What books are you planning to read in February?
The Raven King by Maggie Stiefvater
Gemina by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff
im also planning to read Les fiancés de l'hiver!
Im planning on finishing Everybody Sees The Ants. I've only read about 15% so far, but I think I'm going to really like it
Words of Radiance pt. 1 & 2
Moon of the crusted snow by Waubgeshig Rice
Radio silence! Immediately thought of Kat from paperbackdreams
Same 😂
Me too!
Your extreme awesomeness is definitely missed when you don't post for awhile !!
Ommmg diiid ii misss ur viideoooss
Hoppe u gett better
The Shape of Water has been on my TBR for a while. I adored the movie so much! It's not really a movie to book adaptation, both projects are creative collaboration between two artists. They are using their respective mediums (film and writing) to tell the story together. I'm hoping the book adds something more to the beautiful movie because I truly loved it. It's definitely a weird concept but there are many things that make you think differently about what society deems "right".
The cover of foundryside is so beautiful it's on my list too because Regan hasn't stop raving about it!
I'm glad that it's only going to be a mix of new books along with the old. I find a lot of booktubers just review the newest and most hyped books, which is fine since I like keeping up with new releases, but I still love finding older books I haven't heard of yet too. A mix is great.
I love when people read a bit of everything since it's what I do too haha Genre/publication date/age group!
Ohh for the knife of never letting go I strongly recommend listening to the audiobook!! You can do both but omg it’s very immersive
Ah my Library doesn't have it! Physical copy will have to do haha
Letti Lopes Was dp
yup ... in another word, it's being extremely hopeful but at the same time you're so capable of eating bunch of books in a month!!
The Chaos Walking series is my favourite ever, I really hope you enjoy it!
I just read A Winter's Promise and its sequel, The Missing of Clairdelune earlier this month and fall on the side that loves them. I found Dabos' worldbuilding to be very unique. Hope you enjoy! They're quick reads, despite the size.
Stomach bugs are THE WORST! Hope you feel better! 💕
Je suis trop contente que tu lises Les fiancés de l hiver ce mois ci. J' ai lu les trois tomes publiés pour le moment et c'est vraiment une excellente saga. Et aucun rapport avec Harry Potter (vive le marketing). J' espère qu il te plaira !
'Nine Perfect Strangers' was my Book of the Month choice in November. It was pretty good!
I DNFed Nevernight last year because I didn't know there were footnotes on like...every page. Like what? I really wanted to like the book but it's such an odd stylistic choice that it took me out of the story really fast. I hear from fans to skip the footnotes until you're rereading it, so that's probably what I'm going to try next time.
The Priory of the Orange Tree has a f/f romance, I think.
Every time someone brings up Foundryside I get super pumped because it was on my top 3 reads of 2018. Super explosive ending, a thief who's just trying to get by but gets in over her head, and a talking (funny) magical artifact. Loved it!
City of Brass was OMG so good! I couldn't stop. Kingdom of Copper just came out, but I am waiting, as it is meant to become a trilogy.
I just read The Last Time I Lied this month. It was fantastic. I did not see the twist coming. Highly recommend getting to that one soon!! Hope you love it too.
The Shape of water: a romance between a women and aquaman !!!!!! BEST DESCRIPTION EVER !!!! 😂😂😂😂😂 You are awesome !!! - and yeah, orange tree is ... Wow. Found it some time ago in goodreads and now everybody is talking about it o.o
Nevernight! 😍 need to finish book 2 before book 3 comes out!
In February, I am buddy reading the Strange the Dreamer duology with a friend, and Throne of Glass. I'm nervous because these are not small books, but also still excited!
Patrick Ness actually has an adult book called The Crane Wife! A bit of a departure from his newer works, but it still contains his beautiful writing style! Just thought you might want to know!
Foundryside is so good! I hope you enjoy it 😊
I just finished The Poet X. I listened to it as an audiobook and I recommend it...the author reads it and I think it really adds something to it.
I just finished City of Brass and really enjoyed it! It's definitely a slower book but it really sets up the trilogy and this world. Hope you enjoy it too!!
I didn’t know about The Test! I had to preorder it! So excited thanks for talking about it!😊
Foxdad...
oh wrong video!
the Foxprincess is BAAACK!
Lol I'm working on this!
Hope you're feeling better!
Also, your sweater and the cover of 'Brief answers to the big questions' are a perfect match :D
Completely agree that you need to read the grisha trilogy before the six of crows duology I think you get a lot more out of 6 of crows if you read the grisha trilogy first. I read the 6 of crows duology first and felt very okay about it and then read the grisha trilogy and then re read the 6 of crows duology and loved it so much more that time
THANK YOU! There's always someone that comments that they understood everything of SOC without reading the grisha trilogy and all I can think is... no lol
I plan on reading Children of Blood and Bones, The Chaos of Standing Still and The Secret Keeper.
