INSANELY REAL ABOUT ARCHER’S VOICE. like that ending had my mouth and jaw hung open. I could NOT believe my eyes 😭😭😭 iykyk

[@bookswithellen]

i was DECEIVED!!! 💀😭😭😭

[@lo3896]

@@bookswithellen LITERALLYYY i was like… ain’t no way…

[@rebeccawickham7317]

What was so shocking? I read it and it was middle of the road for me haha

[@lo3896]

@@rebeccawickham7317 oh well SPOILER ALERT FOR ANYONE ELSE just the part where they were having that ceremony thing at the end where archer was making his speech. the chapter started off with saying that she missed archer and that it had been weeks since he was shot so i thought archer died bruh and only three pages in was i like oh thank god he’s alive HAHAHAHAH

[@elsxplr]

I read archers voice last week for the first time and I’m still not over it. Like, I want to reread it rn.

[@jil97]

My sign to finally pick up Archer's Voice. You really convinced me

[@sarawithbooks5316]

This is my sign to reread Archer's voice

[@Bookswithcharlotte]

Mine too 😂

[@crypticgembooks]

IKR! Hahaha

[@jenwullstein7908]

Mine too!!

[@taofyadigun8638]

So happy you loved Archer’s Voice!!! One of my favourite books of all time. Your reaction to the ending😭😭😭

[@bookswithellen]

i got such whiplash😭😭

[@joycewesley]

Love that this video came up on my timeline! I’m doing a TBR takedown series as well. I have no idea who created it, but it’s such a good idea. Love your vibe!

[@bookswithellen]

it’s so satisfying to do!! and thank you!

[@joycewesley]

@@bookswithellen it really is!

[@areebajaved8145]

Completely agree with your thoughts on Archer's Voice, It is my favourite book of allll time And yeah there is a companion novel, its called 'Travis', which is basically Travis' redemption story ❤️

[@Liveforlifecali]

Also the third companion novel just released!!! Falling for Gage. You meet him for literally one second in archers voice, but he’s a big main character in Travis’ book. Also, def recommend Travis’ book…. A phenomenal job at character redemption honestly

[@bookswithdreamcatcher]

Honestly, Same thoughts on ARCHER'S VOICE!!!!

[@ginahoogendoorn]

I would love to see a video of you reading f1 romance for a week

[@Cassandrareads]

Am I the only one who didn’t love Archer’s Voice? I thought it was ok

[@bookswithellen]

i’ve defo seen mixed reviews for it, so you’re not the only one!!🤍

[@MeganElisabeth]

Agree 100% about If He Had Been With Me. I felt the writing style made me kind of disconnected from the characters/story. On another note, you’ve convinced me to add Archer’s Voice to my Amazon Wishlist 😅

[@maddywilkie]

i love that you always have tulips in ur room 🌷

[@bookswithellen]

hehehe they’re my fave flower!!🌷🤍

[@bookswithdreamcatcher]

I really enjoyed all of these books and i really enjoyed hearing your thoughts on the books! I like this video idea as i have a lot of books on my physical tbr so i may just have to do it myself 🤣

[@esthermillard8414]

I liked archers voice it wasn’t my favourite thing ever but that one quote that’s like ‘he learnt a whole language and still had no one to speak to’ really got to me 😭😭

[@bookswithellen]

omg that line BROKE me😭😭😭

[@mirabarudde3059]

I love your tbr takedown videos!

[@rebeccawickham7317]

Archers voice was a 2/3 stars for me. I just didn't like it.

[@yay4645]

okay okay I'll finally read Archer's voice ahaha 😂

[@AllyssaRoberson]

if only I had told her does have new scenes in the last 2/3rds of the book but I still didn’t love it as much as I liked the first

[@ccamelots]

this is my motivation to work on my physical tbr loll wish me luck

[@juliacash8135]

Same I need to read my physical TBR as well!

[@BooksWithJudy]

I was just about to take a nap, and then I saw your video and now I'm not gonna nap and watch your video instead. Because I always watch your videos asap! Love you

[@bookswithellen]

omg i love you🥹 hope you enjoyed!!

[@BooksWithJudy]

@@bookswithellen Always loving your videos. ALWAYS

[@juliacash8135]

You should totally do this again with more comments from the same video as the last ones.

