21:15 you definitely need to read “It ends with us” first! you have the second book of the series x

[@mahnimaalhashmi3999]

You have to read it ends with us first before reading it starts with us…. It starts with us is the second part of the book✨💕

[@Chloe_furlong]

I came here to say the same 😂

[@strawberryunited91]

Omg was literally about to message this 🙈

[@soniailas9934]

Omg i rushed here to tell her!! It would be such a spoiler to start with the 2nd one!

[@aimeesunboxing2514]

Thanks for sharing

[@YouTube]

a zoe vlog is the best start to the week 🌈💕

[@Mallybubu]

STOPP the clip with Ottie having a bath whilst you, your mom and Alfie were smiling is so wholesome I can’t 🥺 such a beautiful family and your mom looks absolutely stunning, this woman never ages! 💕

[@hannahdejager5873]

Hey Zoe! Usually a silent watcher, but i’d love to know more about the business side of things! Like how you and Alfie handle your personal finances, but also investing, owning a business etc.

[@TheErinBall]

Me as well!

[@laurencass6449]

I second this!

[@ceciliasantos9090]

How cute was it when Ottie arrived in the bathroom saying "mommyyy" with the most happy voice??? I almost cried of cuteness 🥺🥺🥺🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼 I'm so happy for this beautiful family ❤

[@heavendivine55]

Ottie being so excited for bath time is definitely a sign of being Zoe’s child. Sooo stinking cute!!

[@HalloBritt]

I became a mother for the first time 6 months ago. Since giving birth I've been very lonely and the postpartum period is hard on me. Zoë's videos are really a big highlight. She really feels like a long distance friend ❤️

[@Michelle-iz5bh]

My children are teens now but when my son was born I found it so hard, so your message really hit me. People concentrate on the joys of motherhood without preparing you for the reality of it. Joining as many mum groups as I could and going out of my comfort zone and pursuing new friends really saved me. Those same mums are still my best friends. Also there is a charity called Homestart which offer a volunteer to come and visit you once a week. That also helped me have a few hours a week to get something done hands free. I’ve since volunteered for them and met some lovely new mums who feel just like you. I does get better and the lighter nights make the days so much better xx

[@321Christina123]

Hope you'll feel better soon!🤍 have a lovely and happy time with your little one!💐💫

[@Pixief13]

My little one is 5 months old and I feel exactly the same ❤

[@frxya.eve0]

That's so sweet

[@Amberosia_mae]

Good one Britt a classic like always!

[@burstofsoul]

Having you posting every Sunday lately is making me feel so good. Sundays are anxiety for me because it means I soon have to go back to work. But watching your videos brings me back to my teenage years when I started watching them and they relaxed me. So thank you. It's like having a lunch with an old childhood friend. It's like coming back home. Love you forever Zoe 💓

[@cheesetoastie11]

zoe just so you know it stars with us is the second book! it ends with us is the first and tells all of the back story of the main character, lily, in order for it starts with us to make sense!

[@wildestdreamer3891]

Love that Alfie said the meeting doesn’t count as seeing you because is so true❤

[@enneibaf_]

It Starts With Us is actually the second book of its the series, the first being It Ends With Us! I'm not sure if it can be read as a stand-alone as I haven't read it myself (yet) so I just thought I would let you know! ❤❤

[@jayv0000]

You can’t. It would be so confusing lol

[@asmasouheyr6401]

Just finished watching Alfie's vlog and here I find Zoe's too, what a beautiful day 😍

[@tanyaturrell3367]

The markers in the day with a baby routine is so relatable. At first I really struggled with the life changes when my baby was born. I felt like I was lost, I had know clue what I was doing, I felt really lonely and had lost my identity. Nothing was how it used to be. Then a few months in we started getting a little routine going and honestly these help me so much! Especially if it’s a hard day. The routine doesn’t always go exactly to plan. But having times in the day where I’m making his breakfast or dinner. And bath time and bed time. It honestly gets me through the day sometimes !!!! Really loving all the content lately. Another part of MY routine when little one is in bed !!!!!

[@itsjustjasmine9093]

‘It ends with us’ is first and it is amazing! I have started the second one and it is just as good xx

[@freddiehawken9620]

I am watching this at 12:45 at night because im so anxious about my school day tomorrow and this is making me feel so much better. Trying to not let my anxiety swirl because of mocks and bullies 😩

[@jesssnellx]

Heyy, I know this is a bit late but I really hope your day has gone ok! I know school is really hard especially when other people are making it harder for you - just remember you do have people who want to listen about your day, and Zoe is a safe space

[@bbybanshee539]

Love you Freddie! Yeah school is the worse, life has gotten so much better since school finished. Stay strong bro ✊ Just try and make the best of it xx

[@sonschi55]

Love to you ❤☀️☺️

[@DorkaKardos]

I would LOVE a little business Q&A and in general just hearing about your experience with running a business, what goes into it, what kind of help you need to do it (e.g. your accountant and business planner), it'd be so interesting!

