0:50 “ I’m feeling very *ambitious* ” I think I’m sensing a theme here...

[@vanessahansmann2465]

I am LOVING the slytherin aesthetic in this omfg

[@mybirthwrite]

The faded blue looks SO GOOD for that Slytherin aesthetic.

[@maud8956]

Those cunning folks use any means to achieve their ends🐍💚

SLYTHERIN PRIDE 🐍💚

[@Katytastic]

YESSSSSSSSssssssss

[@madilaurencelle2934]

I don’t want to play favorites but this is my favorite

[@sullyg3841]

Slaying the year with all these videos, all the reading, and all your beauty.

[@orangeemnm19]

Strange the Dreamer is a wonderful story. Obviously since it's Laini Taylor it is a very lyrical story and she creates such a world in this book! I hope you get to read it in March!

[@mahreenaisha7046]

Okay ......ur bookshelf is heaven

[@samanthadalton7878]

hahaha "no one can tell me what to do... not even me"... SAME! We Are Okay is fabulous! I was just waiting for you to say Strange the Dreamer. I have the same prob with high expectations for that book... I can't wait to hear your thoughts.

[@samanthadalton7878]

that doctor who episode is suchhhhhhh a good one though

[@juangomez4713]

"Hey, hey Wouldn't it be great, great If we could just lay down And wake up in Slowtown" LOVE THAT SONG AND YOU TOO KAT!!!!!

[@helenejeppesen2133]

It’s exciting to see you getting your reading mojo back 🤓

[@Katytastic]

thanks helene!! i finally feel like i'm getting back into the booktube groove XD

[@Abby-tv3ve]

They Both Die at the End and Eliza and her Monsters were two of my favourite reads from last year!! Excited to hear your thought!

[@SovereignNovels]

Hair. Makeup. Hat. On point. I'm here for this look.

[@stefs6590]

It makes me so happy to see so many videos coming out on your channel lately. Your voice and perspective is my favorite of any booktuber.

[@The_WriterVerse]

The Dr. Who episodes with Van Goh are so precious and the one with his gallery and the flowers 😭❤️😭❤️😭❤️😭 it’s my favorite episode!!!!

[@ThePatchworkNerd]

Eliza and her Monsters was one of my absolute favorite books I read in 2017! I hope you love it too! ^_^

[@flora22511]

The upside of unrequited has been on my tbr for a while as well!! And I love seeing Outlander on the bottom left on your bookshelf! That edition is just beautiful

[@chloebunnie]

I really want to get to Eliza and her Monsters soon too. It sounds amazing! & if it’s anything like Fangirl, I’ll love it

[@hannaharper2223]

I'M LOVING THE GORGEOUS SLYTHERIN GREEN AESTHETIC KEEP IT UP GIRL

[@MidnightHeir4]

I’m glad you are reading We Are Okay, that book is one of my favorite books of all time. It broke me and made me love all of the words. Nina Lacour has a way of writing that makes you feel all of the words weight. I’m so glad her book won. I’m finally getting on The Hate U Give train and I’m so hyped. Good luck with all of these books.

[@Talksalotstudio]

I read Vincent and Theo last year because I’m such a nerd when it comes to him, and I really enjoyed the voices that Deborah brought to the brothers. The letters in this book especially make it a super interesting read! I hope you like it!

[@bhavikanugo9888]

i’m so so glad you’re reading The Upside of Unrequited and The Hate U Give!! i hope you enjoy them as much as i did, and that they leave you with some food for thought bc THUG especially, makes you realise so much about this world.

[@juliamarie7073]

Oh. My. Gosh. I LOVEDDDDDD Vincent & Theo so DANG MUCH. I had the same attitude going in, but I ended up loving it with every bit of my heart. It’s STUNNING and I hope you love it, too!!!!!

[@mollycrawford6380]

I love The Upside Of Unrequited! It's so good and cute! And THUG is absolutely brilliant - it really makes you think and it's an amazing book

[@musicandloveismylive]

OMG Kat!!! I love this video!! The music, the hair, the hat, the make up, the everything!! You're the best Kat!!

