As an undiagnosed chronic illness veteran (luckily diagnosed now) i totally get the anxiety and stress of not knowing whats wrong what your body. I really hope you will be able to get help and treatment for it as soon as possible and youre able to take care of yourself ♥️
Your comments on Vicious are so spot on and hilarious. Vengeful definitely dives deeper into Eli's backstory, but I didn't think it was as good as Vicious.
@@newlynova forgot to update after watching earlier (nothing stops me watching your videos) 😅 BEYOND happy you loved it. Lives in my head rent free 24/7
Im so glad you enjoyed Emily Wilde’s Encyclopedia of Faeries. It’s one of my favorite books of the year so far. One thing I don’t think you touched on is that she is HEAVILY autistic coded. That’s why she’s so detached and clinical and can’t figure out why the villagers didn’t like her and the Fairfolk are her special interest. But I also ate the book up. It definitely speaks to your inner pretentious selfishness.
@@kaylashrader232 it’s on my tbr but I have so many Libby holds to get through first so I haven’t been able to read it yet. But I need to read book 2 book 1 lives in my head rent free
@@sophies1999 rebecca Ross has a good lyrical writing style that’s not exactly like this but it’s still good. India Hilton has a new book out called the ornithologists guide to falling in love? I believe that’s what it’s called. But in her books most all have at least one neurodivergent character in it if not more and I’m pretty sure it’s the same way. Her writing style is more posh and pretentious but still entertaining. But if you like the vibe of Wendell and Emily ,howls moving castle by Dianna Wynne jones. Wendell and Emily are howlers and Sophie coded to a t.
I love how she describes the storylines of books. She will take the back of a book that I feel is equivalent to watching paint dry, and make it seem like the most magical and beautiful story to ever exist
NEW LEXI VID!!! my day just got exponentially better. The fries poem was fire??? Glad you liked vicious, I read it in my schools book club this year and thourougly enjoyed it. Viktor and Eli are literally that one meme of "are they lovers? worse." and I am LIVING for it (suffering but living.)
"Fractured fairy tale/fantasy buddy cop story" is the best description for Emily Wilde I've heard to date. Sums up everything I loved most about it tbh. I've got the audiobook of the second book queued up for a road trip I'm taking next week! 🤙
Yeah I have had similar issues with VE Schwab books, but Vicious & Vengeful just... did it for me. She's apparently started working on Victorious (the final book) and I can't wait.
Started working on the third book… recently? I always heard that she was going to write Victorious but then decided to merge the ideas with Vengeful and leave it as a duology
yeah lol I have the full Shades of Magic series and I struggle through the book because of the characters but I just can't DNF it. I think Vicious has the advantage of being sharper/fast-paced because of the premise and the conflict being relatively small in scale. Genuinely feels like you're reading a comic/watching a show sometimes
I'm so glad you liked Emily Wilde! I'm currently on my first reread and somehow love it even more the second time. Also, Wendell is VERY Howl coded and we love that for him!
Juniper and thorn has been unmatched for me for the level of escapism that book gave me. I will be looking for that level of falling head first into a book for the rest of my life now
As someone who easily gets distracted, I loved the Death Note reference, I always love seeing the merging of the anime/manga community and the novel community! Also I hope you feel better soon.
lowkey this vid makes me want to re-read vicious 😂im so glad you liked it!! i hope you vlog yourself reading the sequel because i personally didn't want to even with how much i enjoyed the book but i'd love to hear about it from you!!
I read Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries due to your recommendation. I absolutely LOVED it!!! The characters were well rounded, fun and different. I agree with everything you said about the book
Your themed reading vlogs are my favorite! I’m so excited for this one. Sorry you’re dealing with some health problems. I hope it gets better for you. 💚.
I’m so glad you compared Emily Wilde to the Cruel Prince because that is exactly the comparison I made when recommending it to people. The fae are twisted, mischievous creatures that are wildly beautiful or wildly ugly but also (I think) that Emily/Wendell have a similar vibe to Jude/Carden (a.k.a smart-mean-I’ll-do-it-myself woman/flamboyant-witty-utterly-obsessed-with-her man
I am literally 20 seconds into this video and it's already deeply relatable as usual with "why is my body doing this to me" on the whiteboard. It's truly a new and debilitating level of anxiety when it becones nearly impossible to avoid the thing that's stressing you out because you live in it 24/7. I hope things get better soon ❤
i am going through an absolute trainwreck of a time with my degree right now and your videos are an escape for me. i've added one dark window to my tbr list. lovely video as always, hope the mystery health issues get resolved in the best way possible
Hi! I saw on one of your instagram stories that you were suspecting POTS as the cause of your symptoms. I have ME/CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome) and a lot of the symptoms are similar to POTS. The symptoms can include: extreme exhaustion after physical or mental exercise, problems with memory/thinking skills, dizziness, excessive sleepiness, muscle or joint pain, headaches or sore throat, tender lymph nodes, accelerated heart rate, sensitivity to sound/smells/food/medicine and more. If you’re experiencing some of those symptoms I highly recommend bringing it up to your doctor!! I hope you get some answers soon so you can take the next steps in learning how to best take care of yourself. The process of getting a diagnosis is so hard and discouraging, especially as a woman since our pain is often not taken seriously or believed. I believe you and it’s not all in your head. Wishing you the best of luck and remember to put yourself first!!
I’m so sorry you’ve been dealing with all of the health issues! I hope you are able to get answers soon & you’ve been able to take time for self-care. I know how incredibly stressful and draining anything health related can be. Sending prayers & healing vibes🤍
