I had to watch that intro 3 times!!!! LOLOL!!! If you've seen American Hustle, your dancing reminded me of JLaw's in the film, it's hilarious! Book buying... it's a disease! That Night Circus hardcover is gorgeous!!
Christine, you always brighten my day. And when you dropped Vicious I literally yelled at my computer, "NOOOOO!" because I was both scared for the book and just scared in general because it made a really sudden, loud noise. I need so many of those books. Like, you don't even know. **glances at wallet**
This was freaking awesome.. You got so many books that I'm excited for you to read! I just know you'll live The Cardturner and The Night Circus! I remember reading Holes, and I remember loving Holes, but I freaking don't remember what it's about AT ALL. I need to rebyt it too!
I bought The Cardturner a little while ago for no other reason other than it was a $2 hardcover book! I can't wait to read it though :D Have you read I Am the Messenger? That involved playing cards... to some extent ;)
2 DOLLARS!! OH MY GOSH, IT'S SO EXPENSIVE ONLINE! DAT WAS A STEAL AN AWESOME STEAL / No i havent read i am the messenger! I SHALL GO STALK IT AND AD TO TBR.
HOLES! I loved that book in school too! ...wait.. I don't think I own it either. What the heck?! I had heard about small steps too and I got all excited only to be disappointed that it wasn't really a sequel exactly... I'm excited for control! I've got a copy holding for me at the library! So many wonderful books!
The Read-a-long hasn't even happened and I know this is gonna be so much fun!!! I'm definitely taking part! AND I think this should be a monthly thingy.
I loved that intro!!!!! You need to do that every time you have a book talk, it's awesome!!! You got so many books, I know I understand, no matter how many books I have I always end up buying more
I absolutely love the card turner. It is a great book. i read it like last year in the 7th grade and it was amazing, to me. it is about a kid who is supposed to help his, i think, grandfather , who is blind, and he handles his cards when he plays bridge.
My brother read the Cardturner, now he says its his favorite book of all time (and he's pretty hard to impress) so I think you'll love it, I'm gonna read it too...when I get to the time.
LOVE Holes! I need to read the companion novel, I still remember his part of the song from the movie..."A-R-M-PI-to the T, what is that you're smelling? Dog that's me. I don't take showers and I don't brush my teeth, all I do is dig holes, eat, and sleep". Lol I was obsessed
If you love cards (and card-related books), try reading "I am the Messenger" by Markus Zusak...same guy who wrote The Book Thief. Also, a good YA book about weird photography - "In The Shadow of Blackbirds" by Cat Winters. Talks a lot about spirit photography (which was a real, popular thing in the late 19th and early 20th centuries).
My shadow hunter name is Crystal Wright! Which is even more awesome because I'm a pilot and it matches the Wright Brothers! Oh and please keep doing book hauls!
I bought so many books for the holiday season, I bought the harry potter (hardcover) box set, and the first two books in: The Raven Cycle, the Anna Dressed in Blood series, and the Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy! I actually just got a notification that my Harry Potter books arrived at my house today! Super excited to unbox them...maybe I'll make a book haul video although I'm only limited to iMovie for the time being :P
Haha I love how you always drop a book in practically every video! And some of those I want to read now! I am hoping to get Control by this weekend so I can join. The cover is just awesome! I think between you and Jesse and everyone having all these bookhauls, I'm going to have to get a few more shelves. Two bookshelves holding about 600 books each it's getting kinda dangerous.
So first, I love the color of your wall in the background. Second, you have great taste in books. I love Louis Sachar and read his books in 4th grade. I loved the Wayside series and Holes. I actually just watched the movie last night. :)
Love watching your book hauls you make them look so much fun. Looked up Control in my library and they don't have it. Amazon has it but it's a bit expensive
So right after she talked about Holes, I just spent 2 hours watching the movie LOL I remember watching that movie in school, 6 years ago omg It was da beeeest
Ahhhh what a great haul!! I immediately put the Shadowhunter Codex on my wishlist.. I kinda knew it existed at the back of my head but I never thought about buying it. But it looks beautiful and sounds really cool. AND MY COPY OF HOLLOW CITY HOPEFULLY ARRIVES TODAY!
I learned poker in 4th or 5th grade, and I tried to get my friends to play it in 6th and 7th grade summer schools, but some kid got mad he lost $20 the summer before and so we weren't allowed to play it anymore. So my favorite card game became Egyptian lol So dorky , but whatevs :D
I have a book buying problem, too. I had to get a book for school, and that prompted me to buy 5 more books for myself... It's terrible. Haha "It's so naked underneath the cover!" Great haul, Christine! Yet another fantastic video!
holes was one of my school books we had to read in like year 8 or 9! was actually a really great book, one of the best we had to read for school! great haul, now I want to go book shopping! I admit I also have a problem!
protip for finding certain book covers you want: go on goodreads and look up the book with the cover you want, then copy and paste the isbn of the book with the cover you want into google or amazon
I'm reading Vicious right now! It's pretty good. I like the writing. Sci-fi isn't my normal genre though so it's taking me a longer time to read than usual, because the content is dense and it's hard to digest. The Codex is great though, I'm about halfway through. You'd think a fictional textbook would be boring but it's actually interesting, and the handwritten notes keep is humorous.
I had to watch that intro 3 times!!!! LOLOL!!! If you've seen American Hustle, your dancing reminded me of JLaw's in the film, it's hilarious! Book buying... it's a disease! That Night Circus hardcover is gorgeous!!
XD / YES OMG I LOVED THAT PART SO MUCH
GOD DANG IT CHRISTINE YOU GIVE ME A HEART ATTACK EACH TIME YOU STACK UP YOUR BOOKS BECAUSE I KNOW THEY'RE GOING TO FALL
Christine, you always brighten my day. And when you dropped Vicious I literally yelled at my computer, "NOOOOO!" because I was both scared for the book and just scared in general because it made a really sudden, loud noise.
I need so many of those books. Like, you don't even know. **glances at wallet**
Looking back at this now yeas later, I'm like "The origins of Booksplosion"
This was freaking awesome.. You got so many books that I'm excited for you to read! I just know you'll live The Cardturner and The Night Circus!
I remember reading Holes, and I remember loving Holes, but I freaking don't remember what it's about AT ALL. I need to rebyt it too!
THANKS LADY!! // LOL ARIEL your comments are always so pristine and typo free - THIS MUST HAVE BEEN ON THE NEW IPHONE
PLEASE DO A VIDEO ON HOW TO ORGANIZE A BOOKSHELF WITH A LOT OF BOOKS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I bought The Cardturner a little while ago for no other reason other than it was a $2 hardcover book! I can't wait to read it though :D
Have you read I Am the Messenger? That involved playing cards... to some extent ;)
2 DOLLARS!! OH MY GOSH, IT'S SO EXPENSIVE ONLINE! DAT WAS A STEAL AN AWESOME STEAL / No i havent read i am the messenger! I SHALL GO STALK IT AND AD TO TBR.
***** You should also get Book Thief. It is AWESOME!!!
***** idk if you've already read it but a awesome book is The Book Thief. ;)

