Your hair! OMG 😍

[@ashleyjoyes4425]

BooksandLala ikr and also her makeup

[@BooksandLala]

I'm so ready for this list.

[@magikai6016]

You are so right about graphic novels being expensive. I usually can’t talk myself into buying them full price as I go through them so fast

[@cryptic_cuties5875]

You are gorgeous! And my 5 year old daughter said you look like a unicorn 😊

[@myreadingisodd]

Aww that's the cutest!

[@bookishmamaa]

I love your make up in this video so much! And the furby shirt is soo cool reminds me of my childhood. My furby used to make strange sounds and once we couldn’t find it and it was moaning for weeks somewhere behind a closet :D One of my favorite books was Skyward by Brandon Sanderson.

[@mayahreads3034]

I loved the Long Way to a Small Angry Planet for the exact same reason! It's so beautifully and wonderfully diverse. And it can happen in real life!! I teach English to newcomers and that book 100% reminded me of my classroom and all the beautiful diverse friendships I get to witness every day.

[@theresed3639]

Awesome list💕 The audio of Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo was magical .... one of the best ever☺️

[@sofieborglund3325]

I`ve only read The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and Love, Hate and Other Filters. Loved the first one and really liked the other. Got so many recommendations from your video . Thank you!

[@zoedanielle565]

You should find out if your library lets you borrow books through hoopla-- they have a ton of graphic novels if you don't mind reading them digitally! I just borrowed the first volume of I Hate Fairyland. thanks for the suggestion!

[@beth_shoe_addicted_reader]

Girl Made of Stars!! One of my favorites this year too. So good!!

[@bananashana8848]

I loved Evelyn Hugo. It was definitely my favorite book of 2018. Also, I am totally diggin that Furby shirt!

[@JamieReads]

Adding tons of these to my tbr!!! ❤❤❤

[@hayleycat4899]

Salem’s lot is my all time favorite Stephen King. Out of the six I read Salem’s lot haunted me and the way it ended was fantastic. So glad I’m not the only one who loved it.

[@proseb4bros976]

Oh my god...I LOVED My Best Friend's Exorcism! It was one of my favorites this year. I got to meet Hrady Hendrix at a book expo here in Cincinnati and he was so nice. He wore a tacky red velour blazer...it was magical, lol.

[@32mybelle]

Well I thought I was well read. Thanks for the new TBR books!

[@GainedMonaters]

Ooh you have got to read the next Wayfarers book (it’s really a companion novel not a sequel), it’s my favorite of the 3 and I didn’t think I could love it more than Long Way to a Small Angry Planet but it made me cry like, 3 separate times and I never cry at books. It was just that good.

[@danieladominguez3008]

I LOVE your Stephen King collection 😍😍😍 i’m a huge fan too

[@abibliophobe2731]

I loved nos4A2! I ended up finding a hardcover copy used and had to get it so I could reread one day!

[@kelsenator]

I loved the kiss quotient as well!! Another of my favourite books this year was Sadie by Courtney Summers (all of her books are great). Thanks for sharing your favs!

[@xioishere]

Woah did I just order almost all 18 books that appear on this video?? Yes 😂 I have no regrets

[@genresandjournals]

What a lovely mix of books! Happy New Year to you!

[@RainyDaysandStormyNights]

A MORE DIVERSE FIREFLY??? SIGN ME TF UP! also your hair is gorgeous

[@nerdymax1616]

I loved NOS4A2! Hands down, favorite book of 2018. Now I’m on the hunt for Wraith which seems to be a comic miniseries based on Christmasland.

[@danamelton1738]

I found your channel in mid 2018 and I am so glad to go into 2019 to enjoy even more. Your my favorite KZbin find 💝. You do such an amazing job. Your channel is fun and informative and serious when need be. Thank you for putting your thoughts out into the world for all of us. Much love from north Carolina Xoxo

[@VBPlans]

Now we need to make you a book make up collection to go with the circus collection!

[@CharlesWarrenOnline]

Love your diverse taste.

[@myreadingisodd]

I try my best!

[@BeccaandTheBooks]

So glad to see Saga on here! It made my list too 😊

[@SpinesAndSpoilers]

Just received NOS4A2 as a Secret Santa present and I'm so excited!

[@StonedNana]

Just discovered your channel and this is the first video I've watched. Gotta say, you read really interesting books, I like your reading tastes, you seem to read a lot of titles that I have never even heard of. Really glad to have discovered your channel. :)

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

The fact that I haven’t read any of these is blasphemy 😅

[@moonchildyoushine4575]

Based on the description of 'Sourdough' (I haven't read it myself, so this could be way off), I think you might like 'The Girl Who Chased the Moon', by Sarah Addison Allen. There's a nice element of magical realism to that book that I really enjoyed.

[@getaspine7076]

AAaaannnd Sourdough was the best pleasant surprise!

[@LeighannesLit]

first of all I love the hair color, and second of all, so many good books on this list! Joe Hill, King, Hendrix, I love it. 😍

[@myreadingisodd]

Thank you! It was a good year for horror authors that's for sure!

[@JanuarieTimewalker13]

Great video!! Happy New Year!

[@RachelKathrynnn]

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is my favorite book of all time! Anytime someone asks me for a book rec I always say it! It's so good and everyone should read it!

