Please don’t ever apologize for negative reviews towards a book. Books are so subjective and we all love or dislike them for the same or different reasons. I think negative reviews can actually lead to good conversations! Also I can’t wait to start the caraval series now 😊

The QUEEN has posted! Who else is excited?

legendary is the BEST in the trilogy (and honestly my favourite stephanie garber book along with ballad of never after). tella is one of my fav protagonists and I'm OBSESSED w her and dante and I feel like they deserve so much more love from fans

I preferred Scarlett as the better sister at the end of the day, especially after reading Finale, but Legendary is still probably my favorite book in the trilogy!

@@icebearstudios2757 right. I guess we were supposed to find Tella more fun. I did...until she became a little annoying chasing after a man who was not interested in her for the longest time. Scar and julian were superior because they actually loved each other despite their obstacles. I didn't buy tella's love story much.

I remember at the time thinking Caraval was a standalone only to find out the story continued and was so excited! I need to revisit the trilogy again, it's been so long

You made me pick bk up my book girl in pieces and it's actually my first book I bought for myself and I'm on chapter 3 and will b back when I'm finished to tell u what I think of it and again thank you for your videos ❤🎉

Your house is so beautiful and the Library room is one of my favourites in yout your house🥺❤️

I love ur videos alexaaa they make so happy😄☺

The way that you felt the Veiled Kingdom was similar to Powerless is how I felt about Powerless being similar to Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard! I probably would’ve like Powerless if I hadn’t read Red Queen, but I just couldn’t get over the similarities and it made me not enjoy it as much.

Obsessed with your reading vlogs 😍🥰💓✨

I really thought that I would love the night shift, but it was really bad, and I returned it to the store the same day. I rated it a one and a half or two stars. I love your videos ❤❤

Love Alexa so much. Would love a 24 hr readathon

i had a similar opinion to yours when I read ‘Night Shift’ like there wasn’t a lot in it but I liked the overall vibe so I kinda leaned into that 🌸

Every time Alexa uploads, I rush to see her videos! Also can we talk about how calming her voice is! I would definitely listen to an audiobook with Alexa reading! 😊

i love you alexa! your videos are my favorite! they are my home

This was such an incredible reading vlog, Alexa! So sad that you didn’t find a bunch of new favourites in this reading vlog, but I’m sure you’ll find some new favourite books soon. Also, I have some book recs for you! Only a Monster by Vanessa Len, which is a fun enemies to lovers urban fantasy with time travel. Yellow face by R.F Kuang, a literary fiction thriller about an author who steals her best friends manuscript. And lastly The Spanish Love Deception, one of my favourite romances with enemies to lovers, office workplace and fake dating. ❤

Hi Alexa we all develop a particular preference in our reading taste it even changes as we grow in life. Books are sometimes hit or miss I enjoy the book reviews as a guide. It has helped me in making good choices by watching book reviewers.😅

Favourite day everrr❤ you’re so cute

I am so happy seeing you having crazy weather alot tornado in Iowa my sister daughter loss her home the tornado threw her home Minden Iowa is mess plus glad so happy tbr books for reading books

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! One of my favourite KZreadrs! One question, how spicy is the chestnut springs series?

I’m sending you love❤

you upload your videos so late at night HAHA i work nights so i see them when they come out but maam sleep HAHA (but thank you for the videos!!)

I feel you the book that disappointed me a lot was Happy place by Emily Henry,I had so many high hopes for it since everyone loved it so much.

Could u do a video where u read Wattpad books for 24 hours

12:24 if you love the plot where they love each other but can’t be together because of their loyalties i highly highly recommend dance of thieves if you haven’t read it yet it’s soooo good plus it’s ya so there’s no spice in it

The score was my least favorite of the deal series. Really enjoyed night shift, it was cute and fun and I loved that the MMC doesn’t sleep with the whole school, he’s humble.

@alexaraye

Ай бұрын

I actually love that you said this because that’s something I didn’t even think of!! Definitely something I also like about the MMC!

The 7 year slip was the one for me 😢 I heard so many good reviews but for some reason it didn't work for me.

Alexa when are we getting book wrap ups I miss it tm🤍🥰

alexa where did u get your white chair? it looks so comfy!

I understand the feelings of not wanting to dnf a book. I had my first one this month and I went through so much back and forth on it since it's something I haven't done in forever. But I didn't want to force myself to read a book I wasn't enjoying.

Omg I was a ARC reader for the Icebound

Ahh I was looking forward to the veiled kingdom, but now I'm not so sure I'll end up loving it. Also, disappointed to find that the edition I have doesn't have character art on the inside 😢

I love your green top it's looking so good on you 😍😍

If Veiled Kingdom relates to Powerless, then you forgot Powerless is a copy of The Hunger Games. I agree; I hate cliffhangers, too. Hence, I haven't picked up Iron Flame yet

pls read the rule book by sarah adams, it's so good i'm enjoying it

You’re very pretty 🥰🥹

I went into high hopes in enjoying The Dead Romantics as much as The Seven Year Slip but I feel like not much happened in The Dead Romantics compared to The Seven Year Slip. I did enjoy the characters and the story but I wanted more.

I thought Shatter Me was going to be a five star for me but it so wasn’t. I’m sorry for everyone who loves that book but it was a 3.5.

Hi Alexa, sorry to bother, what program do you use for the animations in your intro?

This is so random but is that a pikes peak sweater you’re wearing?? 😍

Icebound sounds good but I hate repetition in a book! It’s like the author worried we will forget lol

i read the bodyguard by katherine center this month bc my friend LOVES this book and I'd heard so many great things but I ended up not liking it at all and that was so disappointing, especially bc it sucks to tell your friend you don't like a book they loved

My question then is what would you consider spice vs just sexual scenes ? For example I thought the chestnut springs series had a lot of spice?

@alexaraye

Ай бұрын

This is a great question & I should have explained it more when talking about it! SO, I don’t mind spice or “sexual scenes” in books! It’s just sometimes I don’t like the way an author may write out the scene because it just seems weird or cringe in my opinion. I also don’t really like when books have spice that is backtobacktoback. A scene here & there is fun but I don’t need the entire book being it! **POSSIBLE BOOK SPOILERS** In the veiled kingdom, the spice was just cringe imo & not my fav. In night shift, there was a lot of backtobacktoback. It felt like it was the entire book but it is a wattpad story so I should have expected it 😅

even though I didn’t rate them 2 stars I had very high hopes for if he had been with me and by a thread. I saw so much about them but they were still a little underwhelming for me

A book I had high hopes for was IF HE HAD BEEN WITH ME. I have heard such good things about it but it disappointed me so much

🏀🏀🏀🏀

Wildfire didn’t work for me…😔

For me, People we met on vacation was a let down. EmHen is my favorite author so, to give 3 stars to a book from her was hard to do...😢

💗🫶

Magnolia Parks.. gave it 2 ⭐️ and I’m afraid the rest of the series will be just as underwhelming

21:42 stop apologizing for not liking a book and stop feeling guilty for DNFing of wanting to DNF. If it’s a shitty book, it’s a shitty book and you can have that opinion. I didn’t read it, you did and you don’t like it. You’re allowed to have that. Not to mention, I love shit talking books. It’s my favorite pastime lol. If there’s nothing good about it talk all the shit you want, be honest, don’t keep trying to “ look for positives” if there isn’t any.

I love your videos but we disagree on almost every book it seems 😅😂
