BookOutlet Book Unboxing + Haul!

[@alainareads4135]

A long way gone is so tragically beautiful... it was a wonderful read! I hope you enjoy it!

[@jend.5999]

The Age of Miracles is such a BEAUTIFUL book! I highly highly highly recommend the audio book. The narrator's voice adds to the atmosphere of the book and is so melancholy and beautiful. :)

[@allymreads9661]

A Long Way Gone and Burial Rites! YES. I hope you love them!

[@bookaholicbanter]

Seriously? Your book haul just made me want to go on to Book Outlet and order just about everything you hauled. My goodreads to read list just grew a little more. Nice haul! ❤

[@scarredxangel]

If you like memoirs I recommend Beautiful by Katie Piper. It's about a sweet, but very vain girl who relied on her looks for everything really, even her job needed her looks. She went on to get a boyfriend who turned dangerous and he had acid thrown in her face. It chronicles how she dealt with it and the last scars, physical and mental. How she got on with her life after losing her career as a model and how she pulled her self out of a dark place. It's heartbreaking and heart warming at the same time. It's one if my favourite memoirs. She has a second one out now about what she's doing now.

[@splitreads]

I started Burial Rites but then I got distracted and didn't get back to it! I need to go read it... I hope you enjoy your new books!!!

[@yellowshimmer9198]

A Long Way Home is a book I had to read for school and it's so good!! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

[@michaelmessina3766]

You would love The Land of Stories book series by Chris Colfer. It's a fantastic middle grade.

[@aurorastoprose]

I finished Burial Rites in January and I am still thinking about it. Hannah Kent is such an amazing writer and I cannot wait to hear what you think of the book.

[@TeaLeavesAndBookBindings]

I love The Age of Miracles! It was one of my favorite books of 2013 or whatever year I read it.

[@ladyofstayne]

I read the age of miracles. I loved it!! I picked it up for a couple of bucks. I hope you enjoy it!!!

[@cheeruppirate]

I loved The Age of Miracles! I don't see enough people talk about it but it gets you thinking. Excited to see what you think when you read it.

[@retiredbooknerd]

I swear, and I'm not EVEN kidding, that I watch you for comedy relief at the end of the day! You just make me laugh... Your sense of humor is SOOOOO much like my girls' and it makes you so relatable to me! Feel better soon! Enjoy your books! :-)

[@amymorales7599]

if your into memoirs I highly recommend the Glass Castle!!!

[@aurorasunderland309]

we read A Long Way Gone in class and it was very real and raw and I loved it hope you like it!

[@AnnaS-ct2ni]

I LOVE The Age of Miracles. Such a beautiful and haunting read.

[@gabriellamorales1597]

I believe the Pacific Crest Trail stretches from Mexico to Canada.

[@MsCaseydilla]

Wild was my favorite book of last year. I hope you really love it.

[@tabithaspear1097]

"The Age of Miracles" is one of my top ten favorite books of ALL TIME. I hope you love it!

[@TobiasTheHawk]

I wanted that same sketchbook for calligraphy! But I didn't because of the perforated pages. It was a crushing moment

[@bookishfoureyes3018]

I hope you like Burial Rites and A House in the Sky, those are pretty unique books. I've also read How to Build a Girl and I wasn't a fan because it didn't really seem to go anywhere.

[@WhittyNovels]

+Bookish Four Eyes I hope I like them too! I'm trying to branch out this year :)

[@ThePrincessOfReading]

I hope you and your roommate feel better soon! I think I need the book Adulting too.

[@yj6118]

I have yet to purchase books on Book Outlet but you made me excited to do that now!

[@francesatkinson4252]

If you haven't already read it, you might like a memoir by artist and journalist Molly Crabeapple (Drawing Blood).

[@oliviamarie2262]

A long way gone was an amazing book! It was heartbreaking but also very interesting and educational, and I'm extremely glad I read it!

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

I recently just got Burial Rites as well!!! Way too excited to read it!

[@jaievi76]

Great haul!! Hope you feel better soon!!

[@ritajlwang]

i hope you enjoy egghead! my boyfriend loves bo burnham and we actually saw him live and it was such an experience.

