The interior decorating of the title page looks so fun! I might have to try that out! So excited for “Chain of Thorns” tomorrow!

[@katieisreading]

i highly recommend!! it’s so fun!!

[@Ronnie-kh7qe]

whenever i have a reaction to reading a book-like being shocked or crying-i know it’s a book that’ll be reread many times! that’s how you know it’s a good book 😊

[@withl0veamy]

Love this! I just started reading the mortal instruments series and I love it

[@katieisreading]

I simply cannot live without your videos♡♡

[@Ronnie-kh7qe]

[@katieisreading]

you’re so kind thank you!!

[@Lillyjoy]

I love the art in the sprite & the gardener! I read that last year and my favorite part of it was the art 😊

[@Mymakermovie77]

Omg I was just this morning looking when you last uploaded so this video had perrrrfect timing! Cannot wait for Chain of Thorns coming out, but I’ll probably read a summary instead of re-reading because aaaah I don’t have time LOL

[@heathers_happily_ever_afters]

I can't wait for Chain of Thorns either! I pre-ordered the kindle version so I can start reading it at midnight. I'm going to buy the physical copy too later tomorrow lol.

[@NeonFrills]

Good Luck on your last semester!! Your scrapbooked title page looks so good?? A really sweet love letter to the book. I need to try it myself for some of my favorite books now.

[@katieisreading]

thank you so much!! and yes i highly recommend doing some scrapbook title pages for your favs, it’s so fun and i love it so much🖤

[@kyntobean]

Love watching these so much!! Your reading vlogs honestly give me so much inspiration to do some reading of my own✨

[@katieisreading]

ah thank you so much! and yay! that makes me so happy to hear🥺✨

[@HannahsRecentReads]

i felt the same way about the name of the wind. it was all good and fine but i wanted more magic and fantasy-elements

[@katieisreading]

yeah… it was almost there, but not quite unfortunately🙁

[@theverybest_carley919]

I’m not sure you’ll even see this comment on an older video but I’ve currently been binging your videos to get caught up to current time and just watched this one. I LOVED the cover page decoration, I haven’t seen that before. I really hope you do more and would love to see you decorate Kingdom of the Wicked!

[@Xoxo_gaming5000]

I ordered like all of the shadow hunters series and I’m so excited to reread the mortal instruments and start everything else ❤

[@katieisreading]

ooh i hope you enjoy them!!

[@suzannemoore404]

I have Chain of Gold on my tbr for the year so this was a great vlog and it made me even more excited to be reading the series!

[@katieisreading]

yay!! i hope you love it if you pick it up soon!!🥰

[@ReadingNymph]

Love the scrapbook idea at the start of a book ♡ looked so good

[@katieisreading]

thank you!! it was so fun

[@HannahsRecentReads]

i just found your channel this weekend and have been binging all of your vlogs!! 🙌🏻🖤

[@katieisreading]

ah thank you so much!🥺🖤

[@MariasNook]

Honestly I totally understand that Chain of Thornes coming out is kind of a bitter sweet thing for you. In german there is a saying that goes "Vorfreude ist die schönste Freude" and it basically means that anticipation is the loveliest kind of excitement. I really believe that's true because the excitement you feel when looking forward to something is a completely different kind of excitement. Of course the thing itself is exciting too and it can create exciting memories but all that never truly matches the excitement of looking forward to something.

[@katieisreading]

wow that’s way too accurate and now i’m sad😭😭 thank you for sharing though! i’m glad to know that it makes sense

[@dariareads3728]

Loved the collage page it looks sooo good😍

[@katieisreading]

thank you so much!!

[@art3mis86]

Just finish reading the hobbit for the first time this week. It’s a shock i didn’t get to it sooner. They’re was a couple of things that was pissing me off but overall i really enjoyed it. Thinking about reading the lord of the ring next. Oh and also your custom page inside of chain of iron is just so pretty.

[@katieisreading]

i really loved both the hobbit and the lord of the rings!! so glad you loved the hobbit as well :) and thank you so much!

[@sofiapineda8248]

I love how you decorated your book,I'm going to try it myself

[@katieisreading]

thank you! i hope you enjoy it as much as i did!!

[@ariel7942]

If you do a little Avatar vlog I wouldn't be mad. It's such an amazing show. Keep watching it just gets better, and the finale in season 3 is one of the best things you'll ever watch 🙂

[@sylwiaoles8686]

💕💕💕 I really love Chain of iron (Lucie and Alastair are my fav characters!)

[@katieisreading]

ah they’re both great!! alastair has definitely grown on me throughout the series and now i really like him!

