The number of times that interviewees say: "that is SUCH a good question" on this show is honestly the best sign of how amazing you two are as interviewers. I absolutely loved this chat, and Saint really lives up to her name, what a gem!! Can't wait to hear your thoughts on the Summoner's Circle series, Taylor. I am eagerly awaiting book 2 🤩🤩

Totally agree sometimes we just read less, and sometimes we read a ton. It’s always so up and down like everything else in life. I’ll always be here from a video from you whether it’s about 2 books or 20. I’ll be sad when your Japan life vlogs are over forever, but so excited for the next phase of your life back here in the States!!

Loved this one so much!! Savage Blooms was immediately added to my TBR.

I didn't read a lot this summer either. In July I managed only one book, but it's ok. We can't read all the time sometimes life takes over.

All the love to the small wrap-ups! I think it's super healthy to show that even your biggest hobbies can come and go in waves. SO exciting to hear that you are firmly planning to go back to the US soon, even if it's bittersweet to leave the beautiful Japan behind. And oooh good luck with your ankle surgery, I really hope that all goes well!! Also, make that four jobs with being a mom as well friend, I don't know how you do it! 😅🤩 Anyway, glad that these two books were such gems for you! I really need to reread TBTWB and continue the series. And consider me intrigued about the other book, I had never heard of it before but it sounds very fascinating and refreshing! Sending you alllll the love, take it easy 🥰

Loved your little wrap-up! Sometimes life is busy and that’s just reality 😁 I read The Book That Wouldn’t Burn this summer also, and I enjoyed it. It was unique and interesting. Right now I’m reading Boy’s Life by Robert McCammon and just absolutely loving it. His writing is amazing. Have a great week!

I've been very curious to try The Book that Wouldn't burn at some point, maybe next year sometime. Sounds like you've been having some high quality reads and I feel like that's always preferable to a high quantity (unless it's a high quantity of 5 stars of course 😆).

Seriously, thank you so much for these small wrap ups. I find them so refreshing 💕 It is totally normal for our reading to ebb and flow! Also, you read more than I did this summer 😅. I’m really happy for you about your new job, you seem really excited about it! The Book That Wouldn’t Burn sounds so good, I love books about books and libraries. I can’t wait to give that one a shot one of these days! I find it so important to carve out time to read or else, for me, it just doesn’t happen. Good luck with your cozy ritual! It sounds super relaxing!

Ahh! I’m so glad you loved the Book that Wouldn’t Burn! Another one to add to our joint loved book list 😆 I still need to get to the sequel! The way you described setting the mood for reading sounds so damn appealing! I need more aesthetically pleasing reading settings in my life.

Talk about a comedy of errors, good grief. Props to you for being tenacious enough to still edit together this vlog. I'm jealous that you got to meet so many fun book tube people! Someday we'll get to meet when we're in the same country lolol

Hilo is a wartime Pillar! Lan was a peacetime Pillar! Ayt would’ve ran over Lan & easily destroyed NoPeak if he didn’t 💀. I view Hilo as Sonny from Godfather. He grew up all knew was Clan above all else. Hilo is easily my favorite character.

that is an insanely cool kickstarter!

I need to read Nettle and Bone, after loving Sorceress Comes to Call... would be so cool to meet her!

I've read Cranford, for a previous Victober! It's Victorian small-town loves and losses, and the march of progress and what it does to a community of women. It's lovely. Dame Judi starred in an adaptation!

Bookcase...suitcase..same-same in some instances! 🤣👏🤩

The Winnowing Flame is such a fun series, love watching you guys gush about it and Vintage is by far the best character. SPOILERS Noon deserved better in the ending, but it was also poignant and powerful so I don't know that I actually want it to be any different xD

Okay not me getting misty-eyed at the end when you were showing off that print with all the signatures and talking about the long-lasting power of this lovely community 🥺😍 Listen girl, you are gonna EAT UP Your Blood and Bones and What Moves the Dead, I just know it!! And heeeck yes for Mushroom Blues, so proud of Adrian for all his well-deserved succes! Also, congrats on the sponsor, Wraithmarked is incredible! 🤩

I can’t wait to hear what you think about that histfic you got at Goldsboro! I almost bought it, too 😂

Congratulations on your first sponsor! And what a sponsor! ❤ I LOVE that idea of finding a different Winnie the Pooh copy wherever you go 🥰 I’ve seen Mushroom Blues floating around but after seeing the fine details on the book’s cover I need to pick it up! Plus…MUSHROOMS!!! 🍄 A tape!?!! Time trip!!! That’s awesome

How i've missed watching your videos! Such a cool haul, I love all the little stories behind some of your purchases

Epic book haul. Parable of the Sower was great. Love the Winnie the Pooh book. It was great meeting you in Glasgow, and glad you picked up a couple things from the Freebies library. Love that signature art piece, both the art and the signatures and the whole heart behind that.

This is a great haul! I’m so jealous of that Earthseed set 🤯 those are stunning

The art on the Clarkesworld looks beautiful! Also Mushroom Blues & Sons of Darkness yessss

It was so nice to finally meet you and hang out a bit in Birmingham before the chaos of Worldcon. Hopefully I'll see you again soon at another event.

