Destiny deserves a STANDING OVATION for the amount of time and effort she put into this video 😍

FR let’s normalize the entire book being good and not having to wait until the end…what am i doing then? 😭😭😭
FOR REAL. I feel like I've read way too many books recently where we start with a good premise, then it's just blah for most of the middle, and then I'm supposed to care when they finally get around to making it good for the last forty pages.
Me rn reading Nettle & Bone.. I was so psyched to read this book and now I'm forcing myself to finish this book to find something that really makes it worth while.. And I'm 70% done and I really just don't think the ending will change my mind about how boring the book is. Even if it's a great ending..
A lot of people have looked to you, Sara and Hailey for their recs. I bet you saw that. Good job, ma'am.
The amount of work you put into your videos is insane
Truth
So so true
This video saved me from dying of boredom
Destiny, Haley, and Sara are our life support
So real
your honestly so real for that
TRUE
I think this research confirms how insular the online book community can be and how goodreads (which is owned by Amazon) promotes specific books for Amazon sales.
I’m so glad you loved Yellowface! It is just soooo good and so different. Her writing is lyrical and beautiful. The Poppy War by her is so good but a LOT. I feel like you would like it!
53 minute video from Destiny? This made my day! And if you haven’t read the Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer yet you have to! It’s a mix of fairytales and Star Wars! It’s worth your time!
Ah I love how mixed this video is! It’s nice to see you branching out and reading other genres 🫶🏻
I loooooove how destinys videos are long and not just 15 minutes. She is my comfort CZcamsr for sure
Sameee
Destiny really said ✨let me explain myself✨The research in these videos are unmatched
girl you went INNNN on the research. that must’ve taken you awhile to compile. thank you for all your hard work des!
my day gets instantly better when i see that destiny posted
Des is super consistent these days, I am loving it!!!
A 53 min long Des video is perfect for unwind time before bed. Hope you’re doing well, Des❤
Hi destiny!! You’re literally my fav book tuber I am obsessed with your videos and I love you personality and editing!
This is a great video to remind folks that recommendations are just that, recommendations. Whether or not you enjoy a book is 10000000000000% up to you and your personal taste. Social media is such a double edged sword when it comes to book recommendations and/or hype.
DID ANYONE NOTICE HOW FREAKING WELL THE MUSIC LINED UP WITH HER MOVEMENTS WJEN READING FIVE SURVIVE OMGGGG 41:20
Bright Young Women was one of my top reads of 2023! I do think it’s mis-marketed as a thriller when it’s really a critique on true crime, but all goes to show that reading is subjective!
I'll definitely take in this perspective when I go to read the book ! thanks for this, i feel like this is genuinely helpful to some people for this book
It would be nice to see more diverse reads
Definitely
if you haven't read the unmaking of june farrow yet you are MISSING OUT. I've never been so obsessed with a book. the easiest 5 stars of my last two years of reading.
i keep hearing good things about this one
des i absolutely adore your energy!!!! keep going making videos im enjoying it sm!!!
immediately clicked as soon as the notification popped up because i love you that much des ❤ thx for always making my day a bit more fun🫶🏻
aww I loved One Dark Window! So different from other fantasies I read, haven’t started the second but I heard it’s so good too!
i think it’s another cruel prince situation people go into it for the wrong things and get disappointed. sometimes books don’t have to have a heavy romance to be good😭😭
This is such a cool video idea, can't wait to see how it works out!
I like how she organised her shoes. Beautifully colour coded
52:30 i love how you were probably going to beat yourself up and caught yourself… like YES YOU SET THE RULES
Nobody I MEAN NOBODY puts the work into their videos that Des does.
Ahh your 2022 reads from last year is one of my favorite videos glad to have a new fav 🫶
Thank you for telling us about Pair Eye Wear. Every time I see you in those clear pink glasses, I'm dying to know where you got them. Now I can finally buy my own pair. ☺
I’d love to see a video of books no one is talking about lol. Everyone reads the same thing
yes destiny with the long videos recently love ittttt
incredible video bestie!! i’ve thought about reading a ton of these & ur thoughts def helped me choose which ones to pick up :)
your editing is top tier 💅 down to the book close at 41:27 💕
another amazing video, on so many levels. thank you again and again for the amount of care and TIME you put in. I get so happy every time you post
i watch your videos all day while i work from home and they bring me so much joy!
i ate up one dark window and two twisted crowns last week! i definitely recommend giving the sequel a try, it's better than the first book easily
i wish i had even half your drive and dedication when i was 20. you’re KILLING it babes proud of you love you mwah😘🙌🏻✨
the thoroughness and dedication in selecting the books Des 8 👌🏾
the dedication is insane with this research
I honestly can not tell you how much I LOVE your videos and how much better they make my entire day ❣️
This was a great video, your hard work always pays off❣️❣️
I love Pair! I've had them for years now I have blue light with my prescription 😊 I wear the Larkin ❤
YAYYY NEW DESTINY VIDEO!!! luv u girlie
Yellowface and Educated are both excellent. The best memoir I’ve read is “Know My Name” by Chanel Miller.