[@sotiria_lazaridou]

hello Zoe!! I'm so glad to see all the new books you bought, but I would just like to inform you that you need to read It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover before you read It Starts With Us, since the latter is kind of a sequel!💜

[@emilyyelton4816]

Using headspace has really helped improve my sleep and mindfulness. I've always been the kind of person who thought meditation would never be my thing, but headspace is so great for beginners! Plus it's free for teachers in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia!

[@stefaniegalea6810]

Little Otties love for her daddy is adorable…… all those people round the bath “ who can you see?” DADDY !!! Bless her. Xx

[@lauren-sp7ev]

Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow was my favourite book of last year. I can’t tell you how I cried, it was so beautiful

[@emilyashdown395]

I really want to read it but no idea what it's about 😂

[@lauren-sp7ev]

@@emilyashdown395 its about video game design, but honestly you don’t have to know anything about it or even enjoy games to love it. I know nothing about video games. It’s mostly about people and friendship, can’t recommend it enough! Let me know if you end up reading it 😁😁

[@Brunetteraps00]

Honestly, I wouldn’t mind a whole vlog dedicated to Zoe just playing with Ottie lol I live for the playtime with sweet little baby Ottilie

[@RebeccaAnneHathaway]

Props to whoever is working on headspace's team!

[@emily_janesmith]

Zo have you watched Normal People? It’s SO good! I always really enjoyed Fleabag. I feel like you’d really enjoy that too. I don’t watch a lot of TV but those two had me hooked

[@laurenosborn4676]

As a mama I can tell you it’s hard to get back into reading after having babies so I’m happy to see you reading! Btw I miss the Zoella book club!

[@daynatuso2923]

Having a hard time Zoe, I recently lost both parents. Seeing your video really helped me, I appreciate you and how positive and real you are!🥰

[@xkatiechau]

it starts with us is the sequel to it ends with us, which i definitely recommend reading first!! excited to hear your thoughts

[@alexarobertson17]

Show recs: Amazon: Carnival Row, Daisy Jones & the Six Hulu: The Watchful Eye HBOmax: The Last of Us (I almost didn’t watch this because I heard “zombie” and thought 🙄 “ew” but its 99% drama and 1% zombie) Netflix: Red Rose, Matilda the Musical (it’s a film but I feel like you were probably a Matilda/ Dahl girlie when you were younger! Bc of your love of The Witches) AMC+: Interview With The Vampire, Mayfair Witches (the show didn’t hold a candle to the books but if you haven’t read them, you might like it.) 🖤

[@zayba.p]

I saw books and current favs and ran. Appreciate you Zoe! 🫶🏽💜

[@ruby-fz9kg]

it starts with us is the sequel to it ends with us - read that one first zoe!! highly recommend them both though xx

[@caitlinburton975]

Would love a come back of the ‘Zoella book club’ but more reads you’d want to read know and maybe the Zoe Reads book club! Xx

[@meep885]

Silent watcher! But I’m a business student and would love to watch a q&a on all business aspects. Been watched you for 10 years and have loved the journey!

[@amberalston9872]

I know you'll never see this, but I just want to say thank you for being my escape. I've been not feeling the best. Mentally, physically, emotionally, and all of the above. When I feel depressed I watch your videos. I've been watching your videos for the past 8 years and you've helped me a lot! Right now, I don't feel beautiful. I dont feel enough. I'm married for almost 4 years and I'm wanting to have a kid.. really bad.. but I know my husband is not ready to have one. When I see your videos with your beautiful daughter, I gives me hope that I will someday have a child as perfect as Ottie. I'm sorry for this message.. just wanted to say my thoughts to someone

[@Claiirzyy]

hope you're ok amber, please take care of yourself. you're not alone with this i'm exactly the same! sending you lots of love xx

[@missemily_x]

Hope your ok xx I know exactly how comforting these videos can be too but for the same sort of reasons xox

[@jadeparker5464]

I loved this type of vlog! It felt even more cosy and relaxing!!

[@hayleysmith9041]

Zoe, next time you order a Dominoes, order a margherita with garlic spread as an additional topping.. Honestly, it will change your life! X

[@RedSpecial3]

Lessons in Chemistry is absolutely amazing 😍 I loved it so much ❤️

[@laurenbarrett206]

hey zoe, love the vlog as always :))) i would love to hear more about the business side would be really interesting! also if ur comfortable in posting it would love to see a day in the life of you and alfie as parents, like ur routine etc! love you all have an amazing rest of ur day

[@hannahmerchant7268]

Would LOVE a business Q&A!!!

