A half hour long unhaul from fricking ELLEN?! Sign me up
hehehe love u!!!!
You know I was never into unhaul videos until I started watching yours. They're just top-tier for me. I could literally sit and hear you talk for HOURS!
here's a video idea: go on a book shopping spree where your goal is to replace the books you didn't like but have very pretty covers with books that have the same cover vibes that you potentially could love
Yesss I have been waiting for this video!
Honestly, the "Because they're cute so I am going to keep them" is the only reason why I have kept Once Upon a Broken heart!
literally!! glad it’s not just me🤣
Omg I opened youtube after a super long day, I'm absolutely dying it is so hot where i live, just to find this!! Thank you so much for making my day better!!
Girl, i need an 2 hour video from you where you just talk and talk and read and do something about and with books. You are so therapeutic to watch
This unhaul is amazing! Your logic is sound and totally agree.. you may have veered me away from some books you really disliked! Thanks for being a gem!
I have DNFd so many Tessa Bailey books. I’ve come to the fact that I am also not a Tessa Bailey girl. I tried though. It happened once summer is the only book by her I like.
definitely have to agree!! I’ve read about 9-10 of her books so far and the only one I can say I genuinely LOVED was “it happened one summer” the rest have just fell flat or simply weren’t for me 😅
literally!! i think i have 2/3 books by her that i adored an the rest have gone so downhill for me!!
The queen has uploaded 🥰💕🎀
omggg ellen luvvvv your vidssss u inspire me to read and i've loved most of the books you've recommended and your vids always make me feel comfortable and just happy how there are ppl who enjoy the books i love
Omg Sara and Ellen ahhhhhh I’m literally so happy
These are my favourite kind of videos!
Good morning to you too, Ellen! It's always a nice day to watch your video :D
I normally hate watching unhauls but your ones are therapeutic
I dont mind unhauls but sometimes when someone gets rid of a book and I liked it or loved it ill start to wonder if I do like it so I question my choice on it if that makes sense but like I said I don't mind unhauls lol love your channel and I'd never be mad or upset at anyone for their choices....you're the best
Getting home from work to an Ellen vid, definitely just made the day a whole lot better!!
🥹🤍
hello ellen!! ty for providing me with background noise as i study for my exam ❤️
good luck!!
Manifesting the strength of your door hook to get me through the rest of the week ❤ love unhauls we all buy hyped up books or books we think we’ll like but just like life you can’t know what’s good or not
this made me giggle SO MUCH HAHAHHA my poor door hook
The Roommate was my first 5 star of the year!!! So glad someone is giving it the love it deserves
it’s so so good isn’t it!!🥰
Love a good unhaul video, I'm currently reading all rhodes lead here ❤
if you have time, if there are some books you're unsure about unhauling I recommend rereading and then deciding!
Since you were saying how you probably won't be able to buy another bookshelf where you currently live, it seems like you have the billy bookshelf which you can buy an individual shelf or bookshelf extension to add to your current bookshelf if you ever wanted.
Hey Ellen, it's Kristin 🥰 Its been a hot minute but I'm so happy to be back watching your vlogs. As always, you're such a vibe to watch and I've missed you. Definitely my comfort bookish girlie 🧡✨
omg hey Kristin!! i hope you’re doing well!!🥰
@@bookswithellen Hey Ellen, Im well thank you. I hope you're well 💕🥰
The thumbnail for this is insane!!!!
I heard that it can be easier to declutter - "unhaul" - when you start with your total yesses. This is my favourite declutter method
I LOVE Next of Kin by Hannah Bonam-Young, she's become one of my favorite and insta-buy authors.
I like how you said in the beginning how you would unhaul books you don't like, but still keep some of them. Don't worry, I do the same exact thing until I really don't have any space left in my shelves xD
God !!!! the way I enjoy books unhaul more than hauls 😂😂😂😂 ❤❤❤
same they’re SO satisfying!!
you can read the bergman series out of order! i read always only you first which is number 2 and it’s one of my favourite books and then if only you which is number 7 and it’s also one of my favourite books
amazing thank you for letting me know!!!
i need to get back to this video, to write down the books I'm interested in
I am sohappy that I am a kindle girlie and don't have to unhaul stuff XD
i loved crossed by Emily McIntire so much!! you should really read it and im so glag you kept it
omg that makes me so excited !!
omg looOveee
Love this video
🥰🥰
Have you thought of selling your unhauled books on Vinted? Some of us here in the UK would love to grab those from you! I know I would! ❤
i used to but i always found it too much work🤣 maybe if there are certain books i know you guys would love i could start!
