I swear you always make me laugh. Ali, you're so funny, and I just love your energy! Omg, how cool would it be to junk journal all of those cool chip bags and snack wrappers. And keep embracing your wavy hair. It looks awesome! I'm immediately added SCRAP to my wishlist, it sounds AMAZING!! P.S. Too funny about you scaring your brother. Thanks for sharing parts of your life and childhood with us. And your new purse is sooo cute!!
sports mafia romance drama ... you are literally describing the foxhole court ahahah go !!read it!! i was already pretty sure you would like it but now i really really think so
@@AliDoisRead yay ok hope you have fun:D just so you know it is a slow burn so the romance doesn't kick in until book 3 fully but there's still lots to enjoy before then
The Lion Women of Tehran is a great choice. The Doublemint gum is in Chinese. Shrimp chips are so good. Paula is a great name for a small purse because it seems so random. Or maybe Melanie.
If you want to like half-quit caffeine you could always give yourself a cut-off time. I'm not allowed to have caffeine after 2 PM or my sleep is weird and my anxiety spikes. But I still get to have my morning/early afternoon fix!
hiiii Ali I adore you xoxox I LOVE Wool, impulse bought it at a thrift store like 10 years ago and then read every other one of Hugh Howey’s books and love them all (Sand was a very cool one). also I’m reading a Once Upon a Book Club book I just got ‘the Maui Effect’ so lots of it is in Hawaii and made me think of you! 😘🌺
i just read the favorites and i have a similar opinion! it's like a 3.5-4ish for me.. the first half was better than the second half totally agree a show would be a better format!!
I will be buying the favorites simply for the shiny gold cover 🥲 I’m already seeing it so hyped lol Oooo love that cover of salems lot! Salems lot was really fun, def a solid 4 stars for me. I recently bought orbital too and excited about how teeny it is. Your Ring story ☠️ your poor brother!!! 😂
Cannot wait to know your thoughts on The Favorites! And ok I might need to buddy read Orbital with you because I’m kinda intimidated 😮💨 Lmao he would be happy to know you sympathize for the ring trauma I inflicted upon him 🤣
I read Salem's Lot a few months ago, and gave it 4 stars. Overall it's a bit cheesy (like an 80s horror movie), but it has some super creepy moments. Pretty amazing that it was only his second novel. I love watching your vids, your enthusiasm for the books makes me want to immediately stop watching youtube and start reading!
@ yes girl, I get you. I am you. We are one. We are monstrillio. I’ll have a chewy lil Monstrilo that I can chew on. Like an everlasting gobstopper. Live in my cheek forever.
I recently read Ring for a booksta buddy read and it was sooo good! The book and Hollywood movie are very different. The Japanese movie is also very different to the book, but it is fun to watch it right after reading 😂 For Stephen King, I'd recommend The Shining and Misery ❤ those are some of my faves ❤
Love your curls! Love your purse, except how do you fit a book in it? Wool is fantastic!! It's a series on Apple TV+ (I think) called Silo. Second season is about to start if I'm not mistaken!
HELLOOOOO JUMP SCARE I DIDNT EXPECT TO SEE MYSELF ON SCREEN AAHHHHHH U GOT SUCH A GOOD ONE I HOPE YOU LOVE I WHO HAVE NEVER KNOWN MEN .. I expect a vlog on it miss ma'am 😌 also how funny that you say that im "your influencer" when I was literally just telling my bf that you're my fave booktuber heheheh 💗🤭
Maybe I'm wrong, but isn't The Ring a remake of a Japanese movie? So if that book is based in Japan, it might be the story the original movie is based on.
also i got the kind of monster you had in the last vlog where you were trying to quit caffeine but then needed a monster and anyway you influenced me the wrong way ☠️
It’s simple, when Ali posts, I drop everything and watch

My brain releases happy chemicals when Ali uploads 🥺🥺

I’m sick at home with the flu, so when I saw a 48 MINUTE Ali vlog I was so sat ❤❤❤
Oh nooooo I hope you feel better quick! 🥺
I’m so with you on the literary bent to other genres 🤞🏼🤞🏼 and I’ve also been meaning to read I who have never known men!,😅
Literary fill in the blank is where it’s at 😂
Your joy in little things gives me life
🤠
I love your vlogs so much and your enthusiasm for ~*~ literally everything ~*~ it's so contagious !