Okay wow that is a looooot of books!
Yay you’re back! Missed you!
Good to see you back👋Emily. Hope your fully recovered ☕️The Great Alone and An American Marriage are 2 of the 48 books on the Booktube prize run by Robert at Barter Hoards.
Super happy to see you post again. Hopefully you'll fully recover soon.
Your TBR is so impressive. I hope you'll be able to achieve most of your goals in February.
What I am curious about though ... Which video games have you been playing and which do you generally enjoy? :3
Welcome back, Emily! I just read the English translation of A Winter's Promise right after Christmas and I have to say I wasn't impressed. It does manage to avoid most of the usual YA tropes, but it has a bunch of other problems.
Like you, I'm looking forward to The Test and Raven Tower. Also planning to read Dread Nation, People's Future of the United States, Broken Stars, and Black Leopard, Red Wolf.
"It's a weird romance between a woman and Aquaman" I laughed so hard I scared my mom
We'll see if my description changes after reading it haha
Wow!! Good luck with that long list of books lol can’t wait to see what you get to :)
Im currently reading "Les fiancés de l'hiver" and i'm loving it. I will be reading "You" from Caroline Kepnes. Soooo excited : )
Super Girl omg YOU was an Ahhhmazing book!! You won’t be able to put it down!
I’m so glad you decided to pick up the Chaos Walking trilogy! Sadly the movie is getting pushed back until March 2020, but at least you’ll have more time to catch up on the series ):
I read Foundryside in January! It was sooooooooooo good! Best book of the month!
Very excited!!
I swear this is like xth time you show a book I'm interested in already to read and was announced to be translated/released soon in my country. It's getting scary but I love it haha
I do think that ‘King of Scars’ will spoil ‘Crooked Kingdom’ since you haven’t read that yet. Because a character from SoC will be in KoS
Hope you feel better soon! Everyone has been so sick here and it's been cold AF as you know. We lost electricity so many times now that the minute Spring arrives I'm getting a generator! The only good thing is my doggie Hazel LOVES the snow! She was built for this weather it seems! Except on the really cold days where the ground hurts her paws and her daddy has to carry her home lol and she's not small 😝
Books wise I just finished Crazy Rich Asians which I actually liked (for some reason I wasn't sure I would and I want to watch the movie tonight) and I ordered the rest of the series so I might read more of those but I started the second book in the Grisha Trilogy yesterday and hope to finish all three so I can get to King of Scars pretty soon! I really need to look at my shelves and see if there's any wintry reads I want to get to though too :)
I couldn't get into the book but it could be because I was trying to read it during hurricane Irma while in Florida lol I LOVED the movie so I'm sure you will too!
Just found your channel and subscribed! I’m super excited about King of Scars because Nikolai is one of my favorite characters as well!
& I definitely think people should read The Grisha Trilogy first before Six of Crows too
I just got The Last Time I Lied on audiobook and I am excited to check it out
I'm so glad you're reading Nevernight! It's one of my favorites!
I'm so excited for Priory of the Orange Tree and The Raven Tower which I am on the wait list at my Library for that I probably won't be able to get my hands on until March! I'll be trying to participate in three readathons next month so the majority of my books will be centered on those. I haven't decided on a TBR for any of them yet other than knowing it will be mostly Fantasy, Romance and some Scifi. The Shape of Water was a very interesting movie, some of the parts were rather....surprising... Glad that you're feeling better and best of luck on your reading!
i think priory of the orange tree is adult ?
yes
im starting grad school this month and i honestly dont know how im gonna keep up with my tbr
1 book at a time .. !!
I got sick yesterday and ended up reading a lot, I was kinda glad I got sick. I wish I could read everyday but with university it's impossible but I've been doing well so far.
Also welcome back!!
I'm reading the shape of water and it's pretty good a little more detailed then the movie and I love the movie
Wow, what an ambitious but really good tbr! I hope you get to them all! Just a side note, I dont want to sound annoying or anything, but if you haven't read Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo you NEED to read it before King of Scars (and I dont believe you have? At least I don't remember you mentioning it haha). I can't really explain without spoiling the book, but unless you had no intentions of reading Crooked Kingdom, you will probably be spoiled for the ending if you read King of Scars first, since a Six of Crows character gets a POV in King of Scars after the events of Crooked Kingdom. I hope I made sense! Again, I hope I'm not being annoying or anything, I just don't want you to spoil yourself!
