All of your “oh no”s and “errrrrr” of dread were so relatable 😂 choosing favourite books every year is always a pain and also one of my favourite thing to do every year haha ❤️
I'm gonna use your 12 favorite books as a sort of reading list for me next year lol i haven't read in forever, i need to get into the habit again #plantmas2021
Let’s just say it, asking a book lover to choose a favorite book is like choosing a favorite child, it’s so freaking hard! It’s Mission Impossible: Book Protocol 😂 Great choices
Just judging from your wrap up videos, I had a feeling The Stone Sky would take the cake haha, books that make you cry and FEEL are the best . I finally started the first book in September but was struggling, I think it wasn’t the best time this year for reading in general, so I’m going to give it another go 😁
The TJ Klune books utterly destroyed me when I read them, both are so beautiful and have become two of my all time favorite books Ive ever read with the House in the Cerulean Sea just being a bit more of a favorite. 😊
I remember reading House of leaves for my literature undergraduate a couple of years ago and it blew me away. It's a book I'll never forget. It gave me so many mixed feelings; I was scared, excited, inspired, shocked, confused and just amazed. It was so creative yet unhinged? Blew me away.
It was quite funny to see you struggle through your favourite books 😂 I know why I avoid such questions at all costs. I couldn't chose just one favourite book. 🤯 I really looking forward to "Under the whispering door". 💚
I just recently got back into recreational reading, targeting one book a month. I’ve been having trouble picking in the sea of the library, so I’m going to use your top twelve to have something to seek out!
I love this idea. I will be trying it out for 2022 for myself next year, exept I will be pairing the months up with Jan/Jul, Feb/Aug, Mar/Sep, Apr/Oct, May/Nov, and Jun/Dec.
I have really gotten out of the habit of reading in the past few years. I used to consume books obsessively. You have inspired me to challenge myself in 2022 to read books again! Thank you!!
I can imagine how hard this was but it was soo fun to watch! This is such a fun spread to incorporate, I think I'll have to do a version in my reading journal when I'm done with my reads.
The Stone Sky was my favorite book of the year as well, and when trying to decide in a head-to-head, I also had trouble distinguishing it from the series as a whole! I picked the series up after hearing you reccomend it back in the summer.
I’m so glad you loved it! It seems the series is a bit hit and miss for people (or at least the first book, since most people who didn’t enjoy book one didn’t continue) but I adored it ❤️❤️
I haven't been able to watch all the Plantmas videos as it's so busy with 4 family birthdays on top of the holidays. Looking forward to all the extra content I'll have here, after things slow down again💖 Hope you have a Merry Christmas Elizabeth!
This was fun to watch. You didn’t pick the books I thought you would. My stepdaughter loves high fantasy and we buddy read books. We’ll have to try that trilogy! 🌌
Oh I’m so curious about which books you thought I’d pick! I’d definitely recommend checking out content earnings for the trilogy first, especially if your stepdaughter is young!
I’m no good at reading, never seems like I have the time but I do love audiobooks - because I always need to have background “noise” to half focus on when doing anything so this year I’ve joined a book club, I’m aiming to listen to 22 audiobooks throughout the year and I’m frantically writing down suggestions from your faves! I just hope there are audiobook versions available!
Great inspiration! Just retired. Reading and journals are me! What a wonderful way to launch 2022. So excited. Thank you for sharing and can’t wait to follow your channel!
I feel with you! All of the books sound amazing and I think I'm going to read all of them (even though I will never be as fast as you :P). The Broken-Earth-Trilogy is just breathtaking! I've never read such amazing story telling and it inspired me so much for my own writing. And by the way, I was sobbing at the end as well. Super emotional! Looking forward to your next video. Sending love and creative vibes
to keep it with choosing between 2 at the end and also leaving space for some that i think should just be part of it even if theres another of the month as well - i did a 16 bracket so the 12 months plus 4 wild card options
That is an awesome spread. I really had to do that next year in my bullet journal. I only have pages for all of my reading books, where I places down all the covers at the end of the year.
This is why I choose my favorite at the end of each month. Narrowing down 250 books to 1 at the end of the year would be impossible lol, I choose favorites for each genre. I didn't realize you were such a huge fantasy reader. My favorite fantasy was Under the Whispering Door.
Yes, I couldn't wait for it, especially because you mentioned it in your reading journal setup. I love the aestetic of your setups and the scrapbooking feel. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. ❤#plantmas #plantmas2021
This video was the most entertaining and yet stressful video i ever watched! choosing the favourite book is like picking your favourite child😭😭😭 I had a feel that the best book of 2021 would be The Stone Sky, and thanks to you, I finally read it and it broke me apart😭😭😭 Thank you for reccomending! There were so many books here that I loved and also eager to read and seeing you come to decisions on them was stunning..❤❤❤
Our reading tastes couldn't be more different. I DNF'ed The Broken Earth trilogy at about 80% through book 2 and it made my "Biggest Disappointments" list. So far, we've agreed on only one book opinion-wise: The House in the Cerulean Sea. But I still enjoy all your videos. It's very interesting to hear other opinions and extrapolate what your general tastes in reading are, based on your five-star reads. It's a lot of fun for me. :)
I actually enjoyed this! It game me an inside look of your reading bujo, and how I could start one should I go this route for 2022. I appreciated the indecisiveness, because this is how my Libra brain works 🤣😂 Thank you for also providing me with a list of books for the new year. 🖤
@@PlantBasedBride it's such a struggle 😂😂 but I think this just managed to convince me, I've been thinking about it for a while. I have my own excel file where I keep an inventory of all my books and record the data on what I read and then I use storygraph, but I just love the idea of having my own journal about it too, I can't help it 😅
