Regan’s “reading” vlogs are definitely reading/anime/cooking/fashion vlogs 😂

[@marlaarguelles4824]

I feel like this video will be better than caffeine to get me going today.

[@Morfeusm]

Best accidentally poop joke ever 😅

[@malloreygarrett892]

omg girl if you want a killer romance anime TORADORA is for you! Get Clay to watch it with you because my husband also loved it. Only 26 episodes. SO GOOD.

[@jillypepper_]

This might be out of your usual comfort zone, but I'd love to see you compare the Kindle to the Nook! Even if you just slip it into a reading vlog, I'm just really interested on your thoughts! I trust your opinions, as an avid reader, over the techy videos that exist out there! :)

[@ninislibrary]

I've been loving all of these Naruto updates in the reading vlogs and I absolutely agree with you about Sasuke and Sakura. It just doesn't make any sense!! Some more recent anime recommendations would be Orange (shoujo, sci-fi, school life), Blue Spring Ride (shoujo), Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun (shoujo, comedy), Haikyuu! (sports, comedy), and Yona of the Dawn (shoujo, historical fantasy, action).

[@anarabarbosa]

I LOVE the Naruto updates!!! Would love to see more discussions on it hahahah I always thought Sasuke wanted Naruto way more than he ever wanted Sakura. I'm Sasunaru shipper all the way. Sasuke is in love with Naruto and never was able to get over it

[@ninislibrary]

@@anarabarbosa Right?? Naruto is so nostalgic for me. Omg yes, I completely agree. How are we supposed to believe the canon shipping when those two were so passionate and obsessed about each other. It does not add up.

[@becki8000]

The balance you achieve between full time work and reading is INSPIRING. + Matilda (17:58) and Clay, yes, I'm here for it.

[@emburklin]

my bf & I were eating ramen & he said "comment on a video of that girl who watches Naruto and tell her we're eating ramen because Naruto eats ramen" lollll

[@haleyrose1709]

I love how you show how you implement self care! Your hair masks, face masks, and treats are lovely to see! ❤️

[@fileanavailable]

Idk why but your vlogs are so calming?! Whatever it works and I’m not questioning it 😎 yesss I’m so excited to read The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires, The City We Became and Sex and Vanity - just got them for my bday and I can’t wait!!!

[@TiliaHaggstrom]

Speaking of anticipated realises, I would love to hear your spoilery thoughts on stormlight 4 in a spoiler filled reading vlog when that comes out! I get that you probably get less views on a spoilery vlog but it would be so cool getting your unfiltered reactions on a sanderson book :)

[@whalesbooks9986]

So I’ve been swamped lately with homework and studying and such, but I always make myself take a break and watch your videos while I eat dinner, and it’s so nice! Thank you for your awesome vids haha

[@rachelelizabeth4830]

Random but you should totally start a podcast! You’re such a genuine and sweet person and I’d love to see what you’d come up with for one 🥰

[@Sarahla91]

I second this! I would love if she made a podcast

[@anarabarbosa]

I would listen to Regan all day every day, specially if it was a podcast commenting Naruto and other animes

[@lifeofsara]

you should definitely watch Fairy Tail!!!! its another quite long anime like naruto, and its just as fantastic and emotional and if you love naruto you're gonna love fairy tail too!

[@xoHAUTEGLiTTERS]

I just got my new kindle for Christmas and I’ve been reading SO much since I got it, so convenient and I love being able to use Libby on it and not have to go to the library or worry about returning on time!

[@shalanedupreez4916]

Your vlogs are always great! You are so fun and chilled, it just feels like we are sitting around with you chatting about books 💐

[@Toryhyde]

Always watch your vlogs, love them, never commented before, but felt compelled to let you know... your skin is looking AMAZING! Random i know, but I kept thinking it to myself all the way through 😆

[@cknopick491]

Your vlogs are so calming and pleasant to watch. Also the Fruits Basket reboot is phenomenal it's everything I've wanted since I read the manga when I was 13 :)

[@cjanney3592]

Yes!!!! I first read them in high school over 10 years ago and it has been such a wonderful experience to watch it come to life as an anime and rediscover my love for it. Such a great series!!! 😭😄

[@Amyduckie]

Yes! I just started Empire of Gold but for awhile was focused on getting something else finished. Can’t wait to get stuck in. And after finally watching Hamilton, after listening to you rave about it for ages, that’s what I listen to when I’m reading.

