Gorgeoussssssss, and I mean all the books. Even with the issues, that character art alone is so amazing. I hope you get a positive response but I loved this haul anyways 😉 ❤❤🦇
@daad8264 Thank you so much lovely 🫶 I agree! the character art is more than beautiful 😍
100 percent, please wrap it in bubble wrap it travels across the whole world T__T My Shades of Magic trilogy came damaged as there was no protection at all :( I really hope you have a different opinion on the Stars are Dying and actually like it, bestie. The edition is beautiful. Such a shame. Also, yaas, Caraval looks so awesome <3 As for the Crown of Nyaxia, I also have the lines in exactly the same spots, so I think these will be the same for most of us. Still sucks. Fairyloot confirmed these are a printing issue and will not replace them if this is the only damage as they cannot make sure the replacement will be any different. I do love the spines though, more than the actual printed edges :)))
@MsSonorus yeah same response 😕. I agree the spines are superior 💜 I honestly don't understand Owlcrate! To send books without protection is....bold
I've gotten a respone from FL about Crowns of Nyaxia, they are replacing the one with the "dull" edge, but not the book with the lines on the hardback! Better then nothing!💕
@SagaB03 got the same response 😕 Apparently all of them are like that... basically they messed up the quality control😬
Totally recommend Mistborn before Stormlight archive. As a matter of fact I would recommend in this order 1. Mistborn era 1 2. Elantris 3. Warbreaker 4. Mistborn era 2 5 Stormlight archive It’s definitely a years long commitment to get though Cosmere.
Thank you so much for the reading order!🤗 I started reading Mistborn and I am enjoying the writing SO MuCH!
Such pretty books! I'm excited to read Serpent and the Wings of the Night!! 🧛
I hope you love it too!!😍
I love the crowns of Nyaxia books! 🧛🏻♀️🩸❤️
Me too 😍
🧛♀
🧛 Great haul as always! I received my fairyloot editions of Serpent and the Wings of Night last week and the coloring of your edges on the first book is DEFINITELY off! I didn’t notice any lines on mine but now I want to go recheck them. I was a bit disappointed with how dark my edges were. I can barely make out what the designs are! 🥴but super happy that they are both signed! I hope Fairyloot will at least replace your lighter colored edge! That’s a shame!
Thank you! 🙏💜Hope yours are fine🤞
omg the serpent and wings of night and ashes and the star cursed king by fairyloot are so pretty!! is that from their romantasy box or...? i want them T___T i wonder if they would do spares for these
They are a separate preorder from the monthly box. Keep an eye out for the next Fairy Trove restock 😉
the first girls video always takes me out 🤣🤣 wdym too many words 😭. but imo if you’re skimming a bunch and have the urge to skip paragraphs, you might not like the book. maybe choose another????
Exactly! 🙌
Hockey's biggest award is "The Stanley Cup" ... like the idea of the FIFA cup only for the NHL (National Hockey League). What you're thinking of is the stanley cups that people buy to drink from LOL
@coffee_cookies_books Yesss hahhahah does it show that I am completely clueless when it comes to hockey? 🤣
@@CoffeeAndTales Nah ... I only know because I'm Canadian and my dad LOVES hockey. I could care less myself, so have no worries. You are not alone LOL 😍
So glad to hear that I'm not alone 😅
I would recommend you read the deal before the graham effect as she is the daughter of that couple (plus that book is top tier)
@jadewalsh8354 Ohhh thank you so much for mentioning this 🙏🫶
My copy of The ashes and the star-cursed king has the same lines but they don't bother me that much. Spectacular is truly spectacular indeed. I am budgeting too, January is going to be a really expensive month, I think.
Thank you for letting me know. This confirms it then that it's a problem for all copies... January for me too! (Next month also)😶🌫️
I love your book Haul videos! I will receive my FairyLoot Crowns of Nyaxia books until next week. I hope to receive them in good condition!!
@@jcfdzyepez517 Thank you so much!🤗 I am crossing my fingers for you 🤞🤞
In this book the stanley cup refers to the trophy given to nhl team that wins championship. Not the drink cup.
Ohh 😅 thank you for clarifying!
🩸
🩸 🧛♀️ 🧛 🦇 ❤Stunning 🤩 i enjoyed this video 🙌🏻 Carissa broad bent books I would have loved for fairyloot to do more gilded either gold nor silver etc. but on the sprayed edges yes I agree with you ……
I agree! They would've been stunning 😍
Congrats on your gorgeous books. 🧛🏼♀️🦇🩸⚰️
@badfaith4u Thank you so much bestie 🤗
All the books are gorgeous!
