Spoiler alert! JFK dies in 11/22/63

[@faithfultotheKing]

WHAT?!?!

[@booklover6963]

I was in 8th grade music class when they told us.

[@Orang3_fatty24]

Guess I’m not buying now. It’s a big book and you totally spoiled it!

[@G0bl1nzz]

NOOOOOO!!! Why does everyone have to spoil everything for me..😔😔

[@simonedwards9450]

That is actually a spoiler as the book is about going back to try and stop the assassination

[@horonin]

Glad I'm not alone! I am in 4 books right now too, and I kind of dig doing it that way.

[@Narutotaku93]

I relate to this issue. As a mood reader, I often find myself reading 8+ books at a time. I'll jump from book to book, and friends often tell me I'm crazy for it. Currently, I'm in the middle of 11 books.

[@Rainydayscozyreads]

I'm the same way. 😂

[@nenyeo6090]

11? Lmao how don’t you get confused. 😂

The ending of 11/22/63 is so good! 🥲 Great job whittling down your TBR. You've made me so curious about that secret book!

[@trensshawndy9595]

I've always read like 4 to 5 books 📚 at a time. That's just how my mind works. Awesome there's bookgeeks like me lol 😂 Your one of my favorite Booktubers ❤

My mind could never keep up with that many books at once. I have to start one and finish it. You’re on master level!

[@elainedejong2806]

I love having about 3 or 4 books on the go. I always want to be in the middle of one before I finish another.

[@ndehadlsr]

This video popped up at the perfect time because I'm currently reading 7 books at the same time. Which is way more than I usually read at one time. 😂😅

[@angelaholmes8888]

Wow I never done that I'm currently reading 3 books

[@ndehadlsr]

@@angelaholmes8888 I think I got a bit overboard because they are on different platforms. A mix of physical copy, on kindle, and on my phone on Libby(audiobooks).😆I wouldn't recommend. I'm now trying to catch up and finish them because next month I have 2 big books for a buddy read and a book club book.😆

[@angelaholmes8888]

​@@ndehadlsrI read physical books I'm comfortable doing that

[@ndehadlsr]

@angelaholmes8888 My Kindle is for on-the-go and my phone(audiobooks) is for when I'm doing things and can only listen.

[@borzica]

lol I don’t know how you all do it, but I always stay hard headed and determined to read one book at a time. It actually helps me to read more often because once I finish the current book I get to start a new one.

[@lizc.214]

Haha, I'm the same, very rarely do I have 2 books going at the same time😂 But yeah, it pushes me to finish the current read faster.

[@borzica]

[@angelwalker979]

I used to read 2 or 3 at once but as i get older i can't keep up. I only read one at a time now,but every so often i might have a book of short stories next to my current read. Love your channel! 📚📚📚

I’m not at all a history person. Never have been. But this video made me buy Lovely War. It’s currently on my TBR list!

[@BigJack78]

I watched u for a few weeks now and u got me back into reading can’t stop watching u love the vids

[@PageTurnersbooktube523]

always the best suprise to see you or you wife release a new video.

[@lisasstitchingandsuch]

Well you did it. After being subscribed to you for 6 months I finally succumbed and bought my first Stephen King to read: 11/22/63. I love reading history and historical fiction so it seemed like the right one to start with. I had a short list of 11/22/63, Pet Semetary or On Writing. 11/22/63 was my first choice though and I had looked on every bookshop's online catalogue (in my country) to see if they had it in stock and it seemed they didn't so I would have to order it in at some point. Then today I decided to treat myself to a new book for the weekend and was browsing the shelves and There. It. Was. I asked at the counter why it wasn't listed as being available and they said if there's only one or two copies they don't in case the stock take is incorrect or the book is misplaced etc. It was meant to be!!!!

[@tobybavin5972]

Can't believe I've just stumbled across your content. I love it, keep it up!

[@GetExercised]

Your excitement for books is contagious. I've added several of your reads to my tbr. 👍

[@andrews.3089]

Man, I love your passion for reading! It’s infectious! I added you on Goodreads, and I read It based off your review/vlog. I am falling down a Mr. King rabbit hole now. And I binge watch all your videos. Keep up the amazing content my brother in Christ!

