Your videos are so comforting to me. If sunshine were a person, it’d be you 😊💛

[@battybean]

that’s the nicest thing omg thank you😭🫶🏻

[@effrayechilde1363]

I love your book videos. I have found some favorite authors through your recommendations.

[@battybean]

that’s so cool!!🥹

[@BelleStreetBoyz]

Yayyy I'm so happy you did this tag again! I loved your video last year. 😸💜🌻✨

[@milazackrisson6120]

LOVE your book content ❤❤❤ and makeup content as well of course. x

[@NicoleWrth]

Manon is also my favorite character in the throne of glass series! She is absolutely fantastic. I also really love Yrene! But tbh I feel like all female characters in the throne of glass series are amazing! I also like the male characters, but I think the female ones are just exceptionally well written.

[@battybean]

they’re so top tier!

[@sherig1376]

📚 Keep the book videos coming!

[@reneeeasley]

Omg you are gonna love funny story! She needs to put out those paper backs asap😅

[@reissval]

Caraval and Once Upon a Broken Heart are on my TBR. I picked up Once Upon a Broken Heart in paperback, but didn't know it was recommended to read Caraval first. Thanks!

[@jodyk8504]

Caraval and Once Upon a Broken Heart, are my favorite series. It is just a fun ride, not deep or to be taken too seriously. I hope you enjoy it.

[@battybean]

so excited!

[@michelehartshaw8659]

So far this year I have loved quite a few books. This month has been too many books over 600 pages. I did love the Butcher and the black bird and leather and lark, waiting on book 3 for the finale. Just for the summer was so good and fast paced, there's just so many good releases. I unlike you couldn't wait for funny story to come out in paper back and I am starting this today along with Flock from Katie Stewart. 😘💜📚

[@battybean]

i’ve heard such great things about funny story so enjoy!!🖤

[@tracyirwine1402]

The Girls by Lisa Jewell is great, I'm currently reading City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab and so far I'm really enjoying it. Love these videos as it's great to find new recommendations and authors I haven't read before. Take care ❤️❤️📖📖

[@battybean]

Oooo thanks for the rec!

[@mirandarstudstill]

Definitely loved the Throne of Glass series! I current just finished Powerless by Lauren Roberts and I highly recommend it!! Awaiting her new book Reckless soon! I have started on The Serpent and the Wings of Night by Carissa Broadbent and so far it’s been pretty good!! 📚❤

[@battybean]

those are both ones i want to eventually get to!

[@BooksWithJudy]

I started MP and I am so torn, I usually dont dnf books so quickly ... but this gave me the ick somehow. But maybe I will try it again, everyone says its so good. Same goes for TOG.

[@battybean]

magnolia parks definitely not gonna be for everyone! i personally loooved just diving into the drama & complexities of the characters! looooved throne of glass so much. the story starts so simple & then the growth of the overall story & characters is everything🥹

[@shayleigh9892]

I just read acortar at the end of last month and beginning of this month.. and now I'm reading TOG. I'm 100 pages into heir of fire. So far I prefer acortar but with 7 books I know it takes time. I do like it tho. 😊

[@battybean]

So excited for youuu! You have no idea what’s coming🥲🖤

[@entyrechaos9389]

If you liked Freida McFadden you should read the coworker, the inmate, never lie.

[@kourtney2030]

I wonder if I had a similar situation with the Red queen series considering I've never read the last 2 books. I remember really liking the 1st one back when I read it. But I must not have been super into the 2nd one since I never continued. I read it back before I was using goodreads so I don't have anything to look back on to reflect lol

[@battybean]

oooo maybe!

[@eibs10]

I am in throne of glass but…crescent city is amazing. Cannot be beat. Please read I wanna hear your thoughts!