@@АннаАнатольевна-л4щ Yhank you so much 🤗
The colour for the foil on The Stars Are Dying has to be my favourite one~ Oh.. that material for the harcover ohh noo it seems like it's gonna crease when you're reading the book >_<'' maybe I'm wrong. The foiled snowflakes on Spectacular!! So cute ;_;. Such a shame about the 🩸Crowns of Nyaxia🩸 books... The colour looks amazing, the dust jacket looks really good too..the artwork T-T stunning! When you went back near the bookcase and were turning the book it did look like the stars on the hardcover were glowing?...but the edges look way off and they don't match.. maybe it's because of the colour difference....I hope they get back to you :(....🧛OMG LOL I was just talking to one of my co-workers about the Stanley Cup collections thing she kept sending me the "packing my Stanley videos" and we were both just confused about it.. What's wrong with a plain water bottle? I mean I kinda get if you're getting stickers to decorate that's fine but... whew people go crazy on the accessories.. and the different colour variations🩸
@@Muxl yeah, there is definitely a problem with the edges 😩 and the lines on the hardcover...
@Muxl the Stanley cup obsession is weird to me hahaha 😅. I bet the Stanley company is having a party each week🎊
They're all stunning! 😍 I've recently received The Bell Witches from The Locked Library, and it came completely damaged, not only the dust jacket, but the whole book was bent 😢 probably while going through customs. But after emailing LL, they said I would need to completely rip the book in half and send them a picture to get a replacement 🙈
@tamara_anne yes, you have to destroy your copy to get a replacement 🫢
The second that owlcrate announced the darker shade of Magic series I got threads of power! So I hope I can do the same with caraval 🙏
@miiiiaaah I also got The Fragile Threads of Power and The Shades of Magic, is the way 🤩 I can't wait!!
@miiiiaaah I really hope so too 🤞
I recommend Mistborn era 1 first (the original trilogy) and Warbreaker before the Stormlight Archive (warbreaker cause background characters appear in both stories but other than that it's unrelated)
Thank you so much for the tip! 🤗
I am excited for Wind And Truth,Knife Skills For Beginners and Not In My Book
I started with storm light archive ... Do not regret it ❤
Someone recommend me the scariest book available. I need some kick in my life 😅 it's too dull right now.
Sorry can't help you there, I don't read a lot of horror 🙈
@@CoffeeAndTales it's alright 😊
📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚🔔🔔🔔🔔🔔🔔
📚
I agree, read Mistborn era 1 first. Stormlight archives is a lot! Also, Mistborn is wonderful! I’ve read that trilogy twice. Highly recommend!📚
@@teddited9682 I am definitely going to start with Mistborn 👍🤓
I know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover but damn.. A Monsoon Rising looks amazing whoever the artist is did an amazing job! I think all the special editions for this one are gonna look amazing. Sadly I have not read the 1st one :(. "3rd Act Break Up" - I didn't know that had a special name for it but ya *coughBridecough* Heavenly Tyrant sounds interesting I wonder if the author can make that synopsis work.. I really liked Pacific Rim :x 📚 oh no Red Rising looks good... but it's a 7 book📚 series.... I'm not sure where you got your copies but I think they look amazing📚... Happy Sunday~!💜
@Muxl you cracked me up with the 3rd act break up comment 😂. You can read the first 3 books in Red Rising and stop there no problem. But I guarantee you you'll be too curious to know what's going on in the other books 😁. My editions are the Fairyloot ones! Happy Sunday to you too (we entered Monday here hahah, it's a bit after midnight 🙈)
@@CoffeeAndTales Ya! but imagine not owning all 7 pretty books :<< *sad* (well I did leave my comment kinda near the end of the sunday for me as well...opsies :3)
For Brandon Sanderson, you should read his standalone, Tress of the emerald sea first! It’s soooo good. ❤
@@ReadWithChelseyXO Thank you so much for the tip! 😃
I agree with you! I loved Tress Of The Emerald Sea!
So many new books releasing in December. Knife Skills for Beginners sounds fun. 📚📚📚
@@badfaith4u Absolutely 😃
📚 You're dead to me, a cruel thirst and what the wife knew are very interesting. I am most anticipating a monsoon rising since I loved the hurricane wars so much 😆 it should be both stressful and a hoot
@@daad8264 All the books you mentioned!! YES! 😎
The thing is, for a lot of booktokers/tubers nowadays it's another trend rather than real love for reading. They don't really care, all they want is to brag about the beauty of the covers on their shelves. It's purely superficial. Once you get that you also get why so many books are overrated on dedicated sites. The "book lovers" are just fangirls of the books' covers. It's basically their new Chanel bags... They probbaly like the fact that making reviews of books makes them look smarter than they actually are. But if you really listen to what they have to say about the books you realize that they don't say much actually.
@@piropiro1882 100% agree!
