Hugs!

[@sharreadsallday]

I’m so excited for my hold for daydream to come in. And that cocowyo coloring book is so freaking cute! I’m so glad you’re enjoying coloring 🥰

[@gabbyreads]

Thanks Shar!! 🥹🥰

[@mickeyhank]

Thanks, Gabby for another fun video! I love the variety that you put in your Vlogs and there’s always suspense about whether you’re going to like a book because you’re so honest, which I love. Good effort, driving to that far away park, I felt awful that it was raining so hard when you got there. That apple dessert you made looked great. 😊

[@sheyannestewart]

Now I need to go buy that coloring book it’s so cute!!

[@Neil-writer-author]

I’m not the greatest at coloring either. It’s such a good outlet.

[@223rajah]

OMG I saw Speak No Evil in the movie theater and LOVED it! So intense and messed up!

[@ashleyslittlelibrary]

omg I just recently got that same coloring book and have been making my way through it!

[@gabbyreads]

Yesssss twins 👯 🤩

[@sheyannestewart]

I felt the same way about the last one at the wedding it was so disappointing!!

[@HeatherCorinneCrochets]

I NEED the link for your marker organizer!

[@harshgogia2715]

Just a random tv show rec i hv been watching two tv shows that i absolutely loved 1. Will and grace(comedy) 2. Six feet under (drama) Probably the best tv show finale in history of television in six feet under

[@jamesduggan7200]

That dinner with the pasta looked so good. btw, I really enjoy coloring too. I took a few art classes in college but like you I'm a total neophyte. Enjoy!

[@TashaxMack]

Have you read The Immortalists by Chloe Benjamin? It’s similar to that Liane Moriarty book. The characters find out about their fate and then you follow the decisions they make after. I personally enjoyed it!

[@gabbyreads]

Yes I have!! I enjoyed that one too! ❤

[@spookybookz9981]

Absolutely adore that book, still think about it now

[@VenusEscapesToRead]

Yes! I’ve been loving coloring for my anxiety! Loved seeing your coloring pages! I’m the oldest sibling too, I’ll definitely be checking out Daydream!

[@rachelmcdonald6092]

I love the colouring books! They are adorable

[@bethanymarquez808]

Your coloring pics are cute! I get it girl with figuring out what colors go together I think that’s why I do the color by number lol. It does make a great pass time for sure. So sad I didn’t like Jason’s new book I was so excited but I’m glad to hear your thoughts to save a headache or boredom 😆

[@gabbyreads]

Aw thanks Bethany 🥹🥰

[@ambrelicious04]

Omg coloring has been so therapeutic for me!

[@justinasanchez8213]

I enjoy when you include your coffee time rather it is making it yourself and or going out to get it,

[@somritamisra468]

Waiting for my copies of The Last One at the Wedding and Here One Moment 😊 great to hear your review beforehand 😊

[@VeraFran]

A book with a similar premise to The Mesure and Here one moment that I read a few years ago and really liked was The Immortalists by Chloe Benjamin.

[@krystalwithak2889]

Yes girl ive been seeing coloring all over my fyp ( on tiktok). So eventually decided to give it a try lol. And im happy i did it's so fun and relaxing.

[@kellyreadingbooks]

Your apple crisp looked delicious!! If you get super into making baked goods that needs cold butter cut into flour like biscuits, scones, shortbread etc it’s sooo worth getting a gadget called a “pastry cutter” - I think it’s like $5-6 from Walmart or Target and it’s so worth it, makes cutting in butter 🧈 a BREEZE

[@Julesbooksandthings]

Your Halloween day/evening festivities was such a vibe. We only got a few trick or treaters and I was sad. Girl, I need to work on my coloring skills too with the Ohuhu markers. I'm like how do these people make these look so good. 😄Loved the vlog and your food looks so yummy as always!

[@swtlilyuri]

I just wanted to say as a fellow Bellinghamster, I adore your reading vlogs 🤗🤗🤗

[@gabbyreads]

Thanks so much!! 🥰

[@carriem2655]

I need links for those coloring books and markers!❤ I just ordered the Liane Moriarty as my botm add on so excited to read it soon!

[@gabbyreads]

thanks Carrie! I just added a link in the description now for the coloring book and markers I was using! :)

[@carriem2655]

@@gabbyreadsthank you!

[@rebekahmackenzie]

I wish I could get into coloring more. I want to and like the idea of it but I'm such a perfectionist. It gets so worked up on whether or not it looks good or not. Good to know about the Matt Haig book. I also get queasy with body and medical stuff too. I have Daydream on my tbr. It looks so cute and I'm glad you liked it. I'm adding Here One Moment to my tbr. It sounds really good.

