I was literally hoping one of the book girlies would post today so I could be happy!! Thank you Des!!!!

[@Tejashwini_12]

Let me guess...Haley ,Sara or Destiny...❤🎉

[@luvmiyax]

I’m so happy Destiny posted! She must knew I was having a bad day

[@LexiSimovski]

me too girl

Me too

[@caeli-nubes]

Hi Des, I hope you‘re doing well, after seeing the last video, I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate all your videos. You inspired me to start reading again. Sending you lots of love ❤

[@skywriter9359]

Wrong place is really well written. I listened to it and before I reached the ending I went back to listen again. It’s fascinating.

[@moferrari]

just want to say you inspired me to start reading in the beginning of august when i found ur channel and now ive read five books this month💕

[@Idkwhattocallmyselfonhere]

Your intros are always top tier. Your creativity and editing will forever be one of my faves. Love all your content ❤️❤️❤️

[@jessicapinto1740]

I don’t know if it counts as a thriller but I’m not really a thriller/mystery girlie and absolutely ADORED in my dreams I hold a knife so would recommend you try that next!

[@brookedudley8083]

There are books by Freida McFadden that are better than the inmate. Don’t let that one sway your opinion on her.

[@yukicious2080]

which ones are ur favs?? i've read housemaid and the housemaid's secret, never lie, the locked door, and the inmate. I really didn't like the locked door or the inmate but really enjoyed the first 3 books i listed. have you read any other ones by her you recommend?

[@brookedudley8083]

@@yukicious2080 I haven’t read very many of her books but I have read the housemaid series. I really liked it. I’ve also read The Inmate, Ward D and One by One. Those last 2 had pretty good and unsuspecting plot twists imo. I’m also planning on reading her new book The Coworker.

[@yukicious2080]

@@brookedudley8083 okay I might try Ward D😇😇

[@QuilValentine]

@@yukicious2080 Do Not Disturb is also very good.

[@journeysilvers9838]

I've only read One by One but I really liked it. It reads really fast and I honestly felt more like I was watching a movie than reading a book for some reason? I guess because the pace was fast.

[@XOmangoXO]

That was exactly how I felt with Final Girls, that Sager made the female MC so unrealistically naive and it seemed off to me

[@ashleyrodriguez2729]

Oh my goodness, hello Destiny! This is my first time commenting on one of your videos, but I just wanted to say hi and that I love your videos. With someone who also deals with anxiety, burn out, and depression (and also loves to read) you're such a light in the darkness. You make my day when you post and I'm just so happy when I watch your videos. I feel like I'm watching a friend talk about all of their loves and worries. You're such a great content creator and you're an even better person. Thank you for being such a joy in my life, a splash of sunshine. Thank you so much! Keep up the great work and make sure you take care of yourself as well. You matter the most. We're all here for you. Love you Destiny! Love, Ashley :)

[@mariaruiz8820]

You make me smile… I love this concept and I appreciate you being a “tough” rater. The roof work at the beginning was hilarious and could have been spooky effects.

[@thisbookworm-tv9nk]

you're so real for your book ratings lol. obsessed with your videos! love you des! 🥰

[@sarahsamelia]

i am so excited for this video!! i am loving the book girlies regular videos💗

[@samyaahmed_]

i went on an alice feeney binge this month + this video makes me want to read more thrillers

[@sophieh222]

love all your videos so much! hope you are continuing the vlogs! i started watching you bc of your book videos but now i’m even enjoying the vlogs more because i LOVE your personality, your talking etc. (still enjoying the book videos tho)

[@DevinBryantfilms]

Indie books have that genuine author feel… it hasn’t been passed along from editor to editor to publisher to agent lol… Indie authors can be unfiltered ❤

[@stephersislove]

I loved The Inmate, I gave it 5 stars ⭐️ sad you didn’t enjoy it but I think you’d probably like Never Lie by her if you wanted to give Frieda another shot

[@nkoscovaa]

You saved my day!! You can’t even imagine how happy I am that you posted!!!❤❤

[@Kelvin0815]

I'm so excited for this video! The thumbnail looks amazing like always!

