You read so many books! :o Glad you liked almost all of them! :) Again a great video! My favorite book I read in January was "Keystone" by Katie Delahanty. I had it for a while on my physical tbr and never really got around to it and it really surprised me in a positive way!

Have you ever read anything from Tamora Pierce? I read a part of one of her series in college, and loved it but ran out of time. Now I’m going back and reading everything she has. So good, so much adventure and just perfect cozy fantasy. Also I love seeing all the characters show up in all the different series.

Hi! My fave read was fourth wing and as I told you I’m reading iron flame, it’s taking me a bit. I only have less than 200 pages and YES it’s going crazy but I don’t know why it’s getting me so hard to finish it. Anyways I only read 3 books not counting iron flame and all of them were 5 stars so I’m sooooo happy! Really liked your videos, don’t get disappointed with your numbers going down, you are one of my favs and they will go up im sure!! If you do what makes you happy, that’s all that matters. Enjoy the journey ❤ love from Spain ❤

What books are your 5 stars? I also did not like Iron flame, I pushed to finish it, but I found it to be quite repetetive 🤷🏻 It needed better editing in my opinion

Great video! I read/listened to 10 books in January (I'm always in the middle of both an audio book and an e-book). My favorite was probably Poppy War. You reviewed a couple of books that are new to me and I added to my tbr list. :)

@jaimefok

omg YAY. the poppy war is a masterpiece and it just gets more and more emotional as it goes on... enjoy the series!!

I recently read Strike the Zither by Joan He, I think it's my favourite so far of all that I've read this year.

Hi!!

I read only thrillers and mistery for years and I do think that after a while you just get used to it and see the patters and everything is more or less predictable. I can't find a thriller that is a wow for me anymore 😢That said try Marion Lane, if you like Harry Potter the vibes are great and the second books has also a really great mistery.

That’s so sad to hear 😭 I want to feel that shocking twist lol, but it makes sense! Will check it out, thank you!

Yellowface had a lot of potential for me, but ultimately fell flat. I had to force myself to finish it! It's not even because the MC was unlikable (I like reading about unlikable characters)... I just thought it was * gasp * boring. 😬 Currently listening to Ninth House and I have no clue where the story is going. 😂

Heyyy girl. I have a question. I saw that you use kindle (correct me if i am wrong). So my question is that what kind of kindle do you use? And also can u tell me something about it? I am in my reading area and i am thinking about to buy a kindle but i am not sure if I should buy it or not. And I love your reading content

@jaimefok

Hi love! I have the kindle paperwhite and I love it. So easy to hold, easy on the eyes and for some reason I read SO FAST on it lol. I’ll always still buy physical books, esp for the ones I really love, series etc. but I love the kindle for the miscellaneous books I read, because they are so much cheaper than physical!
