My family being in town means I haven’t been able to read anything but I have made it my mission to do spooky things. We went to a gothic and occult stores today and yesterday we went to a day of the dead themed restaurant. So, I’m here with you in spirit and in actions, ha

OMG the chorus lyrics were SO CUTE!!! The entire video and lyrics were SO MUCH FUN!!!! What a gift to BookTube 😂😂🥰🥰 thank you for making such a fun Winterween experience, having fun over on IG as well!
Every now and again you encounter a book or a movie that makes you feel the writer, or the director, or one of the actors was talking to you and you only directly. It's a wild experience which most people seem to like when it happens regardless what it they're saying when they're talking to us. Maybe they're scolding us for intolerable misbehavior? It doesn't seem to matter, does it? It's just so cool when you see that movie and decide that's me, that's me!
My aunt lived in South Korea and taught English from 2004 to 2022 and she raves about it all the time and how she wishes she could move back. Truly a beautiful place from what I’ve seen photographically and through video calling over the years from her!
My winterween tbr. Witch prompt: Serpent& Dove (maybe) or Kiss Curse. Winter themed prompt: Reread of Bear and the Nightingale Purple on cover: The Family Game W in the title: (no idea yet) Read in the dark: Breathless
I loved the music video! You made Dead of Winter sound so good that I picked it up from the library. I have finished 4 of the prompts and they all fit into my goal of reading what I own. I DnF’d one of my first picks and rearranged some picks. So I picked up another of January TBR books for the last prompt, Ink Blood Sister Scribe with a purple cover. This is a great way to get going with my reading goals. I am loving Winterween!
I wonder if you'd like Babel, since I know you loved R.F. Kuang's latest and you're doing a Dark Academia re-read. I just finished it like two weeks ago and fell absolutely in love with it.
Loved your video of Rachel with your song. Finished Payback's a witch but unlike you liked it a lot because of the Fantasy element 😂 I guess I'm rediscovering my love of Fantasy. About to start my next read for Winterween and it's Thornhedge by T. Kingfisher. Felt like the cover was giving me winter vibes.... Hope the rest of your book reading goes well this week!
Tank’s expression after you said he was saying “tell me more” he was like “shes not playing around. Its super creepy.” 😂 love a good darcy coates book!
Finished my first book Friday and then didn’t get any reading done yesterday and barely any today 😂😂 I’m hoping I can bring back the momentum I started it with
I loved the music video you and your sister did it was awesome. I definitely will have to check out dead of winter and paperback's a witch .A guest In the House. Definitely want to see Past lives to
I am getting into Darcy Coates lately and just love everything I’ve read. Gallows Hill was also super creepy and I’ve just started From Below now. Can’t wait to check out Carrow Haunt next!
Loved the music video 💜💜💜 and so far my winterween is goin great i was able to to finish two books one of them was a arc i got called between the blue by nikki witt and its a hockey romance n the way i sobbed reading this book i absolutely loved it it comes out January 10th and I also read tokyo everafter by emiko jean n this book was so cute i loved it n right now im reading if we were villains n bookshops and bonedust
Absolutely loved the music video!! I was so excited to watch it and you guys delivered!! Such an amazing song❤ Really enjoyed the vlog as always and No one can know is part of my tbr so I’m looking forward for your thoughts!!❤
Darcy Coates actually has a novella called Ghost Camera, and for some reason it really spooked me! Her books have been hit or miss for me, so I i was excited about that one!
My first book for the readathon was also Dead of Winter by Darcy Coates and it was 4.5 stars for me and is up there with my favourite horror books ever. Right now I have it as marking off snowy read and a book with a w in the title but I might end up reading Winters Orbit as well. Then, I read The Ancient Magus’ Bride volume 11 for the prompt read in the dark. The Darkness Outside Us is going to be my purple prompt and I haven’t picked a witchy read yet. Love the music video and look forward to new ones in future weens.
I’m happy to hear that I’m not alone feeling lost with leech. I had put it down last year I was about 50% in the book but I think I’m of picking it up this week and finish the book. I just read nightingale which I love but broke me. My next book on my tbr is Mary and sundial. 😊📚🕯️☕️ love the music video!!!
I also gave Dead of Winter 4 stars! It's such a fun one but is definitely a different vibe from the rest of her books I've read. A Guest in the House looks super cool so I think I'm going to grab it from my library! I also dnfed Leech and I was so sad about it 😭 I was super intrigued at first but then it got really boring for me and I didn't like the writing at all. I'm having so much fun with Winterween so far, thanks for hosting!!
I'm just doing one vlog for the whole week especially since it's my first vlog ever. 😂I'm reading Payback's a witch right now. I'm only 25% in so no solid opinions yet.
Thank you so much for the vlog!! It was so fun to watch, especially with the little clips from the reading sprints on TH-cam yesterday (I was there for the first two sprints, before falling asleep.) So far my reading hasn't gone as well as I would liked, I have yet to finish a book, but I am enjoying the one I am reading. This has video has definitely improved my mood quite a bit.
I just finished What the River Knows by Isabel Ibañez and I did enjoy it but I feel like its a book that needs to be read physically, I listened to the audiobook and I feel like I missed something somewhere. Now halfway thru Dark Water Daughter and Im loving it. Been seeking female pirate themed books since devouring the Adventures of Amina El Sharafi and this one has pirates and a female main protagonist so it works.
The music video was amazing! Rachel makes a fabulous witch indeed, and you have such an incredible voice, Gabby!
Thanks so much!! ❤

