    Colleen Hoover rolling a D20 for character trauma is the most accurate statement I've heard to describe her writing
  • Dude i wouldn't care if your wrap up videos were an hour long haha - I love getting your insights on books and your videos are always a good time ✨
  • @dawnslight98
    I need a book club full of other people who were poorly socialized as children. I keep getting horrified looks when I break out my excel sheet.....
  • @ursalemii
    you said u needed the validation so here you go: you're literally my favourite booktuber and also i love your earrings <3
  • @klatskyn
    Hahahaha, as a Secret History super fan who has never read most of the classics, I'm sorry people commented that to you. I'm amazed how many people miss the point of the book completely, while you actually felt it was made too clear. I also sort of understand why it might not work for everyone. I'm obsessed with Donna Tartt's writing; she just vibes with my generally melancholic, lonely, overthinking, dramatic vibes so the parts other people feel drag, to me just feed into everything I love. It's my favourite book, but I'm hardly going to come onto your channel and insult you if it isn't for you. You are highly intelligent and hilarious, even though some of our book tastes are very different. Keep on!
  • ah yes, watching a new video of lexi sipping hot orange and ginger flavored tea instead of studying maths, my ideal of a monday evening
  • @AntoH98
    Yeees please do a video of the twisted love sequels. I loved the first video ❤
  • @NellyVilla09
    YES YES YES to the book recap of the twisted series! I haven’t read any of the books but you explain so thoroughly that I feel like I have. That video singlehandedly made you one of my fave booktubers 😮‍💨🤌
  • @jessrules03
    Legit don’t even know how you popped up on my YouTube page, but I’m so glad you did. you are exactly like me when I’m reading my books and it’s really relatable and cozy.
  • @emilymazz5787
    It’s so crazy impressive that you’ve read so many physical books! Without my audiobooks I would never get to read as many books per month as I do. Love the video as usual! ❤️
  • @Juliaplumadoree
    Idk if this makes sense but how fast you speak/ go over a books rating is just chef kiss I don’t get bored or distracted, I can watch the entire video easily without losing my tiny attention span :)
  • @salatkiel
    My ADHD brain LOVES your takes and the speed this video is naturally in. I had to turn off my usual 1.5/2x speed. Also, thank you for the recommendations! I started the magic series by Schwab but I kinda want the trashy thriller more rn. 😊
  • @laurendimke967
    Bro when you said that you have a curiosity to see what's popular even if you're not like gonna have a good time or may not like it - like i felt that. so many mid debuts and series that blow up online and i waste my time 😭😭
  • @dqndicore
    I’m trying to get back into reading because I’ve been in a stump and these videos are really helping me build a TBR. You’re honestly the only person I trust rn because booktok seems to be obsessed with abusive men lmao
  • @emilylauinger79
    Twisted Lies (Book #4 of Twisted series) starts with a content warning that says the words "morally gray alpha hero" if you need a push.
  • as an adhd person i FELT the not knowing how long things take. ask me about energy level, not time approximate, like come ON love the vibes per always
  • @kelseylynn2797
    You are actively the highlight of my day/week/month whenever a new video drops, or even if I'm just rewatching your older videos for the 11th time (always hits just as hard as the first time). Unless making long videos stresses YOU out, don't sweat it. We absolutely love them.
  • @ollieanders34
    yes yes yes to anything and everything you create. hour long, 2 hours long, however long i’m here for it all. your insights are well spoken and well understood to my brain
  • @LouandBoo
    I can’t with you, you are just the most naturally charismatic and hilarious gal 😂 you could sit there and talk about anything and I would listen and laugh
