Oh hey I just subscribed to your channel 😁

I'm so sad Night House was bad! The description gave me "Goosebumps, but for Adults" and I was excited for it. Oh well, one less book on the TBR! ALSO, your library has a DRIVE-THRU?! 👀

It seems interesting 🤔.

Jo Nesbø is one of Norways biggest authors, and he’s mainly a thriller/crime guy, most known for a long-ass series about a cop solving shit😅 Haven’t heard about this book though, so I did a quick search. Night house got five stars from a lot of norwegian papers. Our country is so small, I think the reviewers are scared they have to face the authors at a release party😂 Oh, and I found out the book IS supposed to be set in the 70’s. I hate settings from the 70’s. It’s too….brown🤪

I love the idea that Norway is like highschool and reviewers are afraid to bad talk someone because they'll see them in the cafeteria the next day.

I love the element of having to find the books at the library dude it really is a challenge nowadays I can never find the ones I want to read😢

So exciting to see you are familiar with Gabbyreads! You and her are my favorite booktubers! 😊

You have the best vlogs and the loveliest vibes, so comforting 😊💛

These reading vlogs are always so fun! Also those shots you took of the snow falling were absolutely beautiful.

I love that you are using your library, that's so nice to see!

I love when we get to see nature clips while seeing you read, reading outside is one of my favorites

u always bring up my mood and help me out of a reading slump !!

Complete side note: that Arkansas hoodie is great! Love the color and orange details.

Love the hoodie! Hello from Springdale!

My favorite thing about this video is finding out that a countertop dishwasher exists 😮

I'm not mad you're making videos about 2023. I still LIVE in 2023. Aging out of YA is not going smoothly y'all😩

Enjoyed this video! And that you use your library so much :)

I’m sorry - is your library a DRIVETHRU?!? THATS SO AWESOME

Haven't read any of those books, but I have read a couple of other books by Jo Nesbø and, unfortunately, the dated attitudes aren't unique to that book. A few might be the fault of things not translating well, but probably not most of them.

I love how everyone seems to collectively agree that the Finlay series is going downhill but refuses to stop reading it 😂

Good to know I ain’t missing much with the Finlay Donovan series 😂 hated the first book and was curious whether the rest were better

The little lego building scene so cute !!

Imma need that dishwasher linked bestie

Hey jesse i just wanted to tell u ur my fav booktuber ur vids always inspire me to pick up a book. Ur absolutely amazing and i cant wait for the next one i wrote this as ik watching this vid best wishes and be safe ❤

Out of these three books, the only one that peaked my interest was The Night House. My library has a copy so I May read it at some point, but my expectations are severely lowered with how the book is written.

Your library is so cool!

Yay! Library field trip!

I love that you do this without seeing their thoughts first!

I enjoyed this cause deep in my heart I'm nosy AND petty lol I like the balance of talking and aesthetica

Love watching Jesse trying to convince us he doesn't own a shrink ray.

Thanks for the honest, thoughtful reviews. You are brave. ;) (The white peach candy is def, better than the watermelon. FYI, the lychees is also tasty.)

Im rereading once upon a broken heart im excited to read the once upon a broken heart series

Jesse, where can I buy a dishwasher like yours? You could give an affiliate link if you have one!

Love Gabby's and Tia's videos 🫖☕📚🔖

Okay but now I want to try the candy…

Hey, we’re all guilty of invoking the previous year. It’s ok.

There are 3(!) more Finlay books contracted after the 4th. So 7 in total. I was going to read the 4th but now I’m just like that’s too much for me.

Woah thats a crazy amount of books, esp since its all hinging on an utterly ridiculous set up. I feel like people will definitely tire of it by book 4

In the Finley Donovan series

You should definitely read cursed by Marissa Meyer soon! It is an amazing duology so good! If you haven’t read her other books you should definitely read them. You should read the renegades series which is sci-fi dystopian and so good! You should also read the lunar chronicles which is sci-fi fantasy and also amazing! You should also read heartless it’s a retelling of Alice and wonderland it’s so good but also a little sad. All of these are some of my top favorite books and she is a go to auto buy author.

He actually has read TLC there are reviews of the books on his Channel from a couple years ago

I mean the Murder of Mr whickham, in it they talk about how homosexuality was a sin. But that took place in 1820 so thats understandable. Thats just the author writing things that happened and that were talked about in that time period. Highly recommend that book by the way. Jane Austen characters in it too

Ya ive seen many saying they only liked the first one

I feel like the whole Finlay Donovan Series would've been so much better if there wasn't any romance in it at all...even in the first book it was already annoying

❤yay library ❤

The Night House is the first and only time in my life that I've returned a book to the shop and got my money back after reading it, because I was so pissed that I spent 12 quid on it.

the dead romantics is one of my all time favorite books It hurt so much to hear that she has it in her worst books of 2023 video included aaaah pain :(((( florencebenji will always own my stupid little bookish heart hihi 💌💞💖

I read a river enchanted and a fire endless 5/5 stars , I almost cried at a fire endless , Jesse thank you for convincing me to read a river enchanted and a fire endless they were so good

Oh No, The Dead Romantics was in my top 5 best of 2023 reads!! 🖤

the cover for Once more with Feeling gives me Jacqueline Wilson vibes >.>

I also didn't enjoy Finlay Donovan Jumps the Gun....BUT I will be reading the next book in the series 😅

if i remember correctly (not sure from gavin or kayla) but finlay donavan was going to be 6 books???

Not Jesse "never" finishing a series but investing himself in one he doesn't like😂

Ok I actually bought the Jo nesbo book and now I don't want to read it. Oh well I guess the little free library it goes

I have never so far read any series that the squeals are worse then the first book, but I’ve not read too many books.

I hope it doesn’t come out wrong, but why put yourself through this purposely? I hate the whole “my worst books of 202-“ videos too. I’m super interested in people’s favorites, but I don’t need to waste time on the 1 stars. Just a thought.
