READING VLOG! 3 NEW Thriller Books 🔪🤯

[@brittneyreads]

Thank you for sharing! So many of us suffer from these chronic, invisible illnesses and it’s always nice to know that there are other people out there with the same life experience. It’s a great life hack to read thrillers through brain fog 👏🏼

[@jennainman7657]

Yes!! I agree! It’s a lonely place sometimes.

[@brittany2369]

Thank you for being vocal about your auto immune disease. It definitely helps me feel not alone. This year my brain fog has been so bad I haven’t been able to read at all.

[@Devi15]

Appreciate you being open about the struggle with your chronic illness. Soft hugs Riley🫂 Chronic illness sucks😔

[@dorianneguerin]

i found In My Dreams I Hold a Knife at the thrift store this week and I can't wait to read it!!

[@wiktoriabadora1243]

thank you for opening up Riley! I'm so sorry that you have to be in pain so often 💔 those invisible illnesses really suck

[@monikaliane]

I think u would love The One even more bc it’s kinda a romantic thriller and very black mirror again.

[@BooksBeforeDeath]

"This is just an update to say I have... no thoughts" i RELATE. Also relate to the brain fog, it can be So hard to fight through. I mostly want to compliment your editing, though. This must of been a pain in the ass to put together and you did a fantastic job of making it as seamless as possible, seriously impressed.

[@johnsaxongitno4life588]

All I can say is that you are in my thoughts and prayers and your a amazing young woman and I really love your honesty and your vlogs please stay safe and enjoy your reading 📖 love your Australia fan John xxx

As someone who sufferers from depression, I know how hard it can be to get out of bed and lead a somewhat normal day. Reading has always been a huge comfort to me on those days when I can’t get out of bed or be aware of anything going on in my life. I get depression brain fog and I can’t always remember exactly what I’ve been reading, but I still remember the comfort that whatever book I was reading gave me in that moment. Hope you’re doing better today! One day at a time; things will get better because they have to get better.

Great to see you back in another vlog, thank you for being honest and open about your illness, I have suffered from the same sort of thing for a number of years and it is great to see people finally talking more open about this invisible illness that for the large part goes unrecognised by others as the person who has it “looks fine”. I suffer from what they call fibro fog and my goodness when that is bad it is bad. I have had fibromyalgia now for as long as I can remember and can safely say I wouldn’t even wish this on my worst enemy as it is down right awful. I hope you are feeling better than you were now x

[@venereveritas]

I also struggle with chronic illness and brain fog. It's a pain because there's so many books I want to read. Maybe I'll try reading thrillers the next time I feel crappy. Wishing you good days ahead.

[@erilyda]

My Lovely Wife by Samantha Downing is one of my favorite thrillers!

[@thefrizz13]

Your glasses are adorable 🥰 As a fellow chronically ill person I totally get how frustrating it is to be in pain when you had a plan to do something, shoutout to audiobooks and text-to-speech for when my eyes hurt too much to read actual words 😅

[@thefrizz13]

and brain fog!!! is the worst!!!

[@GriffReads]

Definitely agree with what you said about how The Passengers would make a great Black Mirror episode! I thought the same when I read it

[@laurakuhlmann1626]

I loved The One, and thank you for recommending The Passengers, I definitely think the author is a competent thriller writer

[@mockingjayreads414]

I really actually enjoyed this format with you popping in from the future! As everyone has said, I appreciate the honesty and it's nice to see another side to you so if it helps, this format totally works!

[@jennainman7657]

I love your fall vlogs!!!! The aesthetics!!! ❤️❤️. Thank you for talking about your chronic illness. I too have chronic illness and it helps not to feel alone or odd for being young and sick. Sending you love 🥰

[@annawilson2406]

I’m so down for part 3!!!

[@allison7723]

This was a great vlog! I also get brain fog so I sympathize with how you were feeling but I’m glad you found some thrillers you enjoyed!

[@christinacampbellbooks]

Definitely want to read The Passengers. I love that premise. I really enjoyed What Lies Between Us by him. I'd recommend it! ☺

[@readem_blog]

i also just binged season 3 of You and wow. i agree i think it's my favorite season yet

[@juliafratzke4896]

This vlog was great!! Keep doing what you're doing!