I have read rhythm chord and malykhin and i enjoyed it, gave it five stars, it was an easy read, but there are some weird bits, i won't say to much otherwise it's a spoiler but there is a scene where i genuinely wanted to dnf, but it makes for it, don't read it if you're looking for something intricate or you want a slow burn like other Mariana Zapata books, it's just a quick and easy read
If you want to give T Kingfisher another go, you might like her fantasy books better. I recommend Swordheart. It's super sweet and romantic and only a bit weird 😂❤
i have a copy of it and i’m SO excited for it!! have heard such great things!!
Yes! I loved this!
You should definitely read Into the Drowning Deep. Mira Grant is Seanan McGuires horror pen name 🙌
i’m so much more excited to read it now that i know it’s her!!
Ah I love LJ Shen! Would you be willing to sell the copy of the kiss thief ❤
Great video! I love watching your content 🫶🏼
I looooooved the Roommate and I never see anyone talk about it either!
I KNOWW!!! always boggles my little brain that it doesn’t receive more love, adored that book so much
Dune terriefies me too , everytime I see the book on my shelf it's like it's mocking me ...there is no way I'm gonna read it this year though . It is so dissapointing when you love a bookcover but hate the book ...
❤❤❤
Hi!!! just letting you know you are missing the last book in the addicted series it's called some kind of perfect not sure if you knew. I hope you enjoy the series💞 I love your videos!!
yes i need to get my hands on it!!🤍
Our taste in fantasy books is so drastically different 😭
🤣 what are some of your faves?
@@bookswithellen once upon a broken heart lol (I do afore six of crows though)
Watching this made me feel lighter but they’re not even my books 😅
as someone who disliked hooked and dnf'd twisted, you might actually like the rest of the never after series! scarred and wretched were my personal favs! crossed is a little more unhinged and i liked it, but i can see how others didn't! it gave me priest vibes but darker 🙂
i’ve heard similar things!! defo happy that i hung onto them🤍🥰
Maybe a video of finishing series that you'll unhaul. Not the ones that you'll continue with, but the series you aren't invested in like the EMcI and LT ones (I used the initials since I'm too lazy to look up their names). And in that same video, if you really don't like it, you can DNF it after 100 pages or so of reading it. That way, you can unhaul the series and not keep them (if you do have another unhaul video after you unhauled the series, you can just mention them). Gives you more room in your bookshelves and you won't have to keep books that don't bring joy to your life.
such a good idea thank you!!
Just confirming that yes, Mira Grant is another pseudonym for Seanan McGuire to write scifi and horror books.
amazing thank you!!!
has she read dance of thieves? i think she’d really like it
i haven’t yet!!
Yes to Seanan McGuire being Mira Grant. I believe she uses the pseudonym for writing horror.
amazing thank you so much for letting me know!!!
Random boo rec: Mortal Queen by Victoria McCombs
I LOVE Mariana Zapata, but Rhythm Chord & Malykhin is just BAD; I had to get the audiobook to get through it lol. I canNOT believe she wrote it *after* Kulti (which is one of my fav books _ever_ !!)
omg i’m so glad i didn’t give it a go then😅 crazy that it was written after Kulti when i know so many people adore that one!!
just one question but have u read or want to read haunting adeline i just wanted to know cuz i live ur vids
yes i have!! can’t say i was a fan🥲
Malice by Heather Walter is a sapphic fantasy sleeping beauty retelling duology I think you’d enjoy! Both were five stars for me 💜I’m going on holiday in a few weeks and I’m planning on reading seven year slip and flawless, I hope I like them as much as you do hahah 🩷
Why keep books you don’t love and only keep for the cover.. please unhaul the books you don’t love because it’s just will be unhauld the next time.
as i said in the video, it’s my books and my money, so i feel i should be able to keep what i want😊 it doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme of things 🤍
