[@alexandraroselyn]

Katytastic you better😘

[@logansierra3012]

I read dress codes for small towns after watching Chandler’s video last year and it is just so incredible. Loved it!!

[@livslibrary]

Have you read Strange the Dreamer? That was such an interesting book & I’m so excited to pick up the Smoke & Bone trilogy too! Ugh yes, the Grace Year! That cover is absolutely GORGEOUS. ✨ VICIOUS. 👏🏻 A Darker Shade of Magic wasn’t that great. Also, did you dye your hair? It looks a lot darker at the ends. 🤔

[@alexandraroselyn]

Liv’s Library yes! I really liked Strange the dreamer! And ok I’ll def start with Vicious!!!!! Thanks Liv❤️

[@alexandraroselyn]

Liv’s Library oh! And no I didn’t lol I think it’s just the lighting- you can’t tell but it’s actually kind of overcast which makes my hair look darker :)

[@BasicallyBrittx]

The Grace Year!! I got that one in a subscription box recently and it sounds indeed so cool and unique! I really hope to read this one too this year! Good luck with your tbr!

[@alexandraroselyn]

Basically Britt aw thanks Britt! And I’m excited to pick it up!! I hope we both love it lol. Ooooo we should do a buddy read sometime with it too if you’re down! :)

[@rebekahmackenzie]

I also want to read A Darker Shade of Magic this year!

[@alexandraroselyn]

Rebekah Mackenzie I hope we both love it!!!

[@MaryAmongStories]

North Child sounds amazing! happy reading 💗

[@alexandraroselyn]

Mary Among Stories thank you Mary💕

[@michelleanderson6085]

The book of lost things was really good. it's hard for me to stay interested in books all the way through and I survived that one with ease. Also thank you for going through these with a little info on them. I'm excited to read some of these

[@SignedbySanne]

Great selection of books, most of these i'm super excited to read as well! Also pleeease read the Book of Lost Things soon, it's so good and more people should talk about it!

[@alexandraroselyn]

thebookdutchess oh yay!! I’m glad you liked it I’ll bump it up on my list!!!! And thank you :)

[@ZarriahRose]

Love hearing what's on your list! I want to read Ninth House and House of Salt and Sorrows in 2019!

[@alexandraroselyn]

ZarriahRose ooooo dame for me with Salt and Sorrows!! I only read half and loved it!! Good luck on your TBR Z :)

[@sds7613]

Wow I'm so happy you're updating more!😃 and I think you would like a darker shade of magic more than vicious 😅 I loved the books you're planning to read! Specially book of lost things and starless sea which I'm currently reading and love love love it!😍😆

[@alexandraroselyn]

Sepideh Dehghani oh yay I love hearing that you’re loving The Starless Sea!!! And also thank you for the kind words :)❤️

[@autumnritchie1473]

I read The Shadow of the Wind last year for my library book group & it was the best thing I read until I read The Nevernight trilogy. It was something different for me, but I was so hooked into the story! It’s amazing storytelling & I want to continue with the series! One of the plot twists is a bit crazy (just want to warn you) but the book still really left an impression on me. It’s a bit intense...but I’m interested to see how you like it. I’m starting Night Film because I’ve now seen it on Becca’s & your channel! I hope you get to & enjoy these books! Many of them I want to read as well! 😊✨✨ Happy Saturday, Lexi! 🤗💕💕 Happy Reading! 🤓📚✨

[@alexandraroselyn]

Autumn Ritchie YOURE SO SWEET HI AUTUMN!!! I’m so glad you liked The Shadow of the Wind!!! I’m excited!!

[@ashm4738]

Based on what I've seen in your videos, I think you will love Anna-Marie McLemore. Wild Beauty was my favourite but all the ones I've read are beautiful reads. The Weight of Feathers is on my list this year. I also think you'll like Shadow of the Wind.

[@norastales947]

"WHAT IF I READ IT AND I HATE IT???" omg I felt this 🤣🤣🤣 Some awesome reads and editing in here!

[@alexandraroselyn]

Liv the Fairytale Aw thank you!!!!!! 😊

[@MLLatUtube]

I read Ninth House and really enjoyed it, although it can be a bit gruesome in parts. I also read The Starless Sea. I agree with you about her writing being lyrical and beautiful, but I found that despite that I just didn't care about what happened to the characters. I will be interested to see how you feel about both books.

[@toridreaming]

YES THE GRACE YEAR 😭 loved it so much. I believe it’s being made into a movie. Was a favorite of 2019, hope you love it!

[@alexandraroselyn]

Medusa Reads I DIDNT KNOW THAT OMG!! I’m even more excited now yay!!!!

[@safinan8008]

Hi my favourite genre is fantasy!! Happy reading to u!!

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Oooo The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making ay? I'm interested!

[@alexandraroselyn]

How to Train Your Gavin I hope it’s good!!😩

[@shreyabooked9309]

It's an interesting book, though it did tend to be too much in one story. At least that's what I felt. But it had some very lovely fantasy ideas.

[@Blessedmommy22]

I just read The Grace Year and you’ll LOVE it

[@emmakgill]

The Astonishing Color of After is such a beautiful story! I think you'll love it❤📚

[@alexandraroselyn]

Emmy Meyer oh yay!! I love hearing that I can’t wait to get to it!!😊

[@poonamrawat1253]

I think you should read Michael vey series it is wonderful I have loved it

[@jampsonn1826]

My biggest goal of 2020: reading the whole harry potter series!!

