noticed the shelf of Jackson immediately and started crying haha. Been a watcher for a long time and he was always the sweetest cat, so I can only imagine what a hard year it's been for you dealing with his loss. Its nice to see that little space there honouring him ♥️🐾
💜💜💜💜
I feel like Hailey should make a podcast. I love listening to her talk about pretty much anything 😊
I believe she has one through her patreon.
Was waiting for this one! Loving the cozy background xx
Girl, whatever makes you happy. I'm excited you will still do some bookish content, but I'll watch whatever you post. Live your best life.
I love all the new changes. You are always delightful.
I love how you smile while talking about your favorite books
So nice to hear from you about books again 🥰 I'm glad you had a good year and you're finding things that make you more happy. keep going!
I am soooo excited - and thankful - for more vlog content. I have been absolutely adoring your vlogs this past year, Hailey. They're fun and insightful and silly sometimes but I always learn something and they're just so relaxing to watch. So happy you're continuing with it.
Also YAY you got your ring again!!!
You're the person on CZcams whose reading taste I align with the most, so I came out of this video with so many recommandations 😍 Most of them are books that I haven't heard of, so I'm excited to add them to my TBR!
wonderful to see your fave reads! thank you for sharing🥰📚✨
Hailey’s posts always make my day 🩷
I'm so sorry for your loss. She would be so proud of you!!!! ❤
Hi Hailey, i just want to say i love watching your book videos, some of the videos where i got my recommendations on what books to read next are from your videos,
I would love to see more of the TBR videos that you do, or books to read in 2024 or even YA books to read in 2024.
New to finding you from scrolling best yearly reads videos…but gotta say the appearance of Archer & Charlie made me subscribe! I have an almost 5 mo. old mini long-haired black & tan female named Piper (& have had several other standards in the past)!
Omg. I was introduced to the Wishing Game because of you and that was immediately my favorite book of 2023! 5 STAR read. 🥰💓💓💓💓💓 I can't wait to read some of your other favorites!
I've put lots of these on my TBR and I'm excited to read all of these because they do sounds amazing 😁
I looooove your videos!! ❤ So happy your excited about making videos! All the best for 2024!! ❤
So excited for the videos to come this year!
always love your videos hailey!! take your time, we will always be here to watch and enjoy your releases
Your look is on point here 🤩
You look happy! Can't wait for all the content coming in 2024!
Great to see book content again!! Looking forward to seeing both vlogs and books stuff, it’s all so delightful and helps motivate me to read and clean, so thank you!
Congrats on all the reading this year, i’m just cussing if these books are from December 2022 to December 2023 of January 2022 to January 2023??
Thanks for all the content and looking forward to 2024! 🎉❤
You got your ring!!! 💍
I found recently too that with my undiagnosed ADHD that audiobooks work better for me. I also am slower at reading physical books but when I can't stay focused it makes it 10x harder. Audiobooks allow me that time to do other things while getting some reading time in so my ADHD isn't too uncontrolled.
2023 turned out to be the year that changed me the most also. In March I lost my cat best friend unexpectedly so I understand your heartbreak 💔.
I read The Dictionary of Lost Words and it was definitely one of my favorite 2023 reads. I didn't know there was a second book tied into it though so I will definitely have to read it.
Definitely excited for what your channel has coming in 2024!!!
I've been following you for what feels like years, and I remember jackson so well that even for me its so sad. He was awesome xx
My favourite book I read this year was The Heart’s Invisible Furies, which has become my fav book of all time I think! Honourable mentions however to The Book Thief (finally read it this year and wow I cried so much) and Demon Copperhead (loved this book too!)
the wishing game sounds amazing, i’m gonna pick it up for my next read!!
Great to see a new video from you!
Clearly the changes you have made are agreeing with you! Lovely to see you and love the list! I have recommended Remarkably Bright Creatures to so many people since I read it in 2022… still one of my favourites! My top 3 this year - Mad Honey by Jodi Picoult, The Measure by Nikki Erlick and The Shell Seekers by Rosamunde Pilcher (technically a reread). Glad to add a few of your favourites to my TBR list. Happy 2024! 🎉❤
Wow, just came to check of there were any books mentioned that might align with my reading taste and I can pretty much write down all these titels...!!!! Love it
missed you! glad you're back
Your Christmas tree is gorgeous! I loved The Guncle and Seven Days in June. Remarkably Bright Creatures was my favorite of 2022.
