@@khalilahd. Lol 😆. That book 📚 is definitely on my TBR list. Omg!!!.❤ I definitely have soooo many books left in series I've started 😅. Mystery and thrillers etc are my favorite 😊
Khalilah: ‘I’ve been reading this book for two months - that’s insane’ Me: *shrivels up in my chair embarrassed because most of my books that I insist I will one day finish haven’t been touched in a year.
I LOVED Legendborn and Bloodmarked! I read them in audiobook format and it made it that much better for me. Being a woman of color with curly hair who went to UNC, I felt like I could relate to her experiences in a way and it was exciting reading about the places that I walked every day
I'm a new subscriber and have been binging your videos. My Amazon cart is outrageous at the moment after all of your book recommendations. I was in an awful reading slump for a couple years and now am looking forward to all the new books I have purchased and will purchase. Thank you for making a middle aged lady broke. 😂♥
I’m also in the middle of a few books and I can’t seem to finish them but this makes me want to go back and finish them so now I’m going to go read for like 5 hours wish me luck 😅
so excited that you look legendborn, it’s one of my top five books for sure!! it’s my first fantasy series and i think about it all the timeeee. the first book goes from great to top tier the more you read, and the second book is even better. please keep updating us on how you find legendborn!!!
I am so proud of you for beginning the new chapter of full time content creator, you are so appreciated, so loved, you make us happy with every video❤❤❤❤
about the dark romance thing: i really enjoyed the mindfck series, in case you haven’t read that one yet. i am pretty picky when it comes to cringy dialogue and i‘d say it’s not really there in this case. its also pretty plot driven, but its a little violent, jsyk. i read it on my kindle with the separate (5) books and they flew by for me (they ARE pretty short too).
Omg the coloring book! I literally just deleted TikTok but there’s a page on there of a young woman with those coloring books who “gardens” first then colors a page lmao, it’s so satisfying to watch. Hope you enjoy coloring! It looks so cathartic 💛✨
I usually don't comment but ur videos made me comment. I love ur bookstore vlogs!!❤😊 Pls recommend some thriller and crime books which don't have a predictable ending. 😅 It's been a lot of time since I read a 5 star thriller book.😶🤐
Ahhh I’m so glad you are enjoying Legendborn. It’s my favorite fantasy series! I live in NC so it was so amazing to see references to places near me, also the representation ❤ feels like the book was made for me tbh. If Selwyn needed a kidney I’d give him one LOL. Ngl I’m curious for your thoughts for Haunting Adeline lol
Loved Legendborn! It was great to be able to connect to Bree, especially all her comments about hair 😂…I also can’t wait for the third book next year! Loved the video 😊
I am reading Legendborn this month too! I am at the halfway point. I am listening to the audiobook and tbh I wish I had started reading it physically bc even as a fantasy girl, the magic system confused me lol I think this is definitely one of those books if you listen to the audio you gotta have the physical or e-book handy. Also, I am getting the feeling that Bri is gonna end up crushing on Sel at some point in this series. Like, the tension between them is giving TRUE enemies...probably gonna end up as lovers. But I am team Nick all the way lol
I am in the middle of 4 books & I keep finishing other books. It's been months. But I've decided to finish them this year 😅 Your video popped on right time 😄👍
I’m actually really happy your reading legend born, I’ve been hoping that you’d read it! I wonder if it’d be easier to listen to rather than read it? 🤔 it’s been on my TBR but I keep pushing it back 🫣
Legendborn is a really good book and it covers a lot of topics. It is the first book that I wanted to tab and annotate and I don't tab or annotate. The magic system is based on medieval times (King Arthur, Lancelot, etc). The author based Brie off herself, she lost her mother. I am hoping to read the second book before the third book comes out.
i started coloring with alcohol markers too recently!! its so fun, just put a piece of cardstock paper or thick paper behind the page you are coloring and ur all good!
I loved Legendborn so much! I went to college about 30 minutes from UNC Chapel Hill. My friends and I used to party there all the time. 😉 The way the author describes the campus felt so familiar and so nostalgic for me. And…I agree with everything you said about the importance of representation. It definitely matters. 🫶🏽
I got that coloring book for this Halloween season also, it’s so freaking cute. And yes please put a protection sheet under the page your coloring to catch the ink bleeding. All alcohol markers bleed tragically 😅
I’m currently at varying lengths in 10 books 😂 I’m working on it… one thing that interrupts me is my Libby, giving me access to books earlier than I plan for 😅 I did finish 3 books I started in July though. Progress! 😆
Hey Friend, Happy Sunday. I love character development and growth of a character. My favorite part about growth in a character is if they were a bad person in the book and then they became good. 😌 I feel like this video will help motivate those who haven’t finished their books yet before starting a new one. Most of us have books that we haven’t finished yet that we can’t get into. 😅👻🎃
Oh my gosh I read a good chunk of Haunting Adeline and the bad language right up front and the storyline itself was so creepy that I had to put it down. I kept rolling my eyes while reading it. Then I went on good reads and Reddit it to see if I was alone and everyone was saying that it romanticizes rape! I was like nope nope nope not for me. Needless to say it was returned to KIndle Unlimited. Really enjoyed this video!
I am an Indian and I have never read about an Indian woman, accurately represented who I can imagine myself as. I have read books where the female character is half Indian but the "indianness" never really shows. I'm pretty sure there are good representation books out there maybe I just haven't found them yet😂
girl the amount of books im in the middle of is EMBARRASSING!!! at this point they're dnf's :((( ALSO if you just slide a spare piece of paper behind the page you're coloring it won't bleed through! i have the same coloring book and it's never failed me!
For the life of me I cannot finish Whisper Network.....I don't know why. I haven't gotten very far and just lost interest. Did anyone read it? Thoughts??
« The fact that it is a poorly written book »😂had me laughing sooooo hard ! Girl have u read Twisted love ? bc that book really makes no sense I’m sorry . I’ll pass on that one . BUT if you like representation and fantasy you should REALLY ( and I empathise on the REALLY ) read « this poison heart » it is so underrated but it’s my fav book ! The funny thing is that the main character is also named Bri ( short for Briseis ) and as a Black girl I WAS HERE FOR IT !!! So yeah if you like lendgenborn , you should really like this one !! anyways love u girl ❤❤😂
"three months in advanced, thank yew very much" deserves a like on its own 😭
I'm actually in the middle of like 5 books and your video just popped up when I was starting a sixth one 😂
Finish yo books 😂😂😂😂
@CandyMlm This comment is so real
That’s me omg I’m starting to stress tho bc I have so many unfinished books lol
Not me seeing the thumbnail and thinking you finished Legendborn without us 😂 so glad we’re all understanding more now!
Haha i wouldnt do that to yall 😅

