I will literally travel to the UK just for a store like "66 Books". That's looks so cool. Not sure if we have something like this in the U.S. I think it might vary by state. Great video by the way! Love ultimate book videos. They're so fun!

[@bookswithellen]

it’s so cool isn’t it!! feel so lucky that’s it’s just down the road from me. thank you for watching (and always commenting, makes me happy when i see your name in my comments box!!❤️)

[@agohl85]

Those hardbacks of the classics are gorgeous!!

[@KateClason]

I adored Before I Let Go, it also had me sob a little bit as it's also an emotional read as well, but it was so good.

[@missskireads]

You are my comfort booktuber. 💛 I could and would watch a 4 hour video from you. Lol 💛

[@unimooney]

i’ve been going through your vids the past couple days and you deserve so many more subscribers!!!! your content is as good as the more famous booktubers!! wishing you more success xx

[@bookswithellen]

thank you so much🥹🥹

[@alexandraverreault]

You're videos always make my day!! ✨️💕

[@lizzieycos]

talking about LGBT+ books, i think you'd love The Last Binding series by Freya Marske, it's a trilogy, relatively low fantasy set in the early 1900s England and each book focuses on a different queer couple!! they were super quick reads and so much fun and also have GORGEOUS covers!

[@bookswithellen]

omg i’ve heard of those!! that sounds right up my street, thank you for this!!

[@ashley_taylor]

16:54 you should read Don’t Want You Like a Best Friend by Emma R. Alban!

[@bookswithellen]

ooh i’ve heard great things about that one!! already have it on my wishlist🤭

[@Shelbysshelves]

Ugh I’m obsessed with your shelves!! Love this video!!

On The Same Page by Haley Cass is my favourite sapphic romance. It‘s best friends to lovers with a redemption arc and it‘s on KU, what more could you want?

[@bookswithellen]

it looks SO GOOD!! omg, all of my fave tropes. has been very swiftly added to my tbr hahaha, thank you!!!

I have been eyeing up the Cranford Classic of Little Women! Usually they retail for £20-£30 so £5 is a bargain! Looks like I need to go and visit 66 books next time I visit my mum looks like a book lovers heaven! Love this kind of video, chilled and relax 🤩

[@bookswithellen]

wish i’d known and i would have picked up a copy for you!!! very happy that i managed to get it for a fiver if they’re usually £20-30!!

Sapphic rec: Delilah green doesn’t care (the whole series is sapphic and very cute!)

[@bookswithellen]

i read delilah green and loved it!! defo wanna get to the rest of the series🥰

[@_floharvey]

RUNNING to 66 books. Why have i never heard of this?!

[@loz9320]

cleat cute is one of my fave books right now!

[@bookswithellen]

makes me so excited to read it !!

[@loz9320]

@@bookswithellen i rated it 5 and i wanted to read it straight away again so take that with what you will but hopefully i havent just hyped it up for you too much!!

[@Samantha.Griffin]

You should totally do a recommending books video based off zodiac signs!

[@abigailclemence8919]

Have you read she gets the girl or Cinderella is dead? Or for graphic novels - on a sunbeam, the girl from the sea

[@Lioli267]

Some really good sapphic/LGBTQ+ Books are Last Night at the Telegraph Club Or the Romantasy series Girls of Paper and Fire The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is also really good

[@MSOHare1981]

I liked the night swim, it was well written. Another good thriller/mystery writer is Freida McFadden. I've only read her Ward D but it was really goood, and I thinks he has a lot of her books on Kindle Unlimited at least here in the states.

[@bookswithellen]

ooh yeah i’ve reads the housemaid by her and enjoyed it!!

[@melanieandbb]

Would love to know who are some of your favorite booktubers

[@niamh4426]

if you like cleat cute you should read merly wilsner’s other book ‘mistakes were made’ it’s one of my faves. also try out the bright falls series or the ms right duology !!

[@bookswithellen]

i have swiftly added to my tbr🫡 thank you for this!!

[@leslieannelehner2609]

Have you read the Simon Snow series by Rainbow Rowell??? It is a queer romance series with a magic aspect...

