[@obiwankenobiiiiii]

I would love to be in a class where Des talks about books the whole time 😍

[@ChemicalPenguinn]

That would be one interesting class!

[@yourfavvperson]

ugh a literal dream

[@Sof_rha]

Omg same!

[@ves09]

Omg yes pls🙏

[@justalilnugget]

Yes imagine if she was your substitute teacher for school

[@ellaesther2007]

You should totally do reading thrillers for a week to knock some of these books off the TBR.

[@madisong881]

A 5-6 hour video from des on acotar?! i will turn that into a full premiere with popcorn and everything i am READY

[@NovasLitLibrary]

Girl, i’ve been on a book buying ban for months & i live vicariously through you buying books so if you wanna break your ban, you go right ahead, im not stopping you, Des!! 🫡

[@skyethorne4568]

having an ever-growing nightstand tbr is so real. right now I have 8 on mine and im several chapters into 5 of them 💀

[@camillaemily]

when destiny posts my day is complete

[@belladevine2008]

So relatable

[@SunsetBrooke]

Ye

[@jamirthestreamer7420]

Literally everytime Im in a book slump i just watch one of your videos and literally makes me keep reading

[@megamoneyDo]

I just wanna say that I am grieving the loss of a very close loved one. And I have been so thankful for your videos because they are helping me relax and forget for a few minutes. Thank you.

[@Grace-s]

i'm sorry for your loss ❤️ take it easy!!

[@whatsdesreading]

i hope you’re doing well love, i am pushing peace your way 🩷

[@mateeaelenaalexandru]

My first Fredrik Backman was A man called Ove and I really enjoyed it. I am so excited for you to read it. And I also can't wait for you to try Wrong place, wrong time because it's been on my tbr for a while.

[@7laurseven7]

Tbh it may help to do an unhauling, you may not care having a ton of unread books, but if there are any you either dont think youll read/will but probably wont enjoy then it helps me to do unhauling to keep books that i want on my tbr

[@martynanowak9108]

"a man called ove" broke my heart and then put it together again

[@leep.9808]

radio silence is LITERALLY the best book i have ever read. you don't understand. if you've ever had a complicated friendship that takes over your soul or been the "gifted kid" READ THIS GODDAMN BOOK YOUR LIFE WILL BE CHANGED FOREVER!!!

[@lilybrowning4862]

Omg radio silence is so damn good and kinda relatable in some ways about pressures of education and university. A good read :)

[@violetsgamingunicorn396]

I literally SCREAMED when she picked up radio silence I LOVE ALICE OSEMAN!!!!

[@mn3330]

Des, anytime you ask what you should do (like if you should put acosf in the acotar video) I want you to know - do whatever you feel. we’ll watch and love anyway

[@HarlowRose]

I'm not sure if anyone has pointed this out yet or not but that is actually not the last book in the Naturals series! There is an e-novella as well!

[@mikaylabrawner8573]

I would a 100% watch a 6 hr video of you rereading ACOTAR. i’m literally obsessed…. also i would love to see your reaction to ACOSF because its one of my favorites from the series. i appreciate you, watching this made my day💕

[@l.bsaint722]

It would be soooooo much fun if you did a video counting how many books of your physical TBR you read during your book buying ban!! So you can see if it was actually worth it and if it worked or not! Love your videos ❤❤

[@PairEyewear]

We LOVE personality glasses! 🫶 ALL of them looked amazing on you!

[@avab7118]

Destiny you need to read the Beartown series! It was so entertaining and his writing made me so connected to the characters.

[@squidwardtentacles7144]

I love the Beartown Series! I just finished it this summer and I watched the show! It was great!

[@scarletstevens]

I do the SAME EXACT THING!! Load books up on my nightstand that I want to read sooner than my other stacks haha! 💯

[@ashleythaxton3638]

The movie a man called Otto was so heart wrenchingly moving and sad. Me and my husband were crying. I can’t wait to hear about the book

[@ParmidaPormehr]

A man called ove is such a wholesome and heartwarming read :) Hope you enjoy it

[@lyricsreads]

literally the PERFECT way to start the new week❤️

[@emilielouderback7752]

YOU HAVE HAD THE TURN OF THE KEY ON YOUR PHYSICAL TBR FOR SO LONG NOW, AND IT IS SO SO SO GOOD DES. PLEASE READ IT SOON PLEASE. THRILLER READING VLOG. IT'S A 6 STAR READ FOR ME!!!!

[@AfraMehdi]

omg des you should totally do a "7 thrillers in 7 days". I'D EAT THAT SHIT UP

[@FictionAddictions]

The Inmate is a good thriller! We read it for our Freida McFadden reading vlog. Also, The Only One Left by Riley Sager is SO good! My favorite book of his so far! I felt like The Only One Left has a totally different vibe than his other books, in a good way!

[@ElinWinblad]

Was it better than house across the Kate cause that was missing some plot points

[@FictionAddictions]

@@ElinWinblad I have not read House Across the Lake, but I didn't find any missing plot points in The Only One Left. I think the book had a fantastic ending and all my questions were answered.

