UNHAUL 100+ BOOKS WITH ME + GIVEAWAY! | Bookish Vlog

[@Happyindulgencebooks]

You're so strong getting rid of signed copies of books that you enjoyed in the past! Great work Sandy!

[@thebookcave8906]

I seriously love watching unhauls or any type of decluttering videos 😅

[@kevinkelly_]

This is so brutal! I wish I had your savageness 😂 the amount of books you’re getting rid of Omg 😳

[@sandyreadsalot]

haha it was helpful that a lot of the books i unhauled were books i couldn't really see myself rereading in the future!

[@YBizzy1]

Unhauls are so satisfying to watch 😌 and it seems that you’ve read all the ones on your shelves !

[@ajreads7350]

i unhauled the entire throne of glass series and it felt GOOD, they take up so much room on the shelf

[@LyraBattersea]

That’s so cool that you had so many signed and personalised books.

[@WhittyNovels]

i gotta little nervous when you got to the shatter me shelf to see if you were gonna do it or not LOL

[@WhittyNovels]

I POSTED THIS COMMENT TOO SOON YOU ARE GETTING RID OF IT HAHAHAH it's ok tho get that matching series girl

[@stephaniew.7623]

For your arcs it might be an option do look for book exchange shelves, where you can either leave them or actually exchange them if you find a book you like to take. We have them showing up more and more here in germany and I have seen them while travelling as well, though I don't know if there are a lot in the states. It might be a good option for arcs though.

[@Leonasambongo]

It’s so amazing that so many people do videos on books. It really shows you can make a KZbin out of anything almost. I love books and am happy so many people on KZbin do videos on anything and everything book related.

[@sandyreadsalot]

Yess, I love the online book community! It's such a great place to bond over books with other people!

[@NicolesBookNook94]

Wow you unhauled so many books! Also so impressed by how many of your books you have actually read 👏

[@bookswithmakenzie5461]

That’s an insane amount of books! But now you will have more room to get books that will make you happy

[@nestwithbooks]

Found your channel today and I’m marathoning your videos. Absolutely love your voice!

[@sandyreadsalot]

aww thank you! :)

[@xoalsophx]

this is so satisfying!!! as much as i love buying books, i equally enjoy getting rid of them for other people to read 😌

[@BookswithBrandieShanae]

Your book collection is amazing!!!

[@anitan4544]

Research your local schools, nonprofits, and homeless shelters. They’re almost always looking for donated books, even if they’re ARCs!

[@sandyreadsalot]

Definitely! I'm working on that, thanks!

[@WhittyNovels]

look into organizations in your area that accept book donations for women's shelters or disadvantaged teens! there's a place in my area that is a refuge/rehabilitation center type thing for women and teens who have been victims of sex trafficking and they accept teen books for donation to give to their girls for free and i feel better doing that than donating it somewhere like goodwill where they'll just turn around and put a price tag on it.

[@sandyreadsalot]

thanks, whitney! i'll definitely look into that!

[@operativealyssa]

It lowkey became a bookshelf tour too.

[@susanam10]

Wow I don't know if I would be able to unhaul so many books since I'm super attached to mine 😅 But good for you for cleaning your shelves; it does seem like something that would feel freeing! 🙂

[@sandyreadsalot]

a lot of the books i unhauled were books that i couldn't see myself rereading so i wasn't as attached to them haha - it made the unhauling process a lot easier!

[@MaryAmongStories]

oh wow, great unhaul!

[@suzannev334]

This video wants to make me get rid of a lot of my books. Very inspiring

[@abiloughlin98]

So savage! This makes me want to take a look at what I don’t want on my shelves anymore 🤔

[@sandyreadsalot]

yesss do it! it's such a soothing process haha

[@belleofthebooks9506]

If you still have the Cruel Prince arc, I'd love it! I'd pay shipping for it! Also, wow. Thats a lot of books. I love unhauls. Sooo therapeutic

[@sandyreadsalot]

Sorry, I already gave it away!

[@MangoesBooks]

Omg you are so brave unhauling a lot of signed copies! Some parts it's like you're pulling out random books from your shelf to unhaul it gave me a slight heart attack 😂 good on you for unhauling so much books!!

[@cirac7508]

Wow that was so refreshing to watch lol... just let me take the sister of the winter wood and the darkdeep off you hand lol... just ask library if they take arcs some do some dont

[@karendurham6957]

Wow! I need to declutter, but I don't think I'll start with my books!

[@ivymuse]

I kept getting distracted by the series on your shelves that are in the wrong order sorry what were you saying? 😂

[@sandyreadsalot]

LOL which series are in the wrong order?

[@ivymuse]

​@@sandyreadsalot i think the red queen series and another one, but it was before you started reorganizing your shelves so maybe they're fine now :P

[@eviemelona]

I would ask the library if they take ARCs just in case; I know my local library doesn't, but others might.

[@sandyreadsalot]

unfortunately my library doesn't but i'm working on looking for organizations that do!

[@teresamedeiros7312]

Can you donate the ARC's to a school library or a senior center?

[@multifandomxseriesx9560]

YOURE SO STRONG

[@CherrieWalker]

I need to do a major book unhaul soon too!

[@Reading_Tamishly]

The Similars is a fun read

[@sandyreadsalot]

Oooh, that's good to hear! I can't wait to read it!

[@writernotchessplayer]

142 books, wow. That is impressive! I'm a total book hoarder, so I don't think I could ever do that, at least not in one haul XD

[@BrittanyandBooks]

I would definitely be interested in a giveaway for arcs! (Specifically for What If It's Us!!)

