Happy birthday Ems! Stay blessed :)

[@bookcatcher4561]

Happy birthday!🎉❤

[@jessicamota8031]

The first book of the list is a Brandon Sanderson book I'm truly shocked

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I know nobody saw that one coming...

[@Intothesunset89]

Happy Birthday !!!! I'm currently reading Vicious and yes it lives up to the hype, I'll probably pick up vengeful straight after. as someone who is so into the Mandela Effect and collective memory, Recursion sounds right up my alley.

[@PetrikLeo]

Happy birthday, Emily! I wish you all the best in life, healthy, beauty, career and of course, books! Thank you for being such an amazing booktuber, reader, and reviewer. Hands down the best booktuber and I look forward to more of your videos and reviews! (I can't believe I've only read one book (Grey Sister) from your list here... Yes I haven't read Skyward dear god what is wrong with me)

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Thank you!! You NEED to get to it! I love your recommendations too and need to get to them asap!

[@PetrikLeo]

@@BookswithEmilyFox I will! Most likely near the release date of Starsight so I can binge them back to back! :) and as always, thank you for loving my recommendations!

[@Brendawwg86]

I loved Dark Matter so I can't wait for Recursion to come out in the States in June!!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I can't wait to be able to talk about it and hear other people's opinion!

[@r4tbrat]

My favourites, roughly in order: 1. A Clockwork Orange 2. Life Is So Good by George Dawson and Richard Glaubman 3. Death note: Black edition vol 1 4. Of Mice and Men 5. Becky by Darren Galsworthy

[@BasicallyBrittx]

Ah man, now I want to read Nevernight and Skyward SO BAD!!! Nevernight has been on my tbr for SO freaking long haha You've already read so many books! Can't wait to future videos about favourites

[@CatLady555]

Skyward is SOOOO good! The ending was amazing

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

What are the best books you've read so far in 2019? :D

[@ham5097]

I've read the first three books in the Mistborn world for the first time (also partly because of you) and they are by far my most favourite ones. It's just so good, why haven't I read them earlier? I don't know. But I love Brandon Sanderson from now on.

[@jessicamota8031]

Scythe! It completely hooked me and make me think a lot about mortality and how we - some at least - hope for immortality but how meaningless life can become when death is out of the equation. Loved it a lot.

[@Rich-jv2mx]

Holy Sister, One Word Kill, The Ruin Of Kings, Daisy Jones And The Six and Master Of Sorrows are my favs of the year so far.

[@elianeg9125]

La reine Margot- Alexander Dumas, Thé humans by Matt Haig

[@feyzan5777]

Scythe. Sadie. Vengeful. Foundryside/Lies of Locke lamora. Righteous Mind.

[@teresadunivent8571]

I have a student, 8th grade, read Skyward. He is hooked; read the other YA series Steelheart, he and wants me to bring more. Love it! Also, I am on Grey Sister right now; I love this series! I can’t wait to read the new Blake Crouch. I read his books you recommend and love them.

[@feyzan5777]

My favs so far. 1. Sadie 2. Vengeful 3. Righteous Mind. 4. Scythe. 5. foundryide/Lies of Locke lamora.

[@dishadharmraj6986]

Sadie is by who?

[@feyzan5777]

@@dishadharmraj6986 by Courtney summers

[@eveyv]

I started reading Sadie fearing I wouldn't like it (I tend to dislike hyped books), but daaang... It was good and so heart-wrenching! And Vengeful was really good, too. Victoria is coming to Argentina soon and I'm going to get one of my books (probably Vicious) signed, so I'm really excited :D

[@feyzan5777]

@@eveyv Wow! You're so lucky.

[@abigase135]

Your comment made me so happy, so many favorite especially Locke lamora

[@alinastarodubova1181]

My fav book these past few months was Memoirs of a geisha. I LOVED IT SM!!! The writing is incredible, the MC is supposed to be talking to you and it really feels like that. It wasn't heavy with information but I also feel like I have learned a lot about geishas and what it's like being one. The story is actually fiction, but it's all based on real life experiences since the author interviewed a lot of geisha. This doesn't read like a memoir at all. I'm usually a fantasy/sci-fi girl like you, but this was just incredible. It deserves all the hype!!