I love Back To October and Rachel makes the most beautiful witch!! Rachel was living her best life! #witchgoals

I joined the sprints yesterday and LOLed at Gavin’s reaction to you DNFing Leech.
😂😂😂

Love it 😍 so sweet ❤
The music video!! So much fun!! You and Rachel did an amazing job on it! It adds so much fun to the readathon 💜❄️🧙♀️
thank you!!
Love the song/music video! I’m enjoying Winterween so much.
If you're interested in a queer Korean book I'd recommend Concerning My Daughter by Kim Hye-Jin.
Past Lives broke my heart wide open 💔 soooo good and really snuck up on me, A24 strikes gold yet again 🏆
ahhhh yes it's so great!!!
Great vlog and song.
My first book for the readathon was also Dead of Winter by Darcy Coates and it was 4.5 stars for me and is up there with my favourite horror books ever.

I just read nightingale which I love but broke me. My next book on my tbr is Mary and sundial. 😊📚🕯️☕️ love the music video!!!
For the witch book I'm going to reread Serpent and Dove since its about a witch and a witch hunter in a arranged marriage. Or maybe the Kiss Curse.
The music video was awesome! Haha. Completely relate - October girlie here! So fun
I also gave Dead of Winter 4 stars! It's such a fun one but is definitely a different vibe from the rest of her books I've read. A Guest in the House looks super cool so I think I'm going to grab it from my library! I also dnfed Leech and I was so sad about it 😭 I was super intrigued at first but then it got really boring for me and I didn't like the writing at all. I'm having so much fun with Winterween so far, thanks for hosting!!
35 winds is pretty common winds for where I live
The past week we been having 50 mph winds
Strong winds still scare me
Gavin’s reaction to your DNF 😂😂😂
I'm just doing one vlog for the whole week especially since it's my first vlog ever. 😂I'm reading Payback's a witch right now. I'm only 25% in so no solid opinions yet.
Girl you're so funny 😆love the music video!
Your voice is awesome and Rachel gorgeous! Two talented ladies.
Thank you so much!
The music video was so cute! I loved it!
You are so creative. Loved the music video and the readathon concept. Dead of winter was so surprising good.
Thank you!
Thank you so much for the vlog!! It was so fun to watch, especially with the little clips from the reading sprints on TH-cam yesterday (I was there for the first two sprints, before falling asleep.)

Thank u for the cheesy music video, I didn't know I needed that 😅 love it. And yes pls produce one for each 'ween' reading event.
I just finished What the River Knows by Isabel Ibañez and I did enjoy it but I feel like its a book that needs to be read physically, I listened to the audiobook and I feel like I missed something somewhere. Now halfway thru Dark Water Daughter and Im loving it.

OMG!! The music video!! Your voice, the lyrics… SO SO good!!!!!! 🙌❤️✨
thank you!!
