MY FIRST FANTASY BOOK OF THE YEAR | Weekly Reading Vlog

[@historiangabriellemcmaster]

For bookmas, could you do “if you liked this Christmas movie, you’ll like this book” recommendations?

[@kusumtyagi5639]

Fantasy is my favourite genre because it transports you to a whole new world and you get to live a different life👍👍😉😉❤️❤️😘😘

[@averyshadoweagle8980]

Same:D I can forget about everyday problems ^^

[@rachelgudiel2182]

Omg I AGREE so much

[@bubunbubun7602]

Secrets of Sanatan Dharma although non fiction but a Amazing book for you sister

[@kusumtyagi5639]

@@bubunbubun7602 thanks I have read that book and it's really nice

[@elpidakitsou5633]

I have thé same opinion

[@juliamatuszek7252]

For bookmas, maybe you could do a video that’s a book gift guide! Like a book recommendation for a movie lover or a musician, etc!

[@HaileyinBookland]

I have one planned where I ask you guys what recommendations you need for gifts! 😄

[@ridaquraishi4684]

Idea for bookmas: You could talk about books that are inspired by a particular Christmas decoration, example, book you're reminded of when you think of candy cane, and so on.

[@bubunbubun7602]

Hi friends (Habits wisdom and mindset of highly successful people 2020) this book is Amazing it's available on Amazon and Kindle *

[@laniehenry]

I like that Idea😊

[@madisongracedeluise]

I LOVED the Barbie version of “The 12 Dancing Princesses” 😂

[@ava_lavender]

You could do a recommendation video based on the twelve days of christmas song. Like have one book about one theme, and then two books with another common theme, and then three, and so on. It might be hard to find twelve books, so you might want to stop at like six or something. Idk if this made any sense.

[@BethMaryHal]

That would make a great challenge video honestly

[@georgiefarr1094]

I love the cover for House of Salt and Sorrows 💙💙💙

[@susannaroel4938]

Yess!!

[@HaileyinBookland]

It also has a very nice feel to it, it's like that soft velvety material 😍

[@georgiefarr1094]

@@HaileyinBookland I must get it 💙💙💙

[@angelicateoxon2791]

Hailey in Bookland I was wondering why it felt so different from other books, that makes so much sense now!

[@Eva-xk3vo]

Oh my gosh House of Salt and Sorrows is sooo good. It’s very haunting book, and the world is so magical!

[@between_the_pages]

"House of Salt and Sorrows" is SO GOOD! I loved it so much and I wish there was a sequel.

[@Electroclan17]

Yes Barbie and the 12 Dancing Princesses! I love that movie.

[@melissae5555]

Please film you going through your old books in your parents garage. Lol I don't know why I love watching people go through books 😂 it's like a time capsule!

[@matildetome]

Yes please!!

[@julievandemoere1194]

I saw this challenge once (not on youtube but I don't remember where) where they did like a secret santa for book characters! So you let someone pick some characters for you and then you have to find the perfect book for those characters and like explain your thought process for picking that book. It's a simple challenge but it might be fun to do!

[@HaileyinBookland]

Ohhhh interesting I'll have to look into that, thank you!

[@bubunbubun7602]

Hi friends (Habits wisdom and mindset of highly successful people 2020) this book is Amazing it's available on Amazon and Kindle *

[@niewymagane]

I would love vlogs during bookmas, or a cozy read with me video, for example with a christmas/winter themed book! 😊

[@erinmcgarry5015]

*Bookmas idea* Combine your love of cooking/baking and reading and attempt to make some christmas goodies mentioned in your favourite books! For example, the chai sugar cookies with eggnog icing that Lara Jean makes in P.S. I Still Love You ☺️

[@elizabethgranger21]

For Bookmas: Could you recommend books based on Christmassy baked goods? I'm so excited for Bookmas btw x

[@HaileyinBookland]

It's on my list! 💜

[@AdriScarrlett]

A book for each reindeer would be a cute video!! Book as gifts what book for a different type of reader!

[@avaeder264]

You could do an "unboxing" and a keep or unhaul video going through the books at your parents!

[@kaylagracereads]

I know you cook quite a bit, but maybe you could do some holiday baking? I saw an idea I loved on another channel. Making book covers out of cookies! Maybe try holiday themed books??