That character already sounds just like you. You are strong, brave, and kind.
In the middle of 3 books I don't know when will I finish them, in the meantime I want to start reading the 4th one
Legendborn is my absolute fav series and is what got me into fantasy! Hope you love it as much as me when you finish 😊
Legendborn was my favorite book of the year!

HAUNTING ADELINE. girl lol you are diving into the deep end lol 😭😭

I’m currently in the middle of Legendborn ( trying not to read ahead of the group 😂),Phantasma, and Daisy Haites.
I love your videos Khalilah and you are literally my comfort youtuber 🤧🫶❤️
I’m actually really happy your reading legend born, I’ve been hoping that you’d read it! I wonder if it’d be easier to listen to rather than read it? 🤔 it’s been on my TBR but I keep pushing it back 🫣
Tbh I would recommend the physical, there’s a lot going on with it
@@TashaxMack maybe both then
You should read six of crowns by Leigh badurgo. I think you will like it !!!!

When coloring with markers try putting a sheet of something plasticy behind the page you are coloring so it doesn't bleed through
i was looking for something to watch and u posted yayyyyyyyy
you should read the collected regrets of clover. it is such a beautiful book about grief
Your hair looks stunning gurllll
ngl you convinced me to pick up legend born and read it
I got that coloring book for this Halloween season also, it’s so freaking cute. And yes please put a protection sheet under the page your coloring to catch the ink bleeding. All alcohol markers bleed tragically 😅
