THE TOP!!! (And the necklace!!)🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 stunning as always :)
The top gives me vintage vibes Really pretty!
i was gonna say! it's the first thing i noticed, it's so pretty!!
She is so pretty ❤
I agree so much with having an opposite book taste with Emmie but she’s still a favorite booktuber 🥹🫶🏻
BELLA LOOKS LIKE AN ABSOLUTE GODDESS IN THIS VIDEO 😭💛
thank you 😭💖
My physical TBR being almost 90 books is concerning, especially because I love buying books, and I only read one book since the start of the year 💀
Side note: as a non-native, your ability to speak english so fluently is something I look up to! One day I'll be able to speak english without having my italian accent shine through too much, or the words mix lol
we still have soo many months left in the year, i believe in you!! just think of how exciting the idea of all those stories waiting for you is 🥹💖
also thank you so much!! don't hate your accent too much though because it's just a sign that you know more than one language and you should be proud of that!!
Everyone on earth has an accent. There is nothing wrong with your accent. All accents are beautiful.
girl same !!!! i'll just yeet them if i don't read them, i'm sick of seeing them 😂 love your styling in this video, you're glowing 🤩🥰
READ OR YEET ‼️‼️‼️
Maybe you can still do the reading like *emmie* video to motivate yourself to read these books (and perhaps even like talk about past books you've both read)
👀✍️
Ooh this is a good idea!
Bella, you look RADIANT! 🤩 honestly I have over 100 books on my physical tbr 😶 I plan to get through a lot of them this year though! If I could be under 100 by the end of the year than I’d count that as a win 🫡
omg thank you 🥹🫶 I BELIEVE IN YOU you so got this 😤✊
The way we all annotate the same exact part of East of Eden the power of boxes
PLEASEE that’s so real
I think it's kind of refreshing to see someone with a small physical TBR on booktube! I'm also trying get my physical TBR as small as possible. I recently finally got my physical TBR into the single digits, which was really exciting for me, haha. I currently have 9 physical books that I haven't read yet. My goal is ultimately to get it down to zero. I've been trying to get there for years, but I'm hoping this will finally be the year 😂
Thanks for this video! It's always interesting to see videos like this.
PS: intrigued to hear your thoughts on The Illiac Crest, I've read it recently. I've also been super interested in Frankenstein in Baghdad for years now! Might be a good TBR zero gift 😅
Girl you are literally my favorite booktuber,you just get it,I don’t know what your doing, but i also get it, so now we get it.
the necklace, the makeup, the earrings, the shirt, you’re GLOWWWINNGGGGGGGGG 💗💗💗✨🪩
THANK YOUUUU 🥹💖🫶
bella I ADORE your outfit omg you look super pretty!!!!
omg thank you so much 😭💖
I got into reading classic books bcoz of you!!!! I love you girlllll
Same
i love that 🥹🫶
I’ve been rewatching your vids this past week, so happy there’s a new one now😂❤️
Okay first of all you look absolutely gorgeous!!! and second, how are you so relatable? Every time you say or do something and I'm like 'lol same'.
we're on the same wavelength 😩🫶
i counted my unread books the other day and it's 172 :teehee: part of me wants to go with your method of getting it down really small BUT I've been tracking the format i read and i primarily read my physical tbr! so it's nice to have options. i think if my unread ever trumped my read THEN id panic
i love how different things work for different people 😩✊ it's definitely nice to have options especially when the majority of your TBR is classics and you're not really in the mood for them 💀
Girl you have the best pile of classics unread! Especially the East of Eden
i hope i love it! 😩🫶
Your outfit is adorable!!! You're so pretty!!!!!
