I met Libba Bray at the first of the month and I told her I was surprised the last book didn't get a cover change. She rolled her eye and said that the cover changes for the series has been one of the biggest headaches of her career. Also one of the coolest authors I've ever met.
“If I gave a book less than 3 stars in 2014, you know it’s not good.” LITERALLY MY GOODREADS. It’s either 5 stars or 2 stars, there is no in between. Bless our younger reading selves.
It's so interesting to see everyone's book buying style. Emma probably unhauled more books than I own whereas Cindy owns like three books total. This is so relaxing to listen to while I work.
Honestly so much respect for unhauling books, even if it’s several years later! I love collecting books so it’s so hard for me to part with them, even if I didn’t like a book that much ):
Yes Emma! clicked on it the moment i saw it! just a suggestion, you should do a video where you sort Cassandra Clare characters into Hogwarts houses!!!!
Hi Emma, don't get rid of the signed books! You should have a special shelf dedicated to signed copies only. It would be so cool and after the years you can look at it and remember when you met those authors. Just an idea. Love your videos btw. Stay healthy
She already has multiple signed copies from most of those authors. Honestly, signed copies arent really anything special in my opinion, nor a reason to keep books you dont want.
I need to do this. I have a much smaller collection but still alot that I could do without. There is a little free library on the bike path I walk on so I am going to s Start taking one book each time I go. I hope your staying safe and healthy!
I feel like Red Rising is such an underrated series. I don't see many people talking about it so I got excited when you said the title but then I remembered this was an unhaul hahaha
My heart was in my throat when you decided to get rid of your signed copy of Trials of Apollo, honestly I know in the book world this would get me burnt at the stake but I would have cut out the signed page.
I just started City of Bone for the first time and I'm really enjoying it! Thank you for introducing me to it, I'm so glad I'm finally getting to it 😊❤️
The DEH musical made me so uncomfortable and I think you've really accurately expressed why. The way in which the main character manipulates the death of another is so deeply disturbing and it was really really upsetting for me to watch audiences connect with, sympathize with and cry over the main character despite how disgusting his behavior was.
Thank you! Someone else didn't like "Dear Evan Hansen"! I hated it, the soundtrack still has those themes too and I find it so problematic, but the music is really, really good!
This might sound crazy, but you could rip out the front personalise page as neatly as you can and then put it in the front of the other edition you have. I did it for an edition of Carry on and it turned out really well :)
So fortunate that you were able to get an autograph of Rick Riordan! 🖋️📚 I saw Willa the Wood from jessethereader. I recently read Aru Shah And The End Of Time by Roshani Chokshi. I enjoyed it. 👍👌 Permanent Record by Mary H.K Choi is a good one. It talks about ones direction in life. 📚💞👌👍
Totally not silly or materialistic to want a series to be all hardcover or paperback - especially since in most cases, the paperback is so much smaller and shorter than the hardcover, so it really sticks out when you look at your shelves!
I like that you give honest reviews. If you love it, talk it up (Cassie Clare), but if you don't like it, you tell us WHY you don't like it. This video is so real. 10/10 bb 😘
This isn't TECHNICALLY relevant to the video, but the movie of A Monster Calls actually broke me. I read the book and knew everything that happened and I STILL wasn't ready for that film emotionally lol
I think you’d really love My Plain Jane!! It’s funny, but it’s got some serious and really meaningful moments too. When you feel like you have time for it, you should definitely check it out again!
I need to do an unhaul. I have a lot of bookf from my local library sale that I either will never read or read once and don't love. I think a lot of them need to just go to better homes! Just because a book is unhauled doesn't mean we don't love it!
I am all for getting rid of books you aren't interested in, but as someone who absolutely does not consider herself a SciFi reader, Patrick Ness's More than This is in my top 5 books of all time. If you're ever in the mood for something speculative, it's definitely worth checking out!
I went to the Dear Evan Hansen musical recently, and it was AMAZING! You should definitely check out the sound track, It’ll change your whole perspective.
elastiuc exactly! It’s such a good musical and only reading the book doesn’t do the story justice. I feel like a lot of people don’t care about Dear Evan Hansen because of the novel
As someone who's unable to see the actual musical, I enjoyed the book bc it helped me understand the story more and made the soundtrack much more meaningful
I am on the heartbroken side... Seeing Pierce in here. But also I thought to unhaul Cassie's books kind of makes it even... Maybe. I kept them tho cause my grandma gifted them to me
Armada was good if you read it by itself but if you read ready player one, it's just a bit flat in comparison. I LOVED RPO even though the main character was such a "dude" in the annoying sense haha but it was an awesome adventure book!!