[@userksdhskdh]

Ahh i love your best books lists always!!! I've only read skyward so far and i absolutely loved it! Your tastes are close to mine so i always enjoy reading your reccomendations! Thank you for all these recs! I hope you have a lovely day!! Happy birthday!!! I hope it's a wonderful one!🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

[@emmavanweert1013]

Happy (belated) birthday!! Btw Nevernight is a triology, Jay Kristoff did post something weird with a book 4 fond, but it's kinda like a book in a book so he clarified and it's just a triology. Also, I think I enjoyed book 2 even more than book 1 so... really pick it up asap! XD

[@emalemon6427]

I LOVED the Villains series! I read them back to back, they're both 5 stars for me and I think I prefer Vicious but not by much. I know for a fact that whatever I read this year is going to be shadowed by those books. Have you read the Winternight trilogy? Reading it at the moment and it's great, not perfect but really well written! Happy birthday by the way! Hope you have a great day!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I tried reading the first one but couldn't get into it...

[@Nina-ji7pm]

My faves so far: 1. Saga series 2. The Poppy War 3. The Broken Earth Trilogy 4. The Winternight Trilogy 5. The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo Honorable mentions: Daisy Jones & The Six, Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, Chemistry. P.S. I've LOVED Nevernight and Skyward. I'm so happy you loved them as well, but when it comes to Vengeful, I actually DNF-ed it oops. However, I absolutely adored Vicious. P.P.S. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

[@Jessica-bt6rw]

My day is always a lot better when I can sit down and you talk about ur favorite books.

[@marcelalaurito]

Happy Birthday Emily! Lots of good wishes from Brazil! Hope you have a great day!

[@JennV-B]

Happy birthday Em!!! 💗💗💗

[@celina6259]

I loved skyward, I can’t wait for the next ones. 😍

[@PrincessPts]

So ready for Recursion to come out!! I’ve read Dark Matter and I am currently on the 2nd book in the Wayward Pines trilogy. Happy to hear this new is good as well!

[@Kay-nb2fe]

Happy birthday! May your year bring lots of 5 star books!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Thank you!!

[@mossonthenorthside]

Happy Birthday! I'm new to your channel but you're super awesome and great at explaining books!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

That's the best compliment because I always feel like I struggle to explain myself in English lol

[@Allenro711]

Happy Birthday! :D I agree 100% with the first 2. Really need to get back to Mark Lawrence's books. I have been on the fence about Schwab's books, so I guess I'll be checking those out now, and I had no idea about Blake Crouch, excited to try out a new author!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Oh you're in for a wild ride! If you don't mind his writing style, you won't be able to put his books down - start with Dark Matter!

[@cata4665]

Happy birthday!! Hope you enjoy it. Also did you read three dark crowns by kendare blake. I just got into it and it might be something up your alley. Also I loved dark matter. I've been lacking in my reading goal for this yr but I look forward to your recommendations. Also do you mostly buy your books or get them from the library? I feel like I dont have enough time to sit and read. So where do you read the most? Lol sorry for being all over the place but I did also loved the seven death of Evelyn hardcastle and 7 husband of Evelyn hugo. Loved those. Lol

[@eveyv]

Another Blake Crouch book? Welp, sign me up. I also really liked Vengeful, and have the rest of the books you mentioned on my TBR :D Happy birthday! Here's to hope you'll have more great reads this year.

[@ashtoneva4926]

I think V. E. Schwab has said on Twitter that there will be a Villans #3 just not anytime soon. But both are on my favorite books of the yeaf so far. No thanks to my college semester, I havent had that much time to read, which sucks. But happy birthday, lovely. Hope your day is amazing as you are!

[@Rich-jv2mx]

Omg Recursion is one of my most anticipated books! I’m so so glad you loved it and now I can’t wait to get my copy.

[@MysticsLibrary]

Ooh, I just recently purchased Nevernight. Glad to hear you liked it! I can't wait to start it!

[@hayleymarie630]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Hope you have an incredible day! 💕 Also I need to read every single one of these.

[@IonaReads]

It was my birthday yesterday. April is the best month! Happy birthday Emily :)

[@MissHepburnxo]

You’ve got me really excited about Recursion!

[@Amy1437]

Happy birthday!!! I'm currently reading & loving Nevernight, just went & pre ordered Recursion & the other 3 are sitting on my shelf waiting to be read 😊. I hope you have a great birthday! ❤️

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

You'll have an amazing reading year with all of them!! ❤️

[@wickedfair]

So happy I found your page because I love SciFi and you are so right, hardly anyone is talking about it on BookTube! P.S. The makeup channel is great too. 💄😊

[@luisenriquedominguez4997]

OMG!!! The Skyward cover is awesome!!!!

[@starry_worlds]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EMILY!!! Also without you, I would have never read Nevernight. Thank you so much. Even though I've got 100 pages to go, I already know it's gonna be a favourite book of the year.