[@kaiju_k5042]

Watching this on my commute home ( we’re having a snow storm lol) and I’m going to read once I get home.. you always make me hungry for books and reading. Also your lipstick is absolutely beautiful!

[@annieg.9023]

Had the most tiring day EVER and then I got the notification for the video...... THANK YOU SO MUCH KAT

[@katthebookblogger9016]

I absolutely love They Both Die at the End! The audiobook was phenomenal! 🖤

[@victoriabrosch832]

Who doesn’t have a overwhelming reading list

[@Danielkallus]

omg your green eyebrows look amazing! 💚🐍

[@libraryofautum7761]

I usually stop watching book haul videos or tbr videos but i actually watched all of this. Good job Kat

[@susanmachado9250]

I was reading than I saw a new Kat video. I just had to watch this video. Edit: I love your outfit Kat

[@frenchtoastnbooks5955]

So many books that sound fantastic! I've only read one of these, The Upside of Unrequited, but plenty of these are on my TBR (basically all of them). Good luck reading!

[@BookYourImagination]

Eliza and her Monsters was sooooo good! I hope you love it! Strange the Dreamer is really awesome, too! What Laini Taylor does with words is simply magical! The Hate U Give is also nominated for Best YA Mystery for the Edgar Awards -- it's on my TBR as well. I hear you on Vincent & Theo. But I'm glad you're giving it a try -- you never know what new gems you'll find in books, particularly when you step outside your book comfort zone. Happy reading! PS -- Love your Shamrock Green look!!! 🍀🍀🍀

[@aLilaBooks]

KAT!!!! YOU'RE LOOKING HELLA FINE!!! Seriously, the hair, the make-up, the hat...you're slaying that slytherin game.

[@bhavikanugo9888]

I LOVE THE SLYTHERIN THEME GOING ON. YOU ARE ROCKINB THAT BEAUTIFUL GREEN LIPSTICK, YOUR EYEBROWS LOOK INCREDIBLE AND YOUR HAIR MATCHES SO WELL OMG!! I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS LOOK

[@Katytastic]

THANK YOUUUU

[@crayonfactory6340]

Your look though 👌🏻 I could never pull that makeup off but girl you’re rocking it.

[@blackk_rose_]

i finished "they both die at the end" two days ago and i'm definitely far from over it. SO GOOD! it immediately became one of my all-time favs and i considered re-reading it right after, so that's saying sth. it was my first adam silvera book and now i need to read them all

[@purpleren3312]

It would be cool if you made a video about the non-fiction books that helped you kinda figure your life out! Cause I'm super struggling hard core.... also, Eliza and Her Monsters is one of my favorite books! I hope you love it!!

[@santanasg8445]

Good luck on your tbr kat! Vincent & Leo sounds really cool!

[@jhakanson5]

Yay!!! Eliza and Her Monsters is my favorite book of all time!!!! I really hope that you love it!!!

[@PixieBernadette]

I'm super excited to see what you think of Eliza and Her Monsters. I read it last year and I absolutely loved it!

[@jellyfable139]

Aaah I love your makeup!! I can't wait to hear what you think of all these books. So many of them are on my tbr as well. I super need to get to They Both Die at the End, The Upside of Unrequited, and We Are Okay. They have been waiting for me to read them for so long ;; I haven't read any of the Printz books but pretty much all of them are on my tbr. I need to get on that!

[@tomtalksbooks]

KAT YOU WILL LOVE STRANGE!! I was literally obsessed with it!! Its SUCH a beautiful story, I loved it so so much!!

[@lenasophie5455]

Really excited for the booksplosion book this month! Can't wait to join the reading with this one :)

[@alyssabaker7799]

You shouldn't be afraid to read Strange the Dreamer because it's the most beautiful book I've ever read and you are going to absolutely love it!!

[@embirdd]

I love your aesthetic in this video with the hat, the hair, the lips and the brows - love it!! I am a new subscriber and I am loving your videos!!

