Beautiful pages! I love how you did the seasons for the last 4 books! I like hearing your opinions on the books and totally get comfort reading. So glad your cat is okay! 🌵
writing villains or complex, unlikable characters is totally fine, you just have to observe how the narrative treats them, and if they are rewarded for their behaviour or punished
I understand what you're saying, and although I agree to a certain degree, in the real world villains are rewarded all the time, so I don't necessarily think it's the author's job to pass proper judgement on villains. Sometimes it can just be a story, and it can be up to the reader how they want to interpret it, and what they want to take from the story. Sometimes it teaches us things if we can figure them out on our own, and not just be handed "the right opinion" wrapped up in a book.
Please read the Green Bone Saga. After hearing you read speak about the cruel Prince, I think you will def like the Green Bone Saga.
Thank you so much for the recommendation!
I had the exact same thought! It's one of those books where the author leaves you to make up your own mind about the characters. Both the protagonists and the antagonists do things that you may agree or disagree with... but you get very invested in them, whether you like them or not!
It's quite a different type of story from a lot of the books in these videos, so normally l wouldn't think of recommending it here, but it definitely has that quality of not judging its characters, so to speak, just showing you their actions and motivations, so you understand them, and get to know them like your own family. It's an excellent trilogy and wraps up really well.
We will always support you. Keep working hard
Thank you so much!
Totally agree with what you said about characters being morally ambiguous, I think that lots of the times readers forget that characters they like most of the time (zade meadows, cardan greenbriar, the darkling) are not morally upright as well, they might “redeem” themselves with certain acts but not all of their actions can be excused
E.g cardan bullied Jude for most of her life but all of that is excused because he’s “hot” and he fits into the narrative of a morally grey character destroying the world for the female main character (this does not make him a good person in general and people do not realize this enough)
I freaking loved the ACOTAR series. ❤❤❤
Assasins Blade is actually one of my favorite books from the Throne of Glass series and not comparable to A court of frost and starlight😊
That's great to know! I look forward to reading it this time around :)
Beautiful spreads as always! Also enjoyed your rant about authors and morally suspect characters, very much agree! 🌵
love all the designs 🌵😍🌵
🌵 beautiful spreads and a great book review Hedda, so glad your pussy cat is ok, they break your heart. Will definitely watch this again, I love having your vibe with me when I create xx
I love your videos! You always make the most beautiful spreads ❤️🌵
Seriously THANK YOU for your mini opinion section about authour’s writing about bad characters or bad decisions by characters. It IRKS me to nooo end when the person hates a part of the book because “oh the authour wrote it as if it’s okay”…. Do they not realize it’s meant to show the reader how that character makes mistakes and/or IS bad? How can they judge the book based on that. Maybe the authour writes that type of behaviour to show that it exists, or literally just because. I roll my eyes sooo hard when ppl lower ratings because of that.
Also, not me literally in the middle of an ACOTAR reread because of the same reason, life stress 🙂🙃
🔥🐦 The ballad of the songbirds and snakes. 🐦🔥
🔥🐦 Unprecedented engagement. The water lilies' colors existed non-partisanship. I grope like I exist in the Hunger Games because everything exists so problematic for me to execute in my homeland. 🐦🔥

The way I look at a book that has an unlikable character or theme is that sometimes real life is like that, and while I don’t think we should romanticize it it happens and not all books are sunshine and daisies. I also think that I might be one of the few people who really liked A Court of Frost and Starlight! I just didn’t want Feyre and Rhysand’s story to end! 🌵
I agree, I think that it's important to have unlikeable characters too, and not feel like we need to like every main character out there, or strive to be like them. They can just be people with flaws, not role models. I will admit I liked ACOFAS a lot better the second time around!!
🌵
I really appreciated your vent about people mistaking "writing about bad things and bad people" for "writer condones the thing they're writing about". It's a viewpoint I've been seeing more & more, and it both frustrates & disturbs me, so it's nice to see someone speaking up against it.
On a lighter note, your spreads are as beautiful as always. I loved the accidental four seasons theme you made for the ACOTAR books.
I'm not too familiar with current pop culture (I mean mostly literature and movies) but even I get annoyed by this, just by hearing people talk a book withthis mindset you described. I thought those were maybe exceptions, but obviously not.
