Hannah? In a red beret? This year is gonna be GOOD.❤❤

I'm going to try to knock out most of the classics on my shelves this year. I mean its been a few centuries since they were published its about time right

THE SEVEN HUSBANDS OF EVELYN HUGO IS THE BEST BOOK HOLY COW IT WAS AMAZING AND IT DESERVES EVERY BIT OF HYPE.

1. Mistborn (era 1 & 2) 2. Queen of the Tearling 3. Night Circus 4. Red Sister 5. The Name of the Wind 6. A Darker Shade of Magic 7. Nevernight 8. Scythe 9. Poison Study 10. The Raven Boys And SO many more! I had an awesome reading year. The only let downs were Red Queen, Prince of Thorns and Good Omens (I still want to watch the show)

could you do your favorite LGBTQ+ books? maybe like top 5 favorite lgbtq+ books or something. I'd really love to see a video like that

My top 5: 5. We Are The Ants 4. The Final Empire 3. Cress 2. Carry On 1. Radio Silence

Every time you upload a new video my reading list grows. This year I’ve read The Night Circus and I LOVED IT! So thank you for all the work and dedication you put out there. You are a reading inspiration...if that makes sense. You are such a strong woman! Even if it terrified you to let the world know about your health issues, you did let it out. But you did not do it to attract attention or anything of the sort. You did it to share with us what you were dealing with and educate us too. And for that you are amazing! Keep doing what you are doing, cause you’re killing it! Sending my love from Argentina

I was wondering where Evelyn Hugo was, and was SO happy to see it at the end. It was my favorite book of this year too. It was like I was reading a book I had always wanted, but never really KNEW I wanted it until it was in front of me. I still think of it so often. By the way, your eyeshadow looks beautiful in this video Hannah.

I just got into reading again this year so basically all of my favorite books I read this years. This is in no particular order: -The Diviners Series -The Infernal Devices -Carry On -The Rest of Us Just Live Here -The Magnus Chase Series -Gentleman’s Guide to Vice & Virtue -Six of Crows -They Both Die at the End

My top 3 would be 3-Jane of Austin by Hilary Manton Lodge 2-Throne of Glass by Sarah J maas 1-Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare This year I fell in love with reading again and it changed me. I love your videos Hannah 💜

Hannah you are looking radiant! You have such a warm and calming presence, I often find myself watching your videos after an anxiety attack or meltdown, they really help me. I’m sending love and positivity, and truly hope you have a year full of healing and good health💌

I just finished Torch this morning and it was honestly one of the most brutal YA fantasy books I've ever read, but it was so good even if Sabaa doesn't let her characters breathe for more than three seconds.

I started watching your channel last year and you've got me into reading again :) thankyou for reminding me why I loved reading so much

Her voice is so soothing and comforting and satisfying and sweet 😍❤also her recommendations and the way of recommending just grips you to the extent that you HAVE TO HAVE TO read it Love you Hannah!!

My favourites: 1. Circe 2. Aru shah and the end of time 3. Vengeful

I LOVE YOUR EDWARD AND ALPHIE FIGURINES OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG You and paperbackdreams are so inspiring and have both got me reading more again when I had really lost my passion for it, even though I absolutely adore reading and books. My anxiety and depression demotivated me for quite a few years after high school, but you both reignited my drive to do so! I love you! Thank you!

HOW CUTE ARE YOU IN YOUR BERET?!? I love listeing to you talk about books, Hannah, you are so so beautifully eloquent.

LOVE your eyeshadow!! I've seen so many repeat books on everyone's favourite lists this year like The Astonishing Color of After and The Poet X so my want to read shelf is about to get a lot longer !!

These types of videos are my fav too. Its helpful to get recommendations from the whole year versus the month.

I love that you are reading/spreading the word on Libba Bray because my sister and I have been following her books religiously since 2010 and I haven’t met anyone else that’s heard of her!!! She’s so talented, I’m so glad she’s getting the recognition she deserves!!!

I got so emotional when you talked about Paperweight, I’m so proud of you ♥️ Also we have so many favorites in common! Sending hugs as always ♥️

God I LOVE this video of yours! I’m actually kinda jealous cuz you seem so articulate and passionate and when I’m talking about my passions I just kinda stumble and go “omg I love it!” But you are so descriptive and elegant with your words and I’m just like super jealous but I also love it so much you are incredible I love you and I hope to hear/talk/see from you so much more this year!!! 😍🤗❤️😘👏🏻

I just finished Children of Blood and Bone and it’s definitely one of my favorites! I loved the characters so much and the way the author went about describing everything. I cant wait until Children of Virtue and Vengeance comes out!