loveee seeing you "suffer" haha! this is so relatable, i can never choose ONE favorite of literally anything. definitely putting all the books here i haven't read in my TBR! 🥰
I find your method of picking your favorite book of the year interesting, though I would personally do it following my 'feeling'. Obviously this would be easier in my case because I read much less. Also, I would probably pick my top 10 or 12 of the year and make a list for my 'celebrations' journal of all the things achieved during the year. But above all, I absolutely admire that you not only read 125 books a year, but make a (beautiful!) spread for each of them. That is dedication to reading! #plantmas2021
This would be so hard for me too! I am thrilled that Stone Sky 'won' your book showdown as I love N.K. Jemisin's works. I would definitely recommend reading the rest of her works if you haven't yet.I would also recommend the Lillith's Brood trilogy by Octavia Butler. It is definitely one of my favorites that I return to again and again,
i just started reading house of leaves, i'm like an hour away from finishing the piranesi audiobook, and i have we have always lived in the castle waiting in the wings for when i'm done with house of leaves, absolutely referring to this when i need new books to read! :)
*You should come up with a short list of criteria, as to what makes « a good book for u » or/and what makes a good book in general, in order to help your pick😉😉*
Honestly I love your voice so much.... i have not read one single book that you read coz i dont read as much as i want to but your voice - just listening to it is so calming and relatable... Have yoy considered making a podcast? 😁 Would definitely follow...❤️
This video was SO FUN! I am not a reader but your reviews have me inspired to read / listen to all your top 12 (technically going to be 14 because I’m going to start with the Jemisin trilogy!) so thank you for inspiring me!
Instead of the "Deserted Island" question, I always ask myself, "If I was going on vacation for a week or two and only had room for one book, what would I take." The deserted island question gives me hives. 😂
I love your reactions (I haven't read a lot this year so I can't really pick a favourite) i've been reading about the icelandic tradition of Jólabókaflóðið which translates roughly to the christmas book flood is the tradition of giving books to people on christmas eve and them settling down to read it
This was so great! So many good books on this list! I love both Rebecca and House in the Cerulean Sea, I can't wait to read Stone Sky. That finisher surprised me, I thought for sure Under Whispering Door had won
My absolute favorite read this year was by Qian Julie Wong called Beautiful Country. As I’ve been studying Mandarin for nearly a year now, it’s even more fascinating to put some AAPI experience in that scope.
Hi, Elizabeth! I'm just starting with bullet journaling, and I'm continually amazed at how versatile a bujo is. Thank you for sharing this one! I love the scrapbook-type spreads. I also love the idea of including stickers and photos related to the book. I've just discovered your channel this month and I'm loving your videos. Please continue inspiring us. Thanks again! ☺️ Also, #Plantmas2021
You saying that the book won an award made me think that you should make a sticker that says "Favorite Book of 2021" or something to put on or in it so that it's displayed and you can have a cool collection of books that show the favorite of each year!!
Such a fun process! I think my favourite of the year was The Galaxy, And The Ground Within (although I can understand why you picked House of Leaves instead for that month, it sounds like an EXPERIENCE), and I also adored To Be Taught, If Fortunate AND A Psalm For The Wild-Built. But, you know I love me some Chambers. So good
I think I'm going to do this to pick my favs of the year because I'm also a mess to pick favorites 🤣 The house in the cerulean sea will provably be on my top 3 too!
I know you've already made the bracket for 2022, but I wonder if you would find it better/easier/otherwise enjoyable to not find the ultimate favorite of the year but instead the favorite in each genre? Like, comparing books that are good for wildly different reasons feels impossible to me! (Also, you could conceivably compare series as opposed to individual books in a series when NK Jemison ultimately sweeps the floor again :P )
#plantmas2021. I started with the Reading Journal last year, but the number of books I read makes it hard to record everything I want. But my goal for 2022 is to focus more on the Reading Journal. Your videos about Reading Journal are my favorite and I like it the most of all the YTs I watch.
I love your spread. Just a thought though. What if you like the March and April ones more than both of Jan and Feb combined. Wouldn’t that make you miss out on your actual favourite. Thinking out loud, but an amazing spread.
This is why I didn’t try to pick a top read this year! I would have struggled SO much. Also because I don’t have 5 star reads each month (I read around 50 a year and a good ten or so are for school) this method wouldn’t work for me personally. BUT it was very fun to watch this video!! #plantmas2021
Oh my god, your feelings about House of Leaves gave me flashbacks. I didn't even read it, my boyfriend did, but he was fucking OBSESSED with it but like in a love/hate way LOL. He seriously considered burying it or burning it because it felt like it was cursed hahahaha
I could never do this so major kudos to you for making the hard decisions! I honestly like/love every book I read and I have more 5 stars than not lmao 😂 THE MIDNIGHT LIBRARY THO!!! Lives up to the hype for sure! If I had to pick I’d probably choose Kingdom of the Cursed! Wrath has my whole heart 🖤 #plantmas2021
All of your “oh no”s and “errrrrr” of dread were so relatable 😂 choosing favourite books every year is always a pain and also one of my favourite thing to do every year haha ❤️
Haha I cut out so many (along with long pauses for panicked processing) so this video wouldn’t be an hour and a half long lol 😂
I'm gonna use your 12 favorite books as a sort of reading list for me next year lol i haven't read in forever, i need to get into the habit again #plantmas2021
Haha I love that! I hope you enjoy them 🥰
Let’s just say it, asking a book lover to choose a favorite book is like choosing a favorite child, it’s so freaking hard! It’s Mission Impossible: Book Protocol 😂 Great choices

