I’m dying laughing at your description of the freezer scene in beach read “why is she up so high- how can he reach her?” 😂😂 tbh i’d be confused too but sometimes these smut scenes tend to defy gravity.
The only reason I knew what she was talking about in the book was because people where I live freeze their excess meat from hunting in those out in the garage. That's all I could think of the entire scene though, so is that any better?
I got to the Emily Henry part and I am honestly laughing out loud to the freezer part. My entire life I've only had these low horizontal freezers so that's what I imagined while reading the book :D AND, while everyone might say that Beach Read is her best book, I will proudly say I think Book Lovers is the far superior Emily Henry book out of all the books she published!
I laughed too when I got to that part. I’d be the opposite because freezer outside of fridge = chest freezer. Anything else will need to be specified 😂
It’s interesting how Emily Henry is so hit or miss for most people! I really didn’t like Book Lovers (I have it three stars because of the romance but I hated the MC’s sister) but I quite liked Beach Read and Funny Story.
june was getting too crazy so i reread all of the hunger games books and that was the best decision ive ever made ✨ tatiana maslany narrating was a gift i didnt know i needed!!!
I also read Beautyland in June and I it hit for me, even though I got a little unsure in the middle too. I reserved it after a super brief perusal of the description and wasn’t not prepared for the gut punches. “When someone dies, where does the way they eat egg rolls go?” That got me.
Omg thank you for mentioning the double pants situation in Funny Story! Some of the hook up scenes didn’t make sense and I was like maybe I don’t understand English anymore 😂
All the books I read in June: Finished 'The Long Walk' Read 'Billy Summers' Read 'Dune' Read 'Dune Messiah' Read 'The Weight Of Blood' Started 'Children of Dune' Six books in a month is a new record for me.
@@caricanread the new films are quite similar to the books, but reading the books helped me understand what was going on. If you were confused by the movies as well, I'd recommend reading the book.
I had to read The Hour of the Star in High School, more than 15 years ago (God, I'm old 👵🏻) and because of you now I want to reread it. One fun fact about Clarice Lispector that I love (besides the fact that she grown up in my hometown) is that she did the Brazilian translation of Interview with the Vampire and it's the translation that we use to this day. 💜
In June I read Fable, Namesake, Beasts of a Little Land and Five Broken Blades so it was a great reading month for me!! All past recs from you Cari so thanks for that 🥰
Ugh I’m in my READING phase right now 😭 three books a week which is probably not great because finals are coming up. And I know that in a month or so, it will be the dreaded SLUMP phase where I’ll forget the existence of my bookshelf
The fridge bit was funny haha. The long/horizontal freezer is called, as I know it from growing up, a deep freezer. We had one in our garage (since there was 5 people in our household).
Rom coms! I absoluteky adored Better Than the Movies by Lynn Painter, very high school wholesome romance. Mr. Wrong Number is also pretty good. I also like May the Best Man Win by Mira Lyn Kelly, as well as her other books in that series. Mia Sosa is good as well! Hope you enjoy some of these 😁
@@caricanreadhonestly I agree with you I liked Book Lovers a lot more than Beach Read. Idk what it is about Emily Henry but she is very hit or miss. I HATED The People We Meet on Vacation though so anything is better than that.
If you haven’t already you should read Deathless by Catherynne Valente - it uses major elements from Russian folklore and it’s kind of a love story, kind of a coming of age if a young woman, but also just kind of devastating. One of my favorite books
Recently read Out on a Limb by Hannah Bonam-Young and it was absolutely AMAZING!! I'm normally not one for the unexpected pregnancy trope, but both Win and Bo's stories had me in absolute tears. Their love story was so utterly compelling and I just adored it! Would totally recommend!
