I wish my husband read books. He’s a good guy though and listens to me rant about my fantasy books. 😂 I love that you and Ian always have something to talk about. I just imagine you guys taking turns ranting about your current reads.
2:27-2:39 had me grinning so hard 🥰 i wish my Boyfriend loved to read so we could sit on our couch & talk about books together like this 🥺❤️ you guys are so cute
You and your husband talking about books together is so cute!! And I'm with you on the smut thing. I'll skip past it if I'm really enjoying the book, but if that is all the romance is based on, or it's a lot of smut, I DNF. I love the Bible verses at the begining as well, and you're so sweet!
I’m so glad I sent you Truly Devious and that you enjoyed it! I need to continue the series still. I would love to hear your thoughts on the rest of them.
From the middle of March I just couldn’t get through a book, I got halfway through 3-4 books and soft dnf’d them, I know I’ll go back and finish at some point but they weren’t giving me what I needed at the time, now this last week I’ve just read Powerless….. And OMG….. it was amazing, I loved it! It’s the first book I’ve managed to FINISH in almost 3 months 🙈 just had to find what my brain wanted ❤️
I feel the need to slightly defend Alternate Endings. I listened to it on audible which helped. There is nothing about her being a bad mom, she is actually a really good mom; she had a crappy breakup with her husband due to some issues I won’t spoil for those who read this, but the ex uses her work against her in some ways and so she is struggling with the fact she has to go to Ireland every couple of weeks. There is a lot of stuff that happens later on that explains so much of how it starts out. Anyway, like I said - listening to it verses reading it physically probably helped me because while it wasn’t my favorite I thought it was pretty good. At least to kill time while I was driving and running errands :). Just my 2 cents. 😊
YES 🥺 I said, “he kind of insinuates that she is a bad mom” I would never call her a bad mom as I thought she was a great mom. I was just trying to explain the sticky situation she is in with her ex husband! 🩷
@@AshlynnCalee ahhh I missed that one word! Sorry for the misunderstanding 🙂. Either way, if I hadn’t been listening to the book I’m not sure if I would have finished it or liked it??? I will never know
I know you posted this five months ago, but I have a recommendation for you. It is called The Series of Unfortunate Events. It is meant for 8-11 year olds I would say, but it is a mystery and has a great plot in my opinion. Also, I have a very long TBR. There is to many, I also keep buying books.
I love your dog their so adorable. Your dog reminds me of my dog they look alike and its really sad for me cause my dog named shadow passed away December 2022 and seeing your dog brings back memories
I am trying to make progress on my tbr too, so it kind of felt like a buddy tbr reading session lol! Hope you have a great weekend! Your videos always light up my day and make me excited to read 📚 ❤
I just finished Dark Age. Can’t wait to see your reaction when you read it. I’m sure Ian has probably talked to you about how the title really does match the tone of the book. There’s some scenes that were way more graphic and honestly difficult for me to read. It was still an incredible book and so action packed. Thought I’d mention the graphic content though because I wish I had known ahead of time just how insanely dark and brutal it gets. There’s two chapters towards the end that were especially gory. On another note, as soon as you mentioned the author breaking the fourth wall, I immediately thought of Tress of the Emerald Sea by Brandon Sanderson. That was my first book by him and it’s one of my new favorite books of all time. He also enjoys having the narrator speak to the reader and this book is such a fun adventure story based off the Princess Bride. I think you’d like it too. I highly recommend.
I love the Truly Devious series! It is really hard to stop reading after just one book 😂 good luck! Since it’s set at a school, we get to go from fall to summer, I think… There’s at least one book I remember being set during the summer, and that’s book 4😊
Hi Ashlynn!! Loved this video!! I’m actually in the middle of Truly Devious! I’m really loving it also! I want to read Everytime I Go On Vacation Someone Dies! I love when books break that 4th wall it’s one of my favorite tropes! I loved the part where you and Ian were talking books and laughing so much! I really think if y’all had a bookish podcast it would be such a hit! Think about it lol! Happy reading!🩷☺️
So glad you enjoyed Truly Devious. It's one of my favourite series. Maureen Johnson is such a good writer. I love her Shades of London series too, which is so worth the read as well.
Ashlynn, I'm currently reading the farseer trilogy and its sooo good! I definitely recommend! I'm going to go comment under ian's video now and let him know he should read it too lol. ❤
Yes, I've been WAITING for you to pick up Truly Devious!! I read the 3 main books in like a week last month. Highly recommend! It's just so fun and exiting!!
You are the sweetest person and I love watching your videos. You and Ian are very cute together and your videos bring me joy and peace after a long day. 😌 I wish I could be your friend in real life.
Here is my tbr The white fox triology these are German books Legendborn duology The night circus A thousand boy kisses Funny story The kiss of deception Beast changers a German book Millennia Magika This my June tbr Books I will add The hunger games I will see meaning let’s see which books I will add Update Dnf the night circus I can’t finish it
I am so glad that you really enjoyed Truly Devious. It is one of my favorite books. Also happy that you went back to Every Time I Go on Vacation, Someone Dies. Sometimes you just need a break and go back to a book later. You should see how many books I soft DNF. It is pitiful.....LOL. Hope you, Ian, and Meshack have an awesome weekend.
Hey Ashlynn! I love watching You and Ian's videos. I had a random question for you. I was an avid coffee drinker in the morning but want to switch to making myself matcha lattes instead bc I am not able to drink coffee like I could before. I was wondering if you have any personal preferences to a matcha powder brand. I have been looking for one online but there are so many brands. It's super overwhelming. Thank you! Jennifer 😊
HI! 👋🏼 oh my gosh, I love this question! I love the chamberlain coffee matcha online. It is a bit pricey but it is sooo good and definitely worth it. I like the plain matcha in the green tin from them! 🩷🥰
Hi friend! 👋🏼 I am planning on filming a Day in the life where I go into detail on how I make my matcha :) it should be up next week but for the time being I will say the brand of matcha powder has been a game changer for me. I prefer the chamberlain coffee brand of matcha! It is in a green tin and it’s just the plain matcha powder🥰 it shouldn’t be bitter but I also add a little bit of honey and cinnamon with some milk to make a latte! I add about 3-4 tbsp of warm water to my matcha powder add in the honey, cinnamon and mix! Just pour that on top of the milk and it is delicious! I hope this wasn’t confusing 😅🩷
Seeing you and Ian talk about books in this video made me realise how much I would LOVE a podcast hosted by the both of you!
Omg YES! 🙏
Agreed!!
seeing you and ian sit and talk about the book was the CUTEST thing ever🤭😭 you guys are sooooo adorable
I wish my husband read books. He’s a good guy though and listens to me rant about my fantasy books. 😂 I love that you and Ian always have something to talk about. I just imagine you guys taking turns ranting about your current reads.
You are just a ray of sunshine 🥹☀️
I love your content and the way you shine the joy of Jesus! 🩷
aww😭🩷 wow, thank you so much friend!
UGH... IRON GOLD