[@blainevanity6]

Kat uploads a video. We have been blessed again!! 💚💚💚

[@mariedrasnin2152]

I'm finally gonna read Carry On this month. You've done it. You've convinced me. You raged about it so much that I picked it up. But I like it so far!

[@artwriter76]

That's a lot of books! But I'm sure you can read them all! Eliza and Her Monsters was my favorite book of 2017. I really identified with it. Vincent and Theo sounds really interesting. Van Gogh is one of my favorite artists and he's really a tragic figure. I'm reading a lot of contemporary lately too! I read two Kasie West books in a week and am about to start a third soon. I find contemporary an easy genre to read, especially when experiencing a reading slump. Have a good reading month!

[@nash5262]

I love your entire look in this video. Even the color of your eyebrows has me shook.

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

YOUR LOOK IN THIS VIDEO SLAY ME GIRL!!! Good luck with the reading!!

[@Katytastic]

thank you thank you

[@michaelbooklion7824]

AH OMG ANOTHER SURPRISE KAT VIDEO WE DONT DESERVE THIS

[@micahsthoughts6054]

I’m loving the Slytherin look! And that looks like an awesome tbr.

[@nerdtastic2014]

I just read The Long Way Down and loved it! I listened to the author reading the audiobook while I read along in a physical copy.

[@brigutierrez5249]

You look so fabulously Slytherin, Kat! For some reason I thought you'd already read They Both Die at the End... it's pretty good, I think you'll really like it. Sending you lots of good reading vibes your way for your monthly TBR. I know I only have 2-3 books I set for myself each month and sometimes they can be really freaking hard to make myself read them.... and some of them are re-reads so it honestly should be that hard but something about it being almost "assigned" to me in a month makes me go into full on procrastination mode.... Also, the audiobook for The Hate U Give is fabulous if you'd like to get it done that way :)

[@flora22511]

Strange the Dreamer is soo good!! I have about 30 pages left and I will go right back to it after finishing your video!

[@LucieReads]

The green look is amazing :) I think you'll definitely really enjoy Eliza & Her Monsters and THUG, happy reading Kat :)

[@AngieTomlinson35]

Loving the green lipstick Kat

[@glitteracido]

I'M LIVING FOR YOUR HAIR I'm thinking of rereading THUG bc it's sooooooo goooood, and I have the ebook version of TBDATE so I NEED to read it which is kinda hard bc I'm trying to get out of a reading slump but you gotta do what you gotta do

[@waimon6662]

I usually don't read fantasy but I bought Strange the Dreamer because I saw it in one of your videos a while back (and also because of the BEAUTIFUL cover), and I just started reading it a few days ago. And I must say I'm LOVING IT !! can't wait for your review !!

[@zaheersiddiqui4678]

Kat I take a vow - I shall forever be your Soul/reading/fanboy/booktube/ Lover . You look FREAKING AWESOME GORGEOUS

[@CarryonDancing]

Strange the Dreamer was my first Laini Taylor book and the first book I read this year and BOY WAS IT GREAT. It was so good and it wrecked me a little bit and I’m dying for The Muse of Nightmares. I need it. I think you’ll love it.

[@evandicesare]

Omg Eliza and Her Monsters is so good! I flew through it, and I’m sure you will too!

[@fabulousbookfiend9127]

I've read We Are Ok and The Hate U Give but I have Vincent and Theo on my TBR and now I'm going to get along Way Down because it sounds excellent!

[@alterbun]

loving all the Slytherin vibes--and I super love the idea of reading all the Printz awards honorees, that's such a cool way to push your comfort zone

[@whitescarlet12]

Yay! You're using the Slytherin lippie! Looks good Kat! Loving the Slytherin-ambitious theme hahaha!

[@erinmariecece]

Most o these books are on my immediate tbr too, I loved Upside last year, it's super diverse and adorable.

[@graceless7718]

I am currently reading Vincent and Theo, and I am really enjoying it so far.