[@rd_1414]

I also didn’t really like the writing style in if he had been with me, I couldn’t really connect with either of the characters. It gave me the same vibes as how to make friends with the dark by Kathleen Glasgow

[@squidwardtentacles7144]

Oh my gosh! I literally felt the same way. I read that book about two years when was 17. So, I was lowkey in the target demographic for it, but even then I felt like it was written for 12 years old. No substance to the writing at all. It felt extremely juvenile and I just couldn't connect with Autumn at all. She was so annoying to me. And it's funny that you mention Kathleen Glasgow because I read "Girl In Pieces" by her last year and I strongly disliked that book for one of the same reasons. The writing style was just unbearable to me.

[@rd_1414]

@@squidwardtentacles7144 yeah same. And for both books I was so confused when I finished because they were so loved and hyped by others when I just found them annoying

[@maylinw8925]

I loved archer‘s voice so much😢 so happy that you loved it too

[@Xxannieee_09]

If only I had told her (the supporting book) has partly autumns pov, finnys pov but also jacks pov (I think that’s his name but finnys best friend). I loved it sm 😢

[@Nimpers]

Archers Voice is my all time favourite book!! I recently read Kyland by Mia Sheridan and it was also very very good!

[@arafisms]

unwanted by Mia Sheridan is also amazing actually liked it better than archer's voice. it's a Tarzan-adjacent retelling!!

[@ItsJessPrimrose]

Theres a spin-off book for travis called travis! In the works at the moment!

[@darcycairns5081]

there’s a book called travis in the works for £3.50 that is supposed to be his redemption story! also the side character gage at the end has his book coming out this month!! x

[@amandaa_ytlvr]

Archers voice was such a good book but yall the amount of smut. I felt like every time I turned the page, it was there AGAIN

[@emmaskapetis7603]

Great vlog💕. I'm going to read Archer's voice soon now (I've been wanting to read it for so long but I never have).

[@pottedivy]

Most Of All You by Mia Sheridan is on my TBR. Although I was going through a heartbreak when I bought it, haven't read it but I think it's sad, not 100% sure though.

[@eve.b5]

Ahhhhhhhh ❤ I love Archer’s Voice it was the oldest book on my tbr we’re talking released date old !!!! Until last November god I will die for him :”) my only complain is that I wish Travis throw his mom behind the bars

[@ravent3016]

Glad you got a five star! Nice to see the tbr takedown again. I'll go comment on that video. (Are you unhauling the first book, if he had been with me?)

[@kelsward]

I’m very excited for this

[@stephaniegrazioli9519]

I don’t like the writing either, it makes it confusing at some points. It seem like a little illiterate at times.

[@JemimaRose]

I haven't read Archer's Voice but I read Most of All You by Mia Sheridan last year & adored it!

[@nanireads_]

I felt the same way about Archer’s Voice😭💙 it just hits you out of nowhere!

[@rowan464]

The way you ended up with 3 sad books😭

[@bookswithellen]

I KNOWWWW i think the comment picker was cursing me🤣🤣

[@MSOHare1981]

Mia Sheridan: All the Little Raindrops, right now it's on kindle unlimited, at least in the states. I'm not sure about in England. Also there are two other books in the archer's voice series...

[@Liveforlifecali]

All the little raindrops is SO GOOD omg seeing you mention it just made me want to reread it

[@bxllapovey]

The Queen postedddd ❤

[@AnnaRak423]

Hey Ellen! Luv you and your videos! Keep doing you!! 🥰

[@bookswithellen]

thank you anna!!🌷🥹

[@Acrospa]

Plz keep doing TBR takedown

[@JenevaGriffin]

I've been on the fence about Archer's Voice. Literally picked it up a bunch of times and put it back. I literally just ordered it. I hadn't heard a genuine review of it that made me want to grab it. Until now. 👏🏾

[@bookswithellen]

i really hope you love it!!

[@macinnismama]

I love this series ❤️

[@Zuzannasbooks]

I saw these books on your currently reading on goodreads and I was so convinced it was gonna be a "reading sad books" vlog

[@Zuzannasbooks]

Also I just finished watching and there is a spin off of archers voice I think it's a spin off at least its called Travis and is also on KU!!

[@Turtledove2970]

Could you pls read the housemaid it’s a two book series consisting of the housemaid and the housemaid’s secret it’s a murder mystery / thriller and i think you’ll enjoy it . the only thing is it’s a YA but the written isn’t very Young .