I’m not sure if your already planning to read it or not but you should try reading There Will Come A Darkness by Katy Rose Pool when you get the chance. Also love your videos your such a role model for me.
i had to read the testing trilogy for school in 8th grade, and that was my first experience with dystopian. i was so annoyed with the characters for focusing so much on romance while their lives were at risk, but apparently that’s a big thing in a lot of dystopian? lol reading it now i don’t think i would be bothered, but edgy 13 year old me hated that trilogy
Just trade them in at a used book store or donate them. I guess you could also list them as bundles. You could bundle the same genre, series or author together.
If your Trials of Apollo book isn't signed on the inside of the cover, why don't you just tear that page out and stick it in the copy you're keeping? (I mean, yes, book abuse, but also, personalized/signed....)
I, for one, love Dear Evan Hansen, but can see what you mean, even if I don’t personally agree with you. The book and the musical are different, and I do like the musical more, and I think you should listen to the soundtrack if you’re still considering it. It just holds a special place in my heart, because I listened to the soundtrack after reading the book and that got me into musical theatre, and I saw the show last summer. It’s just a special musical to me, and the book is good, too. The musical itself is so inspiring and left me in tears three times while watching the musical. But I will respect your opinion.
Hi Emma, I just want to thank you for making this video. Book unhauls are my favorite and I really needed something to pick me up lately so thank you for always making my day. I hope you're doing okay
when the this is where it ends the name sounded very dutch to me. So i googled her and it turns out she is a dutch author, most of the times you don't see that dutch authors make it big outside of the netherlands, so that was really interesting. but then again she writes in english so that makes a difference but it's still cool.
I can completely understand why Things I Should Have Known would not be a favorite and I could see why you would want to get rid of it. However, I love that book so much because I have a sister who has autism, it was a book that I related to more than any other book. I felt so represented and in a situation like mine that isn't something I can often find. For some reason, I felt the need to point this out. I would definitely recommend this if you are looking for autism representation, each case is different but I found it to be very accurate.
I borrowed a small bookcase from my neighbour so I can stall my books on there whilst I look for a new bookcase. Whilst sorting through my books, I did get rid of a few books, which is good but I think in the future I will definitely go through my bookshelfs xxx
I personally really enjoy seeing the process of taking books off the shelves and deciding which to keep even more than just seeing a list of the unhauled books, would you ever consider doing that? Otherwise great video:) Edit: you probably won't really have any unhauling to do for a long time after this huge unhaul but maybe an idea for the future haha
I met Libba Bray at the first of the month and I told her I was surprised the last book didn't get a cover change. She rolled her eye and said that the cover changes for the series has been one of the biggest headaches of her career. Also one of the coolest authors I've ever met.
“If I gave a book less than 3 stars in 2014, you know it’s not good.” LITERALLY MY GOODREADS. It’s either 5 stars or 2 stars, there is no in between. Bless our younger reading selves.
Characters are a huge part of books and that is why I love or hate so many different books
ErAmGr 62 true.
Same it sucks when you read a book with great ideas but horrible boring characters
i’m late but i totally agree! my motto is that if i wouldn’t like the character as a person in real life, i can’t read the book lol
Couldn't you change the dust jackets of "Heartless" so you'll have a signed copy AND the gorgeous cover?
see that's what i was thinking!
It's so interesting to see everyone's book buying style. Emma probably unhauled more books than I own whereas Cindy owns like three books total.
This is so relaxing to listen to while I work.
For Heartless... you could just put the white cover on the signed and
Personalized one!
Just came to the comments to say that!
Isabella Ogbolumani OMGosh! I loved heartless! Jest is my bae!
“if i have a book less than 3 stars in 2014 you *know* it’s not good” 😂😂😂
Honestly so much respect for unhauling books, even if it’s several years later! I love collecting books so it’s so hard for me to part with them, even if I didn’t like a book that much ):
Yes Emma! clicked on it the moment i saw it! just a suggestion, you should do a video where you sort Cassandra Clare characters into Hogwarts houses!!!!
HA, so many are going to into Slytherin.
@@cussundriakneal9904 i mean your not wrong lol!
Emma’s giving major Cher in the 70s vibes in her button up and with her hair straight 💕😍
Just switch the dust jacket of the white and black of heartless, I do that all the time to keep the edition I like with the dust jacket I like. ☺️
Yes I’m so glad you talked about receiving ARCs and how many of them are unsolicited!
i’m so excited to watch this! i hope you’re staying healthy and mentally ok during this time! sending love 💕
25 minutes of Emma is exactly what I needed on this Wednesday
Exactly!
Does this mean we’ll get a bookshelf organization or bookshelf tour??👀❤️
Just the switch dust jacket on the Heartless books!
Hi Emma, don't get rid of the signed books! You should have a special shelf dedicated to signed copies only. It would be so cool and after the years you can look at it and remember when you met those authors. Just an idea. Love your videos btw. Stay healthy
She already has multiple signed copies from most of those authors. Honestly, signed copies arent really anything special in my opinion, nor a reason to keep books you dont want.