[@luciameetsbooks]

Ohh I'm so excited to see you read a horror book! 😂 Those edits are awesome Alex

[@alexandraroselyn]

Luupi thank you :)

[@readbymarta2781]

i want to read so many of this this year too! hopefully we'll get to them!

[@pandareads]

YES to the anticipated releases video!!

[@alexandraroselyn]

panda ä ❤️❤️❤️

[@bookboop]

Oh my goodness yes, the fear of not loving a book is real! Everyone loves it, and what if I don't?? Totally with you there.

[@jubilantjude]

YASSSS! the queen schwab, i love both vicious and ADSOM but if your looking for an easier read with not to much world building i would go with vicious but if you want a book with fantasy and magic go with ADSOM :D

[@alexandraroselyn]

Julian Latios I think I’m leaning towards that one!! Ok you convinced me!😊

[@ohsoabby4689]

I loved If We Were Villains!!! It was one of my fav books of 2019 and I honestly can’t recommend it enough!!!!!!

[@enchantedadventuresthrough3065]

Daughter of Smoke and Bone is a bought series but also an audiobook in my Audible cart right now. I just need to save money to buy all the stuff I want. Hopefully Audible doesn't screw me over like they did last time I bought audiobooks. They do this often, too. ... Fairyland... is on my 2nd TBR stack. If I had money, I would add it to my Audible books, but no money, no audiobook. The Starless Sea, I was able to get it on Audible and wanna read it soon, but I have so many books I anna read that I don't know what to read first. The only books I know I wanna read this year are the ones in the first TBR stack, which are: ACOTAR Orion Lost Alanna: The First Adventure Pages & Co.: The Book Smugglers The Last Wild Cogheart Charmed Life (DWJ) If I get through these, I will pick other books I already have on Audible, but the way I'm reading I think it will be done slowly. I also have all the KZbin videos to watch so it takes up my time as well. 5 more videos to reach #100!

[@lovelydaywithholly]

Just found your channel and subbed!!!! 🧡

[@paulagarcia1941]

I know this has nothing to do with books but I am loving your lipstick!! What are you wearing? :) I just discovered your channel so subscribing now!

[@alexandraroselyn]

Paula Garcia thank you!! I believe it’s from Makeup Forever and it’s their liquid lipstick in the shade....oh gosh 241??? I’ll check on that later!!

[@grainneocruhuir6383]

A night of cakes and puppets is the daughter of smoke and bone novella about the main character karou’s best friend zuzanna. It is one of my favourite books of all time it’s so magical and beautiful ans spooky, 13/10 would recommend. It’s set during the first book daughter of smoke and bone. So it doesn’t spoil the other two books and only mildly spoils the first book

[@gmeagher12]

Bone gap is soooo underrated I hope you love it!

[@poonamrawat1253]

I want to read Nevermoor and a pinch of magic

[@She_has_got_it]

Can you do a video on your TBR pls

[@m.a.james4448]

Two Alexandra Roselyn videos in a week? Is it my birthday? :)

[@alexandraroselyn]

M.A. James YOURE SO SWEET OMG🥺❤️❤️❤️

[@reluctantlyme2255]

I finished The Grace Year recently and was super disappointed 🙈 I can see what the author was trying to do I just had some issues with it, so I am super interested to hear what you say about it!

[@rileyrobertson8354]

a good middle grade trilogy, maybe even YA is Neptune Project it's so good!!!!!!!!!! though I would say it's 11 and up, there's a bit of romance...

[@rebeccamorrison1313]

Let us know when you decide to start reading Shadow of the Wind,! It's been on my TBR for years and, just like you, I really want to read it but just haven't. So I'll read it when you do lol.

[@alexandraroselyn]

Rebecca Morrison oh yay perfect!! ❤️

[@abeautifulchaosofbooks]

I really want to read a couple of these too! Good luck

[@alexandraroselyn]

a beautiful chaos of books thanks Nicole :)

[@thoranacreates]

Vicious is much easier to get into than darker shade of magic but they’re both great!

[@hadia9]

I definitely loved Vicious more than ADSOM but I am sure you'll enjoy both!

[@alexandraroselyn]

Hadia Mahmood i think I’m leaning more to starting with that one now!! Thanks for your comment friend :)❤️

[@meltotheany]

i hope you love all of these, beautiful! (and i love youuu) 💙xx

[@kikik5266]

Did you read the Shadow of the wind?

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

Ooo yes Dig is on my list too!!

[@alexandraroselyn]

Jay G it sounds so good!! I hope we love it!😩

[@She_has_got_it]

Love your channel

[@margotling9851]

Stephen King's It is a hauntingly good read, Isabel Allende's Daughter of Fortune is splendid

[@hayley5721]

The book of lost things is one of my favorite books ever and I loved Bon Gap and If we were villains! I get so excited when I see you put out a new video, love your videos 💕

[@alexandraroselyn]

[@zubaerchaudhari8267]

Alexander Roselyn hello

[@alexandraroselyn]

Zubaer Chaudhari hiiiiiii

[@ChristyLou]

Personally I liked Vicious over A Darker Shade of Magic (I'm probably in the minority), but I don't like the sequel to Vicious at all (honestly skip it).
