I hope you don’t mind that I reused the intro! It just explains my challenge so well 💖
Also, I misspoke. Lincoln is a quadriplegic.
By “happily ever after” I did not mean that someone who is a quadriplegic isn’t or cannot be happy. Lincoln literally spends the entire book trying to unalive himself because how unhappy he is. He is bed ridden, can’t sit in a wheelchair or even sit up. What I was curious to was to if he can improve enough to be able to find his happy again and go out to the crime scenes. Even if it’s being able to get around in a wheel chair, or something of the sort. I did not mean it by walking is the only way to find a happily ever after.
The intro is too good to only use once! Plus it's like a mini shelf tour
I think the intro is great!
It’s such a good intro!
The intro is just like in a series, those also have the same every episode! I think it's great! Makes me excited for a new episode haha
The intro is great. I'd keep it!
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who goes "I'm going to read this book that I own!" and then immediately downloads the audiobook and doesn't touch the physical copy
lol a lot of us do it. Or we read the ebook and love it so we buy the trophy to put on our shelves. I also watch movies on Netflix when I have the DVD copies. Same thing to me 😂
I read so many manga online and buy my favs for the shelf xD
@@BethMorvant To be fair about buying DVDs and streaming it, not everything is on streaming sites or they disappear. That won't happen with DVDs
Something about unhauling is so satisfying to me. I just love it when I realise that a book wasn’t for me, so I can pass it onto someone else that might have a better time than me (I usually give them to friends that are interested or put them into the free little library).
Yes! It’s definitely freeing when I officially realize the book isn’t for me and I can let it go. Gets a little bit of the anxious feeling from having unread books gone.
I don’t have any close friends who read, so I either bring them to a used book store or something once I have a good amount 😊
"We're gonna do something your daddy didn't do, we're gonna wrap it up" I had to STOP the video because I laughed so hard, omg It's the first video of yours I've watched, didn't even realize I watched a full hour just like that, wow. Added two books to my TBR haha. I'm in love with your accent and the way you talk, can't wait to get better at crochet so I can watch you while doing it :)
🩷🩷🩷 yesssss let’s crochet all the things!’
This would probably defeat the purpose of your challenge, but maybe you could split the titles in your jar up by genre into individual jars if you're ever wanting to read a specific kind of book that isn't a thriller. Just because you said your jar was 2/3 thrillers. Either way, I love this challenge you're doing😊
I couldn't be more obsessed with this series 😭😭 I'm enthralled
Thank you 🩷 I’m so glad y’all are loving it because it’s motivating me to continue!
Don't feel bad about DNFing books!! I love to see people DNF when they're doing challenges to decrease their TBR, bc a DNF is the fastest way to get a book off the TBR, so imo it's a success.
I agree, but also I feel like it wastes money 😜 plus I almost DNFd Let Me Lie but I’m glad I didn’t because I REALLY enjoyed it in the end.
Yeah, that make sense, but I just don't want you to feel pressured to keep going only for the sake of a video--bc the video will be good either way!
Hey this is Mo, the owner of the Remontant. Thank you so much for the feature, also all the books I get from amazon also comes damaged and it is one of my biggest pet peeves. At this point I just go to my local bookstore because at least I know my book will be in decent quality. Also I love this series, like you make me feel like am getting the reality tv rundown of all these books. If that makes any senses at all. Also am gonna dm you soon ✨

Me born in '97, having an existinal crisis after listening to you say "Woooow this book is nearly 30 years old"
It's so funny when people talk about "old" books that are from the last 5 years because I'm reading The Da Vinci Code series (first book from 2000) and Sue Grafton's alphabet murder books (first book from 1982)
omgoodness the scream at 45:30 scared the crap out of me!! it’s 1:30 am and i was getting spooked listening to you talk about the murders
Haha I’m sorry! I swear I have little dinosaur rawrs going on here 24/7
The Bone Collector movie (1999) was great with Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie. I really enjoy this video series of yours.
I’m going to watch it later this week! I also saw there was a series (tho short lived) that came out a couple years ago I may watch as well!
One of my favourite movies. I’d love to know how the book compares
I enjoyed the series and was so disappointed when they canceled it
I found you through your first episode of this series and I’ve just been patiently waiting for the next one lol I’m soooo happy I found you!!
