[@ashleym7703]

Flowers for Algernon was amazing, definitely ahead of its time.

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Agreed!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I've beeb asked to do a Q&A so leave any questions you want!! :D

[@Sherlika_Gregori]

Please tell me how you manage to read so many books in a month?

[@tarthart5701]

what was your favorite book as a child? Do you have siblings? Who is your favorite Author? What is your favorite book to movie adaptation?

[@eleni1888]

[@emilymayralove650]

LifewithEmilyFox book that made you get into reading?

[@sarahmurrayxx]

Do you have a job? Or any pets??

[@beautyandthebooks2672]

The unwind will always be a creepy favorite of mine.

[@daynalousiepotton4923]

could you do a video of book channels you think are worth watching after i watch one video on this channel i need to watch more

[@comicBookChick]

My favorite by King is Carrie and I'm currently reading 11/22/63 by him and loving it

[@NikNikNeuro]

I've been trying to read more Stephen King, myself. I read Misery this past summer. I'm reading The Stand now. They're worth a try. 👍🏼📚

[@nikkik7848]

I am so happy you read & loved Flowers for Algernon. This is the first book I remember reading when younger that really impacted me & made me love reading :)

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

It was heartbreaking!

[@JenKayna]

Just discovered your channel! I loved hearing your thoughts on all of these books. I've been getting more and more into posting book videos on my lifestyle channel- the book tube community seems amazing!

[@manon7574]

I read my first Stephen King book this summer and loved his writing. 11/22/63 is definitely one I'd recommend for you to read! Also because it has been turned into a series with James Franco :))

[@comfycozycrochetwithtris1188]

Absolutely loved Fantastic Beasts!!! The Niffler was so cute!!! I thought they did a great job!!!

[@karenkoutsoumbaris6308]

Love hearing about your reads , I'm reading Mistborn also Harry potters chambers of secrets

[@tonyadull]

Regulators and The Dark Tower Series by Stephen King are must reads. Loved The Final Empire. Waiting on book 2.

[@scrollsofdragons362]

I liked Fangirl but its not a book I could see being in love with, Levi was probably one of the best characters I liked in it, it was Cath I didnt much. I read 9 new books, 4 rereads which is a slower month for me too. Fantastic Beasts, Im just obsessed with it and am loving all the dicussion videos to just chat about it.

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

10 books is a bad month for you?! DANG GIRL, YOU KILL THE READING GAME My Sister Rosa sounds incredible, I need it in my life

[@pandacranium]

11/22/63 and It by Stephen king are amazing, I'm currently reading joyland by him and it's pretty decent so far

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Oh yes that one is on my list :D

[@xfindingsquirt]

The Dark Tower series by Steven King is pretty popular. I only read the first book. It was kind of weird, but interesting. Fantasy, horror, and science fiction if you're interested!

[@portelasofia98]

when you held fangirl up I swear my heart broke in two pieces hahah

[@LodemaiSu]

I feel the same about "Fangirl"... Kisses from Italy!!

[@MichelleCR223]

it's so nice to see someone else who didn't care for fangirl. I felt like I was the only one!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

The more I think about it the less I liked it! Glad we're not alone :)

[@Julee2310]

I didn't enjoy it either. I was super excited to read it because there was so much hype going on but I got so bored and ended up skipping the fanfiction bits alltogether just to get through the book lmao

[@brandnewbooksmell531]

Great wrap up! I can't wait to read My Sister Rosa!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Hope you'll like it!

[@jellyfishpurple414]

hey Emily, Stephen King's Gerald's Games is a must read.

[@tonyadull]

jellyfish purple yes. now my #1 fear

[@SofieFieJohansson]

Just gotta say, I never ever read any kind of thriller/crime but your reviews of some make me so intrested Im gonna go for it so thanks for opening my eyes to more genres!

[@rian6858]

Stephen king: dark towers series, the shining,and misery for sure! happy reading!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Oh yes! I got the first one of the Dark Tower and your two other suggestions seem popular too!