[@mom2triplets04]

Burial Rites I read last year. Really enjoyed it.

[@khadijahs5642]

Burial rites was great, I think you will love it.

[@WhittyNovels]

+Khadijah S Great to hear :D

[@CooleenBooks]

Whitney, my number 1 favourite book last year was 'It's what I do' by Lynsey Addario❤️ it's her memoir, and she's a photojournalist. Talks about her life and her experiences with war

[@WhittyNovels]

+Cooleen Books it looks gorgeous just from the cover!

[@Neonprettykitty]

I'm adding a lot of these to my goodreads To-Read list now :) Really enjoying your channel for recommendations

[@Peta1970]

Burial Rites is fantastic! You will love it :)

[@AlenaCantFly]

I love Bo! Some of his poems hit really close to home and some are just really silly

[@danielledalton4394]

A long way gone is SO good! Read immediately!

[@charlottesreadsthings211]

I read The Age Of Miracles about two years ago over summer (i think) and it's very slow but really good and got me thinking a lot.

[@cleobanks6157]

I read 'The Age of Miracle' and it was truly fantastic and different from everything I've read!

[@theGillybean_Chronicle]

I also snagged HOW TO BUILD A GIRL. Hoping it's relatable as I was about the same age as the protagonist in the 90's. I will also be another person who tells you BURIAL RITES is amazing. Yeah. It's amazing. I'm currently reading THE AGE OF MIRACLES. It's a great YA to adult transition book but focuses more on a girl's adolescent experiences as she comes to terms with the changes in the world. I'm enjoying it so far. Great haul! Gotta love BookOutlet. They just make everything better I say.

[@WhittyNovels]

+LizaadBooks Thank you :D

[@bionicbookworm3928]

The age of miracles was really great. It was so interesting reading how people handled this strange chaotic situation. I have yet to finish a house in the sky though

[@3dotmatrix]

I really enjoyed Burial Rites, left me feeling sad afterwards but deffo worth a reading!

[@emmamadsen3111]

If you haven't tried these series here they are: The Neptune project and the Neptune Challenge by Polly Holyoke The second series Is called the Seven Wonders by Peter Lerangis. they are seriously SO GOOD.

[@lovechrissycosmetic]

I literally just received I am Malala in the mail!!! So excited to read it :)

[@carly1628]

Loved this haul! So many news books that will help me diversify my reading :) Headscarves and Hymens by Mona Eltahawy sounds so enticing. As soon as you read out the title I checked my library and bless, they have it!!! Would you ever consider making a poetry/poem recommendation? I've been looking to branch into poetry but am unsure of where to begin! xo

[@LilyEleanorReads]

I think I've already said this on a video of yours but Wild is SO good! I hope you like it, I really loved it. I really want to pick up some memoirs now! And I'm interested in your thoughts on the Shell Collector, it's been on my wishlist for a while.

[@Lex12245]

The Adulting book is actually really good and witty, I'm in the process of reading it now.

[@ReadingMissFroggy]

Best cure for everything: new books. Hope you feel better soon! :)

[@WhittyNovels]

+ReadingMissFroggy Absolutely! thank you c:

[@jennamcgraw6548]

Looks like I have some new books to check out!

[@TheBookishGinger]

This video made me go onto Book Outlet and now I have a $50 order in my cart D:

[@lizeast4854]

Andie Mitchell has a Ted Talk that she does! It was pretty awesome... Maybe I will get the book?! Please do a review!

[@britneyfan45]

Wild is so good I read it last year good luck

[@cheeruppirate]

And then you picked up A Long Way Gone, also very good! Very brutal. I read it for my freshman year in college and then we got to hear him speak. Be prepared for a very real telling of his experiences as a boy soldier.

[@bookwarmlady5367]

I recommend silver boat by luanne rice. it a heart warming book

[@peteypiecrunchyduck]

The Age of Miracles was really, really good. Very thought provoking and stays with you, but if I remember correctly the pacing does slow down with the turning of the earth. Just stick with it.

