"Gentelmen in Moscow" is wonderful, I started to read a library copy and after 100 pages I run and got my own. It was one of my favourites this year, and from what I know it's pretty historicaly accurate (not to mention the main character is just everything I ever wanted and writing is just beautiful).
Vespertine is a lot of fun, and it’s the first book in a series but also contains a complete story in book 1, so it has that stand-alone feel. It was really atmospheric and darkly funny, which I didn’t expect.
Re: Practical Magic, read the book first. Then forget it and watch the film. I love them both, but they are different beings that tell the same story and are yet completely different. Both the book and the movie are some of my favorites for completely different reasons.
Practical Magic is one of the only instances where I thought the movie was better than the book. That never happens lol. Curious to see what you think!
Amor Towles is one of my favorite authors, and I absolutely loved The Lincoln Highway. Towles just has a knack for writing characters that just feel so human with their quirks and feelings. I think you'll really love it when you get around to it! PS: I believe Vespertine is supposed to be a series!
No spoilers but you can probably watch Practical Magic before reading it, the plots diverge a lot lol They're both still great though! I actually liked the recent sequel way better than the original book too, so definitely check it out if/when you finish this one :)
What a wonderful collection of books! I am a huge fan of Amor Towles and can't wait to read "The Lincoln Highway". But as to Anne Bishop's "Written in Red" book....eh. Was not a fan. Thought the female protagonist was a ninny. And finally, "The Death of Jane Lawerence" sounds so good! Cheers!
I read Written in Red when I first went on Short Term Disability from work back in 2019 and LET ME TELL YOU. I binged the first three books because of the escapism and the wonderful satisfaction of the plot. I hope you like it!
I don't have that much money so I often buy books on NBS (National bookstore) that's on sale or a mini bookstore on another part of the mall I got 5 books from my Saturday Haul • Pumpkin Heads by Rainbow Rowell • All We Can Do Is Wait by Richard Lawson • Stay Sweet by Siobhan Vivian • Haunting Jordan by P.J Alderman • SILK by Caitlin R. Kiernan I got the first three books for 99 pesos (roughly around 1.97 dollars) and got the later 2 for 100 pesos (roughly around 1.99 dollars) which sums up to about 497 pesos or 9.91 dollars Currently reading Haunting Jordan and so far I like it
Practical Magic is an amazing movie (and a so-so book), but I would highly recommend the prequel The Rules of Magic, HBO have the rights too so we could potentially see a show one day.
I was shocked by how much I enjoyed the death of Jane Lawrence. Good plot, perfectly spooky, and great audiobook. I really need to read practical magic
i got an ARC of the keeper of night a few months ago and it was an IMMEDIATE 5 star, SO GOOD! i can’t wait to get my own physical copy to annotate. far from the light of heaven sounds so similar to across the universe by beth revis! i’d give it a shot if you haven’t read it!
unfortunately jade fire gold is a standalone!! the author june mentioned that it was originally meant to be a series but got shortened into a standalone due to publishing issues :(
A Cursed Carnival is on my TBR! I love twisted carnival/circus/fair/amusement park settings.
That Hobb book not being in it’s place properly behind you is driving me crazy 😅 on another, love your book recommendations!

I know this is off topic, but I love your sweater. Such a good array of colors
Same . Is it handknitted ?
The Others series is sooo good! I also love the follow up series
I loved Written In Red. I don't see the series talked about much on Book Tube. Glad that you liked it as well.
Oh my Gosh so many awesome books!
Ah Written in Red. One of my favourite series that holds true one read through after another.
Rockin that sultry Phoebe voice ;) Get well soon!
Smelly cat smelly cat…what are they feeding you
loooool
A ladies guide to mischief and mayhem was so good for anyone who hasnt read it yet!
Vespertine is a lot of fun, and it’s the first book in a series but also contains a complete story in book 1, so it has that stand-alone feel. It was really atmospheric and darkly funny, which I didn’t expect.
Yes all the Anne Bishop please

Interesting!! I am excited to compare now!
100% agree here!
The rules of magic however is fantastic. It was so so good!
@@jadorej9 Agree. I am just starting The Book of Magic
Definitely agree! The book was boring
Get well soon.... u get some great books!! Happy reading to u!! 🍁🍂
Written in red is my favourite series ever!! I hope you'll love it too, the first book is the perfect winter read!!

I got The Keeper Of Night this month as well and it’s so good! Took me out of my reading slump and the first BOTM I’ve enjoyed in awhile.
I can’t wait to read it!
@@PeruseProject what do you think of the Book Of The Year finalists they chose?
I just got the Lunar Chronicles series, I'm really excited to read it!

Just picked up Ember in the Ashes! Super excited!
I love the Practical Magic series and the movie is AMAZING!!!!!!!

Great stack of books. Enjoy reading. Blessings.
you always upload the day my exams are done!! Such a nice way to celebrate!😂😂
I love Amor Towles! I’ve read ROC and AGIM and I’m looking forward to reading this latest. This is a great haul! And I love your sweater💕
This was such a good haul Regan. Written in red sounds like an intriguing read. I have downloaded The Cursed Carnival hoping to get to it soon.

You always look nice in your videos but something is really working for you in this one bc you look amazing!!
Just keep in mind that with practical magic, the book and movie could not be more different. Both amazing in their own ways however.

I love that yellow chair. I’m attempting my second read thru of wheel of time in prep for the series.

More books to add to my ever growing tbr!
I absolutely love Amor Towles, and Rules of Civility has been my favorite so far.
Practical Magic is an amazing movie (and a so-so book), but I would highly recommend the prequel The Rules of Magic, HBO have the rights too so we could potentially see a show one day.
I got Keeper of the Night as well. It.sounds sooo good!
Just finished The Family, great read!
Little Thieves sounds so cool and it's a duology.
I was shocked by how much I enjoyed the death of Jane Lawrence.
Good plot, perfectly spooky, and great audiobook.
I really need to read practical magic

I love practical magic (the movie). So good!
I love how Rilakkuma is just looking disapprovingly down at Regan in the thumbnail 😂
Movie is definitely better than the book when it comes to Practical Magic. That’s actually one of the few I DNF. Definitely share your thoughts!
i got an ARC of the keeper of night a few months ago and it was an IMMEDIATE 5 star, SO GOOD! i can’t wait to get my own physical copy to annotate. far from the light of heaven sounds so similar to across the universe by beth revis! i’d give it a shot if you haven’t read it!
i just finished the haunting of hill house and i’m a sobbing mess. this was the perfect pick me up video 🙌🏻
Practical magic is one of my favourite movies!
Love a good haul video!
