I loved that her special edition of Six of Crows has illustrations because we should normalise illustrations in adult books

the fact that nobody talks about the book called Manifestation Hacks by Olivia Cooper speaks volumes about how people are stuck in a trance.

The Book Thief is such a good winter read, you need to read it soon! You might need to keep a tissue box close, because man, will that kiss make you cry

I read it in Feb and honestly think about it so much. Such a powerful book!

[@cassielovesreading]

Great video, Ali!! I have The Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom as well. I haven't read them yet, but since you really liked them, I'm going to read them next month. Anyhoo, I hope that you're having a great day so far and enjoy your readings. Take care, sweetie ❤❤❤.

Omg your special editions are so pretty!!! I have a few of those books on my list, so your ratings are making me very eager to read them!

girliiieee I need ur answer so I’ve never read a fantasy book right and I’ve loved the premise of six of crows it felt unique so I bought it and this past week I have been trying to read it but I feel more confused I’m only like 16 pages in and I picked up another book and I don’t know if I should go back to it cuz I’m so interested plus I never read any Leigh Bardugo book so yh thank u in advance

@@mastermanipulator-om4kn yes I can definitely see my self loving this duology,I’ll trust u on this and thank you so much 💕

[@craftychicken12]

LOVE Six of Crows. The main reason why there's only five POV's in Six of Crows and yet there's six in Crooked Kingdom, is that in the beginning of the duology, Wylan is supposed to be an outsider. He's supposed to be someone for the reader to relate to in a way. He's the character who we don't get to see in the mind of at first and instead both we and him are being pulled into this world of mystery and criminality and at first being apalled by it, but slowly learning why these characters are the way they are. By the time we reach book two, Wylan has been caught up in this as well and so have we, therefore we learn more about him and we finally get to see inside his head. We get to bond with this guy who up until Crooked Kingdom starts has been a little overshadowed by the other crows. It's a masterclass in writing and making you fall in love with these characters. I will always treasure what these two books do and how wonderfully written they are. An absolute treasure in our bookish world.

[@alexandra.verreault]

Omg so happy to see my city in the video! Hope you enjoyed Québec City (and all the construction hahaha)!! 🫶

[@lenadublin3453]

I either listen to instrumental music, rain sounds, or the audiobook while I read. All helps me feel immersed in the story. Love your cozy videos!

[@LivD2112]

As a French Canadian, I'm glad you enjoyed Quebec City and Montreal. Your blanket looks so comfy by the way. Thank you for your great videos Ali!

[@readingwithjessica]

the “acotar ambience” playlist on spotify is my fave playlist to listen to when reading!

[@nazeera22]

Yay! Im so happy you finally read six of crows💖💖

[@super_geto]

your blanket looks so cozy 😭❤️

[@Zoe_Lipman]

I am so glad you have the same mentality about thrillers/mysteries as I do: the end has to be satisfying. I always feel like I rate that genre so low because of that. But this is validating so thank you.

[@emerkinsella470]

That edition of six of crows is so beautifu 😍

[@rebeccawickham7317]

One thing i really appreciate about six of crows is how she writes the pov name in the chapter

[@TheLazyDaze]

Nina my waffle queen 🙏💅 Super stoked you finally read six of crows!! Crooked Kingdom is defos my fave of the 2 tho! Very excited to hear what your thoughts on the Netflix series are!

[@arianaspencer3382]

I love Six of Crows duology, especially Crooked Kindom! I really love the whole Grishaverse! If you want, you can also read King of Scars duology, which is back in Ravka after CK timeline & follows Nikolai (my fave), Zoya, and Nina. There's some royal court found family, and Rules of Wolves (book 2) has a fun cameo of the Crows. The banter in the series is awesome!

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

That comforter looks SO COMFY COZY omg

[@fashingrl]

Love those bubble throws! I ordered 2 through your link!! ❤❤❤

[@klara_2437]

Love the video, as always! For me, looking at ratings depends on why I’m reading a book. I usually look at them when I’m looking for what to read next and I’m slumping and then I only read it if it’s at least around 4 stars. But on the other hand if my purpose is to read a specific book, either it’s hyped on social media or like a classic, I will avoid all reviews and especially ratings, because both bad and good ones can put me off 😅. It’s complicated out here.

