[@b00kutopia4]

[@hadisaafzaly9029]

randomgal xxx if you can manage reading why people get mad oh I really don't understand

[@Shaegeeksout]

Don't feel bad for re-reading a favorite! #youdoyou

[@oliviarathsack]

Omg the Hate You Give is honestly the best book I’ve read in 2017! It was so eye opening, and it really gave you a different perspective on everyday life. I hope you enjoy it!!

[@mandareads2665]

This LIP COLOR! I am so digging the middle part, too.

[@GabyGabsBooks16]

I’ve never seen Austenland, but I’m so glad you mentioned it because it sounds great👍🏻 I totally get what you mean about saving books you think you’re going to love, I do it too🙊

[@Frumious]

Still so many books from my 2017 TBR pile that I haven’t read yet! They’re on my list though so we’ll see how many I can get through

[@summerhammond9946]

Living for that outtro! Love you so much Zoë and your hoodie is so fabulous 🖤💜💙💚

[@analisesmee7655]

I just wanted to take the time to tell you that you are so beautiful, Zoe! You are so sweet and never cease to put a smile on my face! Whenever I’m down I just watch your videos and I’m almost immediately smiling. You’re personality makes me so happy and I just wanted you to know that :)

[@annaelise5505]

I’ve been binge watching booktube for a while. Then I saw this pop up.... insto clicking!

[@Lani1989]

Nevermoor is the next book I'm picking up in January. I'm really looking forward to reading it 😊 I love your hoodie!!! I just have two more books to try and finish. The illustrated version of Chamber of Secrets and Equal Rites by Terry Pratchett

[@nikoletta551]

YAY FOR ZOE

[@Rainbowjellybean2003]

Nik I

[@Tess623]

I literally whispered "yes!" when you said you were re-reading Pride and Prejudice! I always love hearing you talk about Jane Austen and I just recently finished re-reading Pride and Prejudice myself! :)

[@Tess623]

And did I mention how much I love your background in this video?! So pleasant, clean, and pretty.....

[@linasburrow]

your videos always cheer me up so much 😄

[@janeli9568]

You are my motivation to read more books!

[@deniz1506]

ZOOOOE,MY GOSHHH,I LOVE YAAA You make me so happy when you upload a new perfect video like this.💕💕 Merry Christmas.😂😂💋🎄

[@zozodawn6084]

Omg your hoodie is so cool I NEED IT

[@annajones8789]

zozo dawn UR PROFILE POC FLASHBACKS TO THE RAB ERA |-/

[@beccaeddows6169]

Hey Zoe! Have you ever thought about doing a hair routine? I have very similar hair to yours and love to hear how other people tame their curls too! Much love, Becca

[@martynas.6434]

LOVE YOU SO MUCH ZOE !!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@shannonpinizzotto3617]

OMG ZOE YOUR HOODIE IS SO CUTE 💕💕

[@katiadjaoued3709]

Great video you should definitely make this a regular thing its easy to relate for me I kinda have the same pattern in books And you should do a video on your makeup collection Your makeup always looks so nice

[@lilith_618]

I need that hoodie and I need it now!!!

[@savannahrose4836]

I literally just love listening to you talk 😁

[@tibahs.3956]

Hi Zoe , I like your videos so much 😍 . Your are the one who motivates me to read alot of English modern novels . I followed you from Iraq . Each day open youtube to check your recent videos . You're so joyful 😊

[@dulcemata5360]

Omg I save books too, I am currently saving Salt to the Sea because I know I am entirely going to love it!!!

[@novel-teadee3410]

Oh goodness.. my tbr just got heavier.. thanx Zoe 😉 I really really reaaally need to finish my friend's 2nd book "The Secret to Atheness: The Dragon Queen" by S.M.Gilson When I finally had time to read, I picked it up... 😌 and then all my library ebooks came in. Hopefully I can get them done and get back to Atheness before 2017! I also would like to keep my tradition of reading P&P in December. Happy Reading!