[@just_bea_weird]

Have you read The Immortalists by Chloe Benjamin? It has a similar premisse to Here one moment; 4 siblings find out as kids when they are going to die and you follow one after the other as the predictions are starting to come true. I really enjoyed that one.

[@17caria]

bringing Halloween into November--how cool is that.

[@Amber-ei6iq]

Thanks for the entertaining video as usual!!!

[@gabbyreads]

Thanks Amber!! ❤

[@areadersalmanacwithceleste1366]

Hi Gabby! Regarding the Moriarity book as a movie, have you ever heard of Final Destination? My anxiety was over the top with that one, but it has a similar theme! 🫣

[@melanieh1615]

I actually really liked The Last One at the Wedding. Frank is a badass. But I think the author really wanted to showcase the father daughter relationship and with the last chapter... spoiler....................., I believe we are meant to see that Frank is still going to love and be there for his daughter no matter how many times she screws up. He is still going to want a relationship with her no matter how awful of a person she is. I think that's kind of what the author was going for. Can't wait to read Here One Moment. Definitely a highly anticipated book of mine!

[@BookReviewsWithBecky]

I loved Such A Bad influence! Also Here One Moment!!

[@kimc8791]

I have the same problem with colours! I started crochet this year but I spend waaaaaaay too much time deciding on which colours go together...and then doubting every decision I make 😂😭

[@ReadingNymph]

Here one Moment sounds like such an interesting premise, it's a shame it didn't fully work for you!

[@JanAgaton]

the way i just bought the entire maple hills series for $21 on pango as i watched this lol

[@gabbyreads]

@@JanAgaton ohhhh shit haha 👀😍 I hope you enjoy them!

[@Greeneggsnblam]

I have the same colouring book and use Ohuhu alcohol markers but it bleeds through the back of the page. How do you prevent that from happening?

[@debbiea.2923]

Great ARC finds!

[@SuperStrangSshadow]

I've been coloring for like nine years but prefer the books by Kerby Rosanes, Teresa Goodridge, Johanna Basford etc. I love details.

[@monikaliane]

I read both of the thrillers and gave them 4s. I didn’t love them but super entertained

[@x.j.1838]

100 percent agree with that we don’t need cheery’s chapters. I rated it 2.75

[@typeonereader]

Why do I feel like Liane Moriarty wrote that book with the plan of it being adapted with how you described it :P

[@halslibrary]

Just an fyi in daydream the main characters name is Halle like Halle berry not Hailey’s comet!

[@strawberrylime33]

I thought your work in the coloring books was great! I need a good thriller to read and am torn between His & Hers by Alice Feeny and The Passengers by john maars. Which should i pick?

[@jkane601]

Will you be doing a most anticipated books for 2025?

[@JohnSaxon-vw5vi]

Another amazing and wonderful video love 🥰 it done ✅ by a very talented young lady prayers and blessings for you and your family love ❤️ your Aussie family friend John xx

[@kitkatkc9]

I think you’re thinking too much about a coloring book 🫶 drawing on your own on a blank paper is one thing, but coloring books are more about the process of coloring not the final product, for that relaxing child-like fun and peace 💕

[@Jodecisweet]

Interested to see what you think of Daydream, I haven’t read it but the majority of what I heard was that it was the most disappointing one out of the three books so far

[@sheyannestewart]

The life impossible really not it for me I was so bored!!

[@heyyycarissa]

i went to jason rekulak's launch event for TLOATW and had the pleasure of meeting him. he was so kind and down to earth. i absolutely loved this book, i thought the perspective of a 50-something dad was really unique and realistic. i loved how abigail ended up being a significant part of the story but didn't overpower any of the scenes. but i do agree with you about the very last chapter. that last page left a lot to be desired and it felt very out of place. the musical scene towards the end felt like a good ending but i think it was a way for the reader to get some kind of closure between frank and his daughter. it just wasn't well done. just my thoughts!!!!! xoxoxo

[@amyrosaline]

Is this speed up? I had to check my settings lol

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

The life impossible was SOOOOO boring 😵‍💫

[@gabbyreads]

😭😭😭

[@sharath_95]

[@spookygeek9459]

[@KlaraBreznik-jm9pj]

I DNF-ed Matt Heig's new book. Sooo boring.

[@Toriemichelle-uv8fd]

Your putting to much thought into coloring just color have fun and relax I color too I just do it for relaxation stop being g hard on your self okay you can do p.s. suga went to Chicago and he also did a vlog on it check it out

[@KlaraBreznik-jm9pj]

Well, she said waaaay too much about the Liane Moriarty book. I feel like a already read most of the book :( Write a disclaimer beforehand lady.

[@gabbyreads]

I didn’t talk about any spoilers for the book…?