[@xLadyDushi]

Love the humor in your video’s 🎉

[@ShivangiBhasin]

Ian, you have the BEST taste in books, I feel so inspired every time I watch you chomp down these chonkers

[@abreesue]

I just finished Lovely War today and that PART had me STRESSING. I loved seeing your reactions because I reacted the same way 😂

[@openlybookish]

The music paired with your reaction was perfect Ian. ☺️🤣😄

[@FantasyBookFather]

Literally wait all week for your videos! Currently mr Mercedes. You definitely made me more interested in king

[@MiuLicious]

Sometimes when people wave in videos I can't help but wave back. I waved back at the beginning of this video

[@Lanieeeee]

OHHHH GOOD I'M NOT ALONE. I'm currently reading five books: one memoir, one fiction, one self-help/life advice, one fantasy (I'm reading it to my sisters), and one for school. And I read SO SLOW SO I FEEL CHAINED IVE BEEN READING THE MEMOIR SINCE FEBRUARY. eHEM anyway this is my first time watching your videos and your energy matches mine so well i subbed immediately LOL

[@The-Biblio-Nerd]

Just popping in to say that I love all your videos! I get so excited when I see you or Ashlynn publish a new one. Love all the collab videos that you two do. You both are amongst my favorite Booktubers of all time!

Hi Ian! I just want to say that I've recently subscribed to your channel and I'm loving your videos! I love your attitude, your taste in books, the way you present yourself, it's really refreshing. I'm always excited when I see you've uploaded a new video! I'm Diana from Portugal, and I just wanted to say "hi" 😊

[@iangubeli]

Hello!!

[@FailedGod1]

Glad you rated 11/22/63 6 stars it's my favorite king book. I'm reading 4 books right now, too. I know your pain. I have a large tbr but struggle to pick my next book and end up reading an old favorite.

[@cherrytea_afterdark]

Glad we can put this on to watch while we read our tbr list. Mine is currently at nineteen or twenty, but it’s slowly ticking down 😂

[@TheBeardedBookBeast]

Love your vlogs man! Thanks for sharing your reads with us. Im starting Mcammons Matthew Corbett series soon!

[@IanTerronesReads]

11/22/63 was the first stephen king book I read, thoroughly enjoyed it, I'm currently reading the dark tower now and enjoying it a lot

[@lionesslio]

I almost always have an audiobook and a book on my kindle going, if not, it’s only because i just finished one of them and haven’t yet decided which to start 😂 and am scared of even trying more books at the same time however i think if they were all different genres it could work 😅 impressive what you did here

[@BetsyAndTheBooks]

Hi Ian! That’s the same way I felt about final girls by Riley sager! I want to read 11\22\63 and Lovely War they are both on my tbr. Loved this video! As always happy reading!

[@hilary1014]

So excited that you loved 11/22/63! I too rated it six stars and it's the best book I've read all year. I still think about George & Sadie and that ending made me cry. If you ever do a re read I do highly recommend listening to the audio while you follow along :)

[@Quietfoo]

I’m new to Stephen King books, seems like you enjoy his writing a lot so I’d love a recommendation on which one of his books I should start next. I’m currently finishing ‘The Eyes of The Dragon’ I have Needful Things, The Gunslinger, The Tommyknockers, The Stand, The Dark Half, The Talisman, Rose Madder, From a Buick 8, and Bag of Bones. Let me know what you’d recommend next!

[@iangubeli]

As much as I love The Stand, I would say jump in to Needful Things!

[@Quietfoo]

@@iangubeli Awesome, thank you!

[@QueenViolet8]

Awesome video I just started reading The Stand as one who watched the original cbs tv series back in the day I always wanted to read the book and I must say I have read Carrie it’s my fave Steven King is amazing at bringing characters to life I can’t explain his book suck you in😊 he’s amazing I want to read the Dome later!

[@throughthepages_with_dee]

Speaks the Nightbird the first of the Mathew Corbett series I’ve just finished and reviewed it’s an amazing book I cannot wait to read on in this series and read boys life. Sadly I know a few readers have been let down by Riley sager so I’m unsure whether to bother, I do love suspense thriller/ horror but when it’s jaw dropping, so that can wait I think. Great video again Ian 😊

[@Kittyzero13426]

I'm in the middle of too many books just because I need to be in the mood or motivated to read certain books. I am finally going to be finishing The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson. Happy reading!

[@heidi6281]

My favorite part of the Boy’s Life is the B Scifi Movie thread. So good!! Speaks the Nightbird was very good for me up until the ending chapters.

[@Megrosalie]

You are my hero ! I can barley read 3 books at the same time 😂😂

[@booknerd369]

Ooof I'm reading like 10+ books at a time and the audiobooks are falling by the wayside 😂 also the most recent Riley Sager was super good but my favorite is Home Before Dark

[@Harley24986]

Your reactions when you read are beyond compare and feel so immersive! But if you don't mind sir, could you please stop adding books to my TBR? K, thanks lol 😂

[@elisabethprice4697]

Love to see you reading different genres but when are you going to get to The Count of Monte Christo???

[@sardonisms]

Ian: I'm reading five books at the same time it's getting out of hand Me: only five? Adorable.

[@logann-mackenziefroste563]

Awesome vlog 💯‼️ I have heard that the Riley Sager books are not for everyone and I am like you where it’s hard for me to dnf a book.

I'm currently reading 7 books at once different days and genres.

