Recognized the Lunar Chronicles and Red Queen immediately XD For me, Scarlet and Cinder were better than Cress because I felt that the length of Cress made it drag on. Still, it's a fantastic series. Enjoy!
I would have to say that Cress is my favorite of the series so far. The story was so immersive and exciting. Marissa Meyer made something (I won't say what) mundane into something completely exciting and wonderful!
I guessed the Lunar Chronicles but none of the others. I am completely obsessed with that series right now. I've put off reading Cress and Fairest because I am not ready to accept the wait for Winter...BAH!
I'm so glad that you love the Lunar Chronicles!! It's my favorite series!! Once you read them all we can just talk about how amazing they are! And I definitely think Cress is my favorite.
I also just read Cinder back in January. I'm currently reading Scarlet. And I just bought Cress last weekend, and I bought Fairest today. So, here's to us! Completing our collections of the Lunar Chronicles! :D
Haha! I can't believe that you also had the same connection of "Cinder" and "Timber" :D I sing it all the time when I think about "Cinder" and I've just finished it today, so "Scarlet" - here I come! :D As for "Night Film" I thought it was really awesome - really creepy, really scary, and very urban (an amazing atmosphere of the city).
I'm so glad you love Cinder!! I'm currently reading Cress and just loving it. My cousin is borrowing Fairest from me so I'll be reading it shortly afterward! Let us know if your excited for Winter once you get there!
I'm glad you're committing to The Lunar Chronicles! I love this series so much! It's one of the best series I've ever read! Cress is definitely my favorite, although I have a special place for Cinder too. I'm currently reading Fairest and I'm loving it so far! Hope you'll do a review for Scarlet, Cress and Fairest when you finish reading it. I'd love to know what you think about it :)
HAHA oh my gosh... When you asked if we could guess the books facing backwards I THOUGHT the first few looked like some from the Lunar Chronicles (which is also one of my favorite series) .. I can't believe I guessed right! Awesome haul!
I'M FREAKING OUT _SO_ BAD ABOUT THE WSHOS-ANNOUNCEMENT. I absolutely loved the book, I love josh, I love you guys, and this is probably the first time i'll have read the book you guys are reading. I don't care if it'll be in the middle of the night my time, I NEED to join in for the liveshow this time.
So glad to hear that you loved These Broken Stars because I love that book! I hope you like A Thousand Pieces of You, it was my favorite read of January. Also really excited that We Should Hang Out Sometime is the next Booksplosion book! I've been hearing about it and am super intrigued so the readalong might help me pick it up! I'm hosting a Game of Thrones readalong in March soooo, no guarantees that I can read it on time, lol. I need to pace myself. But still excited nonetheless!
Cress was my absolute favorite!!! Also I was somehow able to predict that one of the books was These Broken Stars, and I'm not quite sure how. A Thousand Pieces of You and Red Queen are both amazing, but you should totally read the rest of what we currently have for the Lunar Chronicles!
Great haul :) "Kiss of deception" is wonderful and I also really liked "The Darkest Part of the Forest", it was really unique and downright weird in a good way.
Cress is by far the best in the series but I do have to say that Fairest, although short, really really impacts you, well at least it did for me. Hope you enjoy your books Jesse! :)
I tried to read kiss of deception but just wasn't into it so put it down. Will have to try again. Glad to see you liked cinder. Loved your singing. Great books. Glad to see you again.
I actually just got the Darkest Part of the Forest from the library and I'm pretty excited to give it a go! In my opinion, Cress was my favorite book in the Lunar Chronicles, but I have a feeling Winter will be the best one yet!
I want to read Night Film because it is a mixed media book. I just feel like I would be a real life/darker/older Nancy Drew. It sounds amazing. Also, I'm so excited for you to read The Darkest Part of the Forest. I was obsessed with the book trailer!
