[@PeruseProject]

Good luck this semester! We are united in chaos lol

[@echoland2774]

Haha yup, I'm joining in on the uni-working-writing-video chaos ;)

[@Sammyyaam]

+Echoland im also joining

[@readsusiereads]

AWH LADY! I JUST WANT TO GIVE YOU A HUG AFTER HEARING THAT CRAZY SCHEDULE.

[@kevinkelly_]

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is everything to me! Loved it so much!! I hope you do too.

[@Katesbookdate]

Clockwork Prince definitely picks up closer to the end. Hope you enjoy Clockwork Princess when you get to it! LOVE that book

[@Tanvee]

My this month's TBR is only four books (I'm a beginner reader and I want to read one book per week) My TBR is, Things we know by heart by Jessi Kirby, Echo in Time by CJ Hill, Erasing time by CJ Hill and lastly, FANGIRL by Rainbow Rowell. Next month's TBR is HP and the cursed child (it is on its way. I ordered it online) and the other three books in the shatter me series. So that's Unravel me, Ignite me and Unite me. So that's 4 books this month and next month :)

[@BooksAndJams]

The cover of the Silent Things book is beautiful!! Hope you're doing great with this TBR.

[@RM1Sammy]

The Australian covers for the Kingkiller Chronicles are so much better than the American ones omggg

[@DomoniqueEaddy]

omg I just recently read The Edible Woman and loved it. it starts slow at first. you kinda have to feel through the way she processes things first and then the magic begins. but yeah my favorite character is Duncan and i love him dearly. hope you enjoy

[@NovelteaCorner]

Book prices in Australia are terrible (my poor bank account!). Good luck with your schedule! It's taken me a few years to finally get back into a proper reading habit after starting teaching full time, but once you get into a rhythm, it's not too bad. I've knocked off 6 of my August TBR books, including Illuminae which I originally found out about through your videos (so thank you!!!!). I've got Eon, The Magicians and The Knife of Never Letting Go to read next.

[@nicolebrooker8476]

I love your little rant at the! Your videos makes me so happy get excited every time a new one comes out!

[@AwkwardBookworm]

I'm going to read Clockwork Prince this month too!!!

[@anamiranda6022]

Me too!!

[@LaurenEllwood]

I've just gone back to uni too! Busy with my capstone English course and I'm dyyyinggg.

[@booksinked]

My TBR is to read Nevernight when it comes in on Tuesday via Amazon (fingers crossed), Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (I haven't read the series so people tells me that I really need to, so I am :)), My Lady Jane, This Savage Song, and I need to finish up Passenger and Since You've Been Gone (I'm on last few chapters for each book). I hope I can make it. Good Luck on your semester!

[@raesterling]

I'm excited to hear your Cursed Child thoughts! Can't wait

[@MeredithRules]

I adored The Edible Woman! It's Margaret Atwood's first novel written in the sixties (pre-modern feminist movement and sexual revolution) but it still has a pretty resounding impact and relevance to today.

[@Maryam-gn3kz]

Good luck this semester❤️

[@annamendoza9004]

The History of the World in 10 1/2 chapters is on one of my Uni reading lists this semester as well! :)

[@cindypanda6858]

I'm currently reading Throne of Glass and it is sooo good ♡ So I'm looking forward to read the sequels as soon as possible.

[@TheBellaw3]

you're in for a treat! The series get sooo much better after throne of glass, im currently reading Heir of Fire and is amazing!

[@cindypanda6858]

+Bellaw3 😄 Okay, I need to finish it^^ Enjoy your book :*

[@daphneebeaulieu3484]

The other ones are even better (well, Crown of Midnight is, I just started Heir of Fire so I can't say if it's better😋)

[@stephpiano2908]

I feel you so bad on the Australian prices issues - why do they always have to be so high? 😡

[@ohhthatskellie]

Good luck for this upcoming semester!!

[@raykline7904]

The Edible Woman is great! I read it on a vacation, like 8 years ago I think. It is by no means an action packed read, but I finished it in two days.

[@halfpastknitting1628]

Good luck with uni/internship/work! Top of my list for August is Harry Potter as well. Can't wait to read it!

