[@straverry_tae]

i love videos like this when booktubers all “team up” to give us one video of everyone’s recs🫶✨

[@Julia-rw8tc]

My 4 favourite booktubers involved in one video - i guess booktube doesn’t get better than that 🤝❤️

[@sewsav7421]

SAME!

[@TeaganParker-x4c]

fr tho :)😁🥰

[@sarahschuer1605]

Your coffee mug at 20:37 is so adorable. I love this video! We’d all watch part 2, 3, 4, etc of this type of video for sure. I know I’m not alone in asking for more of this content. ☺️

[@martinamicallef7931]

i was thinking the same thing about the mug!

[@nevebx]

I HAVE THE MUG ☕️🧡

[@thomberlychannel]

I feel like you’re still torturing us with not reading Once Upon A Broken Heart yet. I just can’t wait for you to read it!

[@franziskajellinek]

DEF make this a series!! one of the best parts of booktube is that it feels like a close knit community of book loving friends and this really ties it all together i feel like

[@crowchetcreations4888]

When I read Divine Rivals, I was transported. The language, the story, etc. I hadn’t felt that way reading a book in a long time. I’m so glad you enjoyed it!!

[@annacant6630]

the green bone saga is so special. the first half of jade city can be pretty tricky, but PLEASE continue the series! It just gets unbelievably good. I think working to understand the world in the beginning almost creates this bond between the reader and the text. once it clicked, it was actually so magical. The world and the characters have so much depth and nuance. Everything in this series just feels so real. Will forever think about this series.

[@TorturedFolklore]

Binding 13 was an experience I will never forget. I loved it so much. I would say it’s my only 6 star book aside from Jane Eyre. The slow burn and the story, it’s just incredible. And it’s not that it’s a crazy plot, it’s just a good story. I am so attached so this book.

[@JemimaRose]

binding 13 has a broken heart on the cover but keeping 13 has a full one so i think you’re gonna get your happiness, bestie

[@rachelwright9226]

The Boys of Tommen series is my absolute favorite series of all time! These books will break your heart and put it back together again. Best found family ever! But be warned they do get harder/sadder as the series goes. But the author gives each couple a HEA!

[@ananyarao3363]

Binding 13 and keeping 13 are literally my fav books ever❤ can’t wait to see what you think about keeping 13!

[@positiveljoseph6252]

I love the series myself!

[@mimirudollfie3532]

Divine Rivals was so good. I’m excited to read the second book Ruthless Vows. 😊

[@clary1120]

4 of my favorite booktubers in one video?? What more can I ask for? I love it!!! Adore you Rachel!! Maybe do a part 2 with other booktubers you love!! ❤❤

[@x..m1ya..x]

I love these reading vlogs! They literally motivate me to read books people choose for me

[@booksby__emily]

The green bone saga series has become a favourite of mine! I will admit the politics was hard for me to get through in the first few hundred pages of Jade City. The series progresses and there are a lot of time jumps in between Books BUT WOW Fonda Lee's writing is absolutely magical. The Kaul family will always have my HEART 🥰

[@shaylaatiles]

the green bone saga is sooooo good!! every character is very important and goes through some tough stuff, but that’s what makes it so gut wrenching. she has no mercy lol

[@addisonclairep]

OH MY WORD!!! i love divine rivals sm!!!! the ending is shocking and i ATE IT UP!!!! the romance the plot all of it are chefs kiss 👌🏻😂

[@thesandrapages]

Looove the feeling of getting lost in a book & not rly knowing why but knowing it’s amazing and you can’t stop reading 🥹🫶🏻

[@alysoncruse]

The ending of Divine Rivals had me FREAKING OUT!!! I need the second book so bad!

[@glitterandguitaars]

I think the Green Bone Saga is my favourite fantasy series of all time. The first one definitely takes a bit to get into but by book 3, INCREDIBLE 📣

[@lyricsreads]

the holy trinity + rachel = a perfect video

[@shelleylawrence8397]

That is SUCH a good idea to watch vids about a book you aren’t fully grasping. I’m borrowing that.

[@RachelCatherine]

honestly so helpful!!