As a type of a mood girl, when I hear someone saying - I picked up and put down - I want to say, girl, it's okay, it's not like you have to finish it if you picked it up, each book has its' moment. And as a person who is an avid reader of online novels, I must say dnf-ing or putting down novels in this field is even a necessary practice)))
Yesss im trying to feel less guilty about it! I think it hurts when its a book i have waited weeks for at the library and then i return it without reading it - feels like a waste. But a bigger waste for me to push myself unhappily thru a book!!
@@caricanread I still think you're a champ for pushing through. Correct me if I'm wrong, but sometimes I feel that you also don't want to disappoint subscribers who recommended you books, even if you might not click with that book or push through it, you still want to finish to give your honest opinion about it.
RomComs: Abby Jimenez’s recent trilogy starting with Part of Your World, hands down! Otherwise I recommend checking out Elyse Meyers’s recent reading wrap ups, she gives incredible my thorough but quick wrap ups that could really help you pick
Cari since you enjoyed The Maniac I would HIGHLY recommend When We Cease To Understand the World by the same author, Benjamin Labatut…It’s a collection of short stories that are fictionalized accounts of great scientific discoveries, it’s definitely one of a kind and merges literature, history, and science into one unique collection!
She writes more Romantic dramadies than anything else, but I really like Alison Cochrun’s work. Twelfth Knight is a YA romance I read that leaned more on comedy-I mean, I laughed at it, but that was really good, too. (Oh, and I LOVED Where the Dark Stands Still. The ending had me in shambles.)
I’m reading an ARC of Buried Deep and Other Storied and am loving it! In such a short time she builds worlds that draw you in. Plus there’s a Scholomance short story!
I picked up “forest of dreams and whispers” because i loved the dynamic of cardan and jude so hopefully this will remind me of my love for reading that i once had since I’ve only read one book this year so far 🥲
I loved The Burnout by Sophie Kinsella! I just started reading romance in between genres this past year and this one was really funny. It has the grump/sunshine trope and is available on libby.
Beach Read is the only one I haven’t read by Emily Henry out of her adult romances but my favorite is Happy Place. It just had moments I really loved and thought I needed to hear in the moment so it might have just been a time thing, but yeah, recommend!
Cariii, I think you'd really like the Queen's thief series! I reread the series after a long time. The first book reads more middle grade but from the second book onwards, I was gagged. Every book feels like heist but with actually well written female characters
Rom com recs! I am a die hard Abby Jimenez fan and there is no one else I would put more faith in to get me through an 11 hour plane ride. Her newest release “Just for the Summer” is my favorite I think, but I recommend you read “Part of Your World” first because the stories are connected.
RomCom recs: -Part of Your World Trilogy by Abby Jimenez (would really recommend reading them in order, all three of them are great) -The Paradise Problem by Christina Lauren (couldn't put it down, such a fun read)
I don’t have any romcom recs but I’m also excited for quite a few of the same books you are! I’m currently reading the Tainted Cup (80% done!) and I’m obsessed it’s so good! It’s been a while since I’ve read a Sherlock and Watson type story and it’s just so good and the fantasy aspects are on point. Really hoping the end is as good as the rest of the book has been!
Happy Place is my favorite romcom and I would NOT recommend reading it on the plane lol. I am not a big crier and I cried throughout that entire book… good luck!!
I'm not sure if you have already read them, but if not- "Yours Truly" and "The Happy Ever After Playlist" by Abby Jimenez (they are part of two different series, but can be read as stanalones ). It should make a perfect summer/plane read. I love the way Abby Jimenez writes the first part of of her romance books- the way they meet, flirt, write to each other ect, it makes me see that they actually have chemistry/feelings for each other, which then makes me root for them. Overall really fun reads. Love from Poland❤
i just started my winter vacations and have been able to put myself up to date with your videos and boom just when I finished the last one this one was uploaded ----> instantly happy. I read "un verdor terrible" by Benjamin Labatut an it is really cool how he approaches science themes!!