Thank you!! 🥹👉👈
Holaa! Estoy leyendo las metamorfosis de ovidio en clase porque estudio clásicas y venia a decir que son básicamente un recopilatorio de mitos. Honestamente no necesitas leerlos todos para disfrutar; tal vez podrias empezar por aquellos que te interesen más o que hayas escuchado hablar e ir marcando los que te van faltando! De hecho, si alguno no te interesa para nada puedes simplemente saltarlo😊
Me explico muy mal ajsjajsja, pero básicamente queria decir que no te abrume la cantidad de páginas porque no hace falta leerlo entero. Me encantan tus videos🥰
I am so excited to hear your opinion on east of eden. It was such an adventure 🥹
I CAN'T WAIT
Lonely castling the mirror is such a good book! I still can’t get over it even though it’s been a year since I read it+ there is an anime adaptation
i'm so excited to get to it 😩
You look so radiant in this video! 😭 this inspired me to go through books I haven’t read and Kpop albums I’ve never reopened lol
thank you 😭💖 have fun going through your books and kpop albums :')
I salute your determination to tackle your TBR. Don't worry about letting go - the books will still exist in the universe and you can read then later if they call to you. Also, you can keep one book of a series if you only love one of them. And you don't have to own a book to read/re-read it, so you don't have to keep books in a series that you have already read just in case you continue the series.
My TBR commitment - unhaul 100 books with or without reading them (I'm going to read as many as I can, of course), and in general focus on reading from my physical TBR.
i dont have a physical tbr but my virtual tbr, i have 60 books that i want to read and want to read half of them this year. i'm hoping to read my first virginia woolf book - mrs dalloway to start my march although i getting a bit scared that i'm falling into a slump because i havent read in a few days....💀 Love your videos as always, wishing you the best of luck in completeing those books - you can do it ✊❤
Great video, as always! I have 280 books in my physical TBR... 🙃 I do love being surrounded by books (clearly). For the books giving you anxiety, I say just start them. Either you'll like them and keep reading, or you'll realize they are not for you and out the door they go. Good luck!
OKAY BUT BELLA U ARE STUNNING
THANK YEW
not my physical tbr being over half my bookshelf ;-; love the vid and i am so happy you're back and doing better
Your physical tbr is sooo motivating! Under a dozen unread and I KNOW you’re gonna read most of them 👏🏽 Incredible work Bella truly
THANK YOU 😩🫶
I am struggling to read lately, only reading a manga here and there and I miss reading novels but have no idea what to pick :)) something fast paced/easy to get through would be nice, but been struggling with whatever I start. My tbr is pretty big, but I stopped looking at it :)) Haven't been buying any books though, so that's good.
omggg Romance of the Three Kingdoms I’m reading the Moss Roberts translation right now and I am actually vibing with it so much. It’s an ancient warlords but make them problematic faves vibe.
bella, i’ve been watching your videos all day, because university didn’t let me do that at the right time, just wanna say you make me laugh every time, and i really appreciate your existence in parallel with mine!!
You’re so sweet and kind thank you so much 😭💖
5:15 I'm so very excited that you are on the Berserk bandwagon! Yes, we love Guts.
15:31 Great Expectations? More like, Lower Your Expectations! (Let me know if you ever need me to write some Dickensian zingers for you.)
22:11 Body Keeps the Score! You are doing it, and that means so much to me.
26:12 Great things are happening 'up here.' So many great things.
28:35 You bring a lot-tle bit of happiness to my life. Thank you for sharing your love of all things awesome!
your one liners never disappoint i would pay to live in your mind for a day
and thank you 🥹💞
Thank you for being such a warm light in the grey ❤️🩹💞
🥹💖🫶
it's so funny bc you and emmie are my fav booktubers (and hannah!!) but in my case i always have similar opinions with her, specially with classics, and i don't care we have different tastes i still enjoy every single one of your videos 😭😭🫂
Lonely castle in the mirror; everyone either loves it or hates it. I really liked it, it's an endearing story and you do come to love the characters as if they were almost like your children lol. Your TBR looks amazing btw!
0:12 as an italian i totally understand what you mean
this motivated me a bit to start cutting down on my unread books pile. i think i have more than 50 🤡 and i dont want it to be that way anymore.
i hope you're having a good day/night, bella (and whoever sees this comment) 💕
you can definitely cut it down this year, i believe in you 😩🫶
@@throneofpages thank you for the push, bella 🥺🥺
Look at us going a month without buying books!! ❤
Also, sometimes I just think about that one Bronte sister that felt like she had to write a book because her sisters did. I don’t know which one it is but my bets are Anne.
most definitely Anne 😭💀
ok but bella you are GLOWINGGG in this video. gorgeous mwah.
