    • @Mybookishbehaviour
      @Mybookishbehaviour Před 5 lety +2

      For me it wasn't the story it was the ambiance. Think Tim Burton meets American horror story: the freak show edition..... A circus described as monochrome, all the tents hold all different circus acts and some are odd and some are very odd. The circus wasn't there yesterday but it's here today. I loved the ambience the story was just a little bonus lol

    I would DIE for a 4D Night Circus movie, to get to smell all the different scents of the circus, to feel a crisp autumn breeze on your face, maybe even get to eat some of the popcorn or the cinnamon swirls or the chocolate mice...Even thinking about it makes me want to burst to tears, I love the atmosphere of ~Le Cirque des Rêves~ so much!! (maybe a bit too much, I'm so attached to it oh dear lord) And it would be so nice to meet other rêveurs as well!

    Lush employee here with skincare advice! Since you mentioned having dry skin but still getting acne, how often do you exfoliate? Scrubbing your skin not only helps brighten since you're getting rid of the duller top layer, but it also can help with breakouts since you're removing the build up of dead skin cells.

  • @imaginariumarts
    @imaginariumarts Před 5 lety +4

    Thank you for also feeling how I did about night circus - liking the start of her world building and atmosphere. I was disliking that slow pace and then what I felt was a "lazy" choice in ending. Also, also IS THAT ALL THE SOUNDTRACK FROM THE SIMS GAME because i have definitely played too many hours of that. I tried really hard to like it, and I wanted to LOVE it (everyone who recommended it assured me that I would) but I thought it just fell so flat. I also didn't appreciate the strength she builds in Celia and Isobel and then reduces them to some Damsel type tropes (no spoilers so that's all I'll say.) I also love this reading challenge theme you'er doing!!! How cute is OWLs/NEWTs thing?! LOVE it.

    Yeeeeeeees it’s so much fun that you are vlogging!! I loved the first part with the organisation and the ending where you show the progress. Currently I finished Charms, Magical Creatures and another one but I forgot huh. I’m going to choose a career later because I first just wanted to read some books 💕
