February Wrap Up!

[@kevinkelly_]

I've seen Furiously Happy everywhere and I really wanna read it!! :D

[@Rayraysmakeup]

you inspired me to get red glasses and i love them!

[@LoveSelena26]

Hell yeah! My hair used to be reaaaallly long and I recently cut it short like her's. Best decision of my life.

[@aquagamer1212]

+Noreen Nz I wanted my hair like that. It's a very popular style made even more popular by Taylor Swift.

[@LoveSelena26]

+AquaSimmer ​ i was actually inspired by Lily Collins and Emma Stone. Taylor's is shorter I think...

[@aquagamer1212]

Noreen Nz Lilly has her hair like that? I didn't know that's awesome.

[@LoveSelena26]

I know right! AquaSimmer ​

[@royaevereadsbooks]

"The Real Housewives of the 18th Century" I love that hahaha.

[@ThePhantomofBooktube]

+royaevereads same i burst out laughing and my family was like not so loud XDDD.

[@oXtatsukoXo]

The school for good and evil is one of my favorite series! It has been optioned for a movie and the author is doing the screen play. It's on imdb too!

[@helenejeppesen2133]

A lot of people have "Pride & Prejudice" as their favourite Jane Austen book - I actually have "Persuasion" (as well as "Northanger Abbey") :-)

[@KelsiReads]

"Let's Pretend This Never Happened" is the best audiobook I've ever listened to. Definitely the best way to experience that book.

[@aftercollege3437]

Loved your wrap up! I feel like everyone is rereading Harry Potter, I think that I need to pick those up again soon :)

[@lostbookthoughts774]

I think the audiobook narration for Furiously Happy made it even better. I really loved her narration and the book!

[@kailaelizabeth]

I read This is Where it Ends because of you! And I loved it. Thank you!

[@marialooksaround]

I read the Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children trilogy in the first two weeks of february and after that I had to study for my exams, so these were the only three books I read. But that's okay because I liked them really much. The idea of incorporating peculiar vintage photographs into the story really inspired me! I always liked looking at the vintage photographs, I love the old photo albums my grandma has and I always wanted to buy photos at flea markets but I couldn't think of anything I could do with them without destroying them. Now I have an idea! Finding interesting photos and using them as inspiration for writing short stories gonna be so much fun!! The Passenger, The Bookshop Book and the Soviet Space Dogs are waiting to be read next. I'm excited!

[@MettelLoves]

The introduction to this video is pretty much exactly what I would say about my month.. busy working, short month, and I too read 7 books!

[@corinneoreilly1639]

I'm so glad more people are starting to read The School For Good And Evil!

[@emmaww9049]

School for Good and Evil is actually becoming a movie! I think, if I remember right, the author himself is actually helping to write the script.

[@PumpkinMozie]

thanks for not hiding when you work with a company! Seriously, I appreciate the honesty. Nothing worse than insidious advertising ~_~ Also, yay for rereading HP!! I also get the same happy, giddy feeling every time hehehe

[@misfitmia]

Such a great month of readings! I'm impressed! You go Reagan, 2016 looks amazing for you so far

[@elephantesnowy]

I legitimately happy cried my way through illustrated Harry Potter this month. Rereading those books just puts me in an oddly good mood.

[@jaievi76]

I read Furiously Happy in February as well. I laughed out loud so many times. I loved it! And that cover is one of my all time faves! 😀

[@KirstyWardBooks]

I definitely need to read Persuasion, it has been a good few months since I picked up an Austen novel and I think I'd overlooked it a bit.

[@disakland4714]

Another great video thank you! You are one of my top three booktubers, I just get so happy every time you uoload another video! I bought those amazingly gourgeous Austen books myself, they are so pretty!

