[@Kaioazer]

It s been 4years or more that i ve been following Hannah. I always wished that she ll start doing book content whenever she mentioned her kinddle or i get a glimpse of the books in her shelves. And now is the the timee finallyyy😍😍❤️

[@readingwithmiryana]

I am SO here for ALL your book content, this is SO exciting! I, just like you, feel like reading changed my life. I cannot ever imagine going back to being a non-reader!

[@kathylovingshimer6708]

The Nightingale is made into a movie of the same name

[@kathylovingshimer6708]

I read that and I loved that book . I have read several of her books and I love how she writes

[@taliasxx]

Bookish vlogs are SO SATISFYING. Inspiring me to pick up my book on my nightstand! Love your list!

[@Nour_Gamall]

Hannah, I’ve been watching you for 4 years and I always believed you are like me in everything. The one thing I always waited for was you TALKING ABOUT BOOKS. This side of you is emerging and I’M SO READY for it❤❤❤

[@ryleefichter9600]

A Court of Silver Flames is my favorite ACOTAR book in the whole series. It made me appreciate Nesta so much more as a character and I also related a lot to her too. The thing I loved most about it though was the friendships she made and how she found her own way in the world. Such an amazing book.

[@layla.22]

omg girl can't wait to read it💌currently at wings and ruin and luv it so much

[@izzyr497]

watching hannah at work is like free therapy. ily hannah!🩷

[@renegarofalo1569]

I am an avid reader, and at almost 60 this year, I’ve read a freaking lot of books.😊 You did an excellent job of describing your important books. You made me want to read every one. Thank you!

[@kat_unfiltered]

I’ve been WAITING for this vlog!!

[@emmyru.k]

Hannah, I just recently started watching your videos but you have easily become a comfort KZbinr. I am so so excited that you are starting to make reading videos (as I am a huge reader). Thank you for being you and keep it up! ❤

[@mgreyce9139]

loved this video so much, especially when you talked specifically about how the books impacted you - love this more than typical book reviews. please do more of these!

[@cherylzink3612]

I always love listening to what you have to say Hannah! Thank you the commentary about the books! You couldn't get me to read a book in school, but after I graduated, I read and read! These are new books to me so I will look into them! Have a great week Hannah! 💚🦋🌞

[@joonprint]

you've already been one of my favorite youtubers since 2020, but now you're doing book content and i couldn't be happier!

[@alexiss1457]

I've been looking forward to this one for a while! Thank you Hannah for giving us this gem!

[@audreyhamilton5765]

words cannot describe how happy i am that you finally posted a book video!!! honestly you have helped me so much to start reading again! i added these books to my tbr!

[@anyas.6229]

I love the midnight library so much. Books that truly make you rethink your perspective on life are precious.

[@cm1229]

Hannah the fit and vibe is EVERYTHING!! 😍

[@umapraharshitha]

i am soo glad you got back intlo reading. i felt the same way about silver flames. ik its either love it or hate it but i am glad to be on the love side. pushing everyone away? isolating? self sabotage? basically a book about me lol

[@bonniemae1397]

I think we’ve had such a similar reading journal over these last few months!! So excited!!

[@beautiwoods]

So excited for your reading / bookish era!!! LOVE IT!

[@cristinacindric]

Your hair colour compliments you so well right now! The lip gloss and everything it all looks so lovely 💓

[@alexiasaneholtz6810]

I am just starting my little reading journey, since I’ve never read much and I love this video! I’ve been looking for new books and I love people explaining them in depth, which you do a good job at. Post more like this!

[@hollyoberhansly2303]

The Nightgale is one of my top 10 all time favorite books. Love all Kristin Hannah books, but this is the best one.

[@cheeyahmay8705]

I’m so glad you read fourth wing, I loved it. I binged Acotar but tog became my favorite series. The characters and story in TOG have my heart.

[@jordynmarie245]

I loved this video!! It’s so special to find a connection to characters and their stories. I’m on book 2 of ACOTAR and this made me so excited to power through!!

[@mariajose-he7xq]

a court of silver flames had me in tears. I related to nesta in so many ways and her journey was so inspiring. Currently reading book 3 of throne of glass series! Would love to see a review when you’re done with them ❤

[@adeladrabkova8487]

i could listen to you talking about books all day everyday!!

[@sidhavikakodkar868]

OH MY GOD!!!! I very recently read Fourth Wing and I'm Completely in LOVE with everything about it..... I've never been so captivated by a book like this before and God I'm in love with Xaden 😭❤️. Also I totally agree with Midnight Library being a life changing book. It's one of those books you carry with yourself throughout life. I've read 3 and am looking forward to reading the remaining 2. Ps: please make more book rec videos in the future.... clearly you have brilliant taste in books ❤✨

[@silvinhabruno]

Now I added 2 books to my list! Thank you for this kind of video Hannah,it’s very inspiring ❤

[@arachelb112]

I got back into reading after hearing you recommend Fourth Wing and Acotar. I relate so strongly to the same types of characters and development too. Just added two new books to my TBR, thank you for this!

[@kloeyoversmith]

omg thank you for this video!!! that first book is a book i need to read after the quote you quoted!! loved this ❤

[@luciaperales7566]

I am SO HAPPY you're sharing these ❤❤❤ I'm trying to restart a healthy reading habit and this is so helpful 🙏🏻 You're my fave, thank you ✨

[@chloeschaedy6395]

[@tzuchi3358]

I really don’t expect I can feel more relatable to you than I already do❤❤❤Hannah you are the real one, I always find inspiration from you because the struggle and thought process etc. were just so similar, you give me strength for life when I saw you (feel just like twins lol) have your ways. Really thank you and ily❤️‍🔥

[@StefElizabeth]

LOVE this book tube Hannah! Would love more like this

[@gabisantana6143]

[@hollyken3]

HERE for the book content!! thanks for sharing !

