Your videos and voice are like a warm hug after getting soaked through in the rain. Strange the Dreamer has been on my TBR for ages, will hopefully get round to it this year!

@@KalynAbridged I have a very cool recommendation for you! I know you'll love it. It is here on KZread. It is called ASMR Rooms. It has ambient Harry Potter scenes that you can play on your TV screen or Tablet. So awesome. There are others. You can peruse those also. Enjoy! Thanks for your book recommendations. They are perfect fit for me.

Wow. How did I just now discover your channel??? Your enthusiasm is infectious! I feel like we have very similar taste in books, because I now want to read every one that you mentioned in this video! I’m definitely subscribing. ☺️

THIS INTRO. THE VIBES. I JUST LOVE YOU SO MUCH. ♥️ The Wicked King! Yassss NEVERNIGHT. I didn’t think I would love it so much!

Aw I love the intro!! You're so sweet & I'm happy you've joined the booktube community! Your reading vlogs are some of my favorite ones to watch :) The Wicked King was one of my faves of 2019 too! Still need to read The Queen of Nothing though!

Aww Mackenzie thank you so much for your sweet comment, I’m so happy to be a part of the community as well. So glad you love The Wicked King as well 🙌🏻

I loved how these books became your favorite not only because the stories were good but also because they connected with you on a more personal level. A silent voice is also one of my favorite stories everrrr.

Love hearing you gush and feel so passionate about what you've been reading. Here's to another great reading year!

Hearing your love for these books makes me so happy about being a reader as I am reminded how happy I am with books in my life. Amazing video as always

The intro made me so nostalgic. I loved spending my 2019 watching your videos 😂😂❤

i'm obsessed with your videos and oh my god you are SO BEAUTIFUL i can't

Circe sounds so good! AndI'm in love with the Holly Black world too :) I've only read the first book at this point but I'm looking forward to the rest!

Oh my, the intro! ♥️♥️♥️ I love the voice over part! Felt nostalgic for some reason. So many books, so little time!

The Green Glasshouse sounds really good! I have also felt like I’ve been called to adopt. There are so many kids in this world that need someone to love them. I’ll have to check out that book.

Daytripper 🥰 I reread this every year and cry every time 🙈 Its so beautiful and does not get enough praise! I feel like no one talks about it. I’m so glad you also loved it! ♥️

LOVE you content!! Seriously my new fav channel.

You mentioned so many of my favorites in your video- from Folk of the Air to Strange the Dreamer To Sorcery of Thorns! Now I’m tempted to give The Poppy War a shot since it seems like we have similar taste!

Great video! You sold me on the Daytripper even though I haven't read many graphic novels! And another positive Poppy War review... maybe I should take a hint and read it!

Loved the Intro so Nostalgic 💕💕

yes! I felt exactly the same about Strange the Dreamer - just such a wonderous read!! Have 1.5h left on my audio of Muse of Nightmares...and I am really trying to eek it out so it doesn't end haha I thought Wundersmith was even better than Nevermoor :) Great video! - I added a bunch to my TBR

Your videos were definitely a warm cozy place to go to and escape to for me in 2019 💛✨ loved hearing you so passionate about all your favourite books and you make me want to read all of them(that I haven't read) like right NOW haha

Thanks so much for sharing! The intro was great!

I really liked you sat your book on the table when you were discussing it, it makes it easier for me to pause the video to get a good look at it so I can add it to my TBR. Other booktubers will get super excited about the book they are discussing and just wave it around 😂

Yessssss :) This video was my most anticipated favourites video (and we needed to wait a lot :D ) and I know that it will be good :) The vibe, the atmosphere and these beautiful books :) I read 6 of them, and all of them were 5 stars, so I definitely trust in your taste :) I will read rest in 2020 :D

Thanks for all the great recs! Also, side note, your voice is so soothing and calming.

I loved so many of these as well! I totally added The Greenglass House to my tbr just now. I think you would absolutely love Far From the Tree by Robin Benway it's about adoption and made me cry so hard. I think you would also love Carry On and Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell. They also have that sweet kind vibe that just brings happiness. Some other books you may love based on your video: Wonder by R.J. Palacio, An Enchantment of Ravens by Margaret Rogerson, Soppy by Phillipa Rice, and Everyone's an alien when you're an alien too. I hope you look into these because I honestly think you would love them!

I agree with everything you said about spinning silver, it’s one of my top books of all time!! I loved strange the dreamer and the folk of the air series too! Other favorites of 2019: the first 2 books of the storm light archive series by Brandon Sanderson, The Secret History by Donna Tartt, and Song of Ice and Fire by the GRRM

Hi Kalyn, how are you? I love watching your channel growing. You totally deserve it, you put so much effort on your videos. You are so kind and sweet. The intro was stunning btw. I am really excited to read Circe ( Kirki in Greek) my mom has already read it and she loved it. I really enjoy Madeline Miller's writing. I totally recomend you the *The song of Achilles* of her, it is such an amazing book, I am pretty sure you are going to love it. Have a great day!

I think you would love The Witch’s Boy by Kelly Barnhill (the author of The Girl Who Drank the Moon) I have never heard it talked about on Booktube but the story is a middle grade gem! The story warmed my heart and took me back to my childhood 😭💖

Thanks for making such wonderful videos in 2019! Your descriptions of books & video style are so inspiring and thought provoking! I found your channel about 6 months ago & seeing your love of reading has encouraged me to get back into reading as well❤❤ A few of my favorites from last year were manga😂 and I enjoyed the Golden Compass as well, one of my few prose reads! A Silent Voice is such a wonderful series I really love the theme of not sitting by and taking a stance! Ueno and Kawai were both frustrating & interesting characters! Kawai's view of herself is so conceited but so realistic, in that people tend to not see their flaws! I loved how flawed and real the characters were. How did you feel about the characters? And the art style?🤩 If you didnt know the author has another series currently in print called To Your Eternity! Looking forward to your 2020 book journey!💫
