[Music] 1 second one second sorry sorry let me just turn off my ambient rainstorm sounds and make it quiet enough in my brain to sleep why hello there good morning what is going on I don't know what's going on because if you can tell from talking to me right now I'm like a little bit awake why what is that noise outside is that a helicopter going by I woke up like awake and somewhat ready to do this which could be two things it could either be like an omen that like things are going to turn around it's going to go badly or it could be a really good sign we are once again going to be attempting to read for 24 hours straight caveat I think I will not do that confusing I know I get it like I'm going to I'm going to read as much as I freaking can from right now but then when I get tired and I have like one brain cell rattling around up there like last time we got to a point that I was just looking at the clock I don't want to do that again I want to like actually read for the 24 hours so if I get really tired we're going to pause the clock and going to go to bed and we will resume tomorrow still going to push myself and try and go as hard as I can today and read as much as I can today honestly maybe we'll make it like now I'm lying to you and myself we'll see don't ask me why we're doing this again I don't have a great answer for you I really I don't I don't even have a good one maybe I'm just toas aiss it feels like that sometimes no honestly the only reason that we are thinking about doing not even thinking you set your Al babe you're up you're filming you're doing it is that there are so many books on my physical TBR that I want to have gotten to I want to read and for some reason my little brain was like well if you're reading for 24 hours you have to get to at least a couple of them so here we are we are waiting for 24 hours how many times am I going to say 24 hours in this take a shot every time I say 24 hours actually don't because you might be hospitalized soon good goodness it is 6:00 in the morning we're about to start the alarm we were going to read for 24 hours straight I think I'm going to start with this summer will be different by Carly Fortune I read maybe at the lake in a day last year it was like the first book I ever read in a day I sat down with the attention that I was like I want to read a book in a day never done that did I love it no did I like it not really at the moment I probably gave it a four stars which is very generous of me if I thought about it now that book was like a three star 2.5 three star I definitely rated it higher back then because if you think I'm a generous Raider now you should have seen me a year ago I honestly didn't think I would pick up her release this year but it's actually baked in PEI which is where I spent Summers with my family and have since I was little and the girls from Toronto which is where I'm from I never have read a book with Pei as a backdrop Pei is literally my favorite place in the entire world it's like the coastal Beach place in Canada at least for me it's beautiful it's amazing and I think it would be a beautiful backdrop for a book and I've never really seen one based there a lot of people love kly fortune books so maybe it's going to surprise me it's 5:59 I have to start in 1 minute and just like that we are officially going to start our alarm and we're going to read for 24 hours straight starting out let's get into it [Music] d [Music] hello hi I'm reading a book that's based in PEI and it's making me emotional oh really Carly Fortune the girl is from Toronto but she spend summers in PEI and it's like in its post hurricane really yeah maybe I should read I know I'm going to bring it they've talked about everything when she was flying into the Charlotte Town airport she had a really good quote Yeah I've always liked flying into Charlotte Town you exit the plane right onto the tarmac which used to make me feel like a celebrity the airport itself is teeny tiny there's one bagage Carousel and your suitcase is in your hand within 15 minutes of setting foot on Pei soil so I head straight for the cow's creamy cow statue to wait for my luggage the cow is life-sized and cartoony black and white with a pink snout and it always makes me smile but it's nowhere to be seen can I help you find something sweetheart Islanders truly are the nicest human no but thank you I just noticed the cow is gone it's a shame isn't it Renovations I miss woi too I didn't know he had a name yeah woi cowi on Pei we head to the beach so we can drink in the maritime air neither of us have been here since the hurricane when teacup Rock disappeared into the Gulf a h yeah oh wow so definitely read it the main character lives on Queen Street East like right beside where I live I know driving in from the airport and passing signs for like Hunter River and stuff oh wait yeah stay with us I know [Music] [Applause] [Music] it is currently 10:30 in the morning which means I've been reading for 4 and 1/2 hours and do I have much to show for it honestly not really not a ton I'm kind of distracted the book is okay it's fine the thing that I am enjoying about it and loving about