[@nikkafebadlaon3630]

I wish I had your courage to unhaul books which were signed by the authors!!!!! So much love to your channel 💛

[@sandyreadsalot]

Haha yeah it was hard but I couldn't see myself ever rereading those books in the future. Thank you!

[@zoepoeloe]

How do you get sent books by publisher

[@bookellenic1327]

Thanks for hosting an intl giveaway! Wow that was a lot of unhauled books right there! And I'm waiting for 10 books in the mail 🙊

[@manoeksbooknook]

Wow this is so satisfying to watch tbh

[@Shadywolf09]

NO! Not the Red Queen books!! It's okay. Books don't always speak to everyone. As much as I like them, I respect your decision to get rid of them.

[@sandyreadsalot]

Aww thanks for being so kind and understanding!

[@ForTheLoveOfBooksAndReading]

When you held up the An Ember in the Ashes, I was like 😱😱😱 but then I realized those were extra copies 😅😅

[@sandyreadsalot]

Haha 😂

[@rodamo9237]

Wow, that was so satisfying to watch.

[@hanabanana8028]

i need to do this with my books but i'm such a horder and i have an absurd idea that i can read *every single book* on my tbr even tho i have 200+ books and i average about 50 books a year 😫

[@megan6658]

SO MANY BOOKS! :)

[@wrencrain6403]

This makes me want to do an unhaul just so I have room for all the new books coming out this year but I'm so weak.

[@charliemaryann1654]

I’m ready to get rid of some books! :)

[@louisity]

I am reading Emergency Contact by Mary H. K. Choi. I saw it in your shelves so that made me smile. 😁

[@sandyreadsalot]

I hope you're enjoying it! I really want to pick it up next month!

[@BlondeBooks]

This was a fantastic unhaul!!

[@sandyreadsalot]

Thank you!

[@sanasaddiq]

I love an unhaul!

[@barbarasenteney1011]

Put your arcs in a tiny library box, or donate them to a school

[@Chickenwenn]

girl your book collection is bigger than mine, probably cuz I go to the library lol. I'm so jealllous~

[@sandyreadsalot]

A lot of the books that I unhauled were used books that I've already read so I'm making room for new ones :) but I also have been relying on my library so much more!

[@Chickenwenn]

@@sandyreadsalot Trruuue I would love to get books but I'm afraid that if I buy it, I might regret it. So I just normally go to the library cheaper though more time consuming.

[@readingatmoonlight7444]

I should do an unhaul too

[@yasuminc.3277]

I want the firebird series😭 I really want to read it

[@emmaoncesaid]

Good luck to everyone! I am so siked for this giveaway!

[@pierinareads5539]

YOU ARE BRAAAAVE! I was in literal shock when you just kept pulling things off your shelves and the piles at the end 😱 honestly fair play that you decluttered and now you have so much space to add new books!

[@SuspirosdaBea]

I think you could do giveawys with arcs... don't know, we don't have them in portugal xD

[@yassine3867]

The sun is also a star 🙏😍

[@KatiesBookNook426]

[@sandyreadsalot]

[@WhittyNovels]

I already sold it unfortunately! But maybe if you win my giveaway, you can get it haha

[@MadiLovesBeuty]

I hate when people make a huge deal about books being “problematic”. Like so what? It’s a story not a life lesson

[@sandyreadsalot]

Are you referring to me unhauling books that I mentioned were problematic? I don't think unhauling problematic books is a "huge deal" as I also unhaul a bunch of other books that I just don't see myself rereading in the future. While books tell stories, words can still be very powerful and have impacts on readers that can be very positive or sometimes, even hurtful. I don't think we should invalidate that.

[@MadiLovesBeuty]

sandyreadsalot Yes, but also just in general. I watched multiple booktubers talk about “problematic” books and this just happened to be the video I snapped on, it is in no way a direct attack at you. I don’t think it’s fair to label books as problematic when they are just fictional stories. If a reader is hurt by the words or the stories then that is on them. It is their job to differentiate real life from a fictional story, if they are unable to do that then that is their problem, not the books or the authors. All books are art and each one tells a different story, it is not a requirement for the author to play by all readers “feelings” when writing. That would be a very boring world of stories.

[@trinhsformerz]

DON'T UNHAUL THE GRISHA TRILOGY I DON'T EVEN LOVE IT BUT DON'T DO IT how on earth did you get 2 signed copies of thug lol 5:10 pika pika i love how you have a shrine for the seven husbands of evelyn hugo what a mood

[@sandyreadsalot]

don't worry, i didn't unhaul the grisha trilogy. lmao i actually have a total of 3 signed copies of THUG (one for me and it's currently displayed on my contemporary shelves). Basically, when THUG first came out, I bought a copy to read. Then, I met Angie Thomas for the first time at ALA in 2017 and got a free signed copy of THUG there. A couple months later, Angie Thomas came to do a signing in the Chicago area but I had to buy another copy of THUG to get into the signing and that's when I got her to sign my original copy of THUG as well. So that's how I ended up with 3 signed copies of THUG xD

[@sarahmouhoub8494]

I wish I can buy books 💔 Please if you consider doing this again I would love if you could donate some of your books to me.. I do love books a lot but don't have money to buy them :( Much love.. Stay safe 💕💕

[@sarahmouhoub8494]

@xxWonderland reading books in printed format is way too different ^^ thanks anyway

[@booksandlifewithlaura2143]

Please, don't unhaul The sisters of the winter wood. I have heard that it is awesome and I want to buy The sisters of the winter wood myself but the paperback is expensive in Finland.

[@StitchInTime]

Nobody is going to want signed books that are personalised I could be wrong.

[@sandyreadsalot]

Personally I don’t mind buying books that are signed/personalized to someone else’s name if they’re in good condition and sold at a discounted price. It’s the content of the book that matters to me.