Headed to bed but can't wait to watch tomorrow! Had to like and comment to support. 💛
You’re the sweetest 💕
I love this series already! I want to do the same for myself but I want to get my "currently reading" list down to 0 and then do it 😂 Love the concept, love your personality and love discovering new books! When I saw that the next episode dropped, I started watching it immediately.
I don’t know how to word this without sounding judgy but I mean in out of pure amazement. A physical tbr of 754 sounds insane to me! I thought my ~30 was hard to wrap my head around! Good luck tackling it you can do it! This will take so long wow! (5 books a month = 12,5 years WOW)
lol, well I read more than 5 books a month 😜 and it’s my lifetime library, so I don’t ever expect to have a super tiny TBR. And my husband reads as well, so he’s also in there picking books up. But to each their own and I don’t take offense by it. Collecting books is another hobby for me so it’s bound to get wild. I unhaul books pretty regularly as well as buy. It’s just what I love so it is what it is 🤷🏻♀️🫶🏻😜
Spencer Reid ♥️ ‘criminal minds’ will always have a special place in my heart. Also that’s the only Murray that matters lol
Also it’s always nice when you realize a book is something you aren’t interested in or the writing style you can’t get with, and can declutter it to make more space for those you love.
I would just dnf it whenever you start to get those vibes rather than forcing yourself to finish it knowing your probably won’t like it and it won’t redeem itself for you by the end. If anything you could add another book to read if you have time when you have a lot that you dnf maybe even a reread of one you’ve been wanting to reread
The Wife Between Us sounds like a Freida McFadden book that I loved. Obviously I have no idea if the twists are the same, but the beginning set up is silimiar.
I love the border you did on your blanket!!
Thank you 🩷
The way I subscribed so fast when you sang Selena! This is the first video I’ve watched of yours and I love this idea! Can’t wait to see more 😊
Now that I’ve finished uni I’m definitely doing this because I’m in love with this idea! However I’m not very happy about having to write all my books down 🤣
The Bone collector book sounds like Ironside, a show where the Police Chief is paralyzed but has a team to work on cases
The impractical jokers Murray had he rolling lmaoooo
😂
Hey so I just stumbled across your channel with this series and loveee it!! Would you ever do a spoiler section especially for books that make you especially heated? I love watching people rant or rave about books they hate/love respectfully 😂❤❤
just found this series and i'm obsessed! can't wait for the next installment! might also have to do something similar myself 👀
girl i’m obsessed with this idea!! i’m gonna have to do my own version 🤗
I just wanted to say that I totally adore your energy and personality! You truly kept me engaged with the video the entire time and I cannot wait to watch more of your content!
i'm so glad i found your channel through this video series!! i absolutely love this type of video project and your commentary on the books is hilarious💗
This is my new favorite series on Booktube. ❤
You’re too sweet!! 🩷🩷🩷
Hahaha looking like professor snape!!! Had me dying
Does your library also offer Hoopla? It’s like Libby except no waits if they have the ebook/audiobook. It also has music and movies but there is usually a limit to how many you can borrow. But it comes in the clutch when Libby does me dirty with long wait times. I’d see if your library offers it! ❤😊
I’ve never checked! I had no idea there wasn’t a wait on Hoopla so definitely something I’ll be looking into today 💕
love your… umm meet-cute (?)… with your husband. ALSO new subscriber here!! love love the way you explain books
I love the intro and you should use it every time for this series
I’m loving this series! 😊
Me too 😜 definitely feel like I’m making a good dent in the physical TBR pile 🩷
This is the first video of watched of yours, and I'm gonna keep watching. I love the style of this video. Plus, booktube is my happy place 🙂 xx
your bookshelf is stunning!! goals
Thank you!!💖
Good for you for DNFing Meet Me At the Lake. Not a fan myself lol
When the camera wasn't focused it looked like my vision without glasses lol
Same 😂
I had to check if I was wearing my glasses 😅
I'm really loving this series! new subscriber for sure! Can we mention this point of the video 56:09 because I died at that part😂

This is the first of your videos I’ve watched, and I’m immediately following! Especially after the wrap it up joke 😂😂
That cover of Carrie is so pretty! I still need to read it. I’ve only read 3 of his books (the shining, the outsider, and the green mile)
thank you for making me feel semi-normal - i have 840 unread books 😭 working to get my number down but myyyyy goodness it’s hard when good new books keep coming out 😂
I'm not a fan of long videos but I decided to click on yours. Its the first one I've watched on your channel [& I'm currently 20 mins into it rn]. Anyway new subscriber here! Very entertaining vid. 🎉
I'm definitely going to steal this technique to go through all my books!
