One thing that made me happy this week was when an older gentleman in the grocery store saw that I only had a few items and he offered to let me go in front of him in line. I said “That’s okay, I don’t mind waiting. Thank you!” But I could tell it was important to him. He said someone had done it for him and he wanted to pass it on so I agreed and thanked him again and he was so delighted which in turn made he delighted. A small interaction that left a big impression on my heart. Love you and your videos, Lexi! 💜

[@goldeemabulay9052]

One thing that made me happy this week is we rescued two puppies. I've been teaching them 'Sit'. 😆🌞

[@munajedski]

Thank you for rescuing!!

[@yullovelevolluy]

Hope they find great home ❤ you're an angel!

[@kristinaticorat-frazier7975]

One thing that made my week was my husband taking me book shopping in the rain. I live in CA and we have gotten a decent amount of rain this year, but it always feels special because it’s rare. ☀️

[@alorainautumn]

One thing that made me happy this week was going to The Japanese Gardens in Oregon! 🌸 ☀️ Gorgeous, gorgeous 🌸 Another thing was staying by the ocean! 🌊

[@LibrariesandLattes]

One thing that made me happy this week was taking my 11 month old daughter to visit her grandparents in Florida and lots of other family members getting to meet her for the first time ❤️❤️❤️

[@nmartin5096]

🌷🌞🌷The sunshine is shining through you since you moved back home. 🌷📚

[@chelseyjohnson501]

This week I watched my two sons play in the sprinkler for the first time this year. We always have the best time doing thay ☀️

[@ArtemisC.DAragon]

Thank you for another great video, Lexy!!! Lots of tempting titles!!! Your book shelves are looking very nice. I could live in that room 'till it's all read! 😉🙃☺️💞

[@mrsdevh]

☀️ One thing that made me happy this week was getting baby chicks! They are so fluffy and cute and I can’t wait to see them grow up and give us nice fresh eggs!

[@udishaverma7862]

The thing that made me happy this week was that I got gifted three books by my relativess!!! ❤

[@susanveligor364]

☀️ enjoyed your fun video and loved your book shopping, shelf reorganization.

[@MsELaHood]

Lex, the little montage in the car about how you needed to change it up… you look SO STUNNING in that clip. Your glowy skin/light makeup look suits you sooo well !! ❤

[@alib6615]

I am definitely going to pick up "Fruit of the Dead". That sounds right up my alley. 🌞

[@joannievh2071]

I miss you posting more on KZbin!!! I love seeing you work in your shelves... Perhaps another tour?! What made me happy this past week was a professional event I went to and got to meet a lot of people I work (virtually) with for real! ❤❤❤ ☀️🌞☀️

[@brandytaylor1986.]

Yeah this spring has been beautiful I wish it would stay like this through summer

[@deannapro]

☀️☀️ one thing that made me happy this week was watching the solar eclipse with my neighbors and family 🌖

[@giftofbooks164]

One thing that made me happy this week was getting to see all my theatre friends for our theatre club one last time all together before most of us would leave. Sadly, the club has become toxic to the point so many people have been bullied but i am grateful they all came together one last time for our showcase. ☀️☀️☀️🌻

[@udishaverma7862]

Here is the sunshine ☀️

[@lewisgennery8897]

Just what I needed after a long week. My heart feels instantly lifted.

[@ryantodd7476]

🌞 Thanks for the video Lexi! I really need to read The Art Thief, sounds right up my alley ☀️

[@LordOfTheRingsFan21]

I can't believe you own a copy of The Book of Lost Things!!! That's amazing! Never seen another person with it ❤

[@karenyates6797]

I love seeing you in different outfits and twlling us hiw your week is going and what you are doing and reading! It IS really rewarding getting all those books in their respective places and seeing the final (but not ever really) look! So fulfilling!!!! Glad you are feeling more settled back at "home" and being with your family! Much happiness and joy to you!!!

[@udishaverma7862]

Yayyy a new video!! One of the things im living for by now.

[@Anna-dp8ee]

I got a new cabinet and filling it with all my whimsical HP stuff made me very happy 🥰 thank you for this joyful video ❤️

[@goldeemabulay9052]

Oh yayyy!! A longer vlog. I'm also in the middle of organizing my books and planning to donate some to make room for more books! 😁

[@sarahbriggs3986]

☀️☀️☀️☀️ I always feel so great watching your vlogs!! And being able to see my friends after a long, frustrating week was what made me the happiest! 🎉❤

[@gabbyreads]

I can’t wait to read My Husband!! 👀

[@katewillread1509]

I think you’re going to love Motherthing. It made me lol

[@madilynanderson2497]

One thing that made me happy this week was being able to have my mom over and chatting with her for hours before me and my husband took her out to eat for her birthday. She loved the flowers and the squishmallows I got her for her and her little chihuahua who loves the keychain squishmallows for her chew toys (they're the perfect size for her tiny mouth after you remove the keychain attached). It was a lovely day and left me feeling so refreshed. I've missed my mom. ❤️