I consider "Know my Name" to be the best memoir I've ever read too. It was amazing
Dude the editing is SO good
i loveeeee the long videos for cardio entertainment 🫶🏻
This comparison across social media platforms is interesting. I lurk on all of them but don't really post about reads anywhere except GoodReads. So I wonder how much how people talk about books or review books skews public awareness of books and also skews who wins the GoodReads awards at the end of the year. Chicken or the egg situation!
The research. The honesty. The raw emotion. 10/10.
53 mins?!! so excited for this video ❤
I just want to give you such a big hug danessy, like your so incredibly strong and amazing and always make me smile and feel great, im so sorry you have a toxic home life, you deserve so much more! I'm crossing my fingers that 2024 will be your year, and more brands will give u the recognition you deserve! your authenticity is inspiring and ur perseverance is even more so! sending love and virtual hugs, and manifesting the best for you!
Why are you saying she has a toxic home life?
YESSSS IVE BEEN WONDERING WHAT VIDEO U WERE MAKING. SO EXCITED
I know this is so random and lowkey so observant, but the dramatic sound effects on 41.30 when you finished ‘Five Survive’ and the boom when you closed the book. *chefs kiss*
LOVE YOUR CONTENT BTW! Thank you so much for constantly giving us great content! 🫶🏻
The creativity you have just to be able to come up with this video is amazing. I haven't actually read any of this but One dark window and Yellowface are high up my tbr.
53 MINUTES, des youre cray and i love you for it
love your hard work des!
Thank you so much for your hard work Destiny. ❤️
completely agree with not expecting so many things in 5 survive to be in a YA book!! For me it made it so much more thrilling because I was like “no I don’t think that would happen it’s a YA” then BAM
This scratched such a deep itch in my brain. You really went up and beyond for this 🙌
Also, reading a bunch of CZcamsr books (Drew Gooden did a video on this) would be so fun to see from a booktuber, and I think you would have really hilarious insight! Love your videos!!! 🩷📖
I was so bored before watching this but this video is so relaxing! Also an hour long vid from destiny?! Thanks Des ❤
the amount of effort that had to have gone into this video is insane!!! loved it!!!!
i read educated a couple years ago in high school, and as someone who lives in idaho, like she did, it was super interesting to think about something so life changing and vastly different from my life happening in such close proximity to me!
destiny babe infamous means known for a bad thing so when you say infamous as reference to holly jackson its not what u actually mean
Notorious is a good replacement lol
cant wait to watch this tomorrow at the stairmaster THANKYOUUU DESSS ❤❤❤
I watch your video even if I'm doing school works to keep me motivated!
upload on my day offf YASS 🎉
Enjoying my dinner over a nice 53 mins vid from des. I love life
And i was wondering where you got your glasses from they're so cute! Also watching this video right now hopefully it helps me get out of this reading slump you always give good book recs and the best reviews!
I’m so excited to watch this
I'm normally a silent follower but I just wanted to say how much I appreciate all the effort you put in your videos❤️you deserve so much more followers you're an amazing youtuber!!! Love you🫶🏼
Destiny thank you for your work. ❤

loooooove long videosss, make my day every time
I am so excited. A video thats 50 minutes long😮❤ Love your glasses. They look so pretty as always
I neeeeed these long videos, thank you 🩵🩵
uhhh I really liked that you showed the books with the rating at the end🥰
the patience you have for picking these books im amazed
Educated was my favorite read of 2023!!! Fiction and nonfiction included. It is AMAZINGGGG. Everyone needs to read it
I totally feel the same about Yellowface, I couldn't put it into words like you did, but same girl, same! I love all your videos!
Since you are reading more memoirs I’d like to recommend one of my favorites, the distance between us by Reyna Grande. I read it years ago but it has had a special place in my heart and mind ever since and I think it’s a book everyone should read.
I hope you know how much we appreciate the amount of time & effort you put into researching, filming and editing your videos
Hey Des!! If you see this, I would love a video entirely dedicated to audiobook recommendations!! It’s so hard to find good ones/best services that offer them
Id recommend the family game audiobook! It was so good and the author narrated it!
Good apps that offer audiobooks that I use are Hoopla and Libby, both are based on your library card and they have a decent selection of ebook and audiobooks. And they are free which is nice. I read a lot of audiobook and find them to work well and have most of the book I want to read.
Hopes this helps
(Also I agree, Des should do a video dedicated to audiobook recs!)
I NEEDED A DES VIDEO TODAY🥹
a new hour des video?!??;!;!:! i am SAT!!
I love the video Des! And I hope in 2024 that we can normalize talking a lot about good books, even tho we didn't give it 🌟5 stars🌟
A 53 minute video for Des - magic. Also, does anyone else really want to know where her bookmark is from! Like, it’s so pretty!
I have not read yellowface and don't think I will it doesn't seem like one I'd like but I'm glad people have enjoyed it.....I absolutely love your videos❤ I watch a few youtubers and you all are my favorites I don't have just one.....but your videos are just what I need especially with this reading slump but thank you for another great video ❤
read sorcery of thorns bestie!!