11/22/63 is on my July TBR

[@arobinreads]

❤❤❤

[@hiimjenni]

I cannot wait to hear your thoughts/see your reactions to Infinite Jest! I’m in the middle of 2 books now, I was reading The Heavenly Table by Donald Ray Pollock, but it was moving a little slow and I found myself not wanting to pick it up. So I started Needful Things by Stephen King and I’m almost 200 pages in after 2 days 😅 (I should add that I usually ONLY read one book at a time, so this is a little different for me lol)

[@heidi6281]

I always read one physical book at night, just a few chapters each night. Then during the day I alternate between two audiobooks. Ian if you think Stephen King is good wait until you read Robin Hobb!! Liveship Traders is beyond great!

[@Megrosalie]

I want to read 11/22/63 but so thick lol😅. I just finished fairy tale by Stephen king and omg I loved it! It took me a few months but I had to read it and switch to audio. 🙃🙃 still loved it! I just got stored kings book of short stories you like it darker .

[@ithrahmunchswallow468]

Both Final Girls and Boys Life are on my TBR 🤔

[@Talesinmaking]

I love your videos so much they are great! I'm also a multiple book reader with a few too many half read, you're inspiring me to read them all but I started a new one only last night haha! Quick Question: when you hate a character in a book does it make you dislike the book any? Or do you think well done author you did your job well in getting me too despise them? haha I'm just and intrigued viewer 🤗

[@zivilejakubauskaite8683]

While you were talking about Lovely war I got it for myself. Because I wanna know what happened there to make your face like that! Once it arrives I will find out! 😁

[@themoodyreaderpodcast]

Yo this is the struggle of being a mood reader! Keeping several different storylines and multiple casts of characters in my head is like my 2nd job😂

[@lauryncraig1474]

I read two books at a time. I read the first hundred pages of one book then the a hundred on the second. And I repeat the same pattern until I finish both.

[@pjsandpages92]

Currently reading Swan Song by Robert McCammon and really loving it. I can see why it gets compared to The Stand a lot lol

[@Simplisticillustrations]

Read Station Eleven by emily st. John Mandel it's one of my 5 stars . I do recommend this if u like food for thought and discussion, pandemic reading and literary themes and I don't recommend this if u don't like some violence, swearing and nonlinear storytelling. I'd like to hear your thoughts/review. I read this in 1.2.21 genre literary fiction I also recommend this to your wife and get her thoughts/review on this book.

[@evilgenius4213]

I'd say the biggest misconception about Stephen King is that he *only* writes horror. He's a pretty dab hand at other genres, as well.

[@lameeya21]

Actually reading 11.22.63 ☺️

[@AREA-jp8vb]

11/22/63 has the best first 100 pages to a book I have ever read. Fantastic book!

[@DarthNathan_8]

Your review makes me want to read 11/22/63

[@Melissa_Connolly]

11/22/63 is my favorite SK novel and I recommend it all the time! I read it like 10 years ago, and you're making me want to re-read it! You should check out the author Joe Hill (Stephen King's son). He is equally talented and a few of his stories have become movie/TV adaptations as well!

[@user-jj3sm1ew5o]

I’m reading I Found You by Lisa Jewell, listening to A Game of Fate by Scarlett St. Clair, reading Winter Born on Apple Books and trying to finish book 5 of GOT but who knows when I’ll finish that since it’s over 1000 pages 😂

[@BriansReadingHovel]

You are without a doubt my favorite BookTuber and it's not even close! Is there a way I can send books to you?

[@iangubeli]

Thank you so much!! That means a lot! There is usually a link in the bio to an Amazon wishlist that I keep track of books and whatnot. A lot of people send books that way (whether on the list of whatever they wish to send)!!

[@BriansReadingHovel]

@@iangubeli I'll look into that! What if I wanted to order you something not from Amazon? I try not to support them whenever possible ha ha. I like giving money to dedicated book stores when possible

[@evelien_lyn]

I'm in the middle of 2 but I can't bring myself to finish then before my new book gets delivered, because when I finish those 2 I don't have any more books to read ... and that's how I get stuck in my reading :(

[@lorifrederick2367]

Day 1 of asking you to do a Series on (or add to your tbr if you haven’t read it yet) The Dresden Files… On Lovely War- haven’t read it but you said Trial of Aphrodite where her Husband, Hephaestus, is Judge on her Infidelity? Uh yeah that’s a Guilty on all counts and a definite not read because I have no desire to read a book where Aphrodite tells an NTR story as a Defense for Infidelity lol…

[@michelleizoco]

Before your channel I owned zero Stephen King (gasp, I know) and now I own 3. Should I do The Stand, 11/22/63 or Billy Summers first?

[@iangubeli]

I would start with the shortest of the three which is “Billy!” Then I would work my way up to “The Stand”