You are a VISION in that red beret! I always love hearing your bookish opinions. Added a few new things to my own TBR!

Great list! My favorites this year were The Diviners series, Six of Crows Duology, and Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine. I also really loved Truly Devious, The Wayward Children series, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, Saga (I read Books 1 & 2, so volumes 1-6), Monstress, Children of Blood and Bone, The Last Namsara... Such a fantastic reading year! 💕

My top five (because why not): 1) SIX OF CROWS DUOLOGY by Leigh Bardugo (specifically Crooked Kingdom) 2) Moxie by Jennifer Mathieu 3) The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas 4) To All the Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han 5) A Torch Against the Night by Sabaa Tahir This is the first time ever where 3/5 of the top 5 are contemporary.

Love the diversity of characters and authors in these books!! Can't wait to read as much as I can from them!

I love the way you talk about the An Ember in the Ashes series! It’s my all time favorite fantasy series, I’m just so emotionally invested and in love with the whole story and the characters, especially Elias! Can’t wait for the last book 😍

The red beret is absolutely fabulous! Hannah, your videos always make my day feel a little bit brighter! 😊

I LOVE watching your videos cause I think you’re one of the few youtubers who’s genuine when reviewing books. Keep up the great content!

ooooh this countdown feature is fun! :) I haven't tried using the premiere or countdown features yet... did you create that little counting down animation? If so... super cute! :) I might have to try this on my channel when I have something big coming out!

Hannah you are so, so strong!! I really need to read Paperweight now. I need to read all of these books. Sending so much love and support. 💕💕💕 Here's to a phenomenal 2019.

“Oui oui, mon ami, je m’appelle Hannah The Lancelot of the literary set I came from RU-vid just to give five stars Tell the author love-toi Who’s the best, c’est moi” -Hannah wearing her red beret ❤️

I just picked up The Night Circus because of your love for it. I am so excited to read it. 💕

Ahhh listening to you talk about books is so wonderful!!

Love your beret! You are so beautiful! A Torch Against the Night, A Reaper At the Gates and To All The Boys I've Loved Before Series are some of the books I also read this year and I ABSOLUTELY love them too.

I LOVE your reviews! Thank you so much for making me look forward to read new books!!!

Alice Oseman also makes an incredibly cute comic about her brother (I think?) from Radio Silence and his boyfriend it's so cute and well-written :,)

My top three favorites: Children of Blood and Bone Fangirl Sadie ♥️ love your videos Hannah! I’m listening to The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and I’m on chapter 8 and I am already in love! Can’t wait to finish it! 😁

A lot of the book covers matched your eye shadow, I loved it 😂❤️

Thank you for introducing the Diviners series :)

Ahh I’ve been excited to see this from you. Thanks for sharing ❤️

My favorite book of 2018 was actually Radio Silence! I picked it up based on your recommendation in another video and was completely blown away. I'm currently reading The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and loving it more than I expected. Already had Hank Green's novel on my TBR for 2019 and you made me add Poet X and The Astonishing Color of After! 💗

you speak so remarkably! it's my goal to read 60 books this year which isn't easy for me but i am going to pick up all the books you mentioned !

your outfit is on fire. I really like your style. You're an inspiration. Thank you for talking about reading and books. You were the one who made me fall in love again with reading. Thanks. :)

You look so good with the red beret! Your eyeshadow is lovely as well. 💕 Love the video!

13:52 notice how her eyeshadow / hat matches the ombre of the cover (these little things make me happy)

You have fully convinced me to read An Absolutely Remarkable Thing. I wasn't planning on it but now I feel like I need it!

I have Circe on my priority 2019 tbr and hearing you talk about it makes me so excited! I can't wait to start it. :D Some of my top fave books from 2018 were: The Hero of Ages, Soulbinder, and Traitor's Blade. All fantasy hahaha. Love your content & love supporting you. All the best for 2019! x

Omg all your FMA pops 😍 I’m so jealous!

Omg why are you so perfect Hannah, you rock literally EVERYTHING, *especially* that beret omfggggg 😍😍😍

New video of Hannah? What a beautiful day!

you might possibly have the most relaxing voice i’ve ever heard in my life 😮

I can't wait to read some of these books! I love the beret and makeup

paper weight was such an emotional and beautiful book I loved it. Great video!♥

My top three favourite reads in 2018 (in no particular order): Renegades and it’s sequel Archenemies- I just love Marissa Meyer’s writing style, the characters are so close to my heart and omg I’m so hyped for the third book aaahh! The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender- this story is so enchanting in a way, these characters have different stories to tell but it all comes together epically, I love the idea just in general and I’m so glad I picked it up! Lastly, They Both Die At The End- this book broke me. I rarely cry when reading a book and here I am crying at the end. In such a short time I grew to love these characters and I love Mateo and Rufus’s story together. I adore just the overall premise and the characters and the story work so well together. Also, if you’re reading this Hannah, would you consider doing a video talking about your favourite book characters? I honestly just want to hear your opinions on Ty Blackthorn since I love him so much and can relate to him. Anyway, loved this video and will definitely check out these books! :)

The seven husband's of Evelyn Hugo just got translated to swedish and I bought it to the library I work at because of you! I will definitely read it during 2019!

