Definitely post the video after the covers have been revealed! It's so much fun getting to see your reactions and how close you are (or aren't) to them!
I definitely got lucky with this one that they all got revealed close together, when I plan the concept there's no way to know for sure when the reveals will be!! It's so tough to plan cause what if I have to wait like 6 months in between reveals hahaha #stress
@@BooksandLala That's such a good point! And I'm sure you'd wanna post videos you worked hard on rather than sitting on them. Someone mentioned in the comments that you could post the video before the covers have been revealed and then react to them in a reading vlog. That would be cool too! We'll support whatever you decide!
The fact that we already know Finlay Donovan book 4 and it is pretty much the exact same as your yellow car design is crazy !! You're so talented at designing these covers!!!
I love having the reveals in the video, assuming they're available. But if there are future installments, you can always pop into one of those to share a reveal from a previous video or share it in a vlog where you haul or read that book or something. Loved everything about this!
This is literally my favorite video concept of yours, partly because its fascinating but mostly because you're just so damn good at it!!!! Please please please 🙏 do this again soon! I had so much fun watching this video!!
I’m choosing to believe that the rest of the Finley Donovan series is going to just be titles off of your list! I will be so surprised if they don’t do a few of those 😂
I love it! And I love your yellow and green cover for Finlay Donovan! They SHOULD make that the next cover!! And I do prefer this format in which you wait to see the reveal on camera before you post the video! 🥰
Ahhhh I love these videos so much they are so much fun! And the way I low key prefer your cover designs over the actual book covers!!!! You have such a talent for designing book covers omg I love the Finlay Donovan in the car cover sooooo much!
The way your mind works through these and problem solves them is so fascinating. My career goal is to work in book publishing and I hope to have a say in these types of decisions one day and I will absolutely be returning to these videos with I do!!
I love that you waited till all of them were revealed, whenever that’s possible I think that’s the best way to go since its sooooo fun seeing what you come up with vs the final result! Although just hearing your thought process is also a lot of fun! Thanks for sharing!
the gasp at the first look at Leigh Bardugo’s next book and then the quick jump to a Kelly Clarkson Wayfair ad. When I tell you I was on the edge of my seat… I really enjoy these videos! Thank you for sharing your creativity with us.
Soo glad you did a part two!! Part one is top 3 favorite videos you’ve ever done. Fun to see your other talent (besides reviewing books that is). You’re so good at this!
I love how you explain your thought process for the designs! I’m not a graphic designer but I’m definitely like “mhmm, I would make the same choice” as you’re designing lol love this series.
I love this SO MUCH!! Your designs and reasoning behind them are fun an interesting, I want this series to go on forever. I definitely prefer you wait to post the video until the covers are released, I love seeing your reactions to them 💜
Omg the sculpter that made that rabbit is one of my favorite artists when I was in art school!!! Ahhh I’ll have to track her name down again. So exciting
Oh I'm so glad you did a second part to this video and are definitely going to do more videos like this-- I love this series!! I prefer having the reveals in the video, it just ties everything up so nicely. And I don't think you're giving yourself enough credit, I personally think you got pretty damn close to the actual covers!! As an absolute stan of Wayward Children thanks to you, I'll bet my left pinkie toe that the cover you created is ABSOLUTELY going to be a cover of one of the the future books, even if it's 7 books down the line, I can feel it!!
Kayla?!?! Your concepts?!?!? Your design skills? Your brain?!??! Incredible. Truly a delight to watch and you bring the best concepts to life with such organization. 💖
I absolutely love when you do this!! It’s so fun, and close or not, your created covers are always great and something I could totally see!! I LOVED your Lost in the Moment and Found cover! (Obviously the actual one is beautiful too) I like when you wait to post the video so we can see your reactions to the covers, it’s fun seeing all of it. 😊
LOVE that you are going to be doing more of this!! They’re so fun and you’re so good at predicting things! I like being able to compare your guesses to what they actually look like 🥰
I love this video series! It's so fun seeing your designs & thought process. As long as the covers are revealed in a timely manner I do like getting to see your reactions and comparing/contrasting to all of them!
You are too good at everything I swear, these covers are better than most of the professionally done ones! However, I was absolutely YELLING for you to make the And in 'Sulfur And Sin' into an ampersand LOL
I actually prefer your covers for pretty much all of these! The publishers should hit you up for some designs as you're insanely good at this. I loved this video, would love for this to become a series!
I love your creativity! I'm glad you waited until all the covers were revealed to post your reactions. Your reactions and seeing your versions side by side with the actual covers is the best part of the video, in my opinion. I will say that even though you went with smoke for Hell Bent instead of a rabbit (how could you have known?)... you really weren't too far off! The rabbit on the cover is in a similar shape of the smoke you conceptualized. Also, I would guess if Finlay Donovan is ever behind a wheel, it would be more of a color blocked circle, instead of a definable wheel... just to stick with the color blocking theme they have going. Love these videos!
Hey bestie! Looove this series. Here's some ideas for next time: 1. Donut Fall in Love by Adiba Jaigirdar (2023 release) 2. Natural Disasters by Ashley Winstead (2023 release) 3. Midnight Is the Darkest Hour by Ashley Winstead (2023 release) 4. Self-Made Boys: A Great Gatsby Remix by Anna-Marie McLemore (2022 release)
I love these videos, they're so much fun! Watching your thought process designing the covers is so fascinating. I definitely love having the actual cover reveals at the end of the video so we can see them all in the same video, as long as they come out in a fairly timely fashion.
I think you were pretty successful this round. The Finlay cover was creepily similar. Although, it is driving me crazy that 'Jumps' is a different color than 'the gun'!
This is probably my new favorite series of yours 😍😍 also there was a very well placed ad after the gasping reaction to Leigh Bardugo’s cover so kudos if that was intentional 😆
This is my favourite series of all time! I love the thought process behind guessing the covers. I prefer the current format where your reaction to the cover reveal is in the video 😊
This was so fun to watch!!! I am completely impressed! I could never bring a cover to life like that! I like to see all the covers revealed in one video. ❤ Thanks for your amazing content!
You are so freakin talented, as a graphic design major this makes me excited to get to learn how to use more editing software. Alsooooo super random but you’re hair game is amazingggg u make me want to get a baleaige ombreeee
What a marketing mastermind! Someone needs to pay you for the amount of work you’ve put in, especially on the Seanan McGuire. That was a work of art… I barely know how to work the paint app lol
I liked seeing the side by side comparison so I would love it you could try and do that for the next video as well! Even though your wayward children guess what way off, if I saw your cover design at the bookstore, I'd instantly grab it!
I genuinely think this might be my favourite series you've ever done - which is a big call because I love all your videos. I like that I get the reveal in the same video so it's worth the wait for sure!
I just love when you do these videos, Kayla! So creative! 🖤 Also thank you for introducing me to some new books with the ones you put up for comparisons. Can't wait for the next one!
This was such a fun video, and you did a great job with the covers. Even if they didn't match exactly what the reveals turned out to be, your covers looked like they could've legitimately been real books. I love your talent and attention to detail. And I like the idea of you waiting for all of the covers to be revealed to post the video like you did rather not waiting like you were going to. I think it just fills out the video and makes it more fun even if we have to wait longer for it.
Not gonna lie there are times I go months without watching your videos but I can't deny your creativity. All it takes is me clicking on 1 video and I'm down the rabbit hole that is your video catalog. Your ideas are so original and you're really talented and put so much into your ideas/videos. I applaud you 👏. Shout out to you and your 🧠 😀😃😉
Definitely post the video after the covers have been revealed! It's so much fun getting to see your reactions and how close you are (or aren't) to them!

