Right?! Same! I had a super rough couple of weeks. My mental health was so low, nothing could grip my attention and I had no motivation for anything. I rewatched the channel for about 2h and it helped a ton!
I only started following you a few months ago but you have become one of my favorite RU-vidrs and I’m SO happy when I get a notification that you posted a new video :) Book rec: Wizards guide to defensive baking by T Kingfisher is what got me into reading again! It’s so cute and cozy. And if you want a fast paced read that you don’t want to out down, wrong place wrong time is good :)
I've been obsessed with your videos lately, love love love the cozy vibes! What is your ultimate cozy game for a rainy day? I've been into potion permit lately!
Your description of bugsnax reminds me of the viva pinata game I used to play when I was a teen on XBox 360. I loved that game - you made a garden which when you reach certain criteria a new pinata animal appears and eventually joins your garden. So cosy and cute.
I recently found you and I’d never really been into gaming but my bf actually left his switch at my house recently and I’ve been playing Spiritfarer nonstop ever since! I’m so glad you introduced me to cozy gaming/hobbies☺️ Love watching your videos!!
I totally get the disappointment after A Court of Frost and Starlight. I low key loved that it was a slice of life kind of vibe but honestly, Silver Flames is SO GOOD. It is the ultimate healing, female friendship, empowerment journey for one of my fave ACOTAR characters. It was everything. It's v smutty if that's something you enjoy but if not, you can probably skip over those parts!
Saw people had already mentioned the antibacterial issues! But as an alternative a topical benzyl peroxide cream will eliminate smells in problem areas (armpits, feet). Just use that in those small areas, make sure to moisturise as that ingredient is quite drying and please don’t put it anywhere near your Vulva! Only really wash that area with water or maybe mild soap, just for all my vulva owners wondering what’s best for those smells! Love these videos and your room is always so cute god I wish I could give my space the same cosy vibe 🥰
Be very very careful with benzoyl peroxide!! It’s typically meant for acne and it can stain your clothes/linens. So be very careful if using this under your arms, etc. as it may stain your shirt
Definitely persevere with the ACOTAR series! ACOFAS was never meant to be a book at all, it was a fun novella SJM wrote for herself, but then released as like a christmas special 😅. A Darker Shade of Magic is a good cosy series too! Or The Starless Sea is incredible! A stand alone book and so magical. It feels like a proper story and ive been tabbing so many beautiful lines of writing 🥰
Book rec: psalm for the wild built. A sweet robot and a tea monk talking about what it means to find meaning without labor? Yes. Post apoc story that’s actually uplifting? Yes. Cozy vibes? Hell yes.
I LOVE your videos and your vibe, you really helped to get me into the cozy lifestyle and gaming, but I really wish you wouldn’t promote Amazon as much, they’re terrible for the environment, they treat their employees badly, and Jeff Bezos has made enough money already, time for small businesses !
If you want a cozy book recommendation, I loved Emily Wilde's Encyclopedia of Faeries! The leads give a very book-Howl and Sophie vibe (which..if you haven't read Howl's Moving Castle, please do. It is one of my favorite books of all time and very different from the movie, so you won't be ruined for the story)
I just got a Costco membership yesterday so your udon rec is perfect! I just ordered the mushies mousepad and cozy gamer thermos from T&T and I'm so excited. Legends and Lattes is the epitomy of a cozy book. I loved it so much I got up early one Sunday, lit candles and got a latte and binged it to the end. Love your content and so excited for your new T&T items!
I love you videos so much. They make me feel safe and relaxed. What's more I love you vibes and since I watch your channel I'm more myself. I love when you talk about things you like because I can see you passion. Now I'm not scared to be passionate about things in front of other people. I've always loved video games, stickers and other things but people around me always told me I was too old for those things. You gave me confidence ti be myself.
"You just trote yourself" lmao! I love a good favorites video, thank you for bringing them back. You better believe I'm trying that dove soap, stinky girls unite!
This was so fun. Im in a letter writing group and I NEED THESE STICKERS!! Also the mushroom light I would put in the bathroom too lol. I need that target romper. It looks luxurious.
So grateful to have found your cozy videos through my best friend. I am playing ooblets since you recommended it and have been enjoying reclaiming cozy time 🎉
Read A Court of Silver Flames!!! I also didn’t like the 4th book but I think it’s intended to be an extra little cozy Christmas novella that isn’t part of the plot. Still… I could’ve done without it. But ACOSF is my favorite of the series! I think Nesta is the most developed character. Another cozy book that I think could get anyone out of a reading slump is The House in the Cerulean Sea. SUCH a cute, engaging, feel good book!
Try reading the Regency Faerie Tales series by Olivia Atwater! It’s like Bridgerton with a really cozy fairytale twist, but the faeries have that kinda dangerous whimsical vibe from classic fairytales. I think you’d love it!
I love all your videos but there's just something about your favorites and vlogs that is just perfect. There're my favorite ! I don't know if you wanted only high fantasy books but I can't not recommend Where the crawdads sing. I've read it a few years and I loved it, I couldn't put it down.
Just in case you read this in time. I know you read Legends & Lattes and the author is doing a Kickstarter selling enamel pins and a signed bookmark. There’s only 2 days left as I’m writing this 😅 so hopefully this helps someone out
I just finished You cant spell Treason without Tea and it was soooo cozy and they have another book afterwards that Im on right now! Similar vibes to legends and lattes. I think you'd love it!
For my best smelling self, I like to use Lume acidified body wash. Combine that with their deodorant and you are smell free for at least 48 hours. I’m all about mushrooms.