[@dagmaraaxx7020]

i love books and you so this is the most perfect combination ever!

[@miguelkennedy9520]

Hannah Elise’s videos make me smile 😊

[@starstv9775]

I finished the first of ACOTAR today and I seriously LOVE it so far - I'm really excited to get through it and read the 5th one because of how you described it and Nesta's journey - she seemed so self-centered, especially at the start of ACOTAR, so I'm excited to see her perspective on everything.

[@keylyrics9676]

The book that completely changed my perspective of life is “the house in the cerulean sea” by tj klune, I always say that this book found me when I was dealing with a break-up and feeling stuck in general, and it helped me to understand that in order to have the life that you want, you gotta break the bubble you’re in and get out of your comfort zone, I love it 💗

[@wendybrown500]

Yes to book videos by Hannah!!!! 🙋🏻‍♀️

[@manlkro7028]

OBSESSED with the book content!!!!

[@bohemianfantasies]

I’m a real one! ❤ I’ve watched you for five years now and I’m just so proud of you! ❤❤❤❤

[@abidhabi5828]

hannah you are my fancast for Nesta, you are HER❤️

[@rosiecrivello1362]

I read acotar first and as much as I love that series, throne of glass changed my life. I'm so excited for you to read it and to hear your thoughts. I also just finished reading fourth wing for the first time and it got me out of such a bad reading slump and literally you talking about it is exactly how I feel.

[@janefox3188]

I loved your video today. I want to read a few of the books you mentioned today. Love your passion!!

[@myahasarah507]

Yes 🙌 this is exactly what I’ve been waiting for ❤

[@gabby_olivari]

The Nightingale is a beautiful story!! One of my all-time favourites. The Huntress by Kate Quinn is also a historical fiction book and you should read it!!! The Midnight Library is beautiful as well!

[@samybarcelloss]

[@h.frederking5190]

[@samantharoberts4519]

Really enjoyed this Hannah x

[@meganobrien9520]

Matt Haig’s personal story speaks so much to me ❤ Midnight Library isn’t for me at this moment, but his Notes On An Anxious Planet is one I read in high school and I think about every day!😊

[@JeanneRowland]

Totally love the book content! Perhaps add a weekly "what am I reading vlog" each week (really short, not too burdensome to produce/edit) in addition to your weekly video? Would love that! (No pressure!)

[@laurenmarinda]

😍😍 midnight library is the book that got me into reading and since then I’ve loved fourth wing and I’m about to start acotar ❤❤ I love this

[@EllieMontgomery18]

I’m obsessed!! I’m definitely gonna need more reading vlogs❤️

[@alannamiller2076]

We definitely need a reading vlog!

[@StephanieYariann]

Being a Fourth Wing girlie and having just started ACOTAR, like I'm literally still reading the first book, this couldn't have been better timing AND you're literally making me giggle with the Fourth Wing review hahah. I simply cannot wait for the third book in this series, I know it probably won't top the first one but girl, I need to keep reading about Violet and Xaden🤭 Also, I'm always a real one 🫶🏻

[@AdrianasWonderland]

great video ❤ i have the midnight library and the fourth wing on my tbr ❤

[@jtsantana2]

I will be WAITING for more bookish content💗🤩

[@ReeBuz]

i love your sneaky cat, coming to drink 17:22 i also loved the midnight library

[@minilabtech]

You inspired me to start reading again! If you did a monthly bookclub I would definitely join :)

[@Chelsea.Cristina]

I read The Midnight Library a few months ago because I saw it was a book you read.... and I LOVED it 📚 It was heavier and moodier than any book I have read but the themes and overall message of the book was really good and so true. It's crazy to think that our regrets may not even be regrets but just paths we didn't take with no guarantee we would be happy.

[@saracolladovalero8579]

I just loooooove to hear you talk about books😍😍😍

[@izzyr497]

as a lifelong bookworm, seeing my fave youtuber get into reading is the most exciting thing ever!!

[@melanies5547]

looove the revival of girls getting into reading 💌 I’m so excited to read some of your faves!

[@evelyne.u]

Yessss LOVED this video! We need a part 2, part 3, part 4.. 😉

[@LynnT2280]

[@user-ej8dx3lk8k]

Love the book content! Fourth wing also catapulted me into fantasy again and I’m halfway through the ACOTAR series now :)

[@alexisbas10]

You have to read throne of glass!!

[@user-ej8dx3lk8k]

@@alexisbas10 yes that will be next!!

[@HannahArdiff]

Kristin Hannah's new book The Women is so so amazing, I loved the nightingale and the women might be even better!! its about women who experienced vietnam and came home with trauma and its so heartwrenching

[@gabbyreads]

I’m here for the books videos 👏

[@hannahreneebanana]

[@katiemilbrath]

[@jazzielyntagud2758]

Okay, more book content please!!! Can’t wait!

[@bohemianfantasies]

I checked out “The Subtle Art..” & “A Court of Silver Flames” today! Plus, put all of the others on hold at my library. I cannot wait! 🎉

[@tokkasjoberg]

I have to admit: I cried my eyes out when you talked about “the midnight liberally”! And now I bought the book 📕! I mean like damn, am I okay , too?!
