I love that you utilize your local library. That’s definitely something I want to start doing more of.
You should try reading a book series in 24 or 48 hours depending how big it is! Love your videos!!
“Song of Achilles” is definitely on my reading list. About to start “Hour of the Witch”. Hello from Round Rock! 👋🏼

I just bought last Wednesday can’t wait to read it!!
I’m currently reading dune, but I’ve seen the move multiple times!! It’s soooo good!!! The book focuses more on sci-fi and that stuff, while the movie focuses on more action! I love it!
The ruthless elimination of hurry is so good! Literally life changing!
Nancy Drew was AMAZING! I had half the series because I got my mom's collection of them as well as a few new books!! Also, Six of Crows is AMAZING!!! It's so heartwarming!!!
This has helped me so much, I usually stick to what I know when I comes to bookstores so it’s nice to see some other places I can branch out to in my area
I would definitely pick up Dune! I'm about 200 pages in rn and I love it, you kinda get hit with new jargon but Frank Herbert does a good job at immersing the reader and of explaining the functions of all the new things really well. You get context for everything quickly and it's been a fun ride so far!
me before you is my favourite book for 6 years now and wow I'm so excited what you'll think about it!🌻💛
I love BookPeople. Every time I'm in Austin I spend time there. In fact, my daughter who goes to school in San Marcos was just there yesterday!
omg!! was just rewatching part 1 :) super excited for this one
Me before you is my all time fav book! So good!
‘going to bookshops’ has literally been my FAVORITE activity lately! I can spend hours reading blurbs of pretty books🥰 Sadly, my friend group isn’t really a group in which it would be normal to say like: “hey, do u guys want to hang out in the bookshop this afternoon?” Hahaha, if anyone here is in for it, let me know😉🤍

queeeen your book vids are popping off im so happy for you !!!!!
yes yes i waited for this one love it!
These videos bring me so much joy and always get me ready to read again
The book date idea is so cool!
“normal people” is so good!! there’s mixed reviews abt it but i am halfway through and love it already.
0:33 absolutely YES!
Omd! I'm literally so glad I found your channel, ive just been binge watching all ur book videos and craving more 😩
OMG I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO SOO EXCITED TO WATCH
This series is absolutely EPIIIIIIIC in every way possible 😊
eleanor and park is soooo good! Read it a few years ago, might have to pick it up again!
I love this style of vlog!
I love Dune! It's one of my favorite books of all time. There is quite a learning curve at the beginning though. The blind date with books is such a cool idea.
I love the energy you emit in your videos:) it feels like im hanging out with a friend
I had just finished The Song of Achilles and it is absolutely breathtaking! I just found your channel and I'm gonna binge watch some of your videos.
Been waiting for this one 😫🤟🏽
I am so obsessed with your videos! Much love from Thailand
If you like some funny romance books I would recommend “Let it snow” It’s a really cute book with three stories that are interconnected. I am not sure you would really enjoy it but it was a 4/5 for me

yes definitely part 3 . . 👍
I lovedddd Me Before You!! I just finished it in December so I have yet to watch the movie but I'm really looking forward to watching it soon
I LITERALLY LOVE UR VIDEOS LIKE-
Eleanor and park is one of my favorite books. I think maybe little humans in middle school shouldn’t read it but high school is totally fine. I think it shows the worst and the best in people, it’s an amazing book, you should definitely read it. Love it, re-read it every year.
i love everything about this
oh my GOSH me before you has to be one of my favorite books of all time. it read it in a day and loved every single moment of it. such a beautifully written book and an absolute 5 stars for me
I loved dune and the audiobook is soo good and makes it sm more atmospheric! It focuses a lot of mysticism, environmentalism, politics and religion if ur into that
I love Ali! She is just like me! Becauseeeeee she doesn’t look for too many booktok books and just reads the back and sees if it is interesting to her!
i love ur vids so much! we need ep 3
The first blind date book sounds a lot like The Witch Haven. I can’t wait for your blind date books video!
I'm so grateful I discover your channel :))
So happy to see your account grow so fast. Been here since 5k
that witches, romance blind date book sounds 100% like Kingdom of the Wicked omg. Loved it! was a great read for me :)