omg thank you so much 🥹💖
you look so pretty 😭
omg thank you 😭💖
loved east of eden! i read it in about 6 weeks
You look absolutely gorgeous!! 🥰 I have 76 books on physical tbr and I really want to reduce the number by a lot this year. Hope I can do it! 🤞
Thank you!! I believe you can do it 😩✊
Your outfit is sooooooo cute!!! I also loved the necklace
thank you 🥹💖
THE TOP!!!!! girl you ATE
NO CRUMBS
Crying again about you unhauling The Vampire Lestat as I love that book😢 great video as always!!!❤❤
I'm sure it's a great book just not for me unfortunately 😭👉👈
OMG BELLA YOU LOOK GORGEOUS 💗 btw i also want to read east of eden !!!!
ahh thank you!! 🥹💖
as someone who loved she who became the sun soo much and was very scared about he who drowned the world, it is good and you will feel happy and ok about everyones ending. i cant say the journey is all smooth sailing there is a lot of pain and the ending is tragic for some but also hopeful and not completely depressing so. it will hurt you but then you will be ok ❤ i hope this isnt spoilery for you, not that i told you what happened but i have kinda spoiled the vibes i guess. but maybe it will make you feel less stressed and more ready to pick it up 🥰
this makes me feel a lot less scared about starting it so thank you 😭💖 i don't consider these spoilers you're so good 😩🥰
we 100% love Guts here 😌
also you are absolutely gorgeous 💕
NO YOU 🥹💖👉👈
the framing in this video uuh beautiful
omg thank you :')
hi hi ! i only have two books in my physical tbr and it's mainly because i can't stand having too many. i'm the type of person to read books as soon as i buy them, so yeah :-) i'm rooting for you to read at least some of them before the year ends! thank you for this week's video, it always makes me happy to see you
This is impressive!! I aspire lol. I would love to know how you consider your “tbr” like .. I feel like my tbr is all the books I WANT to read. Do you not classify your want to reads as your tbr?
@@myajones698 yes! i also consider my tbr as all the books i want to read (which is around 300 lmao), but in this case i was specifically referring to the amount of books that i own that i want to read (if that makes sense?)
He Who Drowned the World is even more unhinged than She Who Became the Sun. I consumed it so fast. I also need to binge some manga and comics, coz some new volumes are coming. Good luck with your TBR!
Loved your video!! I have 16 unread books which is a lot for me considering I have a very small bookshelf.
i'm so glad you enjoyed!! 16 is such an impressive number 😩✊
You're are looking stunning Bella❤️
Also I have a huge kindle tbr but I've been in a kinda of slump for a while😭
thank you 🥹 i hope you can get out of your slump soon!! 👉👈
Thank you for posting today 💕🌹
Even the dedication gets annotated, east of eden is just that good 🤭
bestie is there still a favorite books of 2023/wrap-up video coming?? If not, I'm kindly requesting it
you look gorgeous :") watching this vid right after my papersss
you're too sweet thank you :')
I’m sending you love and a great month❤❤❤
Your videos are always great :) I look forward to see your reactions to the books. For Ovid, the size felt less intimidating for me when I thought of it as short interconnected stories and how the pages have fewer lines on it. I liked the notes but I feel you don't need to read the notes on the text to understand the main text, some notes are just extra info about the location, customs or a meaning of a name. I also read the spoiler recap that's at the beginning of each book section (15 total) after I finished each book section. I liked how over the top some characters were but it's mixed with stories with tragic events and horror elements.
thank you!! That's a great tip for Ovid!! It makes it a lot less intimidating :')
bestie?
I love u
omg i need to know where you got your shirt bc i am OBSESSED
Cider! ✨
I just read Metamorphoses in december. It honestly flies by. It looks daunting but the stories are all so interesting and the writing is very understandable.
That makes me feel a lot less scared to start it thank you 😩
Work has been exhausting me recently so I’m watching this video to motivate me to read tonight once I’m done with my skin and haircare routine rather than just mindlessly scroll on my phone and sleep early so thank you Bella!😌💕
you're so welcome 🥹🫶💖
Literally leaving a comment just so I can assure Bella is a bit happier BC of it!! Absolutely obsessed with your top and I'm so curious to see which books you'll be reading from this pile ❤❤
thank you for making me happier 🥹💖
Love this. I'm really interested in seeing how this reading year will treat you. Wanted to tell you that I started watching Welcome to Samdalri and am at ep 6, it's pretty good and cozy. Did you watch Live Action ATLA yet? What did u think? I have mixed opinions felt like a lot of things could have been better and the pacing and exposition were annoying.