Love the updates, thank you for doing these! :) I would read Mistborn first, it’s more of an introduction to the epic fantasy world and the magic system. For Mistborn you can read the first book only ( as it feels complete on its own) or the first 3 books only to complete the entire story as book 4-6 are about different characters and time. But, it would be a better way for you to be eased in the complex world of The Stormlight archives. But if you are already used Epic Fantasy already ( ie you have read Game of Thrones, Wheel of Time etc) than you can dive directly into the Stormlight archives ☺️
@@miraboteva9731 Thank you so much for taking the time to explain, I really appreciate it 💗 🤗
So many intriguing releases coming…
@Vicky-xz1nu truly!!! I am sooo excited 🤩
📚 I'm really looking forward to 'What the Woods Took' too!! The concept seems really fun. Also, I'm reading Sanderson's Cosmere universe and I'm following the order that I found in this video th-cam.com/video/8bdGJD5j7Sg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=bhlLcrJNoJt5joTN
@ChatteringHana Awww thank you so much for sharing 🤗 I'll check it out!
📚📚📚 Love the update as always! Waiting for the special edition update!😊😊😊
@nicolewimbley8653 Thank you so much lovely 🤗💕
I genuinely hope that it is a real minority that feels like books have to many words, that they won't read long descriptions or plot building. I fear that it will cause a wider spread problem of author's not writing the epic stories as often, or even at all in the future. One thing I adore about reading is that (no matter the genre), you are getting a snapshot of what the world looks like at the time it was written. You are getting knowledge of how people spoke, how people acted in social situations, the struggles that people were fighting against and also the really amazing things that happened during each of those times. We risk losing that knowledge because today's people don't want to take the time to read/understand it. We would also be in danger of losing the immersive nature of a story. I love getting lost in the world the author created and the only way to do that is with those words, those long paragraphs, the non-dialogue situations. Dialogue does not hold worth if you don't understand why they are saying it. You need their history, their situation, their world described for it to hold weight. It's just a sad trend for me to witness. I've been reading novels since I was 4 years old and I don't want to lose the magic of reading because a minority of readers don't actually like reading.
I've read these recently, one of my favorite book series ever! ❤❤❤
@tamara_anne Ahhh I am so glad to hear it!! I fell in love with the unique story and characters 💜
I'm sure it's rage-bait, which is scummy on its own, but the fact people genuinely admit to mostly skimming books appalls me. It's a book. It's supposed to have words. Like you talked about, there are alternatives for people who might struggle with smaller font (or even specific font types). I think people who skim don't do it because page count or don't size; they're just trying to be apart of a trend without having to do anything. I've seen this with people who "review" books and all they do in their review is rehash the blurb on the back without giving their own personal thoughts. Red flag they never even touched the book. I don't think there's a decline. Booktok just brought out a bunch of people who wanted to hop on a hype train and now they're showing their real intentions, it looks like less -- but it's not. We're just weeding out the people who never were big on reading books but attempted to act like they were.
I kinda hope the virality of that video made more people aware of Six of Crows and gained it more readers, that would be the only silver lining for that rage bait.
@justwonder1404 Yessss omg this!!👏 I hope so too 🙏😃
Thank you for speaking about this..I have seen the 1st clip in full, and I follow her, as she is entertaining, but all of the books she hates are books that I personally love & adore and when she posted this video, it aggravated me so so much. For me personally, a book is an instant DNF if I start skimming it.
@DhanakNMalik Absolutely! Like why are you wasting your time on a book that you're not enjoying?!😮💨
@CoffeeAndTales If I don't feel curious and I don't care about what happens to the plot for characters, then I question myself: Is it worth reading. The fact that these people call themselves influencers and read book this way makes me inwardly cringe.. what are you trying to portray? An influencer is supposed to make you want to read more and love it more, not hop around the book with lengthy Paragraphs or "too many words". It is called a book for a reason in case they don't know 2ndly this year I discovered Audiobooks and my world is changed you are right try different formats if it feels jarring.
@DhanakNMalik I am a huge audiobook consumer too!! I love them! 💗
Creators like this are why people are looking down on Book accounts now, because they think we are all “playing” at being readers. It makes me so sad that it is basically being used as another string to influencers bows because it’s popular to be a reader at the moment. I can only hope these types of creators move on to the next popular thing soon. What really irks me is these people will also be rating on amazon etc and hurting the authors ratings and they hardly even read the book! I could go on 😂 this is why I’m not on TikTok. Great video 💕
@@Booksandmoe Exactly! 🤦♀️
I appreciate the points here are sarcasm/rage bait. And I even understand some of them, I still haven't read Iron Flame because of its tiny font and just how crammed the pages are. So I get that. But I am also not a booktoker. I don't have followers who are influenced by my opinions, and I don't earn an income for my reading. However, if you ARE earning an income for reading words on a page but you are complaining about how many words you've got to read...maybe pick a new thing to be an influencer of. Because that's honestly borderline becoming a vet and then complaining that cows Moo. We all skim read from time to time, that's perfectly okay. And especially on a Kindle, I don't know what it is about that magical device but it gives you the ability to absorb words like a sponge VS holding a physical book. But to completely skip whole pages and big chunks of context because you're offended by the amount of words in between the dialog, I'm sorry but that's so stupid. Please don't call yourself a reader if that is how you read all books. We do not claim you.

@daad8264 Ahhhhh so happy you received your copy too!!! It's stunning 😍. I still haven't read the bonus chapter though🙈
