Reading Vlog Part 1 | Laundry + Library Run!

[@littlechibi2820]

Remus murdered me with his cuteness! Aahhh!!! Also, Preach!!! Preach, Girl!!! Preach!!! I feel you on how much pressure people can feel during the end of the year with reading. I love that you remind us that as a reading community, we're all here to encourage everyone who enjoys reading to keep on reading no matter the amount of books you read in a certain amount of time.

[@MegBookishRamblings]

Remus is so adorable and I love that he likes to fetch! I can completely understand the feeling of being overwhelmed with a TBR pile. I too tend to get overwhelmed by my TBR pile even when I do reach my Goodreads goal because there's so many books that I want to get to but only so much time and I get distracted by all the books I hear about and suddenly want to add to my collection. So I usually end up being in the middle of several books at once and wonder how I managed to get so far behind of my personal reading goals that I've set. I am not a competitive person either and don't feel the pressure to read certain books just because others are reading them because I've always tried to read what interests me and not what others thing I should be reading. Within the last year, I have been approved and approached more to read ARCs which I'm so very happy about which are about the only ones that I feel a certain pressure to read but also I have learned to say no to books offered that I won't find of interest. Oh the struggles of a book nerd lol.

Glad you could be super productive! Remus is sooo cute! Looks like a great book haul too!

[@michelby83]

All of the books you picked up at the library sound so good! All are going on my TBR!

[@lovemyne22]

Watching Remus play fetch just made my day!

[@alliah213]

Hi, Mollie! Up late watching your videos. Your library is so beautiful! Thanks for sharing your weekend with us. :)

[@jessilouwho22]

I absolutely love your vlogs--you have such a cozy vibe going on! It really makes me want to curl up and get some serious reading done. :) Happy holidays!

[@MollieReads]

Thanks Jessika!! So glad I can inspire you to get cozy and read! That's what I look for when I watch vlogs, so that makes me happy

[@LifeBetweenWords1]

Loved watching Remus play catch. What a funny cat! 😂😂😂

[@jenhasaplan]

Just died laughing when you talked about That Poppy. I was OBSESSED with her videos last year and could not look away. It’s so crazy! You totally made my day by bringing her up 😂

[@MollieReads]

LOL I love that you had the same reaction lol. We're still stuck in the That Poppy vortex ahhahaha

[@clarissaramalho_]

Greetings from Brasil!! Love your reading vlogs!!!

[@HelenaReads]

I agree with you, in my case the competition with myself helps me read good books!

[@chelseag3365]

Such an adorable cat! I am not allowed to have snuggly pets in my apartment, but someday I want a cat just like yours!

[@thebestiebooksleeve]

I feel that same “pressure” and scatterbrained feeling of starting too many books but not finishing. I hope you find some gems in your TBR to finish strong. 🤓

[@JustEssayIt]

I could honestly sit here and watch a 20-minute video about Remus. Could totally relate to having trouble to adjust to a sudden change in plans, that always throws me off. But it's nice to have that unexpected free reading time, right? :) Love that you're vlogging again!

[@MollieReads]

I cut out so much Remus footage, and it pained me to do so, so I'm glad to hear it ;). It IS so nice to have unexpected reading time! It's so strange how I used to be such a free spirit with my schedule and now I freak out when plans change. I guess that's anxiety for you!

[@alldbooks9165]

So funny. I just finished Crazy Rich Asians and Scrappy Little Nobody on audio, too. Both were great. I am so impressed with Anna Kendrick’s work ethic. Stop it! I loved Glass Castle earlier this year as well. I’ve really gotten into Memoirs lately. Have you read Born a Crime? It is so awesome. Even better on audio ( Audible). Your kitties are adorable. I have Furthermore but not Whichwood yet. They’re such pretty books. I am a real sucker for a pretty cover.

[@skijumpnose]

Another cool vlog,i have heard good things about The Red Notebook,sounds an intriguing story

[@BridgetReadsandReads]

Love this vlog, Mollie! I, too, worry about not being able to “read all of the good books”. I feel like I will not be able to read them all in my lifetime.

