Did I hear Unhaul? I'm all ready for the tea spilling Emily! 🙈
Spill all the tea you want just please don't waste any coffee !
Next video!! :D
We live a tea spilling Queen 👑 😊
Can’t wait 😂
Am I the only one with exams and too much work?😭 I haven’t been able to read much in May but fingers crossed for June. 🤞🏻
May was my worst reading month so far too! I have had school projects and finals. >
Summer is the best to do all the reading!!
I don't usually comment on youtube but your videos are really enjoyable. Thank you so much
Daisy Jones and the Six is amazing! Also, yes do listen to it on audiobook. It’s much better and a freakin’ amazing audiobook, coz the book is all in dialogue format mostly.
Manaal Siddiqui I agree! I love the audiobook!
I borrowed it on the overdrive app but I want to borrowed it again!
I DEVOURED The Husband's Secret in a day, a couple of years ago, before the Big Little Lies fever... hope you enjoy it!!
Hey Emily, I think it would be a good idea to either list the books titles or type the titles on your videos. It would help people find the books.
CITY OF STAIRS. that trilogy has been my biggest surprise of the year, it is INCREDIBLE!!!
The Count of Monte Cristo is amazing!! One of my favorites
Not enough people wear yellow! Your shirt instantly put a smile on my face and I haven't started the video yet
Not everyone can pull it off 😅 I always think my skin coloring looks weird if I wear yellow. Emily looks beautiful though.
I love wearing yellow clothes but it attracts insects! 😅😩
@@alana2998 It does :O Eww
I've told my wife to physically pull me away from book shops if I try to go in, that's how out of control my to-read pile is lol.
Having so many books provides loads of material for my weekly both reviews though
I have such a love/hate relationship with your TBR videos. 🤣 Your taste and mine converge so much I always wind up with several new books on my TBR.
Honestly, an empty TBR is just so sad... so I'm okay with a never ending list :D
I'm currently reading The Count of Monte Cristo and OMG its amazing! I'm halfway through it and I'll be finishing it in next week ! I😃💜
A Little Life turned out to be one of those books that slayed me. I felt a connection to both of the main characters and was basically ugly crying the last quarter of it. It is not just the horrible events but also how the characters react to them. It is the type of novel where one needs an emotional hook to get the best out of it. And lucky for me that I did because despite all the deep deep sadness and hopelessness it was a great reading experience.
A Little Life is such a wonderful book!! The best book I've read so far this year!!! But it IS a tear jerker.
How to Stop Time is a great great book. It's unique.
So with Daisy Jones, Evelyn Hugo was definitely way better - I think you're smart for going for the audio book. The format it's written in definitely detracted from my overall enjoyment. I'm currently on the library waiting list to get the audio book to compare. But it was an enjoyable book!
Joanna Pats how is it written? Are there a lot of footnotes?
Children of Ruin was flipping fantastic!!!
I just finished A Little Life! Basically yes everything does go wrong and it has every trigger warning imaginable but oh my it is the best book I have EVER read!!! EVER!!!
Loved Children of Time. So underrated. Every time I was like oh it's going there, okay. Bam! Completely went another way. It was so good 👍 excited to read Children of Ruin soon myself.
If you're wanting another Liane Moriarty more along the lines of Big Little Lies, I would recommend What Alice Forgot. Similar tone, super engaging, great build. Liked it more than The Husband's Secret and *maybe* even more than Big Little Lies!
I've found that all Liane Moriarty books are all just meh. Loved the Seven Husband's Of Evelyn Hugo - so yeah, will be reading Daisy Jones and The Six next.
I'm calling it right now. You're going to love Seveneves.
The Husband’s Secret is amazing!!!!! Can’t wait to see what you think
I just added 5 books to my summer TBR because of this. Love your videos
Same! 💙
I do that every time. And I don’t read as many books at her, so my TBR just gets bigger and bigger
A never ending TBR is the best ❤️
There's actually a sci-fi element to The Knife of Letting Go!
How To Stop Time will star Benedict Cumberbatch! Makes me want to read the book solely based on that 🤣🤣
The count of Monte Cristo is the best thing that happened to me as a reader
About the chaos walking movie: I believe it was pushed back until next year. And I also think that all three books are combined into one movie.
Glad to see you reading Hyperion and the Sparrow and some less talked about books!
A Little Life is my favorite book ever written at the moment. I will be rereading this summer.
