Iron widow is so amazing anyone who says otherwise is wrong. I firmly believe that.

[@RileyMarie_]

it's a fact.

[@LimitlessMegan]

I believe there's another book coming. The author is also on YT (and I believe TikTok) and they make some awesome content (I love their "translating Chinese names for other countries literally" series). They also played a big part in calling out the debut author who had been one star bombing authors of colour.

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

I am in love with your mushroom cardigan!!!!

[@Shoot4AlarmFire]

There is nothing like a good re-read! Sometimes, though, I have a hard time putting down all the new stuff I am so excited about to pick up those older ones.

[@eri_bot]

hiding a book at a bookstore so other ppl don’t find it is so real

[@komaedacoffee4298]

As a bookseller, I don't know what to say... It's troublesome but genius

[@themusespeakstome4467]

I was just talking to someone today who does the same thing. You are not alone.

[@FashionablyBookish]

Your sweater (and your whole fit) in the first clip is so cute! Scarlet sounds amazing! Immediately added to my TBR.

[@callmecristal]

Getting Iron Widow NOW! I always love all your recs! To hear "best book i ever read" from you... it's an instant pick up! ❤

[@JanAgaton]

didn't know hearing my name/seeing my sprints in your video was in my bingo card today but here we are. thanks for joining that day! 🥰

[@shapotter3]

🔥🔥🔥I loved iron widow so much too. I’ve been waiting for the sequel and can’t wait actually read it

[@RileyMarie_]

I can't wait for the sequel to come out!!

[@Libra_Venus_Reads]

Ok I need to read Iron Widow asap! You made it sound so good & it’s been a minute since I’ve read a book with a poly romance 🔥

[@tomboyz151]

Ok, but tell me how you're giving Helena Bonham Carter vibes from 7:25-7:43?!?! 😮 Absolutely ✨STUNNIN'✨

[@AnaElwynn]

Iron Widow is such a fantastic book! I loved it and I can't wait for the sequel to come out 🔥Hench sounds very interesting, I definitely need to check it out

[@LimitlessMegan]

That's *exactly* how I felt about Crumbs. It looked so good but turned out to have a lot of empty air in it. If you want a witchy and baking graphic novel Doughnuts and Doom is much better.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

"it looks like Gavin just joined" I live to jump scare

[@marytavares520]

Red suits you so much, and that green blouse you were wearing talking about the Wayward children series… chef’s kiss 😘

[@manoeksbooknook]

A graphic novel I recently read that I LOVED was If you'll have me by Eunnie!! It's basically sapphic Hearstopper with a butch lesbian love interest, it was so damn cute

[@whitneywest3538]

Can confirm. Everyone with long hair (any hair) needs that hair product. I out it on while my hair is wet before I dry it and it cuts cuts out so much of the work for the flat iron. And I have wavy hair that doesn’t curl, if that makes sense.

[@theroamingbookworm]

THE MALE RAGE SCENE IN IRON WIDOW IS MY FAVORITE. I need to reread for book 2!

[@bookishbecca]

Still haven’t read past the fifth book in the Wayward Children series and one of my reading goals for this year is to catch up. Also desperately need to finally read Iron Widow.

[@PistachioGold]

Wait I think I remembered a video where you hid a book to buy it some other time 😂😂 can't believe it worked but so happy for you ❤ 5:21 also your parents cared none for your peace 😂 Loki seems so happy tho 🥺🥺🥺 The way you grabbed the bag of cookies 😂😂😂 🔥

[@morganarosana]

🔥🔥🔥 I read Mislaid in parts half-known and that book made me like the previous book more (book 8 was like my least favorite of the series), is very much a book about healing, not only of the main character Antsy, but other characters too. It's so beautiful. Didn't read Iron widow yet because of the release been pushed to 2024, but I think I'm gonna love it too.

[@JanAgaton]

idk how you did it but i think you just convinced me to try the wayward children series once again after disliking the first two books lol

[@nataliesypeck4037]

Was so excited to see you were reading Iron Widow! I just reread it last week and am so excited for book two!

[@SamReadsALittle]

That color wow product is a lifesaver!

[@RileyMarie_]

Yes it’s so good!!!

[@Kairene00]

Your outfits this vlog are so cute! I love that you matched your reads

[@RileyMarie_]

thank you!!!!!

[@RealReaderEmily]

I’ve been screaming about iron widow for almost a year ! It’s so good and underrated

[@paulasalazar2093]

I literally just sprayed color wow all over my hair AS SOON as you mentioned it omg. I use the wavy/curly hair one for air drying my hair!!

