🪴ftc disclaimer: thank you so much to hunt a killer for sponsoring today's video!
I'm dying at you saying: "saving those, cause it's money!" I can't wait for the buddy read!!
i meaaaaan👀😂 save the COINNNN lololol
it was so heartwarming to see you get happy and excited every time you opened a box... you ARE deserving of all this love and appreciation! feliz cumpleañitos (atrasado), te adoramos con el alma.
porque me hacen lloraaaaar?! los adoro demasiado a todos💖
I live in Panama and I'm a junior in high school,we had to read Cien años de Soledad this year but I just couldn't read it, but looking at that version makes me want to do it
i've definitely been guilty of eyeing books i haven't enjoyed just cause they're pretty😂
im a Nieves as well but my family is in Mexico!
🎂 it's late but hbd mel! i've been w/ ur channel since u had 10,000 subscribers.. i just love your videos, and your existence in this community is definitely making my life and everyone else's lives better
thank u so much and we hope the best for you! : ))
not you making me CRYYYY😭 y'all are the best frfr, lysm💖
This video is full of wholesome vibes we love to see it 🖤
🥺💖
wait what, i started following you on your previous birthday haul, IT'S BEEN A YEAR? HAPPY BIRTHDAY. YOU DESERVE EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD.
right?! it feels a bit unbelievable that it's been a year😭 but thank you so much love, you're the sweetest!💖
i would recommend reading the song of achilles, i know its really popular but its popular for a reason, i absolutley loved it!
Happy belated birthday ! 🥳
Seeing you so spoiled with gifts and so happy is so heartwarming and it made my night 💕
I almost teared up when you got A Winter's Promise. Not sure you're going to like it, but the fact that that book means so much to me and the fact that it has reached people all around the world makes me so so so happy.
why are y'all the best people in the world?! this just made me emo, lysm💖
PLEASE do a video comparing the Iliad and the Song of Achilles!!
😏😏😏
I cannot recommend the Songs of Achilles audiobook enough. I fell in love with Patroclus. I highly recommend!
thank goodness i have it savedddd🥺
As someone else that had to read it in school I have to say that I absolutely loved it and my class got to act it out and that made me love it even more. I think you’ll love it!
uhh Mel let's have a Sudoku sprint session soon! ♥ LOL it's about damn time!🎂
Absolutely yes!! 😌
Yesssss I second this notion
OMG YESSS!!! so late to this, but i'm DOWN💖
🎂 just joined the citadel because I have always loved your positive vibe and your energy just draws me back to why I love reading
this means the world!! lysm💖
THAT JANE EYRE COVER IS SO SO NICE ❤ Also, happy belated birthday! Hope you had a great one!
isn't it? i had never see it before and then i fell in love🤩 thank you love💖
we love watching these!! we just did one and omg we spent over $400 it was crazy. Happy birthday
🎂You're a joy to watch, Mel!🎂 I will say that I read the crucible play and watch the movie in school and I really enjoyed it! I found it so funny in an unbelievable, how-on-earth-do-these-people-not-see-anything-wrong-with-this sort of way. I hope you'll enjoy it too!☺
i'm excited to read itttt🤩
The mirror visitor series is sooo good. I’m on the third book and while I will say it’s definitely not a lighthearted series, it’s beautifully written and very immersive 💕 good luck
Book Hauls are so soothing. Also Mel.... You need to read Robin Hobb. You gonna love that entire universe. It's so so so good.
i can't wait to start my robin hobb journey next year!! i've heard amazing things🤩
This video just came out as I needed a nice haul video 😩🙌
i love being a mind reader😏
The FIfth Season - The Broken Earth Trillogy is amazing. Incredible writing. Best books I've read in a while.
oooo yesss!!! i can't wait to get to them soon💖
I hope that you had an amazing birthday Mel.. Love you're channel.
thank you love🥺💖
Gotta say seeing that version of Plain Bad Heroines headed right over to book depository in the middle of your video🙈😁😁😁🎂 Hope you had an amazing Birthday Mel thanks for all the hard work you put into your channel every video you put out has been so entertaining you deserve the best! 🥳🎉🎂🥳

MEL AND I HAVE THE SAME BIRTHDAY! IM SHOOK
Happy belated birthday 🥳 ❤️
💖💖💖
I might be one of those kids here in the U.S. that actually kind of likedddd some of the assigned readings we had in school????????? Like... the Crucible and teh Great Gatsby hit different for me in sophomore year... but like it was kid of a phase for me LMAO -- hope you had a wonderful birthday! Love love love you
love you back!!!💖💖💖
Omg i love all the happiness around in this video and also cannot wait to hear your opinion on wuthering heights 😍❤️
I would suggest reading the history of how the crucible came about. It was written during the McCarthy era and meant to show the folky of blacklisting for socialism. It adds a depth to the story.
will definitely note this!! thank you so much💖
Hope you had an amazing birthday! I just got wuthering heights the other day because ,it was a beautiful purple fabric hardback. Looking forward to reading it and hearing you review too. Really love your channel and all the contact you create. I’ve only found you in the last couple months but has helped me so much on bad days.
not you making me emo😭 thank you so much love💖
the song of achilles is the best book i’ve ever read
👀🤭😏
I would love to see your reaction with The Song of Achilles because I personally hated it. Please don’t come at me anyone😅
🎂 hope you had a great birthday mel!

You mentioned you wanted to get into poetry. I’ve only started dipping my toe in poetry but I recommend Nikita Gill as a modern intro author. She has one book of poems based on Greek mythology (Great Goddesses: Life Lessons from Myths and Monsters) which I am in love with! She also has a book of poems based on fairytales (Fierce Fairytales: Poems and Stories to Stir Your Soul).
Note that I am a sucker for anything Greek mythology or fairytale related so my recommendation may not be for everyone.
Also, Happy Belated Birthday!
Thank you sm for this comment. Even tough it wasn‘t meant for me you informed me about these cool books and I will buy them imediatly. Thanks!
omg this is everything, thank you so much!!💖
🎂
I can finally tell my husband why you own a Minnesota sweater 😂😂 & you’re so welcome!!!

Can you please explain to me the reason as I’m a new watcher and I’m also from Minnesota
My English class loved The Crucible 😂😂😂 I was Reverend Parris 🤠
this is good to hear!! it seems that people in the comments have had good experiences so that gives me some hope😂
YOU LOOK SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!
