come book shopping with me in lake forest park 📚✨ (book shopping vlog and a book haul feat. my mom)

[@mikaylalorraine6410]

I love how authentically you you are, regardless of who you are around - your mom, sister, friend, etc. Such a comfort channel.

[@gabbyreads]

Aw thank you so much 🥹😭

[@ReadingNymph]

Love a day spent book shopping, this was so cute with your mum. Blacklist bonanza could 100% be blacklist published books not just ones you have owned for a while

[@itsmattiebeck]

I love how supportive your mom is of you and your channel! She is #1 mom goals ❤

[@sheyannestewart]

Your mom just loves spending time with you and supporting you so much 🥺🥺🥺

[@gabbyreads]

She’s the best 🥹🫶🏻

[@insanebutterfly3439]

I love your mom. She is the sweetest. I love her.

[@Anna-dp8ee]

I love videos with your mum. They’re so precious. She’s the best 💞

[@akankshapravin1418]

GABBY YOUR MOM'S VOICE IS SO SWEET. SHE WOULD MAKE A PERFECT TEACHER, KIDS WILL LOVE HER. SAY MY HELLO TO HER.🤩🥰😍

[@_foreverabookaddict_]

I second the vlog where after you go shopping, you read the books you got from that trip! And yes to more of these videos! They are so fun and cozy to watch. Also, i did not like I Have Some Questions For You. I gave it 2 stars. It was so boring. The audio book was a snooze fest for me 🤣💜

[@KlaraBreznik-jm9pj]

You and your mom are the cutest. Love your vlogs.

[@danhickey5707]

I recently relocated to South Carolina, but I lived in Seattle for close to 30 years and Third Place Books is a true gem of the Pacific NW. I'm glad that you enjoyed your visit! It's such a great little spot to shop, chill and get a bite to eat or a cup of coffee. Also worth noting that once or twice a year they have a big sale on used books...so books that are already marked down are even cheaper! Cool video.

[@Tisaya]

Always love the driving footage! Washington is so beautiful!

[@shawnieadams1319]

Even though they're older, I think your new haul books can be separate from your backlist tbr books. However the mood strikes you! 😁 📚

[@tracyhoverson8294]

So cool! You’ve inspired me to go to third place books, it’s so close to me & I’ve never been! Love it when you and your mom hang out. She’s such a sweetheart.

[@wce6]

It's so exciting going to book stores new and second hand because you can always find a great bargain in half price books I love your videos because you have such a great personality and have a passion for 📚 📖 📚 I love love love books 😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@karenreads7430]

Seeing your mom and you spending time together makes my heart melt. I love hanging out with my mom also. ❤

[@shawnieadams1319]

I loved The Memory Police!

[@notthemostread]

I loved it too! ❤

[@strawberrylime33]

I wish there was a half priced books store near me!

[@jamesduggan7200]

I'm glad you're enjoying your life while getting ready to travel (to Italy!). I might be jealous of all those big, new stores with clean surfaces and shiny woods and metals, but I have had my day in the sun and you deserve yours too. Book shopping was once a favorite habit of mine, however the only story I have is the time I ran into my ex outside of the Barnes Nobles on 5th ave. It was so weird because there's never any parking in NYC so I had to drive around the block 2 or 3 times until I found a small spot in front of an Au Bon Pain. When I got out she was just walking by, and I called out to her. We spent the rest of the night browsing and chatting. It was nice.

[@lesap8889]

Loved the boarding school trope. Went to boarding school for 4 years in an old hotel. Really spooky! Loved it. Already bought them both online. Thanks Gabby!

[@carolridley1228]

A vlog where you read some of these ‘book haul thriller reading vlog’ would be great! I’ve read the memory police and it’s definitely more literary dystopian.

[@sophhnavarro]

The Memory Police is great! Weird and kinda lit fic-y. Also, love the video concept!

[@Dr.EgonCholakian]

I really like your mom and sister in the vlogs

[@Sad.Purple.unicorn]

I love Your relationship with your mom. She reminds me of my own mom.

[@raynahailey]

looks like such a fun day!! the memory police is also on my list to read

[@ssd1453]

I LOVED Memory Police!!!!!! enjoy it xoxo

[@NorthStar3922]

I love these book shopping vlogs! ❤What if you did a follow up vlog reading a few of the books you bought during this video?

