NOT THE FALLING LEAVES IN THE BACKGROUND 🥰 honestly this was so timely as I have realized that I, in fact, have already purchased most of these because they sounded interesting OR I liked the cover and now they have been moved up my TBR!!
Leaves were not paid actors but they really should have been. :) That is so cool that you have most of these already! They are such good ones, and I hope you find some 5 stars out of 'em!
Of course you just had to have the most amazing cosy setting for this!!! Such a feast to the eyes ❤ I just needed this video to be an additional 30mins longer ~ I’m super intrigued to pick up The Binding & the Unmaking!
By far the best book channel! I don't typically like to know a lot going into the books I read, but I can't help but want to hear what you have to say! (your video setting/music/sound, etc..) I bought my 9-year-old Mara Daughter of the Nile bc of how you described hearing it for the first time! I'm thankful your husband talked you into starting a channel!
im sorry but that background ... well done nature and good choice olive !!! please make more videos in this spot pretty please. Also the content is perfecto love it.
I absolutely love all of your videos!!! Your descriptions are so great! And I love how you hold up the book while you talk about it so we can see the cover
You’re my only BookTube I’m watching and I enjoyed this one so much! I’m adding a couple of these to my TBR! I’ve heard of some of them through all the Bookish boxes communities I watch, but it was nice to hear some really good discussion about WHY these books are so good. Thank you! ❤
So Olive, I'm back. I just finished the book of doors. THANK YOU SO MUCH. This is the best book that I read this year. Best of the best. I loved everything about it !
I was unsure on the June Farrow one, but you explained it much better than I’ve heard - I may have to put that on hold at the library. But now I am stoked to get into The Bear and the Nightingale, got lucky and found that in the thrift store for $2! But that will for sure go on the winter TBR now!
Wow that background is beyond amazing. Living in the arm pit of Texas we dont have trees. Still blows me away anytime i see a beautiful scene. Amazing book recommendations. Have them on stand by at my library 😊
Awe yay! I'm glad you found some new books to add to your list. And I hope you can still get a little taste of Autumn sometime where you live! Wishing you all the cozy reading vibes.
Thank you for the great suggestions! The summary you made of the binding made me think of the book the giver by Lois Lowry regarding the magic system and the theme of memory. I wonder if you have read it, I have really liked it and am intrigued to try the binding.
Yessss Bear and the Nightingale. One of my faves and definitely deserves more attention. I read the whole trilogy in a weekend lol Loved the insight into Russian folklore.
Loved June Farrow and The Bear and The Nightingale! Will have to check the others out. And I’m going to add to the people saying that that background is superior 😍🍁🍂
New subscriber here. Hi! 🤗 I haven't heard a really good in depth book review like yours in such a long time... I'm not into these life/reading vlogs the booktube community is doing these days....I just like to sit, chill and listen to people just talking about books. And I really appreciate your channel for this! It feels very genuine and so peaceful just to listen and talk about them ☕ 📖 🍂 Okay- I'm shocked that no body is talking about these books!!!!! I'm totally adding all of them to my list ASAP!!! Thanks for recommending and giving your spare time to talk about these beauties 💕✨📚
Wow that means so much to me. Thank you for taking the time to comment that. Sometimes I get a little in my head about it, like maybe I should be doing more 😅 but at the end of the day I just want to sit down and talk about books so thank you for joining along for the ride! And I’m glad you were able to find some new reads to add to your TBR!
How did I find your channel only now? ♥️ Love your beautiful set up, the way you describe the books . And thanks so much for your recommendations - I just got two of those for the airplane for my next vacation!
And the Bear and the Nightingale is one of my favs as well, they I reread nearly every year in winter ♥️ (right after re-reading the Night Circus every autumn 🍂 )
Recommendation for you is The Square of Sevens. Amazing book with an ending that will leave your jaw on the floor. Btw..... the bear and the nightingale is my favorite trilogy.
I like to include a bit more detail in my reviews than just what’s on the back cover a book - but I never spoil any endings. People are always welcome to click away if they don’t want to have any other details 👍🏻
Thank you for exposing the masses to "The Book of Doors". Was a 5 star for me and imo not enough people are aware of this book or talking about it. Soooo good
The only book-related thing I have to say is that I’ve only read one of these, but didn’t care for it myself. BUT: this video is stunning in video quality and audio quality!
You're a better person than me. I read to escape into more fun, love, battles, romcoms, fantasy, and UF type books, etc. I'm not a huge fan of heavy literature.🙈
Haven't read any of these and definitely interested in all three! Also, off subject but you remind me of Samantha Ravndahl here on TH-cam, very pretty! Love the background too!
Love your videos! Thank you for the effort you put into them. Could I make a suggestion that you please put the name of the book and author on the top corner of the screen as you speak of them, helps me search them as I watch the video 😊
I deleted TikTok a year ago because BookTok was so toxic and the longer I was on it, the more I realized that the only books that really got attention, felt like self insert smut fanfictions. It was kinda disappointing and I felt my brain rotting the more I spiraled into that genre. Your channel is such a breath of fresh air for someone who wants to keep getting back into reading, but doesn’t one boring, one dimensional characters and surface level plots that exist only to drive sexual tension and smut.
Dang, thank you so much. That means so much to me. ❤️ I’m glad I can somehow contribute to a bit of positivity in the book community, and I hope you’re able to find some good new reads you can connect with!
The only book I’ve read on this list is The Binding, and unfortunately it was my most disappointing read this year! I was so intrigued but it was a 2 star for me
It’d be sad if you let that stop you from reading the book or make you miss out on a beautiful story. In my experience, you get used to it quickly and it didn’t hinder my reading.
I’m sorry but as someone who has not read a few of these books yet I feel like you’re including way too many plot spoilers in your reviews. I haven’t read June farrow but I’m pretty sure we’re weren’t supposed to know this book has time travel and I’m sad that I won’t be able to discover that from the book now. 🙁
This background is EVERYTHING
It was amazing!
Like the leafs are glittering
The set up!!! Wow. You're definitely one of the best in the "Book Tube" community!
Agreed!
Wow thank you so much!! That means a lot ❤️

