lol My Life Next Door takes place in the summer too! WOAH THOSE KOREN BOOKS LOOK CRAZY / I SEE THE SWIRLIES!

[@NightOwlReader2790]

Ahh!!! You said my name, and I'm glad you are excited to read the book! You are very welcomed! My favorite color is red, so I am glad that the book I gave you was in the red-ish wrapping paper. There is a little message on the wrapping paper, don't know if you read it. I think I will be watching this a dozen more time, enjoy your books! I hope you love all your books, including the one I gave you.

[@Katytastic]

Yes! I read the message! It was so sweet! And I'm sure I'll love the book too! THANK YOU AGAIN!! :)

[@girlthatlaughs]

It's so cool how you always get new releases! I could never afford being caught up on so many series >_

[@tashapolis]

DO YOU WANNA BUILD A SNOWMAN?? I would have done the same thing!! I really need to catch up on the Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy cause I'm missing out. And that title always makes me think of the Lana Del Ray song... In the land of Gods and Monsters I was an angel... the rest of that lyric isn't very nice, but I always sing it when someone talks about Of Gods and Monsters!

[@thewittyromantic4375]

your collection of books is absolutely stunning. you are so funny! I hope you enjoy the House of Night series!

[@Katytastic]

Thank you! :)

[@TheMattGrimes]

Your bookshelves always look full of books so I'm confused as to how you can fit the new ones on your shelf!

[@FangtasticBites]

Kat, I'm so glad you got Easy! It's a very beautiful book, touches subjects that people don't really want to talk about! So excited for you! :)

[@KassidyReads]

Great haul!! I need to read I Am the Messenger.. The Book Thief is one of my fave books ever! Hope you enjoy all of your books!

[@twobookteens]

you are the queen of book haul thumbnails. also, YOUR MAKEUP, YOUR HAIR, YOUR DRESS OMG KAT YOU LOOK FAB IN THIS VIDEO

[@BookGossiper]

Kat! You look extra beautiful in this video

[@Katytastic]

Thank you!! AND YAY FOR DAUGHTER OF SMOKE AND BONE! I hope you love it! :)

[@chofi9384]

Though the book thief is really sad, the majority of the book was pretty heart warming, and even when I finished it I felt really inspired! It is the saddest book I've ever read, but it's also my favorite and really beautiful! You should give it go

[@cupcakesfandomss]

Books in Korean, that's so cool! When I was little and started to learn English I read a lot of books in English, and it helped a lot! It might be hard in the beginning, but it gets easier. It's also easier when you already have read the book in a language you understand, because then you're not completely clueless. I love all of your videos, and you are one of those who have inspired me to start my own channel, so thank you so much!

[@12purpleforever]

The Elite and The Selection are such good books! I've been waiting a year for the last one! Also, Easy is a brilliant one too, read it in a few hours 😜

[@newyorkfairy22]

I love the House of Night Series by P.C. And Kristin Cast such a great series and I heard they are trying to make it into a movie soon. If so I can't wait ^^

[@emilywebster7655]

Where do you put all of your new books!? It looks like your bookshelf is completely full! And can you do a updated book shelf tour please?

[@themawkwardpotatoes]

Hahaha that whole ending :') I like the new angle! And of course all of the lovely singing. -Claire

[@elenathegreat]

The Selection Trilogy...YES YOU MUST READ IT

[@DinoSoursGoRawrrx3]

I loved the first five books of the house of night series but I got to the six and seventh and really started to hate the series. I blame the characters (and partially the story line). On another note, Easy is one of my favorite books! I hope you enjoy it^^

[@heartYemiz]

"I am the messenger" is amazing! Zusaks writing is beautiful and the story is great. You really should read it as soon as you can!

[@inkedandbound9809]

I'm also planning to marathon The Selection Series soon! :) Can't wait!

[@calmingcupofbooks3359]

That's such a cool idea to get books in Korean to practice! I might try to do that once I get further into my own Korean studies. I Am The Messenger is really great! I hope you enjoy it.

[@RTLH199712]

Your library is beautiful! I live vicariously through you! :)

[@KatieOSheaBooks]

Awesome book haul! I'm particularly excited to get my hands on What I thought was true! :) and your collection of books on your shelves are just drool-worthy :) so pretty!

