[@bookgal4539]

You upload so much thank you for the great videos

[@MerrilyKristin]

Thank you!

[@WolverinaWorld]

I bought Red, White & Royal Blue based on your recommendation and I’m so excited to read it this summer!

[@kathievolk6128]

So far this year I have read 80 books. An Absolutely Remarkable thing has been one of my favorites. Didn't see it coming but it stuck with me and can't wait to reread it annually!!

[@MerrilyKristin]

That's fantastic!!! And I totally agree re: AART! I was not expecting to love it the way I did!

[@alexalovesbooks]

I would totally give multiple answers too, because I can’t help myself 😂 I really have to get to Daisy Jones! Soon, hopefully. And all the love for Red, White and Royal Blue! Loved that book so much... and really want to reread it 😂

[@lovekatie3528]

I definitely talked a lot about Red, White, and Royal Blue in my video too! I think it's such a standout this year and truly deserves all the hype it's been getting!

[@MerrilyKristin]

I couldn't agree more!

[@sanjochick88]

I absolutely surprisingly loved An Absolutely Remarkable thing!!

[@MerrilyKristin]

Same! I was not expecting to love it as much as I did!

[@BookaholicsAnonymous]

I agree with fame fate and the first kiss by Kasie west . I usually enjoy her books, and I thought with it having a bit of mystery to it. I would like it, but it came up a bit flat on that aspect of it.

[@WritteninBlood]

You are very energetic! I loved this video and am now a new subscriber to your channel. I can't wait to see more from you.

[@BeautifullyBookishBethany]

Everyone has been loving Sorcery of Thorns! I'm going to have to try it. I was also surprised at how much I enjoyed Absolutely Remarkable Things.

[@MerrilyKristin]

I think you'll love Sorcery! I would be curious to hear your thoughts about it!

[@NarutoUzumaki-mb4bq]

I finished one Readathon from Books and Writing Amino. In the last year one I finished the Fall Readathon. And then from there I also Finished the 53 Books fir 53 Days without being on the IPad and on the Phone. That took one Month. And could you upload a Review on the Templar Revelation? Ot is about the Priory of Sion.

[@rebekahmackenzie]

I can't wait for The Toll to come out!

[@MerrilyKristin]

Me either!

[@NovelInk]

I’m still so happy you ended up loving AART when your finally picked it up!!! RWRB is one of my favorites of the year so far for sure. Yes to Always Never Yours and Megan being the best main character! I also love all of the characters that you mentioned (Max forever 💛)! I’m so excited to read 10 Blind Dates after hearing you loved it! Ahhhh, can’t wait for the Diviners buddy read and for you to finally read the third book!

[@MerrilyKristin]

Yes!!! I'm so glad you all got me hyped for RW&RB and that it totally surpassed my expectations even still! I really hope you love 10 Blind Dates too! It was such a great read! And I cannnnnnnnot wait to read the third Diviners book either!!!

[@meltotheany]

I love this entire video and all your answers! You are going to be the reason I pick up Daisy Jones, btw, just saying! I can't wait to read The Diviners with you soooon! And that Anne of Green Gables edition? Holy moly! I love! ❤ xx

[@BasicallyBrittx]

Yesssss so happy you loved Daisy Jones so much as well! It's my faaaave book of this year! I can't wait to reread it and annotate everything That ending :((( Why have I never really heard of Sorcery of Thorns before?! It sounds amazing! I'm so sad I never got the Lady Midnight Waterstones Exclusive edition because now it's impossible to get your hands on so I don't think I'll be buying the other books in this edition unfortunately. But they are so super gorgeous though

[@MerrilyKristin]

OMG I know! It's crazy how hard it is to find Lady Midnight in that edition!! You never know though, I know someone who found one on ebay for a reasonable price (but she was checking every single day for it!)

[@midnightrose6868]

I literally just realized that 3 of my most anticipated books of the year will be coming out a month after each other (Dark Dawn in September, Ninth House in October, and Queen of Nothing in November)! I only wish that V.E. Scwab’s next adult novel were coming out in December. 😊 I’ve also heard great things about Elle Kennedy. Will have to pick up The Deal.

[@MerrilyKristin]

Oh wow! You have an amazing Fall ahead of you! I wish Victoria's next book were coming out this year too!

[@WildeBookGarden]

I also still need to get to We Hunt the Flame! I really like this tag's questions--I need to do it this year before it's too late to be considered mid-year! haha YES I feel like I become a more emotional reader the older I get! lol

[@MerrilyKristin]

Yesss I would love to watch yours!!

[@dbookdragon]

Its definitely been a contemporary year for you so far!!!

[@MerrilyKristin]

I really has been!

[@witchf4ce310]

I was expecting to ADORE Red White and Royal Blue but I’m hating how extremely focused the book is on American politics. Like it’s focusing more on that than the romance so far, and I just don’t care... I’m seriously thinking about DNFing it for now 😩 I don’t get how no one else seems to dislike how the politics is at the forefront, like if I wanted political propaganda I would read some presidential memoir or something lol

[@MerrilyKristin]

I totally get that! I had said in my review that it was a bit too politics heavy for my taste, but overall I just loved the characters so much that the political parts ended up not bothering as much as I thought they would.

[@witchf4ce310]

Super Space Chick I’ve missed that, sorry! Ah okay maybe I’ll feel the same when I get further into it but I’m kinda stuck at the moment :/

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

Yes we love Daisy in this house!!

[@MerrilyKristin]

YASSSS

[@FiMilton]

I just hit my reading goal of 50 books! I’m hoping I can do 75 by the end of the year 😃

[@MerrilyKristin]

That's amazing!! Congratulations!

[@sanjochick88]

Cute earrings

[@MaryAmongStories]

i'm currently reading An Absolutely Remarkable Thing! great video :))

[@courtneyc8303]

I guess I'm in the minority here, but Daisy Jones & the Six is one of the worst books I've read (listened to) this year. :( The characters were just beyond horrible and unlikable. To the point that it made me angry.

[@georgiefarr1094]

I need to finish as much Cassandra Clare books as I can. I'll let you know what books from her I've finished by the end of the year. Love your top and earrings by the way 😘😘😘

[@MerrilyKristin]

Thank you!
