May Book Haul 2 - Bigger, Longer, Bookier

[@jennifercarter7746]

Your excitement of books is addicting! Love it!

[@faithloucks1625]

Love hero's of Olympus series

[@taniachristina7740]

Anna dressed in blood and obsidian are both amazing books, Jennifer l Armentrout is one of my favourite authors

[@foreverkate119]

After watching your videos I always have that thought inside my head.... so....many.....more...books....to.....read. I wish I could just have your library you have such good taste!

[@cassidysmith408]

When she said Erin Morgenstern, I was like what the heck?! Is he related to Valentine?! 😂😂

[@Pridecat88]

I just read Anna dressed in blood. And it was great. :) I've been wanting to read The vampire Academy. I've read bloodline and loved it. I read The Night Circus long time ago and remember liking it.

[@ReadingMissFroggy]

The Night Circus is such an amazing book :D I got it as a birthday present from my best friend last year and it probably was the best present ever, such a great book

[@chboskyy]

Yeah, you would know what was going to happen! There are some differences, and the time of the books is shifted around a bit at times like I mentioned earlier, but for the most part it's very accurate!

[@syedaumar1491]

I want to read the Kane Chronicles; I grew up with my mom teaching me about ancient Egypt. I haven't read any Rick Riordan books before, so I think this will be a opening for more of his books.

[@BooksFriends]

So happy to watch your old videos.

[@cgward]

Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children!!! I was just walking around my library one day and i looked at the new arrivals and there it sat, it seemed like an angelic choir was playing on the loudspeakers, i instantly fell in love with it, from the moment his grandpa died to the very last scenes were the children are leaving the house to stay with one of Miss Peregrine's friends!!! (i hope that didn't spoil anything!) my favorite scene was when Jacob and Emma kissed in the water by the boat!!!

[@moelester4820]

Whats your monthly budget on books?

[@skyjadeshe]

I'd recommend reading all the books first and then watching the show. There's just too much that you're at risk of spoiling accidently for yourself by watching and reading together and the books had far more suspense and impact in my opinion so definitely start there!

[@hello.pickle]

I LOOOOVE The Night Circus!!! It's so magical and wonderful and amazing

[@Farlene]

So, so ecstatic that I came across this channel!! Now I have a guide to help me shop for more books! Yay!

[@kaylabwayo831]

No one on book tube talks about maximum ride series and its amazing. Has anyone read it?

[@janelkatherine]

I have read the comic versions! Only because I was not aware that they were novels :(

[@LezbeOswald]

I've read it and I love it so much. Such an underrated series, especially since it was written by currently the number one bestselling author in the world, apparently

[@janettecast2401]

Yes. I read nevermore!!!!

[@xThisCityisatWarx]

I have read all 8 of them! Though me and by best friend have a theory that he actually only wrote the first 3 himself then had ghost riders write the others because they just feel like bad fanfiction

[@kaylabwayo831]

Jessica Albee u mean how there was a lot of romance

[@jessicafletcher6978]

only recently i've gotten into proper reading and i just need recommendations of what to read because i'm running out of books to read your bookshelf is so cool! :)

[@reinali9716]

If you like Rick Riordan, I think he wrote The Maze of Bones in The 39 Clues series. It's a pretty long series (10 books) and has a sequel-ish series called Vespers vs Cahills.

[@rbgg2010]

I started reading the GOT books after watching the show. Both are great. I enjoy reading the books and seeing just how much they've kept in the TV show...

[@amessagetothefuture4926]

Definitely read them first. Each book roughly corresponds to a series but there are some things brought forward or adjusted which can sometimes be a pain.

[@BookworminBarrie]

If it just has 2 books in the series, it is called a duology :)

[@Shaad2321]

I would also recommend reading the A song of ice and fire books first before watching the show!

[@CreationistRamblings]

The HBO show Game of Thrones just makes you want to read the books even more! Maybe watch the first season before you get started. It follows the first book very closely but its also very motivational in pushing you through the longness of the books. In my experience the on screen version is more electric and compelling and it will get you hooked faster than the books will. Once your a fan of the show reading the books will be a breeze! :)

[@thariena]

You have bought so many of the books that I'm also excited about. Now I want to read them even more. Have a good reading time!

[@Fallon90]

The Night Circus is my favorite book of all time! I probably mention it in 50% of my videos. :) and im gonna have to fight you for Adrian. lol jk but for real, if you think you love him in the VA series, just wait until you read Bloodlines.

