I'm Giving Up Control of my Goodreads Awards TBR 😅🏆

[@kyrasaturn]

i still can’t believe you’re doing my idea! i love that you’re as down for the chaos as we are 🫡 i can’t wait to see how this plays out ❤ and you pronounced my name correctly hehe

[@BooksandLala]

Thanks so much for the idea bestie, you're an icon! 👑

[@readingid5917]

Liam coming in strong with the iconic teen disinterest 😂

[@allen-reads]

“I like dungeons, you like drama” is actually really cute and I feel like y’all should pose like the cover

[@tehguava]

I can't believe you're still trying to deny us the dragon vlog.

[@BooksandLala]

😂😂😂

[@lindiemoon]

🐉 🐉 🐉 🙏 🙏 🙏

[@krystlita]

DRAGONS DRAGONS DRAGONS!!!! We want the dragons!

[@WendyTheGeekGoddess]

Yes!!! 👏🏼

[@DementedDurum]

I might not care much for the choice awards. But I’m here for all the booktube content it’s giving us❤

[@Taralovescoloring]

not gonna lie - it's pretty much the only reason I care about the awards - the booktube content is stellar

[@arobinreads]

Same!

[@Hillary429]

Because of the 🤠 jars we have to go with Swift and Saddled 🌵💕👢

[@BrittWarren201]

Good point 😂😂

[@firewhiskeyreader8257]

I'm going to go with A Love Song for Ricki Wilde. Also, Libby holds should definitely count!!

[@elskabee]

Agree, they should count! but I guess only if all of them are available on Libby, I know for my library that would not be the case

[@hhau5]

The Cinnamon Bun Book Store! And yes Libby counts ♥️

[@nicolefegan]

the way I'm GIDDY excited to see what you're about to pick from each jar. this must be what doing a slot machine feels like fr

[@BrittWarren201]

I love the analogy 😂😂

[@jennymurcia5150]

My pick is A LOVE SONG FOR RICKI WILDE. This was such a delight to watch! Everyone say “thank you, Kayla!” for always keeping us on our toes and for how fun and creative your content is! So I decided to return the favor with my romance pick since she said it’d have been her pick if she had gotten the “favorite cover” prompt! Cannot wait for the vlog!

[@ReadingAce]

Yes, Libby should definitely count! It's also coming from the library!

[@2206lauretta]

Agreed!!

[@AmberD-nl6od]

Agree!

[@jaimee-kate]

Kayla you never stop having the best, most engaging ideas on BookTube! This is why you are the QUEEN!

[@connorfuges4936]

your example at the beginning actually happening is insane

[@cat.book.nook.]

It gives me so much joy 😅

[@sc-wq2tu]

you know how to keep a girl engaged Kayla! props to the person who gave you the idea also, i’m voting for a love song for ricki wilde

[@pucksandpaperbacks]

I vote for _A Love Song for Ricki Wilde_ by Tia Williams. Yes, Libby holds definitely count! Lmao I love Rob's thought process narrowing down the YA category lol

[@udishaverma7862]

"The love of my afterlife" sounds interesting for the Romance section.

[@EmJeanReads]

A love song for Ricki Wilde!! One of my favorite reads of the year.

[@Hillary429]

You could check out the UK/international covers for the audiobooks, just in case there’s a real winner hiding out there 🖼️

[@BooksandLala]

Ooooh great point! 👀

[@AliDoisRead]

“Did you have to use the word cull?” 😂

[@nenerson1195]

Dungeons & Drama is actually super cute! Excited to see it getting some attention.

[@tanellenash7383]

Agreed! It was my vote in that category, so good and underrated

[@netogrof]

I voted for it! I really loved that book. It was super cute

[@BetweenLinesAndLife]

HAPPY GOODREADS CHOICE AWARDS SEASON TO THOSE WHO CELEBRATE!

[@taylorglas]

I vote for A Love Song for Ricki Wilde! :) and libby holds should totally count!

[@makerandmoxie]

I feel like Voyage of the Damned matched your outfit so perfectly and had flowers too!!

[@benjikade]

she said in the members live that she agrees that it looked like it matches on camera but in person her dress is much more green than blue! hence her not considering it

[@myreadsbooks]

Swift and saddled - it sounds like it’ll be a fun experience regardless

[@ShelbyPlatt]

Libby holds definitely count! Might also help diversify the results a bit better! 🤗

[@stephanierenee7655]

Swift & Saddled was my pick for best Romance. I loved it even more than the first book in the series!

[@joannaismolting]

that transition to the desk 😮‍💨

[@lindsayk1014]

Cinnamon bun book store :) I want you to have as much fun as possible with this and not suffer 🤣

[@stevie_in_the_stacks2516]

Same! Cinnamon Bun Bookstore for the same reason

[@TheodorePigeonDanis]

It looks so cute!!

