Yes. I’ve been waiting for another upload from her for so long. Does anyone know what happened to her and why she deleted the reading it in one day video?
@@EoinWalsh she deleted it because their was a lot of controversy about the author and she didn’t want to support him, so she took down the video. I think she said it in one of her last videos she posted. I think she said that he was homophobic or transphobic.
I think she may have cut it out on purpose? I remember her saying in one vlog that people were very concerned about her caffeine intake so she made a point of being all "LOOK, I'M DRINKING WATER!" hahaha but yes I miss it too!
Everytime I feel down, I come back and watch your videos and instantly feel better and like I am hanging out with a best friend. I hope you’re doing well Zoe 💜
Watching you and your dad be silly and goofy together makes me so happy. I lost my Dad Christmas Eve in 2018 and as it is getting nearer and nearer this year to his anniversary, I am a bit down, but watching you and your dad joke and play around has made me feel better. Thank you for your content! It has helped me more than I could really express.
Stay strong! My dad passed away 2016 and his birthday is Christmas Eve so I know how you feel... we can get through this, our dads are always with us no matter what
I understand your point about fat phobia within the Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle but my personal view is that it's not written in a way that makes it seem acceptable. It's written so that you don't like the main character and that he has flaws because of the poor ways he chooses to think. The character later in the book realises that his perceptions lead him to only look at the negative rather than what was beneath the surface and he was punished for not focusing on the things that really mattered or that were important. I understand that it caused you not to be interested in the story and although I loved this book it doesn't make sense for another person to continue on if you don't enjoy it. However, I also think that not including things like fat phobia and racism etc. in books can be really detrimental because it's just sweeping an issue under the carpet that still exists. I think the bad things need to be in fiction as well in order for people to be confronted with it and raise those discussions in order to educate and break down those barriers and those stereotypes. I don't think it should be spoon fed to the reader that it's wrong especially in adult fiction. It can be done in more subtle ways with different perspectives that challenge that behaviour. If we only have fiction that represents the good things about society then we are just lying to ourselves and placating ourselves in a false sense of security by pretending that bad things and opinions that are different to our own don't exist. I think it's a much wider issue than purely that book raises but I think it's something that should be discussed more.
I totally agree. personally, I feel Zoe has trouble understanding why such language is used. I read her IT review and she'd rated it a 2 because of the slurs etc used. I understand these things aren't pleasant to read but you have to understand their purpose.
Everyone has a degree to which they can tolerate racism, fat phobia etc in books. I also think that being overweight to a certain degree makes it harder to go through the activities of daily living because I have worked with people like this. A lot of them have an alarming amount of self hate which is so sad. I think that was the saddest part of the character for me. His mind was the best in the book. The occupied character I had the most trouble with in 7 1/2 was the next character. Yuck. The very last ending was not my favorite either. Not believable. What I liked was the bouncing from character to character. That was neat.
Zoe!! Do you have any idea how much I’ve missed you!!??😭😭 please upload more and more.. you’re the only booktuber I enjoy watching. More love and success to you.❤️❤️
7 1/2 deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle was probably my favourite book of 2019. I absolutely love it despite its flaws, but then again, I was hooked and couldn't put the book down since the first chapter! For me it never dragged on or felt slow, so maybe it just isn't for you :(
It was my favourite book of 2018 and I still think about it a year later. It came out in the UK a lot earlier so it's been interesting seeing it being picked up a bit more this year.
Shame you didn't get to finish Hardcastle because I think you should give it a full chance. I read it back in September and although it was a mind bending, strange, creepy, slower burn book, I really enjoyed it. I love how clever it was with time and how you can't trust anyone. The pace does pick up a lot. I feel like it has unlikeable characters and I didn't really think of it as fat-shaming. I understand how you got that, but I feel each character has its struggles and strengths, some intelligent but immobile, some dumb but active. Nasty people, indifferent people and he has to work with each one. Like I said the main character is not a nice person but I love how this experience really changes him by the end. If it's not for you that's fine but I personally think getting to the end is worth doing xx
I keep coming back to your vlogs but I think this one is my favourite. So cozy, so cute with your dad, the cabin and the walks... I hope you're doing well
I keep re-watching your vlogs, especially with your dad. They are so wholesome and never fail to cheer up ❤️ The one during Halloween or Christmas were epic.
i just have to thank you! i was in such a bad mental state for a few days now and watching this video made me so calm and happy and peaceful i feel great now :) thank u soooo much! u deserve the world :D
I love these types of videos by you, the reading vlogs in which you are somewhere distant. Or any reading vlog with a certain theme (that IT-reading vlog, for example). That cabin is just adorable!
I’m so glad your back, missed your vlogs! Your relationship with your dad reminds me of mine, we watch shows and read books and have the same sense of humor.