Who else is super ready for the unhaul video???! 😲 better get some tea! 🥰 I definitely want to hear your review on Daisy Johnson and the Six to see if I want to pick it up! oh yeah! I just finished Kiss of Deception and really enjoyed it! thank you for bringing it into my life 🥰
If you like scifi, Exhalation is fantastic! I picked it up randomly from the library and could not put it down. I'm excited to read his other one that you mentioned.
So I found your beauty channel a few months ago and binged all your lipswatch videos. Then yesterday I'm on good reads and see "Bookswith EmilyFox" and thought "Wow she ripped off that beauty person I follow." Then I clicked your profile and realized , you ARE Emily Fox. So now I'm binging your booktube videos. Its so cool to see other people interested in both makeup and reading. :) Love this video. Hope you get through your TBR. Loving all the sci-fi.
You've got some great books on your list, Emily! The Sparrow, Hyperion, and both RJB series are great. Regarding Seveneves...it has some big ideas, but personally I found it rather frustrating.
Yesss finally, A Little Life. I read it after you showed it on your channel in an older video and I'm so obsessed with it. It's amazing and I can't wait to hear your thoughts!
I literally GASPED when you pulled out "A Little Life" it's on my list as well, and I'm kinda dreading it. :)
I have A Little Life sitting on my shelf just waiting.....it's been there for at least a year. Maybe this will be the push I need to finally start it. Great TBR, Emily! Hope you're doing well 😊
The knife of never letting go is so amazing! The writing style is kind of odd in the beginning but really adds to the story
Oh and I thought the Tattooist of Auschwitz was kind of horrible 😂
plus loved how to stop time 🥰
You inspired me to give sci fi a chance. I saw the video where you recommend sci fi for beginners and am now reading The long walk to a small angry planet.
I haven't read Stories of Your Life yet but the cover of your copy is infinitely better than my Arrival movie tie in edition.
I would read a book about stairs disappearing.
I will definitely read Seveneves with you! It has been on my TBR forever! I am excited that I found a booktuber that likes ScFi. That is basically the only genre I read. I also read Fantasy!
If you like seanan mcguire, you should try her other pen name, Mira Grant. Particularly into the drowning deep. It's about mermaids but not the lovey dovey kind, it's very dark.
I've read another one by her under that name (parasite?) which was just okay :/
Oh, Spin is really nice, I really enjoyed it! There's also a second and a third book but I couldn't really get into them for some reason...BTW really nice to find a sci-fi fan booktuber, really appreciate that :)
The Lady Vaults book club is picking up The Sparrow in August, if you want to join us on Goodreads to discuss it :) Regardless, I'll look forward to your opinion on it!
Tbh I started reading more sci-fi thanks to you! ❤️
Same here haha
You will love Foundryside.!
SPIN is a fantastic book. Can't wait to hear to what you think of it.
Hyperion is SO GOOD!!!
This is only the second video of yours I've seen so I'm still getting a feel for your reading choices but with that being said I LOVED reading Seveneves. I really enjoy hard science fiction where there's a problem and how through science and technology that problem can be solved and this one was one of those books. The book is huge but doesn't feel bloated. I really enjoyed the science in it and it felt like this could really happen. I am enjoying your videos so far. You have gained a subscriber.
A little life and seveneves are two of my favs!!! Different genres yes but amazing books. I hope you enjoy them ❤️
OMG What lipstick is that? It looks AMAZING on you!
NYX powder puff in best buds!
Please please please only read A Little Life when you’re really feeling it!! It was my favourite one last year and my mom just read it and she really didn’t like it. This led to very interesting discussions tho...but you really need to be in the mood! And DONT expect a realistic sad life story! All of the characters are at the peak of they’re supposed to be and are like the epitome of their roles. I’m really interested in your review tho 🙈
I'm so excited for you to read How to Stop Time. It was one of the last books my dad recommended to me before he passed, and I read it and loved it. I'm glad I got to discuss it with him, and I look forward to your thoughts too. I hope you love it!
Out of Liane Moriarty's books, I feel like you'd prefer What Alice Forgot over The Husband's Secret. But yay! A Little Life was tragic but beautifully so. Hope you enjoy it!
And Daisy Jones? Yeessss!
