Requesting a ‘can I finish my yearly TBR video’ (Skyward will be there then😢)

[@emmaskapetis7603]

I've been wanting for her to read Skyward for almost a year (I had just read it before she put it on her tbr).

[@puppies983]

@ I know! She absolutely loved another YA sci-fi series and this one is amazing because it’s by Brando Sando, I can see it now with the ‘This has been sitting on my TBR for over a year and it’s a 5 star read I can’t believe it’. I have been commenting on every video that she needs to read it for a while now😂

[@emmaskapetis7603]

@puppies983 Yes I think she will love it as well.

[@Zoegrxce]

Home from church, in my comfies and a Rachel video? What a good day

[@Gigi44_Bookworm]

I have seizures it is so exciting to see readers without seizures enjoying stories about individuals like myself who experiences them ❤❤❤

[@srivaishnavikalidindi3908]

Rachel's reading vlogs are the coziest😍😍😍😍😍

[@claudia_lovesjesus]

38:48 The biblical figurines on her bookshelf 😭😭😭💖💖💖

[@kirstenburns9777]

Rereads are the best! I read one of my faves this month The Rosie Project, and loved it all over again.

[@sophiiialbee5615]

this is my favorite type of video to watch!!❤️

[@readingwkatelyn]

a new rachel reading vlog!!! the best sunday!! so many new videos today

[@marydavis2312]

if you wrote an essay on happy place, I would read it. I LOVED the way you were explaining this book and the melancholic energy that it gives you. When I read it for the first time, I felt that energy so strongly and I didn't even realize it was coming from the book , until I did and god it was so magical.

[@kaitlynnicolereads]

I’ve never heard of spark of the everflame but I’m definitely interested now. I try to finish a series before I start another one but I think we are too far gone for that anymore 😂

[@sunshine_6432]

Spark of the everflame was my favourite book of last year. And the next two books are even better! Sooooo glad you're reading this series.

[@antoninaszczepkowska2034]

Rachel, you word your thoughts so beautifully🥹 listening to you is always a pleasure💕

[@Martha-go7zk]

Literally could watch your videos all day!! ❤❤

[@isobella3551]

i am currently 30% in to glow of the everflame and there is more information in this book so far than the whole of the first book !!! its sooo good so far!!

[@bellareads]

the best way to start my week 🫶🏻💜🥹

[@bonniemae1397]

I love your review of happy place!!! It’s so beautiful to see your outpouring of love for it!!

[@booktube8156]

So good Rachel! Your fav books are down with me.

[@chanelalexandra]

oh gosh the princess diaries books 🥹💕 they're so SO good!! lil tween me was obsessed! 👑

[@Mariettereadson]

The Christmas vibes are immaculate

[@danica5235]

ur nail polish color is sooooo cute!

[@chrissyodonnell1507]

I listened to the audio of the match ! I loved it , thought it was so cute!

[@heatherjohnson5531]

I was the same when I finished Spark of the Everflame. I quickly downloaded Books 2 and 3. Such a great series! 💜

[@fallonturner7441]

I’m glad you loved Spark. IMO the books get better and better, I can’t wait for the final book to come out. Just preordered special editions of the first two books from Lithaven 😍

[@RubyTrev]

Happy Place is my favorite book ever. I agree with everything you said about it!

[@Vivsbooks]

I love how passionate you are about Happy Place 😂

[@kimberlyschroeder7409]

Ummmm okay the Princess Diaries books are amazing. The Grandma Queen is so savage. Not nearly as sweet as Julie Andrews. And the dad is still alive. Not a spoiler at all, it’s like in the first chapter of the book. Highly recommend - laugh out loud comedy.

[@JerricaJohnson-sr7yc]

Had a horrible/ long day at work! The only thing getting me through was I knew today was Rach day! Lots of love from Mississippi 🥰

[@AnnBrinlee]

Book 2 - Glow is my favorite book of the year!!

[@daphne.readsnl]

I can't believe I still haven't read Happy Place 😂😱 Hopefully I get to it soon 🤞🏻🩷 And yesss I would love to see more videos like this!

