Girl CAN YOU BELIEVE I was a team Jacob 🥴 i love hearing people rave about twilight, it never gets old haha

[@katieisreading]

not team jacob... girl PLEASE tell me you have seen the light😖

The first Twilight is unironically good- it actually has a vision, a distinct color grading and design, whereas the others are very mass-markety and lose some of their charm. The soundtrack is iconic for the whole series though!

[@katieisreading]

absolutely agree with all of that! the sequels really just aren't as good (i will continue to watch them though👀) and i LOVE the soundtrack so much

[@cunninglilcutie]

this was such a cozy vlog! The twilight chat was so fun

[@katieisreading]

yay! and i could really talk about twilight for hours...

[@CodiRhear]

Love seeing another reader who also likes to crochet! I knit and crochet and such. Love to read as well. Thankful for audiobooks so I can enjoy both of my hobbies at once haha!

[@katieisreading]

yes!! audiobooks are such a lifesaver for readers who have other hobbies!!

[@GrannySquaresAllDay]

I love your videos because when I’m upset or overwhelmed I can just get in bed with my current crochet project and relax and binge watch all of your videos ❤❤❤😊😊😊

[@Zainzainzain56]

I love summerween vibe

[@katieisreading]

thanks! i hope you enjoyed!!!!

[@hyemiyah]

this was so lovely to watch! crocheting while listening to audiobooks is so fun! and your sweater looks amazing. i love the colours so much. honestly, i love reading vlogs that deviate from reading all the time and focus on every day life. your kittens are growing so fast! i love them so much! and fritz remains a queen

[@katieisreading]

thank you so much, i was kind of questioning how much crocheting content i was putting in this vlog so i'm so glad to hear that!! and fritz does indeed remain the queen, no one can ever dethrone her (no matter how cute winnie and poppy are haha)!

[@cassandralynnreads]

This felt like one of my vlogs 💀 Where you say it's a reading vlog and then you talk about something else entirely for 2/3 of the video 😂 I love it. I must be rubbing off on you hehe

[@katieisreading]

i was just so excited i had to share😭 and you definitely are, i'm blaming this all on you...

[@saramustari3687]

I loved this blog! I was living for your crochet and twilight talks ❤️ can't wait to watch part 2 🤗

[@katieisreading]

[@lotsoflovedisha727]

[@MikiBaka1]

[@ax4volz364]

I love ur vibe Katie

[@Jess-dv6py]

Loving the vibes in this vlog! Your halloween/autumn themed jumper is so cute I really want to get into crocheting but I don't think I have the patience haha

[@katieisreading]

thank you!! and crocheting definitely takes a bit to get the hang of it, but once you get it down it's super easy and you can watch things or listen to audiobooks while you do it

[@lottasnook]

Love the vlog and Twilight talk 🤣 I can't wait to see the finished result! 😍

[@katieisreading]

thank you!!!🖤☺️

[@gerniahliburd1222]

I absolutely love the vibes of this vlog! 🥰👻

[@katieisreading]

thank you!!!😌🦇

[@Adi-sk2yt]

I am not reading anything spooky this summer, but still love to watch this video. Especially love the vibes, but speaking about twilight movies is fun too. 😂 Your cardigan is sooo gorgeous. ❤️

[@katieisreading]

that's fair! but thank you so much🖤🖤 and i will really take any excuse to talk about twilight haha!

[@MeeriMimosa]

I love halloween thankfully it’s coming soon

[@katieisreading]

yes! i'm so excited for halloween!!!

[@remarkablylisa]

As always I adore your vlogs and watch every one of them! This one was so cool to see you finish your cardigan or at least almost finishing. I'm not participating in summerween and I don't read too much horror but I definitely do read thrillers!!! Hopefully you can check out that genre too. I'm going to go watch part two now!! Btw your cats are so cute

[@katieisreading]

thank you so much lisa🥺 i always love reading your comments!!🖤🖤🖤

[@sophiex4152]

SUMMERWEEN ?!?!? thats exactly the occasion I need

[@katieisreading]

right?? i've been so excited about this!

[@leah676]

Hey Katie, I'm currently reading the Twilight series too! I finished the first book and I loved it, I couldn't put it down! I'm going to re-watch the Twilight movie today! My current read is New Moon and my thoughts on it so far is really good! I''m on chapter 13.

[@katieisreading]

ah i'm so glad you're enjoying it!! the series is just a really fun time

[@siriwressel]

this is so cozy and the cardigan looks so good!! also, it’s not a spooky book rec but you should definitely check out twin crowns! i think you’d really enjoy it! 🤗

[@katieisreading]

thank you!! i will definitely have to check out twin crowns, i looked it up and it seems like something i would really enjoy!