[@bookswithellen]

i ready carry on years ago but then kinda grew out of it so never read any more!

[@TheSimikira]

i went to 66 books on a sunday at like 10am and walked right in no queue at all!

[@bookswithellen]

omg yeah i heard that a few weekends ago it was empty!!! i’m jealous hahaha

[@rue.h05]

I have never heard of 66 books and now i feel my life is complete 😄

[@crypticgembooks]

I absolutely hate real ppl on cover lol i have happiness for beginners and it's a gorgeous book cover! Great vid as always ❤❤

[@inesribeiro3325]

Waiting for your opinion on Happily Never After to decide if I should read it or not 😂

[@katelynwashko]

there are so many new releases i'm losing count 🤭

[@charlottekatz5241]

I’m also a bisexual who wants to read more LGBT+ romances. This one I haven’t read it yet but I have wanted to read it soon. It's called Read Between the Lines and it’s on Kindle Unlimited. I do think it’s part of a series and there’s another book apart of the series as well if you end up liking the first book if you read it. I would love to see you read more LGBT romances. If you say a book is good, I will be adding it to my tbr.

[@bookswithellen]

omg amazing!! i have added it to my tbr🫡 thank you!

[@Turtledove2970]

Hi Ellen I have an idea for one of your videos could you do a reading whatever my boyfriend touches and whatever he touches you have to read then review.

[@loureadsbooks]

0:16 can anyone tell me where I can get those hardback classics? Thank you!!

[@Thefrenchlitwitch]

i LOVE 66 books

[@sairahgupta3091]

also random question i know you loved the 'love wager' but did you like 'mr wrong number'

[@bookswithellen]

no i didn’t!! gave it 2 stars 🥲

[@elenareadsbooks88]

So strange seeing 66 when I lived in St Albans I used to go there all the time and normally only a few other people there and defo never a queue this was about 7 years ago how things change 😂

[@bookswithellen]

i know!! i used to be able to walk straight in like 5 years ago, but no more🤣

[@brisalovesfontainesdc]

awww i won an arc of cleat cute on goodreads but ended up not liking it 😭

[@melodycollis]

Also not me needing to edit a KZbin video but getting completely distracted by your upload 🙃🙃🙃

[@bookswithellen]

hehehe hope you enjoyed🤭🤍

[@freyaconnell843]

I need to know where the cowboy romance jumper is from!! Is it the same Etsy seller you posted about ages ago???

[@bookswithellen]

it’s from @literaturestitches on instagram!! she has loads, all of my bookish sweatshirts are by her!! if you use ELLENCATHERINE10 you’ll get 10% off too🤭🤍

[@AbigailRichelle]

Unfortunately Happily Never After was a bust for me! I decided to DNF at about half way. I just didn’t feel any connection at all with the main characters.. such a bummer because I LOVE Lynn Painter 😕

[@bookswithellen]

oh no🥲🥲🥲 really hoping i end up enjoying it anyway!!

Shame I don't live near 66 books, because otherwise I would be running there!

[@emersongrey8650]

Wait I didn't know you're bi?? I mean I already really liked your videos and your honesty as a reader, but as a lesbian, I am beyond thrilled. Would you consider reading queer books for a week maybe for pride month? I've always wanted someone to make that video I also have so many queer book recs because that's all I read so here's a couple adult favs/on my immediate tbr: One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston; Delilah Green Doesn't Care by Ashley Herring Blake; Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir; The Jasmine Throne by Tasha Suri; Late Bloomer by Mazey Eddings; Here We Go Again by Allison Cochrun I definitely have a ton more for YA, but those are all adult, I'm pretty sure. Also note that I'm in the US.

[@bookswithellen]

yes!!! i’ve not really had an excuse to bring it up so i feel like most people don’t know, but i am very much a bisexual woman!! thank you SOMUCH for those recs!! i’ve heard of most of them and ive been really wanting to get to them, i literally just bought ‘late bloomer’ and im planning on reading it super soon!! would love to do a sapphic reading vlog too🤭🫶🏻

[@emersongrey8650]

@@bookswithellen I'm so excited! I'll try to think of more adult recs and get them to you on other videos going forwards :)