[@kbbibliomania]

For bookmas, you could do a Christmas themed scavenger hunt whether it’s on your bookshelves or in your house.

[@KrystalJanson]

A perfect bookmas idea could be baking Christmas treats while talking about some all time fave Christmas books & movies 🎄 🎅🏻 💓

[@AbiofPellinor]

Yesss!!! Back to fantasy! Of course I hope you read the books you want, but I always love delving into a new world in fantasy - this year more than ever!

[@liligunn562]

Perhaps an idea for bookmas that you could do is having a whole bunch of scenarios (eg. who would you want as your best friend, who would you fight with) and you have to pick characters from different books to match the scenario.

[@odditea77]

This book was fantastic. When I finished it I wished so much that there were more books in this setting.

[@wifiraslibrary8096]

You inspire me to want to read. So passionate about stories. Thank you for recommending reads and getting us hyped. 🥰

[@linalilo735]

literary one of the best booktubers ever💙

[@caseyouellette4045]

Look at you go girl, a sequel AND a fantasy?!!! Your fall decor is the cutest!

[@TheLiteraryApothecary]

25 days of Bookmas! That would be fantastic! Something like an advant calendar would be fun - a book-ish item every day. :)

[@savannahb9136]

Barbie and the 12 dancing princesses was my favorite!!

[@kackahroch]

I love bookmas, but I mostly love your winter reading vlogs so I hope you do those this year❤️

[@elise2798]

*Video idea* make Festive treats either inspired by Christmas books or mentioned in Christmas books. By Christmas books I mean books set during the winter/ holidays.

[@snehaj2271]

Revisiting your tbr. Then sharing your views on the book you have read and why you haven't read the other and do you want to read the others now

[@folklaur]

I’d love a video showing how you decorate your house for the holiday season! Has nothing to do with books, I just love love LOVE Christmas decorations

[@martynabrzostek9300]

I really like those fall decorations! They are so adorable, I love the autumn aesthetic that now is starting to show up everywhere 🧡🍁! Also, I'm so excited for bookmas, it's gonna be amazing 😁🎄

[@chrysthascozycorner]

For bookmas challenge, read a book with christmas colours. Your favorite books that is about christmas. Not have a christmas in it but the majority of the book is about christmas. Example a christmast Carol. Harry Potter book dosent count even though they have christmas in it.

[@charlietheis4048]

I love the snow globe!

[@leamorin2472]

OK IDEA: DO COOKING VIDEOS ABOUT CHRISTMASSY FOODS FROM BOOKS LIKE BUTTERBEER

[@sheltercoordinator8387]

Awwww.....your kitty is so sweet!

[@abigailmcdowell813]

I just recently got back into fantasy and i’ve so loved it lately! I love being on this journey and watching as you go on this one too! ❤️

[@paigecathey9923]

You could do a video where you make meals/ baked goods inspired by books, I feel like you love to cook and bake!

[@mia839]

Planing for Christms in September, a mood. (Looking forward to Bookmas, tho)

[@courtneyslagle7457]

I’d love to see a gift recommendations video for readers (that doesn’t include books). I know people tend to do red bubble videos but I would like other store options as well if that makes sense! ☺️

[@liesadventure]

It's not books, but favourite Christmas movies for a bookmas video. Especially lifetime/hallmark movies 😆 Or books that would make good Christmas films

[@susannaroel4938]

Clicked as fast as I possibly could! Don't know if I'm late for replies but still, I love yours and Hannah's videos. They give me happiness. Who else is happy just by watching book tube?

[@valerierogers4960]

Cemetery Boys!!! Yay!

[@autumnhess6729]

just a simple video idea for bookmas is maybe showing us your favorite book covers? I'd personally love to hear which are some of your favorites and why

[@megpartington8359]

HEY HAILEY!!! i loved this vlog! it is always tradition to clean my room whenever a new video of yours comes out (yes i have to clean my room so often haha) i have an idea for bookmas, what if you were to decorate ginger breads as bookish things?!