[@daniellejoy116]

I’ve recently fell in love with reading over the last 3 years. I started just reading romance but I’ve started to try and read other genres. I read a book with magical realism and loved it. I want to dip my toes into fantasy but I don’t know how well I’ll do in understanding/learning a new world. Any suggestions for a beginner fantasy book and maybe one that isn’t a series ? The genre seems overwhelming to me 😅

[@jasmines.reading.corner]

I recommend the Divine Rivals duology to dip your toe into fantasy. It’s beautiful writing, has romance, and I found the world building easy to follow since it’s set in a war setting.

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Great video and happy December Rachel!😸🎄

[@readingwithjessica]

I recently reread Happy Place too and had the same thoughts 🥹🫶🏼

[@kaitlynbillings]

Now I’m really interested in reading the match cuz I’ve got epilepsy too. I’d love to read about someone with it 😊💕

[@wonderheythere]

Im so intrigued to read spark

[@aisforalien22]

Hi Rachel! Are you planning on doing an updated 2025 Reading Journal set up? ✨✨

[@natalie.thigpen]

making me want to do a reread of acotar 🤭

[@dz5387]

I have couple of questions if you don't mind regarding your kindle experience so far. I am looking at investing in one but after doing some research I found out that local Brisbane City Council library books can not be downloaded to Kindle. So pretty much no library books can be downloaded onto kindle in Australia. Is that also your experience, or did you find a way to read library books on kindle? Other ereader that has been suggested to me that has Libby app integrated is Kobo. Do you have any experience with Kobo at all? Thank you.

[@Showtunediva]

Enchanted To Meet You was so delightful overall but I agree about the cringey humor Rachel.

[@mayagorev1967]

I love your Aelin shirt!!!!!! Where is it from?

[@taylorchard9499]

Try The Scarlett Veil. Its a fantasy

[@bookwormss]

hi bestiee rach. could you please try and link (if you can find it) the baby blue and white striped tank you were wearing in your intro. it looks super cuteee. thankyouuu. love you lotss. 🫶🏽🫶🏽

[@jenn23140]

I need to read Happy Place again, I didn’t think the characters had any depth so didn’t rate it high

[@adagio387]

Which Emily Henry book would you recommend for a first timer? I tried book lovers ages ago but couldn't get into it but it may have been the wrong time.

[@taryndancer29]

Beach Read! She also has a back list and "A Million Junes" I can recommend ❤

[@natalie.thigpen]

loveee

[@ekaterinaivanova6896]

I love Rachel and her videos ❤ but am the only one who didn’t like Happy place that much? Like I’d ever reread it((

[@cindicleee]

❤❤❤

[@melissamorley8099]

I finished Enchanted To Meet You, but found it disappointing too.

[@thememoryguardians]

I loved the princess diaries book series and read them as a tween. I also love the first movie, but there are some key differences between the book and first movie such as location (manhattan vs San Francisco), but the second movie is entirely unrelated to anything that happened in the books so I’ve always disliked that one.

[@cindicleee]

❤

[@taylorchard9499]

Try James Patterson private series

[@Julie_ao]

😍❣️❣️❣️

[@luisajardim2908]

Just noticed that the blanket on the sofa 14:55 has the colors of the lesbian flag ♡♡

[@leticiaanalima]

i can never feel connected with sarah adams' characters :/ when in rome is on my 2025 tbr though, so 🤞

[@thememoryguardians]

I read this book and it was fine but I was very underwhelmed personally… maybe skip it 😂

[@Annarosegorman]

Hey, it seems like you’re a Christian. Just wondering why you are reading novels about witches.

[@taryndancer29]

Girl this isn't the 1600's.

[@Annarosegorman]

@ if she’s a Christian she shouldn’t be reading books that glorify witches and witchcraft.

[@taryndancer29]

​@@AnnarosegormanWitches and witchcraft are highly misunderstood. They're not bad at all when you really learn about it. Did you know that putting up a Christmas tree is a form of witchcraft?

[@carriekrahn5720]

Or how about hey, we don't try to dictate what people should read, Christian or not...

[@Harley24986]

Not me hating Happy Place lol 🫣 Rachel is going to come for me

[@taryndancer29]

I hated it too 😅

[@shaylaatiles]

Me too 😅😬