[@plushieangela]

Flip the dust jacket over and tape it from the back, for the black cover hardcover you ripped

[@Brieluvsyew]

A long way gone was a book i read thoroughly through freshman english. Its a very graphic & very sad book & it's actually a very interesting story. You dont really realize these things are happening in the world.

[@madswanqueen]

If you're interested in short stories, you should check out A Portable Shelter, The Last Animal, By Light We Knew Our Names or How to Breathe Underwater :)

[@alliyahwakefield69]

I love Bo too!!

[@bookishlybouv]

BO BURNHAM IS BAE. Seriously though, his poetry is great, and if you ever get the chance to see him live, jump on it! He's an amazing performer, and totally has my heart.

[@bebefry-younge345]

How to build a girl is basically a fiction based very heavily on her childhood/teen years. It's a good book if you haven't read "How to be a woman" or watched her tv show 'Raised by wolves'. I wanted more fiction to it and not just "I was born in the north and had a weird xhildhoo" again and again

[@sandramuoio6756]

Here's a list of some of the "adult" books that I really enjoyed.- all mixed genres. - if you were looking for more adult titles. The witches The book of speculation Gutenberg's apprentice The miniaturist The fortune hunter Blue mind Leonardo: a biographical novel Let's explore diabetes with owls Farmacology Capital in the 21st century Missing microbes A thinking woman's guide to real magic

[@ashleyo89]

"I committed some sins" haha 😂 I'm new to discovering the world of booktubers and I am becoming hooked! I stumbled across you and am so glad I did! :)

[@WhittyNovels]

+Ashley Overholts Thank you for watching :D and welcome to booktube!!

[@brittbryan8155]

I saw what. live a few years ago. He's hilarious!!

[@DigitalAndVellum]

THANK YOU for having more than just YA!!!

[@CherrieWalker]

I hope you get well soon :)

[@WhittyNovels]

+Cherrie Walker Thank you! I'm definitely better now c:

[@kaitieskates]

Oh Book Outlet....so easy to find so many books but you don't feel so bad when it's 7 books with shipping for $40. Also, I gave Adulting to some friends of mine after they announced they were having their first child. :D Figured it might be helpful to be an adult before giving birth. I'm clearly a very considerate friend.

[@Sims3Timeout]

You should read the elemental assassin series. It's amazing.

[@WhittyNovels]

+marsalene West who's that by?

[@Sims3Timeout]

Jennifer Estep. You should give it a try. Its awesome!

[@scottweatherby6896]

I don't know if you've read A Long Way Gone, but it'll gut you, I guarantee it. It's the book that got me into memoirs.

[@kev7441]

ugh your making me want to do journaling 💕

[@nicnovel8907]

start! it's so much fun and honestly a great excuse to throw on some music and get creative! even if it's just you writing daily things you can make it fun :)

[@kev7441]

+niicolereads okay ! thanks for motivation me :)

[@whatskappening]

yessss age of miracles is so creepy and realistic... i liked it!

[@stefansbooks3986]

Burial Rites omg😭😭 do it nowww😭👍🏻👏🏻

[@WhittyNovels]

+Stefan's Books are those crying emojis I see????

[@stefansbooks3986]

Yes but this isn't a novel anyone cries at. I used those becuase this book was soooo good. BUT, I'll tell you what I tell everybody. The 1/3 is not really good, the 2/3 is ok to good and the 3/3 is SOOOOO GOOD! It's obsessing and this is confirmed 'cause I suggested this to a friend and she had the same reactions I had:))

[@nicnovel8907]

I'm always tempted to buy journals online but I'm so picky about the paper that I write on that I just can't commit!! /.\

[@maryfrances93]

Oh my goodness. You are perfect. I am in the same boat as you: growing out of ya. I love memoirs! I'm going to recommend a couple memoirs you will love! The Aqua Net Diaries by Jennifer Niven A Piece of Cake by Cupcake Brown Running with Scissors by August Burroughs Girl, you want more memoir recommendations, let me know :)

[@blhtjh]

"A House in The Sky" was an amazing story but it annoyed me for several different reasons... BUT "A long way gone" by Ishmael is AMAZING!! One of my favs of all time and I've been meaning to read his newest book which is a fiction novel. Great haul :)

[@WhittyNovels]

+Brianna H I hope when I review it we can talk about it then! I'm curious to see how it'll sit with me.