I thought almost universally the best Emily Henry book was People We Meet on Vacation. It's certainly mine. Actually, it's one of my favorite contemporary Romances of all time.
oh no i actually really disliked it - maybe because i spend so much time in palm springs where it takes place? idk i feel like that's easily my least fav :( glad you loved it tho, i think its getting a movie??
not a romcom but a coming of age story about friendship (and a small romantic subplot). foolish hearts by emma mills is such a sweet wholesome story and claudia (the mc) is so funny and it did make me shed some tears. highly recommend
the Emily Henry refrigerator 😭 😭 😭 omg very curious about the Mary Gaitskill read in interview with her in The Paris Review a spring ago and have been meaning to get to her work! and homegirl's first Lispector WOOP WOOP!!!
Some of my fav roms are: The Flatshare - Beth O’Leary , Someone I Used to Know - Paige Toon, The Rosie Project - Graeme Simsion, The Deal - Elle Kennedy, The True Love Experiment - Christina Lauren, In the Weeds - B K Borison, Forget Me Not - Julie Soto. I’m another vote for Beach Read being Emily Henry’s best (though I’m yet to read Happy Place and Funny Story).
I recommend The readers of broken wheel recommend by Katarina Bivald. It's a silly romcom. It will make you laugh, but I also really like it because it talks about the love of books.

I’m dying laughing at your description of the freezer scene in beach read “why is she up so high- how can he reach her?” 😂😂 tbh i’d be confused too but sometimes these smut scenes tend to defy gravity.
i was so concerned for everyone involved!!
@@caricanread i can just imagine the confused and concerned expressions on your face haha
The only reason I knew what she was talking about in the book was because people where I live freeze their excess meat from hunting in those out in the garage. That's all I could think of the entire scene though, so is that any better?
I’ve only had chest freezers so I would have had no problem with this scene, so Cari’s description of her picturing the scene made me cackle
That's called "a dead body freezer"
pushing the Cari to tier rank all the fantasy books she’s read agenda againnnn
ahhh yeah i've been slipping hahah used to do that every year!
@@caricanreadyou’re my best friend I really like you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
"Ali Hazelwood would never" 😭😭😭😭
the concept of the turnglass is so cool
right?! i want more books like it!!
When I’m in a reading slump she appears (but no fr I’ve been needing more books to read to get out of the slump so this is great
hope this helps :''') june was a very odd reading month...
I got to the Emily Henry part and I am honestly laughing out loud to the freezer part. My entire life I've only had these low horizontal freezers so that's what I imagined while reading the book :D
AND, while everyone might say that Beach Read is her best book, I will proudly say I think Book Lovers is the far superior Emily Henry book out of all the books she published!

Absolutely agree about Book Lovers being her best!
It’s interesting how Emily Henry is so hit or miss for most people! I really didn’t like Book Lovers (I have it three stars because of the romance but I hated the MC’s sister) but I quite liked Beach Read and Funny Story.
It's so nice to see Brazilian novels being read in other places!
Cari, you literally pick the perfect upload times for my region, right when I'm winding down in the evening, and available to watch and listen 😊
hehe its meant to beeee!
definitely will pick up hour of the star, i love a narrator breaking the fourth wall
it was such a good read!
the freezer confusion is so funny
i guess all basement freezers are the long kind but my brain said no, we're launching her to the ceiling hahaha
« who hurt you…. kristy?? 🤨 » 😂
we need to help her :'''')
I can't stop laughing of Cari mentioned the fridge :))))
the trauma i never expected hahah
june was getting too crazy so i reread all of the hunger games books and that was the best decision ive ever made ✨ tatiana maslany narrating was a gift i didnt know i needed!!!
omg yes they deserve a reread for sure!
Totally agree with you about Emily Henry books - Book Lovers is my absolute fave, followed by Funny Story. She’s great for a reading slump 💕💕
I also read Beautyland in June and I it hit for me, even though I got a little unsure in the middle too. I reserved it after a super brief perusal of the description and wasn’t not prepared for the gut punches. “When someone dies, where does the way they eat egg rolls go?” That got me.