[@CarniverousKassiRawr]

Mrs. Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children now has a squeal. It comes out later this month!

[@ReadingMartin]

You could read A Game of Thrones and then watch the first season or if you have problems keeping track of all the characters you could watch and read kind of simultaneously? The show works as a visual aid sometimes. In the end it's really about how much spoilers affect you. The first season it's pretty close to the books, but in season 2 they start to take a few more liberties with characters, plots and timelines.

[@Chrisralonso]

The Night Circus was beautiful, and I loved Shadow and Bone. Leigh is coming to town, so I'm excited. I've also been wanting to get Miss Peregrine's, and I might soon.

[@aabatteryful]

I saw the thumbnail and almost screamed because HEROES OF OLYMPUS!! The 4th book cover just got released too! Also, Knife of Never Letting Go is AMAZING!! Read it really really really soon!

[@KerichXZ]

Great books! :) I love how organized your bookshelf is an looks!

[@cassidy_reads]

For the Game of Thrones show on HBO, the first season is Book 1, the second season is Book 2 (A Clash of Kings) and season 3 is Book 3 part 1 (so half of the third book). Great haul!

[@hcdragoncat]

Obsidian is a great book ! I have read it and fallen in love with it !

[@joseywhitehead5640]

What is the heoros of Olympus covers called

[@israarock8389]

How long does it take you to finish a book? And when did you find your love for books?

[@Nerezza900]

I read the first two books of the Kane chronicles and you know what I was so distressed trying to figure which series is better. I absolutely love both of the series the Kane chronicles were in my opinion more hilarious but had the same level of craziness.

[@magister343]

The first season of Game of Thrones is aligns only to the first book in a Song of Ice and Fire (plus things added to make it sexier). The second season of the show aligns almost as well to the second book. After that things start getting mixed up a lot more. This will be even more true in the future seasons, as the first half of the 5th book describes things happening simultaneously with the events of the 4th book.

[@maybelabeled]

I'm so excited to see your reviews on the books of The Heroes of Olympus. And OMG, so many books.

[@priestessmikokikyo77]

i think a book and a sequel is called a duology!

[@ABookReader]

The first season of Game of thrones is based on the FIRST book, so the season correlates with book number. Season 2 is based on the second book and so on.

[@kevinpatrickcarey3741]

awesome collection I don't read much and whatever I read is usually digital (Kindle, Kobo) or audiobooks. I do have about 20 physical books but they are all military or science based. I am not saying this in competition but my sister is the biggest book collector I know. She has 2500 actual physical books.

[@laurenconnolly1126]

In the game of thrones every one chapter of so equals an episode. Every season equals a book. :)

[@TheBlindFates]

not entirely true. Season 3 is the first half of the third book, and season 4 is the second half (they used to be 2 separate books), but the show doesn't strictly follow the books. for some characters, the story jumps ahead. my advice to anyone still new to the show and the books who wants to do both, read the books first. all of them, then go watch the show.

[@laurenconnolly1126]

oops. haha sorry but thanks for explaining

[@Brightstarpie]

right now I am reading the third book in the Bloodlines series and it is amazing!!!! Richelle Mead is a genius when it comes to writing these characters!!!!

[@LittleMissBookWorm27]

OMG sooo many books!!! Real jealous of you!!! I'm thinking about starting the other series by Rick Riordan as well! Hope you enjoy all these awesome reads! x

[@zzzbunnyzzz7794]

a song of ice and fire: each season belongs to a book game of thrones= 1 season clash of kings = season 2 and so forth

[@Saturn1224]

You should watch the show and then read the books, this is the only series where I do this, it helps me much more to understand everything and kind of have an image of who is who in this world. There are so many characters that it is insane!

[@1alazydaisy]

May, too, has been my biggest book buying month for this year Kat. So far I've brought 23 books, but at least they were all bargain buys. Right? However, I am going to slow down on buying now b/c Amazon has gone up a considerable amount on all YA books. It's now given me reason to read a lot of my what I already have on my shelves!

[@HejMette]

Have you read Looking for Alaska? Your background really reminds me of the way Alaskas dorm room looks, just neater.

[@sadomirth]

I just started blood promise last night. I so want to try Obsidian as well.

[@EmilyHornburg]

SO MANY THINGS! 1) I just finished the 3rd GoT book last night & OMG I CANT WAIT FOR YOU TO START THEM! I read a book, then watch the season of the TV show. Just be ready to be depressed. I might have randomly started crying at work yesterday because of it. 2) Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children- I've had it on my Kindle for FOREVER and haven't started yet. 3)THE NIGHT CIRCUS!!!!!! One of my all time faves EVER. Just go read right now. NOW NOW NOW!