Have even started the video yet but you are GLOWING
THANK YOU :')
OF COURSE
Frankenstein in Baghdad is for real so good, I read it because of Emmie too aha!
i hope i love it!!
@Ms-Peepers-Reading-Corner brought me here. Happy Reading! 😎📚👍
You look so cute in this video! I love the top and the necklace/earrings combination ✨I'm really looking forward to hearing your thoughts about He Who Drowned the World and East of Eden!! Also I bought The Romance of the Three Kingdoms on impuls when you unboxed it, mostly because of the illustrations, but I also haven't read it yet :omg:
thank you so much bente 🥹🫶 I've already started He Who Drowned The World so you'll be getting thoughts soon 😈 i hope that whenever/if ever one of us starts the romance it's worth it :omg:
@@throneofpages maybe we could buddy read romance and help each other through it :omg:
waow bella you look gorg !! 😻😻😻😻💓💓💓
love your videos! i also recently started wano, and i’m already almost done with the saga because i couldn’t stop watching it!! so many iconic scenes/fights!! 💓
thank you!! i'm soo excited to continue wano it already looks amazing 😩✊
Okay first of all... You look stunning, secondly i have almost 300 books in my physical TBR so finishing it is NOT happening lol. Rooting for you girly!! ❤
👏 NOT 👏 WITH 👏 THAT 👏 ATTITUDE 👏😩✊
Bella, would you consider doing an updated version of the series youre currently in the middle of or maybe do a rank of the ones youve already finished, i would love to see that ❤️ you look stunning as usual
thank you!! actually, i'd love to do that 👀✍️
I'm reading Crime and Punishment right now, and even though I have read classics before, every time I pick it up it's like I've never read a book before in my life lol. I'll finish it eventually.🙃
I have that one rule that I only have 5 unread books and 2 unread book seriesin general at home and it's worked ok xD I'm a big mood reader, and I always want to read the books I don't own 🥲 but currently I'm reading the 'court of broken bounds' and the 'shatter me' series, and next week my first 'attack on titan omnibus edition' manga will arrive😤💕 after your video I decided to do my first reading challenge ever and it was the same you did (with the spin wheel) I had max. 3h and I had so much fun. It helped me SOOOO MUCH to keep reading my book and to actually finishing it✨ also to make your tbr larger, I can highly recommend 'how do you live?' by genzaburo yoshino. it's a japanese classic (and my first classic ever!) and I love it😤 also maybe you heard about that but thats the inspiration for the latest ghibli movie, so maybe its something for you :D
and also thank you again for that video, your videos are always very comforting and I can finally slow done✨💕
have a nice weekend
@teddy- 1333 "I always want to read the books I don't own" So... Is there rehab to check in for this or...😅
@@Zuzi_Reads i dont think so 😭
You looks so pretty with that outfit. You are stunning!
Remind me of the blue shirt and headband combo we used to see you.
thank you :')
hey Bella i really like ur vids and im inspired i really want to read war and peace the count of monte cristo but why dont u try the romance of the forest by Ann Radcifle that would be really fun!
your top is so cuteee
Thank you 🥹💘
Hey Bella, did you ever read the brazilian write Clarice Lispector? I think you would loveeeeeeeeeeeeeee her books!! My favorite is "A Hora da Estrela"/"The Hour of the Star"
I haven't yet!! 👀✍️
I totally get what you’re saying about not being smart enough for some books. I can’t really recall any titles right now, but I will say that once I started really reading fantasy, I was very intimidated. My brain just doesn’t think outside of the real world, and I was impressed that authors could come up with such stories that not only included these fantastic characters, but also these great worlds that they built. Reading stories like this make me feel less smart I guess you could say.
