I read these books in august, and I am going to tell you about them. 

Don’t be afraid of seeming negative - books are subjective and you’re absolutely entitled to having and sharing your thoughts on why you dislike them as you do when you love them. There’s no bad books, just readers whose tastes and preferences sometimes don’t align with the books they’ve read❤️

Don’t feel bad for having negative reviews on a book! We all have books we don’t click with and I think it’s great when people like books that others don’t and vice/versa. Love your videos!! 💕

It's honestly refreshing to hear negative reviews sometimes so I don't feel alone in not liking a super hyped book!!

Me literally waiting for her to talk about binding 13 and keeping 13, I am so so happy that you liked it!🥺💓

The prettiest girl ever has just posted , love you destiny 😭❤

It's 1am and I have just been reading for 4 hours. So glad you uploaded so it keeps my motivation to stay awake ♥️

literally screaming with joy to hear you're loving the ACOTAR series! ACOMAF is one of my god-tier all-time favorite books and I'm pushing off the other books in the series because I never want it to end hahah

I was literally just browsing RU-vid thinking “when is des going to post her august rap up” 💕💕

The author of Binding 13 is taking an indefinite leave. When she gave birth to twins one of them did not make it and she said because of that she doesn't enjoy writing as she used to and doesn't know when/if that'll come back. Love her series though and wish her the best❤

i can’t believe you already read the final gannet! i’m so excited to read that!

honestly im going to start reading shatter me once i can check it out at my school library. im really excited! i didn’t like shatter me and unravel me. it wasn’t my fav but i want to finish it because it’s so hyped up. im reading the cruel prince rn. it’s enjoyable. not my fav tho. and yasss you rated a court of mist and fury five stars! ahhh! that’s my fav book in the whole series! it’s amazing!❤️

The binding 13 book series won’t be continued! The author posted an indefinite leave notice a few weeks ago

this is the first wrap up i’ve fully watched. you’re amazing!!

binging your videos recently so i’m very excited for this

This month (august) I've read 21 books! I'm so proud cause usually it's like 4 or 5 books. So yeh I'm happy about that and now I'm gonna watch your video. I'm so excited! (I'm sry if my english is bad. It's not my capital language and I'm pretty sure I made some mistakes)

I have been in a very bad reading slump, like I started reading but also been having so much headaches. I’m gonna try my best to read more this month

don’t feel bad not every book is for someone and now you know,loved the video and i’m so excited for your tbr i need ideas even tho i’m in a slump i haven’t finished my book n i got it in july so i need to read that and ugly love and it ends with us 💕

the author for binding/keeping took an indefinite hiatus from writing, she didn’t let us know when she’s coming back, so we won’t be hearing about the characters for a very long time and might never either :(

nothing feels better then seeing a notification from youtube when you post

Loved it, also your book corner looks so pretty

Just read Binding 13 and I am destroyed. I loved it so much and I can’t wait to get the second. I NEED IT! One of my favorite books I’ve ever read so far. And it’s not that the story was so different than most, except it was such good writing and character development and you could just feel everything. Love love love.

yess fall rec video!! you should do a fall reading vlog like reading thrillers for 24 hours or smth like that 💓💓

LOVE ALL YOUR VIDS DES!!! MY FAVORITE BOOKTUBER!!

I read 1 book this month but it was 5🌟, so a good reading month for me 😅

Omgg I was hoping you'd upload a video today and you did! Yesss mamas, thank you for blessing our feed😭

Bittersweet memories is one of my favorite books of all time! So glad you liked it!

I don't think it's negative to really go into why you don't like a book. I think it's more interesting to be specific on the writing style, characters, plot and what is wrong with them because it's constructive and interesting!

I recently picked up the dead romantics and it’s now on my tbr for September! I’m glad you liked it because we have a similar taste in books so hopefully I’ll like it too!

Thank you for being honest ✨️we need more of that

i don’t think you know how excited i was for this video

I also read the first four books in the acotar series this month and LOVED IT!!! Ugh I never wanted them to end the vibes were immaculate

I had a reading slump for literally 2 months but in August I picked up reading again and read 6 books 🥹 love that August was good for us all

the rhysand message >>>>

This queen finally read some kind of perfect!!

ive also been reading so many bad books this month im so upset 😭😭 and then i kept buying new ones and all of them are written SO small so i can’t read them. don’t worry about being negative

omg destiny i literally said the exact same thing about shatter me. after the 4th book it gets annoying. i dnfed the series even tho i only had the last book left 😃

Des raving about fall. Me going into spring ✨🌼🌷🌸✨

I had the exact same review about the house across the lake I loved it!