[@CandiBookishHobbit]

One thing that made me happy this weekend was the beautiful weather. The sun was out and it was about 80 . I opened up the windows in the house and did spring cleaning while listening to The 7 husbands of Evelyn Hugo. 😊🌞

[@romalibra_books]

Motherthing is SO GOOD. It’s the book I recommend for people who liked My Husband so you’re going to love it 🎉

[@Auplaisirdevouslire]

Hi Lexie! I have read My husband in French last year and I absolutely loved that book too! I wasn’t expecting the ending, I thought it was very smart!! One thing that made me happy this week was actually to watch your vlog 🥰 As a French native speaker I mostly follow French speaking content creators, but I have been watching your videos for years now and I wouldn’t miss one for the world!! Thank you for what you do, take care 😘

[@surpriseitsus9622]

The first time I didn't add to my TBR. 😊

[@cupofjae]

Lexi, you are RADIANT. I'm so glad you made it back home. It seems to have been the right move. We love seeing you so happy :)

[@_ashleylh]

I have to contribute two happy things from my week so far. 1. The snow finally melted completely where I live in Canada! Yay! 2. On Sunday, my six year old son performed the song "Baba Yetu" with his choir at a concert. It was so adorable and beautiful! The song is the Lord's Prayer in Swahili and it was written for the video game Civilization IV! So random but I recommend looking it up! PS: I haven't read a short story collection in YEARS but I just picked up The Dangers of Smoking in Bed at my library and I cannot wait to read it!

[@BasyNightshade]

a thing that made me happy this week is i went back to painting and made these little watercolor cute stickers that i used on my tablet cover. so now everytime i read, i remember how i love making art too

[@laurenschenck5355]

Honestly, reading everyone's comments is making me happy 😊 it's so wholesome and full of joy ❤

[@alexandraroselyn]

ME TOO!! I’ve read every single one and THEYRE ALL SO BEAUTIFUL 😭😭😭

[@booksbeanies5425]

☀️ your vlogs make my entire week! One thing specifically that made me happy this week was the weather getting warmer! We hit 80s this week!🎉

[@thecozyfambam]

🌞 Lovely video as always!

[@Ms.SpookyNerd]

Made me happy this week!! This video ❤ Ordering my Nespresso coffees!! And finishing a good book I was reading 📚 ❤ and now I have a week off of work! So excited ❤🎉 sorry i didnt pick just one thing lol

[@rubeuspotter719]

I love reorganizing my books. I don’t have shelves as I don’t have space for them yet, but I do have a box dedicated for my small set of books. Also I finally got my hands on Bookshops and Bonedust and what luck I found it in a library sale brand new for 25 cents. So darn happy about it

[@ReadingNymph]

☀️☀️ this was so fun, definitely adding My Husband and Fruit of the Dead to my tbr. It's a shame about Mrs S, I was thinking to read that one this summer

[@Lucie939]

Love ur organization vlogs! Still rewatch ur old ones!!!

[@SorgieWrites]

🌞Happy for you! You look so thrilled to be back home!

[@josparx5372]

This made me want to reorganize my shelves even though they're totally fine lol ☀️☀️☀️❤❤❤

[@monoel2301]

My cat made me happy this week!! 😻

[@bethanygreenwood8259]

☀️☀️ hope you are getting those Spring vibes! I got to spend some time on Saturday in the sun with my dog outside in our local park 😊

[@lisabrooks178]

yay i've missed your reading vlogs!! i hope you can do more esp during the summer season! you always give such great reading/booktube content for the summer

[@marielbellan]

Love this! Really want to read The Husband now 😅

[@Lillyjoy]

I was just in the same boat as you, I forced myself to read two books I wasn’t enjoying and that put me into a slump for like a week. I ended up dancing one of them and then the next book I read after those was super good 😊 Love your videos as always ❤ One thing that made me happy this week was my friend saying she would crochet me a book sleeve! ☀️

[@taylorreneeyt]

🌞 One thing that made me happy this week was getting to enjoy a three day weekend and watching the eras tour movie with my boyfriend’s daughter! This was such a lovely vlog- you killed it!! 💞

[@annickbianchet3369]

One thing that made me happy this week was my horse Fedora, as she calms me down, is silly and knows when I need a smile🐴🐎🌞🌞🌞

[@brandim1230]

☀️ spending time with my 2 younger nieces made me happy 🌞 spending time outside made me happy

[@mlleChesca]

Ahhhhhhh the hairstyyyyle 💕✨

[@themidnightreader]

One thing that made me happy this week is my little one year old started to walk while pushing her little toy cart. She’ll be walking by herself and running in no time.