[@Nikki360PDX]

The audiobook of This is Where it Ends is AMAZING. After listening to it I'm actually going to buy the book cause it made me love it that much

[@lottelovinbooksclaridge4061]

Persuasion is my favourite Austin novel. The 2007 BBC TV adaptation with Rupert Penry-Jones as Captain Wentworth is wonderful :-)

[@confessionofabookdragon]

One of the reasons why I love Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is because Luna is introduced because she is one of my favorite Harry Potter character and one of my all time favorite fictional characters EVER!

[@alishareadsbooks]

I only read 3 books in Feb. life got in the way a little bit. Haha. I read Stars Above, November 9, and Me Before You! Loved them all!

[@befuddledpanda8770]

Yay! I'm really glad you liked Furiously Happy. It's my book club pick for this month. I can't wait to get to it.

[@ThePoptimist]

I just need to get over it and get on the Rothfuss tip. A week doesn’t go by without someone mentioning him on booktube it seems. Really enjoyed Lawson’s first book - need to pick up Furiously Happy.

[@jennifervennall8679]

Interesting selection and now I want to read them all...!

[@Jessica-mj5pd]

I really love your glasses. I have a wide head and I can't wear mine, so I've basically resigned myself to being blind lol.

[@chillinlikeavillain390]

the 2008 (?) version of persuasion is honestly beautiful and one of my favourite book to movie adaptions. i continue to hear amaing thing about furiously happy but i think im saving it for the right time.

[@ASimpleCupofTea]

Persuasion is one of my favourite Austens. It's quite short and charming: read it in one sitting :)

[@StitchInTime]

Sweet Temptation by Wendy Higgins Oblivion by Jennifer L. Armentrout Talon by Julie Kagawa Bone Crossed and Silver Bourne by Patricia Briggs.

[@melissakaye840]

I read 5 books! For my book club I read An Unquiet Mind by Kay Redfield Jamison. I also read Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie, The Sky is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson (I HIGHLY recommend this one if you haven't already read it) and Scarlet and Cress by Marissa Meyer.

[@lillimol]

I only read two books (sob): "Those who leave and those who stay" by Elena Ferrante and "Tatiana and Alexander" by Paullina Simons!

[@ayabalisany5918]

I read eleven books this month. I reread the whole Percy Jackson and the Olympians series and also read the demigod files and the sword of summer. The other books that I read were crown of midnight, the dream thieves, rebel spring and cinder. My favorite was definitely rebel spring by Morgan Rhodes

[@HannahBihnana]

I also did surprisingly well this month! 8 books (2 were audiobooks though), with a lot of stuff going on in school! I was so surprised and impressed with myself! woo hoo!

[@noannellesky9360]

Woaw! That's an impressive reading month! :D Also: the way you pronounced Marieke Nijkamp's name was pure gold! :'D It's always funny to me to hear people from another language trying to guess how words are pronounced :) (Btw: you can go on to her website, she has a sound recording of how to pronounce her name on it).

[@sandyreadsalot]

The School of Good and Evil sounds really interesting! I need to pick it up!

[@WhitneyChakara]

Feb was slow for me I only read two books: On basilisk Station and Daughter of Smoke and Bone. Enjoyed the first one more than I thought I would but was really surprised i didn't like DSB. This month I plan on finishing up The Fifth Season by NKJ, Mistborn the final Empire both are audiobooks. I also recently downloaded the audiobook of Library at Mount Char which I think you hauled. Can't wait to listen to it.

[@chelseas1346]

Have you heard of the novel Hate List? It deals with a school shooting as well and was honestly an amazing book that really affected me. If you have any interest in another school shooting boy this one handles that topic fantastically.

[@inthelightofahighstorm1204]

I really hated the school for good and evil, mainly because of its ideas of what a friendship should be and how it implies your appearance represents the soul and I personally didn't think it is suitable for young kids. However, I can understand why a lot of people did love it because it is quite action packed. I'm super interested in Curse of the Sphinx, sounds so interesting :)

[@tovaportmann]

Same I read 4 books The Furiously Happy cover is amazingly hilarious!!! The Cursed Child cannot come fast enough. And Yes Cho and Harry make Alec Lightwood looked skilled flirt. This Where it ends sounds like an amazing book that I need to read.

