WHAT I READ THIS SUMMER!

[@readbyzoe]

I somehow forgot that I also read Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout during my first 24 hour readathon (thanks to Hannah Theron for reminding me)! I gave it 3.5/5 stars and I still haven't picked up the sequel 😬

[@thegalaxydonutshow]

readbyzoe Do you recommend it? I was thinking of picking it up.

[@Ashley-p1x]

GalaxyDonutBookReviews I recommend it!!😄

[@ellashea4458]

Readbyzoe I used to hate reading and even though you are YA and I am 11 you still make me want to read. So far this month I have read 12 books!

[@JosefineMay]

when you're ready to say Zoe's intro with her, but then she cuts off after "Hey KZbin it's Zoe" and you're just sitting there awkwardly saying "or readbyezoe" by yourself.... 😂

[@alynepadilla3057]

Josefine May I thought I was the only one!

[@gumplex101]

me too!!

[@LindaV.95]

haha this was literally me :')

[@FreyaFJ]

You just stole my comment :/

[@toto-dx2to]

Oommmg yessss😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@spaceacekaitlin333]

Every time I watch a readbyzoe video, my TBR list gets bigger! Thanks for that! 💜💜💜💜

[@thefirstchapter6146]

Your videos never fail to make me smile :D

[@aichk7786]

This might be TMI but I've been extremely sick today since I woke up roughly 2 hours ago puking everywhere and my mother is talking to a doctor right now but I feel significantly better watching your video which is something that never fails to happen. (Gonna binge watch your videos now ♡) keep up the awesmazing work and stay beautiful. All the love.

[@moviefan6688]

MJ Aich I hope you're doing okay 😁

[@aichk7786]

Caoibhe Morrissey Thank you so much. I am feeling a bit better.

[@moviefan6688]

[@BEATRIIIZOLAAA]

I hope you're feeling better, love xx

[@clairey.sunshine2016]

You're my fave booktuber! Zoe please upload more often! Even reading vlogs!

[@LaurenceRoberge]

I agree with everything you said about Anne of Green Gables! It’s no surprise though - I absolutely love it and I’ve been recommending it to you since I subscribed to your channel, so I’m really happy that you enjoyed it so much (who wouldn’t?).

[@EmilyCheetham]

Unfortunately I didn’t read as many over the summer this year due time getting a puppy. Puppy took up all my time and only been able to get back to reading in the last month.

[@lenavm]

I also read The Upside of Unrequited this summer and it instantly because one of my all time favourite books! I related to Molly so much and gahhh i really want to reread it now😂 I loved absolutely everything about it! X

[@TerrigenCrystal]

Helena x It's such an endearing book! Reid is the cutest.

[@lenavm]

TerrigenCrystal Yess he is! I was completely Team Reid from the moment he was introduced haha😂

[@TerrigenCrystal]

Helena x Yesss, same!

[@mysteriousskin]

Helena x ugh same I just wanted to keep on reading and reading. Becky albertalli literally never disappoints and I’m so excited for love simon I have chills

[@michaelrojas1742]

Molly is just so relatable I'm really happy I didn't expect much from it cause I really enjoyed it. Can't wait to read Simon Vs The HomoSapiens Agenda

[@peachyedits8954]

Did you not also read Obsidian during your 24hr readathon?

[@readbyzoe]

OH TRUE I TOTALLY FORGOT! I guess I forgot to enter it into Goodreads, which is where I track my reading? Thanks for reminding me!

[@MikePagonis1]

Zoe uploads, I smile :)

[@readbyzoe]

Thanks so sweet, thank you! You smiling makes me smile 😊

[@MikePagonis1]

❤️ love your channel! Keep smiling and good luck at all your projects! Thanks for replying!! 😄

[@TerrigenCrystal]

My favorite summer read was definitely Gentelman's Guide. I need more Monty and Percy in my life.

[@readbyzoe]

Sameee I love them

[@puk3fairy]

TerrigenCrystal Me too! I somehow got my way into getting an ARC copy and I'm just. Yes!

[@racquelmccrary3896]

You are my favorite booktuber! Your videos can never be too long I love every minute!

[@krissyn.3366]

Yay! I have missed seeing your videos. They put me in a good mood.

[@getibanez6848]

ANNE OF GREEN GABLES!!!! That edition is beeeeautiful ❤️

[@slreads7179]

This is such an impressive wrap-up. I absolutely loved The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue! It had great representation and diversity all around, and it was just a great period novel. I can't wait for the sequel!