[@hellohaley45]

The Daevabad trilogy is my favorite series of all time! I’ve been reading them ever since the first one came out and re-reading as I’ve waited for the next one 😂 I read Empire of Gold last week and absolutely died. It was perfection. Seeing this series being hyped on booktube makes me so happy and I can’t wait to hear the rest of your thoughts once you’ve finished! 🥰

[@sarahbookworm5937]

A 45 minute reading vlog from Regan? YEEESSSSS! And Milly's new light pink leash and harness are soooo cute! And I totally relate to the "I'm an emotional mess" and fangirl parts of this vlog! So relatable and genuine! Thank you Regan for making my day a little brighter!

[@cassidy_reads]

Naruto was the first anime I ever watched, over 15 years ago. It is still my favorite and when the final manga issue released, I actually cried while reading it because it means so much to me. I’m so happy to hear that you love it too!

[@Magicme79]

I’ve lost track of my youtubers, so I just finished catching up with your last three videos. And then WHADDAYA KNOW, another video :D

[@rachaelhall9009]

I’m so excited for this because I just finished that book last night so I’m settling in for this video like no other!

[@EpicReads]

Wow this was the BIGGEST mood. Thank you for making us laugh!😄

[@CharI0tte]

OMG, I literally have the empire of gold lying next to me to start reading it after I watched this video. I'm super excited!!

[@bookswithkatie7364]

I'm going to use that reading music playlist all the time now lol thank you for mentioning it! :)

[@reading_with_k]

I can't WAIT to read Empire of Gold! My most anticipated of the year for sure. But I'm also definitely going to need to read a summary of the second book before.

[@lotusfarmer]

I just finished the Daevabad trilogy and now I can finally watch your vlog! That series was absolutely glorious and I still can't get over how beautiful and wonderful it was!

[@halimamuslimah]

I have read so much more since having my Kindle. I love it dearly!

[@gabid8298]

I miss Naruto, you talking about the anime ... make me feel so nostalgic. People are talking about Haiykuu in the comments, excelent recommendation, it's a very addictive and well done anime. Shoujo: Kaguya- sama, orange.

[@rudig5698]

„I’m an emotional mess.” me too haha

[@PeruseProject]

its a constant state at this point

[@therainofliam]

Can't believe I'm one of the first 10 viewers! So excited! Love you, Regan!

[@jankeprins9668]

I'm SO excited for Empire of Gold!! Currently on a Mistborn reread but EoG is going to be next so this vlog is great for building up the anticipation even more :D

[@mirandaseyler3063]

You've blessed us with another reading vlog! How did we all get so lucky?! 🙌

[@sarageudens6098]

I'm now obsessed with legend of korra , and your vlogs are amazing 🥰👌

[@legendaryreader39]

Yay! Another reading vlog. I just love your content

[@VivienReis]

Me: *puts headphones in* omg was that my stomach?? Matilda: *snores again* Well played Matilda, well played.

[@aamandavlogs]

Omg SAME

[@alexcalder2224]

These long vlogs have been awesome since there is not much to do right now. Keep them coming!

[@Christine-fu7uv]

Love my new e-reader too! Just got it as well and it’s a game changer for me!

[@ashleynover5036]

I always get so inspired to read more when I watch your videos! Where is your weighted blanket from?

[@stephensinclair3771]

Reading the handmaid's tale. Brilliant 👏

[@natalieramones]

I finished The Empire of Gold and it killed me! I love Ali and Nahri so much and I miss them already!! Such a fantastic series :D

[@nathanmcgarry1482]

I'm so excited for this

[@TheDailyMundane]

Your hair is looking so good!!!

[@mjrs2514]

I know I say this every single reading vlog BUT after your videos I'm like suuuuper motivated to read more!

[@emmaschroer2733]

Empire of Gold wrecked me! So excited for this vlog

[@PeruseProject]

Thursday night agenda= Regan's reading vlog🥰🥰🥰🥰. I feel do relaxed

[@maddisonbryant1268]

Yaass the Daevabad series is one of my all time favourites! I can’t wait to here your thoughts once you’ve finished 👏💕 Anime suggestions: My hero academia (for you and Clay), reverse harem: kiss him, not me! Ouran high school host club Shojo: Ancient Magnus bride, maid sama,

[@shaylasingh2979]

Just realized that your outfit was matching the Poppy war while you were reviewing it. 😍😍

[@courtneyposey924]

My weekend plans are to finish Home Before Dark by Riley Sager and continue watching Bleach. I love your vlogs and can't wait to the next one. I get most of my fantasy recs from you!

[@XMarciMonsterKittyXx]

Oh my gosh . This is how it feels to be early.

[@priyankathadani1054]

The Perfect Insider, Erased, and Your Name are some anime that you would definitely enjoy.

[@hindygreenwood8115]

Doesn't matter that I'm working, there's another vlog to watch!

