“I literally just have dark hair 😨” 😂😂😂😂 TRUTH

[@xfanboyxreadsx]

“I want characters who hate each other” Literally same. I want them to LOATHE ENTIRELY.

[@ravenhairedreader]

100%!!!

[@soniama5246]

Not too , too much hate because when they do start to fall for eachother it must be sweet and believable....

[@nolita505]

The Mortal Fates series (Crown of Oaths and Curses) is the definition of enemies to lovers - assuming lovers is to come in the upcoming book! It’s long but devastating (in a beautiful way) and amazing - he’s completely blinded by his prejudice and loathing; she is a triumph.

[@xfanboyxreadsx]

@@nolita505 one of my top favorite reads from last year!!! I completely agree!

[@joliecravens4861]

“I literally just have dark hair” This took me all way out 😂😂 but also yes. 100 percent yes.

[@OKSooo_TV]

I’m so addicted to this channel. I didn’t like Throne of Glass and was bored halfway through ACOTAR but you recommended Crescent City and I’m obsessed!!! Now I can’t stop watching your videos.

[@margieavila8604]

The way you hyped Fear the Flames and The Witch Collector, I am going to order those 2 books tomorrow on Amazon because these books sounds amazing. 📚❤❤❤

[@AdrianasWonderland]

your vlogs always make me feel so nice, curently i am cleaning my room and i just love to watch yo while doing chores

[@ravenhairedreader]

awww thanks so much!! this is so sweet 💜

[@callieschmidt6260]

Every time I watch your videos I add two more books to my tbr 🤣🤣 thank you so much !!

[@nolita505]

I remember watching this epic video this summer and then reading Fear the Fames - and loving it. I waited to read Witch Collector till winter. I’m reading it now and loving it. Such good recs in this video!! I wish more people would read these books - they certainly rival Fourth Wing. ❄️🐉

[@JanAgaton]

oooh i've owned Fear the Flames for monthsss now and i've been eyeing it every single day lol

[@AWalleye]

The Fiancee Farce was such a great read! My favorite book of the year so far! I can't wait to see you get to it!

[@ginniereads]

I added that book to my TBR. I loathe when something is enemies to lovers, yet we don't really get the enemies part or it's not convincing. I neeeeeddd them to HATE, hate each other lol

[@Ellereads1]

I loved your vlog, you're so nice to listen to^^ Also on pure enemies to lovers, the book you just hauled crown of oaths and curses, is a true enemies, they have a blood feud, they hate each other, I want the male lead to grovel very much in the 2nd book bc my girl Rooke deserves it she's amazing

[@jackielopez9739]

I love the witch collector series. Book two is one of my top 2 books of this year so far. Fear the flames was really good too. Needed a bit more editing but I cannot wait for book 2.

[@starlasell5698]

I already have Fear the Flames on my Goodreads "want to read"...so happy to hear you loved it! Now I want to read it even more!! ❤📚❤️

[@ravenhairedreader]

yesss please do! it’s so good!

[@starlasell5698]

@@ravenhairedreader I will, for sure! Thanks for the review!

[@Lizzzy91]

Yes, girl. I completely agree. It's not enemies to lover if they don't have animosity on both side.

[@ravenhairedreader]

100%!!!

[@LochsLibrary]

ok now i am leaning towards fear the flame i just wish it was on KU! but the paperback looks nice and floppy 👀

[@ravenhairedreader]

i actually was thinking about you while reading it 🫦 but literally i was like oh i think lochlyn will like this. the romance is really good!

[@JulesIsWatchingStuff]

Omg now I want to read Fear the flames sooo bad. Love you 🔥

[@ravenhairedreader]

💜💜

[@liezllovesbooks]

adding Fear the Flames and the WItch Collector to my TBR

[@marliscan]

Im reading A Court This Cruel and Lovely, started last night. So far, im loving it. I hope it blows me away

[@ravenhairedreader]

oooh good to hear!

[@megangarrett8603]

What a great way to describe Between Wrath and Mercy. Everything was literally fine. It doesn't get any better than that. I DNFd the second book at like 75 percent because I was so bored.

[@CoverswithCassidy]

Oh no, now I'm nervous for between wrath and mercy! BUT very excited for the witch collector

[@ravenhairedreader]

please pick up the witch collector it was so so good!! 💜

[@Jess-dv6py]

Consider me convinced to pick up Fear the Flames immediately!

[@christinaschapters899]

Reading Devine Rivals now and I’m loving it.

[@KatiesBookNook426]

ooooo I’ve def had my eye on the witch collector!

[@emie4050]

i agree that i want an interesting world and plot in a fantasy romance as well!! it's so important to me

[@emie4050]

i just bought the witch collector, and all you said about it makes me think i'll absolutely love it, i'm so excited to read it

[@emie4050]

okay fear the flames was already on my tbr and i'm probably gonna read it sooner than i thought

[@emie4050]

🔥

[@ravenhairedreader]

yay! hope you love both!

[@ChanelChapters]

I absolutely agree about the mislabelling of enemies to lovers

[@HiddenNuggetttv]

Another cosy vlog I am READY ❤

[@GamenRead]

40 minute vlog! Mother is mothering.

[@ravenhairedreader]

hahah omg ily

[@macglam17]

Just finished divine rivals and omg fav book possibly ever.

[@JanAgaton]

YES DIVINE RIVALSSSSS. i haven't shut up about this since I read it

[@ravenhairedreader]

i’ve been hearing great things!

[@Sarah.reads.sometimes]

I recently read The Fiancé Farce & really enjoyed it! Have you read the other 2 books after Written in the Stars? One follows Brendan & the other follows Margot. Highly recommend 😊

[@ravenhairedreader]

i haven’t yet but i want to for sure!

