when browsing for books to read, i always look for book reviews. reading vlogs have become some of my absolute favorite videos to film so i had to try out weekly vlogging... (spoiler alert: i read 2 books- my TBR was happy with this one). booktube and tiktok have buzzed about these books… let’s see if i’ll enjoy them. the video has a book talk / book review portion as i read the books that is completely spoiler free, as well as live reactions. i hope you guys enjoy this one hour weekly reading vlog and come out with one more book to add to your TBR and some good book recommendations for 2024!

Cant wait to complete the Witcher series. Also sorry to nitpick but Yennefer's name is pronounced with a Y instead of a J.

[@MelReads]

it’s that spanish speaking brain of mine wanting to pronounce it in spanish that clashes😩🤣 this’ll compute in my brain forever now, though lmaooo

[@MelReads]

it truly was a content heavy weekend and i LOVED it❤

[@kyra8138]

Ahh I saw you were watching Marry My Husband in the back while you were doing other housework. I literally binged most of the episodes the weekend before the final episodes came out lol

[@MelReads]

omg have you finished it?👀 it was the campiest ride ever, and i loved it!

[@kyra8138]

@@MelReads Yes I have! I finished it last Tuesday when the last episode came out. It's no 5 star drama for me but I loved the wholesomeness of the main couple.

Ok I don’t know if this is appropriate or not but you remind me of Addie larue so much because of your beauty marks and I feel like they make a constellation It’s so beautiful 😭🩷 Love you Mel 🩷

[@lulucollins6173]

Love watching your vlogs while having a day off. Listening to your vlog while cleaning my 7 year old room, she got so much knick knacks I’m finding all these random stuffs 😆

you just made my day, aaron🥹💖

[@jesspark4885]

Thank you so much for this vlog, it always feels like spending time with you. :) I‘m really interested in your reset day. As a bit of a messy person myself, I always appreciate Tipps and/or new routines. Maybe you could make a separate short video explaining it? All the warmest regards from Germany 😘

[@MelReads]

i’ve definitely been thinking about it👀 maybe something to talk about more in depth in a different video!

[@Beafree]

ugh on the rotten egg, I'm so sorry. I've gone through that. I always say I have to crack the egg in a bowl first, do I do it? nope. Life is a gamble. LOL

[@MelReads]

LMAO it requires a lot of trust to not put it in a bowl first, and that’s how i do it too🤣

[@mimz_]

✨⭐✨ Otherworldly cover is absolutely gorgeous 😍 I too love matching bookmarks, but pity I don't have more than 3 😔 I really wanna read written in the stars Also don't worry about the lightning. You look beautiful. I personally love the dim light vibe, even more so because your videos post after midnight for me. And yes I absolutely love the weekly vlogs!!!

[@MelReads]

i love the dim lighting too! it really is the way i want to lather my apartment in moody lighting🤣

I'd love to get into the witcher series but i havent read high fantasy in FOREVER 😅

[@MelReads]

that’s fair! i always recommend the audio for this series, so maybe that’ll make it easier to get into👀

[@liminal.season]

@MelReads Audio always helps me, so that is a gREAT suggestion!!

[@Ms.HGL.]

written in the stars is definitely going on my tbr. 4.5 is a really good rating. Sold! 🌟

I’m reading These Twisted Bonds currently ✨⭐️💫 but will now be adding these gems to the never ending list ❤

[@MelReads]

lmao love the never ending list🤣

[@thebookishvalkyrie]

Written in the Stars was a book I wished I had enjoyed more, but I’m hoping to give the author a second try because it definitely could’ve just been my mood. ✨

[@MelReads]

that’s totally fair! hopefully another one will do the trick❤