[@stephaniedunham4104]

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who does this with my books. I’m always putting books on my nightstand.

[@Sof_rha]

I clicked the notification SO fast lol. I also have a nightstand tbr was and I have like 10 or more on it at all times😂 ilysm Des❤

[@EllaNoglo]

The cellar is my favorite book of all time!! Literally my whole family is begging to read that book because I’m the only one who has the book in the house…I love this book and it’s my favorite!! I rated it 12 out of 5 stars!!

[@izzylabounty]

Wow I agree I loved it the writing was perfect one of my favorite books ever I can’t wait until she actually reads the cellar I want to know what she thinks wow Ella you have such a beautiful book taste!

[@EllaNoglo]

Thanks

[@jennasorenson1767]

I vote you include Silver Flames!

[@aimee8135]

Radio Silence was such a fantastic book that I read right before I started college, and it was just so perfect 🫶🏻

[@foofeuh]

miss girl has been pumping out the content! love it

[@dominiquemcmillian7059]

i just read a flicker in the dark! i was about to DNF it when it started to get good! I thought it was pretty slow in the beginning BUT the story got really good! I would also add a TW to the book which I was not expecting. TW: mental health, self harm !

[@MyLocsareREAL]

You will love “A Flicker in the Dark” I read it in two 2 days which is Super Quick for me 🤷🏾‍♀️💕

[@Kelvin0815]

Can you do a Reading Thrillers for a Week video with the Thrillers on your TBR?

[@mckaylabrock]

you should do a vlog where you read “a man called ove” and then watch the movie and compare and contrast, say what you liked and didn’t like etc

[@mariaruiz8820]

I’d totally want to get sent to Ms. Sidwell’s and talk about books all day long!!!

[@aliyahpotts]

des, you came through with the timing!!! taking off my acrylics today and now i have entertainment😂

[@emmalouxx]

I got the Afterlight version of Forget Me Not. So excited to read it, but first I have to read Fourth Wing, Divine Rivals, and the entire Throne of Glass series! 😅

[@joymitchell9072]

A Man Called Ove is an awesome book! It's prounced Ooh-veh. 😊❤

[@mariaduda5747]

radio silence is one of my favorite books

[@EssentiallyBooked]

I’ve never bawled as hard as a book as I have in Ove. It’s so wholesome!

[@JuliaRegnell]

Omg same! It crushed me, but in the best way possible😭

[@elizabethrichie6231]

absolutely loved a man called Ove. Reading it the second time was even better. BALLED my eyes out, 5/5

[@nadiyakhan3215]

Girl, I have been having a reading slump for two days, but watching your videos makes me wanna read again!

[@mandinicole]

The cellar is what started my reading obsession. ITS SO GOOD

[@kathleenmulvihill7801]

“Literally “ and “genuinely “ equals a happy Destiny 🎉❤Love to see you happy!! 🥰

[@AnnaBea]

I am excited for you to read quite literally every book on this TBR

[@justmartine]

Radio Silence is one of my favorite books ever. Worth the read fr

[@annacaforio5262]

The Cellar by Natasha Preston started my obsession with Natasha Preston/April Henry! The book is pretty dark but UGH the writing!! Both are very similar authors. I LOVE their work. I hope you enjoy it!

[@bedazzledboo]

Just a random fact about the title of the book Dating Dr. Dil, so the word "Dil" literally means "heart" in Hindi. I don't know anything about the book or the plot cause I haven't read it (even though I can gauge the plot from the title hahaha) but yeah considering it is from an Indian author it might be that his name is literally heart or he is a heart specialist or Idk but yeah just thought of mentioning it 😅 On a side note, I really love your videos and all your content. 😍😍

[@caityemirzian4577]

I have not stopped thinking about city of girls since I read it last may!

[@IPerez87]

Hi Des! I started reading thrillers in between romance books just as a pallette cleanser and its working for me so that could work for you as well 😊 I enjoyed The Housemaid by Frida Mcfadden and Riley Sager's Final Girls and I just picked up The House Across the Lake 😁✌🏻 Blessings!

[@shelbyskeen5151]

Nightstand books are a thing! Thank you for bringing awarenesss to this 😂

[@han_a_mania]

I read Ove last week and it’s the best book I read this year. My heart ❤️❤️❤️

[@ellenstewart301]

Beartown is sooo good! I still have the 3rd one to read but I have to emotionally prepare. I want to read the rest of his books. I've read Anxious People and And Every Morning The Way Home Gets Longer (really emotional). I thought a Flicker in the Dark was verrry predictable.

[@squidwardtentacles7144]

Love Fredrik Backman! Can't wait to read more from him. And I agree with you. I found "A Flicker in the Dark" to be predictable too.

