bookshelf scavenger hunt chooses my next read📖😮

[@squidwardtentacles7144]

Honestly Ellen don't worry about posting negative reviews. None of us are going to like every book that we read and that's okay. I genuinely find your reviews (negative or positive) very helpful because you seem to catch on to things or mention things that maybe other booktubers messed. I for one love your reviews whether they're positive or negative. You're just so entertaining to watch and I love your videos!🥰

[@bookswithellen]

you always leave such lovely comments🥹🤍 thank you. i’m so glad you enjoy my videos x

[@arafisms]

I addorre booktubers who are honest when it comes to book reviews. it gives me so much insight into their tastes tbh!!

[@drpepperfanatic44]

I'm obsessed with your bookshelf!!! It's so pretty!

[@bookswithellen]

i reorganised it yesterday and i already miss the rainbow🥲🤣

[@charlottecusson6838]

I really like your honesty when reviewing books. Taste is entirely personal, so if someone gets offended by your review, they should like at themselves and why they get so triggered.

[@bookswithellen]

thank you so much, i’m glad you like my reviews!

[@nekane8360]

you talking about your health anxiety is so healing because it isn't really talked about so thanks for that ❤‍🩹

[@bookswithellen]

i always find it so reassuring when other people talk about their mental health so i’m glad that it’s reassuring for you too🤍🫶🏻

[@madhuk9135]

Aww it’s sad that you didn’t like the book you got but that’s okay! The scavenger hunt bit is always so fun to watch. 💕

[@bookswithellen]

i love doing the scavenger hunt bit!!

[@readingtillnight4604]

Don't worry girl,i dnf'ed this book after 20%, you are not alone in this 😅😊

[@bookswithellen]

hahaha i’m so glad i’m not the only one who struggled😅🤣

[@linasburrow]

I am not one to comment usually as I do have social anxiety..but just wanted to pop in and say thank you Ellen for the efforts you put in creating content for us to watch. I love your videos so much and I wait every Wednesday & Sunday as it's a new Ellen video day! Keep up the great work bestie! Your videos make my day! 🎉❤

[@bookswithellen]

thank you so much for this - it’s so sweet🥹🫶🏻 i’m so glad you like my videos. sending you lots of love!!🤍

[@maisiereads]

Marriage for one has been on my radar to read for ages (back with that old cover haha) interesting to hear your thoughts! A moment to say goodbye to the rainbow shelves 👋

[@bookswithellen]

OMG YES THE OLD COVER!!! it took me so long to realise they were the same book when the new cover came out lol. and r.i.p. to the shelves🫡

[@katiewilliams9374]

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! I am obsessed with the energy that you bring and your commentary is so funny. PLS continue to make more videos! I am so happy i stumbled across your channel a couple weeks ago!

[@bookswithellen]

thank you so much this means a lot🥹🫶🏻 i’m so glad you’re here!!

[@saralynn22]

I followed a long to choose my next book and got A River Enchanted! This was really fun. I really love your videos

[@bookswithellen]

that’s so fun!! i’ve been wanting to read a river enchanted so you’ll have to let me know what you think🥰

[@federicatramontano9343]

i loooove scavenger hunt videos!! and i love your channel

[@bookswithellen]

i’m so glad you like!!🥰

[@ana_0408]

I love these videos!!!❤

[@bookswithellen]

🥰🤍

[@kristenk2503]

honestly if people are looking for a book that has those tropes id read Terms and Conditions by Lauren Asher, sounds like its the same tropes but its less toxic, plus theres no medical things involved!

[@bookswithellen]

i loved terms and conditions!! i agree😊🫶🏻

[@susan_nab]

As someone who suffers from health anxiety as well, I literally can't read books with any health topic in it. That's the reason I google the trigger warnings for every book I want to read before starting them haha. Can't risk accidentially reading about stuff I don't want to🙈

[@bookswithellen]

i feel like i need to get into the habit of checking for health related trigger warnings cos it really ruins my reading experience when it pops up out of nowhere🙃 i’m glad im not alone with that!!