[@thatssochelseaa]

My reading goal for 2017 was 50 books, too! but I've only read 28 so far. I love that your goal is actually REASONABLE. Another booktuber i watch reads like 28 a month! I just like that yours is more attainable and realistic.

[@HollyHeartsBooks]

Zoe, can I borrow your Time Turner so I can fit in a few more books this year? I’ll give it back, pinkie promise! ;)

[@elisafernandezleon]

Sounds like you need another readathon!?!? Just saying... The one book I must read before 2018 is Laura Lippman's Hush Hush. But I am doing a couple of readathons at the moment, so I am reading at least another 9 (very short) books before the end of the year.

[@lyndsayreads]

Oooh I wanna read Crazy Rich Asians so bad! I need to finish My True Love Gave to Me but it’s taking me a little while cause I’m not totally loving it. Good luck with all your end of the year reading, Zoe!

[@nelliandbooks]

My goal is to read 30 books this year. Book and a half way from that goal!

[@charlotl]

I also read multiple books at once! Several other bookworm friends think I'm very strange for doing this but like you, my reading is dependent on mood

[@nickyyy777]

hi reminder my whole heart loves you

[@CharlotteAndBooks]

I'm very much a mood-reader myself. But I'm so determined to get through a set of books before the year's over! And they're more wintery so I know that if I don't read them now, I'm not very likely to read them until next year at best...

[@sexymonster7667]

I WANT THAT CAPTAIN AMERICA JACKET THING

[@kristalynn7877]

The hate you give is definitely up there on my TBR, can’t wait to read it! Please when you finish it do a review on it 🙂

[@mireillek2841]

Oh my gosh!!!! I love that hoodie! Go Cap! Also I have to finish Court of Wings and Ruin!! :)

[@hannahmurphy529]

I love this kind of video omg

[@bmontejano7596]

Oohh looking awesome!! I just have ONE book left that I want to read before 2018 and that's The Blood of Olympus by Rick Riordan! I have about 300 pages to go but I'm a slow reader. So I hope I can make it. Good luck with your books!!

[@Hannahlizmay88]

I love Jane Austin ‘s novels !!😍😍😍 I definitely reread Pride and prejudice that all the time!!!📖🦅💙📚💛

[@jamesnemec7699]

I’m reading clockwork princess at the moment and the emotions are killing me 😫 love you’re vids keep it up and I’m wanting to do a 24h read-a-thon soon

[@grungegirl1604]

I love that cover of Pride & Predijuce!!!!

[@beatricetoscano2247]

I love the HOODIE!!! Team Cap forever

[@audforest3013]

Omg! Gotta finish this savage song!😭

[@AndreaSanchez-mb3lp]

I have definitely been living under a rock .... HOW had I not heard of Austenland before? I'm going to see it immediately

[@bryana8844]

Okay, when are you dropping that hair routine?? Every curly girl wants to know😂

[@annasekhon8108]

Your hair is like so purely angelic it's Amazing (I wish I had curly hair)

[@virginiarangel6306]

You go girl you could do it ...

[@alexaalexa3623]

you just reminded me how many books i need to finish 😅

[@alexaalexa3623]

i definitely need to finish a court of mist and fury. got halfway through the book and completely forgot to finish it once midterms started!

[@tesslydon6925]

I have been listening to Lord of Shadows on and off for the past month at school and currently have 3 hours left. I must finish before the end of the year!

[@KimCarlton23]

I'm also currently reading four books and I want to finish them all before the end of the year, which I don't think is going to happen 😂 p.s. your hoodie is INCREDIBLE!!!

[@proudbooklion2094]

I don't want to read more because I've filmed my favorites of this year already xD Good luck on your goals!

[@AsdfAsdf-mi6ks]

I really am glad that you're reading Crazy Rich Asians because I was thinking of reading it.

[@PandaCake07]

This is very random, but your nails always look so perfect!

[@canadianjules]

Honestly Zoe PLEASE save The Hate U Give for as long as you can because I read the whole thing in four hours in one sitting and I regretted it as soon as it was over because I could not stop thinking about it for days

[@musicandloveismylive]

Nevermoor looks really good!!!

