Ruby Red is one of my favorite YA trilogy :). Time travelling is such a good theme in books !!!

[@randomreader]

Does Ruby Red have any sexual content I should be aware of? If it does, I'm not sure I'll read it if its graphic.

[@anetamisikova8389]

randomfreckles1831 Not at all, it´s very sweet novel suitable for all ages, no sexual content and certainly not graphic :)

[@randomreader]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate you answering my question

[@anetamisikova8389]

randomfreckles1831 no problem, glad to help! subscribed to you, I love booktube community, thinking about joining it myself :)

[@randomreader]

Thanks for subscribing! It really means a lot to me!

[@beatrizluv1]

I always get super excited whenever I see one of your book hauls! 😊 Your videos brighten up my day, so thank you!

[@abookutopia]

Aw that makes me so happy to hear!!!

[@ChrissieMadIpod]

Henry VIII is Henry the Eighth. One of the most famous tudors. He had 6 wives during his lifetime. Two divorce, one died, two beheaded and then one survived. Bit of English history for you there. :D

[@courtneybrooks9454]

Your room is like book hevan! I wish I had such an amazing book collection :)

[@chitrinitandon8353]

[@tashapolis]

[@AndreyaKlobucar]

Reading the comments on this video and laughing. This is Sasha's Chanel, she create the content and she can do whatever she wants.

[@AWallflowersLife]

Fitting all those books in 11 minutes... wow Sasha, you are talented

[@comadustfire4795]

The Pendragon series changed my life! I am slowly acquiring all of the series in hardcover and I read them back when I was in junior high! You will not be disappointed. I hope to see more videos of the Pendragon series!

[@cardinalsluvbooks2183]

That sounds totally like me! Last night, my bed was covered in both books and clothes, but I came home so late from a Halloween party that I simply wrapped myself in sheets and hardbacks... I woke up with Jem Carstairs pressed up against my cheek. xD

[@karina.g.8088]

LOOK AT ALL THOSE BOOKS! Awww a lot of them i am really looking forward to reading, but i mean with school and all its really hard to get time to read. Like i have 6 exams/assessments due next week and i'm totally dreading it! But right now it's the weekend, so i'm watching booktube to make me happy :D

[@Charmants123Baisers]

The Pendragon series is one of my absolute favorite! I am rereading the series and am on the 6th book right now, they are amazing! : )

[@sodapopx3582]

The Jewel is soooooo good!! Its absolutely amazing!!! I finished it the other day and cannot get over the ending!!

[@kitty172113]

Omg same! Though the ending was sort of predictable.

[@HeartFullOfBooks]

I'm really glad to see that Geek Girl has made it to America, because the series is so wonderful and fun! I hope you enjoy the first book! :)

[@lizwidner1208]

Good list! Can't wait to check 'em out! I was super inspired by you Sasha, so I went out and bought my first copy of Outlander and am super stoked to read it! Thanks for inspiring me to read more! :)

[@JacobMObrien]

Thank you , Readers like you keep Authors like me inspired to keep up our heart stopping trilogies. Even if it may be under a pen name

[@359GG]

the Jewel !!! loved that book second one coming out soon yayay

[@alexanderivarson856]

Best book haul videos on KZbin. Also your super gorgeous 😍

[@elizabethlamadrid1428]

You'll love Ruby Red! Warning: You'll love and hate Gideon at the same time (the final feeling will be love)

[@BooksAndBigHair]

That Ruby Red read book cover is gorgeous and sounds so interesting!

[@st4rb0y333]

You should watch the TV show Reign... IM SO OBSESSED. Its set in 1500 Scotland/ Frace and the main character is MARIE QUEEN OF SCOTLAND *>*

[@lannapeanut]

I wouldn't really consider it anything to do with Scotland considering how inaccurate most of it is (there's nothing really Scottish about it aside from some names and vague details), but it's still pretty awesome.

[@adri0621]

I love that show so much!

[@katthernandez8490]

Ugh, I can't get enough of that show !!!

[@st4rb0y333]

i know im so obsessed :D

[@VanessaMarieBooks]

You have Unleashed! Soooo lucky! I'm jealous right now, I'm dying to get my hands on that book! Uninvited was one of my favorite books of 2014!