YAY!! So glad to see brazilian authors reaching the world! Super excited and warm hearted to see it!
I’m about an hour away from House of Hollow and I am loooving it! Can’t wait to get into the Invocations next!!!!!!
yessss i love this author's work!!
@@caricanread have you read The Watchers?? It was riveting. Kiiiinda saw the twists coming but still a very engaging read.
Every time I'm in a reading slump, Cari comes to the rescue!!!
Omg thank you for mentioning the double pants situation in Funny Story! Some of the hook up scenes didn’t make sense and I was like maybe I don’t understand English anymore 😂
brasil mentioned!!!🎉
i had to read hour of the star in high school and it was super fun, glad you loved it
i would have loved to have read this in school and really dissect it!
feeling the same things cari felt reading these books
🩷🩷🩷
All the books I read in June:
Finished 'The Long Walk'
Read 'Billy Summers'
Read 'Dune'
Read 'Dune Messiah'
Read 'The Weight Of Blood'
Started 'Children of Dune'
Six books in a month is a new record for me.
i really want to read dune! kurt has read the series a million times and i love the films :')
@@caricanread the new films are quite similar to the books, but reading the books helped me understand what was going on. If you were confused by the movies as well, I'd recommend reading the book.

AHHHHH i finished the Ember quartet last month and got sooooo hyped for Heir!
YESSSSS!
Whose it by?
I recently bought Emily Wilde first book so I’m excited to read it
ohhh enjoy!!
In June I read Fable, Namesake, Beasts of a Little Land and Five Broken Blades so it was a great reading month for me!! All past recs from you Cari so thanks for that 🥰
I immediately added My Throat An Open Grave to my TBR after your review!!! Excellent wrap up!
Ugh I’m in my READING phase right now 😭 three books a week which is probably not great because finals are coming up. And I know that in a month or so, it will be the dreaded SLUMP phase where I’ll forget the existence of my bookshelf
ahhh i know the feeling! enjoy it while you can and good luck with finals!!
I absolutely love seeing Brazilian authors getting more recognition abroad! Clarice's short stories are also awesome
I always get reading slumps in the summer so this list is awesome!!! Hope we all get out of reading slumps soon lol
good luck to the both of us!
IVE BEEN WAITING ALL DAY 💗✨🤍⭐️
thank youuu :')
My favorite romance novel has been Before I Let Go. I’m not sure if it is a rom com more like women’s fiction. BUT IT’S FANTASTIC
i have it physically sitting on my shelf!!!
totally agree on the predictability of twin crowns. it was mildly enjoyable but so simple and tropey and already done
I genuinely held The Turnglass in my hands earlier today and decided against it… and I almost regretted it but now my soul is at peace 😌
it was so fun to flip it but...that was it hahaha
I’m so glad you ended up (mostly) enjoying The Measure too!! Such a fun concept for a book haha, I thought it was very thought provoking 😊
I absolutely loved Where The Dark Stands Still. I read it in May.❤
🤍🤍🤍
Happy 4th, Cari! June was a weird reading month, I agree. Hope you have a great weekend!
same to you!!!
The fridge bit was funny haha. The long/horizontal freezer is called, as I know it from growing up, a deep freezer. We had one in our garage (since there was 5 people in our household).
Rom coms!
I absoluteky adored Better Than the Movies by Lynn Painter, very high school wholesome romance. Mr. Wrong Number is also pretty good.
I also like May the Best Man Win by Mira Lyn Kelly, as well as her other books in that series.
Mia Sosa is good as well!
Hope you enjoy some of these 😁
I love Cari's face (sounds weird) but I just love looking at her ok? She's so gorgeous I could look at her forever and never get tired 😭❤️
talia hibbert's brown sister series are some of my favorite romcoms!!