[@Shelbsesthetics]

You’re videos always brighten my day!! I also wanted to say how you’re editing skill are amazing :)

[@OnlyySunshine]

I’m so glad to hear your opinion of “The Turn of the Key” so many of my friends said it was 5 ⭐️’s and I felt the same way you did!

[@andreaguess9718]

I love your humor today. I am also a “harsh rater” and I am totally ok with it.

[@wolfme4030]

Your accent was closer to a London accent than a Liverpudlian/Scouse accent. I haven’t read many books written by authors from my own home town but I’m now interested in reading Wrong Place, Wrong Time.

[@amberlightss]

so happy you posted Destiny!! It's perfect for the rainy weather we're having where I am today :)

[@traycehargrove8674]

STOP i was just wanting a des video and opened yt to see a DES VIDEO!!!! I LOVE YOU DES THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU DO

[@Thelm1s]

I love that Destiny is reading more thrillers!❤

[@---21875]

Yesssss i love when destiny posts!!!

[@carolzhang962]

IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS VIDEO DES 🤭✨🫶🏻

[@francesthompson4639]

love when the queen post a new viddd !!

[@finnbaker6562]

When I was reading the turn of the key, I thought it was so incredibly good. Like the small plot twist was so well written. It tells you multiple times throughout the book and you never notice. Same with the big one, but the unreliable narrator part made it harder. And then the very very end killed me, like bro, no way that happened

[@EmilyMunoz-bu5ze]

love your videos! They always make my day

[@cosyreadingclub]

Thriller reading vlog YESSSSD 😍😍😍

[@priyar4885]

I absolutely love your videos and can't wait for your Harry Potter reading vlog in September!

[@milliesmith3250]

Hi destiny! Hope you’re doing well! It’s 3am in Australia lol love your videos and I also want to say I absolutely love your vlogs as well! 💜💜💜

[@wolfme4030]

I can never recommend writing fantasticfiction as a web address enough as it is a great database of fiction authors/book series. You can also pick genres including thrillers 😊

[@ginnyluv4601]

I don’t really read thrillers but i love watching your videos regardless. Ilyyyy ❤

[@Camrynheiservlogs]

it's a good day if destiny posts❤❤❤

[@Lilyspages]

It’s my birthday and I love that you posted today !!! Thank you ❤😅

[@deniseheins2133]

I've read all but the Riley Sager. 100% agree on The Inmate but I really liked The Housemaid. 4 stars for Flicker in the Dark and 3 for Turn of the Key. Thanks for the video!

[@gracebiernacki4797]

Soooooo happy you read + loved wrong place wrong time!! One of my top three books of this year!!

[@avathompson29]

destiny’s intros are top tier 💜

[@beccaelainex]

steph & des in the same day!!!! oh slayyyyy

[@squidwardtentacles7144]

It's so funny how you read "Wrong Place Wrong Time" in this video because I literally just finished it yesterday.😅 I ended up giving it a 3.75/5. I thought it was fine, but I agree with you when you said it doesn't read like a thriller. I felt like it was more magical realism with a hint of mystery. Oddly enough I acutllay didn't like her writing for this book; it was too mundane for and not even suspense. And the ending, to me, was very disappointing. I also read a Ruth Ware book this month too ("The It Girl"). It was my first book by her and based on what you were saying earlier I think she just might be a slow burn thriller author because "The It Girl" was also very slow (it's over 400 pages, I believe). And I think I rated "A Flicker In The Dark" the same as you did. I actually did guess the plot twist and I totally agree with you that it wasn't really suspenseful. It read more like a mystery.

[@marneygreenwood]

The happiness of waking up to a new Des book video 😁😁😁

[@thePeaches05]

I just finished Wrong Place Wrong Time last night. Fastest book I’ve ever flown through. I loved it. So many things I didn’t see coming!!! Loved it!!!

[@Tonilish]

DESSS THE KNOTT'S HARBOR SHIRT IS SO GOOD WHERE DID YOU GET IT?!?!?!? anyways you are amazinggg❤

[@arianabillings979]

I’m SO excited for this video and on my BIRTHDAY!! 🎉

[@zuzannalus]

I found you few days ago and i am bingeing your videos! You make me smile, idk what is it, but you are so funny! ❤

[@samanthaaa2297]

I needed some thriller recommendations since I’ve been branching away from it 😭 thanks girly 💕

[@samanthaaa2297]

also Goodreads def gave away this video but we love pretending 😂

Congrats on 170k🎉❤.