I finally started the first book in September but was struggling, I think it wasn’t the best time this year for reading in general, so I’m going to give it another go 😁
Haha you know me too well! It’s definitely a tougher read that you want to be in the right place for but so worth it in my opinion ❤️
do try again it took me two tries to get into it as well but the trilogy was so worth it!
The TJ Klune books utterly destroyed me when I read them, both are so beautiful and have become two of my all time favorite books Ive ever read with the House in the Cerulean Sea just being a bit more of a favorite. 😊
They’re both so so good ❤️❤️
I remember reading House of leaves for my literature undergraduate a couple of years ago and it blew me away. It's a book I'll never forget. It gave me so many mixed feelings; I was scared, excited, inspired, shocked, confused and just amazed. It was so creative yet unhinged? Blew me away.
It was quite funny to see you struggle through your favourite books 😂 I know why I avoid such questions at all costs. I couldn't chose just one favourite book. 🤯
I really looking forward to "Under the whispering door". 💚
Haha it was rough! I cut out some very long pauses with a lot of indecisive sounds to save on time lol
@@PlantBasedBride 😂 in the end you came up with your favourite book 2021. So it's fine I guess ... until the end of 2022 🤭
I just recently got back into recreational reading, targeting one book a month. I’ve been having trouble picking in the sea of the library, so I’m going to use your top twelve to have something to seek out!