[@sandyreadsalot]

I read The Selection and The Elite this month and I really enjoyed it! I flew through those books so fast. I LOVE Easy! It's amazing. Haha, I loved it when you were opening the gift wrapped packages. :)

[@Kittykatgoroar4]

I feel like it's worth watching your videos just to look at your bookshelf. It's so beautiful agh

[@juliar684]

Yay! Can't wait for the wrap-up. I'm marathoning The Selection right now for The One ( re-reads granted, but still). LOVE your videos Kat :D

[@melbindsfics]

Love your book hauls they are always so entertaining.

[@Katytastic]

Thanks, Melody! (NOW GET BACK TO READING) XD

[@melbindsfics]

I AM READING… lol Thanks…

[@EverythingWithJordan]

at the point at which you're showing us mystery book number 2, my dog (who often watches your videos with me) just kept tilting her head at your "can you see the swirlies?" like she was soooo confused. haha!

[@olamahfouz8270]

I'm glad I found your channel! I'm going to check out some of those books on goodreads now! :D

[@katesbooks]

This video is hilarious :') Oh Kat, never fail to make me smile! Great haul!! So many gorgeous, exciting books!! I think April has just been the month for big book buying!! Also, you look stunning! xxx Back to studying for me now... :( Thanks for getting me out of it for a little while! haha

[@wandahost]

I want your shelves.I love to admire your books.Great Video.kisses from Portugal.

[@SonderReads]

First, your bookshelves in the background are absolutely stunning. Second, those Korean books are so interesting! Great haul! :)

[@TheCyberNymph]

I'm not sure if you have heard, seen, or been told this already but, if you get the house of night series in hardcover the opposite side of the dust jacket (the side without the title) turns into a poster. I believe they did it for all the books but I'm not sure... I know they've done it for most of them. This was kind of conflicting for me though because I love the covers so turning them and making them a poster was hard for me but they are fun to look at. : )

[@claraborgesbr]

Kat is dressed like a hot Vampire Queen!! :D

[@tanyaatkinson8996]

So much love for Easy! Best new adult I've read.

[@Katytastic]

I'm so excited to get to it! :)

[@shelbyloo28]

Oh my god I can't wait for you to read the midnighters trilogy, i love it soo much and i've never seen anyone else ever talk about it!

[@dramagirl94x]

My Life Next Door was fantastic! I just found your videos and love them!

[@Ka-lk9et]

Great video, as always. I want the book Rebel Belle! Hugs! K.

[@ElenaBoteva]

Nailed it :-) Very cool haul... P.S. Yes, I would like to build a snowman

[@Katytastic]

Haha yay! And THANK YOU again for the book! It's so shimmery and pretty! :)

[@ElenaBoteva]

You're very welcome :-)

[@rileyterrace2086]

Could you do a quickie bookshelf tour, please :) your book shelves are just so pretty

[@Ilovemakeup101010]

I've heard great things about Rebel Belle, and i'm excited to pick it up. I want to read Huntley Fitzpatrick's books for so long! I will be picking up both My Life Next Door, and What I Thought Was True; next time I go to the bookstore.

[@ErikaChung182]

Love long book hauls! I had no idea how far behind I was on the bandwagon for the Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy until I was at a bookstore the day Dreams of Gods and Monsters was released! I bought the first book back in December b/c of Boxing Day but at least I can marathon the whole series now! :D PS - X) Love the red lipstick!

[@archerymaster8]

My school is gonna have a buy one get one free book fair on Monday. Time to get books for summer reading!

[@ReadwithStefani]

You're one of my fave book tubers!! I've seen like 10 of your videos today. Nice to watch and hear. I wish I had as many books as you :)

[@avsambart]

O and I can't wait for you to read The Selection!! I cannot wait for The One!

[@PrintedMagic]

So many wonderful books. You need to catch up soon with the Selection series ;) They're great! I can't wait for the third one to come out! I think I need to catch up on the Daughter of Smoke and Bones trilogy. I need to know why everyone is so excited about them :)

[@DoeEyedGirl887]

I would love to get all of the books you mentioned but I just bought my first home. I close on April 30. Soooo, it may be a while before i buy any new books. Sort of a forced book buying ban. Will be looking forward to your reviews and future hauls. So keep buying those awesome books and do lots of reviews. I will watch every single video and be happy somebody is able to buy books. Love your vids!!

