the books i read in june! 🌴🌊✨[cc]

[@andreavelez4968]

Noelle, really like this new angle, the lighting, and the microphone being on the shot. Gives late-night show vibes 🤭🖤

[@nabeelah5212]

Ikr!! I was thinking the same thing~

[@romalibra_books]

Omg yes the angle is so pretty ! The colors, the vibe, such a good change ! (not that it was bad before, but this is next level)

[@blackcatfats]

she looks stunning

[@zoepozios1689]

Not Noel putting an ad right before showing the Lizzie and Dante cover LOL

[@haleymorgan2345]

it was cruel 😭

[@isabellalluncor7569]

The background is different but looks reaaaaally cool 🤩🤩

[@ayahramy]

Yess really beautiful

[@lavless8984]

I think the camera is a little more zoomed out than usual, which is amazing still but I want to get up close and personal and have better visual of her beautiful eyessssss 🥺✨🖤

[@toreedonnelly2932]

I agree! Love this background

[@Melinda_LL]

Same! I thought she had a new shelf for a minute. lol Then I realized it was the lighting and camera angle! It's crazy how much a difference that can make.

[@AndreaMujicaArq]

Mine was “The 7 Husbands of Evelyn Hugo” and I’ve been eyeing it foreveer and I was queued number 14 at the library. After waiting around 2 months, I found it in a telephone booth at Cardiff. 🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@marijakuncic]

That book is golden!

[@VikkiPrints]

I need to take a trip to Cardiff 😂☺️👌 it’s on my TBR for sure!

[@kyestrella]

what a cool coincidence!

[@cecicastro7699]

such an excellent book omg

[@joylynn0620]

I read that in June too. I really enjoyed it. Evelyn Hugo was wonderfully complex and unapologetic.

[@literaryrealm]

i don’t measure time in hours minutes or seconds, i measure it in noelle’s wrap ups

[@nuclearwinter6231]

Same, my alarm wakes me up for work at Noelle o’clock, dinner at noelle and then bed at Noelle:noelle

[@mellabopa]

I read The House in the Cerulean Sea. I’ve been seeing a lot of people recommending it and also the cover is just beautiful. I read it during my week off from work and it I’m so glad I did because the whole week I was in such a good mood!!! I was smiling, teared up in some parts and of course the ending!!! Now I’m looking forward to his upcoming book in September.

[@haleymorgan2345]

yes!! that was my favorite book of june too, its such an emotional comfort book

[@kylaoregan6178]

My favourite of the year so far!! I’m glad you liked it too 🤗🤗

[@rosievizulis5627]

I really wanna read this book so thank you for the review 💗

[@infiniteSign]

I also read this in June! Really loved it. I thought it showed such positive ways to communicate with others.

[@tgalv23]

Exact same for me!! I agree, it just set the tone for a happy month, appreciating the small things and relationships in my life 🥰

[@sassycatz4470]

Speaking of romance, Mary Bly, who wrote the book Lizzie & Dante, *is* a Professor of Shakespeare, just like her character. She's the daughter of the poet Robert Bly and short story writer, Carol Bly. But most interesting is that Bly also writes historical romances under the name Eloisa James. She's written around 30 romances and used to hide the fact that she did so from her co-workers until she decided that that sounded like she was ashamed of it. So, she finally let everyone know and has attended book conferences and written articles about the stigma against romance novels and authors.

[@loverofstars37]

The handmaids tale was by far the best book I read in june, someone recommended it to me recently and i loved it!!

[@pinkopat]

You've completely sold me on Seven Days In June, I can't wait to get my hands on it!!

[@biancaburgess]

Ok the QUALITY of this video ....I meannnn 😍

The quality, the background, the eye makeup, the earings, THE BEAUTY

[@koritsi2142]

[@Mothchewedgirl]

The best book I read in June was song of Achilles and I’ve had my eye on it for a long time.