[@blhtjh]

Yes for sure! Excited to hear how you feel about it

[@literarydiversions]

The books are great and all but your nose blowing is adorable. Check out Running with Scissors - think you'd like that one. :)

[@JulEnglefaris]

Couldn't get over the fact that they starve a cat in that book.

[@JustEssayIt]

"He's six five..." Tall girl approach to men: hight first, everything else is secondary.

[@WhittyNovels]

+marlinelina i thought that googling the height of an actor before anything else was normal. guess not. (but at least if there's ever any trivia about the height of commonly admired male actors, I got those)

[@mothman2]

+marlinelina Judging men on how tall they are is as dumb as men judging women on how big their breasts are.

[@JustEssayIt]

mothman2 In case you couldn't tell, my comment was just a little bit sarcastic. I'd also be lying if I didn't admit that I have a preference for tall men, since I am really tall myself and I prefer someone who's taller than me. We all have personal preferences when it comes to appearance, but I would never make appearance the sole criterium I judge someone by.

[@WhittyNovels]

mothman2 who said we were judging

[@mothman2]

By stating height comes first you are judging a man for his suitability to possibly date. So say a guy is 5 ft 5, he is very probably going to be judged not tall enough and discarded on this alone. I like women of all shapes and sizes, I simply can't get my head around physical preferences for dating, baffles me.

[@axlrackley3416]

i Have a lot of books i want to read but my eyesights messed up right now

[@JulEnglefaris]

I feel like Book Outlets website is hard to navigate and also their shipping takes forever.

[@AniaMakeupMore]

A long way gone is an amazing book =)

[@jend.5999]

Caitlin Moran wrote a non fiction book about feminism. I highly recommend it!! Wild is one of my favorite books from 2015, it's amazing! It's great on audio book. If you are interested in more short stories, I highly recommend MercysBookishMusings and Jen Campbell. They review a ton of them! Fantastic book haul!!! Can't wait to see your thoughts on these books! :)

[@intentionallyinpired]

Mirada is the strangest character Eva lol ♡♡♡

[@allison8174]

I read House in the Sky and it is such a depressing story!

[@maradryer5658]

HOW TO BUILD A GIRL AND BURIAL RITES ARE BOTH A+

[@cheys_rebrand]

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!! So funny! Feel better :)

[@thequeenofbooks24]

Hey please please please can I have that large print copy of I am Malala because I am Partially Sighted and the UK edition (where I'm from, you may know me from that convo we had on Instagram) has too small print for me to read ... :/

[@sammmmmmmjean]

A Long Way Gone is amazing, I had to read it in high school and it's a very powerful book! Hope you enjoy it! Also, random recommendation pertaining to weight loss..Hungry by Allen Zadoff is hilarious and heartfelt and wonderful=]

[@WhittyNovels]

+Sam Sullivan Thank you!!

[@kmichael9452]

"hike the something Oceanic something trail"..... wow never heard of it DANG THESE SCHOOLS COME ON PLZ TEACH ME WHERE THIS SO POPULAR TRAIL IS AT!!! I was honestly thinking of getting " how to build a girl" because i bought "we should all be feminists" because of you AND I LOVED IT plus i wanna read more feminism books soo I MUST BUY HOW TO BUILD A GIRL SOON

[@aishafehr1870]

Why would you be uncomfortable in reading "It was me all along"? You are beautiful! I can't believe you said that! Seriously!

[@thejenmath]

Awe, Adulting. I still want that book.

[@SaideeLee]

I seriously thought you were emotional or going to cry in the begining, lol.

[@fireflowersfruit]

I have Age of Miracles! Wanna buddy read it?

[@HaddiesHaven]

You remind me of one of my sisters ♥ Sorry, had to finally say it. But you do remind me of her. :D

[@WhittyNovels]

+Haddie'sHaven For some reason, I ALWAYS get the "you remind me of ___" comment lol

[@HaddiesHaven]

WhittyNovels LOL really? That must be a good thing!
