I think if we've learned anything today, it's that An Unkindness Of Magicians is your favorite cover and your favorite book of 2018 was Rebecca. Nailed it!

[@TheBookRefuge]

Corey!!!!! Great job! Lols, i knew you would pretty good though, i believed in you!

[@TheBookRefuge]

Also, i was definitely yelling at you a bit in encouragement! Haha!

[@callmeaftercoffee]

😂😂😂

[@kristiturningthepage320]

This was so much fun to watch! I was definitely yelling at my screen for favorite cover of hers tho..lol.. good job Korey! That's so sweet and cool that you know her so well and actually pay attention to what she loves! High five!

[@Livingeidolon]

I feel like you got robbed; you deserved that A++ man!

[@merphynapier42]

Me: I had to tell you that cover was wrong twice! Korey: Well that's just cause I wasn't paying attention before. That logic tho.

[@JTYooper]

One of the worst mistakes I made with my wife was after she told me a longish recap of her day. When she was done, even though I was listening, I jokingly said "What was that honey, I wasn't listening..."

[@randalthor2859]

But! His beard is great. So forgive the man! xD

[@sethfinberg348]

"I don't think you have one book to rule them all" ... underrated comment on your favorite book.

[@bkninja3172]

Makes sense to me

[@irvinggonzaleza]

Get you a man like Korey who listens to you, but like not really.

[@maries2768]

Korey is so funny! I love how eager he was to prove that he knows you well, it's so cute!

[@merphynapier42]

He was Soo excited to film this 😂

“I’m gonna ace this !” -1st sticky - “..this is stupid” 🤣🤣 He was so persistent about not using those lifelines

[@shadowblackheart7556]

You two are so sweet together! It was obvious your husband really cares about your hobby and was happy to do this for you, which is awesome. You really are couples' goals.

[@merphynapier42]

Awe thank you so much 💗

[@nihad-m]

Merphy : I was really excited about those lifelines!! Korey: But why?! Merphy : because I was!!! Me:🤦

[@KentuckyMan30]

I still don't understand why! Haha.

@@KentuckyMan30 my suspicions were that it makes it more exciting/ I'd want to prove how well my friends know me

[@MichaelWilliams-nt6wy]

She tried hard to get him to use one lmao

[@Lightning_Lance]

Because she took the time to set it up and thought it was going to be fun to involve more people. But he didn't need them lol (he just got confused by the two Sanderson books, I think he would have had it if it wasn't for that).

[@Sona-lh8mz]

Ok but where do you find a husband who would deal with your bookish interests? I need to know ASAP.

[@merphynapier42]

Sams Club :P

[@samreddig8819]

Any ideas where to find bookish girls though?

It helps if you are hot and a good woman overall :) The hobbies are not really that crucial to a man.

I love how seriously he's thinking about the answers!

Alright Korey! Write a Book. You have the skills Right there.😅😂😂

[@fictionalives]

i love how confident he was omggg

[@tyd2877]

You 2 are so stinkin adorable together! Bless his heart.

[@surfpassion19]

Your husband seems like such a thoughtful man - he actually tries to figure out the answers based on what he knows about you rather than just guessing! This video reminds me that I need to find a life partner who reads books. I think it's so cute that this is something you guys can share! I

[@catarinathebookworm]

I just love how he does not want help because he feels like he knows you so well. This was precious.

[@elisemoser]

This was so much fun! I’d love to see more collabs with you guys together.

[@Shaegeeksout]

BUT THERE'S MORE THAN ONE SANDERSON BOOK! I kept saying this over and over again! Lol silly hubby. He still did great though.

[@KentuckyMan30]

I know, right?!? I can't for the life of me understand why that didn't dawn on me in the moment! I blame it on all the cameras, lights and pressure! Ha!

[@everestcanyon5647]

Technically, I feel that if he got the "Favorite Author" one on the wrong Brandon Sanderson book, he still should have got the point, even if it means that the "Favorite Book of Last Year" one would have been wrong. I mean, it's still correct, he would have just killed one bird with two stones.

[@Lightning_Lance]

@@everestcanyon5647 yeah agreed

[@johnpulliam395]

Merphy, appreciate this man hugely. He just spent 15 minutes or more (hard to tell exactly how long, since you fast forwarded a few times) exploring your mind with you, and seemed like he would've been happy staying there as long as you wanted. That's huge, and--i bet--fairly uncommon even among life partners. Hold him tight and cherish him, as he clearly does you. p.s. You're a cute couple, wish you both a life of joy.

[@auneakeffect]

its not uncommon lol, this is just what normal healthy relationships look like

[@henrywayne5724]

auneakeffect Yeah, normal healthy relationships are not common at the present age.