[@stacisbookishprobs8043]

I’m ready to read Anger Is a Gift

[@MercuryCalling]

Hi! I love these videos at the end of the year and I'm really glad I stumbled onto yours! We have such similar taste, but I haven't read any Stephen King yet, although I love a lot of his film adaptations! I also love Joe Hill--if you're looking for a horror graphic novel, Locke & Key by Hill is ace. I read it through my library so if you're looking for a cheaper option, that might be one! xx

[@MercuryCalling]

I LOVE MY BEST FRIEND'S EXORCISM!!! It's like one of my faves of all time! I love the balance of being scary but also really uplifting and great. Yayyyyy!!!!!!!!

[@neverashore]

I was super into your videos already (I just found you recently!) but then you loved sourdough and I was sold

[@kathievolk6128]

Wow, I don't think I have ever found a book tuber that loved so many of the same books as myself!! Sourdough , Summer of Salt, Undead Girl Gang and so many more. I read one book that no one talks about but I bet you would like it. Scream All Night by Derek Milman, set in a castle where horror movies are made but a deep family story. Check it out.

[@cryingaboutbooks]

YOUR EFFING SHIRT !!!!!! 😂😂😂 finally!!!

[@comrade_furby]

My best friend's exorcism is definitely going on my list 😍 honestly a lot of these books are. What an awesome year of reading!

[@anitanoordenbos1584]

Really loved The Seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo and the kiss quotient. And summer of salt was also very very good

[@laurasblondemoments]

So many good ones. Now I need to read sourdough! I have had The Child Finder and also The Enchanted by Rene Denfeld on my TBR forever, so I need to make them happen in 2019, and especially now that the sequel, The Butterfly Museum will be published. ❤️

[@myreadingisodd]

Oooh cool. Yeah do read Sourdough I loved it!

[@Zzapi]

That freaking hair tho??????????? Girl what 😍😍😍😍😍

[@danaepyle8003]

too hot in Texas to get frost bite! Have a wonderful new year!!! ( for you, your hubs, and kitteh)

[@kimberlymcpherson5186]

I love your hair and I am hard of hearing as well. Definitely can't wait to get to some of these books!

[@afrodititsangarou7858]

great recommendations and your hair is goals 💙

[@danecobain]

Heart-Shaped Box is in my top books of 2018 and I have NOS4R2 (because I'm British) on my TBR :D

[@gaiaathena-books]

I loved Radio Silence and A Quiet Kind of Thunder. Two of my favourite books.

[@myreadingisodd]

They are both fantastic.

[@cryingaboutbooks]

“if you don’t want to immediately eat 17 loaves of bread...” sister I wanted to MAKE some bread!! Sourdough is so underrated bro, I recently read it and now I’m like “wow, I need everyone to read this and love it”

[@ErinEpps]

As someone who has been told this...what would you read first if the doctor told you that you'd be blind in five years? I'm 32 and the doctor said before I hit 40 I will be totally blind...but I love to read and want to read as much as I can before I am plunged entirely into darkness.

[@getaspine7076]

I want to send you graphic novels! My 2 favorite book shops have a plethora of good ones and I need to share their greatness. Plus one store has buy 2 get 1 graphic novels.. a deal so good everyone thinks i'm lying when I tell them lol.

[@smaise12]

I also read the Child Finder, and I agree that it is amazing. I had a lot of favorites (twenty three 5 🌟 books), but I think one of the best out of my list is Darius the Great Is Not Okay. Contemporary novel with a kid who has depression and is Arabic. I loved it, and I thought the mental illness part was represented well.

[@bookellenic1327]

Well my tbr just grew again, thanks.for that 😋

[@shannonsstories9781]

If you loved Sourdough and magical realism you should really try The Particular Sadness Of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender!

[@FromJessToYou]

Awesome list and you look lovely! Thanks for sharing. =0)

[@AstridAnex]

Woooo ❤️

[@MsAg1985]

May I ask where your glasses are from? :)

[@seeowlread]

Long Way was my favorite of the year until I read A Closed and Common Orbit. I didn’t think it could be better than the first one but it was for me.

[@myreadingisodd]

Ooooh I can't wait now!

[@horror-sickness]

I have heard of all these and read none...wow...well except Salem's Lot, because Stephen King ❤

[@irishmoxie]

Where did you get that Furby shirt?

[@bookfinch2182]

If you like weird reads I recommend The Strange Fascinations of Noah Hypnotik

[@lesleythegreater]

Girl what is this lip color I need it

[@myreadingisodd]

Some sort of Bite Beauty color.

[@oreobooks6162]

Aww, The Child Finder sounds really interesting and sad :( I’ll contemplate picking it up

[@myreadingisodd]

It's both of those things!

[@quantumparadox2518]

Have you ever read any Richard Laymon? I think you would flip for his stuff. Think Stephen King times a million

[@moonbook12]

18:29 and you match the book when you met him

[@myreadingisodd]

Yes I did! He was so sweet!

[@charismaticdaughter]

Please please tell me there's going to be a least favorites of 2018 too. I love hearing people actually discuss why books are heinous

[@christinag2420]

The Apocalypse of Elena Mendoza is a book I really want to read but hearing you say it's better than We Are the Ants hurt me

[@elliehamilton8285]

What's your Goodreads ? ❤️

[@breakdownmywall7413]

Ellie Hamilton I would looove to know this too!

[@elijahd.7978]

It's linked in her channel's about section!

[@lolalove7799]

you sound like Cher kind of

[@myreadingisodd]

I'll take it.
