don't be shy katie. we love your bookshelf reorganization moment in every video. just give it to us. maybe i need to reorganize mine. anyway, i can't explain how much i anticipated this specific reading vlog since your tbr video. i love this so so much
Katie, I'll have you know, you motivated me to reorganize my bookshelves, so now I have books all over my floor XD haha I love your videos
I wasn't crazy about Iron Flame. At least a quarter the book was Violet complaining about Xaden and their relationship, and another quarter was spent on telling us over and over about the chemistry between them
I agree the same fight with Violet and Xaden over and over was too much. I feel like I need more Dragon history and world building within the dragon dens. It’s so great I just need more.
I love watching creating spreads for reading journals.
At the moment I am 70% into Iron Flame and enjoying it so much and reading Belladonna. My next reads after those are Clockwork Princess and Powerless. So many great books coming out that it has been hard to keep up. Happy reading!
I love watching your videos. Sending much love from Germany. Currently reading and enjoying Iron Flame, Igot it for Christmas and I´m already on page 718/955. Probably gonna rate this book 5 stars. The german edition has a coloured map, and underneath the dust jacket it has a cool dragon face. Already loved Fourth Wing and A court of silver flames (Das Reich der sieben Höfe - Silbernes Feuer) this year. Wishing you a good start in the next year
I really liked fourth wing but I LOVED iron flame. I’m not a fantasy reader though. I’m a literary fiction and historical fiction fan. But I just love the action and deep thinking and details the author put into this series. I’m so happy to love a series!!! 🙌
Not gonna lie, I missed the fantasy book vlogs. I love all your vlogs, but the ones where you read fantasy books are just next level of magical and whimsical. Thank you for gracing us with these beautiful vlogs❤
I just finished Iron Flame and I have to say, that ending was PAINFUL!!!!! my heart never pounded so fast, i'm devastated.
The german version of Iron Flame is 960 pages 🙂 I‘m so scared
But I‘m really glad to see your video because your review is the first review of Iron Flame that is kind of „good“, I almost decided to not even read it at all but you made me rethink to at least try 🤠
I don’t know if I’m the only one that noticed this but I loved the music in this video hahah 😌🦇
Every one of her vids has S tier music.
I love when you organize your bookshelves it motivates me to do mine lol and I love your journal spread....such an inspiration.....I have 13 maybe 14 books to read by the end of the year and my new releases im gonna start in January that way I don't overload myself...already been in 4 slumps since August lol but thank you for another amazing video
Loved the video as always. I just finished 'A curse for true love' and it was great. Yess, I also understand the critiques but I love these characters so much. I just enjoyed my time. But like you said, now what? I kind of feel like starting all over again and going back to Caraval but I still have so many books on my TBR I can't justify it. 😅
I binged Iron Flame in 3 days and my thoughts exactly- too long, a lot of info dumping, and a slower pacing than Fourth Wing. I was OBSESSED with Fourth Wing but to me Iron Flame was just great not an obsession. So excited for the rest of the series and can’t stop thinking about it. Such a book hangover I haven’t picked anything else up since I’ve finished..
Oh oh. You're reading Iron Flame. I didn't finish it yet but I'm gonna pretend you didn't saya anything. Haha. But ohh I've been waiting for your videos. Kinda comforting. Just playing on the background while I did my chores. Love ya! Keep it up.
Your vlogs are always so comforting 💗💗🙌
I haven't read either of those books but I did start the Caraval trilogy recently so I can hopefully next year read the Once Upon a Broken Heart series because I've heard so many good things about it. I'm excited because today one of my anticipated releases should arrive at my house and I can read Vengeance of the Pirate Queen finally!!
That edition of If We Were Villains looks absolutely gorgeous ✨
a curse for true love was my favorite of the series! i just finished it and i enjoyed it way more than the first 2 which i thought were okay like 3 stars
i literally just reorganized my bookshelf omg 😭 i've been seeing the series for fourth wing and once upon a broken heart everywhere so i think i'm gonna head to my local barnes and pick them up this week
If you’re playing video games try Stardew Valley I love it and it’s so cozy you inherent a farm and you doing farming work and raise animals and there’s a town with villagers and you can make friends go on side quests for them and even get married and have children very fun
i’m waiting at my library for iron flame 🙈 i’m number 136 in line 😭 and they only have one copy right nowww ugh living through you rn
WE LOVE YOU KATIE
I’m starting to read Fourth Wing and I feel like it’s going to be super fun!
(Something much needed after reading pride and prejudice and animal farm in a row)
Rebecca yarros supports Israel and genocide, don’t support her.
Pride & Prejudice is A LOT more fun than Fourth Wing though
@@catIing what I mean is I want something super easy to read. Like a guilty pleasure of sorts
I'm hoping that my Iron flame book shows up tomorrow and after watching this vlog I'm so excited. I still have to reread Fourth wing though.