[@blainevanity6]

Tomorrow is Oct 14. I can't wait for the readathon!!

[@blainevanity6]

Oh, I'll be reading Dream Thieves and an Agatha Christie book

[@sabiha.sayeed]

I LOVE ANNE OF GREEN GABLES! That, and A Little Princess are my childhood favourites.

[@autumnrosedearborn8923]

L. M. Montgomery became my new favorite author this year!!! I read Anne, Emily Of New Moon, Jane Of Lantern Hill, and The Blue Castle, and will be reading every book she's ever written! I already bought the complete Anne series, the complete Emily trilogy, and ones on its way called Among The Shadows. More are on my Christmas wish list! Hahaha I can't get enough of her writing! Just amazing 💕

[@florakaniz735]

Lovely background decor and the fairy lights :)

[@LegendofLorieBooks]

I'm glad you enjoyed Saga! It's so good! :D

[@ForTheLoveOfBooksAndReading]

Yay! So glad you picked up Saga! It's such a great graphic novel series with a really wonderful message. I hope you enjoy all the other books!

[@luvBB4lyf]

you might like V.E. Schwab's Vicious, Darker Shade of Magic (completed trilogy), or This Savage Song (completed duology)!

[@mellymel8474]

luvBB4lyf all of those are on Tbr:)

[@puggermc6808]

Hi Zoe. Is it possible for you to make a video based on Books we should read for Halloween? Also I am currently reading How to stop time by Matt Haig and I think you would love it, you should read it 😊

[@aterrill18]

I've heard Schwab's newer books are way better than her first. I LOVED the Shades of Magic trilogy and Vicious! I haven't had time to read her latest, but she's definitely one of my favorite authors. I hope you have the chance to try her again!! Also, Anne of Green Gables is the best, isn't it? I absolutely love the whole series.

[@wilmabengs2469]

I discovered your channel today and has binge-watched your videos all my free time, I absolutely love your content and personality!

[@ImSlayah]

Becky is writing a new book about Leah, who is bisexual. I'm so happy

[@shresthakml7241]

Devil Slyy me too omg I'm so ready

[@fabulousbookfiend9127]

Wow you read so many big big books! I Loved big little lies when I read it last year, Liane Moriarty writes such suspenseful books. Also love The Upside of Unrequited & definitely related to it too. I couldn't get into Gentlemans Guide unfortunately! Look forward to some more readathon action soon 😊

[@devonmunn5728]

I have read two books that are mentioned in this video. I read Big Little Lies back in March and it's one of my favorite books of the year. I have read five volumes of Saga, it did take me a while to get into it, I definitely would recommend an other one of his series titled Y: The Last Man (along with some other comic series like Fables, The Wicked + The Divine, Revival, Sweet Tooth, Lazarus, The Woods, I Zombie and Locke & Key) and my favorite book I read this summer was American Gods

[@efi5750]

literally so happy you uploaded !!

[@Bookishbroccoli1]

My favorite books this summer: The Hating Game by Sally Thorne All for the Game Trilogy by Nora Sakavic Red Rising Trilogy by Pierce Brown The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller Simon vs The Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli Dark Matter by Blake Crouch Eliza and Her Monsters by Francesca Zappia Gentleman's Guide of Vice and Virtue Wolfsong by TJ Klune Beautiful Monsters series by Jex Lane

[@lakshmimanoj6610]

Kistal Gordon A lot of painfully good books in there. Are you alright?

[@lenawils5857]

Your videos are always so much fun! You always inspire me to up my reading and book tube game :) You go, girl!

[@xSophytJe]

I also loved the Upside of Unrequited as well!! It was so recognizable!!!

[@LucieReads]

I read Always & Forever Lara Jean over the summer as well, and loved it! Definitely was my favorite of the series :)

[@izziejackson256]

I just found my favorite new booktuber 😊

[@katiestewart7926]

I felt the same about The Archived- but I've read most of her other books (Monsters of Verity, Shades of Magic and Vicious) and I've enjoyed the books that are considered "adult" way more. Definitely give some of her other books a try- Shades of Magic is particularly good.

[@hana9417]

Yes yes YES, Anne of Green Gables 😍😍😍 I LOVE those books so much; Anne is just so quirky and adorable and Gilbert Blythe is one of my ultimate book boyfriends!

[@cookieaddictions]

I felt the same about The Archived, and I held off on her books for a few years because of it. But I loved some of her other books, which I read this year. I recommend A Darker Shade of Magic or This Savage Song.