[@lovekatie3528]

I'm so glad you are also a purple girlie with the spreadsheet

[@Jane42.]

your mushroom sweater!!!

[@maritzelcastillon1969]

🔥🔥🔥 i was already so excited for Iron Widow 😍 i can’t wait to read it now 🫶🏽

[@ambrelicious04]

The red lipstick and the red shirt looks great on you!

[@peyton07]

i think you introduced me to hench and it became one of my faves! Iron widow was also top 5 that year and ooh now i may need to do a reread before the sequel comes out... great vid, riley!

[@gabbyreads]

After watching this I’m convinced I need that color wow dream coat product, your hair looks stunning!!! 👏 I am here for the hair hacks hahaha

[@manoeksbooknook]

I have been desperately waiting for the sequel for Iron Widow (since it got pushed back multiple times) and now I want ro reread Iron Widow !!!

[@Ms.SpookyNerd]

Great vlog 📚☕⛄❄️

[@ChanelChapters]

“Yes I have cookies on my bed - mind yo business” #relateable

[@virginiafernandes336]

The Historian is AMAZING

[@lexitriesreading]

AHHH I need to fit iron widow somewhere in my tbr. I want to be able to watch the spoiler vlog. 😢

[@babeinlibrary]

I haven’t watched after the plane crash (grey’s). Clearly that’s a traumatic season ending for us all. I just bought Hench in November. Guess this is my reminder to go read

[@RileyMarie_]

I hope you like Hench!

[@bby.kaylamarie]

Same I’m always so sad and can’t start the next season!

[@shawnabelanger7799]

Oh so fun! I’m gonna read Hench with you

[@anikamercier2651]

Such a fun vlog!! 🔥

[@graceannreads]

“Men are sick” just sold me on Iron Widow. Say less babes

[@IzzyRain]

I hope you enjoy 'Scarlet" it sounds so intriguing!

[@RileyMarie_]

Thank you!!!! I can’t wait to read it

[@Showtunediva]

Hench sounds like ScreenSlaver from The Incredibles 2.

[@theaudiobookaficionado]

ok the toy is noisy but loki is so cuuuuute he loves it

[@CourtneyMiller]

Here to beg you to read Don’t want you like a best friend by Emma Alban. Sapphic bridgerton meets the parent trap. Plz read it just trust me on this one bestie

[@RileyMarie_]

I got that book for my birthday so I'm planning to read it soon!

[@Fictionrue]

I love your jumper in the first clip where did you get it?

[@strawberrylime33]

How do people feel about independently published YA? I'm curious if it's much different from the hyped YA books with the beautiful covers?

[@heabooktubes]

I clicked because I LOVE Iron Widow. ♥️♥️♥️

[@mariyajaveedkhan159]

What genre is it?

[@heabooktubes]

@@mariyajaveedkhan159 it’s a historical, sci-fi esque fantasy. Think the first female emperor of China but they have giant mech’s fighting aliens. A la power rangers lol.

[@mariyajaveedkhan159]

@@heabooktubes thank God it's not romance.... But I'm not so historical genre girl either.. Do you think this would make an exception?

[@heabooktubes]

@@mariyajaveedkhan159 there’s romance in it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I don’t think historical would really sway the experience one way or another. The best way to know if you’ll like it is if a queer, disabled woman, bent on revenge taking down the system of oppression immediately intrigues you. It’s got a lot of action and you’re following a trio working together. Interesting world building. But I don’t think the writing is going to work for everyone.

[@sarawithoutanH]

only you could get me to add a YA book to my tbr 🔥

[@RileyMarie_]

That is truly a skill

[@theanswerisbooks]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 yesssss IRON WIDOOWWWWWW

[@Yasmine-op8so]

Hey can you do a review of the book “no need to mention it” I read it the other week and it’s amazing

[@merce_maidcc]

Totally unrelated but your cardigan is seriously cute! 🍄🔥

[@RileyMarie_]

thank you!!!!

[@lilaknitsandreads]

🔥 Maybe I should try again with Iron Widow. I picked it up a year ago or so and wasn’t in the mood for it, but now? 🤔

[@RileyMarie_]

yes please try again!!!!

[@asparagusisreading]

Okay wait Pacific Rim but aliens and revenge killing boys sounds good

McDonald’s?? So disappointing…Free Palestine 🇵🇸

[@RileyMarie_]

I just learned there was a McDonald’s boycott yesterday. It’s possible to give people the benefit of the doubt. I am definitely pro Palestine