Adored both Robert Jackson Bennett books, disliked Knife of Never Letting Go. Many of the rest are also on my TBR so I'll try to read along if I can get them from my library! Happy reading! 📚
I finished Count of Monte Cristo earlier this year because you kept saying the first part was so good!! I loved it and hope you do too! You have so many amazing books ahead of you this summer! (And some that are on my TBR as well)
I love unhaul videos more than hauls! I'm planning to read City of Stairs as well, and my main goal is to read more "old" fantasy series to take a break from YA romance-infused fantasy (Pullman, Lewis, Williams, Le Guin, Zimmer Bradley)
YAS! I get excited whenever you mention sci-fi books I don't know yet, because I've really gotten into it lately and I just want moooooore 🔥❤
Sci Fi deserves so much more love :D
I bought A Little Life when you first hauled it a while back. So excited it was finally picked for your big book of the month! It’s the one I’ve been most excited to read and it’s my birthday month!
You should do a reading vlog for A Little Life. It is my all time favorite book but I have never finished it. I have read all but the last 80 or so pages 4 times now but once I get to that point I cant rad through my tears. I ended up missing my husbands work party a few years ago because I was reading this book and unconsolable.
YES THE SPARROW 🙏🏽 I will be rereading that along with you! Also I plan to read Seveneves with you too! And City of Stairs was SO good.
Your camera still loves the count 😂Weird how it doesn't focus on the cover with the woman on it just the guy...Loved your selection, I added quite a few of those books to my Tbr :)
I'm jealous of y'all's reading speed. I consider it a success if I read 1 book in 2 weeks. My Goodreads goal of the year is 12 lmao.
My reading speed mostly stems from extreme boredom on my 3h commute everyday xD 12 Books a year is a Gold Goal tho, i spent the past few years reading none xD
Just yasssssss to all of them!
Spin is incredible! One of my favourite sci-fi books. I hope that you enjoy it. Hyperion is another favourite.
It's one of the next books I'm picking up... I'm super excited!!
BookswithEmilyFox I’m looking forward to seeing what you think!
I love How To Stop Time by Matt Haig. Good luck with your TBR 🙂 Also did I hear unhaul? Can't wait for that video.
I've almost finished The Shadows of Self and it's much better than the first book. It has more connections to the first Era than the Alloy of Law. It's a bit slow the first 30-50 pages, but then the stiry unfolds and becomes a page turner.
A Little Life.... oh man, I started that one last year but I wasn't in the right mood to read it, but now I really want to pick it up again!!
How To Stop Time is also on my summer tbr! GOOD LUCk with your tbr!
I just purchased a Little Life Saturday!!
Seveneves is weirdly paced, but I still think about it, it was so good! Hopefully you'll enjoy it as much as me.
Thanks for the heads up! I'm super excited though since the premise is right up my alley!
So excited that Little Life is the next big book! I'm very intimidated by it and I'll definitely join to read it with you 😊 I also hated Liane Moriarty's newest book and unfortunately didn't like The Husband's secret either. The premise is super interesting but the book is filled with fat shaming which was a huge turn off for me 😑
I also have The Husband's Secret on my TBR, it will be my first book by Liane Moriarty, I hope I will like it :)
I'd like to read Le compte de Monte-Christo at some point, I really want to try Alexandre Dumas!
Have you tried Scribd? You wouldn't need to wait for audiobooks anymore and it's not very expensive :)
One my friends raved to me about Hyperion, it sounds so good!
Morgane Krauth yesss I really love Scribd! I read a lot more books through the audiobooks! And it's cheaper than audible
I feel exactly the same as you with summer being the perfect time to catch on my TBR. Good luck with your summer reading! :)
Hmmm but do I WANT to cry 🤔🥺 lol
I do want to read Foundryside, Middle Game, and the Bardugo and Kuang books (I’m behind)
I read Tattooist and enjoyed it and definitely cried.
I have been sleeping on 7 Husbands I should really prioritize it 😅
I read Seveneves a few months ago, it was like a trilogy all in one book because of the different parts. I liked getting the story all in one book instead of waiting for more books.
I suggest listening to the knife of never letting go. I just finished the trilogy on audible. I enjoyed the first 2 books a lot. I really liked the narrators. Personally, I think the audiobook made the story more enjoyable.
Hey, scifi fan over here:D My fav series is The Expanse... I never comment but i wanted to tell you I love your channel especially because of THOSE books!!! Please keep spreading the scifi love 🚀👩🚀🌌
I didn’t hate Middlegame but I really wish it was written very differently. The promised plot takes ages to start and you don’t ever get very much about the Impossible Kingdom
Both of Ted Chiang’s collections are pure gold!