It's your channel, you do what's right for you.

My fave video of the month 🥰

Your such a kind hearted person like you shouldn’t have to explain why you didn’t like it in full detail it’s a OPINION it’s not you saying never read this book….

omg I love you and WHERE DID YOU FIND THAT SOME KIND OF PERFECT COVER!?!??!?!?? it is so pretty it hurts

the queen has graced us with a post

What a great reading month you had, Destiny. Love all of your videos. Happy reading in September. I hope you do more reading vlogs or another 24hour reading. Those are so much fun to watch ❤️😊

yayyyy! my friday just got so much better 🤍🫶🏻

ACOWAR is my favorite of the series! Lovedddd it

you literally just make my day everytime i see one of your videos

I read 53 books from July 1- August 31!

I manifested this video i swear. I was constantly searching whether i missed any notification 😁

ahh your reviews of the acotar series is making me so excited to start it!

Finally someone else who doesn’t like the Shatter me series!! I felt like I was the only one!

Try the guest list by Lucy Foley it’s a really good mystery/thriller book

THE VIDEO IVE BEEN WAITING FOR ALL DAYYYYYY

I LOVE THAT TOP SO MUCH OMG

I gave Magnolia Parks and The House Across the Lake the same ratings as you! BJ and Magnolia need to never speak to each other again and get therapists instead 😂 Despite that I'm starting the second book this month lolololol

Also it depends on how big the book is as well when it comes to reading every month

Your hair looks so good in this vid!!

Thank you for being honest! I am always looking for new books and get so frustrated when looking on RU-vid and not finding what I’m looking for. I am hoping we have The same likes. Going to try Your 4 & 5 star books!

you read my whole entire year goal in one month lmao and I'm still 9 books off of my 25 book goal for the year

Luv the drink

I also read better than the movies in august and I loved it! 🥺💕

this girl and her ratings, i love it

The Paris Apartment was 😖 awful. I was disappointed. I totally agree. I thought I was the only one.

don’t be scared of being negative! It would be really boring if every book was 4/5 stars. I look for honesty in my wrap ups so I can get various opinions. I love this wrap up btw! I read better than the movies this month too, liked it but think there’s too much hype!

istg des just seems to get prettier every time i see her

dying to read dead romantics but it’s still preorder in the U.K. until the 30th September 🤪

acotar MY HEART (im currently reading silver flames im about 150 pages in)

So glad you didn’t like the Paris apartment! I read it and gave it 3 stars but honestly looking back it was more like 2 stars lol

Love your videos!!! 🫶🏻💗 What are your tips for reading soooo fast??

That xtina shirt >>>

If I read 1/month im proud of myself

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THISSSSSS DAY = MADE

After reading all of the Acotar series it turned me into a fantasy girl!!! Please go read From Blood and Ash series!!! I just finished the second book and omg the ending on the second book ( A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire) is 🤯…. Seriously go read it!!!

I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VID AHH

I think we all,feel the same sort of shock about love on,the brain like "oh wow she went that far I mean okay "

I personally don’t want to read 20 or 25 books…. Sheesh lol BUT it surely isn’t my job.. thanks for the content, girl!

YES TO THE FALL RECOMMENDATION VIDEO

the best kind of notification 🥳

where is your chair in the background from? Also looks like im picking up some new books!!!

I didn't like 56 Days either. I gave it a good ole college try for the first 100 pages but then had to DNF. Same with The Paris Apartment.

I was awaiting this video! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME AMEN ✝️

for the " better than the movies" has a seconed book called 'better than the prom"

Honestly I tried reading better than the movies and couldn’t get into it 😩😩😩 The duff is my favorite movie so maybe I’ll check it out again

i love this thumbnail

Thank you! You’re the first person who doesn’t love shatter me. Like a agree with most of the other opinions people have but I just DO NOT like the shatter me series

Been waiting for this one🤩🤩

I love you destiny your vid’s are so good

omg where is the pumpkin blanket from its amazing

I’m begging you to do a reading vlog of ACOSF!!!

where did you get the new cover for some kind of perfect! i really want it

Currently reading Better then the movies. If you put it I the context it's just fluffy and fun.

ok I really need to read Better Than The Movies👀

I recently finished 'The poppy war' -LOVED IT! Have you read it??

We all have different tastes, for example I didn't like Credence by Penelope Douglas everyone else loved it.

I was reading Acotar and tiktok spoiled for me who she will end up with 😔😭😭😭😭

fav notification !! 🥰

Oh my goodness hi destiny ily 😘

❤️❤️❤️