I just love when you do Book Hauls. You seem always so excited about every book and it kinda makes me excited as well. I WANT THEM ALL NOW
I love the fact that you can make a simple video about books become something so interesting and funny at the same time!!
oh my god i love that you're posting book hauls. LOVE IT
seeing this in my subscription box on this cold, gloomy morning BRIGHTENED MY DAY
Best part: "Alex 'Pifelter' in painting form" lol.
I always struggle when trying to say Pettyfer too.
I read Small Steps when I was younger, and I HAD NO IDEA THAT IT WAS A COMPANION NOVEL. I AM SO HAPPY NOW. THANK YOU CHRISTINE
LOL! I love your videos. Are you just naturally high energy or do you drink that much coffee? ha!
I love that you're posting book haul videos now. I grew up playing cards too and I really want to get Vicious. :)
Holes is actually one of my fave books when i was younger. I never trought about rereading it in english, but now it seems like an awsome idea :-)
You r sooooo going to love Night Circus. I'm so glad you have it!
The Read-a-long hasn't even happened and I know this is gonna be so much fun!!!
I'm definitely taking part! AND I think this should be a monthly thingy.
I loved that intro!!!!! You need to do that every time you have a book talk, it's awesome!!! You got so many books, I know I understand, no matter how many books I have I always end up buying more
Yes you must read the card turner! It's amazing!!!!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THAT BOOK!

True af

I absolutely love the card turner. It is a great book. i read it like last year in the 7th grade and it was amazing, to me. it is about a kid who is supposed to help his, i think, grandfather , who is blind, and he handles his cards when he plays bridge.
I love your videos because we have very similar taste in books. All the books you suggest I've either already read it or plan too.
My brother read the Cardturner, now he says its his favorite book of all time (and he's pretty hard to impress) so I think you'll love it, I'm gonna read it too...when I get to the time.
Ahhh yess somebody is talking about the the book holes,i fell in love with the book in 1 day and finished it in 2 days
SOOOO GOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDD
LOVE Holes! I need to read the companion novel, I still remember his part of the song from the movie..."A-R-M-PI-to the T, what is that you're smelling? Dog that's me. I don't take showers and I don't brush my teeth, all I do is dig holes, eat, and sleep". Lol I was obsessed
Holes was one of my childhood favs! Ohh i want the night circus! just finished halllow city! loved it!
If you love cards (and card-related books), try reading "I am the Messenger" by Markus Zusak...same guy who wrote The Book Thief. Also, a good YA book about weird photography - "In The Shadow of Blackbirds" by Cat Winters. Talks a lot about spirit photography (which was a real, popular thing in the late 19th and early 20th centuries).
I feel you! Im always getting books when I haven't even read my other books!
I loved Holes so much! The film is pretty awesome too!
Shadowhunter's Codex is such a fun read!
The Night Circus is so good! You will love it! Thnx for the book enthusiasm! You are hilarious!

