Riley is nice 364 days of the year. Source: I’m her lawyer

@mjllw2000 6 месяцев назад

This entire video is hilarious but I was cackling at you hating iron flame so much that fourth wing isn’t a favourite anymore. 😂

@RileyMarie_ 6 месяцев назад

My hate for it grows everyday

@losermillie 6 месяцев назад

i heard the same thing from 5 separate people now, i cannot believe how awful it must have been to do this to so many people 🤣

@GavinReadsItAll 6 месяцев назад

I’m signing the petition for mean Riley Marie to come out more, FREE HER

@RileyMarie_ 6 месяцев назад

I keep her in the basement otherwise she gets too powerful

@YW2324 3 месяца назад

Lol hehe 😊

@secret_badass 6 месяцев назад

I love mean Riley. I think she deserves more than just one day per year 😆

“If you have one hater, it is me. If you have no haters, I am dead” 😂😂

@smurfette01 6 месяцев назад

The Alone With You In The Ether rant was perfection 😂. I felt the same way!

@EmJae 6 месяцев назад

I think Mean Riley deserves to come out and play more than one day a year.

@taylorgayhart9497 6 месяцев назад

I honestly only have one bad book this year, and that’s Fourth Wing. Edit: 13:13 🤣🤣🤣 I’m sorry for your pain but thank you for validating my decision to DNF the series!

@morganarosana 6 месяцев назад

Yeah I'm dnfing the series too because of this video lmao Tbh I was thinking to dnf way before because of the bad reviews, authors political opinions... The video was just the last nail in the coffin ⚰️

@ChemicalPenguinn 6 месяцев назад

How To Sell A Haunted House made me almost laugh, which is not what I want from a horror book 😂

@Laura_Reads 6 месяцев назад

Me too, but I love that in a horror book!! I just want to be entertained with horror. Love hearing all the different perspectives though!

@gabbyreads 6 месяцев назад

“I am nice 364 days out of the year” hahaha 😂 100% agree with everything you said about How To Sell a Haunted House, so much wasted potential 😭 and I agree, Midnight is the Darkest Hour was so bad 😢 such a disappointment!!

@RileyMarie_ 6 месяцев назад

I was SO disappointed by both of those cause I love those authors so much. What a bummer

@laurynw.5864 6 месяцев назад

cracking up at "I was die, cry, hating" lmao

@adport1 6 месяцев назад

“And it turned out, I was born to be a hater” Video just started and I’m already hollering 😂😂

@inasmjauhari 6 месяцев назад

OMG I was soo ready for this video and you definitely don't dissapoint. I'm sorry for you but I love your rant videos. Love youuu

@octaviag.1147 6 месяцев назад

I hated The Writing Retreat too! Was confused that people liked it

@WickedScorpio 6 месяцев назад

Lol "im so quirky and crazy" is exactly how i felt like maeve fly read too. It felt so fake and contrived.

@unhingedwoman 6 месяцев назад

Lol I have been WAITING for you to roast Iron Flame. Thank you for delivering 😁

@kamrynchristine3302 6 месяцев назад

I love your energy this is the best video haha

@jkpiowa 6 месяцев назад

What you said about Alone with You is pretty much word for word my review of Atlas Six 😅.

@ChelseyK919 6 месяцев назад

You’re not alone in the Writing Retreat. Hated that book so much!

@Ms.SpookyNerd 6 месяцев назад

Happy holidays! Hope you find more greater books in 2024. ☕📚⛄❄️🎉🥂

@lfrizz 6 месяцев назад

I so agree about olivie blake’s writing what you said was exactly my feelings about atlas six!!! also unrelated but what lip product are you wearing in this because it looks amazing!!

@RileyMarie_ 6 месяцев назад

its the Tarte Maracuja Juicy Lip Balm

@carahamelie 6 месяцев назад

I read the short story collection by the author that wrote tender is the flesh, and it was the only book I gave one star. 😬

@carly1628 6 месяцев назад

I can’t believe you nearly didn’t grace us with this hilarious video. You deserve to be mean 1 day of the year cause this video was 10/10 Also lowkey was so disappointed with midnight is the darkest hour. Loved her other thrillers so much. This book was a snooze fest

@opalthegembookreviews 6 месяцев назад

I choked on my coffee when you brought up the puppet 🤣🤣🤣 I haven’t read this but all I could picture was that stupid “horror” movie the hole 🤣🤣 with the puppet end scene

@ErinMegan 6 месяцев назад

You’re so real for including Maeve Fly and How to Sell a Haunted House!! I was soooo not interested in Maeve at all. Also, hard agree about the puppet aspect. It was too silly goofy, not scary at all. 😭

@Showtunediva Месяц назад

I completely agree about Sister Maiden Monster & Iron Flame Riley.