[@noavandebrug6126]

The Stephen king Bill Hodges trilogy is amazing!!😍😍

[@anna--emilia]

so glad you liked the Final Empire! can't wait to see what you think of the rest of the series :) and I've read Unwind and I plan to leave it at that first book and I like how it's absolutely satisfying on its own!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I'm curious to see how it will end! I'll let you know if it's worth continuing ;)

[@alilbitmads]

If you like weird books you should read Nevernight. It's high fantasy about an assassin bent on revenge but the narrator is unreliable and it amazing. I just added most of these books to my want to read on goodreads!

[@kendrapost1133]

I really enjoyed Fantastic Beasts, especially the Thunderbird!

[@lynneb2186]

I just bought the Kind Worth Killing based on your great review. Thanks!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Hope you'll like it! :)

[@chantalfleury3493]

The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon is one of Stephen Kings books that has always stuck with me, it's different than a lot of his other ones. But I second Everything's Eventual and I also loved Liseys Story (but I think I'm in the minority there). Did you finish The Black Prism? I haven't checked to see if it's in another video yet but I LOVED it. I bought it on audible when I saw it on your list and the narrator was amazing. I devoured all four books in like a week!

[@ReadEatGameRepeat]

I bought the Mistborn trilogy a few days ago with some of my birthday money, I saw it an immediately remembered hearing about it in your videos, it looks super interesting and I hope to get to it soon :)

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Hope you'll love it! I just started the second one and I love it so far!

[@kittish-om1pm]

Glad you tried Stephen King. I've been trying to read all of his books in order of publication (up next for me is Christine). I would recommend Salem's Lot of all that I've read so far. It is the only book that has made me so scared I couldn't get to sleep which is rare for me. I also really liked The Shining and Cujo.

[@camilayquewea]

Misery is the best book of SK for me if you are looking something like thriller, but if you want to read something that is more in the sad way you should try the green mile 💙

[@ashleym7703]

OMG you hit Unwind too! That one gave me nightmares haha...

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I'm happy we don't do things like that :P

[@chemina7270]

Hi Em! At what age have you realized that you enjoy reading and do you still remember the book or series that got you hooked?

[@radiantkittens9808]

i didnt read the book of Fantastic Beasts (and i might not, since its just the script) but i saw the movie and i thought it was amazing! both the movie and you inspired me to actually start reading harry potter which i (surprisingly) have not actually read before (have seen the movies though) so im super excited! only on sorcerers stone right now but its super good so far! (also i am one one of those people who gives 5 stars to every book lol)

[@kebaughn]

Hey Emily! Love your videos! I'm a huge Stephen King Fan & my recommendations would be Misery (a traditional thriller) or Different Seasons (a collection of shorts stories) 📖 All of his novels are great to me tho!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Will have to check them out :)

[@makaylasodeman1697]

If you're looking for more books about psychopaths, you should definitely check out the I Hunt Killers trilogy by Barry Lyga. It's about a 17 year old whose father is a famous serial killer and him trying to figure out how to continue living his life after his father is arrested. Really awesome series with some super interesting insights into the brains of psychopaths. Highly recommend!

[@imtoooldforthisship905]

I loved I Hunt Killers! ..but I never moved on to the next book. Is it a trilogy? Is it worth continuing?

[@makaylasodeman1697]

I'm too old for this ship Yeah, it is a trilogy and I think it's totally worth continuing on. I personally think it got better and more intricate with every book and I really loved them!

[@esterlolo6193]

Abruption by Riley Mackenzie is so great

[@tesscap5052]

I love fangirl!!! but I appreciate your opinion about this book. different people has different views... I can relate about u sometimes not liking ya books because I feel that sometimes. Thanks for this video tho... again I respect and appreciate ur opinion and critique

[@a.mancillas4823]

Told you...about Fangirl.Try with Eleanor & Park ;) Great wrap up!

[@a.mancillas4823]

BTW, love your lipstick, which is it?

[@Intothesunset89]

I feel the same about Fangirl. Not much happens and I wasn't into their relationship either. I have also read Eleanor and Park and while I did like their relationship a bit more, I still the book was just okay. Rainbow Rowell is probably not the author for me but I do want to read Carry On because of I'm hoping it will give me HP nostalgia

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Everyone tells me to give Carry On a chance so I will!