[@dilaisy_loone2846]

You too are so cute together! What an amazing couple!

[@merphynapier42]

Thank you!

[@urty24]

That’s probably the best video you’ve ever done. You guys had me cracking up the whole time.

[@alzayia164]

This was hilarious. Especially the montages and Merphy constantly insisting on using a lifeline. It must be hell trying to decide on a movie

[@Miracle_Max]

This was so cute and wholesome

[@TheBookRefuge]

Way to go Corey! Superior to all other book husbands! Killing it!

[@amberboston7105]

I’m sitting here watching almost yelling at my phone “there’s 2 Sanderson books!” 😂😂😂

[@KentuckyMan30]

Haha!! I was yelling the same thing while I was watching it back afterwards! I don't know why I was so thrown off by that. It's so obvious in retrospect!

[@zwcook]

This is convicting me of being a bad bookish husband. I would've done worse for my wife's picks.

[@tracey_bay]

This was so much fun! I watched this kind of video in Lala's channel and when I saw that you did it too I was like 'yeeeesss' hahahaha your husband was so invested in the game.

[@lostinabookcase3796]

I see why An Unkindness of Magicians tripped Korey up - that cover is beautiful! But Rebecca has always been a favorite of mine too :)

[@KentuckyMan30]

I love both of those as well. I like the more pure white tones of Rebecca, but I love the overall design of Unkindness a little more I think. Both are neck and neck though. -Korey

[@VanessaMarieBooks]

This was awesome! I love how determined he was: "I don't need their help," lol.

[@kyliecrawfishin]

This is adorable and also helpful for my TBR list. IM WITH YOU KOREY GOOD JOB

[@abibliophobe2731]

If I did this with my boyfriend he'd fail. I talk to him about books I read but I read so many that I don't think he could keep them straight.

[@henriksorensen82]

He was actually right about who your favorite author is on the first try, but it was on the wrong book that he put the note (but still Brandon Sanderson) so I think he should get back 10 points for it.

[@ZyTob]

It weirdly annoys me that you gave him a wrong for favorite author. Sanderson literally wrote both books, he was technically right! ;D fun video. :)

[@auntkaz422]

Agreed. If Sanderson is the favorite author either book would be correct.

[@JeantheSecond]

Same.

[@manaalsidd]

Is it weird that I knew the answers to all of them before he even guessed it? 😄😂 You two are so b’ful with each other ❤️ Adorable video 💕

[@merphynapier42]

Hahaha!! I love that you know it!

[@GolDGreg]

Awww you have a good family. Y’all will be good adoptive parents.

3:23 "You're screwing this up, not me!" Hahaha I loved that Hey I might do this with my brother!

[@Bookables]

Loved this! Your husband knows your reading tastes and history so well! My husband. Would literally be the worst at this. Like he would get maybe 1/15 right 😂😂 go Corey! You did awesome!

[@dougsundseth6904]

The way the scoring system is set up, if you use a lifeline, it will cost 20 points. If you get an answer wrong, it will cost you 20 points. The only way it makes sense to use a lifeline is if it _nets_ you more than one correct answer. As described, the lifeline points are "bonus" points, so 100% = 240 points (all answers correct). Therefore, if you get only three wrong and use no lifelines, you get 100%. With that schema, never use a lifeline. And also, since Sanderson was actually correct, even though the sticker was put on a book of his that you didn't intend, the initial score would have been 260/240, or 108.33%.

[@tzofiastrey9214]

"Why do you want me to use a lifeline?" "I just did" Solid logic. Great video!

[@luciameetsbooks]

Hahahaha omg this was so cutee!! 😍 I was all the time telling Korey to pick the sanderson's book for your favorite of last year as if he could hear me 😂

[@KentuckyMan30]

Haha! It just wasn't sinking in that there were TWO Sanderson books. The pressure had me frazzled!

[@luciameetsbooks]

[@ciannacoleman5125]

I have that set of LOTR and really love the feel of them (obviously the books are great too). I am surprised to see Just Ella on your shelf, I read it when I was like 12 and hated it and have not seen basically anyone who owns it on booktube. You do have so many amazing/I can’t wait to get to books

[@Salamon2]

You two are adorable together. It's rather obvious you two are well matched and complement each other nicely. And as a guy he wasn't ever going to go for the lifelines on this topic--that would be him admitting he doesn't know you as well as he feels he should, which would be a big relationship taboo for him, clearly.

[@blackenedtilldeath]

If I don’t find myself someone as committed as HIM (about what books I like and which cover I prefer most)to spend my entire life with I’m gonna be pissed.