@story.struck 5 месяцев назад

Oh my god mean Riley is hilarious 😂 go off, girlie!

@necholejacobs6195 6 месяцев назад

I loved this haha💙

@millymollymrst3537 6 месяцев назад

Loved this😅

@PistachioGold 6 месяцев назад

'I was Die, Cry, Hating' needs to be merch in some shape or form 😂😂😂😂 14:56 the perfect gatekeep gaslight girlboss ❤❤❤❤ 99.99% nice 😂😂

@taylorgayhart9497 6 месяцев назад

12:38 I’m sorry… WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?

@sereneadair4941 6 месяцев назад

I also hated the writing retreat and so did my book club

@seeliequeen 6 месяцев назад

You aren’t alone with the writing retreat. I dnfed it. I couldn’t do it. Lol

@JessLuvnNicky 6 месяцев назад

I agree with you on Finlay Donovan!. I really enjoyed the first book, second was ok.. and I couldnt even finish the third.. like I didnt even care at 70% I called it quits!

@Laura_Reads 6 месяцев назад

Oh man, I LOVED Pupkin. Lol 😅😂 The campy horror is what I love about Hendrix, and I laughed out loud more than once reading How To Sell A Haunted House! It was a five star for me, but I can totally see how it’s not for everyone. I don’t think I can handle gross/body horror, so I haven’t picked any of those up. Farts and butts. Lol 😆 I’m dying. Love your energy. Thanks for this list!

@MelLenoreReads 6 месяцев назад

HAHAHAHAA This was great. I feel you on how to sell a haunted house

@RivetingReads 6 месяцев назад

Your sweater is so so so cute!

@RivetingReads 6 месяцев назад

I knew that The Fisherman would be on this list lmfaooo

@RivetingReads 6 месяцев назад

You are notttt alone with The Writing Retreat I really didn't like it either!

@RivetingReads 6 месяцев назад

I did not enjoy What Lies in the Woods at alllll

@theaudiobookaficionado 6 месяцев назад

I can't trust this list because How to Sell a Haunted House was my #1 favorite book of the year 😂 I love clowns I love puppets, Pupkin is my king

@Laura_Reads 6 месяцев назад

Saaaaammmmme!!!! 🎉 Long live poor little Pupkin. Lol 😂

@RileyMarie_ 6 месяцев назад

Did you also listen to the audiobook?? Cause that voice was too much for me lol

@theaudiobookaficionado 6 месяцев назад

@@RileyMarie_ yes! my friends and I listened to the audiobook and loved it and now we frequently do the Pupkin voice and quote the book at each other. High camp, loved it

@IzzyRain 6 месяцев назад

I’m glad I never started Finlay Donovan because that would stress me out 😂

@cherylNA 6 месяцев назад

“Throw it in a wood chipper”😂😂

@taylorvardy633 6 месяцев назад

Yes to everything you said about iron flame. It was so so so so so so bad.

@AlwaysInStock 6 месяцев назад

I'm so glad that you felt the exact same way about We Need to Do Something because DUDE. I should've DNFed it as soon as all the fart jokes started.

@Sarah.reads.sometimes 6 месяцев назад

I tried reading the 2nd Finlay Donovan book after finishing the 1st earlier this year & DNFed. I just couldn’t 😅 Big ouch about Iron Flame being so bad you’re taking Fourth Wing off of your favorites 😢 I just started Iron Flame & I’m so scared, especially since I’m enjoying it so far 😅😖 Oh, and I DNFed We Need to Do Something because that dad was just too much 😠

@caprisbookisland 5 месяцев назад

“Break up or DIE” I need on a shirt 😂

@kimberlysreads 6 месяцев назад

Loved your rants and agree with Iron Flame. I loved Fourth Wing (flaws and all)...and I was so so excited for Iron Flame and was so disappointed. I keep seeing everyone posting about their shock at the end I get FOMO. I called one of the main twists like way before, so there wasn't that shock factor for me. Such a let down 😢

@Anna2187_ 6 месяцев назад

I watched this video in anticipation of the iron flame rant 😂

@kristenchumley1421 6 месяцев назад

The Writing Retreat was my worst book of the year. I side eye anyone who gave that waste of trees 5 stars. LOL

@rysreadingcorner 6 месяцев назад

I didn’t like the writing retreat either!

@JanAgaton 6 месяцев назад

NOT MAEVE FLYYYY HAHHA that one's in my top 10 for sure so i almost wanna read your worst books 'cause we have such opposite tastes sometimes but i was also highly disappointed by how to sell a haunted house & tender is the flesh

@RileyMarie_ 6 месяцев назад

honestly you would probably like Sister Maiden Monster if you haven't read that one yet. It had Maeve Fly vibes for sure

@JanAgaton 6 месяцев назад

@RileyMarie_ i got sent that one a whiiile ago & keep forgetting about it omg I'll def prioritize it then!