I would recommend try Will Greyson, Will Greyson it's so beautiful 🥰
I need to do this. I have a much smaller collection but still alot that I could do without.
There is a little free library on the bike path I walk on so I am going to s
Start taking one book each time I go.
I hope your staying safe and healthy!
I feel like Red Rising is such an underrated series. I don't see many people talking about it so I got excited when you said the title but then I remembered this was an unhaul hahaha
Yay for unhauls! I love having a library of books but I also love unhauling books that don't spark joy anymore.
i have to go rn so here’s my bookmark for later lol 12:00
TaylorAngelina you’re a genius. why have I never thought of this
If I leave in the middle of a video, youtube remembers where I stopped and goes on from there. Is that not the case for everyone?
Charlie Book Fanatic i guess that only works if you’ve got your watch history on
@@CharlieBookFanatic nah all my videos start over if i pause and then come back. youtube is weird
Charlie Book Fanatic wait what how
Cut out the signed/personalized page and stick in another book of yours and then donate the book! That’s what I do :)
My heart was in my throat when you decided to get rid of your signed copy of Trials of Apollo, honestly I know in the book world this would get me burnt at the stake but I would have cut out the signed page.
I just started City of Bone for the first time and I'm really enjoying it! Thank you for introducing me to it, I'm so glad I'm finally getting to it 😊❤️
“My Plain Jane” is really good! In a cute , funny and innocent kind of way.
I dropped everything I was doing to come and watch this video ❤️ I love all your videos 💕
I don't even have 60 books on my shelf TO unhaul!
I only have 21 😕
Videos like this are obviously hints you need to build your collection lol
The DEH musical made me so uncomfortable and I think you've really accurately expressed why. The way in which the main character manipulates the death of another is so deeply disturbing and it was really really upsetting for me to watch audiences connect with, sympathize with and cry over the main character despite how disgusting his behavior was.
For heartless you can switch the covers. So that way you get both signedvand white cover
Hi emma loved the video can i ask what do you do with all your unhauled books their are so many in the video i would love to read xxx
random and off-topic BUT I really love your hair like this!! super gorgeous
i loved the unhaul!!!! you are so gorgeous omg I literally gasped when the skillshare cut came on,,, and I love your shirt!!!!!
Omg! As soon as I get some money saved, I'm going to buy all the Depop books I was interested in! So excited!
love a good unhaul that clears up room for new books!
Thank you! Someone else didn't like "Dear Evan Hansen"! I hated it, the soundtrack still has those themes too and I find it so problematic, but the music is really, really good!
Francesca Kyanda agree 100%! I was so happy to hear her say that.
I’m excited! I picked up My Plain Jane from your Depop! It will be cool reading it knowing it got to live on your shelves for a while!
0:56 *i didn’t know heather chandler came back from the dead and took over Emma’s channel*
😂
This might sound crazy, but you could rip out the front personalise page as neatly as you can and then put it in the front of the other edition you have. I did it for an edition of Carry on and it turned out really well :)
You should try listening to the soundtrack of Dear Evan Hansen! It's much better then the book and the songs are really good.
Yesssss
So fortunate that you were able to get an autograph of Rick Riordan! 🖋️📚
I saw Willa the Wood from jessethereader. I recently read Aru Shah And The End Of Time by Roshani Chokshi. I enjoyed it. 👍👌
Permanent Record by Mary H.K Choi is a good one. It talks about ones direction in life. 📚💞👌👍
What do you use to edit your videos?, you’re videos are always constructed so well💕
Totally not silly or materialistic to want a series to be all hardcover or paperback - especially since in most cases, the paperback is so much smaller and shorter than the hardcover, so it really sticks out when you look at your shelves!
I like that you give honest reviews. If you love it, talk it up (Cassie Clare), but if you don't like it, you tell us WHY you don't like it. This video is so real. 10/10 bb 😘
I love how much you do for the community!
i read uhaul first and went "my rights!"
This isn't TECHNICALLY relevant to the video, but the movie of A Monster Calls actually broke me. I read the book and knew everything that happened and I STILL wasn't ready for that film emotionally lol
god yes an emma upload is exactly what i needed today
With all my time off I have decided to finish the Shadowhunters Chronicles and I’m so excited!
I think you’d really love My Plain Jane!! It’s funny, but it’s got some serious and really meaningful moments too. When you feel like you have time for it, you should definitely check it out again!
I need to do an unhaul. I have a lot of bookf from my local library sale that I either will never read or read once and don't love. I think a lot of them need to just go to better homes! Just because a book is unhauled doesn't mean we don't love it!