I love those light mystery beach book. Please do a whole video with all your recommendations in that genre for the summer vacations ❤️ pleas please please
Wow!! Great minds think alike. I just checked out The Sparrow from my library because the premise was so intriguing. I also got The Poppy War.
I'm almost done with it and so far my mind is blowed and can't wait to see how it ends!!
I'm so looking forward to your review of the Tattooist of Auschwitz, I was really hyped to read it and it just felt flat for me, I felt like I was making myself like the book "just because", because I really really wanted to like it!
I'm currently reading Daisy Jones & The Six, and somehow it's been harder than I thought, because I loved The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo so I was really looking forward to reading more by the author! It's a good book, I think I'm maybe not in the right mood for it 🤔
I’m starting Children of Time tomorrow! So pumped!
And I’m looking forward to your review of Seveneves!
Enjoyed this. You read some good books!
Hyperion is amazing!! Glad you're reading it!
YAAS! More sci-fi! Seveneves! YAAAAAAS!
I love science fiction! I'll definitely join you in reading the Seveneves book for August!
I'm using the prompts on the bingo board for Reading Women in summer. I'm hoping it helps me whittle down my 60+ TBR pile.
Planning to read Children of Ruin! I've got the book on its way and I can't wait to start!!!
ooh, I'll definitely been joining for Le Conte de Monte Cristo, I've been putting it off so here we go I guess ahaa- I think the second era of mistborn gets better as the books go, the third one has some really interesting twists!
I think I've mentioned this earlier but I don't usually plan my reading beforehand because I'm such a mood reader. But for June my one big goal is to read and finish The Stand by Stephen King.. :D It's the next book in the publication order that I'm reading his works. I already felt like I was getting some kind of a flu so I think the book is doing it's magic :D
I would also like to (finally) finish A Clash of Kings by George R. R. Martin. I have been reading it since March and I was supposed to get it finished in April but then my life got too busy. So these two big books are my priority. I will go to my boyfriend's uncle's summer cottage for midsummer party so I think I'll take a few shorter and ligther books there with me, instead of The Stand. I have a huge pile of library books that I need to read so I guess I'll pick something from there. But I'll still try to finish The Stand in June or at least in the beginning of July!
I hope you'll finish all those big books in your summer tbr! I really want to read A Little Life some say in the future. The Tattooist of Auschwitz sounds so good! I would also like to start reading Liane Moriarty's books, I already own three of them but haven't read any... :"D In August I'll read some books located in Italy or written by italian authors because I'll travel to Italy in August. So there is kind of a theme in that month.
You should read the whole warriors series, it's about cats and has like 50 books
I think I will join you in some of these. A little life, Foundryside, Shadows of Self and Hyperion have been on my tbr for some time so I should just read them already
City of Stairs is soo good!!
I loved Shadow of Self so much (and Bands of Mourning, and I need the last book in this era to come out soon), so I hope you enjoy it. I've got Abaddon's Gate (book three from the Expanse series) on my TBR for this month, and then a bunch of chick lit and contemporary ya because it's summertime, I've basically read non-stop sci-fi and fantasy through winter and spring, and I just want some feel good fluff in my life. I want to fit The Way of Kings, King of Scars, the last two books in the Broken Earth trilogy, the rest of the Expanse series, and Cosgrave in this summer, but honestly, I don't know that I'm going to get to any of them until the fall because I'm just about over sci-fi and fantasy for the moment, but we'll see.
Between you raving about Children of Time and my husband recently reading and enjoying it, now I really want to pick it up!
It's so different!
I think I'll be joining you June and July for the big book challenge! :D
I liked the Daisy Jones and the 6. It was different from the Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, equally enjoyable. I prefered Daisy Jones because it read like a music documentary
go into how to stop time with low expectations; it’s not as good as the humans so it was a bit of a let down in comparison. also gave me pretty strong “15 first lives of harry august” vibes, but again not done as well, so i’d say still read it, but don’t expect greatness from it.
Ooh. Okay, so for the knife of never letting go, I recommend the Audiobook. I think that it's probably the way to go considering all of the spelling mistakes, and I remember liking the audiobook version a lot
I've heard that but my library doesn't have it so I'll stick to my physical copy sadly haha Hopefully it doesn't bother me too much!