The fact that we already know Finlay Donovan book 4 and it is pretty much the exact same as your yellow car design is crazy !! You're so talented at designing these covers!!!
The fact that leigh bardugo initially wanted to name the sequel "gentleman demon" AHAHAHAHA
I love having the reveals in the video, assuming they're available. But if there are future installments, you can always pop into one of those to share a reveal from a previous video or share it in a vlog where you haul or read that book or something. Loved everything about this!
When you inverted the Ninth House sequel cover I gasped because you accidentally nailed down the color theme! Such a genius haha
The way your covers of Finlay are just THAT much better than the real one ….
This is literally my favorite video concept of yours, partly because its fascinating but mostly because you're just so damn good at it!!!! Please please please 🙏 do this again soon! I had so much fun watching this video!!
I’m choosing to believe that the rest of the Finley Donovan series is going to just be titles off of your list! I will be so surprised if they don’t do a few of those 😂
Kayla I'M STILL STUNNED AT THE FINLAY COVER!!! I loved having all the reveals at the end as well!
I honestly prefer your covers for Finlay over the real one, but oh well! So fun to see your reactions in the video, love this series.
Any books scheduled to be re-released with new re-mastered covers? That could be a fun one to predict 🤔
ooooooh fun
Since when do we get a little 30second trailer?!?! Awesome
Kayla: hates road trip books
Also Kayla: I need Finlay Donovan to go on a road trip
I came here to find these comments 😂 we stan a complex queen
I love it! And I love your yellow and green cover for Finlay Donovan! They SHOULD make that the next cover!! And I do prefer this format in which you wait to see the reveal on camera before you post the video! 🥰
I think this has sneakily become one of my favorite series on your channel, I'd watch endless episodes of this!
Ahhhh I love these videos so much they are so much fun! And the way I low key prefer your cover designs over the actual book covers!!!! You have such a talent for designing book covers omg I love the Finlay Donovan in the car cover sooooo much!
I love it when you wait until all the covers are revealed! It’s so fun to see how close you get!!!