[@caitlinjolly3332]

The first video I saw of yours was an older video and you talked about pair eyewear and i got a pair for blue light only and im already obsessed. Had them for about two weeks now

[@elizabethortega1902]

I did not expect the music at the end and it was a sweet little surprise i started grooving to it

[@lizzie8974]

i’ve been loving your videos recently! this summer was really hard as i went through a falling out with friends that really unmotivated me to read. But you’ve motivated me to start reading again! thank you ❤❤❤❤

[@kianalikesbooks]

desss PLS make your acotar reread LONGGGGG bestie.. i’m so excited for it😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏

[@Samscozybooknook]

I’m reading the cellar right now! I got 200 pages in and would have finished in one sitting if I didn’t have to go to work 😂😂 it’s so good! Now I need all her books immediately

[@teethtown8159]

I would love to be in a class where you just talk about books. That would be the best thing ever

[@floral-smoke]

I have been finishing Freida McFadden in 1 day. The Locked Door was great, the Perfect Son was great. highly recommend

[@olimpiart]

I named my cat Ove because of that book. Even when he was small he looked like an old man, so it fits him very well👨‍🦳

[@yourfavvperson]

i would love school if i had a class where you talk about books to us

[@squishybear8286]

The Cellar and The Inmate are both so good! I read The Inmate in one sitting and read The Cellar over 2-3 days

[@panicfvx]

I’ve started putting books that I have in my tbr on a little shelf above all my unread books so they are constantly staring at me and I won’t forget I have to read them😂 my tbr isn’t too big (20-30) and so they’re all facing me at all times 💀

[@maryannsulic1174]

Wrong Place, Wrong Time is enthralling. Loved it.

[@anjaleejayasooriya208]

Currently reading ACOWAR ☺ Do the "Nesta"' one separately so if one decide to read it later there wont be spoilers.And thank you for al the videos you make my day better💜

[@lindsaynicole4812]

I do the same thing on my nightstand!!! And I have a backup on my dresser as well! I have book piles everywhere!

[@ingridbakka]

Radio Silence is so good!!! You should definitely read it soon!

[@libbysreadingcorner9564]

Love it when you post, Good luck on your TBR

[@chloecook7949]

i was on a cruise for five days and missed so much content 😭 it’s good and bad cause now i have so much to binge lol

[@Showtunediva]

9:25 This book is fantastic. The movie is one of Tom Hanks’s best performances.

[@dairenys]

I read a flicker in the dark and absolutely loved it!! Can't wait to see your review of it

[@Aubrey_Marie]

Those glasses fit you perfectly! I need a pair like them. 💕

[@PairEyewear]

We agree! :)

[@minnttzz]

[@leahtison7082]

[@smileyharper]

Literally picking my tbr right now!! From my TBR jar that is but 🎉

[@JulEnglefaris]

I LOVE The Turn of the Key 🗝️

[@MAXRC0X]

"Reading thrillers for a week" video coming soon???

[@CarlyUTube]

That sneaker collection is admirable❤

[@ginnyluv4601]

I totally recommend reading from blood and ash series! ilyyyy❤

[@passmethatbook]

Your nightstand books look small compared to my one hundred plus pile 😆. I'd have the table buried!

[@Xx_Obsidian_Tears_xX]

the cellar is gonna FEEL like a wattpad book. its really good tho

[@cosyreadingclub]

please read all these thrillers and vlog it !!! so many are on my tbr too

[@madisonefaw6295]

[@camillecreps]

Alice Oseman is my FAV author!

[@taylorsversion1433]

PLEASE MAKE THE ACOTAR VIDEO THAT LONG I WOULD EAT IT UP💗💗💗

[@naomisteenstratoussaint]

The part where you talked about being a teacher, I am aaaactually sitting down with my phone propped up higher so yeah I am a student rn 😂😭

[@rebeckaalmgren4719]

I love seeing people read Fredrik Backman, he's a swedish author and we love him. A man called Ove has been a movie for a few years but a swedish one!

[@aracelinavarro-barragan5456]

I love how Des has a book nightstand meanwhile my nightstand is a bookshelf

[@lilianamariatomaz]

I finished The Inmate a couple of days ago, it was a 3 star for me. It started off great and it was a good story...until the last 10%-20% of the book. But I'd love to see what you think! I am reading Wrong Place, Wrong Time because someone recommended it to me and I'm almost halfway in, loving it!

[@daisyfuller9426]

i absolutely loved radio silence ❤

[@blakedoeslife]

The “be honesttt” killed me

[@tiffanieleighann]

natasha preston books are AMAZING!! I read the lake and you will be mine by her and let me say i was SHOCKED bc like you i thought since it was ya it wouldn’t be too crazy but wow sm happens in them!! literally one of my fav authors fs!

[@dianaisme]

I love when Des posts!!!😍

[@angylcantread]

A Man Called Ove is so good!! be prepared to cry though lol

[@justletisha]

Destiny realising Hello Stranger has love triangle is literally me when I found out too 😂 I hate love triangle but I'm gonna give that book a try

[@maryannsulic1174]

You're in for a surprise.