[@Adele975]

Omww The Title Page Decoration was sooo beautifull!!😱😱😱❤️

[@katieisreading]

thank you so much!!!!🥺

[@alexisachickennugget3500]

I love the first page deco! I like to make collages with Pinterest’s new shuffle app for books I love. It’s so much fun, and I like to print them out for my book journal reviews as well🥰

[@katieisreading]

thank you!!! and that sounds so fun, i might have to try out something like that at some point!

[@zoyaaudrey1533]

Yeay a new video.. i've been wanting to read this book so much. Also your video had been kind of "accompanied" me this whole month. I love your sharing, books, thoughts on the books. Everything about this channel is very heartening and calming. Not to mention, her taste in reading very similar to mine ❤❤ i am glad i found this channel this month.. subscribed it right away after the first video 👍🥰❤

[@katieisreading]

oh my gosh you’re so kind, thank you so much🥺🥺🖤

[@AdrianasWonderland]

The sprite and the gardener is also on my TBR. It looks so beautiful by the graphic novels are so expensive. I also wanted to pick up the name of the wind but it’s so big I’m literally scared of it Hahaha

[@katieisreading]

i feel that, that’s why i usually borrow graphic novels from the library or read them online, i love them but i can’t afford them😢 but the name of the wind really isn’t too bad (i mean it’s not short but at least it’s not like 1000 pages?), it felt kind of long to me but that’s just because i wasn’t really enjoying it tok much, you should totally check it out if you’re interested though!!

[@nooresahar8352]

i have recently started to decorate my books like this too and i so love it i did the same kinda stuff to my copies of chain of iron and chain of gold 🤤🤤 also out of merry theives Matthew is my favourite 😭😭😭😭

[@katieisreading]

right?? it’s so much fun! i can’t wait to do it to my copy of chain of thorns when i finish it😢

[@samanthaayer]

Agree on Name of the Wind.. I felt like there was no excitement or payoff especially for how long it was!

[@katieisreading]

exactly!! i’m glad to see someone else feels the same way about it😭

[@janet5123]

Great vlog 🎉 Adorable scrapbooked title page! I have the Thorns novella on hold at the library but the book hasn’t even arrived there yet-love some cozy fantasy. I take it you won’t be buying and reading Wise Man’s Fear? 😂

[@katieisreading]

thank you!!🥰 i hope you love secrets of thorns manor, it’s just so cute😭 and no… i don’t think i’ll be reading the wise mans fear in the future haha

[@izelk9759]

I feel like I'm talking to a friend when I watch your videos

[@katieisreading]

oh that makes me so happy to hear!🥺

[@idk-dz]

Highly recommend reading As Long As Lemon Trees Grow. It's a 2022 release.

[@emilypaige722]

we love waking up to a katie vlog ✨

[@katieisreading]

hope you enjoyed🥺

[@emilypaige722]

@@katieisreading i love your videos SO much!!!

[@michellemp1626]

Katie, thank you so much for sharing your idea to scrapbook one of the first pages in Chain of Gold. I love that so much!! After watching, I started scrapbooking one of the books I'm currently reading. It's called The Wives by Tarryn Fisher. I wish I could upload a picture here. I just started the book, but some key points have presented themselves. I'm so happy with my page. So fun!!! Thanks again. 😊

[@katieisreading]

it’s really so fun!! i’m glad i got to share it in this vlog with you and that you’re enjoying doing it as well! i can’t wait to do it to more of my fav books🖤

[@libbysreadingcorner9564]

I never got to reread The Name of the Wind this month, this month was not the best reading month for me. I still need to read Chain of Iron because I was buddy reading that world with a friend of mine and we never got to Chain of Iron. Can't wait for Chain of Thorns to come out which will be tomorrow.. Great reading vlog as always

[@katieisreading]

i’m so sorry you didn’t have a great reading month :( hope next month is better for you!!

[@libbysreadingcorner9564]

@@katieisreading thanks it happens sometimes, I am hoping that next month is better too

[@gerniahliburd]

I loved this video as always 💙✨ This was perfect vlog to watch before Chain of Thorns comes out. I can’t wait to go pick up a copy tomorrow and immediately start reading it! (Though I’ll probably be devastated when it’s over 😢)

[@katieisreading]

thank youuu!!💙✨ and i hope you survived chain of thorns, i certainly didn’t😭

[@gerniahliburd]

@@katieisreading to be honest, I’m not really sure if I did 😭

This vlog is brilliant... not just your ordinary run-of-the-mill brilliant- it is extraordinarily brilliant. 😉

[@katieisreading]

please this made me laugh so hard😭

[@lilybrewer8115]

Could you do a video discussing the reading order for all of Cassandra Clare’s interconnected series??? I am DYING to read them but i just don’t know where to start!!