[@natalieemma5688]

Your order of the phoenix cover is beautiful!!! Damn americans always get the good covers!

[@ThyBookie]

I love the School for Good and Evil!

[@ohhthatskellie]

I'm currently reading the School for Good and Evil and I'm liking it so far, even though it's a bit slow for me

[@MissScarfaholic]

I read 5 books this month and I'm so proud! Wonder by RJ Palacio and Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard were my favourites (:

[@monticuee]

I read Everything Everything by. Nicola Yoon. SOOOOOOO GOOOD!!!!

[@LucePratt]

If you like classics, you should pick up some Thomas Hardy! I recommend Far From The Madding Crowd, it has some crazy tragic drama, it is brilliant.

[@amaniamiller]

Speaking of Harry Potter, when I'm watching your videos my attention immediately goes to the hole in your box set of your Harry Potter paperbacks to see which one you are currently reading. ^_^ I need to re read all of them...

[@shelbygregory5744]

literally love those glasses {so} much

[@moniquecasarez861]

I can't wait for the new book of Herry potter

[@emmamilliken8634]

*Harry

[@moniquecasarez861]

Lol thank you I jus relized I spell it wrong thank you

[@anuja.deshpande]

In February I read: I'll give you the sun Aristotle and dante... The wrath and the dawn Red queen The glass sword I also re read a Harry Potter book..the 6th one :) Always nostalgic.. and I just started 'The clockwork Angel'' ..

[@thebookishnerd24]

Persuasion is sounding good to me, I have not read it yet, but it sounds really good. And I have been wanting to rereading Harry Potter as well, but I also have sooooo many other books that I have yet to read and I read really slowly, hahaha.

[@EmmieLouDraws]

I read Persuasion last year and loved it!

[@katiecharles8890]

One of the best books that I read this month was "Lies We Tell Ourselves" by Robin Talley. I did make a quick video about it. Bit it was so good, taking place in 1959 during the integration of schools, it was such a interesting read.

[@joywoolley5883]

I had been in a reading slump for most of February and I didn't really start reading until I started An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir, so that was all I read this month. IT was a fantastic book though.

[@katieandaaron1919]

You're making me wish I was over my reading slump.

[@nataliatakase2315]

The books i read in February are: Angelfall crown of midnight Heir of fire cinder scarlet cress since you've been gone Fangirl Percy Jackson and the lightning thief ( FINALLY ) Percy Jackson and the sea of monsters We were liars The 5th wave. I really enjoyed most of the books i read this month, maybe apart from 2 of 3, but otherwise, it's been a really good reading month for me, since in January i only read 4 books, which i didn't even enjoy that much. I doubt it that I will ever again read 12 books in a month, but for now, this is my record.

[@SoulStainedInk]

Order of the Phoenix is my favorite Harry Potter book...its a close run but yeah... I read Curio in February after seeing your review. I also read a few graphic novels and Truthwitch.

[@rydersings]

Ive been on a series rampage! I read the entire Vampire Academy in January and now in Febuary I've started The Mortal Instruments and The Infernal Devices (I'm so late on these bandwagons but I'm coming!!!!)

[@kaiju_k5042]

Sounds like an intense video, I read the Sphinx book in Feb thanks to you...and a Harry Potter re-read sounds fun, ironically enough the fifth book is the only one I never finished, and not for a specific reason so I shall read it again.

[@confessionofabookdragon]

Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns) by Mindy Kaling All for a Sister (All For # 3) Allison Pittman The Sleeper and the Spindle by Neil Gaiman (very short book about a remake of Snow White and Sleeping Beauty; 69 pages) Life on the Road- Gloria Steinem Slavery and Public History: The Tough Stuff of American Memory by James Horton (read this for my Public History class) The Fangirl's Guide to the Galaxy: A Handbook for Girl Geeks by Sam Maggs (Such a great short book about being a Nerd/Fangirl) The Color Purple by Alice Walker Two Renaissance Book Hunters: The Letters of Poggius Bracciolini to Nicolaus De Niccolis (Read this book for my Renaissance class)

[@luciacanali9832]

So glad you loved The School of Good and Evil ! I read it in December and ir was amazing ^^ PS: the bbc version of Persuasion is uploaded in youtube if you want to check it

[@librarytears]

I've read Emma by Jane Austen which honestly wasn't my favorite but Persuasion sounds so interesting! And it's been forever since I've reread Harry Potter!! I need to do that!