Zoe, one of my favorite things about your channel is that you include your dad. I about teared up when I saw the two of you hiking. My dad took us kids hiking, too. He passed away in 2009 to lung cancer. Cherish these moments. They are so precious.
As a fellow FL gal, the autumn shookethness is a whole vibe. I did notice an insane amount of changing leaves on the way to Disney the other day and I was amazed.
1. Can your dad adopt me because he is the most adorable person ever. 2. Evelyn Hardcastle is overrated I think. The ending makes you 10x more confused 3. Come to Saskatchewan, Canada we have tons of pumpkin patches, corn mazes, and horse back riding 4. Frankenstein is one of my favorite books, I read it for a fiction class in university, really recommend it but take your time with it to allow yourself to absorb what’s being said
I was wondering what happened to the halloween edition where you read It in 1 day. I really enjoyed that one. I was watching it on youtube one day and then the next it was taken off.
Yorkshire Tea! I’m the only person in my family who loves that tea. With your raving about The Diviners, I’m looking forward to picking up that series.
Zoe, I just want to say that I absolutely love you. You’re such an amazing person. I love how bubbly and happy you always are. Your videos give me life and always make me smile. You’re so passionate about what you do. Thank you!!
Seriously, you and your dad are the best, you are parent-daughter relationship goals :) and a 45min vlog with you goes by so fast, you have such a perky personality ! :)
I got so thrown off when the camera fell when she started reading Pumpkin Heads and she picked it up and said, “goodbye”. It confused me but made me laugh. Zoe is too adorable!
Whenever Zoë release a reading vlog, I'm here. Must be really sick to get spooked in a cabin. You and the gloomy, eerie silence, waiting for the jumpscare that never comes. mwahahaha
Gosh I love your videos. I was recently trying to find vlogs in Asheville/ Great Smoky Mountains since I am going there in February and then you posted this which just gave me LIFE.
Loved your comments on fatphobia! I've never heard anyone else mentioning that about Evelyn Hardcastle; it's definitely leaving my wish list now. Also, the whole vlog was just soo cozy and wonderful!
When I and my parents were in a cabin up at the top of Scotland, there were deer that would come onto the wooden porch by their glass doors ar night and there was something that got on the roof, I think it was a polecat or something i cant remember.
My mom and sister work at the Biltmore Estate! I grew up visiting there as a kid (it’s near my parent’s house), they were probably there while you were. That’s so cool! Enjoyed the vlog too, btw :D
She was a lover of books and on a quest to read the spookiest of them all Zoe locked herself away in a cabin apart from the world. Little did she know the further she'd read, the more pages she flipped the cabin would show its true colors eating away at Zoes mind one book at a time. Never to be seen again. - my own little spook
I love dracula! That is one of the best books ever to read especially around halloween time. I have my own challenge each year to read that every october and hocus pocus. And sorry for the late reply.
I’ve read 7 deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle and I found it quite confusing but very interesting. I read it so fast despite the confusing plot and I really enjoyed the twists and turns in it. I think I have to re-read it again to understand it all.
Your vlogs are literally my fave! You put so much effort into them and I just love your energy. I definitely needed to watch this today as I am sick, so you have definitely lifted my mood
At 11:22, as someone who lives in the Appalachian Mountains, I totally agree with your dad’s view on driving. BTW, I’m 21 years old and don’t even have a driver’s permit because I’m to afraid of driving off the edge of a cliff
Zoe lives by the beat of her own drum. A spooky vlog in Dec. Loving it so far...laughing through the duck count. Never change girl! And don't let no one kill your joy. You are such a blessing for lifting our spirits. I going to drag out this video with the hopes you will soon upload again. Hint: a holiday vlog please
“I’m as active as a mountain goat!
.....a dead mountain goat.”
WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THIS ICONIC LINE LOLOLOL
😂😂😂💜
Zoe: "there are a lot of ducks here"
Me, an intellectual: "LOOK AT ALL THESE CHICKENS"
Camu Lopez omg🤣
A true minecraft player 😂
are you actually Klaus from Umbrella Academy? 😂
YAASS!
Anyone else just keep re-watching zoe's videos? Hoping to see something from her soon!
Same here 🥺
Yes ❤️
Yes. I’ve been waiting for another upload from her for so long. Does anyone know what happened to her and why she deleted the reading it in one day video?
I do I love it! But I’m wondering where she been hopefully she’ll come back and do more 😊.
@@EoinWalsh she deleted it because their was a lot of controversy about the author and she didn’t want to support him, so she took down the video. I think she said it in one of her last videos she posted. I think she said that he was homophobic or transphobic.
You’re relationship with your dad is so wonderful ♥️ everything about this is wonderful haha
I totally agree! And Zoe's dad is just adorable :D
Your relationship not you're relationship
Yeaaah! I absolutely love her dad
i miss the caffeine counter that she usually records!
maitha I felt like the vlog was incomplete without it
@@pennythoughts1766 i feel the same way!
it was replaced with the bird counter😂
I think she may have cut it out on purpose? I remember her saying in one vlog that people were very concerned about her caffeine intake so she made a point of being all "LOOK, I'M DRINKING WATER!" hahaha but yes I miss it too!
@@BonesandBooth92 Ah dang! if that was the reason then thats quite sad :( I feel as though sometimes people can be too critical..
That duck montage is the best thing I've watched all year
Jerrica L Pierce I nominate this montage for an Oscar. No, three Oscars.
Good D from time out jail who wants this week
I'm trying to get that p until you get home
To do this to me but I'm trying
Tomorrow is Monday...