Oo nice!
I'm sitting here chanting "House of Leaves, House of Leaves" I LOVED that book so much.
I have really gotten out of the habit of reading in the past few years. I used to consume books obsessively. You have inspired me to challenge myself in 2022 to read books again! Thank you!!
I felt the struggle in my soul. Especially after watching all the wrap ups each month. Definitely have some good tbrs from this video 📚
Haha the struggle was real! I hope you love these books if you pick them up ❤️
I honestly added all the books you mentioned here to my "to read" pile. They sound amazing and I haven't heard about some of them!
I hope you love them all as much as I did!
I can imagine how hard this was but it was soo fun to watch! This is such a fun spread to incorporate, I think I'll have to do a version in my reading journal when I'm done with my reads.

I have the Broken Earth trilogy on my TBR list, hopefully I'll get to it soon!
I hope you love it as much as I did!!
I was rooting for Watch Over Me. One of my 5 star reads this year. You've inspired me to do this for 2022.
I have never watched anything so relatable in my life 😂
Haha the way she threw out The Little Paris Bookshop immediately 💀 me too girl
Lol I tried but it was just not for me one bit 😂
Great inspiration! Just retired. Reading and journals are me! What a wonderful way to launch 2022. So excited. Thank you for sharing and can’t wait to follow your channel!

The Midnight Library was one of my favorites for the year. Might be my top contender
It was fun to watch your emotional turmoil. Haha. Great idea for picking a favorite. I'm gonna copy it

I started listening to The Fifth Season while I'm at work. I can't stop. It's so incredibly good. Thank you for the recommendation!
The earnest “oh no” made me laugh every time!
I love TJ Klune as well, I’m glad two of his books made their way to your top!

i LOVE Blue Castle and nobody has ever heard of it! It is one of my all-time favorite books!
I ordered the Broken Earth trilogy as I was watching. You are very persuasive!
Oh I hope you love it!!
This was a fun video for me because a lot of your top books/authors are already in my 2022 pile! I feel the hype!!
I actually enjoyed this! It game me an inside look of your reading bujo, and how I could start one should I go this route for 2022. I appreciated the indecisiveness, because this is how my Libra brain works 🤣😂 Thank you for also providing me with a list of books for the new year. 🖤
All of this video was so relatable, I never know how to pick what my favourite books are.
Thank you for the recommendation of the Blue Castle ❤️
This was a really great idea for a video 😃 I loved watching you choose and also getting to see your journal spreads too
This video was so much fun to watch! 💕
Thanks. I added a few more books to my reading wish list.
Oh noooo, now I need my own Reading Journal, but I already record my reading in 2 different places, whyyyy 😭😭😂
Haha relatable 😂 I track my reading so many ways!

I finally got around to reading atomic habits by james clear and I've been loving it!