the second book in the one dark window series is incredible - if you've read the book you'll know that the end sorta throws you for a loop for how the next book will be - but it was just incredible and in many ways better than the first
so so so glad you enjoyed vicious. it's my favorite book. i understand where you're coming from with eli, and trust me, book two will have much more time spent with him. there's also a book three in the works!!
hey lexi. i’m a nurse so when you said you were struggling with your health, it rlly called to me. i hope that you get some answers soon and please know you have my support!!! 🩷
Yes, Lexi!! I’m obsessed with Emily Wilde and the second book is even better!! Fantasy is my go to disassociating genre and I needed new recommendations
So glad you enjoyed Emily Wilde's Encyclopedia!! The way you describe Wendell's charm, "walked ass backwards into liking him", I couldn't help but laugh. I'm excited to see what you think of the sequel, since personally, having really enjoyed the first book, I loved the second even more. Hope you continue having a whimsical and fun time with the series :)
I literally just finished Emily Wilde tonight and opened up TH-cam to see this video. We love a socially awkward fmc with a major case of the grumpies paired with an obsessed himbo mmc with a side of oblivious violence teehee I also read the Shepherd King duology this month, and you hit the nail on the head. Just a standard fantasy that hits all the tropes so comfortingly. Nothing new, but still such a good time.
Vengeful will give you the info you need ... I am also SO RELIEVED to hear that you also noticed and mentioned the freaking sparks between them! UGH READ VENGEFUL so I can hear your take🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻✨✨✨✨
Saw Vicious in the thumbnail and I dropped EVERYTHING for this video. I've been following your reviews for a bit now for book suggestions, and as an avid lover of the Villains series, I'm SO happy to see you enjoyed Vicious!! I typically trust your judgement with book tier lists, but it helps to know that our tastes align. Can't wait for the next vid!
Lexi, you are absolutely my favourite TH-camr. Your reading vlogs legit helped me get out of my 5 year reading hiatus. Thank you so much. I hope you are on the mend soon, and even if your videos are few and far between, I think all of us here appreciate every second.
I'm so glad you liked Vicious!! I love it so much and Evervale (which btw best ship name ever) give me life! There's some pretty good fics with them (which explore the "what if they had just kissed" scenario) on ao3, very much recommend
as a ve schwab fan (vicious is my favorite book of theirs too!), vengeful goes WAY more in depth with eli's character building jsyk!! a lot of people dont like vengeful but i honestly really love it, specifically because of the character building around eli that we dont get in vicious! its definitely worth a read if you loved vicious (-: also yes they are definitely bi (canonically btw!) and in love/hate (even the author ships it lol!)
i love your content so much butttt i can’t hear you talk about/introduce books that are on my TBR cause i feel like you give too much away for my liking 😭
off topic but I'm in the middle of a book called "How to be Eaten" and I think you'd enjoy it! It's a loose fairy tale retelling in which the subjects of various fairy tales (e.g., Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, etc.) are in a collective support group. It's really interesting to see how the author reimagined their stories and the writing style is really good. plus, it's only 286 pages long
I love Vicious so much and Vengeful will definitely give you the character development for Eli you're looking for. We learn about his background and spend a lot of time in his head; by the time I was done with the two books, he was my (morally bankrupt) poor little meow meow. And I'm so glad you saw the romantic tension between him and Victor because it was soooooo palpable to me as a reader. I can not get enough of their weird little relationship.
Yeeesss I’m so glad you read Encyclopedia of Faeries!!! I’m currently reading it rn, trying to fight a horrible slump so its taking me so long, and every time I pick it up it’s always a good time!
Saw this yesterday but saved it for today, somehow sensing that I would need the boost. (Woke up with a terrible sinus headache and it's the most stressful time of the month at work. Most definitely needed the boost) Thanks Lexi!
the ending too the one dark window series is CHEFS KISS, two twisted crowns WAS EVEN BETTER than the first in my opinion i also thought it was such a fun read, didn’t give teen but also was just easy and fun like reading a good teen fantasy novel
Hope you’re feeling well soon! Yet again: a banger of a video. I loved Vicious and I’m so relieved you liked it haha. And your Emily Wilde review has me so excited to read it off my August TBR! ❤
this past month i have just consumed most of your videos one after another and not only have i been thoroughly entertained the entire time, they’ve also reignited my love for reading and got me to add a ton of books to my reading list. so thank you for that! you are genuinely so awesome sauce :•)
this is such a fun channellll 😭 this has like become my comfort channel ever since i last found you a few days ago, this is so nice! love ur content sm
I love love love when you enjoy the books you read! Angry reviews are fun but there is something about human joy and passion that is captivating. Love the vid bestie hope whatever is troubling you gets resolved ❤
I’ll definitely have to check out Vicious!! I’m in the middle of reading The Reckoners series by Brandon Sanderson, which similarly has a world which revolves around superhuman villains. If that’s your jam, you should really give it a go because it’s seriously so good and immersive. It’s YA and not super intense in comparison to other media in its niche, but enjoyable nonetheless.
as an avid ve reader i'm SO glad you found their book for you. i think that's what i find so great about their work, there will almost always be something for everyone. also you will be pleased to know vengeful has a lot of eli!!!!! he's honestly my favourite
Omg I was just thinking about your channel and here you are! You're so real for finally finding a book to hold your interest, I just went through the same thing. I went on a reading rampage and then it was gone. Funnily enough Anne of Green Gables pulled me out of the funk, back to my historical fiction roots ❤
Vicious is the oldest book i have on my physical TBR! I never hear anyone talk about it anymore but you’ve really convinced me to finally pick it up this fall

