The Founders Trilogy by Robert Jackson Bennett may fit that.. if you haven't read them yet. A mild sapphic romance/relationship. I'm not a Romance reader at all but it was tolerable to me 😊
The Serpent and the Wings of Night duology were some of the best books I read this year! Have a happy and healthy holiday season and New Year, and thanks for all the fun content this year! 🎉 😊
You're the reason I picked up Project Hail Mary, and I gave it 5 stars too! SO good. 💛 I love seeing people prioritizing health and taking breaks! So important. And I hope you're feeling better, glad everything is okay. ❤ I would love to see you review your 23 Books to Read in 2023 video!!
Thank you for such amazing content this year! I have been learking this last year watching your videos when I can! I have decided to take my reading in a different direction going into 2024 and I want to read more fantasy romance next year! I have gotten multiple recommendations from your channel and I can't wait to see what books work for me in 2024!
Yassss my tbr is ready! Edit: so glad you're on the mend! Happy holidays to you! I can't wait for your tier ranking 😁 My best books were Where the Crawdads Sing, both CCs, Empire of Storms and Tower of Dawn, and SATWON 😁
Woo - excited to pick some of these up! Some of my tops reads of 2023 were Happy Place, A Tempest at Sea, The Last Tale of the Flower Bride, and Flawless ❤ I hope you had a good Christmas and feel better soon!
I'm starting warbreaker right now and I'm excited to see where the story goes! Some of my top reads this year are house of earth and blood, daughter of no worlds, and the entire binding 13 series! I can't wait to read more of Carissa Broadbent's books and fear the flames too!
As someone who is in the middle of reading Project Hail Mary, it was really exciting to hear it’s your top fave of the year! I’m excited to see where the story goes
Congratulations on 20K 🎉 I'd love to see you react to your 23 books in 2023 video. Have a Merry Christmas and happy new year Rachel! Thank you for all the content you put up ❤
It goes without saying that KOA was my best book of the year, closely followed by my Harry Potter reread!! So much nostalgia & cosy (yet emotionally taxing) vibes 🥹 Thank you for consistently putting out incredible content this year, you’ve been a really steady part of my year & I’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching your videos & getting incredible reccomendations from you. I hope you have the best, relaxing, joyful holidays, you really deserve it! and I can’t wait to see everything you do in 2024 🥹🤍
tyy for all the amazing recs u gave me this year💖 my fav books were def saving and redeeming 6 by Chloe Walsh and then house of earth and blood and falling kingdoms🥰 praying u feel better soon🫶🏻
Thanks for your videos this year and finishing it with your top 10. My top 3 in no order would be Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir, loved it so much. I read the final 6 page chapter multiple times. I loved Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin so much. Loved Sadie, Sam, and Marx plus the others. Loved Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree. Great change of pace. Great characters, led by Viv! I think a video with you recapping your 23 in 23 is a great idea.
I would love to see your 23 books in 2023 reaction video. I don’t really have a favorite book, but I do have some favorite series. ACOTAR series, The Stay A Spell series, The Eden’s series, The Calamity Montana Series. They were all standouts for me!
I loved Yellowface too! I need to read the Green Bone saga-you’ve convinced me! Oh and Project Hail Mary too. I want the audio for that!! Love your videos Rachel. Merry Christmas!
I’m so happy you loved PHM as much as I did. Absolutely my favorite book I read this year, perhaps tied with Rhythm of War. I wish I could read it for the first time again.
My favorite book of the year was Kingdom of Ash! I actually rated it 4.5 stars initially but this was my first time reading the series and I really couldn't stop thinking about it all year. It was the first time I read a series and immediately wanted to start it over. Wishing you the best for 2024!
Hail mary is one of my favourite books of all time, I listened to it because i bought it a couple of months ago and forgot about it, but when i had a nasty little eye infection out of pure stupidity the only thing I could do was listen to something so i just randomly picked this book out of pure boredom and sometimes i think the eye infection was one of the best things ever in my life because without it I probably would still be in my reading slump ❤
I read Project Hail Mary and the Green Bone saga on your recommendation and both are in my top 5 of the year! Project Hail Mary is tied for #1. I think about Rocky and Grace daily!
Wonder book of the year!!!! I know that I have said that to you but he is amazing. All of his books are amazing. I need to get the physical book so I can annotate it. I have audiobook it so many times.
My top three reads of 2023. The Only One Left by Riley Sager Fear the Flames by Olivia Rose Darling Heavenly Bodies by Imani Erriu Absolutely loved these!!
I didn't read a lot in 2023 - 2024 is going to be my year of reading lol but here's my top 3: 1.Dracula 2.Tenant of Wildfell Hall 3.Redeeming Love I'm so sorry to hear that you haven't been completely well. Prayers!
picking a top 3 is so difficult, so i'll pick 3 in no particular order: the second half of the throne of glass series, read for the first time 💙blood mercy by vela roth and fear the flames (the ashes and the star cursed king too, i'm picking 4, fine)
I think my top books of the year are the Crowns of Nyaxia Duology, Legends of Thezmarr series, Warbreaker Nettle & Bone, Magnolia Parks Universe, and all time top has got to be Plated Prisoner series!!
top 3 yes very solidified i feel this in my soul the anticipation is killing me eek i know ur #1 but i don’t know the other two 👀 OOP hehe carissa i should have known i’m stilly goose
Hope we can do a collab one day. Hope a book convention can be done one day so us book enthusiasts and book lovers can all meet up and talk books all day! Stay well and God Bless You. 😀🥰😍🤩😇
I discovered karin slaughter this year n all her stand alones have been the best books of the year for me. false witness wrecked me. I cried for a solid 30 minutes after finishing it.

New subscriber! Love your channel :) Here’s mine (NOT IN ORDER 😂) Impossible Creatures - Katherine Rundell Legends and Lattes - Travis Baldree I’m Glad My Mom Died - Jeanette McCurdy
How did you read that many books? Do you sit & physically read w/ no audio the traditional way, do you listen to only high speed audio books & no reading, do you listen on high speed while following the book? Lol.
I love that you enjoyed book 2 in crowns of nyaxia! I loved it so much/ more than book 1, which is an unpopular take. Enjoy your holiday and feel better. 🫶🏽❤️
I want to read more fantasy where the romance is a subplot and not the main theme. It’s killing me 😭 something like the mask of mirrors