[@emmakaren7459]

Northanger Abbey, Reagen, so lovely, my favourite Jane Austen so far c:

[@laurabambrey5858]

Great vid! I finally read The Fault In Our Stars- and I'm still in the mourning period for that book. Absolutely beautiful. I would really like to read This Is Where It Ends- I've seen it mentioned a couple of times now and am curious to see how the topic is dealt with. Lx

[@naroa1989]

I also reread The order of the phoenix, and also The half-blood prince. I'm currently reading The deathly hallows and the emotions...

[@bookerine8562]

I only read 4 books in February ( i actually have filmed a wrap-up video!) but this month i just have so many exciting books to read that i don't even know where to start :D

[@MelanieKilsby]

I am really wanting to get some Jane Austen! Thank you for your review, I appreciate it :D

[@sahibamann8079]

The only new book I read was A Gathering of Shadows by V.E. Schwab and it basically blew me away. Oh my god, it was like chocolate infused with brandy or something. I've been trying to get my hands on The School for Good and Evil but every time I go to the bookstore, they only have the sequels and never the first one so I just bang my head and come back which is quite disappointing

[@Corneliasundberg]

I only read three books in February: City of Glass, 4,75/5 stars. Heir of Fire, 3,75/5 stars. The Perks of Being a Wallflower, 4,5/5 stars.

[@wm8010]

+Cornelia Sundberg Perks is one of my favorite books, glad you like it you random stranger on the internet!

[@DanicaAndVictoria]

Does The School of Good and Evil remind anyone else of Ever After High a little?

[@evi948]

DanicaAndVictoria I am late,but yes it does! 😂

[@hannaho9471]

I'm rereading Harry Potter one a month too, so i getcha!

[@sammylouise40]

I read Persuasion in Feb. too! It was the last Jane Austen I needed to read. Also, have you ever read Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult? It's about a school shooting too. I love Jodi Picoult's books.

[@meringeorge756]

along with the BBC version of persuasion watch the 2007 movie. it was really wonderful.

[@rabiatulxx]

I read 2 books The Falling Kingdom and Outlander and im currently reading Dragonfly in Amber..

[@lydiagrace495]

I heard that the author said that the movie for the school for good and evil comes out Christmas 2017. I may be wrong but that's what I heard

[@Cassisabeast]

The Real Housewives of the 18th century! I died!

[@BasicallyBrittx]

I also reread Harry Potter 5 this month and again... I LOVED it. But seriously, I don't like Cho at all! So glad that their romance was so awkward, because that means that Cho is finally out of the picture!

[@tinkerspell4850]

you're makin' me wanna read Persuasion again....

[@itske9033]

This is where it ends is a novel by a dutch author, and that's where I come from. But I really liked the way how you pronouced the name because we pronouce it very different. But I read it too and I'm really glad you found it intresting. Greeting from the Netherlands :)

[@Marylovesfashion]

You should read the Captive Price trilogy!!

[@Entspannungskatze]

Have you read "The Song of Achilles"? I think you would really like it if you like greek mythology. It is about Achilles and his best friend/lover Patroclus and it's so beautiful and addictive.

[@mcorrales87]

Reagan, can you please do a video on how you decide what to rate a book? I'm super curious to find out how you decide between giving a book 4 or 4.5 stars as opposed to 5 etc. I always have a hard time rating my books on goodreads because I either LOVE what I read and want to rate everything 5 stars or just thought it was ok and think it was a 3 stars but then feel guilty for being so harsh if only one aspect of the book made me not enjoy it as much lol I'm just wondering what other people's process is when it comes to ratings.