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Wait till you're done... :P

[@starry_worlds]

@@BookswithEmilyFox I like finished reading it early hours this morning. I'm still an emotional wreck but I loved it so much 😭😭

[@Thatdumbgremlin]

I LOVED the footnotes in Nevernight. Gives it a cool "Beowulf" kind of feel.

[@omalia489]

Brandon Sanderson? For Emily's favourites list? Groundbreaking. *that Miranda Pristley gif*

[@jessthomas7210]

My fave reads so far this year: 1. Dark Matter by Blake Crouch 2. Pieces of Her by Karin Slaughter 3. The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides 4. Bird Box by Josh Malerman

[@amn384]

Skyward was one of my best reads this year, too! I'm in the middle of Nevernight right now and plan to start Red Sister so I can read the trilogy. 💕 Otherwise, I kind of took a detour from fantasy and other favorites have been Beartown, Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine, and The Unhoneymooners. I wouldn't necessarily recommend them to you, though, as I have a feeling they're not your jam. 😅 But I found them each really touching and they DESTROYED me.

[@ericarobbin]

Happy Birthday! I have the Brian Sanderson on my TBR, I'm looking forward to it I have never read anything by him.

[@toma5312]

Happy birthday Emily!

[@Zoe-zn2mb]

Happy Birthday! 🎈🎉 I really need to read Nevernight next month! I have been wanting to read this for so long now!

[@annastanczyk4162]

My favorites so far: Daisy Jones & The Six (audio!!!), Nevernight and Gemina. I'm definitely looking forward to reading The Red Sister and Skyward.

[@jennawar13]

All of these are on my to-read list! Your recommendations are the best!

[@heth300]

I love the book cover for your copy of 'Skyward'.

[@clairemeehan4141]

Having read Skyward, Nevernight and Grey Sister (and Bound) I totally agree with you about how brilliant they are. From my reading so far this year I have loved Skyward (of course), The Hod King, Kings of the Wyld and Bloody Rose, The Heroes, and Holy Sister. I also really enjoyed The 7 and a half Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle. By the way - I feel confident you will enjoy Godsgrave - I wondered how I would feel about seeing Mia out of the school setting, but shouldn't have worried. The rabbit hole deepens!

[@clairemeehan4141]

Plus I plan to pick up V E Schwabs Vicious and Vengeful as you recommend them so highly.

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I really want to read Kings of the Wyld!! I'm glad to hear that because I love school settings and was scared it wouldn't stay good lol

[@betheltorres2550]

Happy birthday! And thanks for these recommendations. You've brought me back from the book slump. 😊

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Slumps are the worst! Glad you're back to reading :)

[@ManiacalReader]

I hope to read more by Brandon Sanderson this year. Nevernight and Vicious are on my T.B.R. Hopefully, I enjoy Vengeful as well. I've heard Dark Matter is really good, so hopefully I like Recursion by him too. Great video!

[@ham5097]

I just came home and Emily uploaded new video. IT WAS MEANT TO BE THIS WAY.

[@kimkosyjana9511]

That UK Skyward cover tho 😍 i dont hate the US cover, but UK is so much cooler! I NEED Recursion. I read Dark Matter this year and LOVED it. Lastly, i have to read Nevernight! I have had it on my shelf for like a year now. I might marathon read the series when Dark Dawn comes out!

I still need to get to all of these aaaaah (and happy birthday omg!!)

Happy birthday!!🎉

Want/need them all!

[@AKookieForYou]

I'm shooketh, who knew you liked Brandon Sanderson? XD Actually, your love of his books really makes me want to try one, the length of most of them are just pretty intimidating lolol

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

They're so good! I recommend starting with a standalone! If you love YA then Skyward is perfect, otherwise Elantris or Warbreaker were both amazing Adult Fantasy!

[@AKookieForYou]

@@BookswithEmilyFox I tend to read a lot of YA usually, and your review of Skyward made it sound super interesting, so I think that'll be my best bet ^^

[@ItsRoseForYou]

Recursion sounds really interesting! But since it's not officially out yet, my library will probably take a while before getting it... They do have Dark Matter though. Are they equally good?

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

You'll either love it or hate it, I loved it! It's very fast paced, the concept was fascinating. People issues are usually the writing (it feels like a movie), the characters/dialogues are is weakness but I think it's worth a shot and often recommend it as a "getting out of your reading slump". You can't put it down!

[@scrollsofdragons362]

The Ruin of Kings is currently at number one. Just a bit Twisted, a romance then Jack of Hearts, a contemporary, Extinction Trials: Rebel, a fantasy and The Gilded Wolves.
