Olivia! You are psychic lol how did you know I needed a feature film from you this week! This will be my decompressing video when I get home from work and snuggle up with my kitties. You have the power to literally talk about lint balls haha or the weather and I am here and ready. Talk in pig Latin I don’t care haha we ❤️ you so much 😊

I hope you have a good day!! 🐈 🫶🏻

That was quite the peek in from your partner to come in when you were doing a quick look on video

[@oliviareadsalatte]

oh i'm freaking cackling, the immediate regret and slow back out 😭😂 i didn't even see that at first!

[@lisajennifer8817]

@oliviareadsalatte I saw her face, and she was "woah...I came in at the wrong time! Crap! I better turn back around and leave! She's on camera!" Then you see Jacob's head perk up after he comes in.

[@lisajennifer8817]

It's right at the 1 hour mark. About a second or 2.

‘I’m fighting for my life on a cellular level’ tell me why that is the most accurate way to describe myself living with MS. Hahahaha made me laugh so hard but also the next time someone asks me how I’m doing you, that is going to be my response 😂😂😂

[@Chaerishluvchae]

I got behind and your vlogs due to me moving across the country. Catching up while unpacking has been so great and easing my anxiety with all the change, bless the 2 hr vlog! ❤❤

[@KatQuackLaugh11]

Girl you kill weekly vlogs!! They are literally the only videos I’d watch this long lolol ❤❤

[@jojocountrygirl]

I agree with you about Finlay! I love them!! I like outlandish things though and personally I don’t understand people that want their fiction to be realistic. But I also love the Miss Fortune series by Jana Deleon which gets super outlandish but I LIVE for it!!

[@krisprepolec5616]

I think using the thread from your grandma on something that you can use, and then look at it and think of her is a good use for it ❤

[@oliviareadsalatte]

I agree ☺️

Thank you Olivia for keeping me company on a saturday night !

You are so welcome! 🫶🏻

[@rubycole2374]

I don’t know if anyone else has answered your question about the oven but we had that same problem and it was the temperature sensor, it costs about $150 to replace but it’s cheaper than a new oven. Btw love the long videos!

[@ashleyjackson8849]

Just want to say you're my favorite booktuber of all time! I have no idea how you juggling teaching with KZbin but you're killing it 😊❤️ Also, I have 3 cat children and understand your pain with vet expenses. These little free loaders need jobs 😂 I love the cross stitch book marks you shared. I've tried cross stitch but don't have the patience to count squares. Are you able to share the link? I know you mentioned you would but I didn't see it in the description. Lastly, I'm sorry that you had a series of unfortunate events. I can appreciate that you took to laughing about it because there was nothing else to be done lol

[@oliviareadsalatte]

Awh thank you so so much! I didn't link them because amazon doesn't have the exact ones I bought anymore 😭 but do get any cross stitches you don't have to count for, I just type in 'stamped cross stitch bookmark' and a ton come up!

I loved the grocery store voice over! I also HEAVILY relate to "I can't wait to not read all of these books" you checked out at the library.. literally me yesterday.

Just got home from work, made dinner and cannot wait to sit and watch this. My evening is made. Thank you!💗

[@CleaSelene]

I am *so* sorry about everything that caused *that* car clip but thank you *so* much for filming/editing/keeping it, 'cause the stress laughter and the mood of the entire monologue were *so* relatable (down to that "ugh, virgo" exclamation 🤣) that it had me laughing my bum off at the end of an emotionally very shitty day 💝

[@elizabethc.9910]

Gertie and Idabelle are who I want to be when I'm old! I love them so much! I have never heard anyone talk about the Miss Fortune series before, and when I first heard you mention the series, I was so excited. I knew I found my favorite booktuber! ❤

[@booksandwoollysocks]

I’ve just found myself in a historical romance mood and I’m loving it! The meddle and mend series by Sarah Wallace is so good, and if you want the fantasy and mystery elements a marvellous light by Freya marske was amazing! I finished it yesterday and already have the rest of the series reserved at the library

[@Beafree]

I can't tolerate bright light either. All my tech stuff is dimmed. I will change whatever I can to the black light option. Thank goddess, the kindle has the black light option as well.

[@oliviareadsalatte]

I love the kindle lighting options so much!

Not me thinking all day yesterday that it was Wednesday and therefore waiting impatiently for a vlog to be uploaded only to be disappointed when I realized at 6 pm that was in fact Tuesday not Wednesday 😭😭😭😂

[@kitnaaay]

I fully agree with your assessment of Finlay + booktube! I remember when book 2 came out there was a lot of discourse about it not being great and I was like oooohhh y’all have not ready many cozies. I recommend the Stephanie Plum novels by Janet Evonavitch!

[@oliviareadsalatte]

I’m going to start that series once I catch up on Miss Fortune!

I couldn't agree more on your thoughts regarding the Finlay Donovan series. I just finished the 4th book on Friday and loved it. I have loved all of them. The 3rd book was my least favorite, but I still really, really enjoyed it. It's like, the people still complaining about the series, we're on book 4, honestly nothing about the books has changed, it you don't like this type of Cozy Mystery, than stop reading the series! LOL -- don't just reading expecting it to change and then bring her overall rating! Hahaha -- Anywho, glad you enjoy the series as well!
