You are going to LOVE the stormlight archives the books just fly by you barely notice the length and the hype is so real. Best books I have ever read.
It's so nice to see that you had so many 5 star reads this year! There are no words for how much I love The Infernal Devices Trilogy! It's one of those series that I know will stick with me forever. And Carissa Broadbent is one of the best authors I discovered this year! She's probably the closest to SJM (who is my forever favorite/gold standard) that I've been able to find.
Awesome book talk 😂 I absolutely agree with your reviews of Yellowface & Tomorrow/Tomorrow/Tomorrow…both were epic in completely different ways! I’ve been putting off Clockwork Princess but the now it’s time!!
Yours truly might be my book of the year😢 it was beautiful and I felt SEEN with how Jacob’s anxiety was portrait 🫶🏻
it’s incredible and SO relatable 💓
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE
Yes, I agree with heartstopper. My first graphic novel read either, can’t wait to read book 4 in July.
you are my favorite booktuber ever!:) i read daughter of no worlds bc of you and it's now my favorite series! going to start the second one soon!
thank you so much 😭💓
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A couple of my favourites of the year so far was My Dark Vanessa, Mad Honey and Remarkably Bright Creatures.
Hey Rachel, half way through Fear the Flames and what a ride! It took me a couple of chapters to get into to it but now I can't stop reading it. Thank you! Great intro into this genre. If I can recommend one book for you, it is a romance but in a whole different way.
It's The Blue Castle by L.M. Montgomery. It's hard to describe but it hits on so many different levels. One of my favourites of all time!
Loved this video! The only books I have given 5⭐️ so far this year (out of 30 books) have been: the serpent and the wings of night, the ashes and the star-cursed king, and fourth wing. And now, I’m off to read Fear the Flames purely based on your recommendation, since I’ve realized we have basically the same taste in books and I’ll read whatever you recommend! Lol can’t wait for the next video Rachel! 🖤✨
Edit: I finished Fear the Flames last night, and it was AMAZING! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Jar of hearts n all of Jennifer Hillier's books have been standout 5 stars for me this year!
🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 My favorite reads of the year have been: The Beautiful Ones by Silvia Moreno Garcia (I think you'd LOVE too!)
-Clockwork Princess (which I also barely read this year 😅)
-The Ballad of Never After
-Divine Rivals
-Anxious People by Frederick Backman
-Daisy Jones & The Six
A few of my 5⭐️ reads over the last few years:
Well Met by Jen DeLuca
The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by VE Schwab (most of her books are 5⭐️ for me)
The Illuminae Files series by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff
Anxious People by Fredrik Backman
The Poppy War by RF Kuang
The Nature of Witches by Rachel Griffin
The Dead Romantcs by Ashley Potson
Ninth House and Hell Bent by Leigh Bardugo
I'm in DESPERATE NEED of a 5 stars read! 😭 2023 has been mostly 3 stars reads so far, so I'm super grateful for this video!!
Also, my heart just melts anytime you say "beautiful angel besties" 🥹🥹
Tomorrow and toorrow and tomorrow or if you want a romance book The right move.
Been waiting for you to review TTT!❤❤
I think you will love Sanderson's Tress of The Emerald Sea and Yumi and The Nightmare Painter (aka secret projects 1 and 3). Yumi managed to find a spot in my favorite books of all time list. Also, I reread The Infernal Devices in the beginning of the year and immediately after read The Last Hours to help my heart heal a bit from the end of Clockwork Princess, and following Will and Tessa's children was delightful, I couldn't recommend that reading order more. Ps: thank you for getting me into Carissa Broadbent, every single one I read was perfection.
I also read heartstopper at the start of this year and LOVED it ❤
Brandie Sandie 😂 I love it
I totally agree with project Hail Mary. One of the best books I have ever read and the audiobook as such a special layer to the story that you can not get from reading alone.
Yellowface was five stars for me, too, and I'm pretty sure it will be one of my favourites of the year as well. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Fourth Wing was a 5 star for me too, I am a little nervous about Iron Flame, sometimes the 2nd book in a series isn’t as good but we’ll see. I also absolutely loved The Friend Zone by Abby Jimenez. I know that one is hit or miss with a lot of people, but I loved how she did the endometriosis/infertility rep in it, and having the same issues it’s nice to see it on page in a book. And my third choice is Powerless because Theo! That’s it just Theo 😊 This was a great video!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I could watch you gush about your fave books for hours 🥹 I think we’re due for another “reading books out of my comfort zone” video!!! you need another Project Hail Mary moment 🤭 I only have four, 5 star books so far this year 😭 and by far the best one is obviously Kingdom of Ash 🤩⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
ugh kingdom of ash 😭😭😭😭
Girl... 6 scorched roses is my favorite!!! I actually read this novella first prior to A serpent and the wings of night , Because before this I never read vampire romances since Twilight, and I'm the odd person that didn't liked the twilight series and because of that, It soured my taste for anything in that genre. Until 6 scorched Roses. I love the dynamic of Vale and Lilith's story and the world building. After the novella I greedily ate up the next 3 books! Can't wait for Mische's story!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beach Read by Emily Henry, House of Beating Wings by Olivia Wildenstein, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid
And some you mentioned already Fourth Wing and The Serpent and the wings of night. Two very gooooood books! :D
i loved the brown sisters books. especially chloe's story. dani's story i loved because of her sprituality. eve i loved because of the autism rep. they are all wonderful i need to reread.
My favorite books so far is fourth wing and love & other words by Christina Lauren. Many of the books you mentioned I want to read and hopefully soon.
i loved your video😍
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

also have u tried the coven by harper woods?? it's a new ish fantasy romance coven of bones series and am hearing v good things about it.
My favourite books of the year so far are Belladonna by Adalyn Grace (historical mystery meets fantasy romance with death personified) and A Curious Beginning by Deanna Raybourn, book one in the Veronica Speedwell series (historical mystery with the slowest and burniest slow burn romance)
Omg girlll, Project Hail Mary destroyed me and I am mainly a fantasy romance girlie too. It will be one my fav books forever, all the feels. Have you read the Red Rising series? I think you'd like them a lot too if you're into trying out more sci-fi.
It’s so hard to pick only 3 lol so far I have had a pretty good reading year but definitely Project Hail Mary by Andy weir , the four winds by Kristin Hannah , Forever Boy : a mother’s memoir of autism and finding joy by Kate Swenson , hooked by Emily mcintire , things we never got over my Lucy score ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Serpent, The Wicked King, and (picking one TOG is hard!!) Heir of Fire have been my favorite fantasies so far this year
this is an iconic top 3
What my 5 star books have taught me this year is that I gravitate toward reading series but I always love the first book the most. If I don’t like the first book, I tend to not like the series.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ love you and your videos!!!!!
thank you! 💓
My top 3 5 star reads so far this year are The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid, Hopeless, and Losing Hope by Colleen Hoover. They were amazing ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ my 5 star reads so far have been spy family manga vols 1 to 9, confessions by kanae minato, Penance by kanae minato, weight of blood by Tiffany d Jackson, and the princess and the grill cheese sandwich by deya muniz
My only 5 stars this year have been Fourth Wing, Mile High, the Right Move, Kingdom of Ash, and A Dawn of Onyx ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