[@marlinrodriguez7975]

You should make a video on books that you recommend for the year 2017!! Would totally love and watch💖!

[@IlFilodiArianna_vlog]

You definitely have to finish The Hate U Give, it's pretty good! I need to finish Gemina before the end of the year :)

[@Biokamikaetzchen]

I would like to finish 'Twelve Doctors of Christmas' and 'The Christmasaurus' before the end of the year, because of obvious reasons... Have you checked out 'Dragons Green' (first book of the Worldquacke series) or 'Rivers of London' (first book of the Peter Grant series)? Both have a slight 'Harry Potter' feeling about them plus in the Peter Grand series ate also graphic novels tied in... Happy reading ☺

[@hxnnahtan]

im not from singapore but from malaysia, and its nice to see that chinese and malay, the two languages i learn since young besides english being used in a book! 😍

[@xbroadwaybabiiix]

Now that Im on winter break, I feel like I just want to READ ALL THE BOOOKS!! I always read like three books at a time- one audiobook, one physical book and then one "self help" book (the self help books usually take me months to read because I only read them when I need them) I'm currently reading "Dare: The New Way to End Anxiety and Stop Panic Attacks Fast," but I'm not looking to finish that right now... Right now, I'm about 70% done with Warcross on audible and then idk which audiobook I'm going to read! For physical book, I'm choosing between The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry ORRRR Eliza and Her Monsters (not sure which!!) and I'm hoping to finish one of those!

[@kaleishwari1]

I love your eye makeup for this video😍😍😍😍😍

[@MLovesxYou]

Can you do a room tour? Also do you ever read so where else besides your house? If you do what do you take with you? Just your book or anything else? I know youve said before you write on your books or mark them but im wondering what do you mark? Scenes you like? Certain lines or quotes??

[@wikkedlildifranco]

I love Austenland! I could watch that movie on repeat. It's so adorable. I have read Pride and Prejudice a gazillion times. LOL

[@alliewithbooks]

I'm the same way with books!! I've put off finishing The Night Circus for almost 2 years even though I'm like 200+ pages into it I just don't want it to be over!!

[@BooksAndBigHair]

I can’t wait to read Crazy Rich Asians!! THUG as amazing :) I’m currently reading when dimple met rishi and my not so perfect life by Sophie Kinsella!

[@123sccshelby]

Go you! You can do this! I’m trying to read all of the Harry Potter books in December...and I’m 200 pages into #6! Two more to go😂

[@perpetualpages]

Thanks for reminding me that I should add _Crazy Rich Asians_ to my Audible wishlist! _Nevermoor_ is one I hope to read at the beginning of 2018 ❤ And the only reading goal I have left is to at least start (if not finish) _Little Fires Everywhere_ 🔥🔥🔥

[@abigaillrodriguez6400]

Finally someone like me!!! I am so the same. I try to do a tbr but I end up reading something else and end up reading more than one book. I'm currently reading 3 books

[@addictivegamer102]

I've just completed my reading challenge of reading 45 books this year! I decided to read 2 more books though, currently almost halfway through The Titan's Curse (really good so far!) and after that I will read Simon vs. the Homosapiens Agenda :)

[@kathiegongwilliams811]

My book I'm trying to finish before the end of the year is "End of Watch" by Stephen King. It was a New Year's resolution to myself to finish one book (I'm trying to get into reading) so I picked up the book back in March while at the airport, lol. I'M ALMOST DONE! It is taking me 9 months but I'm almost there.

[@jackiesliterarycorner]

My reread of Cinder, but I brought Heartless with me while I'm at my grandmother's.

[@Sophie_Woit]

a big must for me is: The Neverending Story (not really before 2018 cause I aint making this in time) but a big goals at least before/until march 2018 (omg I am the same always pick up a few but not reading through gonna work on that too ^^)

[@leathehatless]

I need to finish reading A Darker Sjade of Magic and Autoboyography for my Readers Crossing reading Challenge, that ends in 30/12. Good luck Zoe!

[@LaurenceRoberge]

I’m in the same situation right now! My TBR pile for December was basically my Currently Reading pile haha!