[@odessaodette7855]

I ❤❤❤❤HPB…when I travel outside of MN, I look to see if the state I’m going to has a HPB within driving distance 😅😅😅 so I went to a few down in AZ so far but my plan is to go to way more 😂😂 😂 My bestie friend and I use to joke that we couldn’t walk out of one of their stories without spending at least $50 to $100 each visit…mind you this was 20 years ago

[@OneDisgrace]

That third place is my regular book store I LOVE IT. glad you had a good time and got to visit :) I've been to several cool author events there too and would highly recommend to anyone in the area!

[@lynnbraden1044]

I always love your bookshopping videos - you really have nailed the way to make those entertaining for readers.

[@gabbyreads]

Thank you!!! ❤

I found the small version of the first Finley novel at my local thrift it is so cute

[@jelenarizova8877]

And in my happy place again. And hi mom! 🥹💜🌷

[@cadeylinn]

Aww we love to see a day out with Kim! ❤ another fun video

[@megandent4580]

I love that you extended the length of the shopping clips in this video. Felt like I was at the store with you!

[@bethanymarquez808]

I love shopping videos! Your channel is a comfort for sure ☺️

[@gabbyreads]

Thank you!! ❤

[@ninaj3662]

I grew up walking to this Third Place Books from my parents’ house all the time! I still live just a 5 min drive away. They also have a food court, a stage, and other shops in there. I’m so glad to see you enjoyed it!

[@wce6]

Your mum is fantastic ❤😊😊😊

[@heeeyev]

17:00 that hairstyle suits you so well! 🤗 your mom is adorable, lucky you

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

That pizza looked delicious omg 🤤

[@conifercrow]

You're making me so homesick! Pagliacci's is probably my favorite pizza on the planet (they've got a green one with artichokes and feta that I've had literal *dreams* about since I moved away), and I used to bike on the Burke-Gilman and get off at Third Place for a drink and some book shopping. Elliott Bay is still my fav bookstore in town, but Third Place over there is a close second. :)

[@balletbookworm]

OMG, your mom is the cutest

[@tanyaembly7630]

I noticed the book All Is Not Forgotten in the video that is a really good book. I actually got my hardback copy at the dollar tree.

[@Bookhoarder5]

I loved seeing your mom (I miss mine!). Enjoy every moment with her, for sure!

[@robynkahle7240]

I love you book shopping with your mom, so fun. Do more, go see all of them!!

[@alexandrakeckmontanari5180]

Nice video your moms so cute! I need to check out more book stores 📚

[@simplyjishi7255]

I can't believe it's been five years since I started watching your videos.❤❤❤

[@gailfreitas5860]

Nice to see such a great book shopping trip glad you and your Mom both enjoyed the experience and lunch looked really delicious. It was a. nice area and great stores. Enjoy the reading.😂

[@ChristyVerveer]

Love this video with your mom.

[@casieblevins7253]

I love to see the footage of where you live and travel. It's so beautiful there! So lush and green. Idyllic. I've never been to the Northwest.

[@kate-ne]

I think you should keep your backlist as books that have been on your shelf for a long time, but maybe have a different concept for the books you got today to still give yourself a reason to get to them soon 😁

[@Whtpaper]

I loved The Memory Police and I Have Some Questions for You. I love bookstores that have new and used books side by side. Please take us along when you visit another bookstore - I enjoy those videos. ❤

[@mildrumpus]

I discovered your channel through this video. I miss Half Price Books so much! We don't have any here in New York. Third Place Books looked like a great store as well. I love how they displayed their books. Happy Reading! 😎📚👍

[@gabbyreads]

Thanks so much!! ❤

[@BRhymesss]

I vote you add the older releases to your backlist bonanza! I think it will help you prioritize them bc normally new releases are going to get priority when you’re a content creator who reviews books 📚

[@autumnritchie1473]

Loved your haul! 🥰🥰🥰

[@Bitbit3427]

Well now I have to go book shopping !!!!!!!! Need an exciting vampire book any suggestions? Mom you’re so great to hang out with ! I could live in a bookstore !!! I would add them to my back list since they are older books and also add them to my new list that you haven’t ever read before and newer to you❤❤❤❤❤❤.

[@madeleinenowak876]

I went to that bookstore a few months ago! Super cute!!! Apparently the Ravenna location has an attached cafe and is more quaint than the other two.