It also sounds a bit like blood like magic I’m currently reading it and it sounds very alike lol
i recommend you to read the shadow and bone trilogy first before six of crows, cause there are spoilers of the trilogy in the six of crows. but it's still up to you
GURL YOUR GONNA FALL IN LOVE WITH SIX OF CROWS
I love your channel so much I would love a part 2 to the 24 hour reading challenge! You should also make a book recommendation video! I would love to add I tried the 24 book challenge unfortunately I only made it about 5-10 hours but I honestly had a lot of fun but it’s hard to stay focused if the book isn’t so hooking.
I watched the first video and now I’m invested
I always go to the half price books near cinemark after watching movie. The joy of watching a movie then buying book is amazing
I love book people!! My favorite independant book store in austin🥺
girl you’re my new favorite youtuber
Omg another booklover in ATX:) yesssss!
I read Dune years ago and really loved it!!!
Austin looks dope to move in! With all the bookstore I'm kinda tempted lol
six of crows is great!! one of my favourites
I love your videos so much 😭
Song of achillies is on my book shelf and im so excited to read it but as i have no self control i think i am going to get and read six of crows first as i have heard that you can read it before the shadow and bone trilogy so yeah very excited! Love your vids so glad i found you!!
That half price books is the one near my house! I love that one, it always has some awesome book
I loved Nancy Drew as a kid too! That "Pretty Little Liars" book is cool; I have watched the show but have never read the book!
Part 3 please 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
i loved part 1, 14 ways to die is my favorite book !
Hi. I enjoyed the video. Love book shopping. Your pink high-top sneakers are so cute!
i kinda clicked on the video by accident and i'm so happy to have ended up there. also, where'd you go bernadette has my heart, just seeing it there somehow felt like destiny to me :') (+ the movie with cate blanchett was AMAZING.)
Love your videos I just got out of a reading slump and am getting back into reading
Dune is great! I can reallyy recommend that book. Love the characters and the world. Great story!
HPB ON TOP BABY!
Ali, the elimination of hurry is a christian self help book. It as well changed my life.
Lark and Owl in georgetown is awesome too!!!!!
I read Dune quite awhile back and really liked it!!! Me Before You is very good!!!
I saw Raging Bull at the Americana Theater in 1980. Book People is always fun.
Just found your channel the other day. Great content!
Where'd You Go Bernadette is a great book! I watched the movie first, loved it, then decided to read the book and though it's a bit different than the movie, it's filled with so much humour :) Would absolutely recommend!
I love your channel! 💕
I always say Barnes & Nobles too. For me, it’s because where I come from in the Midwest we like to add an ‘s’ onto certain things lol - Barnes & Nobles - Krogers - Meijers
Your library is also my local library. Not only did it used to be a movie theater, but a scene of Dazed and Confused was filmed there in the parking lot. Also, the director of Dazed and Confused (Richard Linklater) lives nearby, and he also directed Where Did You Go Bernadette? !
Dune is absolutely worth the read, but it is hard sci-fi and heavy on politics so I had to discuss the book with my fiance while reading it in order to fully comprehend it since he had already read it. I'm not usually into sci-fi at all but it's one of my favorite books of all time and the 2nd one is even better! 👌🏼
Me before you will break you. But it’s also amazing🙈
DUNE is my fav book ever, it is so interesting and you just don't want to put it down. And Frank Herbert became my favourite author of all times.
the tales of beedle the bard is THE BEST harry potter book (outside of the main series). it made me feel like a wizard child :))))
Hello!! Dune reader here! I've just recently finished reading Dune and I would totally recommend it if you are willing to commit to it. For me it was a bit difficult to follow in the beginning and by watching the movie and looking to the glossary in the back helped me a TON. By the end of it I was engulfed by this crazy story of cultural, political, and religious events in the world of Dune. Loved it very much ❤
Just found you on KZread and I’ve really been loving your channel. Also live in Austin and wish I could do something KZread related as well!
i live in austin too. i feel like this video was made for me
DUNE is AWESOME!! its the best sci-fi ive ever read, deffo recommend
omggg i live in Round Rock tx!! I go to Half price books sometimes but they never have the books i’m looking for so i usually go to Barnes and Nobles to get my books lol
Dune is really good!! One of my favorite books/series
Where'd You Go Bernadette is sooooo good. I haven't seen the movie yet but I've been meaning to watch it. Also, I just finished The Sentence - also good! Recommend that as well
The Black Pearl book store looks so cool! Wish one was here in California. BTW, I’m a new subscriber! Oh, yeah, I’m a big half price book store fan! Yes, we have one near me in California!!
Part 3!! Please!
Blind date books are so much fun and interesting
i am so jealous cause i have 1 bookstore in my area and it is mostly study books. Amazon is my best friend :)
I really reccomend you to get some Nicolas Sparks books, they have the best romance I've read and just made me cry. I hope you read a walk to remember and dear john, they both have movies! so so good!
Not me in the background at 3:00 🙈🙈 I miss my opportunity

Okkkk you're giving me ideas😭😂
Dune was the book that started my whole "getting back to reading for fun" journey. I would really recommend it especially if you ever were a YA dystopian sci-fi girlie like I was back in the day lol. Fantastic world-building and really unique characters. Moves pretty slow but I personally love how much Frank Herbert takes the time to explain all of these details to make the world seem more tangible. I also loved how the movie had a subtle feminist angle to it as well that was partly from the director's appreciation/interpretation of the book.
You should do a video where you show us all of your books that you have
You should go to Malvern Books in Austin! I love that store!