[@velvetpioneer]

You are going to love The Night Circus. It is so intricate and amazing and the plot is wonderful, the characters are freaking great, and ugh, the writing is really smooth and flows really well. You should do a review for it after you finish it.

[@ElserDream]

Hi Kat! :D If I were you, I would read the first three books of "A Song of Ice and Fire" before watching the series; I think you'll probably enjoy them more in that way. I. Absolutely. Need. Shadow and Bone. (And also Vampire Academy Books xD) PD: I was just wondering... Did you buy all those 19 books by your own money!? O.O PD2: Hugs from Spain. :D

[@Rachelw]

Similar situation, I'm just getting into Game of Thrones too. I read the first book about a week ago then I watched all of season one right after, which was a mistake for me because my emotions were still too raw. It made me a little crazy knowing what happens while watching the show(who betrays who and that). For A Clash of Kings I'm reading and watching the show at the same time. There is a lot less screaming at the TV now that I don't know whats happening too far ahead.

[@BigDaddyZakk420]

The show GOT pretty much goes one season per book; so far at least. So the best way to go about it would be to read book one, then watch the first season, and so on and so forth. Hope that helps : ) Awesome video by the way, keep it up ! Also, do you read mainly fantasy or what ? It sort of seems like it, from this video at least. If you enjoy really great beatnik era authors and are up for a challenge, give William Burroughs' Naked Lunch a go sometime. One of my favorite books of all time.

[@TheLilyinc]

What are the books on your shelf after Mocking Jay but before Unearthly? They are pretty and driving me crazy.

[@WhittyNovels]

Obsidian isn't a trilogy, it has 5 books, but only 3 are out :)

[@Shaad2321]

AWESOME! You got A Song of Ice and Fire! These books are brilliant. I think you will love them. At the moment I am rereading The clash of kings (2nd book)!Hopefully you can get around to reading it soon! Good luck with all that reading! Its should be a lot of FUN!

[@catherineholmes3222]

I'm still waiting very patiently for the 4 book for obsidian. It comes out in August

[@KiandraChan]

About Game of thrones: Read book 1, then watch season 1 of the show! Read book 2, then watch season 2 and finally read book 3, and then watch season 3, that it's not completed yet, but almost. Easy enough! Have fun!

[@jsu22]

The Knife Of Never Letting Go.. IS FRICKIN AMAZING

[@miraculus4204]

i've completed the percy jackson books (and also heroes of olympus) but im still two minded about the kane chronicles bcs im hearing mixed reviews?. kat? have you read them? did you like them? pls someone help

[@avianaodah8724]

Riarda Murseli it's REALLY GOOD🤘

[@masonkreitlow458]

Riarda Murseli yes amazing series

[@avianaodah8724]

Games are Mine nobody cares

[@wd3185]

Riarda Murseli Honestly, The Kane Chronicles is my favorite series that he's written (PJ&O is a very, very, VERY close second)

[@ayeam3710]

Riarda Murseli I read 1st first book and I liked it but I didn't want to read the second book

[@cardan4662]

If you have children, they will be so lucky to have a mother as awesome as you AND have all those books to read!!

[@mysteriousmessages]

OBSIDIAN!!! So amazing ahhh! I'm "patiently" waiting for the 4th book in the series to come out hopefully in August!

[@RDStudios]

Always always read the book before watching the movie or tv show. The Walking Dead is much more fun to watch knowing what happened in the books and the new surprises the show brings to the story.

[@LisaShalders]

The Night Circus is my favourite book I've read this year!!!! So. Freaking. Good. Hope you love it!!!

[@TheDobby321]

The Knife of Never Letting Go is awesome! Also, I've heard a series with only 2 books called a duology.

[@CarooLovegood]

and about Game of Thrones: season 1 is based on Game of Thrones, season 2 is based on Clash of Kings, but season 3 is based on Storm of Swords and Dance with Dragons, so if you've already read first two books you can watch first two season, but if you want to watch season 3 read whole series.

[@1LillyClark]

I agree with Amber L, read the books 1st. I think it will help you understand the characters thought process better. I'm watching the TV show after reading all of the books and I don't know how people understand the characters actions without reading the books first.

[@girlthatlaughs]

The Knife of Never Letting Go is amazing yay!