[@cinthiamartinez5103]

I read The Selection and it was AMAZING! I recently got the Elite and I'm reading it before the One comes out! Oh and I have the selection stories! They are two novellas of The selection

[@madanium]

I read the House of Night series several years ago and I got so sick of them... the series never seemed to end and the main character frustrated me. Also I love your dress! It is so cute!

[@thesunwentred]

I felt like I was there with you hanging out and watching you open presents!

[@iamgoindown]

One, LOVE your tattoos. Two, I just finished What I Thought Was True and it definitely isn't a light book but it's absolutely lovely! I had a great time reading it and it's a lot better than My Life Next Door, though I loved that too.

[@Melbel913]

I read the midnighters a year ago and they were super good. I have heard mixed reviews on the ending of the series though. I hope you like them!

[@34Tedo]

You and Christine have inspired me to start my own book channel. Its not this channel, and it doesn't have any videos on it yet. I hope sometime in the future I will have a book collection like yours! You look gorgeous in the video. :-)

[@tinyfit]

Tae yang ! lol idk why but I always think of Tae Yang whenever I think of Korea. He is my Prince Kai in the Lunar Chronicles series. Not the Ringa Linga Version but the wedding dress version of him.

[@aabatteryful]

Wow, Kat, you look good! The red lipstick looks amazing on you! Oh man, I need to get my hands on DoGaM, the first two books were so good, and that cover is to die for! Also, that House of Night box set looks so nice. I only read up to the 7th or 8th book in that series (i kinda lost interest), but i remember the first four being amazing. Hahah, LOOK AT THE SWIRLIES!! OOOOOOH

[@cookieaddictions]

You could honestly just stand there doing nothing for 10 minutes and I would watch because HOLY SMOKES YOUR BOOKSHELVES ARE SO BEAUTIFUL I CANNOT. I forget every time. Btw, I really like I am the Messenger, and I prefer it to The Book Thief. They're very different types of books.

[@bottombookshelf]

I hope you love I Am The Messenger! It's one of my favorites!

[@amandawright6337]

OMG you have to read The Selection!!! I love this series so much! Trust me you will finish the first book in a day. Its that good.

[@katherinebarka]

I have to read Dreams of Gods and Monsters ASAP! You'll love the Selection books, they're great :D

[@danid7400]

The Book Thief is amazing! I had my own reservations about it, but holy only, it was better than I thought and more so. Granted, it took to part 2 for me to get into, but you just got to push through it to the end, you will not be disappointed, what help me through the Book Thief was to think about it it terms of talking to Death around a campfire. ;)

[@TheBookChronicles]

So many cool books :D Fates looks amazing! Loved your Outro btw haha :)

[@lukecadens9729]

The selection series is awesome! Hope you enjoy!

[@jellie2492]

"Oh balls" Hilarious! Love it!!!

[@MsVampirate18]

Omg!!!!! Yay u have House of Night Now!!! I am almost done with the 11th book!

[@emilyhawkins1308]

Good Luck on the House of Night series... Oh what FUN went with them... why did I read them all... the third book was the breaking point for me...

[@gracehzhuang]

Do you wanna build a snowman? Lol great video! Liked and subscribed (:

[@StephCreativity]

Slowly counting down for "The One" love love love the Selection trilogy

[@olgaguevara7321]

Don't be scared of The Book Thief! It is such an amazing book. Yes, it has very sad moments--usually that make you reflect, in a good way. But it also has funny, cute, lovely, awesome parts. You should definitely read it. It is really good:)

[@EbayleyA]

Easy is wonderful! :) I have taken off work on the day its companion book comes out so I can read it right away. :D

[@sydneynicole6860]

THE MIDNIGHTERS SERIES IS SO COOL!! :D I hope you enjoy it!!

[@archivedandnoted]

hahaha the outro was so funny. so many good books!!

[@viwinwin]

Awesome haul! So many amazing books I'm dying to read!

[@littlestrangunusual]

Just finished My Life Next Door and absolutely loved it!

[@lexirichards7464]

I've read the House of Nights books before and I loved them!! Can't wait to hear your thoughts on them

[@Iadoreferrets]

I love the House of Night. I gotta get to reading the last 4 before the 12th and final book comes out :))

[@TheBookaneers29]

Dreams of Gods and Monsters looks so pretty... Too bad I haven't started the series yet, but I'll definitely be picking up the box set in October.... or something xD Great haul, your bloopers are hilarious xD

[@StrayKids_et_al]

I've started a bad habit of having my amazon open every time I watch your book hauls. My purse may not like it but I am very much enjoying the increase of great literature in my life.