There is lots to be said for authors that do NOT have the "villain" have their come-uppance, or having the social injustice solved within the novel or movie or theatre play. Oldschool political writers would consider it the reader's or the movie or theatre goer's responsibility to take this frustration or anger about the bad one being awarded, out into the real world and try to change things.
I really liked your discussion about main characters that are not exactly morally upright. I think it makes books far more interesting and realistic. It never makes me think anything negative about the author. Fantastic video. I am glad that your cat is better ❤❤. I lost a dog and a cat within the last year. We had them both for a very long time and it was devastating. One was sudden and the other we knew was coming due to his extreme old age. I totally understood what you meant about pre-mourning their loss and how emotionally overwhelming it is.
I'm so sorry for your loss!
2023 have absolutely been a year of rereads for me. I’ve needed the comfort you talked about, of returning to a story you know and love. Oh and I was so happy to hear you called the audiobooks dramatized because I did that and so many of my American friends corrected me and said they were graphic audio, and yes that’s the company who makes them but I would still explain them as dramatized.
I agree, "graphic audio" makes no sense haha! It's very much an audio play, in my opinion, and to be fair, even Graphic Audio calls them the dramatised versions haha!
Totally agree about the morality of fictional characters! I find it super interesting to read about characters who do horrible things that I would never condone in real life
🌵 I read The balada of the songbird and snake and I'm very conflicted with the ending 😂
I've would've wanted more information about Lucy and what actually happened to her at the end... but anyways, it is what it is!
I love the Throne of Glass series! And the prequel, The Assassin's blade it's so worth it. I usually recommend reading that book after the 3rd one (Heir of Fire) because it really becomes relevant in the 4th book.
Your reading journal spreads are my favourite)
I love watching your setups, they're always so beautiful ❤ Im also thinking of doing a Crescent City reread just before the new book comes out 🌵
🌵 loved it, he spreads look beautiful, love the simplicity. ❤ haven’t read any of the books that you mentioned, I do agree with the comment about the author and the characters, I think the real difference is, f it was well written or not, nothing else, if the person doesn’t like the character or thinks is not a clean book, then go read Christian authors books then 😂 those ones are clean and do bring a sense of joy reading them. Although I did read recently a Colleen book, for the first time, I find to be very confusing ending, because it left a lot of unanswered questions, I wouldn’t recommend reading her books. Thank you for making this video ❤
There is a difference between authors writing morally gray/wrong characters or dynamics and not necessarily saying that’s the “right” thing to be doing, and knowingly glorifying morally wrong or problematic behaviours (re Colleen Hoover AND especially JK Rowling) 🌵
Rereads are so comforting. ♥️
ACOTAR is the book series I've reread the most because they're so comforting to me too 🥹 I always cry with ACOWAR and with the novella too. Oh and I hope you like the sequel to The Cruel Prince! That whole series is also one of my favourites.
Your designs are always amazing but your spread for The Cruel Prince is uniquely stunning!!
Oh thank you!
beautiful video! 🥰🌵
🏜I like the single page spreads. I'm glad your cat is ok and hope the coming months are better for you.
Please read assassins blade. The stories actually came out before A Throne of Glass and are just really good prequels to help with world-building and understanding the past context.
I'm totally re-reading the entire series, and I'm definitely reading Assassin's Blade this time!
🌵

🌵 Love the spreads!! And I am looking for the Crescent City now 😂😂.
I can definitely recommend it!
I have spent so many reading hours going back to a favorite series this year. Love all the spreads. Thank you so much for posting. 📚🌵
As always I enjoyed your reading journal videos! I’m glad to hear your cat is doing ok 🌵😊
🌵Your spreads are beautiful! And daaang that sticker and washi tape collection *jealous* 😍
I relate so much to re-reading for comfort! Last year was really hard so I had to go all the way back to the Moomin saga and other children's books that I read in primary. Loved it, and I get to add new layers of meaning to those old stories. thank you for the video, your beautiful journal spreads are very inspiring :3
I truly love your beautiful video and your journal is amazing. Your voice is relaxing. I appreciate your video very much. Thank you very very much. 🥰❤🌵
Catching up on your reading journal videos. Such beautiful spreads, esp the first two Acotar ones ... tho' they're all lovely as usual
Hoppas du får en bra vecka 🌵
Such very beautiful designs on all the spreads 🌟🌟✨️🌟🌟 Really like your style 👍 Tfs! 🌵
/Ditte 🤓 🇸🇪
I like how you reread but every time in a different way. Personally I've never reread anything bc i feel like it "wastes time" where i could be discovering a new book? But thats a cool approach and smthn I'd consider!🌵
🌵beautiful spreads, loved them and thankyou for motivating me to start a reading journal, hehe.