[@Pman2528]

I just finished it literally an hour ago… I literally can’t get over it 😭😭

[@Mothchewedgirl]

@@Pman2528 same! I read it like 2 weeks ago and I’m still sad, I was crying for like 4 days 😭

[@Ellewolf20]

The best book I read in June was Pachinko! I finally got the courage to read it after you recommended it on your channel. It looked very intimidating because of its size, but I only finished it in a few of days because it was so good🖤

[@MrKuronChan]

I'm totally digging this proffesional host vibe! 🤩

[@stephaniekasandra6439]

I read Celeste Ng's Everything I Never Told You and it was a random buy but oh wow, it was amazing and had me reeled in

Malibu Rising was such a pleasure to read and was really looking forward to it being released. Im also now in the mood to read books with a beachy/summery vibe.

[@janet8908]

my fave book from June was Malibu Rising, which i waited a YEAR for 😭 and i loved it soo much

[@sof_coelho]

I have finally read The Song of Achilles! I was thinking of reading it for the longest time and then it was your bookclub’s pick for June and I got super excited and read it and loved it and I can’t wait for your Greek mythology books!!! 🥰

[@chloelee4775]

7 husbands of Evelyn Hugo, it was a a book I’d wanted to read for a while I’ve only really just started to get back into reading in the last month or so. I’ve also only recently discovered your channel and I’m in love

[@haleymegs]

my favorite book this month was the fountains of silence by ruta sepetys! It was on my radar for a little bit because I had just read one of her other books which has become an all time favorite. definitely recommend it if you want a good historical fiction

[@ohohnenyeoo2654]

Read it back in 2019. One of my favs from that year 💕 glad you loved it. Rita Sepetys is such a talented writer.

Malibu Rising was my top read for the month. I loved it so much. I also feel you on wanting the beach summer reads afterwards!

[@umyeahashleigh]

Just wanted to say I really appreciate you doing closed captions and also adding it so it's clear in the title; makes watching videos so much easier for me (and many other people, I'm sure!)

[@guppy8073]

My favorite June read was Pachinko!! I finally got around to it because I’m going to Amherst College where Lee is a Writer in Residence

Noelle I just wanna say thank you, I watch you when I’m editing photos for my work and with you I don’t get bored, and I get bored with youtubers easily so thank you!

[@graceboudreault623]

Always so excited for the month wrap ups!!! Only got to read one book this month, The Dead Zone, rrggg King did it again with making the first half so fast and engaging and then draged on and on the second half. Currently reading The Maidens, I have high hopes because I absolutely loved The silent patiant.

[@kyleighh1979]

Love the eye makeup. 🔥🔥🔥 Fav book of June: People you meet on vacation (wasn’t on TBR) and I found The Maidens entertaining and an easy read.

[@atmreads]

Best book of June for me was 'Fellowship of the Ring' by Tolkien. I've been wanting to read LotR for a while, and I finally got around to starting (still have Two Towers and Return of the King left)

[@itszoway22]

Hell yes to your beginning question! I had been putting off Addie Larue for some time and I finally read it this June and it was such a great read! Really enjoyed it! So glad I finally got around to it. Hope you’re doing well Noelle! Sending you lots of love and a great July reading month!

[@s.ophiejohn]

honey girl was my best june read, and it’s been on my radar since your review! read in 2 days and morgan rogers is so talented

[@daniellemnvlogs]

I agree, that cover is beautiful. The font and its scale 😍

[@ShannonLeeHello]

My most enjoyable read in June is The Inheritance Games! Also if you loveeee TJR's work I would highly recommend "After I Do". It's the best book I have read this year!

[@AdyGrafovna]

I read 4 of the same books as you did and loved them. Seven Days in June was an amazing romance. Detransition, Baby should really be talked about more. I liked it so much! People You Meet on Vacation was a fantastic, light, beach read. And Malibu Rising was pretty good too. My favorite book that I read this month was The Other Black Girl. I see that most people seem to be giving it between 3 and 4 stars, but I absolutely loved it. Weird books in office settings with a satirical edge seem to be something I love.

[@sxmmievaz]

mine was "The Song Of Achilles" I have just started to get back into reading and I'm so glad this was my start up book cuz it's SO GOOD

[@salma00092]

i also read the song of achilles in june and i loved it! i would literally sell my soul to read it again for the first time.

[@lindsaymorris1718]

Do you know when the book club meeting is for this book?

[@stephaniecurtiss6804]

Seven Days in June is going on my tbr IMMEDIATELY. It sounds like something I would love. Also, my favorite read of June was Severance by Ling Ma! Hearing you talk about it in previous videos finally gave me the push I needed to read it, and I loved it.