[@eendju]

Bookmas idea: since this is a time of year where people give each other presents, you could show us all the books you were gifted in 2020

[@sharlizedsouza3307]

I absolutely adore your vlogs...legit the best part of my week

[@o0BlackSand0o]

The only bookmas challenges i can think of are pretty simple: A book whose cover is red and green A book whose main character's name is Nick A book set in the snow/ or a Southern hemisphere book about a summer Xmas A story about ghost visitations or a retelling of a Christmas tale. Theyre just some ideas

[@tabsiblack1228]

Okay i came up with a challenge It is kind of like "do i have that Book?" But christmas edition 1. Pick a book with a reindeer in it 2. Pick a book with a present/gift on the cover 3. Pick a book that takes place at nickolaus 4. Pick a book with a bell on the cover 5. Pick a book that takes place where you wish you could be on christmas season 6. Pick a book with a christmas bauble on the cover 7. Pick a book that gives you the most christmasy feeling 8. Pick a book with 24 chapters 9. Pick a book that is about trees 10. Pick a book that is about Cookies 11. Pick a book that have Angles in it 12. Pick a book that have shepherd in it 13. Pick a book with candles on the cover 14. Pick a book with a mistletoe 15. Pick a book that you would like to read on christmas this year PS: i am not fluent in english and my phone allways wants to autocorrect english words i write in my motherlanguage. So i am sorry for any mistakes.

[@caitlinmcneil373]

For bookmas you could do a cooking or baking recipe from a book 🥰

[@KeeleyJo]

I can’t believe it’s already year 6 of bookmas, I remember when you started it!

[@StephLoves]

Love your vlogs Hailey. So excited for your bookmas videos too. I've decided to do 12 days of vlogmas this year where I'll be daily vlogging and I'm so excited. Just hoping I'll have enough content 🤞🏼😂

[@moonweaver6411]

This is my first time being early for your videos. Your recommendations are quite helpful. I love fantasy, especially the spooky kind.

[@galiciaangelov.1249]

Can I know some tips on how you clean your book?

[@becklebooks]

I also struggle to listen to audiobooks while I work out. I prefer music to pump me up! I do listen to audiobooks if I go for a stroll, but... not exercise where I have to concentrate on my struggle. :P

[@CloverRose]

For Bookmas you could make Christmasy bookmarks/decorations or draw/paint alternative covers for the book you're reading. Maybe you could make up your own xmas reading challenges

[@TinaMarieVlogs]

who else needs to read that book now?! from a fellow youtuber !

[@freyalovesbooks3824]

Omg yes there is a 12 dancing princesses Barbie movie! It was,is and will always be my favourite Barbie movie!!

[@misscheer4eva]

My favorite retelling of 12 dancing princesses was “princess of the midnight ball” by Jessica day George. Reading house of salt and sorrows and that is also good.

[@estefanifarfan5839]

Some bookmas ideas: Make bookish ornaments Or bake some goodies and make them bookish. I remember Zoe made gingerbread cookies and made them into different characters! Create a Christmas book tag A 24hr bookmas reading vlog?

[@doiknownoidont4929]

You could do challenges with some other holidays (like reading a book around Hannukah, Kwanzaa,...)!!! Or threading a small book (Christmas for kids) in French!! I'd love to see that! Love your videos!

[@BriaLuis]

I have my Fall book line-up all set and ready, but I have a feeling that midway through my Fall list I will start to want to change it up and read something light and fluffy. So I did myself a favor and threw in a few non-spooky reads and I am super happy with my Fall TBR list now. Love all of your vids and especially your vlogs!

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

I love house of salt and sorrow so much!!

[@charlottecalvert9635]

For bookmas you could try and recreate book covers. Idk if that’s kinda hard but it sounded cool in my head.

[@sabrinaderricksonbookjourn4009]

Yeah, that barbie movie is called "Barbie and the 12 dancing princesses" and i loved tiny pretty things! It really kinda shocked me at the end. i will probably still read the 2nd one.

[@average-rice1068]

omg yesss bookmas will be amazing 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@olivia9x]

i can’t wait for your bookmas videos!!!

[@1323izzy]

Have Charlie (dressed as an Elf!) unwrap your tbr/book haul!

[@vanessapedroza2446]

Maybe you could do something like “if this book was a (insert a holiday dish) what would it be” and then make it? I don’t know maybe that’s dumb.