Watching you and your dad be silly and goofy together makes me so happy. I lost my Dad Christmas Eve in 2018 and as it is getting nearer and nearer this year to his anniversary, I am a bit down, but watching you and your dad joke and play around has made me feel better. Thank you for your content! It has helped me more than I could really express.

That one is my fav. I've rewatched it so many times omg. Love it!
@@charuthapliyal4248 mine too!
a whole 45 MINUTES of Zoe reading vlog? BEST DAY EVER
"in this wardrobe we don't have the entrance to Narnia... but we do have... a bookshelf!" idk why i just love the reference so much 😂
“Im as active as a mountain goat”
*stares off in distance*
“a d e a d m o u n t a i n g o a t”
idk why but the duck montage was *the funniest thing* i've ever seen
Okay but I’m obsessed with that little cabin!
We all love and miss you, Zoe! I hope you're safe and okay, and are able to give us more content soon. ❤️
“Should I just go to bed angry?” 🤣 - oh how I’ve missed your videos.
OMG OMG OMG OMG Zoe is back with a huge reading vlog!!! December is officially made! Christmas is saved!!

Y'know, I also want this answer

I immediately stopped watching Home alone when this notif showed up in my screen 😍😍
I literally spilled my tea on the floor with the duck count
Zoe!! Do you have any idea how much I’ve missed you!!??😭😭 please upload more and more.. you’re the only booktuber I enjoy watching. More love and success to you.❤️❤️

I love the relationship you have with your dad!! I wish we were all so lucky. 😀
i really hope she’s doing okay. its been 3 years now!