I’m living for this series!!
🩷🩷🩷
your dog is cracking me uppppp LOL
We love a good pug moment😂
This is such a fun video idea!!
Thank you 😊 🩷
Just stumbled upon your channel, and this series is amazing. Also did you know that there is a movie version of the bone collector.
I can't remember the last time I bought off Amazon; every book I ordered came to me damaged. Waterstones is a lot better. Also, that is a gorgeous copy of Carrie!
Amazon returns are the easiest, at least 😵💫 so they sent my replacement book the next day. I order through Waterstones often, I just hate waiting a month for my packages because next day shipping has ruined that for me 😂
56:10 IM DEAD😂😂
Loving this series 😁 it's nice hearing about books that I haven't heard of before 😌
That cover of Carrie looks awesome!
That’s good to know about the Christmas fix. Because I have it and just picked up the first book and didn’t even know it about a month ago 😂
❤📚😂❤ You made my morning! Well, except for the moment when I spit out my coffee laughing during your morning makeup routine!😅
I love this series you're doing! I worked on my book blanket while watching, lol.
Thank you for sharing your experiance with flooding. I can see why that would be triggering!
The Bone Collector movie and book was really good. I enjoyed both.
beth is officially my fave booktuber

I’m staying up just to watch this I been waiting for this video I love your videos

I forgot to comment on the other one (where you unhauled 2 instead of reading Alone with you in the Ether). You should allow one “put back” if the book picked will put you in a slump. But you can only put it back once.
I can't get enough of these videos. I love them so much. I really need to do something like this. Gahhhh. It inspires me!!
Hi Beth! Love the intro and I feel exposed bc I’m on that TBR bus with you. lol Love this concept. I’m trying to read my all my library books that came all at once, new releases 😂🤣💖🌸
PUG!!! lol sorry if that’s weird but I just saw your pug and that made me so excited lol
Can’t wait for the next episode of this!! Eagerly awaiting!!
Ok not to freak you out but… you are my new TH-cam best friend haha! I loved this video so much, you’re just a babe. Also the whole “smiling at the end of a book” thing you said towards the end made me think of my face at the end of Rouge. Idk if you’ve read that one but I looked like a huge dork alone in my room after reading that ending, it was all worth it for the ending. Excited to watch more from you, and love the concept of this content! Thank you for taking the time to make it, I know how hard that is with kids 😅
I also have a candle obsession! I need to check out that brand
I really enjoy your videos! I just found your channel yesterday and this is the third video ive watched! I really like your personality and this challenge!
You are so fun I love you 😭😭🫶🏻 I had the best time watching this video and I can’t wait to see more of this series :))

Thanks for sharing a little about your personal story. Woww!
There is an amazing Bone Collector movie and Lincoln is played by Denzel Washington. It’s SO good. You should watch it afterwards.
That border is amazing!! 😍
Thank you 🩷
OMG! I thought I was the only one who had that thought about Amazon…they started out as a book seller yet still can’t figure out how to send out books in a way that protects them from damage. I guess that shows our age to even know that Amazon started as a book seller. 😜
I'm loving this series!! Especially when I see books that I've read. I've read, Let Me Lie and The Wife Before years ago. I remember liking them both. Ive actually reread both of them since. But even that was years ago now. I can totally see why The Wife Before didnt hit for you, since you've read 2 others that sound better. I'll DM you bc I wamtt to hear which two they remind you of. Lol
Dont feel bad for DNFing books! Read what makes you feel good, getting books to unhaul is the point of this series, DNFs are fine!
I love dnf reviews way more than 5 star reviews
I REALLY enjoy these vlogs of you trying to read your bookshelves! You motivate me to do the same, thank youu ❤ Waiting for more 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you 💕
I’m loving this series! so when you said you wouldn’t recommend the bone collector as your first series for forensic crime. What is a series you would recommend? I already read the complete Grant county and will Trent series and I love them. I don’t mind if books are written 80s 90s early 2000s.
I meant I wouldn’t recommend for your first crime thriller because it’s heavy on the forensic talk. BUT Grant/Will Trent is definitely crime thrillers and has forensic talk, so I think you’re good 😉 just STAY AWAY from the horrible audiobook.