[@my.life.as.michelle8987]

My favourite summer reads were definitely "The Upside of Unrequited" and "ACOWAR". I also read "A Gentleman's Guide for Vice and Virtue" and it was just so much fun!

[@bookmania1622]

You are so sweet Zoë

[@harleyjohnson3861]

I got so excited when I saw the tweet where you said you had uploaded a video!!!

[@emilymarie3824]

[@jacullyhunter3975]

[@oliwiaszo]

[@fatimababar4168]

[@talonalexander4824]

Has anyone read flowers for Algernon I remember reading it and crying my eyes out at the end

[@Andrea-tw1jp]

I want to read We Are Ok and Every Heart A Doorway so badly since I saw your 24h readathon. From those books I've only read Little Women (loved it obviously) and The Upside Of Unrequited (loved it too). Hope you're doing well!! XOXO from Spain.

[@friederike1977]

I‘m meeting Becky Albertally on Saturday (she comes to Germany!) and have only read Simon Vs. But I am going to get this signed!

[@Brenda_Castillo95]

I love watching your videos because it helps me with my anxiety.

[@imperatrice211]

I loved reading Eliza and her Monsters this summer !! 😊

[@saralace8966]

[@kiadaphne8419]

[@Victoria-hy1mt]

I had the same feelings about Big Little Lies and LOVED IT! My favorite book of 2017 so far.

[@evajannie5539]

Sooo glad you're back :)

[@lalaluccy]

i recently bought Saga and shall read it soon! It'll be my first graphic novel :) I really wanna read Anne of Green Gables! Also, you should defs read Lord of Shadows soon!!! xxx

[@ayabuchler4467]

I read Magnus Chase this summer- I can't even describe with words my obsession over it xD You're amazing, your videos make me smile even when I'm not feeling that great 💙🖤

[@xxflipchick22xx]

I love the color of your shirt. So cute! I don’t see a lot of shirts in that color.

[@Kayla1777]

So excited for a new video Zoe! Thanks for making them and the time and effort that goes into them. Kayla PS: I ABSOLUTELY LOVE GILMORE GIRLS TOO, my GO to cosy TV show! Also- Have you watched the Netflix original series 'Anne with an 'E'? It's so wonderful!

[@katsuki_fan2465]

Anne of Green Gables is my all-time favorite book. The series are great!

[@legslikewhoa]

Your curls are on point!!!

[@clairelloyd7435]

Zoe. I love watching ur vids. U r such a lovely person and have such a sweet disposition. Keep up the amazing work. Xxx

[@sarakabir755]

I missed your videos! Welcome back 💙

[@worthathousandwords6926]

ahhhh this video made me happy So glad you loved Anne of Green Gables; it's my favourite book of all time and I love seeing more people reading it ❤️

[@chloestansifer986]

We Are Okay is my FAVORITEEEEEE book ever, and when you pulled it up I gasped so hard haha

[@Lucy-june]

I’m currently reading Anne of Green Gables and I’m loving it so far! I don’t understand why I have waited so long to read it! ☺️💗

[@megansidders8286]

Yay so happy to see your video on my subscription box!🙂

[@JillWantsAHug]

My favourite booktuber ♥️

[@chvp4605]

Yay sooo many awesome books and aksksksms I missed Zoe so much so yay new video!!💕🙌🏻😍I also totally agree about not judging authors by their first book(*cough* City of Bones *cough*)

[@bsami26]

before you upload this in about an hour I was checking your channel for the warp ups of the last months because I am looking for new reads ... never have I ever had my wish came true so fast or at all 😂😂😂

[@m_ms39]

I haven’t read the archived but you should have started with vicious, a darker shade of magic is also really good but vicious is shorter and a stand-alone so better for a readathon

[@joseeshelf]

the spiderwick chronicle was the series that started me on books ❤️

[@readbyzoe]

That's so cool! I love hearing how people got into reading 💜

[@joseeshelf]

ps : love your videos keep the good work on informing us :)

[@LLuna768]

My two favorite books that I read this summer are "The Book of Unknown Americans" by Cristina Henriquez and "Behind Closed Doors" by B A Paris.

[@beepboop9976]

I’m late watching this but I love your passion for reading so much!

[@xreadingsolacex]

i love how you just breezed by the fact that you once thought you were a faerie growing up

[@walaalawami1432]

The Shadow of the wind. It was so good.

[@PoeticButterfly13]

My favorite book I read this summer was And I Darken by Kiersten White and I loved it soooooo much!! I honestly could not be happier that I randomly drew this book out of my Ravenclaw Reads Jar because I probably would not have picked up, at least not as soon as I did.