[@KatieReads]

I may be at work buttttt.... you best believe I am watching this on my lunch break!

[@lindsayjardine3376]

Loved this vlog I have not read any Samantha downing but I have heard she is really good x

[@booksandlifewithlaura2143]

I finished For your own good yesterday and I really enjoyed the book. Now I also want to read more books by Samantha Downing.

[@MandaLynReads]

oooh i would love a part two!

[@melissabrown3976]

Ok, I'm intrigued! The Passengers sounds so good!

[@erynreagan7747]

Girl I deal with brain fog lol it sucks and interferes whenever I'm trying to read and write and do simple tasks or doing a video. It's hard!

[@Wolfhailstorm]

I'm happy you wanted to share because it shows the reality of chronic illness, but just know that you don't need to prove it to anyone, if that ever crossed your mind (as I know some people are horrible online about it) As for the video, I loved your walk through it all and the content was great!

[@RileyMarie_]

💜💜

[@KristinKravesBooks]

I thought this vlog was great!! I am so excited for you to read The One. It's one of my favourite thrillers. I really need to read The Passengers!

[@OnlyIfForAPage]

The Passengers seems really interesting :- ) Thank you for sharing about your experience, as someone who also deals with chronic stuff, I always appreciate when people do that 💛

[@OneDisgrace]

I'd be interested to see if they make the passengers a mini series. They made the one a series on Netflix but I reaaaaaally thought it was not good. They changed quite a bit.

[@jampsonn1826]

Ready rock paper scissors now and I'm 67% in with no revelations yet... Not sure I'm ready for the multiple twists! Lol

[@lynnreed4917]

I just bought The Passenger by John Marrs and now I’m even more excited for it!! I’ll probably read The One first though!

[@bridgetthomas4681]

Thanks so much for sharing!

[@heathersmith3986]

Now I really want to know what plot twist you came up with for Rock Paper Scissors!!

[@traceymcmillen695]

I am just starting For Your Own Good now. I've heard good things about it!

[@traceymcmillen695]

I also live wine an invisible illness and can relate. Thanks for your candor and willingness to share. ❤

[@addictedtofictionx]

I love you to the moon and back angel!

[@Luna-po5ui]

I just finished Rock Paper Scissors yesterday and found it disappointing and now i'm DYINGGG to know what your better, imagined plot twist was! Please share if you're willing!

[@hannahrollison8731]

I just finished rock paper scissors and that ending made me so confused lol! But it was a decent thriller imo. ❤❤

[@BohoBookworm]

You definitely enjoyed For Your Own Good more than me!! I didn't even think to compare it to You!! But I definitely do see your comparison! Teddy was just pure evil!!!

[@InLoveAndWords]

I'm so sorry you had a rough time filming. ❤

[@InLoveAndWords]

OMG you laying down with an eye mask listening to an audiobook because of the pain is so relatable. Im sure it was hard to film while you were feeling crappy, but I appreciate seeing that side of what it's like to be a reader/booktuber when you have a chronic illness.

[@RileyMarie_]

@In Love & Words Thanks Bree!! ♥♥

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

For your own good sounds terrifying because it’s so realistic 😩

[@jessicagolden1631]

Will we be getting and horror vlogs? 👀 love your content and thank you for being vulnerable ❤️

[@RileyMarie_]

yes i will have a horror vlog out next week!

[@MeSimoneI]

❤

[@monicamerle1417]

Riley, "In my dreams I hold the knife" has like 50 over the top twists completely unbelievable and I hated it, as much as I also hated "rock paper scissors", so...you've warned. I know I'm in the minority when comes to thrillers. I usually end up loving those underrated instead of the overhyped ones 🙄

[@bethanyu4911]

1) I love your channel and content. 2) I appreciate you sharing your real life struggles and I hope you are feeling better. 3) I recently read In My Dream I Hold A Knife and I think you will like it too, excited to hear your thoughts.

[@listenwithprecious]

That’s one of the reason I love ❤️ audiobooks! Migraine friendly 🤗
