answering your questions while i knit a scarf🪡

[@areebakhan5738]

I love how despite a hard stem degree you are able to focus so much on reading as well...

[@IFarore]

The Kindle page turner…game changer. My hands freeze all the time and being able to keep them under a blanket while I read is amazing

[@katieisreading]

it sounds so elite honestly, i might have to break down and buy one😮

As a fellow mechanical engineer- welcome! None of us “love” it, but I do love when a product in the real world comes together. They look so cool. And if you find the right company, sometimes you get engineer/book friends. Us MechE ladies at work started a book club and Love Theoretically is next months book! So you just need to find the right crew in the real world.

[@katieisreading]

honestly that's really nice and encouraging to hear, so thank you for the perspective!! also your book club sounds so lovely, i hope you enjoy love theoretically!!💗

Katie knitting and doing a q&a vid is nothing better than my whole day!!!

[@Thrish_3]

That’s actually trueeee!!!!

[@_soggy]

i can sit throughout a whole katie-video without getting distracted or spaced-out

[@katieisreading]

thank you so much🥺

[@katherine-mb8vh]

omgg this was literally so lovely, after spending my whole day cramming for an exam, i picked up my sweater vest i'm currently crocheting and sat down to work it on while watching your new video AND then i saw u were knitting and that was just perfecttt vibes ✨ it felt like hanging out with a bestie and i just loved listening to you and getting to know you more! i would honestly love these types of videos regularly, maybe you could do your reading wrap ups in a similar style and just chat about the books you read recently like this, just super chill, as if you were telling a friend and knit or crochet while you talk, i think that would make for a super cozy video 💗

[@katieisreading]

aw yay, i'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it!! i definitely want to do more videos in this style because i also really liked doing this! (also i hope your exam went well💗)

[@haileyfussell]

Yess Ashley poston’s books are perfect for an ex hex hangover they have a similar vibe but with deeper emotions

[@katieisreading]

ooh now i am even more intrigued!!👀😮

[@ChickenLady-dq8rk]

Two series I'd love to hear your thoughts on are Renegades and The Lunar Chronicles both by Marrissa Meyer. Renegades is an absolute favorite of mine and they're both just fun, YA fantasy reads.

[@legendaryreader39]

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is one of my favorite books. You should definitely give it a chance some day. Thanks for letting me know about the kitties ❤ Fact: I've never seen the Gilmore Girls. Don't hurt me lol

[@katieisreading]

i definitely think i will check evelyn hugo out at some point, just not right now haha, but i'm so glad to hear you love it though!!💗

[@legendaryreader39]

@@katieisreading No rush. Read it whenever the mood strikes you. It's definitely an acquired taste. Something you have to be in the mood for.

[@onkookietime]

going to grad school because you aren’t really sure what else to do is so real LMAO

[@DaniArden]

I felt the same way as you about going into industry for engineering! I've found industry is actually so different than school though (in a good way)! If you don't like a lot of the math you're doing in class you might actually like industry better because it feels like a lot more project management than actual engineering principles, at least in my experience!

The woodlands and Forests here in the UK are so magical ✨ I often waltz through them when I go caravaning and find myself standing beneath grand Oaks and sitting among the fungi and ferns. It's ever so easy to imagine Lords, Lady's and Knights of Old traversing some of our Ancient Woodlands in times gone by 🌲💚 I've only recently discovered you here on KZbin and I adore your content. We have similar book tastes too which is great! Really enjoyed this q+a and getting to know you more, thank you ☺️

[@katherine-mb8vh]

also i'd love to see how you progress with the scarf 👀 the color is so cute!! i've been learning how to knit as well recently but it can be so frustrating sometimes lol

[@hyemiyah]

aww the pictures of your kittes! they've grown so much! i didn't know fritz was an old lady ;______; i hope she's still living her best life. oh, no. i was so excited when you mentioned you went to disneyland with your mum, but then the covid news ㅠㅠ glad you're fine now

[@katieisreading]

fritz is indeed an old lady, but she is definitely living her best life!!!

[@toshioferreyra5969]

OMG I learned crochet last year after watching a video of yours and now I started knitting less than 1 month ago too!!

[@paulamilena]

i just finished the dead romantics and i loooved it - so fun and the ghost vibes were everything !!

[@kamiya5222]

Def need more knitting videos, this video was like a tease for me as a crocheter also picking up knitting

[@MariasNook]

This video felt like cozying up on the couch with a friend and just chatting about anything and everything ☺️🧡

When people said you'll get fully into Malazan by book 5 they didn't mean that the series gets good in book 5, they meant that by book 5 you'll get used to the complexity of the series. Malazan is great from page 1.

[@Maroon58]

The Seven Year Slip is so good! Definitely a must read! Also, The Prison Healer trilogy is so good! Read it in one week! Maybe do a vlog for that series😊

[@amandadowney953]

It was nice getting to know you a little more. Thanks for sharing. Been also learning to crochet. It's very relaxing. What a nice way to start the week off!! 🖤🖤🖤

[@nishkasehgal]

I love k-pop too! My favorite groups are Nmixx, New Jeans, Itzy, and some songs by Ateez. :)

[@allie4435]

I think you would really enjoy Fredrick backman! He’s more lit/contemporary fiction, but his writing is so spectacular. I would recommend beartown for a more serious book & anxious people for a more lighthearted, funny vibe! Love the video as always Katie! 💕 P.S- I’ve also been reading Jane eyre for like a year 🫣 solidarity!

[@caitlyngrace8254]

i love love love gwen and art are not in love, it was one of my favourite reads of last year!!!

I'm an engineer and you'd be surprised how many companies are looking for them to fill really any role, technical or not! People just want employees that have critical thinking skills which you're learning lots of :)

Hi, fellow engineer! I graduated with my undergrad in 2022 and I totally get what you mean by not LOVING engineering but also not really liking anything else haahaa. I hope grad school is still treating you well! Industry is scary and I’m thinking about going back to school.

[@ShvetaMelpakkam]

I loved Check & Mate by Ali Hazelwood AND Gwen and Art are not in love..I think that. Might be because it’s a FF/MM book..that’s kind of how I even knew about it..but.. the end might throw you off a little. I didn’t hate it but it could’ve been better..

I have never read fantasy like Harry Potter even though I love the movies..i have read Secret Society of irregular witches so that fantasy sort of I guess. I don't know where to start fantasy wise and what does fantasy consist of? I usually stick to my cozy mystery series but I'm curious about fantasy.

I feel the same way about Gilmore Girls. I first watched it when I was in high school, but now in my 30s if I rewatch Lorelai's immaturity annoys the piss out of me. Maybe I'm just not in the target audience anymore. Problems of getting old, I guess! 😝