[@notesfromnatalie]

please give us an update on the books when you start reading!! xx

[@brandispry576]

Ottie is so darn adorable!!! I love seeing her. Loved the vlog! ❤

[@tashy7597]

You should defo read The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo! That was my favourite read of last year, defo recommend!

[@IEJ932]

Totally you should do more just one day vlogs! Don’t worry about it being boring or anything because i think most of your viewers would agree that we actually love the mundane vlogs the most - just seeing you cook dinner and tidy the house and what your’e watching on tv that night haha!

[@p0keDAmo0seyXD]

Oh I would most definitely LOVE a business Q&A! You and Alfie are both incredibly inspiring and great at remaining humble but engaged with your businesses and investments. I’d love to know what has been the thing that’s been the biggest return on investment in your career? Not necessarily a return in money, but perhaps lessons or experience - specifically I’d love to know which of your many ventures (beauty line, books, property investments, business startups, etc.)

[@BunnyBlue9212]

Not going to lie. Im always here for the Ottie cameos. She is such a cutie! 🥺

[@elieska]

The headspace sleepcasts are my favourite, the laundrette and the soap shop are my go-to's :)

[@lexibilton]

your vlogs never fail to make me smile, you have been such a light on youtube all these years zoe, thankyou for being so many of our comfort person to watch on this space!!! xxxx

[@emilysarah25]

Team Audiobook!! I can focus better on a book when it’s being read to me while I can multitask and get things done at the same time.

[@laurennsspencer]

My daughter (6 months) and I are both Virgos and we LOVE routine, especially at bedtime 🥰

[@kailynwhipple5094]

I just read “it ends with us “ this week and it was amazing! So powerful, beautiful , personal and real. Pls read this one first if you can because “ it starts with us” is the sequel ! But I know you’ll enjoy both! I loved this video Zoe! Thanks for taking us along on your day. I think it’s so cute how you and your mom are. You are like her mini me and Ottie is your mini you and it’s the cutest thing to see ❤️

[@TheJuicyVlog]

You have to watch Handmaid’s Tale if you haven’t already. We went to that after Happy Valley and are totally addicted 😅

[@serinawhaycock]

Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow, is one of those books that touched me so deeply, but I couldn’t explain why.

[@michelejackson3358]

Was just thinking this morning how perfect a new Zoe vlog would be on this Sunday

[@hannahemery885]

Headspace saved me from pregnancy insomnia!! The soundscapes are incredible 🙌🏻

[@wclaire3304]

An Alfie Deyes blog and a Zoe in 1 day.. makes me happy 😊

[@thatgeekybookworm375]

i am so excited to read Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow myself x

[@christineocMUA]

Yes please to a business video!!! 🙌🏽

[@claireabellhayward2400]

You and Alfie have done so well in life... I'm going to be 30 this year, and suddenly feeling lost, and wish I had a better career, but unfortunately my health has always been in the way. I'm just glad I have my partner of 12 years, and helpful family.

[@madebymillie3894]

I was EXACTLY the same with the Domino's Twisted Dough Balls! Thought I was the only one with the obsession. It seemed to be during COVID, for about 2 years on the website it said something like "we are temporarily running a reduced menu" and they stopped doing things like half and half pizzas as well. When I finally chanced a look at the website and saw the Dough Balls were making a comeback, I started to hyper ventilate and kid you not think I shed a tear when I ordered and took that first bite! 😅 My boyfriend, however, who I forced into trying one there and then did not understand the hype!

[@michelle_mitch_p]

Love when you both upload on the same day ❤reading it starts with us you need to read it ends with us first but if not it’s a must to read both ❤

[@mashamitina4436]

Not a drama series, but "Shrinking" on Apple TV with Jason Segel and Harrison Ford has been SO GOOD. Episodes are still coming out but it's been a very good and funny show which deals with tough topics really well and in a wholesome way.

[@ClaraSais]

Lessons in chemistry is on my ever growing book pile, I’m reading the Lockwood and co series at the mo!

[@danufes]

I've said before that you could upload 3 hour vlogs talking about anything and I would still love to watch it haha Regarding books, I'm on a mission to read all of Colleen's books haha you have to give Verity a chance. SO intense!

[@miarizzo8111]

so fun seeing your book covers! I’m based in the US and most of the ones you shared are slightly different here

[@ronjawahlstrom8338]

Having a baby and now a toddler whom I share room with, kindle night mood is a life saver!

[@BeeAnna44]

please do a business q&a! x really want to be self-employed one day but have no idea how

[@sonja1437]

For the past 6 years or so, I was a kindle person. But two weeks ago I found a physical book that I bought a while back, and now I don’t want to go back!!!

[@marianaceflores]

Team physical copy definitely, there's nothing like the smell of a book, the feel of it. It's something really special. Also, You might like this channel: Jack Edwards, he gives book recommendations and well, talks about books in general.

[@sunset2211]

Would love a business Q&A!