@The_Reading_Wren 6 месяцев назад

Feisty Riley might be my new favourite Riley

@anthropomorphicpeanut6160 6 месяцев назад

I've only given 1 star to 4 books this year!

@contrapasso5456 6 месяцев назад

Yessss about The Writing Retreat! It’s just very poorly written. And the story within a story elements were so bad.

@horror_queen35 6 месяцев назад

Thank you! I did NOT understand all the love for How to Sell A Haunted House. I DNF'd it. Twice. >.

@KristinKravesBooks 6 месяцев назад

I love seeing you try to be mean 😂 Dragonfall sounded so good but I haven't seen a positive review of it yet!

@chelsimullen65 6 месяцев назад

This video was so funny 😆😂 Your Alone With You in the Ether rant made me so happy 🥲 Finally someone who gets it!!

@ambrelicious04 6 месяцев назад

Please more rant/dislike videos! This one was so good!

@toshp9362 6 месяцев назад

I feel like I’m the only person on planet earth who loved Midnight is the Darkest Hour and also loathed The Last Housewife. Haha but I’m not upset, I love a good hater video, ESPECIALLY when I loved a lot of the books on the list ❤

@anikamercier2651 6 месяцев назад

I didn’t like The Writing Retreat either by the end it was a 3 star. Honestly I just got so bored by the time things picked up I was over it.

@frannook 6 месяцев назад

I know I probably shouldn't say it but I *love* mean Riley! You should totally be mean 364 days of the year and nice for 1 day 🤣

@crystalsbookishlife 6 месяцев назад

I am here to celebrate the 1/365 hater days 😂 ESPECIALLY for the Alone With You In The Ether slander 😂😂😂

@typeonereader 5 месяцев назад

The puppet rant was real

@ChemicalPenguinn 6 месяцев назад

All I remember about Alone With You In The Aether is the line "he filled her" being used almost incessantly. No thanks.

@RileyMarie_ 6 месяцев назад

Yes! Hard pass

@JulEnglefaris 6 месяцев назад

I would categorize We Need To Do Something as partially gross horror. Some nasty stuff went down in there. God I hated it.

@JulEnglefaris 6 месяцев назад

"Break up or die" 😂 🐲

@imaginepageant 6 месяцев назад

About the constant talk about farts and butts… that is literally what life with a young boy is like. 😂 And poop. No, ESPECIALLY poop. I kept a list of all the times my son mentioned poop one day and I kid you not, it was something like 30. If you live with a young boy, you will hear about farts, butts, and poop endlessly, for years on end. (I should add that it isn’t boy-exclusive; my daughter is absolutely guilty of it as well.)

@karinscott4455 5 месяцев назад

Agree with most, but I loved My Lovely Wife. One I hated was The One.

@ourreadinghour 6 месяцев назад

Yes omg, i hated we need to do something. I don't understand why it. Also I feel the same way about gross horror which is actually why I don't think grady hendrix is for me. Southern book club was just... gross Ok also iron flame!!! This needed so much editing. My friends are making these comments about how it should have been two books but like, it was too long already?

@KatieColson 6 месяцев назад

I pumped my fist in the air when you mentioned Finlay Donovan. I am the captain of the hater ship for this series

@RileyMarie_ 6 месяцев назад

it was SO bad

@tara3827 6 месяцев назад

omg thank you for The writing retreat i didn't like this book

@theherblueprint 6 месяцев назад

how you felt about disliking the writing retreat is how i felt about love & others words. i’m probably the only one that did NOT like that book.

@imjustcookingpizza9354 5 месяцев назад

Im always so pleased to find another alone with you in the ether hater!!! truly one of the most overhyped books.

@naomiking7518 6 месяцев назад

❤❤

@ShelbyBarton704 2 месяца назад

"What Lies in the Woods" was boring for me as well, I read to the end, still boring. And I'm not really fond of "The Writing Retreat", find the villain annoying and didn't like the protagonist. 😂

@SabShowalter 6 месяцев назад

Olivie Blake’s writing was my least favorite thing from 2023

@louisathellama 6 месяцев назад

As someone who actually enjoyed Iron Flame, all of these negative reviews have me cackling 😂 it being a dumpster fire actually makes me love it more

@kaybanks8781 6 месяцев назад

From someone is nice one day out of 365, I loved this video - so funny! ". . . can this little boy die?" and ". . . just break up or die!" Those two quotes are going in my book (not a real book, don't be silly.)

@emileet.401 6 месяцев назад

first of all you are correct always! second of all, rebecca yarros betrayed me on a personal level with iron flame and made so many of us look stupid, so therefore, she can't be forgiven!

@RileyMarie_ 6 месяцев назад

miss yarros needs to pay from her crimes