[@catarinamanso4394]

Emily have you ever read the Divergent series ?!?! If you haven't you tottaly should! It was probably the only book that I cried while reading !

[@catarinamanso4394]

Also you should probably read "The Giver" if you haven't yet! But don't judge it by the first book ! U gotta read the entier series!

[@4151993]

Congrats on 10,000 subs!!!! Keep up the great work :)

[@yur.2394]

About Stephen King, apart from the classics, I think you'd like Misery. And just out of curiosity The Long Walk because I really want to know your thoughts about it.

[@singitdolly]

Yu R Oh yes! The Long Walk is amazing. I'm always exhausted each time I read it

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Adding them to my list :)

[@SunriseFireberry]

Congrats on 10K subbies! I think you are the first person from Quebec ever to reach this plateau. Q&A Why didn't you join the thriving French booktube community? Are there special or unique challenges for a Francophone amidst the milieu of English booktube? Where is your favorite place to shop that is not book related?

[@aubriellat6321]

I'm late to the party but what is this lip color? Also I had to read Flowers for Algernon in 7th grade and pretty much the entire class cried ha. It's a classic in the states for kids to read, I want to re read it now!

[@ketowithbecca7330]

I need to read mistborn asap!!!!Great wrap up, you read so many books wow!! :)

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I just started the second one and I'm loving it so far!!

[@pastapins2007]

Am not usally person who can express her emotions easily but i must sayy i had toughh day todayyy and now that am. Not even willing to read anybook i wanna. Just see ur videos to bring me back. My smilee. I nvr liked a youtuber as much as i like u. Ur personality is GOAls to me i. Love u

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Hope your day gets better ❤️

[@lu.beccuti]

LOVED fantastic beast, I've only seen the movie (the book isn't out here yet) but I found the characters really relatable and they keep that atmosphere that made Harry Potter Harry Potter. You can ser that it's only the begining of a series they have to present this whole new world, and though the arc of some characters isn't complete or aren't completely involved in the main conflic I loved them and can't wait to see what they are going to do next and defenetly hogwarts is the best wizading school of the world hahaha

[@oliviac9208]

did you finish reading outlander? i am reading it because you talked about it once. wondering what you thought about it!

[@stephanies9785]

I enjoyed the movie Secret Window (2004). It is based on the novella Secret Window, Secret Garden by Stephen King. If you need a break from reading;)

[@LaurenEllwood]

That cover for Fantastic Beasts is so beautiful! My boyfriend loves the Mistborn series and keeps telling me to read it so I really should get my hands on it (:

[@Spyci9]

The Stand, The Shining, The Green Mile, Pet Sematary, Blaze, The Long Walk. These are my recommendations for Stephen King that I have read. 11/22/63, IT and Firestarter are really good books, but I've not read them (have heard really good stuff about them).

[@bqlax96]

If you want more books about sociopaths you should read the book Darkly Dreaming Dexter, it's part of the dexter series. It was a really interesting read, and was much better than the tv show. I would really recommend it

[@joannacorrado]

yes I completely agree about Fangirl! major disappointment for me too

[@miriam6825]

French canadian!!! Je viens de découvrir ta chaîne. Beaucoup de livres en commun. Will keep looking at your videos :)

[@kydeup1990]

I felt like a unwind stood well on its own also so I didn’t bother with continuing the series.

[@Shanda1387]

You should read Val Mcdernid if your interested in books about psychopaths! Her books are DEFINITELY creepy/scary but really good!

[@MrsAnchyka]

You should read Alamut if you want a book that gives you something to think about especially considering what is going on in the world nowdays

[@AnnaShuk]

I've only read Landline by Rainbow Rowell, and I didn't like it at all. But I own most all of her standalones (stupid of me)... The fail of a first try made me don't want to continue with her books.. I'll give her another chance, but no more, I think. Oh, the Library... I tried it in October, but wasn't feeling it. Will give it another go.

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

It took me a little while to get into it! It took me a few days to read the first half and only one day to finish it! It's weird but it did get interesting (for me at least!)

[@TwilightFan31539]

Finally someone else who doesn't like Fangirl. Everyone was so positive but I did not like it either. It could also be because I'm not a big fan of contemporary books. I have seen Fantastic beasts and I absolutely loved it!