I'M UP I'M UP
Lexi just fully spitting bars while making up a poem about fast food 💀💀💀
"it's fruity. It's fruity, I'm sorry" took me out. The delivery was on point
I’m so glad you said it about victor and Eli because yes there is nothing straight about that book
"strange nouns" are a PILLAR of the fantasy genre, love this whole thing
As an undiagnosed chronic illness veteran (luckily diagnosed now) i totally get the anxiety and stress of not knowing whats wrong what your body. I really hope you will be able to get help and treatment for it as soon as possible and youre able to take care of yourself ♥️

honestly that poem slaps. i need all my future fast food orders to be in the form of rhyming couplets from now on.

"It has strange nouns..." 😂 Banger right off the top.
Your comments on Vicious are so spot on and hilarious. Vengeful definitely dives deeper into Eli's backstory, but I didn't think it was as good as Vicious.

There are definitely some unresolved feelings in Vicious. They are so clearly in love with each other
I love how she describes the storylines of books. She will take the back of a book that I feel is equivalent to watching paint dry, and make it seem like the most magical and beautiful story to ever exist

Her liking a ve Schwab book is the validation I needed.c goodnight ladies and gents
words cant describe the thrill that went through me when i saw the notification for this video, truly a banger
Emily wilde’s encyclopedia got me back into reading its a trilogy. I read the first two and I’m anxiously awaiting the third installment.😊

Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries was amazing, literally got me out of my winter gloomies last year.
encyclopedia of faeries has one of my favorite relationship dynamics which is thinly-veiled affection masquerading as annoyance (love u Wendell 🫶🏻)
i was SCARED to watch this bc i’m a ride or die vicious stan but omfg i’m so glad you loved it!!!
also i just know that your fav character arc from a conjuring of light HAD to be holland🤞🏼 and same
off topic but I'm in the middle of a book called "How to be Eaten" and I think you'd enjoy it!

one dark window is good, but two twisted crowns is DELICIOUS it is a sequel done right 😮💨

Also, hope you are feeling better! Love your videos 💕

K I read Emily Wildes encyclopedia of faeries and I adore it on a level I cannot describe 5 out of 5 stars

And I'm so glad you saw the romantic tension between him and Victor because it was soooooo palpable to me as a reader. I can not get enough of their weird little relationship.
You should totally do a video that’s like “finishing all my unfinished duologies”
I'm so glad you liked Vicious! And Emily Wilde. I had such a good time w those too.

something for me to watch on a 10-hr drive!! yay me!!!

Emily Wilde was one of my faves I read this year. The Audiobook version was great, too. I loved that it helped me “disappear” into it as well.
I recently read One Dark Window and Two Twisted Crowns and I absolutely loved both of them. Just fantastic vibes and exactly what I needed.
