What's the best book you've read in February? :D

[@PrincessPts]

Just finished Mistborn this morning (still counts as Feb, right?) It was great!

[@melissamalone5923]

Where The Crawdads Sing!!

[@samuelm2989]

I literally read 3 5 stars in a row, but the best one was definitely educated by tara westover (and the next best becoming by Michelle Obama)

[@rickandrews968]

Beyond the Edge: Death in the Grand Canyon. A very interesting non fiction book about the history of people dying (and some near deaths) in Grand Canyon National Park.

Game of Thrones!

[@reemhamdy1516]

It's becoming too cheesy and i am lactose intolerant😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@kristybittick4688]

Piera Forde is making a Nevernight film web series for KZbin this year . She got approved from the author and got approved a grant from Screen Australia . Can’t wait to see what she does with it

[@MrKenimora]

This jumper is so cool!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Thank you! Kid me would have died for that sweater lol

[@Rose94162]

You look so cute while talking about nevernight! And I'm sold on your recommendation. Can't wait to read it

[@tiredcatcat]

The Shape of Water is such a good movie and I really hope you watch it. Yes, it's a weird love story but the movie is so well done that I didn't even think about that. It has a beautiful soundtrack and the actors are great and idk it made me feel things and I don't normally like love stories. So yeah, pls give it a chance! 💕✨

[@sabornisaha8962]

Finally someone who has something positive to say about it! I loved the movie so much when I watched and all this bashing has been throwing me off ever since

[@Shella132001]

I loved the movie too. So weird but so good.

[@froncifresh]

The movie was sooo dreamy 💫 But to be fair, i read the first few pages at the bookshop and i didn't like them at all

[@tiredcatcat]

@@froncifresh I haven't read the book yet but I guess it's pretty hard to put to paper all the things that made the movie so good (acting, soundtrack, colors, etc) :/

[@pamelastephens73]

The movie was beautifully done. It was a weird story, but it felt believable in the film.

[@claudiaroblesmenvielle1480]

I recently wore a dinosaur sweater too and I have no shame as a 30-year-old woman. :P

[@sarah13pink]

Everytime you talk about cheesy romance YA, i just have to pause and laugh...because it is exactly how i feel! 😂

[@Me-jn9uu]

Same ✨

[@giulimarra]

I’m so happy you enjoyed Nevernight! It was one of my favorites in 2018! Can’t wait to hear your thoughts about Godsgrave! 🥰🥰

[@PrincessPts]

Very excited for Children of Ruin! Loved the first book!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I was so surprised by the ending! I have no idea how he's going to continue it... I'm hoping it will be just as good!

[@PrincessPts]

Yes. Very interested to see where he takes the story now. And when it takes place. That ending was so good and surprising!

[@laurie7032]

I loved "Les fiancés de l'hiver" ! The second book was even better so definitely give it a go ! :) And book three really extends the world so it's really interesting. Personally, it's one of my favourite series now ! I hope book 2 will convince you :)

[@MlleBambi]

I read the three books of the Passe Miroir serie, and the next two weren't worse or better, so there you go ! A bit more of world building though, so that might interest you, and in the third book we get a background for why the world is like that, and it made want to read the fourth to get the whole backstory.

[@Shella132001]

I read the arc for the second book in The Winter's Promise series. I feel like a lot of your questions will be answered in book two. The book is still pretty slow paced but I ended up enjoying it. I'll be reading book three. Also I'm glad that you pointed out that it's not a translation thing because I found the writing to be weird too. And assumed it was the translation. Also that whole "He's falling in love with me" through me for a loop too. I was like... Girl. What are you talking about?! Lol

[@amn384]

I also read the ARC for The Missing of Clairdelune and completely agree. I read it right after A Winter's Promise, so I think that helped me enjoy them even more, especially given the cliffhanger. Also, Ophelia not being constantly abused in the second installment helped a lot.

[@Shella132001]

@@amn384 I agree. I read them back to back too.