I agree! It was obviously very long with very many details but for me it was just things revealing all the time and I was always like 👀👀👀 oh my God
It was my favourite book of 2018 and I still think about it a year later. It came out in the UK a lot earlier so it's been interesting seeing it being picked up a bit more this year.
I love your readathons ❤️ and when you read books on camera

Books and Brushes Totally agree! He does get angry at the limitations, physically or mentally, of every host.
Me 10 minutes in: when are we going to Barnes and Noble?
I keep coming back to your vlogs but I think this one is my favourite. So cozy, so cute with your dad, the cabin and the walks... I hope you're doing well
Zoe with her snacks, adventures, books and her dad! We are all thriving. ❤
When Zoe posts I must stop everything to watch her video😂 Love u Zoe💜💛
Hope you’re doing good Zoe!! I love watching your readathons and you got me into reading so thank you :D
Rewatching these old vlogs and it just makes me adore Zoe and her dad so much more. They are truly an iconic duo and so wholesome and fun together.
Cabin in the woods, in autumn. Reader's paradise!
The Graveyard book is one of my favorites. You will love it!
It was so wholesome when your dad said "vampire" and you were just SO PROUD. Your relationship with your dad is so amazing.
this is my comfort video
I keep re-watching your vlogs, especially with your dad. They are so wholesome and never fail to cheer up ❤️ The one during Halloween or Christmas were epic.
i just have to thank you! i was in such a bad mental state for a few days now and watching this video made me so calm and happy and peaceful i feel great now :) thank u soooo much! u deserve the world :D
i love how your dad laughs at all your jokes 🤣 the kind of support I need in my life hahaha
That duck montage had me 😂
Also that Buzzfeed Unsolved reference 👌🏻
I was hoping you’d make a herondale quote about the ducks and you did. 😭❤️
Your relationship with dad is wonderful! Love you Zoe ❤
I swear that whatever Zoe reads I want to read cause she makes all the books that she reads exciting
I love that the Smokey Mountains always themes their cabins. One year we stayed in a troll themed cabin and I loved it.
The duck count was FANTASTIC 😂😂😭 that cabin was sooo cute!! You go girl, going on all those hikes. Yaaasss, Taco Bell 😍

Yeah, about that....
2021 here, she stopped posting at all. Even on goodreads, I KNOW RIGHT
You're the only one whose reading vlogs I enjoy watching tbh. Also, I'm so jealous of the relationship you have with your dad it's so sweet
Zoe: “Can I do this?!?”
*jumps on a rock*
Also Zoe: “YAHHHH!!!”
😂😂😂
who else is watching this in quarantine, and just praying that she posts soon?
Do another Christmas themed 24 hour readathon please??!!!
i kept rewatching your other vlogs, now i have something new to watch 😂

i was just looking for it too
I missed the reading vlogs!! Now I want to go to a cabin and read!!!
Yorkshire Tea! I’m the only person in my family who loves that tea. With your raving about The Diviners, I’m looking forward to picking up that series.

OH MY GOD SHES BACK!!!!!!
I loved Pumpkin Heads so much! It is one of my favorite graphic novels I read this year!
Hello, I’m French and I love you’re video, thanks to you my English is better and better each video.❤️🌙
Your dad is adorable! It warms my heart whenever you include him in your videos. You guys are so sweet! :D
The music over bird watch was so perfect, I was so invested in the count. Just how many ducks can one cabin hold?!?!
Your relationship with your dad is sooooo precious and wholesome and hajshxjdjwojdjdj 😭😭😭😅
Bird watch count was HILARIOUS!! 🤣
I got so thrown off when the camera fell when she started reading Pumpkin Heads and she picked it up and said, “goodbye”. It confused me but made me laugh. Zoe is too adorable!

45 mins of Zoe... YESSS!!
So cosy, so cocooning, so lovely ! I love your vlog
When I and my parents were in a cabin up at the top of Scotland, there were deer that would come onto the wooden porch by their glass doors ar night and there was something that got on the roof, I think it was a polecat or something i cant remember.
My mom and sister work at the Biltmore Estate! I grew up visiting there as a kid (it’s near my parent’s house), they were probably there while you were. That’s so cool! Enjoyed the vlog too, btw :D

Little did she know the further she'd read, the more pages she flipped the cabin would show its true colors eating away at Zoes mind one book at a time. Never to be seen again. - my own little spook
Have you read Bram stokers Dracula, that is a book I recommend. I also love pride and prejudice, it's one of the greatest books I've ever read.
I love dracula! That is one of the best books ever to read especially around halloween time. I have my own challenge each year to read that every october and hocus pocus. And sorry for the late reply.
FINALLY!!!! Been WAITING for you to post!!!
Your reading vlogs are literally the best videos on booktube nowadays. Thank you for the amazing content ❤
