I can’t help but smile when you talk about Ian’s love for Stephen King. The loml passed away in April, he is the one that got me into reading. He read almost every Stephen King book while he was in prison. The first time we went to B&N together we both picked out a Stephen King book and would read them aloud to each other 💙

Also, I'm not sure if you've heard of or read anything by Kristin Hannah, but I think you would really like her stuff. She writes a lot of historical fiction like Julie Berry, who you said you really like, so I figured I'd mention her. Loving watching your videos, by the way!! :D

Another great video sweet girl!! Such self control!! I'm impressed! I do have a question...I'm an East coast girl and it has always been said that the largest book store in the world is at Union Station New York City. At least according to the Guiness Book of World Records, it is. I guess there are lots of different ways to determine the "largest" book store (square footage, amount of shelf space, number of books, number of floors, number of genres, etc). Either way it looks like all you book cuties had a fabulous time! I love when booktubers get together like that! There is a book tuber that lives right there in Portland...her name is Morgan L8ng and she has a beautiful channel. But you're still one of my very favorites! You're fabulous! Thank you for another great video!!