[@msmichellewinchester]

Roman numerals are pretty easy. I find them really cool, because it's fun to figure them out. So in case you're interested: Romans had signs only for a few numbers. I is 1 (pretty obvious), V is 5 (there's a bunch of jokes about a guy ordering two beers in Rome and getting five instead, when he rose two fingers :D), X is ten, L is 50, C is 100, D is 500 and M is 1000. For every other number you have to use math to write it. Most of the time you add up. Like 2 is 1+1, so you write II. 7 is 5+1+1 so you write VII. But you generally shouldn't have more than three identical signs right next to each other, so for a number like 9, which is 5+1+1+1+1, you would have VIIII, which we don't use anymore. Instead you write it as 10-1, which is IX (you write the lower number first to indicate substraction). That's it. It might be more complicated for some of the higher numbers, but to identify kings, you really just need this :D.

[@LaurenceRoberge]

I absolutely love Ruby Red! I read the series a while ago and it is still one of my favorites.

[@Bookish_hollow]

I really like the Pendragon series, I have read the first two and just need to get to the rest of them. Happy Reading!

[@lottecooper4370]

OOHHH, Ruby Red! :) Kerstin Gier is one of the most famous authors back here in Germany. Ruby Red is her best book ever. I've known it for several years now and it's still one of my favourite books! (The 3rd in the series is the best) :) Greetings from the almost other side of the world! Anna

[@breannabrooker5511]

Great video, what a big book hall, no wonder your bookshelves are so full! Im so jealous and am definitely going to pick up some of these books. When i saw the Outlander Graphic novel, i finally decided to read the actual book and found a old copy on my mums bookshelf, score!

[@ranikasharma3697]

your enthusiasm for books is so cute

[@robynhanson1229]

Omg!!! Geek Girl is finally in the US. It's sooo good you'll love it :D I picked it up in my local bookstore because it was on a buy one get one half price offer and it turned out the author was going to be there the next day so I got the whole lot (so far) signed :D

[@HaileyinBookland]

so many great books! i bought the madman's daughter after i hear you talking about it, i'm excited to read it!

[@mademoizelleflo]

Ha, impressive ! Ruby red is really nice ! Original, witty and well written ! And yeah, the cover is so so gorgeous ! And yeah, reading roman number is pretty difficult. In France we've got to learn to read them because that's the way we write centuries...

[@danielagarridovalls3181]

You were right about "obsidian" ❤️😍 im madly in love with daemon ... Jennifer is an awsome writer :)

[@TheTaylorHanson]

Love when you do book hauls, there AMAZING!!

[@veronicavolumes]

[@deliar.4326]

[@bookishlylauren]

That's a lot of books!! I hope you do reviews on a lot of them!

[@jessicaorourke6839]

Pendragon is amazing! I've never met anyone who'd heard of the series, but you seriously need to read it!

[@row2731]

Oh i read geek girl and have gotten the next two books in the series! its really cute and lol hilarious! great haul!

[@ohitsmandi]

So many books! I'm an a book buying ban so I'll live vicariously through you. :)

[@ladymacbook4255]

I want to read Not a Drop to Drink soooo bad!! Also, I think everyone is in agreement that A Thousand Pieces of You has the prettiest cover in existence.

[@skylovesbooks6487]

The Madman's Daughts is based off of The Island of Dr. Moreau. I bought it today and I'm really excited to read it.

[@itsjuststeph13]

Great book haul. I will definitely be reading some of these books!

[@robintheis2705]

This is perfect! Thank you Sasha! 😍

[@abookutopia]

Thank you!!

[@sartikapusl9676]

I'm kinda proud to be German*-* There are movies for Ruby Red and Saphire Blue in Germany. Watched them both and they were amazing, just like the books*-* Love you Sasha:*

[@shoppinglover605]

I watched Ruby Red translated to English. It was pretty awesome :)

[@Lilleks1234]

Ruby Red movie is in english too and the movie is amazing

[@kayleighgregory6768]

You should watch Reign!! It's soooo good!x

[@xXBlackSheepRuleXx]

You are without a doubt my favourite booktuber!