Our 2019 has been blessed by the red beret of good fortune~ I read An Ember in the Ashes this year and it was one of my favorites, along with the Poppy War

Evelyn Hugo was my favourite of 2018 too! Followed by Little Fires Everywhere and Half of the Yellow Sun. I don't know if you've read anything by Celeste Ng or Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie but I think you'd enjoy both of their books.

Your videos are always so lovely!! Hope you have a happy and healthy 2019, Hannah

I loved most of the books on this list omg. I actually read The Astonishing Color of After thanks to you, Hannah :) and I loveee it so much, it is one of my favorite books of all time now

I have an addiction...to you Hannah, I LOVE ur videos.

I read the Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo because of you! It was amazing definitely my favorite read this year!

You are absolutely glowing with this look ✨.

I also loved The Poet X and Children Of Blood And Bone. I'm so excited for the latter's sequel (s)!

Circe, Before the Devil Breaks You, and The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo were all on my yearly top ten as well!! I can't believe it's taken me so long to get to the Diviners series, and I'm so glad you liked Radio Silence so much, it's one of my favorite books

I love that you included children of blood and bone I never see it in book tube

been looking forward to watching this all day tbh

HANNAH! I love Radio Silence with my whole heart and I haven't been able to talk with anyone about it. Thanks for giving it the love it deserves :)

Thank you for introducing me to Circe! I just finished it, great book

My favourites of 2018 included: 1) The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee 2) Dear Martin by Nic Stone 3) The Battlemage by Taran Matharu 4) The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupèry 5) Am I Normal Yet? by Holly Bourne. I am currently reading The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller and it’s incredible. Always enjoy your videos Hannah and I’ve a lot of books that I’m going to read in 2019 based on your recommendations.

Al and Winry on your shelfs are so cute! 😍

The premiere was awesome! One of my favorites of last year was, We Were Liars, ​I listened to it because Sophie from Sophiesticated Books was raving about it in a reading vlog. It had such an emotional impact, and it had really beautiful and lyrical writing, I was hooked from the very beginning. One of my other favorite is obviously, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid. That story also had a major emotional impact. Evelyn's story was so compelling, what she went through, and how she fought to get where she wanted. She's also bold, and owns up to the fact that sometimes she makes bad decisions. It was an amazing book, and I got a used hardcover copy of the book for less than $2.00. It was in really good condition too! I also really really enjoyed the book A Very Very Bad Thing by Jeffrey Self, it was funny, impactful, and really emotional. I really enjoyed this video! And The Astonishing Color of After sounds really amazing! There are some books on here that you've mentioned that I can't wait to read in 2019. I hope to see you around on Twitter. Some day, maybe I will be able to meet you in person. I hope you're doing well, I think you're an amazing BookTuber, Hannah.

I found your channel sometime in the fall of 2018 and it was also when I took the plunge with utilizing audiobooks more! So I’ve been able to breeze through your recommendations cause there were a lot of books I’ve been wanting to read but didn’t have the funds to purchase each book individually. Some of my favs of 2018: The Night Circus - had this paperback for a few years as a TBR but after watching you dug it out of my bookshelf and just devoured it! Loved it! The Perks of Being a Wallflower - this was on audiobook and I can’t recommend that way enough! There is something so visceral experiencing the book this way. I knew nothing about it going in and I’m so glad for that! Gentlemen’s Guide to Vice & Virtue - ah loved this so much! The audiobook was so great! I finished it and was able to dive into the sequel The Lady’s Guide to Petticoats & Piracy immediately after. I didn’t love the sequel as much as the first one but I’m looking forward to more in this series. The Mortal Instruments (Part 1) - Again this was via audiobook. I live in NYC so audiobooks have made my commute so much better. This series has been on my TBR for years and years as well. The first three books of the this series just kept getting better and better as they progressed! I’m loving the world that she built as well as the complicated relationships. I’m doing the Clare reading order so I’m actually just starting The Infernal Devices now before I continue The Mortal Instruments. Can’t wait to finish and can’t wait for more recommendations from you!