[@Rozitaaah]

I'm reading the HP series, I started at the start of September and I've got less than 100 pages left of the 5th book. I'm loving it.

[@melanivega9827]

This Savage Song by Victoria Schwab is really good!

[@mysteriousskin]

I loved anne with an e on Netflix (which is the adaptation of anne of green gables) and it was so amazing I binged it in two days so I really recommend watching it if you loved the book it’s so cute ! And the episodes are so long it’s great

[@lappybrar9031]

I want to read The Upside of Unrequited now solely because you said it was like eating a warm chocolate chip cookie LOL So many books zoe!! How do you do it?! I can barely get through a book or two a month because I'm so busy :( Love this video and it was so fun to catch up and see what you've read! :)

[@Athroneofbooks]

I love GGTVAV and Lady Midnight!! The Upside of Unrequited is on my TBR and I also read Always and Forever Lara Jean over summer XDD It's crazy how you read so many books in summer ahhhh I couldn't even read 10 hahaha

[@TerrigenCrystal]

Athroneofbooks You'll love The Upside of Unrequited. It's adorable.

[@metzmon1]

I just wanted you to know something. I just finished reading "The Raven Boys" (late to that party, I know!) and, after seeing you cosplay as Blue in one of your videos, I totally pictured you as the character the entire time I was reading it. I cannot see Blue any other way!

[@gabbyg8908]

The Near Witch is V.E’s first published novel

[@aideeng8259]

The Shades of Magic series is VE Schwabs best work in my opinion; it's very different from The Archived.

[@RebeccaReads]

I went into my first 'VE Schwab book feeling sceptical and unsure how I would take it. Quickest read of the year. I definitely recommend Vicious! Standalone and fast paced:)

[@bambiquartz]

saga is my ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE comic everrrr

[@MariaMightReadThat]

I just read Every Heart A Doorway and felt pretty much the same way. Enjoyed it but wanted a bit more. Hyped books are so tough to go into with no expectations...

[@charlottedorey4364]

I ADORE Anne of Green Gables and I’m so surprised I’m still encountering people that don’t know it somehow? And I’m Canadian you’d think people would have listened to me yelling about it by now!

[@mellymel8474]

charlotte Dorey have you tried "Before green gables "?

[@stephpiano2908]

Oh my god that reminds me that Im yet to watch the Netflix series, I loved the books so much when I first started high school

[@pilllowcloud3847]

My aunt just bought me the whole series so I’m excited to get started on reading them! I’m also Canadian haha 😂

[@TheGabriel2002]

Down Among Sticks And Bones which is the second book in the Wayward Children Series(every heart a doorway) came out in June and the third comes out next year

[@TheGabriel2002]

P.S The Husband's Secret by Liane Moriarty is also a great book

[@franciscatoledo2378]

i'm currently in the middle of The gentleman's guide to vice and virtue, and i'm loving it!!! 😍

[@grungegirl1604]

My favourite books I read this past season was The Things I Didn't Say by Kylie Fornaiser and The Fault In Our Stars which had been on my shelves for ages but yeah! The worst the was my teacher said something out of the book without even notciing it the day after I finished reading it!

[@domvoyage]

My favorite read this summer would probably have to be Lucky in Love by Kasie West or The Geek's Guide to Unrequited Love by Sarvenaz Tash! :)

[@wan-chichen7919]

Omg I'm sad that you only gave The Archived 3 stars ;( I truly luv this series so much haha

[@juancruzmarelli1708]

Thanks to you I read 13 books that I loved in the las few months and I´d say my favourites were Simon vs The Homo Sapiens Agenda and A Darker Shade of Magic or Fangirl I´m still waiting for The Upside of Unrequited to arrive (Why is Argentina so far away from BookDepository 😞 ) Love your videos btw

[@abbyschuster9669]

I think my favorites were Letters to the Lost and Percy Jackson and the Olympians also Hero's of Olympus☺

[@drheatherreads6328]

My favourite had to be the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo! I was hooked! 🙌🏻 I really wanna start reading Jane Austen but I have no idea which one to start with! 🤔 Anyone have any recs??

[@priscilladias8544]

I suggest you: Mauler by Shawn Williamson. It is so amazing my students in Brazil were crazy about the story of thilacine and it´s end. I am telling about it to everybody. It is a great novel for nature´s lovers.

[@charlottelupin692]

I read a lot of Cassie Clare this summer so I honestly can't decide a favourite but I really enjoyed Geekerella, One of us is lying and so many more.