[@talkingcrow]

The Ravenna one used to be a PCC :)

[@rebekahmackenzie]

This was a wonderful vlog! I love these vlogs

[@kenyaddacreates]

Love this video. Thanks for the manga recommendation. I love Blood on the Tracks

[@17caria]

I can't wait to hear what you think of those thrillers; I need to try "Murder in the family" as a physical book. Personally, I would have these be separate from the spin the wheel, since these books are new to you, but totally up to you, obviously!

[@Realmisskrose]

The Third Place in Lake Forest Park is my favorite book store.

[@Bamberdoodle]

I love Third Place Book store! And yes they do signings. I met Colleen Hoover here 🎉

[@rachelmcdonald6092]

love these types of videos!

[@haley5803]

I love these videos! FYI, the Seward Park location of Third Place books is in South Seattle, so it's far away from downtown. The Ravenna location is in North Seattle, but it would be easier to get to downtown, imo.

[@agirlfrommars3441]

Love all your content but these are top tier ❤❤

[@gabbyreads]

❤❤❤

[@SuperStrangSshadow]

I recently read In the Dark by Cara Hunter which also had mixed media. I enjoyed it.

[@thekhameleonreadsbooks]

you make the best vlogs! 💓

[@gabbyreads]

Thank you!!! 🥹💗

[@annmariesloan8406]

Heading down to Washington in September for a book signing event called "RainCity Authors Event" in Seattle. So will definitely be checking out the Third Place books at Seward. It is like 19 minutes from where I sm staying❤❤

[@judychapman1868]

I think you should add the books to the wheel, go for it!!! ❤❤Judy❤❤ PS. No, I haven’t read the book you talked about in this video but I have a book diary that I’ve written your recommendations in the last couple of years and always choose my reads from!!!!

[@gabbyreads]

That’s so sweet!! ❤

[@Ms.SpookyNerd]

Great vlog 📚☕

[@case4147]

There’s an upcoming movie based on The Memory Police starring Lily Gladstone! Sounds really interesting. Murder in the Family also looks like such a cool read!

[@luca.desu.2590]

I lean towards keeping blacklist bonanza your personal blacklist as more in the spirit of it, but I feel like if the book is like pretty old--maybe at least 5 or 10 years it could still make sense too

[@spookygeek9459]

Good book I’m dyslexic but I always love going in bookshops just to look and the smell of me books like the library people laugh at me they say you can’t read books but I love books. I listen to books. 📕 👍📕

[@sheyannestewart]

I hate mass market paperbacks with a passion 😂😂

[@janesocalgal2278]

Wow great book shopping with your mom ! I don't like the small mass market books. They don't match my other books. Too tiny.

[@paramedicchrisbookseries]

Love this.

[@kaesinfinitelibrary]

Wish I had a Half Priced Books somewhere near me 😭😭

[@CheDeco15]

I don’t know if it would be too repetitive for you but I’d love to see a reading vlog of Murder in the Family, I Have Some Questions For You, and True Crime Story since they’re all kind of mixed media, podcast/film, solve the case as you go books. 💜

[@brandytaylor1986.]

I’m getting a kindle for my birthday I’m going to get it early so I can go on trip my family is going to Dollywood

[@premadimauro2691]

Adore your mom.

[@NamasteBbooktube]

Hey Gabby, have you read 'Chasing the Boogeyman' by Richard Chizmar? Since you are so excited by mixed media books or books with photographs that make the fiction almost feel like non-fiction, you might enjoy that one!

[@Jodecisweet]

Cara Hunter is one of my favourite UK authors ever however Murder in the family was just ok. Her others books in the DI Fawley series are soooo good and much better than murder in the family. Would recommend.

[@GraceDionneReads]

I wish we had Half Price Books in Canada!! I would go feral in there

lol. I don’t know if those books should count as backlist bonanza. But hey whatever you like 👍🏼

[@Dr.EgonCholakian]

The scar on your moms lip makes her look bad ass

[@sarahfolger5232]

Oh no. I don't think you're going to like The Memory Police.

[@wolfme4030]

No pun intended, but I found Memory Police pretty forgettable. I genuinely hope you love it though when you get round to reading it. My interest has been piqued over the Ace of Spades author book by multiple KZbinrs.