[@isabelblackshaw9748]

jade war and jade legacy are SO good!! the series just gets better and better i love it so much

[@KarinasBookNook]

I would for sure watch all the parts of this video tag! I LOVE getting book recommendations and this is such a good way to do that. I love this community so much. It actually inspired me to start my own booktube

[@fifs7400]

im gonna read binding 13 rn because of you!! i had it but was so scared cs it was intimidating cause of its size

[@amandah82]

I totally agree about the Divine Rivals girlies and the Fourth Wing girlies. I’m definitely a DR fan. So glad to see all my favorite booktubers ban together! You should definitely do more of these. 😊

[@AnjaDM]

I’d love to see how you mark up your books/what methods you have for that!

[@sofiaroldan4781]

i am so so happy that you loved divine rivals !! it’s one of my fav books ever

[@susansegal1808]

You need the American cover. It’s stunning

[@hanaosmani3309]

I getting ready for school and watching you is so relaxing

[@sydneyholifield2987]

I love it when you do longer videos!!

[@layababu-pm2km]

i love her when she raves about the books❤

[@tooyoungx]

this is my new favorite video. i love watching booktuber rec videos so much. all of my favs

[@chocolateoreo6489]

You are such a ray of sunshine in human form❤☺️

[@nozomischmoock8799]

When I started jade city I literally thought I was too dumb to understand the book but as I kept reading it has become my favorite book of all time. The rest of the series is so much better I promise and the next books have character lists in them which helps a lot!

[@kaymay2024]

Thanks for explaining Jade City a little more it’s on my TBR too and feeling ready to read ✨🤎🫶🏾

[@faithfultotheKing]

Im so stoked about this you should def do it again💛

[@DDanielleemma]

I’d love to see a video on how you annotate your books x

[@maariyahsacha]

Same. Like idek what i annotate

[@emilyjade7708]

Now I am CHOMPING my way through my current book so I can get to Divine Rivals 😭💜 it sounds so good

[@trigintillion1517]

I love your videos so much and its the perfect way to finish off my day

[@ciarab4608]

As someone from Ireland I love when I see people trying to make sense of the Irish words and slang 😂😂

[@wolfme4030]

Jade City has been a struggle for me. I have both audio and Kindle versions but have only listened to some of it. I’m also trying to read a wide variety of books and I am considering reading Binding 13. Romance isn’t something that I would tend to reach for though I have enjoyed it occasionally in the past.

[@readingwkatelyn]

one of my fav videos of yours!! so many good books and such a fun concept!!

[@thebookbujo]

I love this concept!! I'm actually currently reading Divine Rivals so it's good to hear about your experience since I was like.. no plot? LOL Also I had the same experience with Jade City and I haven't tried again but I'm gonna do that and use your tips hehe

[@popstarbelle]

It's always a great day when Rachel posts

[@caitlingrace08]

Booktube is literally the best thing ever. ❤❤

[@readwithroxy]

I loved Fourth Wing and Divine Rivals! I think with both I struggled a bit with the MCs seeming a bit juvenile, yet dealing with very mature topics. Not sure if that makes sense? But either way both were very entertaining😊

[@bookthoughtswitheilish]

So excited to pick up Binding 13, love books set in Ireland 😊🇮🇪

[@ambercastleberry9879]

Absolutely loved this!! ❤️❤️

[@sofiasverdrup6087]

THE DIVINE RIVALS COVER OMG 😍

[@priyar4885]

Its so pretty! I wish I had that copy!

[@sofiasverdrup6087]

@@priyar4885 me too!

[@kalaniherndon1191]

I love all of your book merch 😊

[@Kittyzero13426]

i love these videos because it gives you an insight that not every booktuber likes the same books.

[@Onniesprairiegarden]

You've got me excited to read Divine Rivals! Your doxie boy is such a darling!!! I'm a doxie owner, too.

[@kaymay2024]

I just bought jade city!! Can’t wait to read 🤪🥳

[@elenasajeva3364]

OMG IS THAT A MAGNOLIA PARKS SWEATER?!❤

[@larimartt]

I love the book girlies, this community is the best🩷

[@maddyweyman]

All of you are adorable!!

[@charlotteanncooke6834]

Divine rivals was a 3* read for me I almost DNF this three times but the last 30 pages was the best part 😂 but fourth wing was 5* for me loveeeedddd that book 😂

[@starlasell5698]

❤📚❤️ FUN!

[@augustuslover]

my four best girlies ❤️❤️ i want you guys with larry!