[@isabellecorthay7809]

In Switzerland we pay ~25 francs so it's like 30 australian dollar but most of the time we don't even have hardback it's only paperback 😓

[@DjJooze]

Youre semester is gonna be awesome mom !! 😌

[@RachelLouiseAtkin]

I had to read the Edible Woman for uni too. It's really interesting to think about advertising, the female body and it's presentation and feminism. She's good a symbolic writer so hope you have fun studying it!

[@Francelmo23]

The Edible Woman is amazing!

[@whitneyerin222]

I'm really excited to read Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, White Oleander (so far it's amazing), The Nightengale, and the last two books in The Lunar Chronicles series, Fairest and Stars Above

[@ChellaHyuga]

I'm be going back to uni to and I'm so not ready. I want to try and read both Harry Potter and the Cursed Child and Lady Midnight so we'll see how that goes

[@brendan1742]

I finished Cursed Child in one sitting and it was SO GOOD!!!

[@YasmineArt]

Harry Potter and The Cursed Child ! It melted my heart !!!! made me all nostalgic and emotional ! ahhh I hope you will enjoy it , I know some critisized it for being different from the previous books since this is made as a play but it really got to me and if you're a Harry potter fan as much as I am, you will get what I'm telling you when you'll read it, I advice you to keep reading it, you'll finish it in no time

[@dudette7681]

i actually don't understand people who critisized it for being different, because J.K.Rowling was very clear since the beginning. We all knew that it was gonna be different. but i feel like some don't wanna understand that it's not the 8th book, it's not a novel, it's the 8th story written as a play. anyway i'm really happy to hear you enjoyed it, i can't wait to get my copy and read it. i'm soooo exiiiiteeed, and i'm pretty sure i'm gonna love it.

[@YasmineArt]

Exactly ! unfortunately, the copies are not available in our bookstores yet so a very awesome person uploaded a pdf file of it and I freaked out ! especially with Harry Potter I will NOT complain ! But I still want to have the book in my hands to complete my collection *-*, anyway I promise you you won't regret it, even if you haven't read Harry Potter in years, it will bring you back to that first time that you read it and to the same feelings you had while reading it, with all the characters that we grew to love, ahhh, I stop here don't want to spoil anything for you, I made a review about it on Goodreads because, it was impossible for me not to say anything about it (and I tried to make a video but I'm still not confortable with the camera xD), especially after reading people's reaction which got me confused. All I can say is, you will see Jk Rowling in every page of the book, have a very good read :)

[@ophylias2107]

I'm reading Aurora Leigh, and plan on getting to Giant Days vol 2, The Lowland, and Not if I See You First this month. I thought Aurora Leigh was just gonna be a collection of poetry, kind of like Ariel, but instead it's more like a story written in verse~ So I'll read the other books in between sections of Aurora Leigh, and hopefully get done that way~

[@bloomingflowerfae]

Good luck with this semester. I know I have a lot of books to read this semester. At least I know I'm the only one that didn't finish books last month.

[@drewgover5289]

I'm currently working on Ten Thousand Skies Above You and Lady Midnight. Dunno if I'll actually be able to get through either of them before uni starts up again, but I'm gonna try!

[@olivia1910]

I just finished The Cursed Child today and I surpringly enjoyed it ! I was kind of scared to dive into it but if you don't consider it as the "official 8th book of the HP series" (because I personally found the ending perfect), it's a fun little adventure. Some things were a bit weird but it's HP so I was able to look past them haha. I just don't like the fact that it's a play because I think it's unfair for the HP fans all over the world who won't be able to see it but oh well, that's how it is

[@harshishah5205]

the sneeze attack was at 4:37 maybe? Anyway, i am currently reading The Cursed child. And it's well. I am so happy I get to go into the world once again but well, it disappointed me a bit. Please let us know what you think about the book.

[@bookaholic1224]

I recently finished the Infernal devices trilogy by Cassandra Clare and I loved it! Looking forward to hear your thoughts on the trilogy. I'm participating in a readathon with my book club and I'm reading The tenderness of wolves by Stef Penney.

[@tianicola5489]

I am excited to read cinder by Marissa Meyer apparently it's is good and she made many more. I can't wait!!!