Omg yay, I love that you loved Happy Place! Honestly, so many reviews of this book made me feel like such a loser, because everyone was saying how unbelievable it was for people in their late 20s to be such a mess, and I found it extremely relatable at 34!! Lol I don’t know, I think people have this idea that once you found your person, everything will just work out, but sometimes you can be with the right person, and still have to work through your own personal baggage before the relationship can run smoothly. That goes for romantic, relationships and friendships.
Yes so true!! I related to her too don’t worry 😅
I missed your bookish videos!!!! 🥹🫶🏼
I was waiting for your video... HAPPY NEW YEAR HAILEY 🎉❤
Great video! ❤ I love Fourth Wing too.
I always love your Bookmas videos, but I know that is a lot and way too stressful! I'm glad to see you making changes to benefit you and your health. I lost my little best friend too this past year, and it has been hard without him.
A separate video for self help books??? Yeeeyyyy
Remarkably Bright Creatures and The Wishing Game are also in my top 3 for the year. Have a great 2024!
Omg love them!!
Remarkably Bright Creatures is on my TBR. It sounds wonderful!
I read The Wishing Game because of you and it ended up being one of my favorite books of the year as well.
I bought the wishing game, really looking forward to getting into it!
so great to watch this video!
Happy new year
Love your jumper
New to this book tube malarkey. Best wishes with your reading choices in 2024. I hope you get some great reads.
I missed book was so much! but. I´m glad that you didn't stress yourself doing it and instead sat this one out
Great video happy new year 🎊📚☕❄️⛄
The hair is giving 💗😍
My favorite book of 2023 was Happy Place by Emily Henry. It made me cry so much. I connected so much to Harriet, the main character.
These are my fav videos to watch! The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches (such a long title omg ahha 😂) sounds like something I would loveeeee and just seen it's on kindle unlimited!
I've been waiting for this video! **
I have owned All My Rage for a year but I’ve been scared to read it because of how heavy it sounds, but knowing it’s YA actually makes me want to read it now!!
The Wishing Game was also my favorite of 2023...it went straight to my top 10 favorite of all time!! Great list!!
I’ve heard really good things about The Wishing Game and it sounds really good! I’ll definitely have to check it out.
Your favorite is my favorite this year too. I absolutely loved The Wishing Game.
The Wishing Game is high on my tbr. It sounds like something i would really like
My favorite book of the year was Unseelie by Ivelisse Housman. It's a YA fantasy. The plot is nothing you haven't seen before, but the mc is autistic. As someone with autism myself, i never realised how much i needed that representation until i read this and it's so well-done and i need more people to read it because it's so underhyped!
I'm so looking forward to all the wonderful videos you're going to bless us with in the new year 🩷
Thank you Hailey. I also am better with audio books; and didn’t really like Crawdads. I am going to try a few of these books. Hope to see you in YT
I'm so glad that you enjoyed Iron Flame as well as Fourth Wing. While I understand and accept a lot of the criticism out there for it, I still really loved it and was feeling so alone in my opinion! AI can't wait for book 3!
My favourite book of 2023 was Exit West by Mohsin Hamid :)
I read The Wishing Game by your recommendation and it was definitely top 5 this year! #1 was for sure Daisy Jones and The Six. Listened to the audio book and I almost started reading it again after I finished it
It's so difficult to say what best books I read in 2023 and I've read some amazing books, but my number one top favourite was Heartstopper Volume 5 by Alice Oseman 💙💙💙
Name hazrulnaimhb
Ilovehy
The Jackson Memorial behind you is adorable and love so much❤
Longtime subscriber and fellow Orange cat mom❤
My favourite book of 2023 was definitely Yours Truly by Abby Jimenez. The anxiety rep with Jacob made me feel so seen and was the most accurate depiction of how I experience anxiety that I’ve ever read. Also the romance between him and Briana was just the cutest!
Well I just added some books to my wishlist list haha
I'm so happy you loved Seven Days in June and Happy Place. Both are amazing imo. Also, I'm happy you are not getting influenced by all the bookish opinions about hyped books, because it leaves you making up a genuine opinion of your own that you can stand by without any influencea from the noise. I love the new changes and your honesty in your channel. I hope you have the best year ahead 🙏🏼🤩
Thank you so much! 🥰
I loved As Long As the Lemon Trees Grow! One of my favorite books of the year
I also read The Great Alone this year and loved! But I also read The Four Winds by her and I honestly cannot decide which I loved more. I think if you loved the Great Alone you would also really enjoy The Four Winds :)
I missed bookmas this year but I get that it can be really stressful. Are you going to do any videos that you sometimes do for bookmas? Maybe New Year’s resolutions or books you’re most looking forward to?