[@rayneg6292]

i only read three this month but because of pride, i put felix ever after on my tbr and finally got around to it and omg..... it was so amazing. it is now one of my favorite books. something about it was so comforting and it is so nice to read queer books with happy endings. i could cry thinking about it... it felt like a warm hug. i'm so glad you loved it too, i was really excited to hear your thoughts!!

[@anastasia-ramirez]

The Hating Game! The banter was awesome and I’ve literally been told to read so much on Tiktok/KZbin!

[@surenderbeniwal8578]

17:56 u described it the best! I'm always looking for such deep romance stories. U articulated it so aptly- i mean u just put what I've been feeling lately, into words.

[@lilliandelphi3218]

Oh my word, I saw you talk about "Under the Udala Trees" in your June tbr and it sounded so so fascinating! I haven't been sure whether I should get it or not, but hearing you say how much you liked it and how good it was now has convinced me 100% to read it asap! So thank you for the recommendation! And congrats on, once again, a lovely video. ❤❤❤

[@ArielBissett]

♥️

[@jalisse6438]

“The Invisible Life of Addie Larue” was the best book I read in June/probably one of the best books I’ve ever read. It was on my TBR for awhile. So glad I finally got around to it. 😍

[@littlebluebirdbooks]

The second the video comes on, I immediately notice the background and how clear the lens is! Looks so, so nice!

[@rayannesousads]

(you and your scenario for this video look SO GOOD) my favorite book this month was definitely Malibu Rising. I'm a big TJR fan and I couldn't wait for this new story. just like you said - I loved it just like Evelyn Hugo (and Daisy Jones & the six) but in a different way. I feel like she wrote it and created Nina just for me. big sister rights!!! 💛 sending love, mama petunia! hope you're doing well.

[@OlenskasBibliotek]

I love Felix Ever After! And I adore your description of short stories 🤗

[@literallyricky]

I read and LOVED The Sweetness of Water in June! I really liked how this video looked! Whatever you're doing different, keep it up! Thanks for sharing all your thoughts on these books. They all look so interesting and I may have found some things to add to my TBR (as if I needed any more lol). Thanks for always being such a ray of sunshine! You looked great in this video! Sending you love and well wishes for July!

Favorite book that I read this month was Six of Crows! I have heard so many amazing things about this hook but didn’t think it would live up to the hype. However, it FAR exceeded any expectations that I had. Gave it 5 stars!

[@traceyanderson7489]

So many of your June books have been on my radar. It’s made me really excited to read them.

[@ashleygeis4469]

Malibu Rising was definitely my favorite read!! I preordered it months ago since i adore TJR’s books. I loved Nina’s character, and really enjoyed both timelines. Seven Husbands is still my favorite but Malibu Rising is my second favorite by her!

[@harrietsbookcorner]

This video just felt so comforting and personal, the background and the lighting, all of it. Beautiful! Also that edition of Detransition, Baby is stunning!

I had 2 favorites this month one I had my eye on forever and that was Daisy Jones and the Six. The second one I loved was Love in Color (A short story collection!!) This one was unexpected. Although I had it on hold at the library for a while, I kind of forgot about it. And I also wasn't really in the mood when I picked it up, but I was so glad I did!! SO GOOD! The drama in Malibu Rising was REAL! I kept waiting for the Evil Twin to pop out, it was almost like a soap opera but I LOVED IT! She is such a great writer.

[@dalishrogue3621]

Noelle, you are looking radiant as always! Really like this shot. I've been meaning to read Sabrina and Corina for forever lmao! I used to have a friend named Sabrina (we grew apart when she went to a different part of the state). Corina is a super rare spelling (in my experience) and the thought of having a book that uses my name is exciting and one hell of a coinky-dink.

[@pagesandprose1736]

If you want a pretty lighthearted short story collection, Love Beyond Body, Space, and Time was soooo great! It's SFF, and I absolutely loved it! I think the best book I read in June was Split Tooth, which had been on my radar for a while...I was waiting for my library hold to come through!

[@kgbhastings]

Made my week to see your video!! This month I read Fountains of Silence. I really liked it. In the US it YA, but in Europe it is adult. My friend from Madrid asked me to read it! Glad I did!