It feels like we had the opposite reactions to A curse for true love and Iron Flame hahah. ☺️😆 I was REALLY disappointed by ACFTL, felt like it went on for ages without anything happening and like the writing wasn't at all as good as the other books. But I loved Iron Flame haha!! It wasn't as good as the first but I really didn't feel like it was too long.
Very interesting! 🥰
I loved curse of true love so much!!
Omg Iron Flame! So many things happen, is not only the love story...it hits all emotions! The characters ♥️ I have 3 hours left, and I don't even know what to read after, cause my heart is like... So many emotions!
omg the way you cut the video to match the music when you were starting a curse for true love was soo good!
Have started Iron Flame - can’t wait to see what happens in the last hundred pages !
I NEED to know where you got those Twilight dust covers. I laughed so hard the first time I saw them but now I need them
I rated Iron Flame 4.5 stars. I enjoyed reading the sequel, and look forward to reading the following books in The Empyrean series!
Can't wait to read Iron Flame! Curious to see what you'll think about it.
all of your journal spreads are always so cute!!
Such a good reading vlog ✨ I’ve been saving this video for when I myself finish Iron Flame and now I could finally watch it. Totally with you regarding the writing in FW/IF, I see it for what it is and it doesn’t affect my enjoyment level but it really isn’t the best 🥲❣️
you remind me of daphne from bridgerton!
I haven't finished the video yet but loving the long vlogs.
i'm reading dreams lie beneath by rebecca ross right now!! its the perfect magical fantasy for this season
I’ve just started watching this video but I can’t continue without saying that you’re absolutely gorgeous in the intro! Just amazing! ❤ now I’ll continue watching, thank you, see you at the end ❤
47:46 I wouldn't be surprised if they make a book ONLY with the letters....
Amazing vid, like always. Also your shelves look amazing!!❤
To be honest I think Iron Flame was the right size. Maybe it was slow at moments, but I think it was needed. If it would've been more fast paced we would've missed some things. The downtime I think was cool because we were able to spend more time with the characters. For me Violet was plain annoying because as you said the fights were repetitive, I was always rolling my eyes when I was getting to those parts, but I think it also shows the age and the immaturity of the characters at that age... same goes with the cringey dialogue. This is how it is in your early 20's :))). When you are 30 or 40 and you look back you are like, man, I really had a good opinion about myself cuz I was both immature and cringe :))). Also, I think every bit of information in IF would help with the story in the next 3 books, so maybe the slow moments from now will be exactly what we need to understand what's gonna happen in the next books. Who knows... If you look at some of the things that were said in FW you'll see that it helped the story here. For example Xaden's signet. He talked about that one in the past, even in the 1st part of IF, Violet just didn't want to put the pieces together :)). Idk, these are my 2 cents on IF. I really loved it and I think the curse of the 2nd book did not happen here, thank everything that's holly.
I read A Curse for True Love the day it came out and gave it 4 stars. I got Iron Flame, but I probably won't read it until January.
dearest cassandra, imma need you to bring the dragon stickers back stat tysm
Babes if I didn't want to football punt my Cricut through the window everytime I tried to use it I would 😭💕
@@cassandralynnreads valid reason i supposeeeee🥲
Currently I am reading Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, But I cant wait to get these books they seem like interesting reads. Thanks for the video Katie.
gosh the journal looks gorgeous
ALWAYS LOVE your reading vlogs!! And also, you really look like Rory Gilmore. Beautiful! Happy holidays to you and your family, Katie. 😊
Fabulously insightful review as usual Found the first book quite brutal in parts ! Im looking forward to reading iron flame shortly. 🐉🎆
Um….right when I finished this video my hold of Iron Flame came through on Libby…….I’M SCARED! 😂
Katie what do you listen to while you’re reading? ❤️
I'm curious too. I happen to listen to George Winston. Would make a very interesting survey.
your hair looks so cute in the claw clip!!
Libby is a subscriber clearly 💀
I had the SAME EXACT thoughts during and after reading iron flame 🤣
The way I watched all of this and didn’t even realize an hour passed…
Hi Katie, I've just started your vid but I thought I should say that whenever you have moments where the music takes over it's like 50-100% louder than your talking parts in your vids. I really love watching your videos but I always have to crank the volume down then back up during those moments. :(
Love the earrings!! 🤩⚔😍
we need more game reviews!!
I was secretly psyched when she mentioned being into games.
I agree, men in fantasy books get away with more things than men in normal romance books do 😶😂
Ik the B&N edition is in Jack's POV but what's the waterstones version??? 📖📚
Thank God, I’m so anxious and now I can sit and watch you for an hour to calm myself down. ❤
I thank the book overlords whenever I find a channel that is into fantasy, manga, and video games lmao
I am not going to read Iron Flame right now since I actually didn’t like Fourth Wing that much. But I still want to see if maybe I can try again!