Happy 2024! I loved the wishing game too! But also the weight of blood by Tiffany D Jackson, then she was gone by Lisa Jewell and the naturals and inheritance games series by Jennifer L Barnes 😊❤
I’ve had The Wishing Game in my shelf since it came out. Now I will definitely get around to it soon!
Top three books of the year:
3. Carrie Soto is Back
2. Divine Rivals
1. The Renegades Trilogy
The Wishing Game is my favorite read of 2023 as well!! I loved that book!
Yesssss 🎉
I absolutely loved The Guncle when I read it. I can't wait for the sequel later this year! My favourite of 2023 was Yellowface by R.F. Kuang!
The jackson stuffed animal is the best thing ever❤ what a wonderful way to remember him😊
Oh a book video, what are those!? (Kidding, looking AMAZING by the way!!!)
One of my favorites is Fourth Wing as well 😊
Awesome video 😅😊‼️💯 I was just diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia and I am have realised that audiobooks help me read better and therefore I have read more books. And I am also learning so much about myself and how my ADHD masked who I am and what I want to do and be. What’s your ADHD story ? 😊
thanks ❤
I would love to see a video about your feel good, light hearted and funny book reccomendations. Some of my favorite books this year were Healing for no one but me by Jennae Cecelia, Unexpecting by Jen Bailey, All Alone with You by Amelia Diane Coombs, Tilly in Technicolor
by Mazey Eddings and Love in Winter Wonderland by Abiola Bello. I am looking forward to your book reccomendations this year and all of your other wonderful content!
I had a really great reading year too. I read 135 books thanks to discovering audiobooks in late Spring. My Favs of 2023 were: Paperbacks - Anna Karenina, Pachinko, The Tatooist of Auschwitz
Audio - The Echo of Old Books, Spare, West with Giraffes
EBook - The Reading List, House of Hollow
I also read two of Kristin Hannah's books this year and really loved them. Hope the wishing game can translated into Chinese.😅
All My Rage is on my TBR.. Fingers crossed I get to it this year
The Guncle sounds so good 😩
I love the great alone one of my faves in 2019! You should read firefly lane and the four winds by her think you will love ❤
Agreed most like enemies to lovers, I am new to romance I tend to not like it until recently when I read holiday romance (friends to lovers) loved it and thinking maybe I would just love that trope..would love to see a friends to lovers recommendations video.
My favorite book is last year was the forest of vanishing stars by Kristen Harmel. She’s a great book Arther and of the story line I loved so much because it was really good 😊
We have similar taste, so hopefully you like some of my recommendations too! My favorites included Tilly in Technicolor by Mazey Eddings, Business or Pleasure by Rachel Lynn Solomon, Better Hate Than Never by Chloe Liese, Always the Almost by Edward Underhill, They Never Learn by Layne Fargo, Yours Truly by Abby Jimenez, & Know My Name by Chanel Miller
My top three were The Selection, Heartstopper and Book Lovers 🖤
Fourth Wing was a great read ♡
Abby Jimenez's books have been getting great feedback. Hopefully, they will bring me great reading experiences. Cute dogs! 🐶
My favourite book was “every star that falls” by Michael Thomas Ford. Ps. Always love seeing your dogs! And how is spudnick? (Spelling?)
My favourite book in 2023 was Magnolia Parks The long way home by Jessa Hastings. Fourth wing was also one of my favorites.
Hailey I would love some recommendations for audiobooks. I have lots of audible credits I need to use.
Here's my favorite books
1. Spare by prince harry
2. Delilah green doesn't care
3. The mind series by s.t abby
4. Reminders of him by colleen hoover
5. Tell me everything by minka Kelly memoir
Ugh I am soooo afraid to pick up The Great Alone because I ADORED The Nightingale and I have such incredibly - and, I'll admit - unfairly high expecctations but she is such a beautifully talented author so I just NEED to pick it up already.
the great alone was my number one!!
I’ve read a lot of self help books as well!
I would love to read Great Alone. I also read The Nightingale and I really love it. I also recommend The Four Winds by Kristin Hannah. ❤️🥰
My favorite was Outland by Dennis E. Taylor. I listened to the audiobook narrated by Ray Porter who is an amazing voice on Audible. Six college students, studying different subjects, must deal with the fact that Yellowstone may soon emit a world-ending super volcano. This immediately became my favorite science fiction book of all time.
My favorite book of 2023 was The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood or The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath ❤❤
“this one just feels so different” …. there is so much irony in that statement when talking about Fourth Wing XD
