2020 TOP ROMANCE STANDALONES

[@phoebs6184]

There’s Something about you that other you tubers don’t have like you just make my mood so much better ur energy is just yesssssss! Thankyou god

[@kpopidemy7732]

I agree. I feel like she shows the real her and that's what some youtubers lack. It makes it so much more real and personal, as if she's a friend that's talking to me about the books she's read, just needing to rant. This is kind of how me and my friends discuss books, the energy is the same.

[@md.sourov5903]

Book name: Love Lost No More: A Contemporary Romance This Romantic Book is a perfect gift for your Lover. Pre-order is running: amzn.to/3rfmejv

[@borene7100]

i guess Im asking randomly but does anyone know a trick to get back into an instagram account?? I was dumb forgot the password. I love any help you can offer me.

[@borene7100]

@Bruce Finn Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im in the hacking process now. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@borene7100]

@Bruce Finn It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thank you so much you saved my ass :D

[@ellie5560]

Credence was the first book I’d ever read that wasn’t a straight forward romance between two people (which I’ve always preferred cos TOO much conflict really puts me off) and I was shocked with how much I adored it! The idea of her being involved with all three guys intrigued me but didn’t expect to be as fascinated as I was and opened my world up to more complex romance, like reverse harems and poly romances

[@ambrelicious04]

Birthday girl has ruined me from any other book! Cant stop going back to that book!

[@BookishbevilBlogspot]

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I've already read it 3 or 4 times 💕🍩

[@KimRobinson1214]

I am 62 and just found a LOVE for reading because of your channel and the romance books. It is actually been very good for me and my husband, if you know what I mean! Thank you so much and doing these book reviews. Love your personality and your foul mouth and everything about you! Love you Mary! Keep keeping it real!

[@TierraLee04]

i just finished credence and i literally cried at the end. thank you for recommending it, it's now one of my most favorite books i've ever read and i've read a lot of books

[@monaedoyle3631]

You are the queen when it comes to romance and recommendations. I read Birthday Girl and I loved it. I bought Den of Vipers because of your recommendation. I have to check out the other books you mentioned. Your vlogs are amazing !!!!!!!

[@jalyntaylor7609]

I just wanna say that I’m a new subscriber this year. What I like about you and your channel is that your personality is so refreshing. You are unique to the other booktubers that I watch and you recommend books that I will almost never find anywhere else on KZbin. I know that you have said that you started your channel b/c you are lonely and I honestly feel that when I watch your videos or your IG stories, that I’m connecting with a friend b/c sometimes I feel lonely as well. So... thank you so much for your unapologetic opinionated/say what’s on your mind personality. Stay true to you and let’s hope that next year is better for all of us!!!

[@amandaredd3057]

Her unapologetic open opinions and just love for reading and romance is freaking contagious and absolutely what I love about her too ❤

[@hayleyandamandaramiza5444]

Credence was one of my absolute favorites of the year!!! It's definitely been a crazy crazy year, but I have never read more and I have found so many amazing stories. I just started watching your videos but I love seeing our books and reading line up a lot, but also getting to discover ones I have not yet found. Sometimes I go into a goodreads vortex and just keep reading these suggested books, so I am also really glad you have a goodreads to follow. Thank you for these videos

I always enjoyed reading, but between work and raising kids I never made time for books. When the pandemic forced us to stay home, I turned to reading. I found your channel and have loved some of your recommendations. I never would have picked some of the books you suggest on my own, so I enjoy watching your video to find a new book.

It was so me, like the most me book I’ve ever read and I am so sad it’s over because I feel so haunted by it (I need so much more Dani and Lachlan). Thank you for being a booktuber who actually reflects what I want to read as a young 20 something woman. I trust your judgment 100% and look forward to reading whatever else to recommend x