[@LaurenceRoberge]

I also raise my challenge every single time I reach it haha! I like to push myself I guess 😂

[@campbellmason76]

I loooove Pride and Prejudice 😍 I support! I support!

[@EmMcCabe]

I do the exact same thing with books where I save the ones I know I'm going to love LOL great video

[@christineconn3526]

YAYYY ANOTHER VIDEO

[@BonesandBooth92]

Im trying to finish book #70 but i have a winter class and crazy work hours BUT IM TRYING REALLY HARD TO MAKE IT! Ive gotten The Raven Boys out of the library at least 3x this yr so i had to squeeze it in!

[@corawardleigh8343]

This is weird but I love your teeth lol

[@liminalum]

Cora Wardleigh That’s not weird at all. I’d love to be told that my teeth are amazing.

[@helpimdrowinginfeels]

I just started The Iron Trial, and I am certain I will finish it before 2018, especially because it's a quite short middle grade book. I'd also love to read Murder on the Orient Express, too!

[@reneesbookends3050]

How do you make your Hazelnut Hotchocolate Coffee again? Last time I wrote to you I forgot to tell you that I live in Florida too. Jacksonville. I also read 3 - 4 books at a time, right now its 4. A Gathering of Shadows, Our Dark Duet, Rose Blood and Genuine Fraud. Looking forward to doing the next readathon. Merry Christmas!

[@rebecaa7482]

I think you should complete The Hate You Give first because it seems like a great novel that involves very important issues, and because I think the movie of it just got filmed, and it's always fun to read the book before you watch the movie. And I have to complete Pride and Prejudice and Mistletoe by Melissa De La Cruz by the end of 2017 because it's my Christmas book for the year, and it's pretty good so far! 👍😊📚❤️

[@CharlotteEdmonds626]

Wants to read all the books, but also sooooo many youtube videos to watch!

[@billybobjoebobjoe193]

Need to finish The Paper Menagerie by Ken Liu! I've been putting it off because I know it's my favorite book of the year, and I'm not ready to be done with it!! I only have a few of the short stories in it left :(

[@kelseykahler]

Hey I think you would love the Wings series by Aprilynne Pike! It's about faeries. I couldn't put the series down! There are four books in total. Very memorizing novels! I devoured them!

[@Ohsheadults]

What I do is that I do TBR filled with more books than I can read so I have a little bit of everything for every mood

[@kyeatsumi3666]

My TBR shelf is 2 shelves and I'm getting new books for Christmas... I'm drowning in literature and I am okay with it.

[@2012MWHSJournalism]

I also read The Hate U Give during finals, and I forgot to continue reading it since I had so many things to do during finals time!!

[@hayleysmith6008]

Never seen austenland before but it's on my list!! Where did you get your copy of Pride and Prejudice book!? I love it. Which edition is this xx

[@trinidadbaranao7728]

oooommmmmggggg the pride and prejudice cover ahhhhhhhhhhhhh

[@caith475]

I'm in the middle of three books and I'm going to try my darn hardest to finish them before the year is over. They're all big books so I hope I can do it. The books I'm reading are: A Dance With Dragons by George R. R. Martin, Furyborn by Claire Legrand and Nemesis by Brendan Reichs

[@janelleb2957]

I want to finish the Dorothy Must Die series. I started it forever ago and never finished so now I'm rereading the first two. I forgot how great the series is!

[@Blimp91]

Cool! I strongly support your decision to replace your TBRs with a Currently Reading kind of thing. I find that much more interesting. Do watch out for the numbers, Zoë. They don't mean much, but they can make you believe that they are very important. Reading's not a race and I won't love you any less if you finish "only" 59 books before that clock strikes midnight.

[@itslitwithleshai3819]

I love your sweater! I have a batman hoodie and the hood is a mask haha

[@hoedepot2794]

I'd recommend for you to read "The Bastard Of Istanbul" because it's such a fun novel and Asya is a very relatable character.

[@ditadolezalova836]

I didn't know that I need Austenland in my life before this video. Now, I can't imagine my life without it :D :D