[@jananiananthanarayanan4794]

Whoooaaaa Kat thanks for blessing us with a video! Good luck with your tbr that is now mine too :D

[@bhavikanugo9888]

i wish i could even have a plan to read so many books but sadly this is exam season for me. i’m so interested in a lot of the books you spoke about today, and i hope you enjoy all of them (not only for you, but also for me since i can’t lol)

[@showtimesynergy87]

Long Way Down! That was such an amazing book!!!

[@tlrolls]

I loved Eliza and her Monsters! It has good Anxiety rep and it’s a love letter to fandom as well.

[@rachelralph6080]

Eliza and her monsters is so good!! One of my favourite reads of 2017!

[@thesonicmaestro]

You gotta read Call Me By Your Name which I just finished reading. The book is short and BEAUTIFUL and I can understand why this book would win an Oscar for best adapted screenplay. I legit want to reread it already hahahaha 👌🏼 Good luck with your TBR!

[@mollyfrank4565]

Omg yay! I have been waiting eagerly for your thoughts on Strange the Dreamer! ❤️

[@maddiauble7841]

This look is everything omg girl love it.

[@AClockworkReader]

I'm living for the Slytherin vibes in this video 💚

[@Heyitsbisma]

Most of the books you wanted to read are the books I want to get to. Love you Kat 💙

[@carolinetaylor6988]

Kat I love your hair so much! Also your makeup is awesome

[@maiasitter677]

Hahaha. I'm so happy that you mentioned the Doctor Who episode! I saw you hold up the book and instantly wanted it...because of the Doctor Who episode about Vinvent Von Gogh. That episode made me cry.

[@kayleebowman608]

Oh my gosh we are okay is AMAZING

[@NjIceTea]

your shelves are freakin on point, props

[@emilyhanks5163]

I really need to get on the Strange The Dreamer train! Sounds like such a great book! xx

[@donnaswift4035]

Currently reading the Vincent and Theo book. I LOVE her. Charles and Emma was delightful. This one is not as entertaining in that way but still very interesting. It really makes one think about those difficult family members and how families have to deal with them. Work through this one.

[@bridgembooks3694]

YESSSSSS!!!! I’m very excited for you to read Strange the Dreamer :))) Also the Hate U Give has been my favorite book of 2018 so far.

[@jedibookmasterivy]

WE ARE OKAY is absolutely a stunning read!

[@qrysthml6275]

love your hair and makeup!💚

[@AButifulNerdyNightmare]

The Vincent and the Doctor, Doctor Who episode is my top 3 fave episodes! You just won me over with a Doctor Who reference!

[@allstarnewt]

Wow, I'm super into this look.

[@lemondedesapotille5224]

Can't wait to hav your opinion on 'They both die at the end' ! It's on my wish list !!

[@booknerdtori7103]

Kat! I'm digging the Slytherin vibes you're projecting my way! Also, I need to read Strange the Dreamer too. As soon as you said Sequel and release date I kind of sweated.

[@MariaMightReadThat]

Damn, green looks good on you. I'm hoping to read Strange the Dreamer this month too! It's my first time reading Laini Taylor so I'm super excited. :)

[@tessavery2151]

The Upside of Unrequited is amazing! I hope you love it...

[@SamReevesWrites]

I am a huge fan of Van Gogh--starting with that Doctor Who episode. So, I'm really looking forward to reading Vincent & Theo. Thanks for letting us know about it. Love the green, by the way.

[@larasabbag9657]

YEEESSS KAT READ THEM AAAALLLLLLLL (specially Strange The Dreamer, it's EPIC)

[@natscorner]

Wow Kat good luck with your TBR, I think you should make Strange the Dreamer and The Hate U Give priority as you love Laini Taylor so that's a given and read THUG as it is an amazing books and I personally loved it and read it in a day :)

[@annfranco2707]

You have such a fun personality to watch! You just gained a new sub :)

[@rosaedelstein7328]

„We are okay“ was the best book I read last year . ❤️