Why is this my 3rd time watching this one 🧡🧡🧡 I adore it

I really felt your pain in this, but very much appreciated this! I have some additions to my tbr too❤️
haha so glad you enjoyed it!
Yay I was waiting for this video!
I was so entertained by this video lmao, so many new books added to my tbr thoooo
haha I'm so glad!
Yay, I've been looking forward to this video. As a fellow bad with decisions human, I felt your struggle. 📚 😍
My favorite reads were The Midnight Library, Six of Crows, The Education of Little Tree, and BearTown.
So happy you loved Firekeeper's Daughter! That's probably my favorite book of the year 💟
It was so good! Not at all what I’d expected from the synopsis/reviews but it was even better than I’d hoped ❤️
oh no! the stamping job at the end, haha. i love how organic it is tho! #plantmas2021
you should add one wild card per season! It would help with the oh no's!
You saying that the book won an award made me think that you should make a sticker that says "Favorite Book of 2021" or something to put on or in it so that it's displayed and you can have a cool collection of books that show the favorite of each year!!
Haha ok I love this!
A very interesting watch - this has been really useful for starting a 'to read' list for myself for next year (aiming for 22 books in 2022).
Glad it was helpful! ❤
There is no way that I could torture myself the way you did! Well done! #plantmas2021
Such a fun process! I think my favourite of the year was The Galaxy, And The Ground Within (although I can understand why you picked House of Leaves instead for that month, it sounds like an EXPERIENCE), and I also adored To Be Taught, If Fortunate AND A Psalm For The Wild-Built. But, you know I love me some Chambers. So good
I think I'm going to do this to pick my favs of the year because I'm also a mess to pick favorites 🤣 The house in the cerulean sea will provably be on my top 3 too!

Just finished The Fifth Season… needless to say I’m going to my library tomorrow to find The Obelisk Gate and The Stone Sky.
Not me immediately making myself a book bracket while I watch this video 😭
Yes haha 🙌
i truly cannot relate and don't plan to read any of these, but i love your vids so I'm watching and liking anyway
The way the outcome didn’t surprise me at all hahah
#plantmas2021. I started with the Reading Journal last year, but the number of books I read makes it hard to record everything I want. But my goal for 2022 is to focus more on the Reading Journal. Your videos about Reading Journal are my favorite and I like it the most of all the YTs I watch.
As you were setting up next year’s reading journal I was wondering what your book bracket would be for this year!
I was too! It made me super excited to film this haha
@@PlantBasedBride I got so excited as you were making your picks-trying to guess what you’d pick and celebrating when I got it right 🤣
My guess was House of Leaves and I was glad to see it made it to your top three XD
It’s so good!
So excited to see the House Of Leaves spread!!!
That was such a fun spread to make!!
I loved this video! Could you film a Sci-Fi book recommendations video one day?
I love your spread. Just a thought though. What if you like the March and April ones more than both of Jan and Feb combined. Wouldn’t that make you miss out on your actual favourite. Thinking out loud, but an amazing spread.
This is why I didn’t try to pick a top read this year! I would have struggled SO much. Also because I don’t have 5 star reads each month (I read around 50 a year and a good ten or so are for school) this method wouldn’t work for me personally. BUT it was very fun to watch this video!! #plantmas2021
I’m so sorry if this has already been answered elsewhere, but will you be doing a 2021 reading journal flip through? 😍
This video only shows the true history of a reader trying to pick a favorite book! 🤣😹
😂😂
Would love a video about how you fit reading into your daily life ✨
Oh my god, your feelings about House of Leaves gave me flashbacks. I didn't even read it, my boyfriend did, but he was fucking OBSESSED with it but like in a love/hate way LOL. He seriously considered burying it or burning it because it felt like it was cursed hahahaha
Love this. What printer and paper are you using to print out the images you are adding to your pages? It doesn't look like thick photo paper.
I’m curious if you’ve read Uprooted by Naomi Novik. Based on some of your selections I think you might like it. The audible version is fantastic.
I could never do this so major kudos to you for making the hard decisions! I honestly like/love every book I read and I have more 5 stars than not lmao 😂 THE MIDNIGHT LIBRARY THO!!! Lives up to the hype for sure! If I had to pick I’d probably choose Kingdom of the Cursed! Wrath has my whole heart 🖤 #plantmas2021
