This has convinced me beyond anything to read The Handmaids Tale like...asap! This video is such a good idea too, both the YA and Adult categories are so vast its easy to get overwhelmed, direct comparison recs make it so much more accessible...go you girl!

Charley Reads And she convinced me of the reverse, as I have already read The Handmaid's Tale. Only Ever Yours has been kind of floating on the edges and I was thinking about it, but now I definitely want to read it.

Hahah love the ending. This video is great, I am often tempted by the YA books recommended in booktube because the plot seems interesting, but then if I read them I get frustrated by the writing style or by an annoying young character who is more worried about his crush/love/looks/whatever than about what is really important, so I am definitely intetested in the 'adult version' of any YA book with a good plot.

I love the idea behind this video! I love seeing someone try to bridge the gap between YA and adult literature. I hate it when people act like you can only enjoy one or the other. There are some fantastic books in both categories.

Great idea for a video! I read mostly adult lit but as a lot of people on booktube only discuss YA, it's good to get some recommendations, also with comparisons to books I'm very familiar with from hearing them talked about a lot. Jen 😀

I've been planning to film the same type of video and had also thought of We Were Liars and The Secret History as a match! While I didn't particularly enjoy We Were Liars, there are far too many similarities between it and The Secret History to be ignored. Fantastic video! :)

you're the first book tuber I've watched that discusses a really wide range of fiction, which I absolutely love! I read a lot more adult because I feel some YA can be quite predictable and often I dislike the writing style but all the books you've recommended here are/sound so interesting. I love your reviews :-)

I stumbled across this video (because sometimes KZbin has awesome random suggestions) and I really loved your comparisons. I read both 'Only Ever Yours' and 'A Handmaid's Tale' and they're both so gripping and terrifying. I also read and adored 'Vivian verses the apocalypse' and I'll definitely be checking out 'Day of the Triffids'.

I loved loved loved this video! I've read either the adult version, or the YA version. As for the apocalyptic novel, I have Day of the Triffids already, and must read it and Vivian vs the Apocalypse soon :) And Only Ever Yours is on my list since I love A Handmaid's Tale. On another note, have you read Villette? I've heard it's Charlotte Bronte's best but now largely forgotten novel.
