Awesome vlog ‼️💯 I have just read Cinder and I loved that book and can’t wait to continue the series. On the other I am finishing the Never After series and Twisted Love series and i don’t mind smut but these series’ are just smut and curse words and zero plot and no character development. Like I can’t relate to any of the characters and I don’t remember why the characters are important. What is the hype with these types of books is just the smut ? I am literally running back to YA and middle grade books because atleast the characters are so much well defined.

Besides the content of your videos which I always love, I want to thank you for how accessible they are to wonky attention spans. So many youtubers these days don't even bother with subtitles, and some even put automatic subtitles as the more polished ones and they always suck!! But you take the time to either write or have someone else write them, AND the fact that you put the name of the book you're currently talking about up in the corner helps me immensely. So many times I just forget what someone is talking about halfway through, and having that little help to go back to is awesome. Keep it up! :)

I listened to icebreaker on BookBeat without knowing too much about it and let’s just say that listening to the smutty scenes whilst out and about made me cringe so hard, especially because there were so many and they were quite repetitive. I wish I could have skimmed over them but because it was an audiobook I was forced to listen to every. single. word. The one positive thing is that there are two narrators so it’s always clear what character’s perspective the current chapter is in.

There's a book by Janette Rallison called 'My Unfair Godmother' where the main characters accidentally time travel back to the medieval period and get caught up in the Rumpelstiltskin fairytale. It's been a long time since i read it, but I remember it being a very short, funny and sweet read. And there's absolutely no pregnancy depiction either. You could give it a try if you want to! It's a part of a trilogy called 'My Fair Godmother' and I enjoyed all 3 books, but they can be read as standalones too.

Would love it if you would cover some of Kate Elliott's work! My personal favorite is her _Crown of Stars_ series, but if you're not looking for a 7-book, 600-ish pages per book odyssey, might I suggest her _Crossroads_ trilogy, or her new space opera series, _The Sun Chronicles_ (still in progress)? Her _Jaran_ series is her first and also quite good where modern space meets low-tech warrior tribes; this is also where we first meet the Chapalli, where if you continue to read Kate's books, you'll see them again and again under localized names (Kapelli, etc. depending on the region of space you're visiting this time) which I think is really cool.

Love you Cari!! 💗💗💗💗 (Btw out of the hundreds of western influencers I follow, you're the only one who posted anything in support of Palestine, and I love you for that.) Ps, I read The girl who fell beneath the sea because of you, and omg I loved it, also I bought As Long As The Lemon Trees Grow because of you too lol, can't wait to read it!!

Omg YES I'm so excited that you're reading the Murderbot Diaries!! Fyi there is one full length novel but the rest are novellas. There's actually a new novella coming out this November too!

Idk what your opinion on spinning silver is but it's the best retelling of rumpelstiltskin I've personally read (which is saying nothing bc it's the only retelling of it I've read lol). It's minor on the romance aspect and there's no pregnancy involved either :')

For some reason i could NOT get into spinning silver 😭 i should give it another try some day though!!

Also like there's a lot of missed potential in turning Rumpelstiltskin into a thriller/mystery fantasy type of book idk. Finding their name? The power names have in traditional fae lore? Being accused of turning straw into gold? Like a guy smuggling humans under the guise that they turn straw into gold ans there's nobody who can figure out who he is... I wish I could regurgitate my thoughts but it's a little hard to put into words wheeze

@caricanread that's fair! It gets really slow at points and the different povs sometimes didn't mesh well together until I read it a couple more times,, also the chemistry between the main couple didn't really hit until the 75% mark. But I'm a sucker for that ending lol

Omg I thought I heard wrong but theres a quite popular webtoon which sounds exactly like Fair Rosaline but she was left with her and romeos son after he left her for juliet and she goes on with that, although I think it does have more romance. Oh she's an adult! Not a child with a son 💀😭
