and didn't know there were more than that 😂 I might pick them back up...
I absolutely ADORED the MH books omg!!! I had them all and re-read them a few years ago. They were indeed very different from the show but both were amazing in their own way
now i wanna re-read those books omg!! it'd be so cool if she did a video on them
Thank you for talking about how much of a red flag his temper is in the book! I love the show so I started reading the book and had to stop as soon as he bruised her, but it seems like all the other fans of the show also like the books and they don't talk about how toxic Colin is!
Love the amount of effort that goes into this series 😮 it's cool seeing the differences adaptations make
I loved the Penelope drawing it's so cuteee and pretty
My cat was watching this video with me and he was fascinated 😂 you have the Toby stamp of approval 🐈⬛
I missed this series so much!! It’s so interesting to compare the books to their adaptation, even in minor details. It’s surprising how often adaptions mess up details, unfortunately (We don’t talk about Percy Jackson movies for a reason).
my mom, aunts, and grandma have been OBSESSED with this series!!! I'm not old enough to watch the series but I love your interpretation and let me just say its reallllyyyyyy cute!!!!!!!
I love the cute little picnic that you had while reading.
I didn’t expect Bridgerton!! Super excited about this - also this is the earliest I’ve been to a video 👀
Penelope is so pretty both art and movie adaptation. I love the art for her headshot so much as well.
i’d LOVE to see you do something like this with some classic novels!! especially frankenstein since the book’s description of the creature is so different
DAWG U R SO PRETTY WHAT??? SLAY GIRL
YOU LOOK SO PRETTY AND ETHEREAL IN THE BEGINNING OMG
Absolutely LOVE this series! Especially seeing your interpretation of characters that are casted in adaptations to be more “palatable” to newer audiences, and representing them in a way that is both true to the books and gorgeous in your style! If you’re looking for new books for this series, I highly recommend Shadow and Bone and/or Six of Crows. Both are adapted in the Shadow and Bone Netflix series, which generally did a fantastic job at staying true to the work, while still having some significant differences in casting. Amazing work, as always! 🎉
I second this. More Six of Crows pls.
Wait you should do a good girls guide to murder next! I know you don’t take suggestions from just some commenter, which I get, but AGGGTM recently announced a live action and frankly I feel like the characters feel like slightly beautified? Like a beauty filter was placed on them?? Once again, I know you don’t take suggestions from just one comment, but I would love to see this done.
That one would be amazing!
That sounds so cool!
This is perfect! Can I recommend A Good Girl’s Guide To Murder? It’d be such a fun episode despite the show not coming out yett!!
do people forget that Julia Quinn CHOSE the actors herself??? The only reason netflix even got the rights to the show was because Julia said she needed to be apart of production. I get that making them match the book is cool, but Julia literally chose them 😭😭
Your by the book series is amazing!! I think a by the book for LotR or Shadow and Bone/Six of Crows would be really cool
Would totally love one for Six of Crows❤
I would LOVE to see a "By the Book" Installment of "Ready Player One." I liked the movie being one big shout-out to popular media, but the book was supposed to be a shout-out to 80s media culture, specifically with videogames, Kaiju movies, 80s cartoons, the works! I would love to see what you would make of the story's original characters.
I love this series !! PLEASE do interview with a vampire - it was adapted twice and I'd love to see your interpretation of the characters :)
I haven't actually watched the show, but my mom's loves it! Also your art of the characters are so freaking cute!! 🧡💚
My favorite video series is back! I really love your drawings, especially the ones you did for the Miss Peregrine characters.
Yay! I'm so glad to see this series again! It's definitely one of my favorites! Oh! You should do The Mysterious Benedict Society! Honestly, an amazing book series too, though I have my complaints with the show lmao!
"his resting face appears to be like mewing" I burst out laughing
I love this series because I cant picture things in my head, so actually designing a character that I can look at while I read is really nice. Currently, I'm reading The Hellbound Heart, because Hellraiser is one of my favorite series out there. I noticed that the characters are described a lot different in the book though, and I wish I had this sort of reference to look at when "imagining" a character, yk?
i just started watching bridgerton because my friend from work was hyped about the new season and i’m on episode 4 of queen charlotte (takes place chronologically after season 2 and before season 3) and omggggg so good by far one of my favorite shows so i’m glad to see this in my feed
Can we talk about how stunning lavender tone looks
0:42 awww you’re so adorable! ❤
I’d love if you did a By the Book of Stephen Kings IT! The book descriptions of the losers are soo different from the movies (especially the 1990 version!)