[@bookswithellen]

i’ve read the housemaid and enjoyed it!! haven’t read the second one yet though🤍

[@Read_w_jess]

In If He Had Been With Me, it tells you what is going to happen in the very beginning. But yes on the way it reads…

[@Read_w_jess]

ALSO! There is a companion book. It’s called Travis. It is about archers brother, Travis! I can’t tell you anything about it, as I haven’t read it yet. But I have been told that it is his redemption story.

[@ChristinaMBasler]

Yayyy you picked my comment! 😁💗 glad you enjoyed the book!

[@bookswithellen]

heheeh thank you for commenting!!❤️🫶🏻

[@marereadss]

4:40 - ive never related to something more 😂 19:22 - this made my entire day!! im so happy you loved it!! 🥰 there is a sequel to archers voice called 'travis' following.. travis lol which is supposed to be his redemption arc and then also 'gage' being the third one in the universe i havent read either of those books yet because im kinda afraid it'll ruin the vibes of archers voice 🥺 i think that archers voice is getting adapted into a movie and im terrified of how it'll turn out 😭

[@bookswithellen]

omg i didn’t know it was going to be a movie🤯 it always scares me when books i love are adapted cos i never trust that they’ll end up good💀

[@marereadss]

@@bookswithellen me too! I just hope they stay true to the book as much as possible and cast archer right 🥺

[@crypticgembooks]

@marereadss I thought I was the only one afraid to pick up any other book in the series in fear that it'll ruin Archer's voice for me.. and omg im also terrified about the movie adaptation 😭😭

[@Merlin_reads_books]

I do that too! I choose a rating after finishing a book and at the end of the month, when I wrap up all the books I read, I adjust the ratings. Sometimes it’s higher, sometimes it’s lower. I compare to the other books I read and what I remember from them, etc. 😊

[@bookswithellen]

yes!!! i think it makes a lot more sense that way - i’ve started doing it in my vlogs where i do kind of an ‘instant’ rating, and then revisit it at the end to adjust. i’ve changed like 5 ratings recently because of it !!!🤍

[@Merlin_reads_books]

@@bookswithellen: at first I was trying so hard to get it "right" the first time with .25 and .75 sort of ratings, but then I realised I was never truly satisfied. I would always go back and change my ratings after reading a new book. So now I go back at the end of the month and I can apply those .25 and .75 ratings because I've got a better view of my recent reads and the ones that have left an impression on me

[@thefallybear]

There is a second book to archers voice. It’s called Travis and it’s his redemption arch and it’s so good. There is also one called Greyson I think which is about the guy Greyson in archers voice as well. Interconnected stand alones all on KU ❤

[@pacg__nkg295]

I wanted to love archers voice so badly bc how everyone else is loving it but i'm simply not a sweet romance girly Also i've been following you for a while (since 5k) and i love to see how your yt community is growing You deserve it frfr

[@goddessnix444]

LOVE the nails!

[@rachelhorn4535]

You definitely need to read Travis and the Falling For Gage! Both are also amazing!

[@raneem.e]

Mia Sheridan has written many other books set in the same small town as Archer’s voice, one on Travis and in fact, a new one is being released next month!

[@louisejames9064]

Love tbr takedown! And loved how darling venom matched your tulips in the background 😂 Never read archers voice so will definitely have to give it a try! Also red really suits you love the nails 😍

[@annascorner84]

I like this series! I was wondering if you would ever do another one. I know a lot of people like If He Had Been With Me but I just didn't love it. It was okay though. I don't think I'll read the other one. I think it's called If Only I Told Her or something like that. I agree Archer is wonderful! He is just too cute!

[@crypticgembooks]

OMG!! I'M KICKING SCREAMING THROWING UP RN!! i loved that you loved Archer's Voice!! It's 6 stars for me... Ive been wanting you to read it for soooo long just to hear your views Your pause in the video had me feeling anxious.. did she love it or hate it? I was like Ellen pls don't let me down ❤❤ i sobbed as well.. I love Archer and Bree soo much. I also agree with the conflict in this... It def fit with the story ❤❤❤❤

[@blimeyifancyreading]

Love your thoughts! You are one of the honest reviewers that love!

[@bookswithellen]

thank you!!

[@bevmartin2275]

There are 2 more books after Archers voice. Travis is one of them and falling for gage is the other

[@goddessnix444]

hii love.

I didn’t like if he had been with me, way overrated and I laughed at what happened 😅