exhausting is definitely the right word for The Favourites!
Heath is such a red flag for me
Totally agree with your thoughts on The Favourites!
"I can check my teeth at dinner" 😂

@@AliDoisRead yay ok hope you have fun:D just so you know it is a slow burn so the romance doesn't kick in until book 3 fully but there's still lots to enjoy before then
@ that honestly sounds wonderful 😭

totally agree a show would be a better format!!
Glad I’m not alone!
Great vlog. I loved Pet Sematary when I read it many years ago. I gotta find the pretty edition with the gray "Church" kitty. ☕❄️👻😻📚
😸
I will be buying the favorites simply for the shiny gold cover 🥲 I’m already seeing it so hyped lol
Oooo love that cover of salems lot! Salems lot was really fun, def a solid 4 stars for me.

Cheesy 80s horror sounds like a vibe 😂 Thank you!
You got some amazing things at the mall and that bag…hello!!!
Love her 😭
Ooh I just bought Thirst. Excited to hear your thoughts!
The first half was LITERALLY my perfect book 🤩 I hope you love it!
Ooh, I actually really like Salem’s lot ! I gave it 4 stars 🫶🏻
Yay! That demon child on the back has my attention 😂
Giiiirrrrrl the Thirst and Monstrillio unintentional connection is *smacksmacksmack* I ate em up
I need to just physically chew and eat Monstillio, it needs to live inside me now 😅 [I hope you appreciate my intensity here]
@ yes girl, I get you. I am you. We are one. We are monstrillio.

Im so glad it’ll be different! That way I can’t see what’s coming 🫣
Those two king books are definitely on my tbr!!
❤❤❤
The crunchy donettes are my shitttttt. I didn't discover them until I lived on the west coast and they are the best.
I was not expecting them to be so good but damn!!
I also love watching people watch my favorite shows 😂
I spend hours doing this! It brings me so much joy 😂
“I love this sh$&, it smells almost like nothing” 😂
Lololol
Love not a perfume! I mix it with Gucci bloom
Oooh I’ll have to check that scent out!
Love your curls! Love your purse, except how do you fit a book in it? Wool is fantastic!! It's a series on Apple TV+ (I think) called Silo. Second season is about to start if I'm not mistaken!
Lmao I need one of those bookmark purses 🤣
Oh wow ok now I want to read it for sure!
31:48 DYING AT THE SLIP UP OF PEE IN PEOPLES MINDS 😂
i was excited to see i who have never known men in your haul!!
🤣🤣🫢
The Favorites was the absolute best book I’ve read in a long time. First 5⭐️ book for me in 2025.
Yay! I’m so glad you loved it!
Hungerstone has both US and UK stunning covers!
Oh my word I just looked up the uk one ITS SO GOOD!
@AliDoisRead Right? I love that the trend of classical looking art on covers!
BABY KOI!!!!!!!!
🥹
Please read Wuthering Heights, I desperately need to hear you talk about it! I genuinely think you'd enjoy it more than The Favourites!!
I meant to say at the end, this book got me so pumped to read Wuthering Heights! Definitely getting to it soon!
Read The Children on The Hill; I hope you like the twist.
My goodness you just made me very curious!!! Upping on my tbr 🤔
HELLOOOOO JUMP SCARE I DIDNT EXPECT TO SEE MYSELF ON SCREEN AAHHHHHH U GOT SUCH A GOOD ONE I HOPE YOU LOVE I WHO HAVE NEVER KNOWN MEN .. I expect a vlog on it miss ma'am 😌 also how funny that you say that im "your influencer" when I was literally just telling my bf that you're my fave booktuber heheheh 💗🤭

Yes I believe so!
I think you might like Lucy Undying especially since you just read Dracula. It’s kind of a retelling and a sequel combined.
Oooh intriguing!
Great video 🥰
Thank you!
I'M SO EXCITED TO SEE U READ SALEM'S LOT and also i who have never known men was my favorite book of 2024 i hope u like them both omg
Whooo!!!
Ali i just finished We Used to Live Here and i need you to create a discord or something immediately bc i NEED to talk about it!!
also i got the kind of monster you had in the last vlog where you were trying to quit caffeine but then needed a monster and anyway you influenced me the wrong way ☠️
😱 omg what is your knee jerk rating???
Lmaoooooo I’m so sorry haha it is a disease (that I feed willingly 😈)
@@AliDoisRead 3.75 BUT ONLY