[@zara6472]

Cinnamon Bun Book Store gets my vote. I enjoyed it and it's relatively short and quick to get through, so if you're not enjoying it, it'll be over quick. I preferred it to the first book (and it reads as a standalone so you don't need to remember book 1 in detail) so it will be interesting to hear your thoughts as you also liked book 1. Thank you for the video and option to participate!

[@nikka501]

My vote is for the Paradise Problem. This video is so fun!

[@the_creepy_geek]

I genuinely look forward to Kayla Choice Awards content all year!

[@kenzienoelle124]

Rob’s feelings about the word cull😂😂 Also, as a historical fiction lover who just finished reading The Women, I hope you don’t have to read it🤪

[@cat.book.nook.]

It should be subscriber's veto 😅

[@jjamieallover]

LOVE this video idea, very fun to see you get to read some things you're excited about but also have to stretch outside your comfort zone. happy goodreads awards season to all!!

[@sarahwaldie4908]

Swift and saddled sounds like a camp time! 🥰

[@onceuponabookishsteph]

If anyone needed a single video to understand why Kayla is top tier, this is it 💕 Thank you for this content 🙌

[@BooksandLala]

ahhhhh this is SO nice!!

[@421annAnna]

Swift and saddled is so quick and fun!

[@shannon2281]

Paradise problem! I haven’t read it yet, but I’m excited to!! 😂

[@noct505]

Swift and Saddled for the cover alone

[@sarreptitious]

Blood's audiobook was very good! It's narrated by the author and I learned so much

[@CancerrGirl92]

I LOVE THIS IDEA. Also with your love for romcoms, I actually think you would like The Paradise Problem.

[@shellkay]

I love how much fun you make with your reading & how original your videos/challenges always are!!

[@daryanreads]

i was about to go to bed but i simply must watch this first

[@ryreads]

You are so fun. Thanks for being you.

[@teresa.nguyen]

As a romance reader, it is my pleasure to pick the romance you're gonna read 😈😈 and my vote is for The Love of My Afterlife. It's fun and heartfelt. I think even if you don't love it, it'll still be a pleasant read!! 🫶🏼 Also it reminds me of The Seven Year Slip, which I know you loved!

[@elvytica]

Nice transition omg! 4:24

[@Amanda_reads]

Love this video! My vote for romance is: Kevin Kwan Lies and Weddings. Hoped the wedding setting would work for you :)

[@heyemilya]

Your reaction to the Romantasy category from last year lives in my head rent free any time I think about the genre or hear someone mention it. Fingers crossed you read The Bog Wife for horror 🤞🤞🤞

[@alisonmcafee9412]

Libby absolutely counts!!! How to End a Love Story was one of my favourite reads so far this year!!!!

[@meaganahlf7390]

Dungeons and Drama is so cute!

[@amyparis93]

I loveeeeed just for the summer😭 so that gets my vote! Xx

[@pucksandpages]

I’m voting for The Love of My Afterlife! ❤

[@Emma-wn1fv]

Swift and saddled is my pick just because I love the cover !

[@franbaity1631]

Just for the Summer got my vote. I loved it.

[@pettyella6607]

Loved Liam's participation! I too interacted the least I could eith grownups at 14😌

[@loruffa]

Libby should count imo. Fyi, the Tommy Orange book is a prequel/sequel to There There if you haven't read it. You *can* read it as a standalone, but the book is better if you don't

[@MariaMarsbar]

Absolutely love this video!! I love how you change it up every year and have the most original ideas! I've been reading The Pumpkin Spice Café so I'd love to see you read The Cinnamon Bun Bookstore for the romance pick ☺️

[@S.Y.77]

Libby definitely counts as coming from the library

[@kate-ne]

This Summer Will Be Different! I think it could be a four star for you, I really loved it and it was my vote for the category

[@onmalsshelf4800]

Swift and Saddled!

[@Leigh_orange]

First: I love this idea for your Goodreads Choice Award vlog and hope you do it again in the future Second: Swift and Saddled bc I need your thoughts on cowboy romance Third: Libby holds absolutely count!! Happy reading 💞

[@Anna-m7y9n]

1st pick: Cinnamon Bun Book Store! 2nd pick: Ricki Wilde

[@noracramer3593]

I loved the chaos of this tbr and I can’t wait for the vlog! My vote is for swift and saddled!

[@meganward2466]

Swift & Saddled! Love the cover!