[@SleepyWiredStudios]

ambitious plan...I'm read a bit od the slow regard for silent things as a sampler for his writing even though the book says not to and enjoyed what I've read so far :D In regards to what my top thing is TBR wise it will definitely be Mars the Manga, The Lotus Wars & finishing off a few series; although reading will take a backseat due to TAFE starting up again and collabing with people on stories :D

[@stevenandhisbooks7809]

I feel you on both still having not read the Slow Regard of Silent Things and also on how damn expensive books can be. It drives me when I see the American price next the the Canadian price I'm gonna have to pay and it's usually $5 more expensive at least. I want less expensive books. It's so depressing.

[@Wolfhailstorm]

Australian prices are ridiculous!! :o

[@Amanda-nq6mw]

My top book of this month is A Torch Against the Night...counting down the days. If you like Auri, you'll like the novella :) it's a nice little slice of her life

[@echoland2774]

Oh I'm excited to hear what you think of The Edible Woman! I read The Handmaids Tale by Margaret Atwood a couple of months ago and absolutely loved it! And Clockwork Prince

[@YasmineArt]

I'm loving the likes on this video !

[@ashleycrawford5151]

I can't wait to see what your thoughts on 10 1/2 Chapters are. I've been wanting to read that for a while!

[@midgardmedia4944]

I really need to re read the Harry Potter books. I finished The Order of the Phoenix right around the time I stopped reading ( I think I was about 8 and the book recently came out) so, I never read the rest of the books. My to read list is so long now that I never get to the Harry Potter books as I'm always looking for something different. The book that just made to the top of my list (I started reading to today after I finished Burmese Days) is The World Without Us by Alan Weisman because I'm writing a post-apocalyptic story and I need to read it for research I'll end up taking about it when I get my booktube series off of the ground..

[@mrgreenleafx]

I'm most looking forward to reading Miss Peregrin's Home for Peculiar Children and Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda since both books have been sitting on my tbr for quite a while now

[@evanquade668]

I haven't read The Wise Man's Fear yet. So that'll be in my pile.

[@HollyByGollyBooks]

LOL omg that ending was fantastic hahahahaha xD and now excuse me while I continuously go through this video until I figure out when you had a sneezing attack

[@readsusiereads]

Best of luck on The Slow Regard of Silent Things!

[@blacksparkle001]

I love your videos so much :D looking forward to your review of the cursed child 🙌

[@Jiji420]

You must finish Rothfuss' books! They are so good! I need to finish The Slow Regard of Silent Things myself. I also now know how to pronounce Kvothe correctly :D Looking forward to more videos

[@graceellenmessimer6805]

What do you study in uni? You always have some interestin sounding books to read for class!

[@One_moor_for_luck]

Wow i do not miss buying books in Australia! Dreadfully expensive :( Looking forward to reading Cursed Child too despite the mixed reviews.

[@AllyMay]

Wow I admire you for still putting up videos during semester! Last semester I accidentally went 3 months without posting anything... Think I'm settled in a bit better now though haha 😂 Hope you get through those books, can't wait to hear what you think about cursed child!

[@MsJulez777]

The History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapters sound awesome!

[@LittleDreamer1412]

I've heard very mixed things about the new HP story. Haven't bought it yet because I want to wait for the German version (cause I own all the other books in German), but I hope you can do a review about it if you find the time!

[@japanjaydee]

Hey, you're reading a Canadian book! I haven't read any Margaret Atwood, though. Looking forward to Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. I haven't read any Patrick Rothfuss books yet, but I do have the first book. I really want to read it. This month, I'm hoping to start The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms by N. K. Jemisin.

[@alittlelifeofmel5157]

I get made when people pronounce Kvothe any other way because I've listened to Rothfuss say it and you say it right!

[@Ray.500]

My guess for when you sneezed is right before edible woman so about 1:40.

[@YasmineArt]

Yes, the red nose x)

[@Rosinacms]

i thought so too, the red nose, the watery eyes.

[@drewsambitiousreading2752]

The book that is at the top of my list is: This Savage Song by Victoria Schwab. I'm currently reading it rn. It's my very first Victoria Schwab book! So, I am liking it! Good luk in your semester!(:

[@Dan-sq9je]

I saw that book, The Slow Regard of Silent Things by Patrick Rothfuss, just now at bookstore (Malaysia) and the price is about RM 52.90. I almost didn't believe it when I saw it.