it so much is the way that she's describing Pei she's describing Pei exactly how I feel about Pei which just like is making me emotional I have called my mom like at least two or three times to read her things that like have legitimately made me emotional we're following Lucy Bridget and Felix Lucy and Bridget are best friends they have an apartment together in Toronto and Bridget's family and her brother Felix are from Pei so while Lucy isn't very close to their family every single year at least once a year she goes to stay Pei with Bridget's family for the week and the book starts like 5 years ago she has a one night stand with a guy that she meets like super randomly in a restaurant her first a Pei when Brig is supposed to come the next day but it turns out the guy that she had that one night stand with is in fact her best friend's brother so her best friend can never know they have this like immediate spark between them it is dual timeline which if you know anything about me I can't get behind dual timeline I can't I never connect to the stories I feel like when I'm switching back and forth between timelines I'm like this is a moment that I can pick up my phone and clearly I've done that because it's been 4 and a half hours and I'm only 150 pages in it's good it's fine the thing that I'm enjoying the most and like what most of these annotations are for the most part are Pei references like the way that she describes Pei is exactly how Pei feels for me I have spent a little bit at least of every single summer there since I was born my mom is from East Coast we have a cottage out there and I just like the family memories and the way that like Pi holds this like very beautiful larger than life story for me like it just is so idealistic in my head because I went as a kid and I still love going there like it's just it's my favorite favorite place truly in Canada some of my favorite memories even just like down to the teeny tiny things like restaurants and little towns that are actually there it's just like it's making me emotional the amount of times that I've called my parents I've been like Dad they mention your a restaurant like stupid but for some reason I feel connected to it I feel a lot more connected to the characters this time around the Dual timeline not my favorite thing ever it's okay we'll see where it goes I'm way more connected to this than I was to Mimi at the lake which was also dual timeline I think I didn't connect to Mimi at the lake because she had a boyfriend and it was just like kind of felt unnecessary to the story like you wrote it you could have just not done that it's very typical light fluffy small town romance Vib it's not my favorite thing ever however the pi references are my favorite thing ever and I've definitely cried a couple times and I don't know if that's because of this book or because I'm extremely tired it really could truly be either we like never get tropical storms or hurricanes in Canada but 2 years ago we got a really bad hurricane that hit Pei honestly pretty hard and I didn't think it was going to be in this book but it really is in this book like this takes place now and it's like the actual hurricane that hit and the part that I'm in right now we are in a past timeline and like the storm is about to hit and she's like trying to stay in contact with people and it's making me so emotional because we never get storms like that in Canada ever and I remember talking to my parents the day that it was going to hit and it was going to be so much bigger than we thought and like I knew I was going to lose contact with them it did change the way the looks in a lot of ways like it looks like a completely different Island there's so many things Pei that are like so steadfastly Pei that aren't there anymore and like the beaches look so different because of the storm I just remember being so terrified not being able to get in contact with my parents the very last thing that they sent me was the ocean coming up like basically to our patio and that was the last thing I heard from them until the storm cleared which is something like you just never expect to happen in Eastern Canada the exact same storm in the exact same places and Pi is so small so like I know all the places she's talking about now that I'm talking about it like I kind of care about them we'll see we'll see what happens when I get to the end which hopefully will be sooner than 4 hours from now because I just need to buckle down and read it [Music] it is like 2:00 p.m. now so this feels like a timely decision I feel like I kind of have a routine when it comes to filming these videos now I read one book and then I take chance on like a really good long walk and then I come back and I start the second book that's kind of The Vibes that I've been in I did come home and just stare at a wall for a little bit you know cuz sometimes sometimes you need that I'm definitely not as like mentally into this challenge as I tend to be I think it's because I told myself that I was going to let myself go to bed and I'm also not being as hard on myself about how much I actually can read I'm trying to do it like in an