Do you have any site recommendations on where to sell books?
since you can't sell your ARCs the best way to get rid of them is little free libraries
when I tell you I could listen to her voice on repeat for hoursー
This is brilliant! I so want to read chain of gold! I’ve got my owls readathon TBR over at my channel as well! 💕
I went to the Dear Evan Hansen musical recently, and it was AMAZING! You should definitely check out the sound track, It’ll change your whole perspective.
elastiuc exactly! It’s such a good musical and only reading the book doesn’t do the story justice. I feel like a lot of people don’t care about Dear Evan Hansen because of the novel
As someone who's unable to see the actual musical, I enjoyed the book bc it helped me understand the story more and made the soundtrack much more meaningful
Melissa Fiore I think the book is a great complement to the soundtrack or musical, but it doesn’t really hold up by itself
Lol i had tickets to go see it in london on the 14th but i live in Norway so had to cancel due to the coronasituation 😭
HisNeverland We went right before all the rest of the dates got cancelled!
Love your videos especially the Shadowhunter ones 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤❤️❤️❤️❤️💛💛💛💛

One Unhaul to find them, one Unhaul to bring them all and in the darkness bind them in the land of the Unhaul where the Unhauls lie.
More Than This is more of magical realism than science fiction. I love it too!!! 💞💞💞
the shade thrown towards ernest cline throughout this video gives me life
I’m not sure if your already planning to read it or not but you should try reading There Will Come A Darkness by Katy Rose Pool when you get the chance. Also love your videos your such a role model for me.
I find it sooo hard to unhaul books! Even if I didn't like a book, I hold on to it because it would break my heart too much to give them away!
i had to read the testing trilogy for school in 8th grade, and that was my first experience with dystopian. i was so annoyed with the characters for focusing so much on romance while their lives were at risk, but apparently that’s a big thing in a lot of dystopian? lol reading it now i don’t think i would be bothered, but edgy 13 year old me hated that trilogy
I own Tyler Johnson Was Here, I wonder if it will deliver, having read a couple of books tackling similar issues.
getting rid of we hunt the flame...my heart is broken!!!!
What’s the easiest way to sell books? Selling one at a time just sounds unpleasant and I have so many 😂😂😂. Love the video!
Just trade them in at a used book store or donate them. I guess you could also list them as bundles. You could bundle the same genre, series or author together.
If your Trials of Apollo book isn't signed on the inside of the cover, why don't you just tear that page out and stick it in the copy you're keeping? (I mean, yes, book abuse, but also, personalized/signed....)
Or tear it out and frame it ☺

Haha I totally would have just switched the dust jackets on heartless 😂
Stay safe 💕💕
Ooof, I always wanted to find the "This Is Where It Ends" full for free
i usually don’t watch unhauls but i wanted hear ur voice so bad.
love u❤️
Idk why I love watching unhauls
That's okay if you're giving up editions. Whatever makes you feel better in the long run 😍
I want that signed trials of Apollo so bad😢
Lol put the white dust jacket of Heartless on the signed edition?
Hi Emma, I just want to thank you for making this video. Book unhauls are my favorite and I really needed something to pick me up lately so thank you for always making my day. I hope you're doing okay

I have some books I want to sell but I have no idea where to sell them
I read If I Stay a while ago too
the fact that you live 30 minutes from me makes my heart happy and hopefully one day ill meet you😂😂😂
thank u for uploading we needed this
what is an emma video without a cut of another day
I feel like I was the only person who enjoyed An Abundance of Katherines. It wasn't my fave, but I liked it.
I'm sad that you're getting rid of We Hunt the Flame because I really loved it!
I can completely understand why Things I Should Have Known would not be a favorite and I could see why you would want to get rid of it.

Hi Emma, I hope you have a good week!☕️
When u pulled up the Scott Westerfeld book, I sweated a bit internally.
I borrowed a small bookcase from my neighbour so I can stall my books on there whilst I look for a new bookcase. Whilst sorting through my books, I did get rid of a few books, which is good but I think in the future I will definitely go through my bookshelfs xxx
THAT NEWLY GAINED SHELF SPACE?! power
Why don’t you put the white cover on the signed hard copy?
I personally really enjoy seeing the process of taking books off the shelves and deciding which to keep even more than just seeing a list of the unhauled books, would you ever consider doing that? Otherwise great video:)
Edit: you probably won't really have any unhauling to do for a long time after this huge unhaul but maybe an idea for the future haha
I loved the If I Stay movie even when it is really sad.
Are you still trying to decide which copy of Heartless you are getting rid of? I saw it wasn’t on your depop page sold or otherwise
Are you going do make an in-depth King of Crows book review? I would love to see it!!!
a piece of my heart broke when I saw red rising
That's a lot of books... 😱 I can't bring myself to unhaul anything...hat down to you!