If the personality hadn’t already convinced me to subscribe, singing Selena definitely did! I’m new here, so hoping you’re a Texas girlie like me!
Hiiii! I am 🫶🏻 Houston girlie 😜
@@BethMorvant love it! I didn’t grow up there, but I went to college in Huntsville!
I gave The Wife Between Us a 4 Star in 2019 and upon reread last year I gave it 1 Star and unhauled. Let me Lie is on my physical TBR too. The others I was not aware of.
Will come back at the end.
EDIT: Super stoked for Let me lie now. I wonder if the bone collector book is as good as the movie with Denzel Washington because I love that movie!!
Amazon does not give a fuck when they ship out books. My books look rough as hell when I open up the package 😅
I try and listen to the sample of audiobooks before buying. So sad there isn’t more borrow platforms.
I have recently found your channel and I love it! You are so real and relatable (I have two under 4, so mom life lol)
Thank you so much!! 💖 reading definitely is different when you’re momming, that’s for sure
just found your Channel, and ilove it! you' re so funny
Can you explain the other books like the wife between us …great video
Love this vlog project!❤
Love the long form video ❤️
I love these video’s!!!! Can’t wait for more ❤️
I love Christmas romances!
Oh, I do as well!! Sometimes I just forget how cheesy they can actually be 😜
@@BethMorvant They are cheesy! For some reason they calm me.
I love this idea! So fun :)
hey this is the first video ive watched of yours and i find really liked it! one thing i would say is that i think everyone would be fine if you spoiled the books. i would love you talk about the whole books id also think it would improve the video. i want to hear your thoughts!
I definitely won’t be adding spoilers, as most people won’t watch if they haven’t read the books yet. So this way anyone can watch and not have to worry about that
I love this series!!

I'm only up to you finishing the first book, but could you let me know what the book with this same trope is that you rated 5 stars 🙏?
I'm new to your channel but have you used Hoopla?? No wait times and they have a huge library and it is attached to your library account too - you only get four rentals a month but totally free. I've done a lot of my audiobooks through them lately.
I’ve tried to sign up today but it needs a pin for my library card and idk what that even is 😵💫 so I have to contact my library. Hopefully I’ll have it figured out asap!
@BethMorvant that's so weird - I only signed up for it a couple of weeks ago and don't remember it asking for a pin so maybe it's a your library thing?? Hopefully you get it figured out!! It's a nice resource.
Over 700 books...damn...impressive!
You are just so funny 😂❤.
I read christmas fix wirhout reading fixer uper. It was fine as a stand alone.
I love this series, Beth! Had to sub!
(I need to do the same. The majority of my books are unread. 380+ atm. thanks for the inspo
Books from Amazon ALWAYS come damaged for me
Oh I want to know what the 5 star book is that The wife between us reminds you of.
If I say it, because it’s the twist and themes after the twist, it will give away the whole plot essentially 😜 otherwise I would have said it in the video.
@@BethMorvant totally understand. 💜
Hi I just found your channel today and I wanted to let you know that you were talking about your book blanket and were concerned about 100 Rose of stitches weren't going to be enough to make a full blanket. As someone who is 145 stitches around making a top right now, I can say that 100 Rose is not enough to make a full blanket. Just thought I'd let you know. Try doing three rows of each color or more
Yes I’ve done the math, and to make it a square I have to read 166 books. Its fine tho if its just a lap blanket 😜
I have not finished the entire video yet but have heard your initial thoughts on "The Wife Between Us" and I agree that book is an unhaul. I listened to it a few years ago so maybe I would like it more now, but I highly doubt it since thrillers aren't usually my jam. I will say that I like how all the pieces fell together in concept, just didn't like the actual pieces. Also, I wasn't rooting for any of the characters which does not serve that book well
I feel like I’ve read many thrillers now that I most likely won’t enjoy them like I would if I would have read them years ago. I also agree that there wasn’t really anyone who I was rooting for in it, however, a lot of thrillers are like that with me. This is definitely one of the reasons why I’m trying to get out of reading 90 percent thrillers & hoping to cut my thriller TBR in half by the end of the year 😜
My dad passed in 2014 and my most recurring dream is him still being alive but having an alternate life so it’s wild hearing about your book and what you would do if your mom was still alive. Also came to say I love this series you are doing with your current physical books!🧶📚🤓