THERE'S A TRAILER?!? QUEEN OF BOOKTUBE OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!
I love that you waited till all of them were revealed, whenever that’s possible I think that’s the best way to go since its sooooo fun seeing what you come up with vs the final result! Although just hearing your thought process is also a lot of fun! Thanks for sharing!

I really enjoy these videos! Thank you for sharing your creativity with us.
All i can imagine is the guy from the meme with the pictures on the bulletin board with yarn, being Kayla's mind 24/7
I love the car cover so much =) and I so hope there comes a Wayward Children book with your kind of cover as well, because it is just beautiful.
I seriously hope these authors see this video because the amount of work and thought you put into these HAS to be the highest form of flattery 💕
Ohhhh a trailer??? So cool haha I’m so excited for this video!! I loved the last one so much 😍
Soo glad you did a part two!! Part one is top 3 favorite videos you’ve ever done. Fun to see your other talent (besides reviewing books that is). You’re so good at this!

I personally really liked having this video with the cover reveals at the end instead of something else!
Omg the sculpter that made that rabbit is one of my favorite artists when I was in art school!!! Ahhh I’ll have to track her name down again. So exciting

This is my favourite video series of all time. I love that you waited for all three covers to be fully revealed! 🤩
I would probably die of anticipation if I had to wait for the reveals.
Kayla?!?! Your concepts?!?!? Your design skills? Your brain?!??! Incredible. Truly a delight to watch and you bring the best concepts to life with such organization. 💖
These are so fun! Love how close you were on Finlay Donovan! Definitely wait until all the covers are revealed if possible!

" . . . mostly because I really want to put Finlay behind a bush." 😂 I love this series so much!
As an art school grad designer-y person (I've been a graphic designer but not currently) , these are my absolute favourite videos of yours!
I adore this series! I love finding out how close you are to the cover with you so I hope you continue to wait until they're all revealed.
I liked this “timely manner” because I love to know how you did right away.
You nailed the Finley Donovan! This is a cool concept for a video
Cover creators watch out- Kayla is comin for you! Can’t get over how analytical and smart you are- I’m wowed!
Kayla that Wayward Children cover is FANSTASTIC OMG!!
You are too good at everything I swear, these covers are better than most of the professionally done ones! However, I was absolutely YELLING for you to make the And in 'Sulfur And Sin' into an ampersand LOL
I actually prefer your covers for pretty much all of these! The publishers should hit you up for some designs as you're insanely good at this. I loved this video, would love for this to become a series!
This is the BEST video concept ever. I am obsessed with it!
Love love love these videos! And I like having the reveals, when timing makes it possible. Thanks for such a fun and creative video!!!
"gentleman demon...i hate that, that's almost as bad as mister impossible" girl when i tell you i HONKED
I thought TH-cam broke and I was special getting to watch this early 😂
But hey now I know exactly what I'm going to watch when I eat dinner tonight 😚
33:38 Finley Donovan Rolls The Dice will be out March 2024…will be Yellow AND she is driving a car with year down!
I love your creativity! I'm glad you waited until all the covers were revealed to post your reactions. Your reactions and seeing your versions side by side with the actual covers is the best part of the video, in my opinion. I will say that even though you went with smoke for Hell Bent instead of a rabbit (how could you have known?)... you really weren't too far off!