[@art3mis202]

The majority of the books are my shelves are recommendations from you! Thanks so much

[@Ely-ly6bc]

Ruby red is amazing!! It's one of my favourite books :D

[@Myralovingbooks]

I love watching your videos :) You got so many great books! Awesome

[@HollyByGollyBooks]

WOW this is one hell of a book haul!!! :O I just got A Thousand Pieces of You today actually! I was so excited that they accidentally put it out early hahahah. And I'm so jealous you got the ARC for A Wicked Thing!! I'm really looking forward top reading it :)

[@ellawakelyn4691]

Uninvited by Sophie Jordan was literally the best book I have read in my life followed closely by Unleashed (the sequel) and the Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken. Thank you so much abookutopia because your book recommendations and even the books you mention are really awesome.

[@ellawakelyn4691]

I Was Here by Gale Forman was also a good book but I just picked it up at the local library without a reccomendation.

[@pookapy20]

OMG so many books! I think I'm gonna add some of those haul into my Xmas wish list. Also I'd wish I lived in America, awesome book deals! it was a lovely video. I enjoy watching your videos a lot!

[@cecilyplum845]

Tudor facts: late 15th century to early 17th century (1485-1603). VII = seventh (ruled 1485-1509). VIII =eighth (1509-1547). Seventh could also be IIIX, but unlikely. Eighth is also sometimes IIX.

[@EmmieLouDraws]

That folded book is beautiful!!

[@edenm.4040]

Sometimes I think it's ridiculous how many books BookTubers are given for review. I mean, you didn't even notice you have two copies of A Thousand Pieces of You.

[@user-lm5sb5vl9s]

It's called promotion.

[@edenm.4040]

Emily Reed Of course. But when you're given so many free books that you don't even notice duplicates, it's ridiculous. Or when you can't even pronounce the title and author of the book properly or tell us what the book is about, what's the point?

[@IEverWantMusic]

Eden M excuse me, but you sound really rude! don´t you now, that she is making videos for epic reads = harper? i think that´s the reason she is getting that many arcs and sasha is one of the booktubers, who uploads really often and makes great reviews. do you now how many work it is, to edit videos and stuff? i understand that it seems unfair, when "normal" people don´t get books for free, but you can always start a blog/channel and see how it works out for you :P and the reason people like her are making videos is not for free books, it´s because of passion and love for the books. publishers pay a lot of money to other sites for promotion and sending books to shops & co...why not send a book in excange for an honest review? and do you honestly now every book on your shelf and can pronounce author and title correctly? well, you must be so perfect.

[@edenm.4040]

You completely missed my point. I'm not talking about reviews. I'm talking about this video specifically. A book haul. I don't care that she received so many books. But when you receive so many that you don't even know that you have duplicates, or you receive so many that you can't even spend the time to tell us a little bit about them because the video will be "too long" - don't you see a problem with that? It turns into a video that says "hey guys, look at all these free books I got". I have absolutely no reason to go out and buy the books she was supposedly promoting because I was given no information about them.

[@BookishNook]

Eden M I was reading through these comments and I can't help but agree with you. She should have done two separate videos so that she could have described the books in details because, like you, I won't be looking into any of those since I didn't get any info. Also, she should have been more careful to not put two of the same copies because, as you said, it does come off as almost bragging. I felt like you were being pushed in a corner since they didn't understand your point :)

[@EJproductionsxD]

RUBY RED IS SO GOOD! I'm so excited for you to read it :D

[@arimaj781]

Ruby Red is sooooooo great❤️❤️ i love it💕

[@mariwettergreentonning3319]

I absolutely love the Ruby Red trilogy, have them in my language and english, now I just want them in hardcover

[@angelicnothings7350]

Do you watch Reign on the cw?? If not then you need to. That show is soo awesome!!! It's historical fiction and includes the queen of Scotland and a bunch of other kings and queens and princes.

[@sineadoreilly1486]

I normally can not stand love triangles and Outlander is kind of an obvious triangle, but and I really am interested by it because of you. :)

[@welldream2morro]

I appreciate the Scottish recommendations greatly! another great video.

[@denisemendoza507]