[@shannonreid2497]

I read a history of the world in 10 1/2 chapters last semester for english and really enjoyed it! It was very different from anything I've read before. I think I gave it a 4/5.

[@mathiaskolb7144]

You need to read The Rising , it's awesome

[@StitchInTime]

I'm most looking forward to reading Recreated by Colleen Houck.

[@haleypotter417]

I love your background

[@raykline7904]

I'm reading Travels With Charley by John Steinbeck

[@BournToRead]

What did you think of 'Clockwork Angel'? I own the book and I want to read it but I"m not sure if I should dive into it or if its a book I can wait on.

[@nea7547]

was that Alex? omg i want more videos of you together!!!

[@cheys_rebrand]

Good luck with university! I'll be joining you in the sadness in a few weeks :( I'm really curious about The Edible Woman. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on it. $28?! Unacceptable.

[@Craftinspiration2000]

If you are going to participate in the bout of books read a thon now in August, do you have to read paranormal books?

[@CaitlynFrench]

my guess for the sneezing fit is 2:40 ? idk

[@nikkik7848]

I'm currently reading Clockwork Prince & agree it has been a bit slow. The whole Mortmain thing just doesnt seem that bad, the hot / cold Will romance is making me roll my eyes. Just finding it annoying atm. Team Jem tho! I am pushing though to read Clockwork Princess & finally finish the series. Yup our book prices suck! i tend to buy on my ereader now & buy the book online if I loved it & want a physical copy. Can only seem to get hardbacks online anyways. Dymocks is just a rip off :( Have you read Stolen Songbird? ive read the 1st 2 books in the trilogy & loved them.

[@Americanka96]

I've already read HP and the Cursed Child) it's a curious read, a lot of strange things happen, but I liked it, it was a real fun :)

[@Becksnnc]

I had to convert $28 australian dollars to £s so I could understand the scale of how expensive that is because thinking of a book as being £28 is absolutely abysmal haha. It's just over £16 and that is still a ridiculous price. The most I've ever spent on a book is £15 on a 600 page graphic novel.

[@ingrid2770]

I absolutely love your videos

[@sceggy60]

OMG I also studied The History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapters and it's amazing! :D Hope you enjoy!

[@sweetieblueish]

BECAUSE DYMOCKS HARDLY HAS ANY SALES GOING ON I wish books were cheaper in Australia:( Even when Border was still a thing books were incredibly expensive:(

[@becbonn]

Kmart is really cheap. The most I've spent on new novels there are about 12-13 dollars xxx

[@Brianna1903]

Buy books online on booktopia it has decent prices and sales all the time :) and the books usually turn up 3days later depending on when you order them!!!

[@paulwinchell6904]

when do you sleep and prices on hard cover books are ridiculous everywhere

[@LissaColleen]

my guess is you sneezed right before 1:44 when you're talking about the edible woman bc you get teary eyed and your nose turns a bit red all of a sudden

[@janelleblozy8931]

right before 1:44

[@Sammyyaam]

What was that ending? Lol

[@eve2364]

$28!?? I got my copy for only $18!!

[@JustineVandale]

The Slow Regard of Silent Things is awful lol. Good luck I DNF'd and The Name of the Wind is my all time fave!!,

[@matthewdarcyyyyy]

I love your videos Cat:)

[@imdadtariq3423]

your background in very beautiful and so are you

[@itzameylin8133]

Gorgeous!

[@imdadtariq3423]

thankyou so much

[@richardtalavera7582]

Hey! Have you read Stephen King?

[@jaedyn225]

Why can't books be really cheap?? like that last price was ridiculous

[@dustbinflowers]

Didn't like Cursed Child as much as I hoped I would.

[@sofianab8821]

that outro tho hahahaha

[@sankalpsundar1668]

you sneezed at 1:42 or 1:43...I think...

[@chessitochesstuber]

J.K. shouldn't have ever written the new Harry Potter book. Authors must learn when to stop.

[@MadiganinPeach]

Don't you love people who know everything there is to know about everything and you clearly know nothing?