[@alieyaazulfaasmadi5943]

how many pages you usually read a day?

[@eternalangel11]

I didn't enjoy Fangirl much either. I thought her Landline is okay nothing brilliant. The sequel to Unwind... Unsouled is fantastic. I have been wanting to read The Library at Mount Char. My Sister Rosa seems up my alley. And with most YA book now a days I have a feeling that they would have been better as adult book. You should read The Shinning I found it was as good as the hype.

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Oh yay! I'm happy to hear that!

[@charlottemcglinchey2667]

Love this channel so much :) For the book unwind- I think it might be pronounced-un-whine-d which is a word that means "undo or be undone after winding or being wound." This might help you understand the title more. Just mentioning it since I know english isn't your first language! And if I just misunderstood how you said it, I apologize!

[@underlinetruth9745]

You should check out 11/22/63, Stephen kind excelled on this one. Story about an English teacher who goes back in time to save JFK . I'm almost half way through and it's so fast paced and action backed. Stephen king takes his time with action and not the fastest reads but this is a different story. It's big book though, over 800 pages. Strongly recommend, even though I'm still reading it.

[@noebody878]

don't feel bad I didn't like fangirl either. I'm going to read mistborn when I'm done with golden sun. are you going to read throne of glass soon?

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Not sure how soon!

[@noebody878]

LifewithEmilyFox oh wow I'm so happy you replied. I love your channel. I bought so many great books because of your videos.

[@MusingsofaCat10]

I wasn't a big fan of Fangirl either, it was okay, but it just seemed stereotypical to me. The companion one though, Carry On I think it is? That's freaking amazing so I would recommend to go ahead and read that even though you didn't like Fangirl. And the only Stephen King book I've read (I don't really read 'scary' books, because I like to sleep lol) is Cell, and I loved that one, so I'd definitely recommend it! :)

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I was told Carry On was much better so I think I'll give it a shot!

[@Kris-psc]

First second into the video and I already gave it a like, that's how much I love you Em haha

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

[@alicewilson30]

Pleaseeeee read I See You its one of the best thrillers I've read in a long time. Much love from England 💜💜💜💜

[@natasama1069]

Alice Wilson Watch October wrap up xD

[@TheJoma11]

I had the same thoughts on Fangirl as you! And I think we are the same age haha. So I can tell you that I don't think it's the age thing because after Fangirl I eventually read Eleanor & Park (which is about even younger characters) and I absolutely loved that one! Maybe try it if you wanna give Rainbow Rowell another chance :)

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I'll probably try 1-2 more books but I don't have high hopes now :S

[@stephaniehonaman7149]

you should read origin by Jessica khoury !!!

[@justbelievelt21]

Ok Emily!!! So I went out yesterday to Barnes and noble and got The kind worth killing and flowers for algernon. Anyway! I'm reading the kind worth killing and my face... right now.. is literally 😲 I'm on part 2 and like... omfg..... OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Right?! You're in for a ride :P

[@justbelievelt21]

LifewithEmilyFox oh my gooooshhh..... I want to vent to you but I don't want to spoil it for anyone... all I'm going to say is "page 264"...😫😨😡 dang it!!!!!! I'm not gonna lie.. I'm rooting for lily but... idk man

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Keep going haha :D

[@justbelievelt21]

LifewithEmilyFox omg!!! page 286!!!!!!!!!

[@justbelievelt21]

EMILYYYYYY!!! I just finished it and I'm so upset!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ☹️😡

[@cailleyvaughan2878]

I totally agree with you about Fangirl! I heard so many people raving about the book and then when I read it, it was a huge disappointment. I loved "Eleanor and Park" but the book just felt too long and too boring.

[@harrypottergleestarwarsdis4817]

I have been read two Stephen King books salems lot and pet sematary

[@karolinastranska2554]

hi, first of all, love your channel! it's super chill. have you read/watched We Need To Talk About Kevin? the movie is obviously super well known. the first time i tried to read the book i gave up, but ive read it recently and absolutely loved it. it's in letters and from his mother's point of view and i think you might enjoy it, considering you like books on sociopaths. :) (plus the movie is bomb dot com obviously)

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I haven't! It's on my list though :)

[@madyyyyyyy]

You should try 'Salem's Lot by Stephen King! Its my favorite of his that I've read

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

That one was already on my list! Can't wait to read it :)

[@harrypottergleestarwarsdis4817]

I have been reading Salems lot

[@MsMinnesota6]

When you held up Fangirl, I was like GIRL SAY WHAT?!?!?!?!?