Please do Outsiders- especially Dally!!! ❤❤❤
YES I NEED TO SEE THE OUTSIDERS
YES!
YOUR SO PRETTY OML!!
0:27 No matter how many times I see pictures or clips your real-life self, I will never get over how gorgeous and adorable you are 🥺🥹💝
YOU ARE SO PRETTY OMFG
Princess haley omg 💖
I just got home from work, my mom is watching this show right now and this video is the first thing I see when I check my CZcams notifications that’s a crazy coincidence lol
By The Book! I'm glad this series is back. 💕
Also your Bridgerton costume is so fun! 🍰
you're designs are as pretty and well thought as usual^^
You should do this for The School For Good and Evil! The movie got so many things wrong and I would love to see you draw the characters!
I actually think that will be next!
@@LavenderTowne YIPPEE!!!
@@LavenderTowne if you do please also draw Cockroach-Agatha. They totally not included it in the movie, but Agatha does transform into a cockroach to meet Sophie (cause it's forbidden) and she is discribed so well.
@@LavenderTowne Would you please consider drawing the old, masked School Master/young Rafal? The script (NOT the actor) completely ruined his villain plot/characterization because his stated motives weren't the same as they were in the books, meaning, like Lady Danbury no longer being a mentor figure, his role in the narrative changed, unfortunately.
Lavender could do you do the A Good Girl’s Guide To Murder series when the TV show comes out in a couple days? Id love to see your interpretation of those characters!
CAN WE TALK ABT LAVANDERS OUTFIT?!?! SHE LOOKS SO PRETTY!!!
I love this art style so much
I think doing an episode on "A Wrinkle in Time" would be good. The mc's little brother's design changed a LOT from the book
I just got into Bridgerton last week and finished finished season 3 on Thursday. I just ordered the books! I do love the casting and Penelope's actress is incredible and so beautiful as well. They are all beautiful really.
I'm excited to see the book descriptions!
Yay new Lavendertowne vid! I love watching your vids while I am drawing
I completely forgot what my username was 💀💀
This is amazing! I fell in love with the concept, and honestly, I could watch you cover all the seasons up to date without ever getting bored.
I love the By The Booj series so much! I like how honest and true you try to stay to the book descriptions, because its so satisfying to see it all together as the author describes!!
I would love to recommend The Wheel of Time book if it hasn't already been mentioned for a future video! There is a live action series that follows the first book, and I believe there are massive differences between the book and the adaptation that would be interesting to see side by side lol
I love the dress! (And the art ofc)
literally just finished season 3 so this is perfect timing for me 🙈
I lovee all your videos, theyre all so relaxing; Your extremly calming voice, the quiet music in the bg that fit what youre drawing, and of course your really aesthetically pleasing art
It would be cool if you did Divergent! Ik it’s not a series, but there’s still a few movies.
14:50 , Black dont crackkkkkk ✨
You should do interview with the vampire!!
oh, i have a suggestion!
maybe the characters from the shadowhunters chronicles? :D that netflix show? the books (the mortal instruments by cassandra clare) are really fun and the characters are very interesting, if you want to do it it would be so awesome to see your turn at them!
Got City of Glass from the library, but I'm finishing the 2nd & 3rd books of Unwind before I'm reading it.
I'd love you to do this with Good Omens ! ^^
it would be so cool if you did interview with the vampire
Can I just say that your outfit is BEAUTIFUL!
wow? You totally got better over the years that Ive been watching your videos. It's noticable. awesome!
You’re so pretty Lavender!!!
So glad you’re making by the book content, how id missed this story.
Please please do Good Omens for this series 🥺
Your art is improving. Congrats.
I literally love your version of Colin the eyes are so good 😭
THE END IS SO CUTE!!
YES!! ANOTHER BY THE BOOK!!
Ooo you have got to do Narnia or Netflix’s Shadow and Bone next
Love this series please do more videos of redrawing characters your so good
10:21 IM CRYING OMG…he’s beautiful-
Do a video on Good Omens, book vs. tv show?? i think that would be very fascinating to see
I don't even know this book series. I just like LavenderTowne videos. :3