Yes they are on my list 😍😍😍 i have been warned about the smut tho haha
Ooo I also read Beach Read in June! Ironically I was actually in a touristy lake side town while reading! Very vibey
ugh love when reality matches my book choice!!
@@caricanreadhonestly I agree with you I liked Book Lovers a lot more than Beach Read. Idk what it is about Emily Henry but she is very hit or miss. I HATED The People We Meet on Vacation though so anything is better than that.
OMG me too....Such a good book ..perfect summer book
I LOVE THESE MONTH RECAPS! I look forward to them so much!💖💖
I loved house of hollow so much. Can't wait to read the invocation
Same, I need this book in my life
I looooved the maniac! my nerd heart needs more of whatever that was lol
If you haven’t already you should read Deathless by Catherynne Valente - it uses major elements from Russian folklore and it’s kind of a love story, kind of a coming of age if a young woman, but also just kind of devastating. One of my favorite books
I’m not a huge romcom reader more of a fantasy reader. But just finished love and other words and it was incredibly sweet
For romcoms, I really liked The Flatshare by Beth O'Leary
Oh i think i heard of this one!! Will look it up 🤍
@@caricanreadI really like Mhairi Macfarlane’s books ❤
Recently read Out on a Limb by Hannah Bonam-Young and it was absolutely AMAZING!! I'm normally not one for the unexpected pregnancy trope, but both Win and Bo's stories had me in absolute tears. Their love story was so utterly compelling and I just adored it! Would totally recommend!

Not me adding half of these books to my TBR like I don't have a million books on it already hahahaha
Highly recommend Monstrous by Lily Mayne as a romance series. I did not expect to enjoy these books but they're currently my life, so 😁
RomComs: Abby Jimenez’s recent trilogy starting with Part of Your World, hands down!
Otherwise I recommend checking out Elyse Meyers’s recent reading wrap ups, she gives incredible my thorough but quick wrap ups that could really help you pick

I had exactly the same moment of confusion with the freezer scene in Beach Read 😂 I’m glad it wasn’t just me!
I am so validated by your beach read opinions!! I felt these same things but was just going to keep my mouth shut 😂🫢
I’ve been meaning to read the invocations so this might be my push
it really hit the spot for me :')
She writes more Romantic dramadies than anything else, but I really like Alison Cochrun’s work. Twelfth Knight is a YA romance I read that leaned more on comedy-I mean, I laughed at it, but that was really good, too. (Oh, and I LOVED Where the Dark Stands Still. The ending had me in shambles.)
I just read just for the summer by abby jiminez and it is absolutely my new favourite romance - highly recommend!! ☀️
TBH most of the novels that I've been enjoying have been recommended by you! So thank you for the great recommendations!! 👌🏼💓
BOOK LOVERS IS THE BEST EMILY HENRY THANK YOU CARI!!!!!
Perfect timing! I have a whole house to pick up and little ones napping so I’m all set for a Cari video!
CARI YOU ARE KILLING ME WITH THE FREEZER LOLOLOLOL
I’m reading an ARC of Buried Deep and Other Storied and am loving it! In such a short time she builds worlds that draw you in. Plus there’s a Scholomance short story!
I picked up “forest of dreams and whispers” because i loved the dynamic of cardan and jude so hopefully this will remind me of my love for reading that i once had since I’ve only read one book this year so far 🥲
i hope it works! i had a fun time with it :'')
@@caricanreadthanku ^^
I’m so excited to hear your thoughts on This Will Be Fun! I loved it! The title is very fitting.
When i heard it took inspiration from the princess bride i was all in 🥹
I loved The Burnout by Sophie Kinsella! I just started reading romance in between genres this past year and this one was really funny. It has the grump/sunshine trope and is available on libby.
Beach Read is the only one I haven’t read by Emily Henry out of her adult romances but my favorite is Happy Place. It just had moments I really loved and thought I needed to hear in the moment so it might have just been a time thing, but yeah, recommend!