@@olivesbooknook tell the leaves I will pay them to come to Austin it is SUMMER HERE STILL!! 🫠
Of course you just had to have the most amazing cosy setting for this!!! Such a feast to the eyes ❤ I just needed this video to be an additional 30mins longer ~ I’m super intrigued to pick up The Binding & the Unmaking!
Haha, thank you so much!! I couldn’t resist the fall background for this one 🍁
By far the best book channel! I don't typically like to know a lot going into the books I read, but I can't help but want to hear what you have to say! (your video setting/music/sound, etc..) I bought my 9-year-old Mara Daughter of the Nile bc of how you described hearing it for the first time! I'm thankful your husband talked you into starting a channel!
Oh my gosh I don’t even know what to say. That’s so nice 🥹❤️ thank you so much!
The vibes of this video are immaculate 🍂🍁
Also, every one of these books got added to my TBR. Your ability to sell a book is impeccable haha
Ahhh thank you so much! Hope you find something you love ❤️

Oh I love the video set up. its so soothing and autumn vibes
Ah thank you!
im sorry but that background ... well done nature and good choice olive !!! please make more videos in this spot pretty please. Also the content is perfecto love it.
Thank you!! :)
Love these recommendations! I have The Binding & have had The Book Of Doors on my TBR for a while, but this motivated me to buy it already! 💕
Oh yay! I hope you like them!
I love that you shared The Other Valley!!! No one talks about it and it was soooooo good!!!
It definitely deserves to be talked about more!!
Love the backdropl Beautiful colors!
🍁❤️
I absolutely love all of your videos!!! Your descriptions are so great! And I love how you hold up the book while you talk about it so we can see the cover

Haha, love it!
So Olive, I'm back. I just finished the book of doors. THANK YOU SO MUCH. This is the best book that I read this year. Best of the best. I loved everything about it !
AHHH wait this is so cool to hear!! That makes me so happy wow. So glad you liked it that much and found a great new read!

Thank you for the great suggestions! The summary you made of the binding made me think of the book the giver by Lois Lowry regarding the magic system and the theme of memory. I wonder if you have read it, I have really liked it and am intrigued to try the binding.
Yes they are similar! I love the giver. The binding definitely feels like a more adult version of the giver, and MUCH longer haha.
Yessss Bear and the Nightingale. One of my faves and definitely deserves more attention. I read the whole trilogy in a weekend lol Loved the insight into Russian folklore.
It’s so good!!
Thank you for making this video!
The book of doors sounds very interesting. Will definitely be adding that to my tbr!!
Yay! I hope you like it!
Your videos are so fun to watch! You’re quickly climbing my favourite TH-camr’s list haha.
Wow thank you!!! That’s so nice!
Yes, to the Binding! Total Cover Buy for me an fell in love with it. So good.
Yes it's so good!
One of the few people I trust with book recommendations. Thank you !
WOW thank you!! That means a lot 🫶🏻
Agghhhhh The Book of Doors was my favorite read this year!! Along with The Ministry of Time! Soooo good!!!
I literally just finished the ministry of time HOLY CRAP it’s so good
@@olivesbooknook YESSSS!!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
Love the way you describe every single book. I’m putting all of them to my tbr list!!
Yay!!! So exciting!
Loved June Farrow and The Bear and The Nightingale! Will have to check the others out. And I’m going to add to the people saying that that background is superior 😍🍁🍂
Ah thank you so much! I hope you can find some great new reads to had to your list. :)

Absolutely love your channel. You are truly one of the best and most authentic book tubers I have come across.
This is so nice wow 🥹 thank you so much!
I'm HERE for this autumnal vibe!
SAME 🍁🍂
Wow, those all sound terrific and I love that you filmed outside. It looks beautiful.
Thank you! It was gorgeous.
The Bear and the Nightingale is such a beautiful book! I totally agree that it deserves more hype.
Absolutely!!
How did I find your channel only now? ♥️