[@aggieyes59]

Hello from France! I loved loved loved Les fiancés de l'Hiver. Read it in French and I'm right in the middle of book 2. I didn't find the pace slow at all and I personally found the writing beautiful! What I really like about the characters is how they surprise me all the time. You never know who's good or evil because most of them are in between! You should try out book 2! 😁

[@TheHannieCorner]

You always read so much and I'm just in awe of that! I really want to read Nevernight sometime this year because it looks amazing.

[@brokenremedy7821]

Hi Emily. Could you make a video on how read so fast? And how you get out of reading slumps? Love your content!

[@poorlyfleshedskeleton5873]

I've felt the exact same way with popular characters that I thought were flat or not very developed but other people talk like they know them so well and can assume all this stuff about them! It used to drive me crazy because I thought I was just missing something or reading the books and/or characters wrong some how, which doesn't make sense because my favorite parts of any book are characters with good characters, characterization, character relationships, and character development nearly always being what makes or breaks a book for me. I've been thinking about this more sense you mentioned it in your reading vlog (love the reading vlogs!) and I think the reason I--and maybe you--don't connect with these characters or feel we know them well is because we're just reading them as they are on the page. What we see is what we get and if we fill in any blanks it's because the books have clearly implied what should go there. For other people I think they snag on a character trait that they like whether it be quirk, flaw, or maybe just what role they're playing in the story and their imagination races ahead of them to flesh out the type of character they're reading about and so they create a character that might not even be in the story but that they love. I think this happens and it works because a lot of these characters that are flat but readers seem to know intimately are just never fully developed so readers never come across anything about the characters to contradict their vision of them in their mind. A lot of these characters are really just archetypes with maybe a couple of specific or unique detailing but that's it; the super witty and wise-cracking con-man who's smarter than nearly everyone in the room always, the clearly-damaged-overly-serious-quiet-hyper-competant friend/lover, the one with the self-destructive tendencies, the one who is loud and confident only to mask some sort of inner pain, etc. Readers very nearly create their own characters to move through the story, with the author nudging them gently into a specific direction to get them started. The problem is not that a reader who doesn't connect with the characters is missing something; the problem is that that reader is expecting the author to give them something that the author just doesn't give. From a marketing stand point it works because people clearly enjoy this, but from a stand point as to whether this is actually good writing; it isn't. It sucks and it needs to stop. A couple of months ago I read "The Thief" by Megan Whalen Turner which follows a main character who falls into the "super-witty and wise-cracking con-man who's smarter than nearly everyone in the room always" trope but is actually way more than that and very well developed, and it felt like finally being able to take a proper drink of water after only taking sips for years. The book is absolutely fantastic as a whole and really put into perspective a lot of what I don't like about modern YA fantasy books, and the lack of properly developed characters is definitely one of my biggest issues, and unfortunately one I don't think is going to go away any time soon because it's obviously very lucrative right now. Anyway, sorry this comment is so long! I just love over thinking things! But I am definitely going to check out Nevernight now because I always need more fantasy books with well developed characters in them!

[@AngelikaRenee]

I found I’ll be gone in the dark very dense. I struggled with staying focused. I tried reading the audiobook and physically reading it.

[@lizardslaw2661]

I have a first edition autographed copy of Nevernight on my shelf that has not been read. It just got placed on my TBR for this month.

[@amn384]

I felt the same about Sing, Unburied Sing, though I did end up finishing it. Idk, I also read Lincoln in the Bardo in February and had similar feelings. Beautiful writing, an important story, highly praised, and a prize-winning book... But they both didn't work for me, but I do feel in the minority.

[@jennawar13]

Before She Knew Him, The Test, Nevernight, I'll Be Gone in the Dark, and The Silent Patient are all on my list to read at some point. I read A Winter's Promise last month too, and I gave it 3.5 stars. I enjoyed it, but it certainly has its issues. I want to continue and hope the next book is better.

[@chloemurdoch9074]

I'm so glad you read Nevernight! Definitely one of my favourite books at the moment. I'd love to see a vlog for when you read Godsgrave!