Four books you NEED to read: 1. I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore (first book in the Lorien Legacies series) 2. The Book Thief by Markus Zusak (I know you have this) 3. Girl Online by Zoe (Zoella) Sugg 4. Where Things Come Back by John-Corey Whaley (?) 5. The Maze Runner by James Dashner (if you haven't already)
The only book I guessed was Red Queen because of how big and silvery it is. I'm so glad you liked These Broken Stars, I'm in the middle of right now and can't wait for the liveshow!! :)
It's funny because I actually bought a bunch of books this month for the first time in forever. And I'm seeing a lot of booktubers with the same ones! I just ordered These Broken Stars and The Darkest Part of the Forest, so those are on the way. I got Cinder and I'm super excited to read that!! I also just finished Red Queen and LOVED it.
Omg I totally guessed The Lunar Chronicles and Red Queen from their pages!! And you should definitely read the rest of the Lunar Chronicles next!! They are soo amazing!:D
Cress is my favorite so far! I've heard a lot of great things about Red Queen and I really want to get my hands on a copy! I've also been eyeing A Thousand Pieces of You! The cover is absolutely beautiful and I just want it! :)
Read The Lunar Chronicles, they are so amazing and I'd love to see you do a book talk for them. Also, I've been wanting to buy We Should Hang Out Sometime for a while now, and now I have the perfect reason!
I only guess one book but I got it right which was 'These Broken Stars' ahhh the cover is so pretty 😍 Awesome haul Jesse. And yes whenever I sing Timber I tend to replace it with the word 'Cinder' it's just a given.
I love the Lunar Chronicles, especially Cress! I just finished Fairest and it was really good too, but kind of sad because it's about the villain of the story. I really liked The Kiss of Deception and I'm looking forward to the sequel. Loved that Timber reference haha
You need to read The Darkest Part of the Forest when you have a slot of time when you can read it all at once. The book is so awesome and it makes you want more and more.
I JUST finished The Kiss of Deception, and I LOVED it. I wasn't completely mindblown, but only because I accidentally kind of spoiled the ending for myself (hint, do not stalk Sasha's Vine haha). I really loved the writing style, and the characters came across really genuinely! I hope you like it!
Loved this book haul! 💕📚 The only book I could pick out was Red Queen because I also got it last week. Hehe. Have a nice read! All the books seem to be amazing. I would love to get my hands on the Lunar Chronicles. 😄
I need the books you got... like omg ♥ I really need Red Queen, The Kiss Of Deception and The Lunar Cronicles and... JUST EVERYTHING ^^ You singing Timber (aka Cinder) XD. I laughed so hard hahaha. Love the video!
Yes! The Kiss of Deception! It's so wonderful :) One of my favorites of 2014. Really interested to hear your thoughts on Red Queen. I think we'll have similar opinions on it.
I totally NEED The Sleeper and the Spindle. Its so pretttyyy!! I've never read a Neil Gaiman book before, so I need to get on that ASAP. I'm excited to see your opinion on all these books!
I am guessing Red Queen, Darkest Part of the Forest and the Lunar Chronicles (fairest, scarlet and cress) are some of the books... now to watch and see if I am right!
The Kiss of Deception at first also didn't really got me interested at all because I thought it was just all about romance stuff & nothing more.But ever since hearing from you telling the whole summary,you just got me so interested in it:)
I just bought Night Film last month! I'll probably read it sometime this summer. I just love the cover for it! You should read that first and fell me how you like it lol. Love the haircut and congrats on your mention in Teen Vogue!!!
Mindblown... I guessed Scarlet, Cress and Red Queen. When you said that you couldn't do it (the guessing), I thought 'hmm neither can I' Still could guess three of them.. so proud of myself! Great bookhaul by the way, most of them are on my tbr as well!
Im going down im yelling Cinder! Loved this! Have read Cinder and Scarlet and loved them, hoping to read Cres really soon and purchase Fairest! Just such a good series! Great Video, cant wait to hear your thoughts on some of these! Love the end screen!
I suggest you continue on the Lunar chronicles but take your time. Cuz' if you finish fast and have to wait for Winter, you'd die waiting cuz Fairest is not enough! Read other books in between. :D That series is the bomb! :)
Scarlet was my favorite book out of the Luna Chronicles, but I haven't read Cress yet. I think it's one of those series that gets better with each book. I really want to read The Darkest Part of the Forest, mostly because of the cover though.
I love the Kiss of deception so much! It keeps you guessing until the very very end. But there is a cliffhanger so you want to read the next one straight away but it's not out :(