Also, glad you are feeling better!
Oh good to know! Tbh i'm probably still going to do it lol
@@BookswithEmilyFox haha I don't blame you! I can't wait for it to come out either.
Interesting TBR! Excited see how you will feel about these books :)
I’ve been waiting for a new video! I’m so happy you’re back and feeling better! I’m reading the Knife of Never Letting Go right now and it’s really good so far. I went in completely blind but I prefer this book that way because all of the twists keep me on my toes
Nevernight is definitely a young adult even though the world seems more advanced, but it feels like its written to please younger people. Non the less, I absolutely love that book and the next one as well. So addicting!
Honestly people always say I'm wrong that x book is YA or Adult but really I can only decide after.... and I usually don't agree with the official label lol We'll see how it goes!
BookswithEmilyFox yes! For me, you can’t categorize books based on age, it’s all on maturity. I read the whole throne of glass series, and I started it at 11
You have to read Crooked Kingdom first before you read King of Scars because there are major spoilers for Crooked Kingdom in it
i found the knife of never letting go in a charity shop and the second one, still not sure about reading it but was so cheap i got it lol
im on a reading slump for years XD but im trying to start again with "his dark materials" omnibus XD
Hi Emily, love your channel!! For the big book group, can we have a spoiler thread too so we can discuss the book after?
Good idea! Should I do one for each month/book?
BookswithEmilyFox yeees pleeease!
@@BookswithEmilyFox yes please!!
Love your sweater!
the chaos walking trilogy is one of my favorite of all time
The Knife Of Never Letting Go could be part of your big book challenge. There are 3 books in the series and each is over 500 pages (the 1st book might be a a few pages short of 500). But you'll get through them quickly. I'm a slow reader but they were so good I read them very fast. They are sci-fi books with a touch of fantasy and the plot twists... OMG WOW! You won't see them coming. The way it's written takes a while to get used to. It's written from the perspective of an illiterate child, with some spelling written the way they sound.
I think it depends on the font size and word spacing which being ya means the first book is not really big a book especially considering the others in her tbr.
You’ll get around to all of those, I can feel it!! Good luck!!!
The poet x is so good I just read it this month
Yay! Nevernight! Today russian translation of Nevernight was delivered to me. I think I'll reread it next month!
I really loved the Passage, so I plan to read the second book! I belive it's called Twelve❤️
I was wondering where you were! I hope you’re feeling better! I am so happy with January so far, I’ve read 17 😊 I will have to see if I can get a hold of A winters promise. I haven’t picked any books for a February TBR but I do have my 2019 TBR stack so that’s where I’ll be primarily picking books from and I’m doing the Popsugar challenge so that’s also kind of steering my reading.
The Poet X is sooo good. But you should def do it on audio!!
Hey Emily! Let's try this again (my previous post didn't register). I'm so glad you're back! I've been stalking your channel in the hopes that the youtube algorithm didn't screw up. I find it commendable that you want to read more new releases, but most booktubers and book bloggers get ARCs, don't they? I think publishers should start sending YOU ARCs...you have a lot of subscribers, and are definitely a voice for Canadian Booktube!
On the topic, there is a new Canadian release out called Moon of the Crusted Snow by Waubgeshig Rice. It's about a First Nations family living in a northern reserve and finding outside communication increasingly uncommon/cut off. It's a dystopian or apocalyptic book, and I just bought it...I saw it in Chatelaine mag, and then heard it raved about on Get Booked podcast (by some Americans, surprisingly!). Waub might be familiar because he's a CBC journalist. Anyway, I'm reading it in February, and I wanted to bring it to your attention too. It's a fairly short book :) Hope you feel better soon! Je t'envoi du fricot acadien virtuel :D
Tbh the only ARCs I've been offered are books I have no interest in lol I had hear people say some publishers only give them to Canadians youtubers if they have like 100k.
Tbh for now I don't mind using my library!
Glad you're alive and getting a bit better.
Living in Malaysia Imodium is my best friend 😂 i hope you feel better dear! I want to try to read more re-tellings in 2019. I also want to bite the bullet and start reading Brandon Sanderson but am a bit scared!
yass Radio Silence
'giant mushy friend!' 😂
Yay! So glad your back!! I loved your idea of the big book challenge that I started one of my own. I like that you have some YA on there to mix it up. Good Luck on your TBR! 😊
I think Jay Kristoff categorizes Nevernight as “new adult”, so you weren’t completely wrong! :)
Your pronunciation of Guillermo del Toro was pretty good!! Missed your videos so much 😊
French can be surprisingly close to Spanish at times!