I love how invested you are. You really showed us the statistics. What to expect, why them. I just love this.
This video is so amazing -- your covers are so brilliant Kayla!
Your covers of Finlay were actually much better than the official. Also yellow is YOUR colour 😍
Hey bestie! Looove this series. Here's some ideas for next time:
1. Donut Fall in Love by Adiba Jaigirdar (2023 release)
2. Natural Disasters by Ashley Winstead (2023 release)
3. Midnight Is the Darkest Hour by Ashley Winstead (2023 release)
4. Self-Made Boys: A Great Gatsby Remix by Anna-Marie McLemore (2022 release)
I just added all of these to my tbr 😂
Okay but you are SOOOO good at cover design & illustrator
I love this way of uploading, because otherwise I probably never see the final cover
I really like the covers being revealed in the same video! That was so much fun to watch!!
I love these videos, they're so much fun! Watching your thought process designing the covers is so fascinating. I definitely love having the actual cover reveals at the end of the video so we can see them all in the same video, as long as they come out in a fairly timely fashion.
LOVE the creative brainstorming!
This was so much fun to watch and I think you were so close on all of them!! Definitely think you should wait until the covers are revealed!
Watching this WAY after it was posted and realized you nailed the following Finlay Donovan book for Rolls the Dice.
these types of videos are my favorite, i love seeing your guesses!! it’s so fun
I like this format, where we get to see your reaction to the actual covers ☺
Omg your Finlay Donovan cover is amazing 😍😍😍
I cant believe u also predicted the title !!!!
I think you were pretty successful this round. The Finlay cover was creepily similar. Although, it is driving me crazy that 'Jumps' is a different color than 'the gun'!
Same! I was looking for someone saying the same thing as validation of my annoyance haha
This is probably my new favorite series of yours 😍😍 also there was a very well placed ad after the gasping reaction to Leigh Bardugo’s cover so kudos if that was intentional 😆
Love this video concept! 😍😍 I love watching you think through your ideas on what it could look like.
Kayla is amazing at doing these it’s so cool to see.
I need that cover of The Wayward Children to be the real one! BEAUTIFUL!
This is my favourite series of all time! I love the thought process behind guessing the covers. I prefer the current format where your reaction to the cover reveal is in the video 😊
"Finley Donovan takes a shot"? Love this video concept :) loved watching you design, Kayla!!
I love this series. It may be my favorite! And I like the reveal in the video
this series brings me so much joy. love seeing your process and also your reactions to seeing the reveals!

Absolutely in love with your Sulfur and sin Cover and Titel!!! I want that as the third book cover
Also, I like having the final reveal in the video!! It’s fun seeing your thoughts on how close/ off your theories were!
I absolutely love those videos! ❤️ What great covers, both your covers and the originals. 😍 I liked that you waited until all the covers were out. 😊
These videos are so fun! I think positing it after the covers are revealed is perfect, its fun seeing your reaction and the comparisons
Wow Kayla🤯 I squealed seeing Finlay Donovan's title and cover!! You're a genius
You are so freakin talented, as a graphic design major this makes me excited to get to learn how to use more editing software. Alsooooo super random but you’re hair game is amazingggg u make me want to get a baleaige ombreeee
What a marketing mastermind! Someone needs to pay you for the amount of work you’ve put in, especially on the Seanan McGuire. That was a work of art… I barely know how to work the paint app lol

omfg i love your finlay cover more than the original actually 😭😭😭
I genuinely think this might be my favourite series you've ever done - which is a big call because I love all your videos. I like that I get the reveal in the same video so it's worth the wait for sure!
I LOVE these videos! I love watching your creative process. I also really like seeing the reveals in the video (even if it delays the video)
I prefer when these are posted after the covers are revealed, it’s so much more satisfying!
Aaaa I'm so happy you made another one! I loved the first video you did predicting book covers, it was so fun and interesting!
This was such a fun video! I was so sucked into this video, and now I need to read all these series. Thank you!
I just love when you do these videos, Kayla! So creative! 🖤
Also thank you for introducing me to some new books with the ones you put up for comparisons.
Can't wait for the next one!
omg!!! i’m so happy you made another one of these videos 🙏🏻🥰😍 they are so much fun to watch ♥️ loved it!!!
These are so insanely entertaining!! & You have to give yourself so much more props. You nail some of these 🤯
These are by far my all time favourite videos to watch!! Your hardwork and creativity is just absolutely amazing!
This was such a fun video, and you did a great job with the covers. Even if they didn't match exactly what the reveals turned out to be, your covers looked like they could've legitimately been real books. I love your talent and attention to detail.
And I like the idea of you waiting for all of the covers to be revealed to post the video like you did rather not waiting like you were going to. I think it just fills out the video and makes it more fun even if we have to wait longer for it.
Kayla, you are an absolute creative genius and should totally be paid by publishers to design book covers professionally!!
Not gonna lie there are times I go months without watching your videos but I can't deny your creativity. All it takes is me clicking on 1 video and I'm down the rabbit hole that is your video catalog. Your ideas are so original and you're really talented and put so much into your ideas/videos. I applaud you 👏. Shout out to you and your 🧠 😀😃😉
The BEST vlog ever!!!!! Love it just the way it is💕