I can’t WAIT for the Harry Potter fall vlogs that are about to come out!!

[@kaylee02060]

When I saw the books you were reading on Goodreads, I had a feeling that’s what this week’s video was going to be

[@kylaray5076]

I 100% recommend anything by Natasha Preston specifically The Lake it’s so good and another is She’s Too Pretty to Burn by Wendy Heard it’s my favorite book!

[@andreea.lecaaa]

your videos are everythingg 🤞🏼

[@Sof_rha]

I really wanna get into reading thrillers so this is great!

[@elainebarrera8053]

I totally agree with your thought process. My fav thrillers don't really build up to major plot twist, but are simply more "thrilling" throughout the plot. I'm constantly at the edge of my seat. Taylor Adams does that really well, I love his books. I recently picked up Hairpin Bridge by him from my library. So far so good :)

[@brynnstasiulis5239]

THANK YOU DES i needed this so bad

[@Itsezyyyy__]

Haha love how you insert Haley’s book vlog in your vid while she has your book vlog in her recent book vid😁

[@jackie-gi1ih]

I love your videos so much!! hope you have a good day!! love ya 😘😘

Yesss more thrillers please!!

[@allisone9697]

Omg I saw ur goodreads and saw u posted thrillers and I wondered if you were gonna do a videos. Also i love ur videos sm

[@addisongrant680]

this video is perfect right before fall!

[@Itsezyyyy__]

Excited to get into mystery/thrillers next szn cause I’m currently into fantasy/dystopian rn but right after I finish songbirds and acotar I’m gonna start billy summers and good girl’s guide to murder, I’m soo excited

[@sammaam1212]

It never surprises me when people that loved The Housemaid say they’re disappointed by a lot of Frieda McFadden’s other books because The Last Mrs Parrish, a book with a near identical plot to The Housemaid, came out 5 years earlier 👀 👀

[@peditsix]

DES PLEASE READ “HOUSE OF HOLLOW” not only is the cover gorgeous but the story is so creepily unique and a book that has stayed with me and i need to hear your thoughtssss

[@rachell6710]

Des is gonna put me in my thriller era

[@syd_6489]

i literally love ur humor ❤ ur so funny 😂

[@lilliewyant4086]

Destiny I love your channel. You are amazing! I enjoy your videos so much. You always do a great job. I loved your video today. I love thrillers.

[@micaelavisser7611]

I was literally reading on my kindle when I got a notification and I immediately started watching!!

[@abbymariethomas4034]

Hi des, you mentioned in the last pod that your mic was being weird and I couldn’t tell if it was yours or Sara’s but now in this video it’s definitely yours! There’s a super high pitched squeal when you speak into the podcast mic at the beginning!

[@AmyTheEarthling]

Hahaha you practicing saying ‘alright’ in the least scouse (Liverpool) accent ever is sending me 😂 pleaseeee look up the accent and give us a go at it in your next vlog. Loving the video so far 💖💖

[@emmalouxx]

Aww I loved hearing you say Liverpool! (my hometown!) 🥰

[@Kittyzero13426]

I love these type of videos because I have been having a hard time finding a good thriller. Glad to see some reading being done ^_^. Hope your doing well.

[@Nctxx]

The queen Des is back

[@nataliewooten6455]

one thing about me, im never gonna miss a Des video 🤭

[@kyleerabbitts3671]

i also gave the inmate 2 stars, so i’m glad i’m not the only one! the FMC was soooo annoying to me. like girl… let’s make some better choices. she seemed so gullible and like no thoughts behind her eyes. the epilogue was what made me give it 2 stars instead of 1!

[@madi_iiiiii5]

ur intros are the bestttttt

[@cschaubhut]

I felt the same about The Only One Left 😭 and I was so excited for it, I rated it 3.75, I really wasn’t connected to the characters either

[@user-re3jc7rj9m]

What an amazing video ❤. It made my hole day. You should read winter water by Susanne Jansson a mystery about children that get missing the exact same day but decades apart. Continue the great work 🎉

[@kellierosereads]

Loved this video!!! Also I need to know where your folklore zip up is from!!!