enjoyable way what a novel [ __ ] concept I do want to call this just for the summer I wish I just read just for the summer for the first time this summer will be different one book down eight hours down honestly it surprises me how much I can read in 24 hours when I like sit down and do it I feel like sometimes I can't get through a book in like 5 days and then I do this and I'm like what why a year ago Maddie if you told a year ago Maddie that it's 2: p.m. in the afternoon and she already read an entire book she would be shocked these videos are always so shocking to me I'm going to leave my full ratings reviews all of that for the very end of the video because a I feel like I kind of need time to like sit on them and think on them because when I finish a book I'm always like I want to rate it high but then when I think on it I'm like maybe it's not maybe it's not a five star this isn't a five star I know that right now and also like for time sake so that I'm actually reading the 24 hours and not just like yapping to you which I would do the whole time realistically I think this hit the way that it did and was like so emotional and such an enjoyable reading experience for me because I connected to it so much like I don't know how many times I can go on the tangent about how much I love Pei I've never read a book with the backdrop of pei and Not only was Pei the backdrop of this it felt like a character like it was such a driving force in this story I hate to say it my mood changed a little bit okay I went in thinking it was going to be fine like I think I went in with like little to expectations and then I was tired when I started it and I was like it's fine I I liked it I did I actually really liked like I felt connected to the characters I liked the story it had like a good amount of emotional depth it was convenient it was quick but like what do you want from a 300 page romance I know that like the average person who's reading a little 300 Page romance doesn't want their heart emotionally ripped out and stamped on every single time I get that that's a me problem that is a me problem I think for a standalone romance like typical romance that like you could just buy at a drugstore when you're going to the beach for the day this is perfect like I can imagine my mom picking this up and loving it she's read some of my more like deeper more emotional reads and been like that was a lot so I'm not I'm not going to read something like that again for a while I get it this is a good summer little read which I feel like is what kly Fortune's books are and what they're supposed to be I liked this mountain Lo's better than Mimi at the lake I felt like really like this book was written for me like the Pei aspect of it also like the female friendship in this I just read this you're kidding me how do I not remember their name Lucy they say it so many times in this book God the relationship between Lucy and Bridget in this like I just feel like I saw a lot of like myself in my life in this I live with my best friend in downtown Toronto where they live in the same neighborhood is area that the flower shop is in in this who also came with me to Pei to like see where I spent my Summers last year and had like the best time ever and fell in love with it the exact same way that Lucy fell in love with Pei when she went with her best friend her roommate also from Toronto and another thing in this is that she is a really close relationship with her aunt but they didn't live in the same city until she was older like she has her whole love for flowers and the flower shop that she runs in this because of her aunt and I have a very close relationship with my aunt also my mom's sister which is an aunt I just mean it's the on the mom's side in this as well and her aunt in this knows how much she loves pei and loves the people there and I Spent My Summer with my aunt who didn't live near me during the summer in PEI feels like perfect for me that being said I know that you're like Maddie should I read this and like I I can't give you a clear answer cuz this book feels like it was written for me everything about this like I would say like a good 60 okay 85% of the annotations in the first half are all just like Pei related little things that made me like I know where that is later on in the story I was more connected to them I don't know how much you would like I don't know I feel like I can't tell you how much the average person or like even myself would have liked it if there wasn't for the PE of it and like how connected I felt to the story it's good if you're looking for like a cutesy little typical romance there's nothing jaw-dropping in this it's kind of convenient things happen like quick I will say they do Communication in this fairly well I feel like miscommunication can be like the Catalyst and what makes a book bad and like when it mattered the communication was there I found in this if you're looking for a book like this like a little like read by the beach book this is great but like don't go looking for Beach read or for like something by Abby Jimenez and like pick this up but as a standalone romance I liked it and