[@susan_nab]

@@bookswithellen I also never used to check the health trigger warnings, until I read a book which massively triggered me so that’s when I decided it’s probably smart to check them! I’m also so glad to know that there are more people out there who also struggle with health anxiety and in books and stuff bc honestly it sometimes can feel like such a lonely part of anxiety because not many people have it❤️

[@booksbypatries]

Not everybody is going to like all the books in the world, there are so many books and we are all different! I do appreciate your honest opinion about the books, it actually helps me decide if I'm going to read it or not.

[@bookswithellen]

thank you so much, comments like this mean a lot🤍

[@SealQueen]

Oh nooo haha I literally just added this to my tbr as I bought the Ella Maise bundle from the works 😅 I can't stand grumps that are just rude for the sake of "character quirks" If I wanted a rude ass MMC i'd read a bully romance haha

[@bookswithellen]

i bought the exact same box set🤣🤣 but honestly the writing wasn’t bad at all so i’m hoping i enjoy her other books!

[@coffeeeandskies]

I love these videos 💌

[@bookswithellen]

🥰🥰

[@louisejames9064]

Getting rid of the rainbow 😢 i am excited to see the outcome though - will there be a video?

[@bookswithellen]

yes there will be!! planning on having it up next week :)

[@mycrypticthoughts]

i'm late lol.. been so busy. anyways.. please don't worry about the reviews you post. Your honest opinion means so much to me and i love your videos and reactions to whatever you read. It sucks you didn't get a great book in the scavenger hunt nonetheless, amazing vid as always ❤❤ can't wait for wednesday's vid lol 🥰🥰

[@bookswithellen]

thank you so much🥹 and thank you for being here🫶🏻

[@rekakokeny]

i've had my eye on this book for the longest time, thank you for taking it off my TBR 🥲

[@bookswithellen]

it’s honestly not worth it!!

[@sophiechristie]

I want to have rainbow shelves but i don’t want to separate the series that are different colours 😂😭

[@bookswithellen]

i have literally JUST organised them into genre now so all my series are back together and it’s SO satisfying hahahaha

[@inesribeiro3325]

I’m absolutely the same with health anxiety 😢 this book wasn’t on my radar but now I’m definitely not reading it😅

[@bookswithellen]

i’m glad someone else can relate😅 i would definitely steer clear

[@bencollier1047]

I love your videos so much!! I’m currently reading kingdom of ash and sobbing!! I’m a little scared going into acotar that it’s going to be too spicy and not much fantasy, how much fantasy would you say there is compared to throne of glass??

[@bookswithellen]

i think it’s a similar level of fantasy to the throne of glass series, maybe ever so slightly less!! there’s defo spice in ACOTAR but i don’t think it’s toooooo much, i would say a court of silver flames is where it stays to get properly spicy. i really hope you end up loving it!!!

[@Niina-py5uw]

I did the scavenger hunt with you and I got behind the net by Stephanie Archer I will comeback once I finish it to tell you my rating ❤❤

[@bookswithellen]

omg that’s one of my fave books ever!!! hope you love it🥰

[@MeganElisabeth]

New subscriber here! 😊 Found your channel through this video and am so happy to be here.

[@bookswithellen]

welcome!!! thank you for being here🫶🏻

[@Cho-lee_is_reading]

don't worry about it ellen i hated the book too i only finished it cause i was reading it with a friend and we both hated it. and your right the man wasn't cute grumpy he was just mean. this book should have stayed in the drafts. ps i've found you today and just spent most the day watching your videos i love them your so funny and sweet and i love your accent is so nice. wishing you good health and happiness for the new year 💜💜💜💜

[@bookswithellen]

i’m so glad i’m not the only one!! i agree it should have stayed in the drafts😬😬 and im so glad you like my videos! thank you so much for being here🥰🫶🏻

[@sallyredgrave7051]

How frustrating that you didn’t love it! Great video and summary, I love your channel and have got so many ideas for books from you! I’m about 75/25 books/kindle, I would love to read more on my kindle, but I find it so laggy! Which kindle do you have and would you recommend? (Sorry if you’ve covered this elsewhere, I’m a relatively new subscriber) 📖

[@bookswithellen]

i have the kindle paperwhite (i believe it’s the version just before the newest one, i got it about a year ago) and i love it!! hasn’t been laggy at all for me so far luckily😊

[@Cassandrareads]