[@kaiwyatt8203]

Laughed out loud at “Twilight flashbacks” 😂

[@thetaskofbeingkristine1923]

I loved the Nevernight as well, I'm reading Godsgrave this month as well, so excited, you have read so much last month Emily, it's amazing, I need to step up my speed :D

[@rickandrews968]

I've got the second Murderbot book in my library TBR. I really enjoyed the first book. BTW Martha Wells wrote a fantasy novel called Death of the Necromancer that was pretty good. I read The Shape of Water. I thought it was an ok book. I gave it three stars. I like magic realism and I do see how that makes a big difference as to liking the story or not. I still haven't seen the movie. I think I may end up reading the Kristoff book. Your enthusiasm for the book and what you have said about it makes me think I would probably enjoy it a lot. Thanks for the video.

[@Kaosbabe161]

I hated how graphic descriptions of the violence in the shape of water. The monkeys escaping his head after his throat was slit like omg

[@summerchu813]

GIRL how do you manage to read so many books in a month!!!! #mindblown

[@nerdtastic2014]

I read A Winter's Promise in January and really enjoyed it overall, but I do agree with a lot of the negatives and questions that you mentioned. I can't wait for the English translation of the sequel to come out in May! I'm really hoping the romance develops through the series, and I'm eager to learn more about the world and magic system.

[@cozyafternoons]

Of course you need to read more fantasy! ;) Your discussion about A Winter's Promise was really interesting. I was definitely looking at that book before but I hadn't seen any reviews yet so I had no idea how it would be, but after yours I think I'm going to stay far far away from it haha

[@kb-ih7ni]

Your crease liner thingy is back! I loved it the first time I saw you wear it

[@alice951996]

le tome 1 de la Passe Miroir m’avait aussi laissée perplexe, le début était très lent et j’avais beaucoup de mal à rentrer dans l’histoire. mais le tome 2 et 3..... GÉNIAUX!!! je te conseille vraiment de continuer la série car elle vaut vraiment le coup!! l’intrigue et les personnages se développent et on tombe la tête la première dans cette histoire 😍😍

[@literaryfreak1146]

I loved a winter's promise! I enjoyed the fact that Ophelia was flawed. I enjoyed the ride except for that 1 chunk of the book where 80 different things were being described as boring

[@angelc12000]

I haven't read any of Nicola Yoon's books, but I did love her short story in the anthology, Because You Love to Hate Me, which was fantasy. I really want to read Nevernight. I really enjoyed the Murderbot Diaries. She is writing a full length book on Murderbot.

[@maddielc204]

I really slowed down with my reading this month. I only read one book, but it was the 5th in the Wheel of Time...so it was like 700 pages. It was huge so that's my excuse for not reading a lot. 😂

[@ericaholbrook5656]

Madeleine Lily same here I am reading the first book love it so far but dam is it long and I don’t think I am even half way yet

[@miralolar6069]

I feel the exact same way! I also read it in french, it is my first language and thought I was the one having problems with reading 😂 I am left really confused 🤷🏻‍♀️ I feel like I might eventually, possibly, one day read the other 2 books 📚 but I am not in a rush to do so...

[@emiloubooks6708]

13 books omg!!! 😂❤ So many reads i'm going to check out and add to my TBR, thanks!!

[@vermenaa]

A winter's promise does get better :)

[@Amanda-dn4ld]

YOUR SWEATER!!! 😍 I felt like the movie Shape of Water is so incredibly simplistic it just gets stupid and unbearable. Like we get it they guy is bad and the fish is good.

[@tialavallie4034]

Maybe I will have to give NeverNight another chance.... I DNF it last year, everytime I picked up to continue I just felt ugh... not the feeling you want Haha 🤣 but maybe I just didnt get far enough in!

[@teliabattle3986]

Yes I have that "The Sun is also a Star" on my tablet but I want to see that movie when it comes out in May

[@heathermanning5663]

Hey Emily! Would love if you continued on reading the Throne of Glass series. I thoroughly enjoyed your video on the first book, I enjoy hearing you analyse it and opinions on such a popular series! I myself have just started throne of glass, not really feeling it but I’m intrigued to keep getting through the books! X

[@ReiraWrites]

The second book of the Mirror Visitor is definitely better! The author explains more things and the characters start to get more interesting. But I do understand your issues with the first book, most of the times Ophelia sneezed instead of speaking for herself, and this makes it hard to build a compelling plot.