[@saiveekshitavinnakota6528]

Wowww the title pulled me in immediately so proud Hailey 😂😀👍

[@zahraaal-hilo7013]

I found your channel from bookmas 2 years ago! So excited for this year’s bookmas. 💚

[@elisabethmeixner8326]

HOSAS is my favorite standalone

[@RubyRaeReads]

Seriously need to pick up House of Salt and Sorrows, sounds exactly up my alley

[@cookietime6115]

Why does your cat always have a ‘are you serious’ look? Lmaooo

[@meyahpitts4580]

You should totally make bookish ornaments

[@happyboss8272]

Yes their was a barbie movie too it and I LOVEEEE IT ♥️ although I am a big teenager lol😂

[@TheLiteraryApothecary]

Weiner dogs are my favorite! Also thinking about taking out fall clothes. You and I are so on same place.

[@spooky_val6674]

I love the house of sea and salt cover their too beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@teanlit2949]

this book wasn't even on my radar, thanks so much for sharing it...not that i need another fantasy ready on my tbr, I'm sure I'll love it!

[@misssunrise3717]

I like watching your reafing vlogs. They literally give me motivation to read🤗

[@jamiemasters2464]

What if you did an elf on the shelf kind of weekly thing?? Maybe your boyfriend would be able to help, and one night a week of bookmas he hides a Christmas childrens book for you to find and read that day! ☺️ I think that would be really fun to watch

[@maria.is.reading]

I'm so exited for this video. I really enjoy watching your vlogs!

[@kaylamadden1393]

decorating gingerbread men like book character and then see if we can guess who is who!

[@17caria]

I think you had a book tag with this kind of thing, but you could do a ""Match a book to this Christmas song" video. You could also vlog while baking Christmas cookies or something,

[@elianahogan8252]

I started Straight on till morning by Liz Brazwell, and I love it. Peter Pan and Neverland is something that lives with me cause I have a strong imagination. Do recommend if you haven't read it yet

[@gheribnachoua7588]

Keep up the good work..love you and your vlogs

[@sarahc5433]

As per usual, amazing vlog! Love you so much Hailey :)

[@tiffanyjanemendez33]

First time to be so early to watch your video. I've been your follower for a long time Hailey and I love listening you on recommending books.

[@marianadias6769]

You could do a video like "a book I'd give as a Christmas gift to my mother / father / sisters / boyfriend / best friend, etc, I think it would be a really cool video (obviously it's in a hypothetical way, you don't have to actually give those books to those people haha)

[@faith3139]

Hello from the UK. I've decided to start one of my Disney's Twisted Tales books today. "Reflection" by Elizabeth Lim, which is the Mulan retelling. I had wanted to continue and finish the Percy Jackson series, but I wasn't in the mood. So I went with a retelling. 🙂 I like the sound of "House of Salt and Sorrows" but I haven't been able to actually locate a copy in my bookstores or library so... And yes, there was a Barbie Movie version of the 12 Dancing Princesses story. Unfortunately, "Cemetery Boys" isn't out yet in the UK, (I believe) and I also can't find "When we were Magic" either. I think I did find a copy of "Cinderella is Dead" but I didn't pick it up. :(

[@laianhajomar6072]

Ahhhhhh the mulan twisted tale is so good!! Its definetly my favorite twisted tale with "so this is love" which Is the cinderella retelling

[@anushkasharma7088]

Would you recommend the wolf by wolf series?

[@jacinthebeard4734]

Pick books that remind you of Christmas Carol's

[@ambilyravindran]

😍😍😍love your vlogs

[@tabsiblack1228]

YES... their is a 12 dancing princess barbie movie 😁😉

[@dvrk_academic]

I'm so keen to read house of salt of sorrows. It seems so interesting!

[@juliaisagoodwitch]

I have a bookmiss (not sure if that’s how you spell it 😂) video idea. Maybe you could recommend books based off of certain Christmas ornaments that remind of those books. Not sure if the idea is actually plausible but it might be a fun thing to try 😂

[@charlottejruthauthor]

so excited to read spooky books soon! I just bought the devouring gray, which I've heard is similar to stranger things, so it sounds perfect for halloween. I plan to read house of salt and sorrows as well!

[@robinsprung207]

Great content!