[@completelyme101]

You MUST read verity by Colleen Hoover. Especially if you like thrillers. One of my all time favorite books

[@grrrumpypanda]

I highly recommend listening to audiobooks before bed/on walks. I use Scribd and am reading so much more now! For TV shows, how about the Julia Child programme with Sarah Lancashire. I think you would enjoy it :)

[@manoek38]

Physical books 100%! I just love being able to flip the pages. Also, when I see the book in my living room i'm more temped to read it than when it's digital, i'll just forget about it then.

[@maiax4667]

If your reading it starts with us you need to read it ends with us first ❤

[@sublimelime247]

Honestly got jump scared by Zoe's mom at 25:58 😅

[@4896Danny]

Business Q&A would be amazingggg!

[@BeingDaphne]

I loved hearing you talk books!! I gave Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@joharvey2534]

Your spring-type makeup looks so lovely 💕

[@leahbeth97]

18:24 Last tango in Halifax is another Sally Wainwright written drama HIGHLY recommend ❤

[@Kushinaz]

Zoe u can't bore us with ur videos even if u tried. We love you ❤️

[@naomimccann3239]

Would love to know Otties routine too!

[@juliataylor1735]

Hi Zoe Would love to know which blusher you are wearing in this, such a beautiful rosy glow! ❤

[@raml_meh]

I really recommend Daisy Jones and The Six and The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo or basically anything by Taylor Jenkins Reid. I think you'll really enjoy her writing, all her stories are so well written and just soooo good. Please do check them out🤍 Also that pink lipstick looks lovely on you!

[@Bananasinpyjamasrock]

Another couple of dramas that I’ve really enjoyed are: • Better (BBC) • Anatomy of a Scandal (Netflix)

[@__SalmeeraJoseph__]

Collen's hopeless had be crying my eyes out.. the series is so worth reading

[@JustPeachies]

29:14 Where are your pillows from? They look SO comfyyyy 💖

[@-lizzy-9664]

Me and my mum love your videos, it’s so relaxing and a lovely escape to watch 😊 thank you Zoe ❤

[@RobynnexPaula]

ZOEEEEEEEEE. I missed your favourites videos It brings back so much nostalgia 💫

[@chummymummy]

I highly recommend both Eggshell Skull and Who Gets To Be Smart by Bri Lee. I also just ordered Turtles All The Way Down

[@xcuttsx93]

Zoe what do you use to flip or loosen your fried egg ? I started using a silicon spatula it works much better and doesn't scratch pan ; it also works with pancakes and and stirring scrambled eggs too. 🙂

[@haseena1001]

Hi Zoe 🌸 Lessons in Chemistry is amazing! Definitely one of my all-time favourites 📚📖

[@youngbeauty118]

hi Zoe, yes I'd love a business q&a. I'd love to hear your tip money tips/things you wish you knew sooner. I'm in my mid-twenties now and starting to seriously think about money and savings etc. Also investments, dont have a clue. Also, can see lots of people are talking about It ends with us in the comments, please be warned it is quite graphic and about sexual/domestic trauma, I think it's become a little bit trauma-porny since its popularity on tiktok exploded. Just be mindful before reading or talking about it on your channel. I read it years ago before the hype and thought it was amazing but its very triggering. As always, LOVE your videos!!xxx

[@graciebrodie2395]

Absolutely loved the boo It starts with us... juts make sure you have read the prequal it ends with us before you read It starts with us!! Both books are incredible, probably my fav I've ever read

[@tuliphayward4833]

Entrepreneurial talks are my favorite while you do your make up! :)

[@lottiejudd8334]

18:16 stick with Line of Duty! It’s SO good!

[@lucywilcock1832]

Silent watcher here Zoe 😀but I just had to leave a comment today! I read 'lessons in chemistry' last year and absolutely loved it so hope you do too, I found my scientific brain and love of baking/cooking was the perfect match for this book. Thank you for another comforting, wholesome vlog x

[@carmen-22]

I would love a business Q&A!

[@giodls]

idk if you’ll ever see this but could you do a segment in a video or maybe a dedicated video on how you clean your home and what products you use? much love ❤

[@penelopedambrine7421]

Hi Zoe, thanks for this book recommendation! I was very inspired to read "Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow" but English is not my natural language. Do you think the vocabulary might be too complicated? Especially since it seems to be quite long? (I can't find a French version) ❤ thanks a lot !

[@mindingfocus]

Doing a Q&A on here would be a great idea! Would love to hear your perspective on criticism as well as a woman in biz, and your thoughts on diversity and whether you see any changes over the many years you've been doing this :)

[@gaeul21]

Try the peloton guided outdoor runs, they are great!!!!

[@harrischilcott7492]

Omg Zoe, Happy Valley was filmed in my town ! It’s absolutely fab, although it’s not a bad place at all 😂❤️