[@bookswithamymarie]

So fun! I now need to dig through my books to see what the highest and lowest rated books are 💜

Ali I love that you just say in the floor to film bc Luca was asleep in your chair 😂

such a cute video idea!!! also im in looove with the hearts sweater! so cozy

I think the highest rated book I own is either 'It' or 'The Shining' and the lowest rated is either 'Rage' or 'Dreamcatcher'.

Omg you've been to Montreal! I live there, hope you liked your stay!!

[@DaughterOfTheKingdom16]

15:24 I personally like to read watching everyone’s booktube videos I have adhd and so for me I like body doubling. So I tend to read with other booktubers also reading so I don’t feel so lonely. Or I will listen to the appropriate matching playlist on spotify with like ambient background sounds

[@emmaskapetis7603]

Great vlog💕. I completely agree with about ratings and reviews. Reading is so subjective. How you felt about the first book that you read is how I felt about Just one damned thing for another by Jodi Taylor. I hated the narrator of that story and things kept happening out of nowhere so I gave it 1 star. I sometimes get disappointed with really popular books as well such as the Crowns of Nyaxia duology by Carissa Broadbent. I still enjoyed those books but definitely not as much as I thought I was going to because of the hype around them.

[@faithhyyyyyy]

I actually listen to that specific playlist too!!! I found a few songs that I really prefer and started building my own personal playlist with the songs that I find don’t distract me 😅

[@zsofiturcsik6903]

Knowing the ending of Crooked Kingdom, I was suffering watching this 😭

[@Maroon58]

I just read Six of Crows and loved it! Slow to start but got really good and I’m excited to read Crooked Kingdom. I did read The Shadow and Bone trilogy first and I really enjoyed them too.

[@cath7411]

Omg Quebec mentionned!

[@juliacash8135]

After six of crows there is a duology about both the characters from six of crows and the shadow and bone series if you want to read that. They are called King of Scars and Rule of wolves in that order. They are great as well!

[@Lillyjoy]

This was a fun video 😊 I don’t look at ratings before reading because then I also end up looking at the goodreads reviews and lately there’s just been too many spoilery quotes that people put at the beginning of the review :/ I would rather go into the book not knowing much but I do love hearing booktubers thoughts

[@Notyourzoe]

Omg u look so pretty in the thumbnail i love your hair💘🤩

You should do a version of this series where you read the books with the most and least amount of ratings.

I like to listen to final fantasy soundtracks while reading!

[@spiritedreviewexc]

so sometimes i like to read with docues on TV or the foodnetwork for backround noise, or I´ll listen to my heavy rock music, like AFI or 1000 foot crutch, or Fall out Boy (i guess thatś not rock anymore?) Sometimes I´ll listen to classical music to read too, I´ll also read along with you while im watching your videos...(not the same books but i did give a higher rating for the end of Icebreakers...but Im obsessed with hockey so....i wish they kept going with the characters dont you? I also color so when i color, I like to listen to audio books now....(i never liked them because i have learning disabilities--they were forced on me when i was a kid, but now i love them, I finished L&L ik you didn´t like it, but you should listen to the audio book because he (the author) gives all his characters voices...! Im obsessed I do not tend to read the reviews because alot of them are not accurate. Some people review them (The books) on the covers alone, because a book I really am itching for to come out doesn´t even have a cover yet, and everyone is reviewing it, LIKE WHAT!?

[@mckennalovescontent]

Time to read King of Scars/Rule of Wolves 👀

About the how do you read your book. I read my book with music with lyrics(don't ask me how sometimes I don"t even know. I get distracted sometimes tho). Most of the time I also search the book on spotify and find the playlist with the most songs that I know. I also discovered some new songs to just listen to while I am not reading.

[@Reagan-zi2fi]

I typically only give 1 stars to books that offend me and I obviously have to hate the book itself too, so pretty similar to your system. And I think there's only been 3 books I’ve rated a 1 star, which was Stalking Jack the Ripper by Kerri Maniscalco, Lovely Dark and Deep by Justina Chen, and The Boy in the Striped Pajamas by John Boyne.

If you find you dont like those two books by natasha. I found her work got a lot less good after wattpad, so if you haven't read what started, it all for her. The Cellar is a big reccomend. It's about a man who kidnaps homless women and smex workers to keep in his basement as his flowers.