I’m trying to find the willpower to start Stormlight 😂 TBB edition of Sons of Darkness looks even better here! I hope you have a great autumn! Happy reading!

The fact that you deliver THIS quality of a vlog even when the universe was trying left and right to doom it is honestly pure magic to me. This was SO FUN, thanks so much for putting in all the effort of doing the voice overs and taking us along on this amazing trip 🤩 I love to hear that it was such a spectacular time. So wholesome and heartwarming to see everyone bonding together, I hope I can be there one day myself as well! ☺ And ooooh your tattoo is just so adorable, Adrian is so talented! Also, all hail Krystle, they are the BEST 😍😍

Yooooo..Krystle Matar coming in clutch. WHUT A. FRIEND! What an example of how amazing this community is. Beautiful stuff 👏👏👏

Glad you had a great time at WorldCon 📚 such a shame about the missing/slow-mo footage but this vlog was great none the less!! Kendal is beautiful, not too far from me and the Lake District in general is so picturesque. I enjoy being part of the community, even if it’s limited to watching booktubers and interacting with comments ☺️

Oh man, I can only imagine the monumental effort to edit this! This was so much fun! Thanks for putting this together. I'm so happy you guys had such a blast, though also insanely jealous. I'd really like to make my way to the next big con!

This is just a beautiful BEAUTIFUL mess. A unique vlog in a nicest meaning possible. And a shoutout for Krystle: such a wonderful peron and a SUPER human being! I hope I get to go to the next Worldcon that comes to Europe.

I haven't finished the vlog yet but that tattoo is SO CUTE!!!

It was so nice to meet you in person. I really want to go back to WorldCon now. So many good memories 🥲

My favourite part of this was listening to Krystal literally have no voice left 😂

The Cursed Vlog has turned into a Blessed Vlog. You're one of the highlights of all of our UK trip. I will cherish the days, and hopefully we get to meet again soon! With beeru and sake next time! 😄

Bryce said it himself multiple times, but you two really showed off your incredible interviewer skills here. SUCH good questions, I loved this chat!! So interesting to get a little peek behind the scenes, and low-key cackling over the fact that Bryce depends on his team to keep his impulsivity in check hahah. Thanks for the fun! 🤩

I just love these interviews that you do. First Matt fom Broken Binding and now Bryce from Wraithmarked! These people are so cool as are you and PL. Can't wait for the next one.

Omg this is so beautiful!! Am glad it was an amazing experience!

Oh to be back in “Flannel in August” weather again 😂 But seriously Taylor, being kind that night and trying to help was the easiest decision I’ve ever made because it was for you, and you really are the best 🥹🫶

I know how heartbroken and frustrated you must have been with all the setbacks but this is one of my favourite vlog of yours 👏🏻 I loved seeing scenic Scotland. I, and a lot of people couldn’t experience the convention in person, but through your vlog we were able to get a taste. So thank you 🥰 I love Marie Alice Harel’s art! Especially those prints!!!! They’ll look great on your wall. And hopefully stay there now that the humidity of summer has passed 😂 And the signed print! What a wonderful keepsake! What an adorable tattoo!!! A perfect memorabilia for a once in a lifetime trip!

I also need to get to sons of darkness and the stand-alones in First Law and keep not prioritizing them so I feel you there lolol

You are making me SO excited to get back to Stormlight as well!! And yeeees, Dawnshard supremacy>>> Also please do yourself a favour and make The Paper Menagerie a priority, you are missing out!! 🥲 What Moves the Dead is the perfect Kingfisher for spooky season, and I think you could even slam the 2nd one right after it as well ;) Beyond excited for all the upcoming channel content, be it just your solo videos or the Page Chewing. Happy reading 🥰

post when you can no rush! fans will be here. loved hearing from you!

How do You Live is actually the book that his mother left him.

Such a great sounding tbr 👌🏾I'll be interested to see what you thought of Falling in love with Hominids, I've always wanted to read Hopkinson too!

ayeeeeee fruits basket!!!

unsure what mbr means BUT we stan t kingfisher!!! i also just adore the cadence in how you speak, very soothing to listen to!

It sounds like you really want to be reading the Stormlight Archive and I think you should follow your bliss 😌 I picked up Sons of Darkness mostly as a cover buy 🤭 so I’ll be interested to hear more opinions on it. And yay more T. Kingfisher! I haven’t read those novellas yet but I’ll get to them eventually. Looking forward to your Worldcon vlog!!! Sorry it’s been such a pain, I’ve totally been there when everything about a video seems to go wrong 😵‍💫 you’re a stronger woman than me for pushing through. Really enjoying reading outside of SFF at the moment ✌️For the first time in a long time I’m letting myself read wherever I want and it feels awesome

The Paper Menagerie!!!! ❤❤❤ I can’t tell you how much I’d love to hear your thoughts. It’s SO GOOD! I read it over the summer with some friends: 1-2 stories per week, and I adored the collection. I think you would love the cultural intersections presented in light-sci-fi, magical realism, speculative fiction stories. Some stories are very emotional, so be prepared! Happy Autumn reading! 🍂🍁

So much TBR so little time! 😵‍💫