Currently reading starling house, so into this book, also trying to get thru empire of the vampire not so inspired on that one and waiting for my fourth wing to come in and see what I think of this series 📚🧛🌙🐺
22:04 where do you get your ideas for these spreads? They’re so pretty!
I'm about to begin the audiobook of Iron Flame. I wasn't expecting my library hold to be available this soon, so I'm really excited. I just finished Fourth Wing last week, so everything is still fresh in my mind.
Your sweater!!
Loved this vlog your fourth wing vlog is my fav❤❤❤🎉
Hollow Knight is soo cute! I like to play it as well 😊
I felt the same about A Curse For True Love tbh. I enjoyed it but the plot... 😅
Okay just started the video but the way I gasped when you said Hollow Knight omg, that's one of my favorite games of all time and it's amazing. Now you can join the rest of us in the hell that is waiting for the sequel 🙃Also if you like that one, would highly recommend checking out the Ori games (Ori and the Blind Forest is the first one), it's much smaller scale but has a lot of similar elements (not sure if it's on Switch though).
I'm seriously considering dnfing spy family too. It's just not as good anymore which is honestly heartbreaking. 😢 By the way, have you read Swordheart by T. Kingfisher? If you haven't, I think you'd like it, it's definitely your vibe.
Haven't read Iron Flame (or Fourth Wing) yet, but I have the same issue with needing the tension/angst in romantic relationships. Like, when Bones and Seeley got together in the TV show Bones, the spark disappeared for me. I need the angst.
Omg Hollow Knight !! Genuinely one of the best games out there. ♥
I love Hollow Knight and you are right. I preordered my copy of Iron Flame from Barnes and I still don't have it!
You have literally put into words EXACTLY how I feel about iron flame.
i gave 3 stars to a curse for true love, i wasn't a super fan of it unfortunatelly! i loved the second book in the trilogy but this one was SOOOO slow and nothing happened really, and stephanie used de majority of the book to talk about apollo (no one cares about him like)
i absolutely love your city of forks sweater!! where did you get it from?
Since you like reading and you just got a switch you should get the game lost words beyond the page
How are you liking Hollow Knight? It was ported to xbox game pass some time ago. While ive never been into platformers, if you really think it's worth it, i just might give it a dl.
where is your sweater from? it looks so cozy 🥺
The name of the Fourth Wing series is called The Empyrean
Where did you get your bookshelf lights? 🤩✨They look stunning✨
Great vlog love the journal set up as well. 🎃🍂🍁🦇📚☕🦃🥧🍎
aaahhhh I am so happy you got a Switch. What games are you playing? If you need more cozy gaming recommendations I got you hehe
Katie ciao ! sono sempre io Laura dall'Italia Da noi è appena uscito Fourt Wingh e l'ho amato ho dato 5 stelline non vedo l'ora che arrivi anche il secondo per leggerlo e fare un mia recensione e dirti come l'ho trovato. Per il resto un Blog bellissimo super rilassante
Hello Katie !!! Your content is my highlight of my week !
I want to read OUABH trilogy ! Did you read caraval series before ?
I have fourth Wings in my TBR. I want to read it so far but I am scared to not like it ! I have to decrease my expectations 😅 !
hi! i recommend reading the caraval trilogy first; because if you read OUABH first, it’ll spoil a good amount of caraval
I definitely preferred fourth wing to iron flame. Iron flame was harder to read
Off topic - your earrings! Where are they from?? 😍🫶🏽
what do you mean Once Upon a Broken Heart books have different epilogues in the USA and in the UK/European versions?😭😭
CR: Then she was gone by Lisa Jewell 🩶📖
i love your sword earrings!! where did you get them??
I’m trying so hard to get through iron flame rn and the fact that I’m watching this and not reading it says so much like I am so bored reading it
Loved iron flame,gave it five star,set the bar heven higher for the third book
do we have to read the caraval series first?? i have only read caraval but idk if it’s my vibe but i really want to read once upon a broken heart
no you don’t need to read caraval first; if you start with ouabh, caraval is already basically spoiled in the series. but if you’d like more context on jacks’s character and development, read the caraval trilogy first. for me personally, i read the ouah and tbona before the caraval trilogy and preferred it that way because jacks is in both but is introduce in the second book of caraval: legendary. i like getting into caraval knowing i’d meet jacks because i love him as a character. caraval is more plot based while ouabh is character based but ofc it has plot. i also enjoyed the ouabh trilogy more than caraval.
I agree 1000000000% with every thought you had about Iron Flame.
what black pen are you using to annotate?
I searched it up and it's the Empyrean series
yay switch girlies!!!!!
Sigh…iron flame after everyone by now knows how the author is all about supporting a genocide?? Cmon … pls let’s all do better. No book is worth it :(
Iron flame would’ve been wayyyy better k probably would’ve made more sense if she did a dual POV & I really hope she switches over to a dual POV Xaden & Sgaeyl’s POV/dialogue would’ve been & would be very beneficial.