You’ve convinced me to try Bug Snax! I have it on my wishlist and ALMOST bought it last time it went on sale. I didn’t get it because I wasn’t totally sold on it and after hearing your review, I have regrets! 😹
Hey Kenn! I'd love to rec Half a Soul as a fun little cozy fantasy romance read. It gave me such big Howl's Moving Castle vibes and to me that is max coziness 💜
Girl please finish ACOTAR yes the novella is not great but the story ends soooo goood, also I’m going to 100% be getting the new stuff you and Alyssa are releasing I’m so exciting 🤎🤎
There is a monthly sticker subscription box called Stickii club that I think you would really love!! And it's REALLY well priced for how much you get :)
Book rec: Kimberly Lemming's Mead Mishaps. Not perfect, but cosy adventure, romance, they were fun! Both female mains are naturally curlies. Which brings me to may _actual_ comment. Any chance you'd ever talk about what stylers you use in your hair? Your curls are amazing.
I actually use Chai tea bags when brewing or microwaving my coffee. I prefer Bigelow vanilla chai because it doesn't taste like cloves. You barely taste the tea because the spice overpowers it. The little I taste blends well.
For books: Anything TJ Klune. Queer author with queer characters and adorable cozy stories that are so enchanting. Those are the books I read when I just need to wrapped up in a nice blanket.
Can you do an animal crossing island tour video? That would be great! Also I really wanna try that game you recommended I think it’s so cute! I love cozy games/hobbies there so fun and I’m so glad I found your channel a year ago 🥰
HIII KENNEDY, I was wondering were you got your pillows. I have been on the hunt for some nice oversized pillows I would really appreciate it if you let me know ! I also wanted to let you know that I love your Videos so much! They have truly impacted my life personally with just feeling more safe in myself so I thank you ❤
if you like fantasy books Daughter of the Moons Goddess is SO good! I couldn't put it down and felt a bit lost after I finished it. Its a Duology so there's only 2 books so its not a huge commitment either! 10/10 would highly recommend!
I bought bugsnax on sale because of your recommendation but don't like it so far. I absolutely hate first person perspective and the controls not intuitive.
Thx again another cute cozy, fun video, I love when you suggest things, I’ve tried coloring books, shower scrub by Ives & now I’ll try the dove body wash…you like bug snax game make so much since, 😜thx again byeeeee
Okay at Costco they have these dark chocolate sea salt caramels and they are to die for. So good you want to eat the whole container but so rich you won’t. I’m sorry and you’re welcome 😂
Book rec: I used to read a lot before college…and adulthood…lmao *2008* BUT…Chuck Palahniuk is an excellent author. He wrote Fight Club (really showing my age there I just realized) and apparently there are many books he’s written since I was up on it including numerous sequels to fight club which I’m sure have just gotten even better. My fav was Invisible Monsters and also really enjoyed Choke. I also read fight club and fight club 2 but apparently there’s many sequels now. Warning: I remember him being graphic and sexual, so if you’re not into that maybe not
A court of frost and starlight is just a cute novella to act as an epilogue for Feyre's story and a bit of intro to the next phase of the story. It makes me sad that there's so much hate for such a small book. Silver flames is a lot of people's favourite book in the series because they can relate to Nesta's mental health journey and it's back to what the other books are like but spicier.
I loved the concept of a slice of life novella but the writing quality felt worse to me:( And the character focus/development fell kinda flat. I’ll eventually read the last one! I think I just need time to miss the characters lolol
for book recommendations any book by V. E. Schwab! also House in the cerulean sea by tj klune (and under the whispering door by him!) HitCS is such a wholesome read!
Hey K, I loved this video. Thank you so much for all of the warm and cozy vibes, I’ve seen so many things I want to try! I was wondering if you’ve heard of Lonesome Village? Looks super cozy and cute so check it out! Also have you played the new reboot of Oregon Trail? Keep making this delightful content ❤
ACOF&S is the Christmas special!! ACOSF is SO GOOD (unless u cannot STAND nesta and don't care about her at all lol). i didn't ~love~ nesta and was not looking forward to reading it but i really enjoyed getting to understand her better and now it's my second favorite book of the series behind ACOMAF. i also read legends & lattes in February and thought it was super cozy. i loved the details about the baking and coffee so much- i wish there was more to the story BUT i also liked that it was a nice break from the really intense fantasy novels I'm used to 😂🤍
I love dove antibacterial body wash! I sweat, alot, because I'm a housekeeper at a nursing and rehab facility. I've forgotten to put on deodorant (I also use Dove brand deodorant too)... and I go hard at work for 6 hours straight, and I still won't smell at all. It really is amazing stuff ❤
Book Rec: It's YA but as a Middle School teacher who doesn't often love reading YA things in my free time, I have DEVOURED them all: The Caravel series by Stephanie Gerber. Also - I'm a recent follower of your channel and love your content! Thank you!
Omgggg K! I just bought legends and lattes after playing coffee talk . It was reccomended to me bc it is supposedly similar to that game . Can’t wait to see what you think
i always lose my stitch markers while i'm crocheting in bed so i think i'm going to have to try that bed caddy!! also next time you're in the mood for a quick fantasy read try piranesi by susanna clarke, it's around 250 pages and one of my fave books of all time. it's best not to know too much about it going into it and just letting the story unfold as you read but i can't recommend it enough!!!
i’ve been surfing youtube for years. this channel, as of yesterday, immediately became my safe haven. also fyi: you are genuinely the prettiest person i have ever seen
