I read Kingdom of Exiles by Maxym M Marrineau and really liked it! It's about a "beast charmer" which is like a magic Pokémon trainer and a group of shadow magic assassins. There were 1.5 spicy scenes near the end but overall low spice. I think she's a good author and has some YA. Has your friend read her, and is that the friend that "made you read it" from the channel name? Yes! the audio is much much better! Also Alfred Hitchcock did make the movies but The Birds was originally written by Daphne du Maurier and Strangers on a Train was originally written by Patricia Cornwall

@@zachreads oh my gosh that’s why I kept getting confused because I was like “I think he did the movies but I don’t think he was the original creator?” And I was so confused 🤭 Thank you for correcting me!! Also yes, I bought a microphone 5 years ago when I did a lot of photography and cinematography and totally forgot and I found it cleaning one day and was like “oh my gosh, I didn’t even remember I have this very nice mic, why am I using the cheap one the camera came with???” I’ll ask my friend if she’s read that author before!! It sounds like a good book though, I loved reading the Pokémon manga as a kid and I don’t know if you read the book The Magicians (they turned it into a TV show) but that was such a good book as well and the one you’re describing very loosely reminds me of it (really just the magic assassins lol) The channel name actually came from the fact that for like a year I was just reading books random people suggested I read when they found out I like to read and then I would recommend the book to someone else and I just kept saying “a friend of mine had me read this” and I turned it into a funny name 🤭