i actually talked about it in my chain of thorns vlog that i’m posting soon!! :)

[@katieisreading]

[@pamdavies6199]

im gonna have a go but it isnt gonna be as good as yours x

[@nicholleurcuyo6874]

I love your videos!! At of curiosity, could you show how you find good deals of used books on amazon? Like your Strange The Dreamers UK Hardcover set? 👉👈😁

[@dgoz97]

So. I just finished Mysteries of Thorn Manor, and I had to pause this vlog before you gave you opinion so I could go in blind. I loved it, it was so cute!! I'm really excited I got a personalized copy and it came with a bookmark that looks like the fairy tale grimoire. Also I definitely go towards cuter style graphic novels and I've read Sprite and Gardner, I would recommend Between Snow and Wolf for another short, gorgeous, magical one. Also tea dragon society but I know you already have that on your list. Um, where is your black sweater from because it looks so cute and cozy? And I hope you're enjoying Chain of Thorns since I know you got it today!

[@katieisreading]

ah i’m so glad you loved mysteries of thorns manor!! that’s so cool that you got a personalized copy too! i just googled between snow and wolf and i need to read it now, it looks so pretty omg, thank you for the rec

I’ve been waiting 🤞🤞🤞🤞

[@katieisreading]

[@michellemp1626]

P.S. Your page turned out so pretty!!!

[@seabear13]

I just started reading clockwork angel. I’m going to read the books in chronological order. It was hard knowing where to start !!

[@katieisreading]

yesss! usually i would recommend reading the first three books in the mortal instruments first to kind of get acquainted with how shadowhunters work, but it’s really not necessary, i hope you love the infernal devices though!

[@seabear13]

@@katieisreading I did see that you recommended it that way in a previous video. But I think my brain has to read it this way! I’m loving it so much so far !

[@Interstellarpickles]

Please please read Vespertine by Margaret Rogerson. It’s sooooo good!

[@katieisreading]

it’s definitely on my mental ‘want to read’ list!!!

[@victor975]

I have heard many good things about the last hour series. Definitely checking it out and I’m getting mysteries of thorn manor .) sorcery of thorns was good especially the audio book :) and my co worker got me An Enchantment of Ravens :) also where did you get the bookshelf that’s behind you in your room? It’s unique 📚

[@katieisreading]

ah i hope you absolutely love the last hours!! i also loved the audiobook for sorcery of thorns, i feel like the narrator had such a nice voice! and i think i just got that bookshelf off of amazon, i would really recommend!

[@ellieskouros2174]

happy chain of thorns release day omg omg omg

[@katieisreading]

there are tons of great videos on youtube that you can look into!! that’s how i learned, once you get the hang of it it’s not too bad

[@alenasvetlik9975]

Cassandra Clare said that she was gona write another book like the bane chronicles on one of the characters from the last hours on her instagram so at liste it's not completely over

[@katieisreading]

ooh i actually hadn’t heard that yet!! thank you for this info, now i’m excited :)

[@michellemp1626]

Hey Katie! I feel so silly asking this but I was wondering what you typed in the Pinterest search area for samples of scrapbooked title pages. Thanks!!

[@katieisreading]

i can’t lie it took a lot of effort to find the right search? i don’t exactly remember how i ended up getting there, i think i might have looked for book annotations and looked for photos that would eventually lead me to more related photos? i feel like that doesn’t really help, but good luck!

[@michellemp1626]

@katie is reading thanks Katie!! It is challenging, reading journal spreads kept popping up. Lol which is nice too. Thank you so much, this was helpful

[@Lillyjoy]

Does the name of the wind have really descriptive writing? I’m really wanting to read something that has nice descriptive or atmospheric writing!

[@katieisreading]

i think it definitely has descriptive writing! the beautiful prose really help to set the scene!!

[@Lillyjoy]

@@katieisreading okay thank you!!😊

[@hyemiyah]

is there a dragon in tbona? regardless, that copy is so gorgeous and so is your title page of chain of gold.

[@katieisreading]

i hadn’t really thought about it but there’s isn’t?? i think since the series heavily revolves around stories and myths they wanted something magical haha! and thank you!!🥰

[@pamdavies6199]

it should say nothing and to sorry x

[@jeonsena_jk]

Are you Australian?

[@booksandteas]

i think i've been waiting for a new video for like a month. when in fact its just 3 days ago that she posted. thats how much i obssessed. its a me problem 🥲

[@katieisreading]

oh thank you so much🥺🥺

[@weehavetogoback]

My copy of chain of thorns won’t arrive until the 2nd and I’m trying to convince myself not to buy the kindle version in the meantime 😭 the miscommunication and love squares are a common theme in Clare novels 🥹