[@adrikamondal5186]

I am looking forward to read Poppy War...but the length intimidates me!! You are my daily inspiration! And your vlogs rocks. Tons of love from India😘

[@danielledinh9032]

It reads really fast with lots of action

[@juhmoroli705]

What I do is separate the book in smaller (like 10/15 pages) parts, and focus on them. And, if you can, reading with the audiobook helps read a little faster.

[@adrikamondal5186]

@@danielledinh9032 Thank you tremendously! I can understand it is lot action packed like HP and Order of Phoenix.

[@adrikamondal5186]

@@juhmoroli705 So sweet of you to help me out😘 I will read it according to your method. I guess it will help me. Thank you so much, dear!

[@janessarathgeber4943]

Fruits Basket ❤ Can't wait for the new episodes ☺️

[@JessTorries0722]

I really enjoy listening to ambient sound mixer while I read. I listen to the studying at hogwarts background noise. Or sometimes I listen to a thunderstorm on the hogwarts express. It’s really cool!

[@bookoffholicbookwart5945]

Poppy war...yeah, I remember your reaction in story regan😂👌👌iconic

[@simplyellenxo95]

Super obsessed with your reading vlogs. You should do more reading vlogs.I’ve watched fruits basket before and super good. I’m actually eating hot Cheetos puffs too.

[@sunnykim625]

Hi Regan!!!!! I love your reading vlogs hehe 🥰 could you do a full video about your new ereader and ereading in general? I’ve been thinking of buying my first ereader for a while now and would love to hear your thoughts about ereaders 😁😁

[@denisediamond9313]

I just upgraded my eReader to the same one you have and absolutely love it! Did you know you can add the page numbers or the minutes left in book in your settings? I usually set it to see how much is left in chapter.

[@valeriaandrea28]

I relate to Clay so hard, working during the weekends 😂

[@iphisnextdoor]

I have the same leash for my pup! The aesthetic is strong, the ad was strong

[@CrankingMyReading]

I totally agree about your opinion on fight scenes in naruto. I like the power-ups, but I really enjoyed the good ol’ hand to hand fights that made it more rough and raw. My little monster is a great, short shoujo anime. For something newer, I totally recommend My Next Life as a Villainess.

[@tanjagardner285]

I'm currently reading Kingdom of Copper, and I'm listening to some of the Buddha's Lounge and similar Arabian music compilation videos. They're a PERFECT background to the Daevabad action ;-)

[@kindlelight]

Shikamaru is my favorite character on Naruto!!!! Also, E-readers do help you to read more books and much faster. No joke. I used to be against them, but I read sooo much more now. Love it. Think due to the fact that you can take multiple books with you anywhere you go.

[@hufflepuff4444]

Mine as well:)

[@allyssamarieexo]

Matilda in her harness!!!! The cutest pup

[@Hazelnootpasta7]

Hahaha yes the fight sequences in Naruto are the best 😂 (if you look closely you also see that the drawing style changes when the episode has an important fight scene in it) never finished the series though 🙈

[@Kisszoe100]

My two favourite animes are Romeo X Juliet (So drama and I love every minute!) and Ancient Magus Bride. If you like Laini Taylors books you'd love Ancient Magus Bride!

[@Vinyltechnician]

I remember the old days where I had seen the entire first season of Naruto on youtube while Toonami was showing the Chuunen exam battles at the same time.

[@danasalinger5247]

lolz at Clay throwing something at you at the beginning of the video and you not even noticing

[@sasspriscilla]

Also, were you referring to the Shikamaru v. Hidan moment? Cause that was AWESOME.

[@RTbookworm]

Empire of Gold DESTROYED me! I honestly didn't know how I wanted the whole thing to end, my heart was so torn

[@allisonwilliamson543]

I feel the same about Naruto, I started watching it when I was younger and then I stopped for some reason. I just now finished watching all the episodes plus shippuden a few years ago. I feel so connected to the characters since I grew up with them. I remember being embarrassed that I watched it because I thought it wasn't for girls even though I loved so much. Now I don't care , it has become one of my comfort shows to watch when I'm feeling down. The characters of the show is the best! I'm so happy that you and Clay are enjoying the series!!

[@snamorsixteen]

I devoured The Daevabad trilogy in 1 week. 5 stars all the way. The whole series tore me up and I gained another OTP😍

[@francinekatelumbao1787]

Where did you get your e-reader from? I have been wanting one for so long, but there is so many to choose from. Btw I love your videos!!!

[@Sophie703]

Where is your weighted blanket from? Can’t wait until the 3rd Poppy War book later this year! 😁

[@mijuamina]

I love the Daevabad Trilogy. I have to reread the first two before I can jump onto Empire of Gold. I also loved your rant on Naruto. Sakura and Sasuke relationship doesn't really make sense either.