I love your accent, i'm not a native english speaker and listen to you feels so clear and calm, thanks for your video!❤
🌵
🌵I love those books too. I was thinking about rereading crescent city in Dec
🌵
🌵 I love the ACOTAR series! Love your videos
🌵 just read my first Sarah J Mass book. I'm sorry for the loss of your cat. ❤
🌵this month spreads are the cutest Hedda loved them al 🥰
Have you seen The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes movie??? Honestly I loved the book and couldn't understand it's hate when it came out because the commentary from Suzanne Collins in it along with the parallels to the trilogy are SO GOOD! The Wicked King is so good!
I haven’t watched it yet, but I will! I’m so excited to see it!🥰
2:30 I do the same thing!! Love you videos and your spreads are so beautiful! Hope you had a lovely birthday...Happy 30th!!! 😊🌵🌵
Thank you so much!
Haha eg har seriøst pausa videoen for å skrive, men eg vart så gira når du snakka om ACOTAR bøkene i graphic audio stilen! Eg høyrte dei i sommar og ELSKA dei! 🤩🥰 Veldig kjekt å høyre at du likte dei òg sidan du har lest bøkene før (det har ikkje eg). Veldig godt å høyre at pusen har det bra ❤️ Eg mista mine to seniorar i fjor, det er så vondt 😞 No skal eg sjå ferdig videoen hehe 👌
Beautiful spreads as always 😍 I love the way you make collages. And I think I should finally try Sarah J. Maas's books 😅🌵
You should! I say start with ACOTAR haha!
So glad your cat is okay now! 🌵
❤ I can’t find a cactus lol

So cute!!!
Sometimes I feel like your most-beautiful reading journal pages are for the books you didn't like very much
That's a valid opinion! It's a bit like the Edward's perspective book Stephenie Meyer wrote a few years ago haha!
Also, glad I'm not the only one re-reading favorites for comfort. I haven't read Book Lovers, but maybe I should check it out!
These spreads turned out very beautiful. It's always a very pleasant and inspiring experience watching your reading journal videos. 💜
Lovely spreads! Glad to hear your cat is ok as well. I do the same thing with rereading books or rewatching movies and TV shows that are comforting when I need something familiar that I know will be good. 🌵
I completely relate to the rereading/rewatching stuff you lov when you’re sad !! I do the same with one of my fav mangas, Nataume’s Book of Friends, and reread it every year around the same fall time 🌵
Before I had kids I had a list of books that I would reread every summer. I loved revisiting those worlds to discover new details. 🌵
Beautiful pages as always …. so lovely to watch and listen to x
I love your videos so much as soon as I see the notification I click it! I love you’re reading journal spreads, you’re so creative and artistic!!
Aah thank you so much!
@@mochibujo I’m looking forward to your next video!
Me who doesn't have interest in reading The Balad of... and loves spoilers: thank you, Hedda 😄😂 - Also, I agree with you, sometimes a story is just a story and is up to us to make what we can with it; and I've notice, a lot of people expect an agenda or to take sides, I don't know why this has become so popular now days but it can be annoying because it makes me think we should have this perfect society in which everybody must think in a very specific way that has to be pleassant for the majority... and you know, sometimes is not that deep, lol
I totally agree. I worry about this idea that there is one right way to think, and everyone else is wrong and bad. It's one thing in real life issues, but another in books - sometimes it's just a story, and not that deep, like you say! Some of my favorite books have morally grey characters, such as Babel and The Poppy Wars (R. F. Kuang is just queen of heroes turned villains I suppose), because it makes you think more critically, rather than just being handed a good vs evil narrative.
I do watch your videos undivided cause I really like getting inspirations to make my bujo and also the book recommendations. Been thinking of making my own reading journal maybe. Hoping for more energy to do it. 🌵
I'm so glad you can take inspiration from my videos
I‘m really happy you could finally use the waterlilly stickers :) it looks amazing! :)
Greetings from Germany! 🌵
Omg yes, thank you!!
I always love watching your videos and it got me motivated to start a reading journal as well again, I orderd mine from notebook therapy and really hope it'll arrive in time it's currently in a city 2/3h away from me and I still have 5 days or so before I leave 🪴
I hope it has arrived by now!
