    Your summerween reading list sparked my reading needs again. I’ve done so well this year, but I slowed down as the weather got hot. Thanks to the cute spooky middle grades, I’ve hopped right back in.

    I love that you decided to share your NYC footage with a themed reading vlog! I would recommend checking out Amy Poeppel's books - all are set in or near NYC and have family dynamics, flawed characters, humor and although there are rich people problems she pairs them with folks who are less economically privileged. Favorite bookstore is Wild Rumpus in Minneapolis - childrens to YA books and they have cats and chickens and other such animals hanging out!🦊🍎

    ❤️📚❤️...I read Pineapple Street from my public library on your recommendation, loved it. After, I found a BTM copy at our thrift store (like new) and snatched it up! 🍎

  • @KristinKravesBooks
    @KristinKravesBooks ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I bought The Nest when it came out because of the cover and really struggled with it. I also didn't love the characters! I have been avoiding Pineapple Street because it definitely gave me similar vibes, so good to know you connected to that one more.

    • @alexandraroselyn

    Vromans in LA is my absolute favorite bookstore. It has a barnes and noble feel but almost more quaint, and less commercial. It just feels very special there.

  • @KatieColson
    @KatieColson ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I totally agree about One For My Enemy. It was originally a short story but she added like 200 or so pages. It should’ve just been published in it’s shorter form to be honest

    @tiffanyrich6652 ปีที่แล้ว

    🍎, I picked up One for my Enemy and Pineapple Street a few months ago. One for my Enemy started out promising. I got a little over halfway and the wheels came off the story. I flipped back through to see if maybe it was bound wrong. Unfortunately the later half of the book is the same as the beginning. In the end I donated the book to the library. Still haven’t started Pineapple Street. Anyway have a great weekend.

  • @lizziemg3486
    @lizziemg3486 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    A Tree Grows in Brooklyn would be a 4-5 stars; classic character development and just what has the great writing to appreciate. Please let us know what you think of it.

    My most favourite bookshop back in NZ (before I moved to Canada) was called the Hard to Find but Worth the Effort Bookshop. It was a combination of 2nd hand books and Rare Books Shop and I LOVED it. I no longer buy physical books here in Canada. My eyes are not so good so I buy E-books now. My favourite E-book bookshop is KOBO!!! 🍏🍎 ♥

    🍎 I have a few favorite bookstores: The Last Bookstore (LA) , Joseph-Beth Booksellers (Cincinnati, Ohio), and The Book Mill (Montague, MA.) The Book Mill’s slogan is “Books You Don’t Need in a Place You Can’t Find!” It’s indie bookstore that sells used books. The ambience is incredible and I know you’d love it! You should come here to Massachusetts sometime in the Fall! The fall foliage is breathtaking, the vibes are peak New England, it’s like all of your dark academia dreams come true! 💜

  • @Lillyjoy
    @Lillyjoy ปีที่แล้ว

    I hope you can meet up with your friends again soon, it looked so fun! I loved One For My Enemy but I did feel the same way as you about like specifically Sasha and Lev, I thought they were going to be in love, not at all like how they actually were when they were first getting together. I actually loved the other romance a lot more and wish the whole thing was just about them and not even about Sasha and Lev 😂 I can definitely understand your complaints. 🍎

    Love the video, but have to point out that saying "New York City or Brooklyn" isn't quite right. Brooklyn is one of the five boroughs of New York City, so it is part of NYC. I think you might mean "Manhattan or Brooklyn". Just had to pass along that little knowledge nugget. I'm glad you enjoyed your visit!!

    • @alexandraroselyn
      @alexandraroselyn  ปีที่แล้ว

      Omg thank you so much for saying this! I knew about the different boroughs and I also knew there was a distinction between Manhattan and Brooklyn, but I wasn’t sure if I should always say Manhattan and Brooklyn or NYC and Brooklyn! But I’ll remember this I’m so glad you let me know!! Thank you!😊❤️❤️❤️