I've read Small Steps before, gotta reread that. I have a hardcover and the jacket has footprint-shaped holes across it and it's great
Awesome book haul.
Once you do a book haul, you never go back...

I want my books to be hardcovers... but they are soooo expensive :(
the paperbacks in my country (USA) are 15$
Like wtf
IIHH! I love the Shadow Hunter Codex! It is so fun! I love the comments in the book! It is good for TMI and TID withdrawal. :D
Love watching your book hauls you make them look so much fun. Looked up Control in my library and they don't have it. Amazon has it but it's a bit expensive
The Night Circus was AWESOME I LOVED IT!
Great haul. Vicious is so amazing! You won't be disappointed. I have the paperback of The Night Circus but now i'm wishing I had the hardback.
Loved this book haul! So picking up night circus!!
This is an awesome book haul!! Love it!! Very good reads.
THE NIGHT CIRCUS IS FANTAAAAAASTIC OH MY GOD
You're such a convincing person! Now I feel like I need to read Holes and The Secret Life of Bees even though I never had an interest in them before!
So right after she talked about Holes, I just spent 2 hours watching the movie LOL
I remember watching that movie in school, 6 years ago omg
It was da beeeest
You hands down have the best book hauls
I will never get over the way you pronounce Alex Pettyfer's last name. X'D
Not in this one right?
No, it's here. At 9:58. I laugh out loud every single time.
She said Alex Pettyfer??? I heared "Alex Pevelter" or something!
Ahhhh what a great haul!! I immediately put the Shadowhunter Codex on my wishlist.. I kinda knew it existed at the back of my head but I never thought about buying it. But it looks beautiful and sounds really cool. AND MY COPY OF HOLLOW CITY HOPEFULLY ARRIVES TODAY!
The night circus is a beautiful book. It'll make a beautiful movie if ever attempted
'The Night Circus' is the definition of literary art.
As a fellow non-fetus circa 1999, I must thank you for helping to make Louis Sachar a thing again. Mad props.
The Night Circus is amazing. Just amazing!
I think the monthly read along is a good idea!! :)
If you put all the books from just about 3 book hauls of Christine, that's pretty much my entire book collection
"Link in the doo-blee-doo?" Nerdfighter?
I had to read holes for school, ahhh good memories. I also had to watch the movie. You totally reminded me of it. Great haul :)
when you said erin morgenstern i had to pause the video and have a little fangirl moment iff you know what i mean...
I learned poker in 4th or 5th grade, and I tried to get my friends to play it in 6th and 7th grade summer schools, but some kid got mad he lost $20 the summer before and so we weren't allowed to play it anymore. So my favorite card game became Egyptian lol So dorky , but whatevs :D
Thanks for the read a long group i really like this idea
I have a book buying problem, too. I had to get a book for school, and that prompted me to buy 5 more books for myself... It's terrible.
Haha "It's so naked underneath the cover!"
Great haul, Christine! Yet another fantastic video!
it's a legit addiction! XD / Thank you!!
I literally just finished night of cake and puppets and it was amazing!!! I love Zuzana and Mik!!
holes was one of my school books we had to read in like year 8 or 9! was actually a really great book, one of the best we had to read for school! great haul, now I want to go book shopping! I admit I also have a problem!
I'm so excited for you to read The Night Circus! It's soooooo good!!!!!
protip for finding certain book covers you want: go on goodreads and look up the book with the cover you want, then copy and paste the isbn of the book with the cover you want into google or amazon
I barely noticed the Allegiant poster and I realized that the book came out on my birthday XP
omg!!! the night circus!! i love that book so much!!!
Fucking read, fall in love, and never forget The Night Circus!!!! I love it so much
I loved Holes and Small Steps! =) And I may need to get Control for the read along even though I have been buying way too many books lately.
I LOVE YOU SOOOOO MUCH. your personality is amazing
The Night Circus is such a lovely book! You'll love it :)
I'm reading Vicious right now! It's pretty good. I like the writing. Sci-fi isn't my normal genre though so it's taking me a longer time to read than usual, because the content is dense and it's hard to digest. The Codex is great though, I'm about halfway through. You'd think a fictional textbook would be boring but it's actually interesting, and the handwritten notes keep is humorous.
I loved Holes!!!! It was my first book love too!! Morgernstern? i just bought the shadowhunter codex.
that opening made my day haha you r so funny.
The Night Circus is amazing =)
I just found my old middle school copy of Secret Life of Bees. It is going to get put to the top of my TBR.