[@VeraFran]

I'm 3/4 into My Husband and really loving it. ☀️☀️☀️

[@corissab1961]

One thing that made me happy last week (it's too early this week to have much) was attending an event at our local Children's Zoo and getting to wander and take photos (one of my favorite hobbies). It was a beautiful night and the even was super fun. 🌞🌄

[@lauraa1345]

What a cozy bookish video, Lexi! I really enjoyed it a lot☀️☀️

[@alwaysgettingthere]

girl I think you'd love Lore Olympus for a fun and fresh take on the mythology of Hades and Persephone (as well as a whole cast of other greek deities)

[@InfinitexLibrary]

Don't mind me watching REALLY old vlogs - this was super cute though! 🌞

[@esliet]

Pretty Lexi love all these books 📕 I actually bought couple of these too ! This week sitting in a coffee shop with my hubby made me happy ☀️☀️

[@dettymakesart]

This week was the first for me as a married woman🥰 we didn't go on a honeymoon right away but we had a really nice weekend, went on romantic walks, had a really great and special time together at home 😊

[@lifewithhollyt]

I'm so happy! My Sunday evening is set. First, a video from you, Lexi, and afterwards I got a new video to watch by booktuber Jodie! Here we goooooo! xoxo

[@theSoharMRS]

This is so me. I’m only buying 1 book. Maybe 2 books. Then leave bookstore with *bag* of books. ❤

[@andreapulsifer5326]

Same haha

[@georgiefarr1094]

I love reorganising bookshelves ❤❤❤

[@amorinauman5017]

I finished reading The Storyteller by Dave Grohl. The audiobook was so awesome! Highly recommend! Also, one thing that made me happy this week was the gorgeous weather we had here! 🌞

[@vintagelace7076]

I just changed up my genre and bought my first fantasy ever..i chose Fourth Wing and I simply adored it!! Now im.reading Iron Flame..i never was into fantasy before but Fourth Wing for me was that good.

[@tristanjvargas]

To save money maybe we can see library book hauls if you have one conveniently near. I started following you at the start of Covid and you helped me find some of my most favorite reads! I especially love your cozy recs! The Graveyard Book, I adored! Thank you for being on this platform and giving us content ❤

[@dominiqueendeavors]

my cats made me happy this week! 🌞

[@danira3943]

You ARE sunshine ☀️ ❤

[@yazgarcia8201]

One thing that made me happy this week was that I could buy three books, they are getting very expensive where I live so usually I can't afford them so having bought three of them is amazing 😊☀️🌞

[@moonflowerfaeriee]

🌞. I always love watching you, and really enjoyed hearing about your new books 💗. I just finished reading Inheritance by Nora Roberts, and it was sooo good 💗. I can’t wait for the next in the series to come out. What is making me happy today is the feeling of spring in the air, and the first green grass. See you soon sweetie 😊

[@talliaconner-flores5763]

Glad to hear that Fruit of the Dead was interesting. I've been on SUCH an "unhappy ending" kick lately, with all of the horror and thriller books I've been reading these past months (Just finished Bloom by Delilah S. Dawson, and currently reading Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman) and I'm CRAVING unease. This one has been on my radar for a few weeks now, so I'm going to have to pick it up soon. You reading slump moment was very good advice, actually, and I totally agree. I'd recently burned myself out on fantasy and fluff, so going the complete opposite was just the shot in the arm that I needed.

[@stevencarsley2446]

🌞 on another Book video

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

Okay but YOUR HAIR LOOKS SO CUTE CURLY

[@munajedski]

Can't wait to watch! BTW, I have the Berry Pickers on hold at my library. I'll keep you posted. I feel like you might love it too!

[@wonderlandjournal]

🌞 Seeing Madonna in concert! 🎵 ❤

[@tatianavelasco1335]

Happy Sunday Alex! Plus the Bliss Montage is super amazing to read

[@ttowne0523]

☀️So happy it’s finally Friday!!!

[@chelseyjohnson501]

I read my husband cause you mentioned it in your last vlog and I did really enjoy it and I've been in like a three month slump. So glad I picked that one up

[@lindsayarmstrong7130]

I’ve been reading middle grade and YA because I find a lot of adult books to be very boring and not something I’m generally interested in reading these days. The books I do love I have on my kobo and reread all the time.

[@tiffanyrich6652]

☀️I w t to see Dune pt2 in the theater and it was fantastic. I’m still in a reading slump ☹️. I’m picking up some books from B & N tomorrow. Hopefully, one of them will keep my interest.

[@nathaliacardoni]

☀️One thing that made me happy this week was going out with some friends from work. It was the first time we got to reunite so many people and it was awesome! Everyone was happy e having fun 🌻

[@KirstyProcter-jg6fp]

Love your vlogs! ☀️☀️☀️

[@kellyreadingbooks]

[@Nia_meow_]

Please post continuously 😢

[@richa_xo446]

One thing that made me happy this week was my trip to Dima hasao, Assam and we have a natural golf field there! It was so amazing to how God crafted this world so beautifully and we often fail to see it, ❤ thank you Lord Jesus ❤😊

[@Wonderdoe211]

☀ One thing that made me happy this week was getting some new and overdue furniture!