And the Bear and the Nightingale is one of my favs as well, they I reread nearly every year in winter ♥️ (right after re-reading the Night Circus every autumn 🍂 )
That’s so nice, thank you! And yay so glad you found some new books to read!
Omg I re-read the night circus every autumn as well and the bear and the nightingale in the winter! They are so seasonally cozy.
Okay, yep, instant sub. The Bear and the Nightingale--and Katherine Arden in general--is one of my all-time faves and it NEVER gets talked about!!!
Yay hi!! And yes people really need to talk about TBATN more often. One of the best!
These sound so good!! especially Book of Doors and The Binding!
They’re such good reads!
@@kristin_Robin2311 book of doors was a 5 star for me. So good and unique
Thanks for helping to promote these hidden gems
Recommendation for you is The Square of Sevens. Amazing book with an ending that will leave your jaw on the floor. Btw..... the bear and the nightingale is my favorite trilogy.
Oooh thanks for the recommendation! I’ll definitely look into it.
I hear so many amazing things about the unmaking of June farrow. I really would love to get to that soon!
It’s so nice! Definitely try to pick it up soon.
Background is spectacular, and the book recommendations are fantastic.
Thank you!!
The Binding has not left my mind in the last 2 years, it is absolutely stunning
Yes!!!
you have to give us more videos with this setting before winter comes!!!
Agh i know! It was so beautiful.
Olive, I am enjoying your videos so much ❤️
Thank you so much!!! That's so nice
For the Unmaking of June Farrow, the time travel aspect isn’t revealed for a bit. Might not want to include that bit in the pitch.
I like to include a bit more detail in my reviews than just what’s on the back cover a book - but I never spoil any endings. People are always welcome to click away if they don’t want to have any other details 👍🏻
will ALWAYS recommend the unmaking of june farrow!
So good!
Ooh I have the book of doors. Must bump it up my reading list.
It’s such a good one!
Thank you for exposing the masses to "The Book of Doors". Was a 5 star for me and imo not enough people are aware of this book or talking about it. Soooo good
It is so good! Definitely deserves to be talked about more.

Thanks!
THE WAY I SCREAMED WHEN YOU MENTIONED JUNE FARROW 😭😭😭 Adrienne Young does no wrong in my opinion. AMAZING stories! Yay!!!
Ahhh that’s amazing haha. I actually haven’t read any other Adrienne Young books but I need to!
@@olivesbooknook the first one I read was Spells for Forgetting, and I was hooked! Spells is an amazing fall read also, so now is the perfect time! 😉
You're a better person than me.
I read to escape into more fun, love, battles, romcoms, fantasy, and UF type books, etc.
I'm not a huge fan of heavy literature.🙈
i love reading to escape as well! i'm not really picky with the genres, i'll read just about anything.
Haven't read any of these and definitely interested in all three! Also, off subject but you remind me of Samantha Ravndahl here on TH-cam, very pretty! Love the background too!
Four books I meant! Lol I wasn't all the way done with the video but the 4th one I haven't read either. 😅
Awe thank you! That’s so sweet. I hope you find some new books that you love ❤️
Love your videos! Thank you for the effort you put into them. Could I make a suggestion that you please put the name of the book and author on the top corner of the screen as you speak of them, helps me search them as I watch the video 😊
Thank you!
ahhhh i love the book of doors so much
It's soooo good
The aestetic of this video is just perfect
❤️
And looove these recommendations 🙌🏽
Thank you!! Hope you found some new ones to add to your TBR
You are like the MKBHD of Booktube. Your videos are so...clean.
Wow thank you!

This set up though!!! 😍
:)
The only book I’ve read on this list is The Binding, and unfortunately it was my most disappointing read this year! I was so intrigued but it was a 2 star for me
It may not be for everyone, it's a pretty niche book!
Your live in the most beautiful place! 🧡🍂
I'm very grateful :)
Got the first four books right away😅 not gonna read about russia for obvious reasons
Loved the vibes of your video❤
Glad you could find some new reads 👍🏻
New location!! Stunning 🍂😍🍁
I couldn’t resist 🍁🙃
wow the background!
:)
Such a beautiful background..
It really was
I was going to add 'The Other Valley' to my TBR but I heard it doesn't have any quotation marks?? I'll have to pass :/
It’d be sad if you let that stop you from reading the book or make you miss out on a beautiful story. In my experience, you get used to it quickly and it didn’t hinder my reading.
@@olivesbooknookI'm a very slow reader so I think it would make it frustrating for me :( Is a reason why the author chose to exclude it?
i wouldnt say the book of doors is unpopular. it has a lot of readers and sales already
I must be missing that, seems like no one is talking about this gem. But I’m glad it’s getting some attention even if I don’t see it.
I’ve never heard of it and I’m deep on booktube ! and a bit on bookstagram
I’m sorry but as someone who has not read a few of these books yet I feel like you’re including way too many plot spoilers in your reviews. I haven’t read June farrow but I’m pretty sure we’re weren’t supposed to know this book has time travel and I’m sad that I won’t be able to discover that from the book now. 🙁
Just found your channel and I'm so glad I did! Wow can you sell a book! Also, your sweater is so pretty!
Ahh thank you so much! Welcome! ❤️
