    Maya, I just discovered your chanel (today), and you`ve made my day. Your vlogs are so nice, I love reading and I'm also a slow reader, and it is so cool to see how you challenge yourself, 2 books in a week - that`s huge!!! And also I like how cozy your videos are. I have a lot to say, but I'll just say that from now days when you upload a new video are going to be days that I'm looking forward to! Thank you!

    theres a way to calculate reading speed (in pages) but I don't remember ittt
    the tik tok hours are what kills me too. I always think I'm on for like 15 mins but it was actually 3-5 hours or more
    edit: I don't have the money to buy the windy series books :(

    Omgeeeee The Boys of Tomen will DESTROY YOU!!! I would LOVE to see you read that! It is HEAVY! The Deal got me back into reading after a 10 year hiatus! I’ve read Magnolia Park and loved it! I wish you had read Part Of your world” first… it gives you the full feeling of found family with Yours Truly! I loved this video.

    Currently reading book 5 in the Plated Prisoner series. Give me a Slade all dsy everyday. The last sports romance book i read was Icebreaker and i loved it, but it's not wattpad romance. More spicy and no drama. I loved the way the mains interacted. And how beneficial having a psychiatrist was for them.

  • @days_of_rose
    @days_of_rose 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Omg read the Eden series - love love love. Small town, and each book follows a sibling. It’s similar to the chestnut spring series but I preferred the tropes and writing.

    I'm reading the mistake by Elle Kennedy (off campus series book 2) And playing for keeps by Kendall Ryan book one in her hot jocks series. I typed in sports romance and amazon and found a lot of good ones. So that is what I recommend for getting into sports romance. The field party series by Abby Glines is also good and just anything by her in general she is my all time favorite author.

    For romance suggestions I’d recommend Christina C Jones. I love the Serendipitous Love series (they are not rom-com though not on the super angsty scale); there is Ante Up (and the High Stakes series, which are more angsty) and Wonder which is a dystopian retelling of Alice in Wonderland. ❤️.