[@MollieReads]

AAHH I know, it really puts your reading in perspective, doesn't it?! I don't hesitate to put a book down I'm not loving lol

[@blackcatseye22]

Your cats personality reminds me of my dogs. So cute!!

[@MollieReads]

He is MUCH more like a dog than a cat!!

[@tonilemycupandchaucer4832]

NEVERMOOR is amazing ✨ I hope you love it!

[@mrm329]

Omgosh I feel the same way!! Such frustration when you don’t know what # a is in a series. Gahhh! Lol

[@MollieReads]

Lol i'm so glad I'm not the only one

[@serenalawson3123]

Have you ever read any Melanie Dickerson books? She writes some amazing fairy tale retellings!!!!

[@broccbadgerbean]

Really loved this vlog! I have the exact same conversations with my cat XD

[@kaelinreads6748]

I can't believe your cat fetches! I have never seen that!

[@CaseyCassidy]

Remus is so damn cute, I am currently dying to get a cat and hoping for a cuddly one. And love your vlogs besides just the cat parts :)

[@helenejeppesen2133]

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a cat wanting to ‘Go fetch’ 😂 If I throw a ball or a toy for mine, the most he does is run for it but he NEVER comes back with it!

[@MollieReads]

He's much more like a dog than a cat, I swear!!!

[@JLynnEchelon]

Mine fetches, too. She even carries around her cat wand in her teeth. Sometimes I wake up with the wand in my bed because she dragged it in while I was asleep.

[@AlwaysBooked]

I need your cat to come teach my Labrador retriever how to play fetch 😬Hes a little slow haha. I agree so much that series should be numbered on the books! So frustrating! Great vlog! Merry Christmas!!

[@MollieReads]

Lol, I know, I wish my dog played fetch like my cat hahaha. And UGH YOU GET IT. The struggle is real! Merry Christmas, Chloeeee!

[@26vertigos]

I am trying to finish all the books that I started and never finished 🤣 I promised myself that I am not starting any new books until I finish those! (I had 7 unfinished books and I finished 2 on Sat)

[@MollieReads]

Oh man, if I followed that rule, I'd NEVER start a new book lol. That's awesome though!!

[@broccbadgerbean]

P.s. I read Nevermoor when it came out and I really loved it. I hope you enjoy it too!

[@MollieReads]

SO glad to hear it!!

[@katef32]

I'm in Charlotte! I love North Carolina

[@MollieReads]

YAY! My hubby's parents are in Charlotte ;) so cool!

[@paulaakaazelialopes6694]

I had a much beloved cat just like that, a Blue Russian with a white spot, that loved to fetch a little sponge ball. Now I have a Blue Russian female that was rescued from the streets and the vet clipped the tip of her ear so that the people at the shelter knew that she was already spayed. Your cat also seems to have his ear clipped, does he?

[@leahk9943]

We’re suppose to get 5-9 inches here in Indiana tonight! I guess that will get me in the mood for Christmas. 😜🤷‍♀️

[@MollieReads]

Oh my goodness! I'm soooo jealous! Side note, my dad is from Indiana, and all the people I know from there are obsessed with living there lol. Seems like a great place to be!

[@leahk9943]

Mollie Reads oh cool! Which part is he from? I am near Fort Wayne, probably about 1.5 hours from Indy. I just finished reading Turtles All the Way Down. John Green is from Indy and actually still lives there. He references Indy a lot in his books, especially in Turtles. It’s so fun to recognize stuff from home in a book by an author you admire and love!

[@MollieReads]

Oh I love that! Yeah, my dad is from Indy-I had no idea John Green lived that! That's awesome! Did you like Turtles All the Way Down?!

[@leahk9943]

Mollie Reads yes! I love all things John Green (with the exception to An Abundance of Katherines but I think I may give it another try.) If you’ve never watched John and Hanks videos you should check out the Vlogbrothers they’re amazing. More specifically the video called Because We’re Here it’s one of my absolute favorites!! Also he replied to my comment the other day and I nearly died.

[@mgarcia1s]

Where did you get your Tv/Book shelf Stand from?

[@MollieReads]

Hey Marilyn! My husband actually made it (swoon!).

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

Changes of plans suck :( REMUS IS SO CUTE
