im dying rn at what ur putting for spice on all the books HAHAHAH
SAME😭
😂 and she is so serious about it!!
GUYS WAKE UP THE QUEEN HAS POSTED!!
fr just rose from my nap to watch this
This would raise me from the dead honestly 💀
Hahahahha omg yesssss imo Destiny is the 👸🏼Haley is Goddess 👸🏻and Sara is Priestess vibes 💃🏽🔥
Such wise, funny smart book girlies
And Rachel is definitely the princess!! 💕
I never get bored of watching your videos! also i love how you put spice ratings, I'm a reader who doesn't like spice, so it really helps!
same, its so helpful!
The sassy spice ratings / commentary ATE 😂
multiple drink girlies unite 🙋♀️🫡
Des is FEEDING us
every time you post i like set specific time in the day wheree i am cozy and comfortable and just sit and watch you talk. its crazy how i feel like you are my actual real life friend lol
I love how much more diverse you read this month (POC authors/ characters). Also, the spice rating meter is so funny!!!!
Destiney you should do a video where you have all of your tbr in goodreads and you read the highest rated!
she did do a similar video once! she did a reading the highest and lowest rated books on my tbr :) but i totally agree i’d love to see another from her!❤
Every time Destiny posts, it makes my day!
Love your reviews!! I was thinking a good idea for a tbr one month could be for you to pick 6-8 CZcamsrs to choose one of their 5 star reads for you to put on your tbr for the month and maybe that could help ya find one! 🤭
I’ve never seen the black cover of Ruthless Vows before, that one looks so much better than the white one to me 😂 you make me feel more seen about giving popular books everyone loves lower ratings ❤
Goes to show everyone’s taste is different and there’s no right or wrong 😊 I’ve read a few hyped books recently (Powerless, Divine Rivals and Fourth Wing to name a few), all of which I’ve found to be disappointing. Same with Project Hail Mary which I read last year. Other books I’ve really enjoyed (Lightlark and Nightbane) seem to be really divisive. Keeps things interesting!
i love des she's so comforting like she's such a girl talk type of book bestie 🫶🫶
I listened to Emily Wilde and I honestly think the audio made it 100% more interesting! Idk about everyone else, but audio has been getting me thru most of my reads lately.
I agree so much. I’ve needed audio to keep listening when I can’t read during the day or too tired at night.
I was basically going insane all month because THE NUMBER OF ASSIGNMENTS AND EXAMS I HAD. I did not have time to do anything except assignments for the entirety of march. Every single night was me up at midnight trying to finish an assignment I WAS BASICALLY DEAD
BUT I claim in April that I will have the best month ever so
YAYYYYY DES!!!! u are my comfort person and ur videos feel like home, thank you for being you❤
The Queen has posted! One of the things I love about her is that she puts spice ratings on the screen for each book. It’s so helpful to know if books are spicy or not and it helps me find out what to read.
I honestly love the way you described the emotional romance with Divine Rivals. You can tell how strongly you feel about emotional connections. Love you Des🥰
MARCH IS LITERALLY SO CHAOTIC FOR ME AND MY TBR ughhhh
perfect timing!! just as i sat down to eat lunch🥰
Great video 😊 I absolutely loved The Bridge Kingdom too. The 2nd book The Traitor Queen is great also. Happy reading 📚📚
I love how you talked about feeling the ambiance of the Bridge Kingdom while reading it. I listened to the audiobook, and almost every chapter started with the sound of rain and thunder, it really set the mood. I loved it❤
i read First Lie Wins this month as well and when you said “I actually have not thought about it since” it was like oh so that’s how you put what i thought about that book into words 🤣
You are quite literally my comfort CZcamsr❤
fully agree with your thoughts on emily wilde! the only reason I didn't DNF was because I switched over to the audiobook & was listening to it on 3x speed on NYE hahaha
Needed this today! Love your videos Des!!
Ruthless vows also took me so long to read. I literally had to get the audiobook to get through it quicker.
The intro is so real, I have a water and coffee next to me and I was just drinking some juice lol
Omg I'm so anxious today, thank you for uploading this is my happy place 🩷
i would sell my soul to see Destiny read The Count of Monte Cristo!! I think she would LOVE it, it's the perfect story of love, betrayal and redemption, just the greatest revenge story ever told!
thank you bestie des for blessing us with a video today 🫶🏼
“That may be dramatic, but that’s how I feel” 😂 ME
A love song for Ricki Wilde by Tia Williams was a 5 ⭐️ for me! Unique love story that takes place in New York City
you look so stunning! it's always a good day when princess Destiny posts
i love when des posts it make my week better ❤
Omg yes ❤❤❤ love getting notifications when you post its like the best ever ❤❤❤❤ love this video

I enjoyed The Fake Out and Behind the Net!
I adore Des😂❤ I’m sending Des and all of you love (:
I’m so happy you loved the bridge kingdom! I liked it but I liked the second book even more🥰
The spice additions had me LOLing
I read remarkably bright creatures this month & I loved it 🥹
Love your vids destiny!