[@louistomliinson]

I reread HP 1-3 and the deathly hallows this month and they're incredible as always, it's been a few months since I read one so I need to brush up...on a side note, I think it's so funny that the Order of the Phoenix is your favorite, because it's always been my least favorite ahhaha.

[@mollymiskeen]

As always, love the video! What nailpolish colour are you wearing? Its beautiful!

[@saybbabe2184]

i read 5 books in february and they were really gr8 books .slated trilogy(there r three books in the triolgy) .the fifth wave .red queen(OMG THIS BOOK KILLED ME ITS SOO HEARTBREAKING U NEED TO READ IT!!)

[@michaelmessina3766]

A great middle grade series is The Land Of Stories by Chris Colfer!

[@Amanda-nq6mw]

I finished the Gemma Doyle trilogy by Libba Bray, Nimona and the first volume of Amulet (among other things) :) glad it was a good reading month. I'm definitely gonna pick up Curse of the Sphinx

[@ThyBookie]

Did you like the Gemma Doyle Trilogy? I read that a few years ago and loved it.

[@Amanda-nq6mw]

Yes! I loved it so much :) there were so many good messages that I don't see in many newer YA books. Plus, Libba Bray knows how to write mysteries and complex characters

[@IndianBooktuber]

Awesome choice of books. I couldn't read that much in Feb. Finished a book by Indian author (romance) - logically stupid, that's love. That's it. Now I am feeling bad. I should have read more. :(

[@emilyschrag2470]

I read the warrior heir, the wizard heir, the dragon heir, the enchanter heir, wolf by wolf, starflight, curio, passenger, Eleanor and park, fangirl, and the carnivorous carnival Yeah I read alot

[@hayflake92ify]

I really want to read This is Where it Ends. I read 19 minutes by Jodi Picoult (which you should check out) because it has the same feelings that you were describing about this book. It was so good and I cried a ton while reading this book and haven't been able to pick it up again because of that.

[@arelladorcas]

you should read the second book of the school for good and evil

[@LinaVlogMTW]

This is where it ends sounds so interesting, especially because of how important the topic is! I am every curious though of how the author managed to write a whole book on a period of time of barely 40 minutes!! souns like a challenge for an author

[@ThePhantomofBooktube]

+Meet the world I haven't read the book but I think having the story told thro 4 different povs helps in the story only being about 55 minutes.

[@BooksandBlushes]

I'm really trying to get into classics, but it's so hard for me!

[@emmamilliken8634]

Order of the Pheonix isn't my favorite but it's very good. It took me a long time to get through it

[@DontHaveaDegreeinReading]

I'm reading Emma by Jane Austen and an not enjoying it as much as I thought I would. I love Pride and Prejudice and Persuasion, but Emma just isn't doing it for me. OOTP had always been my favorite because I also love angsty Harry!

[@TheReadingPuppet]

I just won Furiously Happy in a giveaway. I can't wait till I get it. I love the cover. it's so cute. :)

[@HanaEek]

If you're a sucker for greek mythology you should definitely check out The Song Of Achilles!! Especially if you're ever looking to expand your lgbtq+ reads! I literally am always recommending it to anyone that enjoys retellings of classic stories! :)

[@Nadia_Guadalupe]

I just received that book in that mail! So excited to read it😍

[@SleepingBakery]

The way you Marieke Nijkamp makes me cringe every single time 😅 I know it's gonna come and I brace myself for it but it hits me every time haha. It's funny how names like that are so common in Dutch and are so difficult for people who speak English. My name is Femke and people really struggle with it 😂 I feel so butchered every time hahaha

[@SleepingBakery]

*the way you pronounce .. Good job on writing me 👍🏼

[@galaxseeu._.5951]

Persuasion sounds like The Great Gatsby.

[@Rainbowjellybean2003]

I read 7 books to