@@BookswithEmilyFox very true!!
Hi Emily! I've read "Les fiancés de l'hiver" and it's such an amazing book! I am glad you picked it up and I cannot wait to hear your review about it.
I understand why people compare it to HP. To be honest, it somehow gives me the kind of same vibe and if I had read it in my teenagehood like I did it for the HP series, I would have been even more hooked up!
I am pretty sure you will love it too. I cannot wait for the author to write the last book! I amso excited about it!
Oooh i have been intrigued by “nine perfect strangers”! I hope you get to it so i can see if i want to pick it ho hahah
So good to see a new video from you 💕 you inspired me to aim to read more “big books” this year!
Ooh i loved The Last Time I Lied! Def the best of his two
I'm in the middle of it and so far I hate it lol
Can't wait to get to that one!
I usually so not plan my reading beforehand because I'm a mood reader and not the fastest reader. And I read most of my books in English and I'm from Finland so English is not my mother language :D But some books that I would like to read in February are the secone book of the Hunger Games trilogy - yes, I'm super late - then continue with A Game Of Thrones and also read The Shining by Stephen King :)
Apparently I can't even write anymore lol
Girl I missed you .... hope you have a much better reading month this time
I just ordered that book in French! But it’s shipping from France so I’m not sure how long it’ll be before I have it. I may try to read that with you, but I’m a lot slower at reading in French than in English haha. Also, I know in the past you have said you prefer to read in English, but I love seeing books originally written in French on your channel! And I love Liane Morriarty
I definitely prefer reading the book in the language it was written... when possible!
the shape of water is one of my favorite movies! i hope the book’s good
I DNF’d Nine Perfect Strangers 😂 will be interested to hear what you think. Also really liked Big Little Lies!
We're off to an interesting start with the confused main character and the lovely description of the "instagram model" lol
BookswithEmilyFox Haha!! I think I got to 10% before it all got too annoying 😂 in my opinion the characters were so underwhelming compared to Big Little Lies!
I just finished A Winter's promise and I really enjoyed it.
I remember seeing a winters promise at my library last week. If it’s still there Monday I’ll pick it up and read it with you :)
I'm looking forward to your thoughts on "The Great Alone". I read it last year and I'm honestly obsessed. But it has domestic violence in it, so be aware
So glad you're back!!! I missed your videos a lot!!! 💖💖💖
Oh I didn’t realize the shape of the water was a movie first.. lol I never saw it but I’ve heard mixed things about it.
Ooo I'm currently reading A Winter's Promise and really enjoying it so far! I'm also listening to the audiobook of The Light Between Worlds, and in February I'm hoping to binge the Chronicles of Narnia.
Love your big book mug!
I just DNF’ed “Nine Perfect Strangers” 🙊 To be honest, I don’t think you’re going to like it... However, good luck with your TBR! And feel better soon.
Helene Jeppesen She ended up reading it in January and hated it! Lol
Definitely gonna be reading at least Nevernight along with you. I just purchased my Kindle and it arrived yesterday and I have the ebook. I'm really excited about it.
So happy to see your face! We have missed you!
Ah so happy to have some new fun books to read (I’m in such a reading rut!) I also LOVE your shirt 😊
Hope you're feeling better, Emily! Having problems with stomach is the worst thing ever😰
Yay!!! I already have the book for this month!
Bless your heart! I hope you’re feeling better now! Pedialyte is great even for adults. Highly recommend it.
I’ll be reading A Winters Promise in February as well!
I’m doing a Roulette TBR each month so I don’t know what I’m reading yet except Six of Crows for the Books with Friends book club with Chloe and Spence 🤓😀
MacInnis Mama how does a roulette tbr works ?
@@YBizzy1 you can do it however you want, its picking the books you read semi randomly. I put in all my unread book titles and authors I want to read more from this year on little pieces paper in a container. I'll choose 2 pieces of paper per month to read alongside the other books I've picked 😊
Emily! I've missed you!
Good luck! You almost have to read a book a day to keep up with all these. 😱
I have a love/hate relationship with A Winter's Promise. I found it an odd one. For me, it was the constant violence towards the main character. I found it really distasteful - and I'm not a precious snowflake about that stuff normally.
I will pick up the next one though because I enjoyed the world as a whole.
Emily, you'll need to read Crooked Kingdom before reading King of Scars, Nina will be in the new book and I'm 99% sure there will be spoilers about what happened in Crooked Kingdom
I just finished reading A Winters Promise. I enjoyed it. It is NOTHING like Harry Potter.
Right? There's nothing to compare! !
good luck! 💗