[@francis4291]

Hi Katie! Curiously, I haven't read Le Fanu's novel. I've seen Dreyer's Vampyr and its remake by Werner Herzog (with Kinski and Adjani), but I don't remember Sapphic leanings in Carmilla, though female vampires don't fret over a few sweet throats. I want to tell you that your vlog is hitting new heights once again. I am surprised by the optical and video quality of your Canon cameras. On my smartphone, it's super sharp and the colors are very beautiful. You are a girl full of qualities, I did not expect to find you crocheting. You have a sense of color before the computer. Your colors are very beautiful, the warm tones go well with the cold tone of the lichen-coloured wool. Nice cardigan, it looks great on you, and I also like your shirt over your T-Shirt. I'll tell you things clearly, when I watch your videos (especially this one and the previous one), it's Annie Hall's Diane Keaton doubled as a Jacqueline Bisset when you wear glasses and she plays a student in Philippe de Broca's film, The Magnificent. But of course you're still Katie. Infinitely Katie. Your static shots are stable, your lighting neat, your special effects are simple but effective. Kittens who turn their heads in sync, it's beautiful. The tabby cat may be their mother (?). Send them my hello, my cat is in the firmament but its molecules relay with its fellows on Earth. The section of wall covered with typewritten pages intrigues me, I wonder if it is a personal manuscript. I also like your large mirror. In this vlog, you use quite beautiful music in the background where choirs and piano intertwine (at the beginning). Could you tell me who the composer is, please? Thanks. I almost sent you this comment by e-mail but did not take the risk. I don't know how to make it short when I write, that's my problem. ✍️

Great vlog happy SummerWeen 🎃🍉📚🌈🦇

[@katieisreading]

thank you😌🦇👻

[@ashlyncook8657]

I think you’d really enjoy the graphic novel Fangs by Sarah Anderson if you haven’t already read it. It’s a light read with a spooky vibe just because it involves a love story between a vampire and werewolf. I am also going to read A Dowry of Blood by S.T Gibson this fall and I’m excited for it!

[@katieisreading]

i actually have read fangs and i absolutely adored it! and i've been meaning to read a dowry of blood, i hope you enjoy it!

[@libbysreadingcorner9564]

Loved the vlog, how do you remember to make B rolls clips for your vlogs?? I am not joining in on this round because I don't read a lot of spooky books, but some recs would be helpful thanks so much.. Can't wait for part 2. I wouldn't mind a long vlog from you...

[@tejaswinisureshkrishnan4228]

I've been rereading Twilight for the past one week and it is still good in my opinion 😄

[@katieisreading]

ah i can't wait to give it a reread soon!

[@_christen_]

you should make a vlog where you try and read really scary books to see if anything actually scares you

[@katieisreading]

i really like this idea... i might just have to, thanks!!

[@luciagarcia3843]

The girl from the well is how Spanish people call samara from The ring lol, I'm so interested in this book now

[@katieisreading]

really? thats so cool i had no idea!! hope you enjoy it if you pick it up

[@Julie_ao]

😍😍😍😍

[@Jess-dv6py]

Honestly I'm sad that I missed out on the nostalgic love for twilight. Cause I know if I read that series today at 19 years old I will probably hate it lol

[@katieisreading]

you should maybe try the first movie and go in with the expectation that it's really bad? i forced my roommate to watch it with me (it was her first time seeing it) last november and she really enjoyed the movie and started reading the book soon after! you still might hate it... but i feel like everyone should see the movie at least once lol

[@MeAsTeee]

Now I need Carmilla🥺

[@bluebear1238]

love the sweater!! is there a link for the steps of how i could make it as well?

[@katieisreading]

yes! i just linked it in the description

[@chillhoptunes2643]

Omg I love your cardigan, it’s so cool! I really want to get into crochet but have no clue how to do it. How did you learn to crochet? 💗💗

[@katieisreading]

thank you so much!! i learned everything about crochet from youtube videos, there are so many amazing channels out there that post really detailed videos for beginners!!

[@hannahsalvatore5586]

Love your videos!! Also have you read to kill a kingdom?

[@katieisreading]

thanks! and i haven't yet but i've heard good things!

[@JamieReads_1]

I have read The Haunted Mansion graphic novels so far and a Goosebumps. I started listening 2 The Ghost of Marlow House. I am enjoying what I have read so far. 👽👻💚

[@katieisreading]

thank you!!

[@craftyreads]

Unlike you, I get freaked out by horror books AND movies 😭

[@katieisreading]

oh no! i'm surprised scary books don't freak me out honestly because i really can't do scary movies

[@siriljen]

Never read twilight before but I have all of them on my shelf 😅 up for a buddy read? 😜🙃

[@katieisreading]

that is a crime my friend😳 if i were reading them any time soo i would be totally down for a buddy read but november is os far away😩 you should start reading them asap though they're so fun

[@siriljen]
