    Wow, I’m beyond impressed. This is a huge unhaul and while I know it’s hard on the heart to part with things you thought you’d love, I also know that it’s going to be a huge relief on your anxiety ridden brain to have these disappointments or mediocre reads out of your eye sight. I can’t stand having books on my shelf that I felt meh about or didn’t like. So I’m very impressed with this unhaul. Good for you! You did a fantastic job

    The Appeal is so much fun! It’s also a quick read because of the text/email format. There’s a character map and notes at the beginning to get you through all the characters. I think you should give it a shot!

    The Appeal was one of my top books last year! but it’s definitely an investment (it’s a slow burn and a huge cast of characters) so i can see why it wouldn’t be your thing

  • @the_eerie_faerie_tales

    Lol I preordered the next Finlay Donovan book today (coming out March 2024). I totally get why people have been giving up on the series but I just can’t; they make me laugh too much and suck me in for a binge read each time. I’d love a new bookshelf reorganization/tour since you’ve unhauled so much too

  • @brittanysettle
    @brittanysettle Před rokem +3

    Watching book unhauls is weirdly therapeutic - makes me want to unhaul my own! Forever going to apologize for pushing Spells for Forgetting 🤣 what a freaking gorgeous edition, though 😍

    PLEASE KEEP DARK ROOM ETIQUETTE, it was so good and emotional?!?!? But it was a beautiful story, it does take time to get into it and care for the character - but it gets better the more you read! 🤪

    @tewsimple Před rokem +1

    I liked The Appeal a lot! but I will say it takes a lot of concentration to get through - so many characters, so many e-mails, and a lot of little details add up to the reveal at the end. I was happy I read it but it may not be for everyone

  • @WatermelonSugarLover
    @WatermelonSugarLover Před 11 měsĂ­ci

    Yes, please keep doing unhauls!! I love those videos. It’s fun to see if any of your reasons for DNFing are the same as me.
    I feel the same way about YA books. I’m 32. I bought a ton in 2019 because I was still reading that age group and then in 2020 my reading tastes changed and I only read Adult books now. Like, I used to love YA romance but nothing beats Christina Lauren or Casey McQuiston or Emily Henry now 😍 I could go on lol. I just find that I’m so done with angsty teens and high school drama. That’s partly why I started One of Us Is Lying and then DNF’d it… because it was to teenage-y and I couldn’t connect with the characters. I feel at this point, I can relate more to other adults and other adulting situations.
    Partners In Crime was such a disappointment 😫 I just felt like, yes it’s fiction, but why are the MC’s able to sleep together on the run?? If you’re that freaking worried about being chased, it just felt really exaggerated. I finished it, but it was hard. Definitely not a favorite.
    I did love Mistakes Were Made, but I like your reasoning why you were unhauling it. Keeping all your 5 star hits instead of something that was enjoyable but not an all time favorite makes sense. I think I just loved the characters relationship in there. But it was a little too spicy for me 🔥

    A History of Fear was my favorite book that I read in March! Being in the MC's head is wild, and its exploration of religious trauma and queer identity was so impressive to me. I still think about the final line of the book all the time!

  • @JanAgaton
    @JanAgaton Před rokem +1

    omg I loved A List of Cages too and have been eyeing Dark Room Etiquette for so long! Spells for Forgetting had a good twist, so if you want a spoiler just lmk; it's honestly not worth going through the rest of the drama hahah
    heartbroken about The Villa though 'cause I loved the gothic vibes of that one! lol also I'm definitely gonna be reading A History of Fear this year and I really hope I love it 🥲

    @katsbookreviews6050 Před rokem

    I only recently read Mirrorland and ended up giving it 5 stars! It did take me a while to get into it but I am so glad I persisted, I read it while also listening to the audiobook I found I couldn't just listen to the audiobook because of the strong Scottish accent and I couldn't understand it but the plot twists in this book! it was so good at the end.

  • @itskatehill
    @itskatehill Před rokem +1

    Janice Hallett's second and third books are much better than The Appeal, in my opinion. I'd read one of those instead! The Mysterious Case of the Alperton Angels is the most recent. The Twyford Code is her second book. Both of them were much easier to get into because she focused more on characters, but they both do have that same mixed media format. Both of them had some pretty great twists and turns. Much more surprising and unconventional than The Appeal was, and they both read more like puzzles.

    @tinadoesntreadthatmuch Před rokem

    Okay, so for the Dark Room Ettiquette - I’ve read it and I’ve given it 3 stars. The writing was very hard to get used to and the protagonist was very unlikeable. It makes sense for the plot for him to be that way though. And it was interesting to see him change as the story progressed. It is pretty interesting story after all. However, it gets VERY repetetive in the middle and it only picks up in the second half after the plot twist - and the plot twist was decent, I think the built up to it was actually fantastic but… just a bit too long. The whole thing just drags too much in my opinion. Like, it is a good story and all that but it just like… kept repeting itself a lot kinda. I wish it had been written by a more skilled writer tbh. I think it’s good but not so good that you’d like to prioritize it over so many other books you have on your tbr. In my opinion the verdict would be to unhaul it 😅

    I see they're mostly romance novels. Do you think you're buying fewer romance books now that you're reading more horror books? I realized I was reading way less literary fiction when I started to read thrillers. I don't think I've read one LF book this year. 🤔