Anything by Cathy Yardley is really good but my personal favorite is Role Playing.
ohhh looking this up!
Cariii, I think you'd really like the Queen's thief series! I reread the series after a long time. The first book reads more middle grade but from the second book onwards, I was gagged. Every book feels like heist but with actually well written female characters
Just put it on my list!! 🫡🫡
Rom com recs! I am a die hard Abby Jimenez fan and there is no one else I would put more faith in to get me through an 11 hour plane ride. Her newest release “Just for the Summer” is my favorite I think, but I recommend you read “Part of Your World” first because the stories are connected.
I read The Maniac a few months ago and absolutely loved it. It's actually a fictional biography :D
Ah ha!! I knew i couldnt have read a straight up non fic 😂😂
Yep, for me too Book Lovers was my favorite in comparison to Beach Read! Emily Henry always takes me off reading slumps!
RomCom recs:
-Part of Your World Trilogy by Abby Jimenez (would really recommend reading them in order, all three of them are great)
-The Paradise Problem by Christina Lauren (couldn't put it down, such a fun read)
38:19 "to be honest i was confused. but it got me" pretty much sums up my entire relationship with tamsyn lol
Exactly 🥲
“Ali Hazelwood would never.” - iconic, loved it
I don’t have any romcom recs but I’m also excited for quite a few of the same books you are! I’m currently reading the Tainted Cup (80% done!) and I’m obsessed it’s so good! It’s been a while since I’ve read a Sherlock and Watson type story and it’s just so good and the fantasy aspects are on point. Really hoping the end is as good as the rest of the book has been!
I never thought I’d see a Cari x Ethel Cain mashup. I got whiplash. 😂❤
I am alll about ethel
I read so many more books in June than compared to other months 😭
I liked both Book lovers and Funny Story way more than Beach Read tbh 😅
ok so im not alone!! i think i'd rank them book lovers, beach read, and then funny story!
Purple burglar alarm! I love you, Cari. You just made 4th of July for me.
I stand by the fact that no one can say those words perfectly on the first try agha
I’m so early… Hello!!! Happy July! Can’t wait to hear your book reviews 🥰 love your videos
thank you!! cant believe 2024 is halfway thru!!
Remember Me - Sophie Kinsella. Super fun with a unexpected twist towards the end.
I really loved Just For the Summer. A rom com but a lot of heart
Happy Place is my favorite romcom and I would NOT recommend reading it on the plane lol. I am not a big crier and I cried throughout that entire book… good luck!!

If you like the kind of dark fairy tale stand alones, you should check out The Butcher of the Forest by Premee Mohamed!
Oooh! I read The Measure last month I believe. Won it through goodreads and really liked it.
Now I reallt wanna grab Beach Read out of my tbr pile...
i just started my winter vacations and have been able to put myself up to date with your videos and boom just when I finished the last one this one was uploaded ----> instantly happy. I read "un verdor terrible" by Benjamin Labatut an it is really cool how he approaches science themes!!
I have another one of his books waiting on my bookshelf! Definitely a new fav!!
fav romcoms: she drives me crazy & eight nights of flirting
One of my favorite rom coms is The Burnout by Sophie Kinsella ❤ I was laughing through the entire book! Loved to side characters too. ❤❤❤

wahh thank you! hugs back
You should read any Abby Jimenez book! But maybe start with Part of your World!

omg very curious about the Mary Gaitskill read in interview with her in The Paris Review a spring ago and have been meaning to get to her work!
and homegirl's first Lispector WOOP WOOP!!!

I’m another vote for Beach Read being Emily Henry’s best (though I’m yet to read Happy Place and Funny Story).
What a great selection of books for the month, thank you for sharing! (Ps. As far as I know ‘the maniac’ is fiction so just be careful there)😅📚✨
I recommend The readers of broken wheel recommend by Katarina Bivald. It's a silly romcom. It will make you laugh, but I also really like it because it talks about the love of books.