[@Katytastic]

LOL send my apologies to your purse but YAY HAPPY READING! :)

[@heatherlockeheart3444]

I'm probably going to go but the Selection Trilogy now, haha so excited!!! Btw I love your videos and your bookshelf!!!

[@EaglesRead]

*knocks on book* "do you wanna build a snowman?" That was great xD

[@Katytastic]

LOL WELL DO YOU?? LET'S GO BUILD A SNOWMAN! XD

[@blobfishrsmexii]

I agree that I Am the Messenger is way less devastating than The Book Thief, shorter and a bit easier to get into. Although I do think overall The Book Thief is the better of the two, though I enjoyed them both and hope you do too!

[@mom2triplets04]

So want to read that adult series you mentioned. Christine also mentioned it in her video. Maybe next month.

[@StudioLindsay]

You're so lucky you get to live in a library! :) Good luck with your Korean studies! I'm trying to learn Korean on my own too. It's difficult!

[@dianaeves5044]

OMG! Kat, you look sooooooo pretty! (as usual!) I've never heard of Fates before but I'm super excited now!! Thank youuu!!!

[@AngelsLieToKeepCtrl]

I love the house of night series! It's ending soon sadly. The rest of your books look interesting too. Looks like I'm getting my own amazon wishlist! lol

[@ellethoelke5373]

I love watching your videos! And yay for the Korean books! I'll warn you right now, reading Harry Potter in Korean is going to be hard because of all the loanwords. Fun, but hard. I know, I've done it before. Good luck with learning Korean!

[@tabberella2780]

Hmmm what a great idea for learning a new language I think I might try it myself! Spanish Harry Potter here I come! :D

[@MIUSIC57]

Omg a lot of books! I hope you enjoy them! You're so funny! Kisses from Mexico!

[@BrieCheese]

I read I am the Messenger before I read The Book Thief. It was easier to get into and a lot less devastating. That said, I do think that The Book Thief is the better book, but they're both good.

[@Rosie-yt8nd]

House of Night was the first YA series I read and I loved it. It got me into reading so much. It's a series of supposedly 12 books and I got it up until the 8th. I loved it in the beginning but I felt like it lost it thrill as it went on and I didn't enjoy it as much as in the beginning. And books over here are expensive as hell (like 15-20€ for a hardcover and you only find hardcovers) so I didn't continue it cuz it didn't feel worth that money. But I enjoyed the first books so enjoy them :)

[@punkrocker634]

I absolutely love The House of Night series. It is one of my favorite series.

[@celestiakare18]

My Life Next Door takes place during the summer too...

[@flora22511]

I'm really curious to see if you like The House of Night series! The first few books were still okay but after I've read the first eight books in the hope it would get better I just couldn't continue.

[@BooksWithClaire]

Such a great haul! when i watch your hauls i always feel to buy more xD

[@briedio6002]

House of Night series and The Midnighters series are SO GOOD!

[@shyannarayburn6019]

I think you will the house of night books there amazing!

[@susandavis7132]

you are super duper welcome! btw love how weird you are, can't even handle how much i like the bloopers

[@Katytastic]

Hahaha yeah I get a little cray sometimes XD AND THANK YOU AGAIN!! :)

[@KylaVaughan]

I seriously can't convince myself to buy books unless I can't find them anywhere else... They are so expensive and I rarely reread books unless they are my ultimate favorites, most of which I own. Though I did purchase Fangirl today!

[@Katytastic]

Haha I'm the opposite, I just love owning lots and lots of books! BUT FANGIRL IS FANTASTIC, I HOPE YOU ENJOY IT! :)

[@KylaVaughan]

Haha, I love owning them too, despite only owning like 15 books... I am getting a signed copy of one of Jeffery Deaver's books, he is my favorite author, despite being an adult one! I hope I enjoy it too!

[@SwagGirl8494]

I really liked it (: I started to watch your videos yesterday and im obsessed hahaha ♥

[@Katytastic]

Haha thank you and welcome! :)

[@cookieaddictions]

Also, DREAMS OF GODS AND MONSTERS OMGGGGG. It's also my second favorite series of all time :)

[@tess5968]

In the rainbow video one year ago you already had the casual vacancy in your book shelf - what happened to that book? Do you own two of it now?
