Hey hey! I'm still very much in a romance mood, so I wanted to read some popular romances I've seen and a couple newer releases. It was a journey...have you read any of these? (Apologies for the literal end of the video bc i don't know what happened but I'm not changing it LOL)
Thanks for watching!

You left that job EARLY? You READ?!?! OUR GIRL IS BAAAACK!!!
🥳🥳🥳
OVER AN HOUR?! bless 😭 🙌🏼
TRYING TO GET LIKE YOUUUU
Congrats on leaving your job! The momentary guilt is real but the feeling of being finally free is so worth it. Also, please let Nigel know he is adorable and I love him (even if I did have to get out of bed to give my own dogs treats because they heard he was getting some and that wasn't fair 😂)
OMG Nigel's side eye 35 min in 🤣
he is so annoyed with me LOL
I'm so happy for you leaving that job! 🎉🍾 It must have felt so good to finally be done.
SO GOOD
the poisons we drink was one of the books that got review bombed by that weird reylo lady isn't it?
Oooooh maybe it was
An hour long vlog....this is how you do a comeback 😂 Congrats on leaving your job 🎉 Love the casual Empire reference 💜
☺️☺️
I loved Butcher and blackbird but I just leaned into the delulu vibes and didn't think about it at all. Your point about things being able to work better in a more fantasy setting is so spot on though.
I did NOT expect to love Done & Dusted and Swift & Saddled as much as I did but I read each book in one day. I ate them up!!!
WHOOT CONGRATS ON LEAVING THAT TOXIC JOB!!!
“ I think I could finish this tonight but I just need something swee” is an ultimate vibe 🤣
Not the dog toy for a bookmark 😂
Whatever is closest 🤣
JESS UR VIDS ALWAYS CRACK ME UP OMG 😂😭
🥰🥰
so happy for you for quitting your job. Living vicariously through you while watching this in the background at work currently🤭
We’re so happy to have you back that job can kick rocks! 😆
🥳🥳
I'm so happy you got to a place where you can finally afford to leave that job! 💜💜💜
🩵🩵🩵
I just finished Just for the Summer I really enjoyed it. Not a five but a 4.5.
The Air He Breathes hit hard! I shed some tears on that one. The Gravity of Us was also pretty good.
HECK YES! I’m so happy you’re able to leave that soul sucking job, you were there for so long too! The vlog style has always suited you too. ❤❤
🥰🥰
Welcome back!!! Missed the vlogs. Congrats on leaving that job. 🎉🎉
Thank youu!
An hour long vloggggggg??? Bless your heart! You always know how to entertain us! Whats next for you now that you left your job?
Great question 🤣🤣🤣 just vibing at the moment
@@JessOwens I love this for you!! Enjoy this time, we can see the glow ♥️
Not I thought I was breathing loud and then realized it was Nigel 😂.... For Butcher & Blackbird you definitely should have had the audio book.
The joy you have in this video is so wonderful!! I’m so happy for you!!
Thank you 🥰
UGH NIGEL IS SOOOOOO PRECIOUS. GENTLE
This just reinforced my feeling that i just wont enjoy Butcher and Blackbird. Thank you for the heads up.
Hoping to save as many people as I can 🩵
I'm loving Abby Jimenez at the mo, and I recently finished How to End a Love Story by Yulin Kaung and loved it! Would recommend, it had the almost hook ups and slow burn feelings, too, so you might like it.
congrats on leaving your job! when you picked up blackbird and whatever I screamed NO! So many people hate that book lolol. Also, when you said we still masking I also screamed with glee. Excited to see more vids from you
I wish past Jessica could hear you and not pick up butcher & blackbird 😂
I dnf Icebreaker at 40% mostly because I couldn’t describe the main characters as people. I felt the smut was over powering the nonexistent plot. I wish I read Wildfire(2nd book) instead.
I previously tried reading Icebreaker but couldn't make it more than 5 pages before getting annoyed. But I read Wildfire and adored it, to the point where I'm almost willing to give Icebreaker a second chance. Almost. I have the audio checked out on libby and just keep reading other things instead.
It‘s been a day, so thank you for this 1 hour blog. What a treat! ❤
I feel you on finally being free from a shitty job, that shit feels amazing! Nothing like that type of pure joy 😂 I just left mine a week ago after putting up with it for 3 years 😮💨 (and it’s funny because my names also Jessica) so CONGRATS TO YOU for finally leaving too!!! 🎉✨🎉✨🎉 I wish you so much success and happiness! ❤
But yeah I feel you bc even though I didn’t feel guilty about leaving mine, I did feel sad, which is weird bc I hated this job with every cell in my body 😂
Also Nigel is so darn cute, I smile so big my cheeks literally hurt every time he pops in 🥰🥹💖
Congrats to us for leaving those jobs!!!
