[@spiritedreviewexc]

There's a kid involved in "The Wishing Game" so you'll probably love it. I really enjoyed it. Loving your book videos!!

[@jessmmassey]

omg yay now I'm even more excited for it!!!

[@GM-tu7di]

I absolutely LOVED Funny Story too!!! ❤

[@hannahamendola-or4rp]

wait i feel like you read my mind when you talked about remembering how books make you feel rather than like plot details and stuff!!! im the same way!

[@sarahvoorhees]

Just found your channel today and am so excited to follow you. I follow several booktubers and of the three videos of yours I watched I relate to you the most in life stage, interests, opinions and more. Looking forward to watching more of your videos!

[@jessmmassey]

🥹🫶 this made my day! Thank you for being here!

[@daydreaminjolie139]

[@lulun1669]

[@jessmmassey]

🥲🫶 thank yoooou!

[@lifeinchapterss]

Found your videos in my suggested and we have such similar taste. Just subscribed Just for the Summer was amazing and Funny Story is on my tbr this month.

[@lovablereader1]

Miles was also my favorite!! He is relatonship goals for sure

[@jessmmassey]

He felt so real to me! Like it really didn't feel like I was reading about a fictional character, lol!

[@Abbi2000]

I just found your channel and have yet to find someone that cant remember details even if it’s your favorite book. That made me feel so seen lol😂 I’m so glad I found another book channel to binge!

[@jessmmassey]

honestly I'm glad it's not just me hahah 🫶

[@Kischa07]

Jess! I haven’t watched a video of yours in what feels like forever!!! I had no idea you became a mom and umm hello books books books! Just got into reading again! Soooo goooood

[@jessmmassey]

hiiiiiii! yes, living the mom life over here and honestly loving it! I'm so excited to be creating bookish content...it's such a fun hobby for me! Thank you for watching 🥲

[@CulinaryCrime]

I am sad we didn't get to see the snoring dog. 😂

[@jessmmassey]

next time, promise! lol

[@sohini13ful]

i keep seeing your videos pop-up in my suggested videos and might as well subscribe to u! so I did, just now! i loved your clear your cart videos!!! as soon as my pink bookcase starts to fill up, I'll get a book cart!!!

[@rachelmondo682]

I feel the exact same about Emily Henry (Beach Read and Funny Story girlie)! I couldn’t figure out why some of her books fell so flat for me and your relatability explanation is so right! ❤

[@ReaderandWriter.]

I pulled up my Audible and clicked on The Seven Year Slip and the narrator says "Poe-ston." Not Pawston. Mystery solved, get back to the van, gang. :D

[@jessmmassey]

okay you are a real one...I'm gonna try to commit this to memory, lol!

[@ReaderandWriter.]

@@jessmmassey make a small piece of art with Edgar Allan Poe on it and put the Poe and the 'Ston at the end. 🤣Or a post it on your cart "For the millionth time: It's Poe-ston, not Paw-ston" As I type this, it's like Bah-ston, Bow-ston. Oh, geeze, just see me out the door.

[@MollieMason]

Omg such a fun bookie video 📚😍 love it Jess! You're the cutest ever! I just started listening to Funny Story on audiobook on Libby while I breastfeed Teags right now 🎧🥰

[@jessmmassey]

Omg the amount of books I read while I was breastfeeding 😂👏🏼 I hope you love Funny Story as much as I did! Grateful for you, Mollie!

[@MollieMason]

@@jessmmassey I knowww I had a fantasy of reading my Kindle while nursing but it just hasn't worked out as well as I thought, so plugging one Airpod in to listen to an audiobook while just staring at her is the best 😍🥰

[@emilyeholbrook]

Funny story was soooooo good!!! I just read it on vacay a couple weeks ago ❤

[@jessmmassey]

Ahhh I’m so glad you loved it too 🤭 I have a feeling I’ll be re-reading it eventually!

[@rosebud7233]

I can’t wait to read Funny story! Just for the summer is also my favorite sequel I’ve read so far this year. It’s so good! My favorite book that I’ve read so far this year is The Guncle by Steven Rowley, but I’m 70% of the way through Banyan Moon by Thao Thai, and I think that one might take the top spot when I finish it. What has been your biggest disappointment so far this year? Mine is divine rivals by Rebecca Ross.

[@jessmmassey]

Just for the Summer is pure perfection!!! Biggest disappointment for me would have to be Wildfire by Hannah Grace I think 😅

[@rosebud7233]

Interesting. Have you read icebreaker? If so, did you like that one more? I have not read either, but probably will at some point.

[@abrareads]

I loved Powerless as well. Do i need to read the novella before i read Reckless?

[@jessmmassey]

No! It’s Adena’s story - just a little bonus but not necessary to continue the series I don’t think 🫶🏼

[@ReaderandWriter.]

Oliviareadsalatte has an old cat and you can hear her making all sorts of noises. It's just fine and we're here for it. :D

[@jessmmassey]

You honestly can’t beat background noises from cute pets 🥹

[@ssd1453]

new subscriber- also a mom and we have similar taste!! xoxo

[@jessmmassey]

Yay, welcome! I appreciate you being here 🫶🏼

[@user-gu9rc4qw6v]

Thx for sharing, do you keep a reading journal if so, do you care to share. I’d love to see it.

[@ReyDayami]

Just dropping by to tell you that I love your fun personality! Also, may you please add a comment about clean or spicy on your book reviews/recommendations? 😌

[@jessmmassey]

Thank you 🥲🫶🏼 I will try to remember to do that when I do my monthly check-ins!

[@katiebuckingham1090]

What do you use to edit your videos?

[@jessmmassey]

iMovie 🫶🏼

[@spiritedreviewexc]

I love the Lakefront Billionairs, but i didn't love Dillia. I'm exited for Love Unwritten. Need more Raffie in my life we love grumpy father trope. You cheating on Julian?! *Gasp*

[@Joandlyndon]

Okay I am loooooving these videos, Jess! They’re so fun!!! Also, I’m not a mom but I LOVED Ready or Not. 🥹 it was so darn sweet and one of the best books I read this year! So cute!!!

[@jessmmassey]

After I filmed this I was like WAIT I FORGOT HOW MUCH OF AN ANGEL SHEP WAS -- and for a split second, I thought I should change my answer to "newest crush" but I decided to stick with Miles 😂

[@Joandlyndon]

@@jessmmassey hahaha no for real he was ADORABLE 🥹
