Finishing every book series I'm in the middle of, before the end of the year🎉reading journal update!

[@BrynnD]

You were spot on with your review about the 3rd housemaid. 🤣🤣🤣 and now you have me so excited to finally get to Fourth Wing because your review about Iron flame got me wanting to put everything to the side. 😂😂😂

[@tammymcghee4408]

I always look forward to your videos. Happy New Year!

[@joycewesley]

Thanks! I appreciate you watching and Happy New Year to you too! 🎉

[@craftylioness7430]

I’m so glad I found these book channels!!! You guys have really helped with new book recommendations. I read the first of the Finley Donovan series 😂! Loved it! Definitely have to try the others!

[@tinawonderfullymade]

Happy New Years friend!!!🎉 As soon as I seen a new vid u know I had to click lol I absolutely adore how u give your reviews…so calming and makes me want to read every dang book (even the fantasy lol)❤

[@PepperAnnT]

I get so happy when you upload! You’re so down to earth.. ❤❤😊 thank you for this New Year upload.

[@joycewesley]

You’re welcome! 🤗 This warms my heart. Thanks for the kind words and for watching!

[@livinglifewithjazz24]

Newbie over here 👋🏿 Subscribed 🩷 Great Video. Look forward to watching more ❤

[@sking3225]

Ok, I will go ahead and read the third book of housemaids…I too was hesitant because of the low rating…but I will go in like you said…with low expectations so that I can finish out the series!!

[@blossomramos]

I am LIVING for your reaction on Iron Flame. I loved both books so much and can't wait for the release of Onyx Storm. I looking forward to your thoughts on Onyx Storm because your not a fantasy girlie, your perspective will be interesting!!! 💓💓

[@chasc.taylor_reads]

Eeek! The cliffhanger at the end of Iron Flame 😮 I cannot wait for Onyx Storm to be released! 10/10 recommend graphic audio for fantasy books. Finlay and Vero are my fave comfort characters 😂 I’ve been back and forth on reading Beartown and it sounds like I need to stop dragging my feet! Happy New Year! 🎊 🎉

[@joycewesley]

Such a good cliffhanger! I will definitely try the graphic audiobook for Onyx Storm. Fin & Vero are such comfort characters. They feel like one of my girlfriends at this point lol. I love The Beartown series! It's filled with so much tragedy and heart. I'm obsessed with how FB tells stories. :)

[@TkTkayy]

Ok the way you spoke about the winners have me wanting to look into the series. Never read anything by Fredrik before.

[@MadamMaxine5]

This video was so fun to watch. I’ve read Beartown and loved it, but will continue when I’m ready to have my heart broken again. Finlay is so fun. I need to start the second one. HNY

[@joycewesley]

Aw, I’m glad you enjoyed it. Finlay D is soo much fun! I hope you enjoy the rest of the series. The Beartown series is sad, but there are lots of hopeful and inspirational moments sprinkled throughout. That’s a good one to tackle in the winter.

[@amymarie0314]

The regular audiobooks for Fourth Wing and Iron Flame are great, but the graphic audio?! Completely next level. I highly recommend!

[@joycewesley]

I knew it, because the regular books were so much fun. Thanks for sharing!

[@shalidarenee84]

I love your reading vlogs! Girl these books really be having you over there cracking up and giddy lol I am working on my 2025 reading journal setup right now. I think the last time you posted a video updating your journal it motivated me to update mine (2024 journal). I made good progress but I still have a ways to go lol smh

[@MizzInterpreted]

Even though I knew a certain character in The Winners was going to die Backman still had me ugly crying. 😢 fantastic series.

[@joycewesley]

It was so good! I miss the town and the charecters already.

[@lavenderlady7441]

hey joyce,its new years eve....and im here!😊

[@joycewesley]

Aww, I love it! Happy New Year!! Hope you enjoyed the video. 🤗

[@von20808]

You got me interested in Beartown. I'm glad you finished the last Housemaid book. If there is another series I won't read it. I'm done with Millie and her crazy family. You and your family have a Happy New Year. I will be right back here in 2025.

[@joycewesley]

LOL same! I don't plan to read anything by Freida McFadden this year. A break is needed! Beartown is such a good series. Check triggers warning! Thanks for watching! Happy New Year!

[@perfectlycoiffed05]

Sis…you do such a great job describing books and adding your own analysis. I love that for us 😊. Happy New Year🎉

[@joycewesley]

Thank you! :) Happy New Year!

[@TheNikki811]

Happy New Years🎉 I know when I watch your videos I’m going to have a good laugh! ❤ your personality! Enjoyed your reviews! I will have to pick up Iron Flame, I put it off so long due to the mixed reviews. I will add Beartown to my endless TBR! ❤

[@joycewesley]

Aww, yay! I love to hear it! Glad you enjoy the channel. Happy New Year!

[@elizajournals]

lol…. I absolutely love your channel 😂😂😂. You crack me up.

[@joycewesley]

Haha! I’m so glad! I try my best to keep it fun 😊

[@AmbercollegeA]

Happy New Year ❤

[@joycewesley]

Happy New Year, Amber! 🎉

[@highrawvegan]

I'm watching your video as I'm making my green juices for the day - seeing that banana bread almost tripped me - lol! Please provide a trigger warning for the fluffy folks watching - lol! (jk)

[@shanielgray6296]

right it took you most of to get to the thriller

[@joycewesley]

It really did, which was insane.

[@rachelbolick]

Hey Friend, Happy Tuesday/New Year Eve. It’s a huge accomplishment to finish all of your book series that you’ve started in 2024. I have been best friends with my best friend since middle school (about 14 years) and we text everyday but we don’t get to call or hang out as often. 🥲🥰

[@joycewesley]

Wow! Such a long friendship. 🫶🏽Glad you guys still maintain text! Happy New Year! Thanks for watching and commenting. 🎉🤗