Thank you for doing the spice rating!!! As a lover of clean reads. This can be a help!
hoping this gets me out of the annual march into april reading slump
Wrap ups are so interesting and helpful and dont worry some months just feel like they are going on forever❤ Totally understand you
18:09 the best romance books will use a trope, then dig into the root of that trope, and base their characters around that-for example, the miscommunication trope is based around a *fear of vulnerability* and Sally Rooney does a great job of showing how these characters suffer from fear in their young adult life while apart, which makes the unspoken tension so much more believable when they’re together, if that makes sense. The miscommunication trope only works in this context-if a romance uses the miscommunication trope but the main characters have no fear being vulnerable/speaking their mind in other ways, then the point of the trope misses the mark and falls flat. Any trope can work if the root of why it exists is studied by the author and applied accordingly.
I LOVEEEEEE YOUR HAIR!!!!
the spice description 😭
Here’s how to get a five star book based on how it works for me! First i just know my reading tastes so it’s easier in that sense and I dnf books that I’m not enjoying or think aren’t going to be very good and I only try and pick up books i think I’m going to love verses picking up subpar books… idk if that’s helpful but it works for me so far this year I’ve had nine five star reads and that’s because I don’t read a tone of books that are three stars! Like I only want read something I think is worth rereading and recommending to others! And most three stars don’t fit that category for me!
definitely a multiple drink girly! me - water, coffee & a poppi always 🫡
I 100% AGREEEE!!!! March was so long I read a lot more than usual
Praying that you find a 5 star read this month 🫶🏼
For an emotional romance with broken people learning self-forgiveness that's set in New York, I suggest The Butterfly Project by Emma Scott. It's one my fave romances ever, with that cozy city holiday/winter vibe. Has an artistic element too.
April is for 5⭐️ reads, it’s happening Des ☺️
Your videos are literally saving my days 🫶❣️
I am also a multi drink girlie and I get so judged! I was visiting a friend at her college and we went to a burger place. I got a combo and asked for a coffee and water. The cashier was like, wait do you want the water in place of the drink with the combo? I'm like no girl I want the coffee AND a cup for water. I'm ALWAYS drinking water and I don't like pop and try not to order it so I love when places offer coffee or a shake in place of soda. But other drinks don't quench my thirst like water does so I always have water too.
YOU ARE THE QUEEN
Love the Channel des...Keep it up!!!
don’t worry bestie i just had my first five star read this week, so there is still hope!!
I seriously think there was something going on in March! So many people had a rough reading month!
Destiny… you HAVE to read zodiac academy i think you’d love it and i just finished the second book and it was just soo good 💗💗💗 so happy you posted as always
Des would hateeeeeee the zodiac academy 😂
I'd like to see her opinion!
***Bridge Kingdom...add to cart***
The Bridge Kingdom 🙌🏻 It’s definitely under-hyped.
Destiny posts and I am SAT 😌🪑
I really liked The Neighbor Favor! Im glad you enjoyed it.
Every time you film in this spot and I see the fairyloot edition of the 7 year slip in the background I die a little inside 😭
Girl i NEEED to know what u ask for when u dye your hair. like OMG! UR HAIR IS GORGEOUS !
never been this early in my life hahaha !! 😅
can’t wait to watch 😊
I love the spice descriptions 😂 ‘it’s YA they kiss’
This is my second videos of yours and I know I’m gonna like your channel because we have similar rating for books. Especially ruthless vows. I was soooo disappointed!
The part when she says “hopefully that one eats” is cute 😊
begging you to do a reading vlog branching out into some other genres (graphic novel/manga, horror). I'd love to see it!!!
Hi Des, I love being early!!! Also, for Happily Never After, you put adult fantasy instead of romance😭, love you!!
I agree about The Midnight Library, I don’t see what all the hype is about! It was… fine? 🤷♀️😆
i felt the same way about happily never after!
I was reading Emily Wildes encyclopedia of faeries
for another book club I’m in, and I’m soooo glad that I chose to listen to it on audible instead of reading it physically. I definitely don’t think I would have been able to finish it if I had to physically read it.
Love your vibe 😂❤ always 💯
oh my GOODNESS THATS THE EXACT SAME REASON I DNFED Emily Wildes Encyclopedia of Faeries, glad to see people feeling the same! amazing vid as always Des!
i had my first 5 star read for this year, this month. its 'she's gone' by david bell and you should sooooo read it if you haven't. SO GOOD got me out of my reading slump
I have only had 1 5 star so far this year, so I feel you!
i also haven’t had a good 5 star read lately!! the last 5 star read i had was the first / second crescent city book and nothing has really hit since. all genres… just super predictable and not pulling at the heart strings.
I almost didn’t finish Emily Wildes encyclopedia of faeries but honestly I’m glad I did because for me the book felt good once I finished it. I’d give it a chance to finish it up at some point especially since you made it so far.
I only read 2 books in March, I did get out of my reading slump though. I am happy about that..
You should try Crimson Moth/Heartless Hunter. I read it in March and it wasn’t quite a 5 star but it was really good & I could see it being a 5 star series for me. Also Lightlark & Nightbane, if you’re in a fantasy mood! Girl, Goddess, Queen was good too.