[@gabbyreads]

I love that you’re picking your TBR in this way, it’s so fun!! 😍 I would also vote for A Love Song For Ricki Wilde! 🤩 or The Love of my After life

[@PastelGhostie2]

I’ve been in the hospital for a while and I just saw this and it’s calming me down ❤ thank you Kayla

[@thornyrose1235]

For the memoirs, Here After was an absolute tearjerker. It was stunning and beautifully written. It was also fairly short (lots of blank space on the pages & short chapters) so if you're short on time, that's probably a good one to go with. I'm currently reading All in Her Head and it's fantastic. Each chapter is fascinating and it's going by fairly quickly. For the Romance category - my vote is for Tia Williams Libby definitely counts for library holds!

[@ashlynhale3369]

Just for the summer!

[@hannahhelm3770]

Swift and Saddled and I hope you like it!!!

[@oliviabradley8638]

My pick for you is The Pairing! I loved it

[@ckortney]

Such a fun video, as always! I vote for The Paradise Problem.

[@keillyo812]

Swift and Saddled! Also, libby holds should definitely count. You'll need some audiobooks for this I think!

[@jessireads]

out of the romances the paradise problem is the most rom-com-y so potentially one you'd enjoy most!

[@clementinehetherington6525]

That first transition was crazy!

[@louiseb5046]

I love love love these prompts!!

[@Wildflower1013]

Lol your mom choosing your fantasy novel is so chaotic. I'm half stressed and half amused at the idea!! My vote for the romance book is The Cinnamon Bun Book Store, because I haven't started that series and I want to know if it's worth starting and/or continuing when I do haha.

[@hannahandherstories]

Swift and Saddled just because I think it’d be fun to see you react to a western romance. Also I personally think Libby holds count! Although if either of the two books you think come in from the library first do, I’m interested in your review of both (Wandering Stars and the Bookshop!)

[@aster_3188]

loved this video so much, can't wait for the follow up!

[@trulyintroverted]

LOVED Rob's reasoning for the culling. Especially Dungeons and Drama 😂

[@anabookadventures]

The Cinnamon Bun Book Store is my vote since you had a good time with the Pumpkin Spice Cafe!

[@aliciatolman3627]

My vote is The Love of My Afterlife. Can't wait to see the results!

[@michelleferguson7212]

Lies and Weddings for the romance vote, hopefully it would match your romance tastes with humor and full on wedding aesthetic!

[@madnabox6499]

This was so fun to watch. I hope you like the YA book. I read it this year it was really cute.

[@mollyb698]

LOVE this video! My vote is for The Cinnamon Bun Bookstore!

[@AkkunPakkun]

Girl you're glowing in this video! You look amazing. Also love the content. Thank you for keeping me motivated to continue reading :)

[@katiemariereads]

I have been trying to figure out how to pick my goodreads tbr and this is the PERFECT idea!

[@caerulean13]

Swift and Saddled is my vote for the Romance category!! Can't wait to watch the vlog 🫶

[@StaceyMathis-p6i]

The Love of My Afterlife was fun! That's my pick!

[@amylouise7289]

The boot is so cute!! And Libby holds definitely count! I pick Lies and weddings because I think it has footnotes and I’m curious about it! I cracked up when rob said he’s the dungeons and you’re the drama. I see it 😂

[@elskabee]

putting my vote in for The Cinnamon Bun Book Store since you liked the first one Love this idea for picking the books! Very chaotic but a lot of fun

[@punchingwalls1011]

Totally voting for Wild Love ❤ I read it and loved it it got me obsessed with Elsie Silver; I even bought and annotated a copy for my friend’s birthday ❤

[@audiobookworm13]

libby holds should totally count!! I'm so excited for the vlog you have no idea

[@7antics]

My pick is the cinnamon book store!! Also the pure terror when you picked romance had me dying, so valid 😂😂

[@lisaphipps4507]

Loved The Paradise Problem!

[@tiffani_reads]

The Cinnamon Bun Book Store because a cozy romance seems like fun

[@corena5623]

I'll choose the Cinnamon Bun Bookstore. I just finished it a couple of days ago! Even if you don't like it, it's a fast and easy read, so that should help with all the books you have to read and I think it would be a good pallet cleanser

[@onpagewithlinds]

Hahaha Rob’s opinion on the word “cull” 😂 it’s just what we say in the photography/videography world!

[@AdventuresInPages]

My vote is for Lyla Sage’s Swift and Saddled. I don’t think you’ll love it, but it was a good time for me and it’s a really quick read

[@thewesternsky]

I really just love and appreciate the time and effort you put into the various graphics that you have in your vids. They are always so well done and just super helpful. Happy reading!

[@SparklesFantastic]

Swift and Saddled and Libby holds SHOULD count for sure. ❤

[@Samantha042597]

I vote Cinnamon Bun Book Store, it’s sooo good! But I highly recommend the Lyla Sage series 😊
