There’s just something so adorable about watching people talk about their favorite books there’s just this glow in them and it makes me happy too
Watching destiny just talk about her favorite books for 30 minutes is literally the cutest most wholesome thing ever. i could sit here for 2 hours listening to her go on and on about these books shes just so funny and adorable and seeing someone show genuine excitement about a book is top teir because we all know that feeling i just love it so much
I just hit 100 books a few weeks ago! 140 is insane. I’m so burnt out. Thanks for all of your hard work! We really appreciate it!
There is a sequel for behind the net called “the fake out” and it’s even better than the first book 😍😍😍 3:29
I clicked faster then you can say bookmass

Perfect timing!!!! I recently found your videos and I just have to say they're so cozy and I love watching you talk about books! P.S. thank you for adding to my neverending TBR, you're the best
destiny’s videos feel like being on facetime with that one friend who you have never even had a scuffle with
I just started my 60th book of the year which is definitely the most I have read in a year, 140 is insane! About to go into a slump as my Uni exams are coming up in January but I know your videos and the rest of the book girlies will get me through! Have a great Christmas Destiny and everyone who watches 💞💞💞
Starting book 100 of the year tomorrow! My favorite for the year was definitely Kingdom of Ash! That book has me in a chokehold.
Starting from 23 and going down like des 23. Kingdom of the wicked 22. Collided by Lauren Asher 21. Flawless 20. Kiss the sky 19. Final offer 18. Birthday girl 17. The serpent and the wings of night 16. Daughter of no worlds 15. Thrive by k&b richie 14. King of wrath 13. The ballad of never after 12. Icebreaker 11. Fourth wing 10. The right move 9. Hothouse flower 8. King of greed 7. The assassin’s blade 6. A curse for true love 5. Heartless 4. Reckless 3. Crown of midnight 2. Heir of fire( I’ve only gotten this far in the series. Waiting until I get the rest for my bday or Christmas. Pretty sure my fav one will be queen of shadows) 1. Hunting Adeline * felt like an influencer just then listing stuff 😂. But ever since I read the read the cat and mouse duet, it’s been living in my head rent free for the past year and I know this duet is controversial and I understand why, it’s just an acquired taste and I ate it up.*

What is the reading order for The serpent and the wings of night?
@lilliepalmer18
7 ай бұрын
@@Booksarebetterthanhumans1989 okay so you could go into it with just reading the serpent and the wings of night and the ashes of the star cursed king or you could read the novella in between the books which is called six scored roses I think. I haven’t read that novella bc I’m on budget and I’m getting the ashes of the star cursed king for Christmas I think. Have fun reading!

Your videos got me back into reading!!! Love watching them ♡♡♡
**adds all books that I haven't bought / read straight to cart**
I love bookmas!! 🤶🏻🩷
You put me on to Behind the Net and I’m finishing up her small town romance series. I also think the cartoon people on all her covers are soooo cute!
Love that you have smj as your top 2!! Crescent city series is so amazing and throne of glass is just everything I love her 3 series with all my heart and I can't wait for her new book!!! I'm hoping aelin makes an appearance and all the other characters!! I will literally go crazy if it don't happen all 3 worlds must cross over!!!
having my goodreads open the entire time READY to add
i just finished powerless probably 7 mins ago and i am sobbing, 5 stars. im so glad it was on your top 23 books
I read the Caraval series and I am so excited to get into Once Upon A Broken Heart, that's up next! I enjoyed the storied life of AJ Fikry sooo much. That book changed my life and truly made me feel like books speak to us most when we read them at certain points in our lives. I also read Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow and would very much recommend that to late 80's/ 90's kids. So nostalgic. The seven Year slip is possibly my favorite romance novel I read this year.
I have to read happy place! And finish the TOG series. So happy you loved House of Sky and Breath!! I loved that one and can’t wait for book three to release in January!!
I starting heir of fire this wee. So excited to move on in the TOG world. I’m halfway through daisy haites and can’t wait to keep reading. I’ll be starting saving 6 this month also, when they release it on ebook. Love these.. so far my absolute number 1 book has been Keeping 13. So I am very ready to jump back in with Joey
the way I clicked this video instantly!! love love love when des posts🥹🫶🏼
ITS ANOTHER DESTINY BOOK VIDEO!!!!!!!!! Love love love! 🎀✨🫶🏼
19:41 I read this book as well and I agree with everything you said especially about Jack.
Tomorrow, and tomorrow and tomorrow has been engraved in my head. Still thinking about it ❤ I’m glad I picked it up when I saw it everywhere
100% agree ! I do not see as much hype around CRESCENT CITY and there should be! Absolutely love love love I think about the characters probably once a day and find myself getting super emotional over it when I’m in my car driving lol LOVE❤