[@Lizzy_Garfield]

When you read once upon a broke heart this month IM BEGGING YOU TO FILM READING THE BALLAD OF NEVER AFTER I NEED TO SEE YOUR REACTION

[@hannaheilish24]

no cause im loving having Winnie in these videos xx

[@alekhareads]

Ohhh yes I’ve been waiting for this video!!

[@jasperscornerrr]

THANK YOU for the trigger warning for binding thirteen I didn't know that and I may need to wait to start that one!

[@marysbookcase]

i was EXACTLY the same with Binding 13!!

[@mercedesjones4114]

I recently read Jade City and literally felt the same way BUT I keep hearing the other 2 books make up for the first one so I’m keeping the faith 😂

[@sophiakielblock1028]

Jade City is one of my favorite books so I'm glad you gave it a good chance! Its a very politics heavy book which I usually don't enjoy but somehow I was HOOKED

[@tasbiha114]

fav type of videos

[@AprilShowers560]

Rachel, I am loving these book videos. I wonder if you would consider making a quick video on how to set up and use a kindle. I’m a little bit (lot) older than you and technology challenged. I have requested a kindle for my birthday coming up soon and am just confused by all the information out there. Most of the videos I have watched are American and I think our system might be a little bit different here. For example, can we borrow ebooks from the library and put them on our kindle in Australia?

[@jazminee3601]

you should ask steph and alexa raye next! :D

[@hridyasworld2752]

3:20 why is the cup so cute!💗 Where did you get the cup from!

[@camillecreps]

I pretty much only read books that the book girlies like and I always end up loving it

[@chocolateoreo6489]

I adore bestie Racheal ❤ I’m sending you love and self care! Please remember you matter (:

[@geegee6752]

Greenbone Saga is one of my all time favorite fantasy seried because of how clever and political it is. And no character has a plot armor. The author did not held back letting her characters suffer.

[@priyar4885]

I love your videos so much!

[@shelleylawrence8397]

Love this! What do you use to underline you passages? Also, what is your beaded bookmark? So cute!

[@ashleybeckrreads_]

Omg I loved this!!!

[@edwardleecaliforniausa]

Good morning Rachel happy Thursday morning and I just wanted to say that your vlogs is amazing I enjoy your channel

[@prerza]

this was so cute

[@lar.k2]

i lovee this video!! Also where is you’re sweater from with ‘how’s the weather, Paris?’ It’s so cute :)

[@taylorsversion1433]

idk where it’s from but u can just look up “how’s the weather parks” and you’ll find one like it! it’s from a book series called magnolia parks

[@Showtunediva]

I loved loved Divine Rivals!! ❤

[@brittanym6981]

I’ve been reading the green bone saga and the first book was good but the second book is so so so much better!!!

[@shellyyyt20]

This video was so good!! I just finished reading the second book in the spin off trilogy by Stephanie Garber I def recommend reading!

[@lindsay.b]

please do a reading vlog on keeping 13!!!

[@ruthm8094]

I'm not even done watching but I'm soooo glad you're a Divine rivals girly

[@myad.5618]

8:32 book bestie girly where did you get your Velaris tshirt ??? I know it’s from Etsy but I can’t find it anywhere

[@ChristiePaterson-sn6jd]

hey Rach if you could choose ONE book that you have read to recommend people, what would it be? besides magnolia parks - I loved that! By the way, where did you get the Magnolia Parks merch? Could you possibly do a video on that, please?

[@mayar2se]

Divine rivals is one of my fav books ever ahhhh

[@lolafaye-oq8ew]

13 minutes ago! letting booktubers choose what i read never gets old

[@hannaa7872]

Great video! Did you speed up the texting or is that how fast your type?😅

[@Cleansingmilk]

ILYYYY❤❤❤

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Amazing video Rachel!😸😸

[@iamthatxx]

I absolutely adore Jade City but ngl I was so scared seeing you pick it up because I know it's not up your alley

[@kelsiemscharr]

When are we going to get a UK/US book girlie collab video???🫢🙏🏼🥺

[@JessicaSteyer]

Binding 13 is my only 6 stars book since I started reading this year.

[@awollin8267]

22:51 had me laughing out loud

[@lauraxx231]

I feel like Divine Rivals is for the hopeless romantic girls...definitely a five star

[@kaya.graceee]

Please read Powerless soon too! It’s soooo good 😂