I hope your doing much better Hannah!! I read Paperweight this year as well and it was a powerful read. The Astonishing Color of After is HIGH on my TBR! I did a favorites video on my channel as well. My top two were The Great Alone and The Nightengale by Kristin Hannah! I highly recommend both!!

Evelyn Hugo is definitely one of my favorite books too! I need to read The Poet X and Strange the Dreamer!

The Seven Husbands was so, so good, was in my top reads for 2018 too! Loved it, very powerful read about relationships!

My favorite read for 2018 was Throne of Glass! I have just gotten back into reading after years of being away, and after reading this book, I have been pulled back in to a huge passion of mine!

You have so many good books on your list! I just started watching your video but loving your reading tastes already! If you love Circe, you should definitely try The Song of Achilles as that one has definitely crept into one that I love. I also have read Six of Crows in 2019 which so late but I absolutely love it! I need to read Truly Devious, The Poet X, To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before, Children of Blood and Bone, An Ember in the Ashes, Muse of Nightmares, Circe, and The Astonishing Color of After! I definitely want to get to some of these too! I can’t wait to see your other videos! Here are my favorites of 2018: (in no particular order except for number one): 1. They Both Die At The End by Adam Silvera 2. Amy and Roger’s Epic Detour by Morgan Matson 3. Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson 4. The Darkest Minds series by Alexandra Bracken (if I had to pick one, it would be In The Afterlight) 5. To Kill a Kingdom by Alexandra Christo 6. Warcross by Marie Lu 7. Love and Gelato by Jenna Evans Welch 8. City of Glass by Cassandra Clare 9. The Cruel Prince by Holly Black 10. Furthermore by Tahereh Mafi

You’re making me want to read Circe!! 🙃

Loved Evelyn Hugo! I am still thinking about that book. It was beyond fantastic❤️

I read the Infernal Devices series because of you and it’s my favorites series ever. I cried so hard but it made me so happy.

Those covers for An Ember In The Ashes, though! Damn, I want those!

the astonishing colour of after sounds so, so good!

Love watching ur videos Recently I read paperweight and radio silence and it was really good... 💕💕💕💕💕

Hi Hannah! I’ve been a subscriber for a short while now and have been wanting to say just how much I love your channel! You have the loveliest personality and some truly amazing content (ATLA book recs?? Sign me up) - I hope 2019 is good to you and couldn’t thank you enough for all your bookish content!! ❤️

I like that you're proud of reading so much, as you should be! There are so many booktubers who say that they ONLY read 100 books, like that's a big disappointment or something.

My favorites is a couple of less known books. There all fantasy though. 5. Unearthed by amie Kaufman and Meagan spooner 4. Legend trilogy by Marie Lu 3. The Ascendance trilogy by Jennifer A. Nielsen 2. Mark of the thief series by Jennifer A. Nielsen 1.The Unwanteds by Lisa McMann Please like so she can see!

I was reading The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo before jumping online. I wasn't sure what to expect from it, but I love it. I'm about a quarter done with it so far

I bought Truly Devious off your recommendation a while back and it is one of my favorite books of all time now! Thank you!!!! and anyone reading this, if you like YA and crime, you'd enjoy that book!

I read a lot more classics this year and my three favorites were probably 1 Cats cradle 2 War and Peace 3 The picture of Dorian Gray also i love the barrett

Circe was one of the most beautiful books I ever read! So glad you felt the same!

I read The seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo because you recommended it and it ended up being my favorite book of 2018 and probably my favorite book ever. It blew me away and I haven't stopped thinking about it ever since I read it. Also, I finished An Absolutely Remarkable Thing last night and it will definitely be in my top 10 of 2019. So, thank you for all your amazing recommendations and also for being such a bright light in this community! ❤

I'm not a big reader, but I'd love to read more, I've just watched a few of your videos and I've already purchased 4 books online 😂😂😂 You're so good at explaining and describing them!

My favourite books that I read this year were: 1. The perks of being a wallflower (Stephen Chbosky) 2. The love song of Miss Queenie Hennessy (Rachel Joyce) 3. A long way down (Nick Hornby) 4. Pet semetary (Stephen King) 5. The Remains of the Day (Kazuo Ishiguru) I also just finished "Turtles all the way down" and it will definitely make this year's list for me! I love John Green's writing and his way with words. The book was so emotionally heavy and sometimes really hard to read and to imagine what it must be like to feel that way all the time. Also on my TBR this year is "Children of Blood and Bone" because you recommended it in your "Books that are like ATLA" video. I'm also a huge ATLA fan so I have high hopes for this book!