I’m still watching but I’m so glad Love Redesigned made your list- I loved it so much
the video we’ve all been waiting for
Your videos are so wholesome and I love watching your videos every day!
“i love when a guy is… not a jerk-“ so real destiny
Destiny eats and leaves no crumbs 🍽️ 💗💗💗💗 ( also ms gurl got me hooked on alani’s 😭🤪
omg just read the seven year slip! ugh! top 5 for sure, such a cute one! TOG and Crescent City are on my TBR for 2024
Great Vid !! I'm new to Fantasy/Romance books, and Fourth Wing, really had me reading breakfast, lunch, and dinner. But your reactions to your favorite book "House of Sky and Breath has me wanting to give it a try.
The happiness I felt when you published this video is insane
my exam season stress is GONE when destiny posts
Love these bookmas videos🤍🤍🤍
I’m living for all these videos. 💗💗
🙋🏽♀️I’m ready!
I love the fact that you ordered them too xx
I loved the Naturals (and Inheritance Games) and Love Theoretically
Some of my faves this year were A Court of Silver Flames, When in Rome, The whole Magnolia Parks series but I’m a Daisy girl, and The Dead Romantics. And I am starting TOG next year!
I've read most of these books too and all the ones I've read are favourites of mine too. Great video ❤.
20. that book cover is stunning! 19. i bought carrie soto is back this year and i haven't gotten around to reading it yet but i have a feeling it will be a fave of mine too bc i looove tjr my favourite books i've read this year (the only ones i rated 5 star) was where the crawdad sings, the only one left by riley sager, and you are a badass at making money
I read Heartless first from Chestnut Springs and i think it broke me to the rest ❤
BEHIND THE NET WAS SOOOOO GOOD, I LOVED IT
YAYYY ive been waiting for this one AHHHHH
i love your voice. it‘s somehow so rough but also so sweet, wow!!
It’s okay girlll I also wear pjs on the bottom for KZread hahaa
You should definitely give The Plated Prisoner series a try (Gild being the first book). It's a fantasy romance that I haven't seen very much of but it's good. You'll cheer on the main girl as she fights for her independence and cheer for her relationship with a very morally grey villain who is the villain to everyone but her. Dual POV as well.
you put me on to behind the net & I LOVED IT
I was so excited to see this video! Clicked so fast. 😅 Great selection 😊 My favourite book of the year is Manacled. 😍Followed by the entire Zodiac Academy series. 😅🥹😍Fourth Wing and Iron Flame are also one of my favourite books of the year. These books rekindled my love of dragons.
Ahhh I loved this video!!! And I love your outfit btw
I just read They Call Her Sofia by Doris Ladino and I loved it! It’s a book about healing and finding self love after being betrayed and manipulated. It’s sweet and spicy. The audiobook is very entertaining and easy to listen to. Overall , It’s a feel good book and fast read. Enjoy!
lovee theseeee videosss , and soo glad we agree on boys of tommen being THE BEST SERIES EVER ...sports and contemporary romance girlies hereee
Behind The NET was my favorite! If you haven't read the sequel its so good!
Totally random but have you seen marbles agents of shield? If not, watch it! It’s so good and nobody talks about it! Also the romance is top tier!! Love your videos!
the nanny x single dad has been a big trope for a long time literally theres the 90’s sictom ‘the nanny’ with that as its main trope 😭
GIRL ur glowing! :)
holy black looks so good on you
I love ur vids!!! And I have never been this early!!💖💖💖
My favorites of the year, in no order: The Other Side by Kim Holden (1st 6 star read of the year, the mental health talk is so important) Shadowlands trilogy by Kate Brian Safe Harbor by K. Sinko Franco by Kim Holden The Naturals series - JLB Red Queen series - Victoria Aveyard (almost done with 3rd) Reminders of Him deserves an honorable mention.
Your Truly 😍 one of my top reads this year for sure
Loved this video. I have so many more recommendations now
Absolutely love this video! 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
reading 140 something books is a great feat!! Your videos make us feel like we are in the room talking to you!! Great job on bookmas so far 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
LITERAL QUEEN ✨
I absolutely love this list ❤
I just read by a thread in about 1 day and I don't think I'm ever going to get over that book. I love them. Also I desperately need a book about Christian and Faith because they could have such a good relationship down the line and I'd pay so much to see it
I have Behind The Net on my shelf!
good thing des posted this after i came back from indigo or else i would bought too much of des’s favs and would have been even more broke 😅
I miss your vlogs I hope you’ll still do the second half vlogmas💗💗💗
I gotta read some of these next year