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Haha I knew it would probably not be a popular opinion but... what can you do! I'm an old grumpy lady :)

[@caseypace717]

I didn't like Fangirl either, but I did really enjoy Carry On. So you should still give Carry On a chance, I think it's much, much better than Fangirl!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Will do!

[@DeborahSutherlandDebinPei]

Stephen King, is the king ; ) Duma Key was the oddest best book I read of his, considering I did read I think all of his, that one sticks out.

[@tammycochrane2496]

Deb InPEI Duma Key was great. I have read all of his.

[@maddielc204]

If you want to cry even more you should read "For One More Day" by Mitch Albom. It destroyed me. It's great though! :)

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I'll add it to my TBR :)

[@harrypottergleestarwarsdis4817]

I read fantastic beasts in October

[@sophieloves5sos]

It's crazy how you read End Of Watch but not the first two other ones lol. 😂😂

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Right? haha Way to start reading Stephen King lol

[@jinkisyellowsuit]

I read Fangirl this month too. It made me a little upset when you said your rating, because I loved it... 😦

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

It's okay! We don't have to all love the same thing :)

[@jinkisyellowsuit]

It's alright! I get it. There's a million other books out there that you'll probably like better than Fangirl...

[@harisrazzaque9772]

can u make a video on best thrillrrs, suspense something deeply gripping ??? pls pls pla

[@harrypottergleestarwarsdis4817]

but don't have the sceanplay version yet

[@PurposefulPursuits]

Hey, just curious if I haven't finished the Harry Potter series will reading the new book fantastic beast and where to find them spoil them?

[@fenemica]

Purposeful Pursuits uhm no

[@manjuwestfall9456]

Nope. :)

[@PurposefulPursuits]

okay thanks! Leah Falcone Manjula Ravichandran

[@brennathordson3703]

2 more until 10,000 subs!!!

[@Nadia_Guadalupe]

Finally a booktuber who didn't like Fangirl. I personally don't think the book deserves all the praise it gets since I think Rainbow Rowell's books are problematic but I guess... 😞

[@caseycrook2917]

Have you read The Name of the Wind??

[@sophieloves5sos]

Casey Crook No, she hasn't but she has said she will...

[@caseycrook2917]

Oh good! It's one of my favorite books/series!

[@sophieloves5sos]

Mine too! ☺

[@kscott12345]

I liked Stephen King's The Shining

[@MellyxMermaid]

Please read Carrie by Stephen King!

[@stellatessarollo3410]

How do you manage to read so many books?!?! I do not have that much time😂 Btw, I love both of your channels!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I currently don't own a TV so that helps a lot haha I also read in the bus 1h a day :)

[@AndreaThG]

Your english is amazing! If english is not your first language, where are you from? And I love your makeup, you are really beautiful

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

I'm French Canadian :)

[@Agin86]

Omg are u from Montreal???!!!

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

No but same province :)

[@Agin86]

That's awesome! Finally someone from Qc in the Booktube community!

[@enjytawfik6655]

You're very pretty !

[@olivia1910]

10 books is a bad reading month ? I can barely go through 5 books a month xD

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

Just compare to the other 3 months that I did on here :P It's definitely still great :)

[@kandyluna19]

What is your first language?

[@lovepeace1584]

french

[@lovelyrfc]

10 is your WORST ?!

[@meemoo7]

Oh god i read like 5 pages

[@natasama1069]

Godeater If you have time, go step by step and you will soon read few books a month 😁

[@findAplaceToCallHome]

So... I am not the only person who hated Fangirl. The only parts I enjoyed were about the actual fanfiction in there. you were generous with 2 stars. I gave it 1, and that's only because I couldn't give it a 0.

[@BookswithEmilyFox]

The more time pass the more I want to reduce my rating lol