[@Sarah.reads.sometimes]

@@ravenhairedreader 😊 The characters Fromm each previous books are very prevalent in the next books, a lot more than usual & I really liked getting to see more of Elle & Darcy.

[@booksanddrafts]

girl I wish I dnfed between wrath and mercy!! Such good potential for a single mum fantasy romance but it just didn’t hit😭 but I’m super excited for fear the flames now!!

[@ravenhairedreader]

FtF was SO FUN i think you’ll love Cayden 😏

[@rebekahwynne5138]

I agree about the dialogue being a little cheesy in Fear the Flames but I still enjoyed it nonetheless! I think that will only improve as the series continues! ☺️ such a fun plot 💚

[@ravenhairedreader]

100% how I feel! looking forward to the next book 🥰

[@hannahblackwellbooks]

I want to read all of these!! (Obvi hoping I have a dif opinion on bwam 😂😅) another awesome vlog!! 💗💕

[@christinaschapters899]

Is it bad that I want to buy the witch collector just because I love that structure for fantasies! Like that book feel is my favorite (idk if that makes sense) but yeah that’s it 😂

[@ravenhairedreader]

i think you’ll love this one too!!!

[@Bookbonkers8439]

I’ve been getting so many good fantasy romance recommendations from you, and I’m sad because I’ve become such an audio book reader and some aren’t on audio 😢 Great video though! 🔥

[@CoralTheWitch2023]

Thank you for your recommendations! I will be picking up The Witch Collector. I wanted to say that I love your lipstick! What brand/name is it?

[@ravenhairedreader]

thanks! i use charlotte tilbury cover star and l’oréal matte-cademia

[@Sweetkimmmy00]

I luvvv a long vlog omg

[@nolita505]

Fear the Flames 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Thank you 🙏🏼

[@kaylag88]

Yesss 🎉 love your vlogs! I just started Serpent ATWON 🐍✨️

[@ravenhairedreader]

thanks! ahhh I hope you have the best time with it!! 💜

[@kaylag88]

Thank you 😁😁 Super fun vlog, adding to my tbr! 🔥🔥🔥

[@Rp3nr]

Highly recommend Clare Sager's "Slaying the Shifter Prince" for actual hatred enemies to lovers, villain MMC!!! Verrrrry spicy, lol, so go in when you're really craving a spiccccy fanro, but they definitely actually hatehate each other (hate spice before love spice, too, lol). Really appreciate your thoughts on Fear the Flames and what to expect with it--I'm currently reading "Blood Mercy" which is so good, but sooo political and dense that Fear the Flames seems like the perfect fun and fast read to follow it up with!!

[@ravenhairedreader]

I actually bought this last night!! hope i love it 🙌🏼

[@simonesaysread]

“Her reputation era”🤣

[@mizzmarie2074]

unpopular opinion but your feelings toward the characters in Between Wrath and Mercy is exactly how I feel about the characters in the plated prisoner series I made it 2 and a half books in and still dont care what happens to the characters.

[@ravenhairedreader]

I actually ended up dnf-ing the series for similar reasons! I just slowly stopped caring about what was happening 🫠

[@JulEnglefaris]

It's pretty good if you made it to June before a DNF! ❤

[@crystalsbookishlife]

Have you read A Heart of Blood and Ashes by Milla Vane? True enemies to lovers. That book is one of my all time favorites

[@ravenhairedreader]

ooh no I haven’t!! adding it on goodreads right now!

[@miyayume_eclectic_dream]

YOU ARE RIGHT! I want the enemies to be enemies and hateee each other and than get to be romance!!! Exactly! It took me sooo long to understand THAT WHY I don't like the Bridge Kingdom...they don't hate and have one fight in chapter 25 and after that end in bed 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

[@JH-tv8zg]

"I am an optimistic little bitch" I feel so seen LOL

[@ravenhairedreader]

[@amieereads8452]

[@ravenhairedreader]

[@xfanboyxreadsx]

Ran here as fast as I could!

[@ravenhairedreader]

💜💜💜

[@thejeswith1s]

Yes! PURE enemies to lovers! Not just the woman doesn’t like him because “insert shallow reason or misunderstanding”

[@mariyajaveedkhan159]

You remind me of Veronica from archies comics❤❤❤

[@BetweenThePagesWithLouLou]

🔥

[@jennywilliams5689]

How many books have you read so far?

[@ravenhairedreader]

i have read 72 books this year 😊

[@ashleykinney4294]

Sad you didn’t like Between Wrath and Mercy, but still love your videos 🔥

[@reemhamdy1516]

If you want to read real enemies to lovers you should read the book of azrael! They hate each other until half of the book😂

[@caprisbookisland]

The witch collector sounds interesting …

[@ravenhairedreader]

it’s so fantastic! def recommend!

[@CoralTheWitch2023]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@juliadorry]

I love these🤍

[@HannahsRecentReads]

good morning i love you 🫶🏻

[@HannahsRecentReads]

“i want to read everything right now” is such a relatable reading mood!

[@HannahsRecentReads]

cannot wait to read the witch collector this weekend!!! i’m so hyped!

[@HannahsRecentReads]

enemies to lovers gets slapped on books so often and i go in with those expectations and it’s such a let down then because it’s almost always not. i need more hate, i need the grit, the antagonism.

[@HannahsRecentReads]

eeeeep fear the flames!! here we go besties, here the fuck we go 🔥

[@HannahsRecentReads]

“either the cheesiness is less OR…i am being gaslit by this book” 😂😂

[@Sweetkimmmy00]

I love how excited you get when you find a new book you love 🫶 like I’m sitting here happy asf for u and also jealous lik I need to feel that way about a book RIGHT NOW

[@ravenhairedreader]

awww thank you!!! i love being excited about books 😆