[@161616princess]

miss peregrine's home for peculiar children was such an amazing book! i read it about a year ago and have been waiting for the sequel to come out!! :)

[@kGobe99]

For A Song Of Ice And Fire, one book corresponds to one season. So the first book would be Season One and so forth.

[@supermereturns]

Yey, so excited you're gonna finish VA. You're gonna love it! I bet!

[@lizabeth003]

There's a book that comes after Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children called Hollow City.

[@marycole4367]

So, since you have a peeve against book covers that do not match...how did you feel about the variations in the Harry Potter series American covers?

[@VincentsAbyss]

I would read all of the books in one go because you may get so caught up in the show you may want to watch the next season without reading! I think the show does a good job with staying true to the books, but of course not everything can be the same!

[@RhiannonSkerrysloggett]

I see you have a LOT of hard covers I was just wondering if you prefer them to paper backs as they are more durable and you can't break the spines.

[@rekajeckel7229]

You should do a bookshelf tour

[@KyraBowlby]

Can u do a book shelf tour?

[@TheHorrorQueer]

Hey, I was wondering if you've read the 'Wicked Years' series by Gregory Maguire and what your thoughts are. If you haven't read them, I highly reccomend the books

[@DeAnne19]

If there are only two books in the series you can call it a duology. Miss Peregrine's is awesome and I really didn't find it creepy, it actually really surprised me...though totally bummed that the sequel won't be out for a while.

[@PaigeBradish]

I finally just picked up Obsidian and the plot may seem a little iffy but its such a good book!

[@cleaber]

A very entertaining video. Where do you put all your books.

[@kazzerism]

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children is really good! I also have the same Game of Thrones boxset and I've been meaning to start it for ages. Actually, I have started the first book a couple times, I just find it's hard to be in the mood for, personally.

[@rebeccabowen6848]

I loved Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children! I read it in like a day. It's so good!

[@kenralston7824]

Is this Alyson Hannigan?

[@faelwynsilverwing5522]

She definitely looks like Alyson doesn't she?

[@SuperCrazyGirlfriend]

***** very much so!!

[@LuisRosa72]

That was my first thought the moment I saw her!

[@maraskywalkeriii]

That was awesome. However, I do see another bookshelf in your future. Crowded bookshelves, and a need to hide my own addiction, are just a couple of reasons why I love ebooks. But Hard backs. I love them! If I could afford I would run a bookstore that only sold hard backs, and I would go out of business very quickly.

[@BrittanyReadsThings]

I hope you do a review of Mrs. Peregrine's!! I read it and I thought it was just okay, so I'd love to hear what you think!! :)

[@exploringallgenres]

So many great books. Loved Anna Dressed In Blood. You might regret not buying the second book, Girl of Nightmares, since you will want to read it right after finishing the first. And I'm sorry I laughed so hard at the end "I almost just tripped and died".

[@lmrlmr9]

In the back of the shelf there is a book and I think it's called "Supernatural"? Does it have to do with the CW show? Does anyone know? I've been watching the video straining my eyes, and I'm pretty sure that's what it says. Thank you xx

[@kellster20]

Because the Game of Thrones books are so long, I would recommend reading a book and then watching that season, and so on! Although there are only 3 seasons on tv so far...

[@ZACKWOLFWALKER]

I think I am a little late to post, but did you read demigod files and demigod diaries? The go with the Percy Jackson series

[@color0her0wonderful]

With the Vampire Academy, shit is about to go down. I want to say I read them about a year ago. My mind is still blown. So GOOD!

[@eidechsebernstein954]

Chaos Walking, The Night Circus and A Song of Ice and Fire in one video? Those books. Those books.

[@Littlepigbookshop]

So if I read the books, I will know what's going on in the show too,right? Or it's like those series that just have the same first storyline and then change the end?// sorry, my grammar sucks. ;(

[@AngelicaM2009]

I absolutely loved Obsidian! I hope you do as well! Great books!!

[@nyxfairy6538]

The HoO and the PJ series are both amazing. They are one of my fav series of all time. But one question. If you have HoO are they hardcovers or paperback?

[@abbywithrow6291]

Did you like the matched series

[@TheMattGrimes]

I chuckled when she said she was excited to see more of Percy and Annabeth in The Heroes of Olympus. That won't be coming for a few more books, my dear...

[@janelledupont2481]

have you read rebels island by rick riordan

[@n_wallmann]

"Miss Peregrine's home for peculiar children" is AWESOME! I love this book *_*

[@carrieweathers5799]

Do you start. One book and then get in another book?