I love how you grabbed the book under and not the one on top 😂 I thought I was the only one who did that (and I blame my momma for the habit lol)
🤣🤣🤣
I'm so happy for you leaving that job. This vlog was great. Give Nigel hugs for me.
I read the sequel to Done and Dusted (Swift and Saddled) and there's a Luda reference like 30 pages in and I was so here for it. I also loved the romance itself. I didn't pick up done and dusted cuz I don't love brother's best friend books and sounds like that was the right call.
I definitely want to read the sequel
Belated congrats on leaving your job. 🎉
I left mine last year and, while the financial hit has been real, I am a thousand times happier for having done it. Being there was soul destroying, and you can only deal with that for so long!
Insurance was hands down the most stressful job I ever had. Glad you got out!!!
I DNF’d icebreaker back when it was on KU for a couple weeks lol
And congrats on your last day of work!!!! So happy for you!!!🎉
I'm glad i skipped Icebreaker and THANK YOU!!!
Congrats on leaving your job! I hope you can find something or somewhere you love! Loving this vlog format a lot!
"can kick rocks with no shoes on" hahaha
I’ve just left my job too! It wasn’t good for me and now Im caring for my mum until she recovers. But I get quality time with her and freedom from a toxic environment!!
Yes so excited for this reading vlog! So glad you are done with that job that sounded terrible
Congratulations on saying goodbye to a shitty job 😊 This was such a fun vlog and I absolutely have to pick up an Abby Jimenez book
Yes you do!!! And thank you ☺️
You think you want an older brother until they decide they wanna pretend they’re a WWE star and body slam you every chance they get.
Ummm rude! Why would they do that!?
AHHHH I FEEL SO BLESSED WITH THIS VIDEOOOOOOOO
a jess vlog??? what a treat 😄
🥰
“That’s a white!” 😂
Congrats on quitting your job and living a cute reading life! Enjoy! ❤
Jess, i would like to thank you for introducing me to Abby Jimenez, i read her book "part of your world" after watching your video and completed it under 24 hours, and it everything love hypothesis wasnt, not trying to hate but I've only started getting into reading books and it's like Abby read my mind to understand what i would like in a love story book ❤
Loved this vlog. I hope you do more. I have heard that alot about Done and Dusted. But Abby Jimenez! Not surprised. Girl can write some good stories.
More vlogs to come for sure!
Love and Other Words by Christina Lauren had me ugly crying. Must read😌
Sacramento Kings?! What?! Sac town!!!💜
That’s where my husband is from 💜
@@JessOwens woot woot!
you have to read the gravity of us in that brittainy cherry series. it is beautiful and has a dad taking care of a baby
Ok, enough said. I will be reading that ASAPtually
I adore you!!! Thank you for this!!!
It’s so comforting so see other folks masking in stores! Over an hour!! Imma get to eat my snacks and enjoy!
A mask is a must!! I don't understand how people are so comfortable without one
Masks are a must. The nasty people are still out there. And hand sanitizer is a must.
Okay romance girlie❤ also was this protein coffee scene just for me? I’m gonna pretend it was 😂
Of course!
I hope you didn’t eat while reading Butcher & Blackbird. Just for the Summer is gorgeous. I loved the most out of the books you’ve read.
Not you being cat-fished by a romance book. 🤣
I felt bamboozled!
I missed this video when it came out! Omg congrats on quitting that job!!! 🥰🥰🥰
I never take the top book either! 😂
So happy to have a Jess vlog to watch!! ps. random, what color is the paint in your bedroom? Love it!
Omg THANK YOU bc I am obsessed. It’s Sea Salt by Sherwin Williams!
@@JessOwens Ahhhh - I wondered if it was that!! I have a sample quart of it and was trying to decide where to paint it. It looks amazing in your room!
I had to dnf Butcher and Blackbird too. Just ick to me!
💯
Have you heard of Pardon my Frenchie by Farrah Rochon? it comes out in June and it’s a light and fluffy romance and she has a french bulldog lol
Yess, I want to read that!
@@JessOwens I read an ARC and gave it 3.5 stars ((: it’s cute
If anyone ever spit anything in my mouth, we’re fighting. 🚩🚩🚩
No, he spit whiskey in her mouth?! 🤢 thanks, i will not be reading.
Like it ruuuuined it for me
52:05 is this a white?! Had me cackling
See, that first book was cute and then it was awful. 🤮
Started out so good and then …
Congrats on leaving your toxic job!
Thank youuuu!