[@JakeLover69]

I'm currently reading cardcaptor sakura and it's just so pure- 10/10 reccomend (plus the anime is now on netflix) 👌🏻👌🏻

[@chanellopez3895]

Where are your glasses from?! I love them!

[@jojonaslover19]

I am reading the 7 deaths of evelyn hardcastle and i am loving it!

[@cassidymenard2275]

I was wondering if you might consider adding more spoiler sections to your book vlogs? You just talk with so much animation in that one clip about Naruto, and I’d love that as it relates to the fantasy books you’re reading, even if I have to skip bits from time to time!

[@booksaftercollege6714]

I need a video on anime recommendations! I always just get stuck in the cycle of rewatching my favs (Inuyasha + Tokyo Ghoul)

[@caburg93]

Do you do audiobooks? I like to have both the audio and ebook... I hate to write in physical books, but I have no problem highlighting an ebook ;) I loved The City of Brass... but I forgot to continue on, thank you for reminding me! Waiting for my library copies. And Thai food?? awesome! I haven’t had any since quarantine, hope my favorite Thai place still exists (my local indie bookstore isn’t reopening :(

[@courtneywelch9339]

I LOVEEEE my kindle so much. I can read books so much faster on it vs a physical book. But I’m also someone who HAS to own a physical copy of a book I love 😂 so I made myself only read romances on it because typically I don’t feel a strong urge to own romance like I do fantasy.

[@kaitlyncryderman9449]

You should def watch food wars! for anime. I’m obsessed. Cooking, school trope, hilarious characters 🥰

[@danii_saur]

Not sure if you’ve seen it but it’s always sunny in Philadelphia is such an odd and funny show, I’d definitely recommend it if you’re in the mood for something funny

[@antoniocuevas25]

honestly, can't wait for you to see things happen in boruto

[@oliviaedenmusic]

I’m reading ballad while watching this and it’s great 😂

[@Anesjournal]

Those online summaries are a God send! Sometimes I don't want to re-read the whole series just to remember what happened. I think I need to read one for The kingdom of Copper as I'm finding it hard to get sucked into EoG

[@PeruseProject]

Literally the people who write them are a GIFT - would highly recommend reading one before EOG given the story picks up right after KoC - it helped me 100000%

[@Anesjournal]

@@PeruseProject awesome! also for an anime rec check out chihayafuru if you haven't already seen it. It's set around high school kids who play a traditional Japanese card game competitively, sounds like it would be boring but it's so so good!

[@samanthamarchello7638]

Gundam: Iron Blooded Orphans (seriously, even if you don't love giant robots this one is emotional and has an amazing ensemble cast!)! Hi Score Girl! HAIKYUUUU! Also I have been loving your Naruto Saga to the point where I have been telling my husband where you were each week in the series. Did you ever watch NANA? Shoujo anime is so wonderful.

[@eepschizzin]

Love the naruto content! But yeah totally agree with the Sasuke and Sakura thing. I would be happy with it if there was more from Sasuke. I’m rewatching naruto cos of you and so trying to pick up on anything at all between them and there’s little things here and there, particularly in the Chunin exams..but it’s just not enough to be at all satisfying.

[@ebnovels]

Ah, you have to check out Sheku Kanneh -Mason for beautiful instrumental music! He’s such a precious human AND he plays the most beautiful cello music, oh my gosh 😄😄😄 Also, Joshua Bell’s Romance of the Violin cd is great 💕

[@angelbillgirl1207]

When you talked about the character of Naruto,I just knew who it was 💜 The Sasuke and Sakura thing is complicated to explain,but the author did explain it in interviews. I'm not the biggest Sasuke fan but I'm the biggest Sakura fan. I actually didn't finish to watch the whole Naruto but I watched the ending episodes and read the whole manga,also started Boruto but didn't watch much but I want to

[@jaclynlieto2]

I love Empire of Gold SO VERY MUCH. Ali and Nahri...

[@anautisticreader2963]

My Moms pug, Hobart, is a major tugger (and a runner). I got my mom a leash she clips around her waist, that attaches to him along his back. Game changer! Now she can pick up his poop 💩 while on the walk without risking him running off down the street if she drops the leash.

[@Martusia26]

where did you read the summary of the devabad trilogy - about to start empire of gold as well

[@skylarrsullivan2294]

I agree with what you said about Naruto! I felt the exact same way

[@Stephanie-pt2eu]

Where did that gorgeous weighted blanket come from?

[@baileighreed-grimmett4048]

Glad someone said it lol. The naruto rant for context.

[@angelbillgirl1207]

Also Fruits Basket is my favourite 💜