You are beautiful and just a great person and TH-camr and so happy for you and you make my day when I watch your videos
I love the way Ian looks at you
watching you and Ian talk about the book melted my heart🥹
Omg I have been waiting for your next video!!😂 I swear everyday I go on your channel to see if your new video is out!!😁😁🤣
I’m so glad I sent you Truly Devious and that you enjoyed it! I need to continue the series still. I would love to hear your thoughts on the rest of them.
i admire yours and Ian's relationship so much
I have been seeing a lot of people do these type of videos. I usually have two books to finish by the end of the month. Happy reading!
From the middle of March I just couldn’t get through a book, I got halfway through 3-4 books and soft dnf’d them, I know I’ll go back and finish at some point but they weren’t giving me what I needed at the time, now this last week I’ve just read Powerless….. And OMG….. it was amazing, I loved it! It’s the first book I’ve managed to FINISH in almost 3 months 🙈 just had to find what my brain wanted ❤️
I was patiently awaiting the next time you were going to post... you never disappoint!
Hey Ashlynn!! I’m just starting my Booktube journey, and I’m so excited to be a part of this community!! Any tips and tricks for starting out??
Never seen your freckles before, they’re so cute, show them off
I have to do the same thing sometimes. You’re allowed to “read” more than one at once/be in the middle of two books at the same time.
I loved Truly Devious too! I never hear anyone talk about it and wish more people would read it, I’m glad you liked it
I feel the need to slightly defend Alternate Endings. I listened to it on audible which helped.

thanks for adding to my tbr! I loved hearing your reactions to Every Time I Go On Vacation Someone Dies (that's a mouthful)!
You're in for an absolute treat with Dark Age. The only problem is said treat is flavored with the tears and depression.
Im excited for Monday I’m going to get a book haul
just wondering, is “ every time I go on vacation someone dies” spicy at all? Absolutely love this video btw (and all of your other videos)

I was literally cleaning while ‘watching’ this and of course when you said “don’t look at my armpit” I stopped what I was doing and looked 😹
HAHAHA🤣🤣🤣
We need to grow your channel. So cute.
My friend. If you like the way the 4th wall was broken you HAVE to read Everyone in my family has killed someone….
ITS FANTASTIC
I wish my husband would read books and talk with me about them! 😭😭
How do you make your matcha? I have some but I can't seem to get it right. Is it suppose to be bitter? Please help me.