[@severnhale5176]

Haven't even watched the video yet but I'm so excited!) Thank you for all the work that you putting in your channels. Because of you I want to watch more Booktube. And your book videos are now my first priority over beauty videos)

A Winter promise gets really better with the second book :)

The only fantasies I've read this year was Kings of the Wyld and Bloody Rose by Nicholas Eames.I am not a fantasy reader,but the were incredible!Kings of the Wyld is by far my favorite book of the year so far.Highly recommended.

[@SylviaGdeVries]

Great wrap-up, you read so much! My favourite this month was Shadow of the Fox, it was cute and hilarious and I loved all the character and the plot.

[@LiliOV]

Thanks to your channel I read in 2 days "The seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo" and it was my favorite book of the month by far, it was simply beautiful and i cried like 3 times (i'm not an easy person at crying though). I toooooootally love it, thnak you for your recomendation!!

[@PatAndBooks]

I feel the same towards A Winter's Promise! The world and magic system/s seem so interesting and we didn't really get a full understanding of both. The characters were so unlikable. The romance seems out of nowhere. And at that part I was also like "Girl calm yo self" I wanted to love it too :(

[@ninathompson6232]

i'm dying to read nevernight!!! I found it in the library but it was in spanish so i didnt buy it. I did get stormdancer though, to try Jay Kristoff. I'm currently loving it though!!

[@Spcyfic]

Loooove the jumper!

[@LisbethJimenez]

I liked a Winters Promise but I feel that the book should have been longer or maybe they should have cut out the beginning of the book where she is with her family. I am looking forward to the second book whenever that comes out :)

[@deanbocconcino1527]

I'm reading really little this year. Mostly because of university added to depression. Lately I'm getting through the Cirque du Freak series by Darren Shan and I'm really enjoying it, though. Also, my third language is french and I'd like to read a few books in French. Could you do a video about your favourite French books? It's okay if not, it's just an idea

[@Szandyfletcher]

I feel the same way about A Winter's Promise! And it's one of the most overhyped book in my country which I can't really understand at this moment. Many people say that the sequel is even better (and it's a lot longer than the first book), so I'm waiting for my library to get it. Also the romance... I wanted so much more, and I'm the one who always complains about romance in books. What happened here wasn't even "slow burn". It was basically nothing. At this moment I don't know whether or not they would/should end up together.

I've just started reading Nevernight and I'm struggling with the writing a little bit - I feel like I have to re-read the same sentence 2 or 3 times just to understand what is happening 😂 I also get what you mean about the first chapter - I was like... this is making me uncomfortable already 😂

[@selmaarnaut-madrigal667]

okay i am sold! trying to find nevernight

Thank you, I don't feel so alone, I couldn't appreciate The Shape of Water and forced myself through the audiobook looking for SOMETHING. The ending was interesting but it wasn't enough to save the book

[@ugbad1277]

i really recommend truthwitch of the witchlands series it's so underrated but so good

[@lizardslaw2661]

Yes I read the translated version of A Winter’s Promise, i reviewed on Goodreads. It was sooooo slooowwww. I finally got into it in the last part of book. I have read the arc of the second book (translation). It was better. The main character finally gets some backbone but my god it took too long.

[@helena9171]

I read "A Winter's promise" this month with the book club and yeah, definitely torn between liking it and hating it. Magic part was great but the writing, pacing, Ophelia and some plot twists were terrible. Also, Pole reminds me a lot of a poorly written telenovela. Is anyone sane? Is anyone not overly dramatic? Is anyone a decent person? Find out in the next episode of "Pole's court".

[@Phillybookfairy]

A thriller with twists!!! I just finished No Exit by Taylor Adams. Have you read that one? Its gotten lots of hype on bookstagram but its actually worth it. Its a fast read because i constantly wanted to see what would happen next. Check it out!