i know what you mean!! i think when i first started reading fantasy i felt the same way you did but the more books i expose myself to the more my brain is open to new experiences and my imagination grows! so you're not alone :')
Bella looking SCRUMPTIOUS today literally slay queen ✨✨✨✨
thank you 😩🫶
My physical tbr is at 458😭I liked the idea of having options but it did indeed get out of control
a book that made me feel stupid is so definitely the name of the rose by umberto eco like !!!!! there are these multiple page monologues abt theology and the bible and so many random paragraphs in latin which i just simply... i cannot. and there is this one character that speaks this weird blend of french, english and latin, and since i only know a bit of french and no latin my brain just committed suicide trying to understand the character. had to dnf the book even though i was super excited for it DDD: (also the lonely castle in the mirror is SOOOO GOODDDD it was the first book in a really long time that made me cry)
(also i did just dislike the book for multiple other reasons but thats irrelevant lmao)
not THAAT that sounds so complicated and for what 😭😭 thank goodness you dnf'ed it it's not worth it 😭
my physical tbr is a mess! I really wish my tbr was smaller like yours :(
Really want to read Oliver Twist too !
I feel like you would enjoy lonely castle in the mirror and I do agree with everyone who says that it is slow paced and not too plot driven BUT it also has amazing character growth and deals with important topics like bullying
I love amazing character growth 😩
I soooo get it, I feel kind of stupid reading some literary fiction books 😭 but we got this!
We so got this 😩✊
I don't need Netflix... I just need my books and #Throneofpages to go through. Keep it up, Bella!!!! We all love you here ❤
*There is a book I purchased and it's been sitting there in my bookshelf for a while though, and it is "House of leaves". Same as you, I don't feel ready for it... From time to time, I check it up, I go through its pages, but, still... I feel that I need to be in a better state of mind for me to read it. So, I totally relate.
you're too sweet, thank you 😩✊ I've heard many people feel the same way about the same book so at least you're not alone in this 😭
i have over 300 on my tbr 🫣😂 but the tenant of wildfell hall i have read! and it's really good, it's told through letters and it's amazing🥰
through letters?! my interest has been piqued once again 😩✊
Girl!! Ahhhh you look GORGEOUS ❤
Thank you!! 🥹💘
you look so stunning!
bella, you are already beautiful, but on this video, you're ✨️glowing✨️
and my new hobbie is to watch your videos while I am coloring in my coloring book 🫂🥰🩷
you're the absolutely sweetest ilysm 😭💖
I have 70 unread books. 😬 A few are manga which makes me feel better.
12 are Berserk which maybe I can count as one book. So I have 59 books. 🤫Look forward to hearing your thoughts on the series.
you definitely count berserk as one 😌 59 unread books it's still really impressive though!! 😩✊
You NEED to read lonely castle in the mirror! I love it soo muccchhh ❤❤❤❤
i will 😩🫶
I have like 60 unread books in my physical library and I've been trying for the past few months to keep reading them without buying new ones, I hope someday I'll have a small stack like you do
i believe in you!!
Queen be lookin' stunning!! Yep she did that!! 👑💅🏻🧡
0:06 I'm back to my favorite place on the internet, yes 💗💗 And girl, you look stunning omg🙈🙈
5:07 Berserk has been on my tbr for a long time 🤔🤔
14:42 I remember I read Oliver Twist when I was in high school and I think I enjoyed it, but I would like to read it now in English, so maybe my opinion changes 😂
27:39 I have quite a few books on my tbr... I don't know exactly how many but there are more than 20 probably 😂😂
28:40 You are the most beautiful human being of this planet🥺🥺🥺💜💜
omg thank you 🥹💘 I still have yet to read Oliver Twist but the more time that passes the less interest I have in it 😭
I just started reading Emily Wildes encyclopaedia of faeries thinking ”it will be just a cozy book that is easy to read”.. but no😅 English is not my first language, I do read alot of english books but I do struggle with classics because I do feel stupid. And I already feel stupid reading this book now having to google like every tenth word😅 but I googled the author and it turns out she has a master in english lit so that explains alot hahah
the top!! you look gorgeous
thank you!! 🥰
I literally just counted and I have 62 unread books 🧍🏽♀️ also to make myself feel better I tell myself that I’m just collecting books for my life’s library so they’ll be there when I want to read them
that's a great way to look at it 🥹
Bella don't be hard on yourself, the Metamorphosis is scary! As you know I'm italian and I studied Greek and latin in high school, even for me the though of reading it is scary ^^' (I have it too on my unread pile, we are on the same boat)
P.s. I am curious, did you read North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell? Did you like it?