[@megandcochrane]

I watched the movie “The Shape of Water” and while the imagery was beautiful and the character of Zelda was just powerful and beautiful but there were things like her daily routine....did I need to know how she spent her bath time while the eggs boiled? The relationship was.....yea. Clerks II comes to mind. Anyway, if you never watch the movie, I don’t think you’re missing anything. I can only imagine how this was written.

Hi! For me, Les Disparus du Clairdelune, the second book in La Passe-miroir, is better than the first book! But, I don't root AT ALL for this romance! (she doesn't lose her powers if she marries Thorn, and he is kind of the bad guy and the good guy at the same time :) - I might add I hate him haha) Happy reading!

[@martineguitard7639]

I need to try to read Nevernight. I tried twice before but I can't get pass the first chapter. 😕 Maybe I'll try again this month!

[@MaryAmongStories]

Stephen Hawking's book sounds so interesting! great wrap up ^^

[@SpoonG]

So it's the writing at the beginning of Fiancés de l'Hiver that's weird, not the translation. I read it in Italian (just because I understand and can read French but I couldn't be bothered) and I was so annoyed by some lexical choices in the first chapters. Anyway it's an interesting series, I'm looking forward to read the rest, the second book has just been transtated. [Btw, I laughed so hard when you said "oooh, déclaration d'amour", I thought the same when I read that part]

[@ashtynrms]

yes!! so excited for your live show!

[@lenamontgomery2542]

Well, it's a bit disappointing to hear that it wasnt the translation that was odd with A Winter's Promise. I was really divided on this book also...I couldn't care that much about Ophelia. She didn't have much of a personality. I'm not convinced that I have the magic system +/- political? system down. It wasn't clear how it worked in either location. And I agree that a declaration of "hey, you don't completely annoy me." is a pretty far cry from falling in love. Girl, slow your role. I was also getting an asexual vibe from her. Not sure if it was intentional or just a result of her unremarkable personality. I gave it 3 stars because I was just puzzled with what to do with this book. I'll look out for the next translation reviews. I could be convinced to continue...

[@adelineyvette5395]

Hi Emily The Shape of Water one movie of the year at the academy awards of 2018. It was pretty weird but interesting.

Oh nooooo~ I still feel like I am the unpopular opinion on Kristoff's books. I just don't think he and I gel as a author/reader. I did read all of Nevernight and most of Godsgrave, so it's not just the fact that I get stuck. In fact I liked the beginning more than the end. I just did not like them and have yet to find my peoples... I think the book gives "I'm better than you" vibes at me or something. Pompous?

[@nymstorm1090]

I've read La passe-miroir in french (I'm french so...), the three first books, and it doesn't really improve. I really like the first one but I think if I reread it now I wouldn't like it as much. The world could be cool, but the plot and mostly the romance in the third book don't make sens at all. I don't think I'm gonna pick up the fourth one when it came out, and frankly they are way better books out there, so I'm gonna focus on reading what I really want to read. Also I don't understand why people keep comparing this to Harry Potter (both of the heroes have glasses ?).

Hey Emily! Always love your wrap ups! But I was wondering, would you recommend The Silent Patient to someone who doesn’t usually read thrillers? It seems interesting. Also, I have to recommend See What I Have Done by Sarah Schmidt. It’s freaking crazy!!!! It’s about Lizzie Borden, who in the late 1800s murdered her whole family and got away with it. Literally google Lizzie Borden, look at her picture, and you can see in her eyes that she’s insane. And the author doesn’t leave out ANY details. It’s just..wow. It’s good, but I cringe at certain details. I highly recommend for you, plus, there’s not really any romance! There’s like this one scene, but then it’s over. And the parents of course are married, but they kinda hate each other. I hope you try it!😊😊

[@atheistnun4297]

Lauren Knauer Lizzie Borden took an axe and gave her mother 40 whacks and when she saw what she had done she gave her father 41. I’ve never heard of that book. Going to have to read it