I am probably going to make Rachel read this this summer when I bring her back to Pei it is like 2: in the afternoon I haven't made great progress on the day truly have not made great progress however I feel like I have a decent amount of brain cells I'm about to consume some caffeine which I have not yet it might be why I'm talking at the snail of a pace good try at the speed of a snail I feel like I'm still like awake and aware enough to read something that like will take some brain power and the amount of you that are telling me to read this the amount of comments messages that I've gotten to read this Crimson moth I think it's time it's honestly not very long the font is like pretty damn big and it's like the perfect mini hardback I love reading in these mini hardbacks it's like the most amazing physical reading experience I have no idea what this is about I know it is a fantasy I know it's enemies to lovers which say less I'm in it I'm in there with you I'm excited to see what this is about I've heard such great things about it in Canada and I'm assuming the US I don't know where else it's called heartless Hunter but I know other places it's called Crimson moth but then the series is Crimson moth so it's Crimson moth book one but I'm taking your recommendations because you guys are always right you guys are 90% the time right you know my writing tastes very well and while I still have some brain cells kicking around up there may as well may as well try some fantasy [Music] I'm only on page literally 17 like literally just started it but I'm already like such a big fan of the writing in this I feel like so many books and so many authors they just like tell you things like info dump on you and like it can work out to be a really good beautiful emotional story it can still feel really beautifully written but the way that this writing is like this is my favorite type of writing like it's satisfying like instead of just like telling us what they want us to know the author is giving you like a little bit of like intellectual credit as a reader to be like you can assume some of these things it's dual POV and just when I thought this couldn't start any better we're getting dual POV we're getting dual POV 23 pages into this and I can already say the enemies to lovers is going to enemies to lovers this is going to be so good [Music] [Music] it is currently 6:45 p.m. almost 7:00 p.m. and I am 143 pages into the Crimson moth the heartless Hunter I don't know what to call it I keep calling it The Crimson moth because that's what I see on Tik Tok but it's called the heartless Hunter now hear me out in terms of being almost halfway through a second book in a day absolutely crazy reading so much should be so proud of myself but in terms of reading for 24 hours not much accomplished okay I'm already past the 12h hour mark and I am 1 and 1 half books in like really truly reading clearly at its snails pace I'm kind of semif focused on this I've taken a ton of breaks which I don't normally do when I'm filming these I'm treating this kind of more like laxidasical than I normally I've never used that word in my real life I don't know what just compelled me to use that word I have legitimately no idea I'm being like way more cash about this I'm being less mean to myself normally I'm like [ __ ] you are not reading fast enough get the [ __ ] up and read faster I think it's because I'm enjoying these books a lot and I'm letting myself take breaks which is making these books hit harder which realistically I'm doing the books better Justice at least that's what I'm telling myself I'm on chapter 20 of the Crimson moth Harless Hunter I don't know what I'm going to call it I haven't decided yet I mean obviously I should call it the Harless Hunter right cuz that's what's right there and absolutely none of you lied none of you lied this [ __ ] book I'm obsessed with this I have not read a fantasy in like a hot minute it feels like like I can't think of the last one that I read I've been reading a lot of ya True Crime a genre I didn't know I was going to love but the naturals and a good girls guide to murder is changing my mind it's my new favorite genre I have not been reading like nearly any fantasy I feel like fantasy is such a fall winter thing however I'd heard such good things about this I bought it and I am so glad that I did a lot of people are telling me that when they talk about en lovers this is what they were talking about and so far I totally and completely agree okay I feel like so much would have to change in the writing the storyline the plot the characters everything for me to give this lesson five stars because I'm enjoying it so much so far if you cannot tell from my annotations in here like I'm obsessed with not only the writing but the story and the Char characters which is so hard to do in fantasy because you can get a really really good well-written fantasy that's just like an okay fantasy plot or a really Amazing Fantasy plot that's just like okay written it is really hard to find like a combination of both and this this has that like it doesn't only have like character and banter plot well written it's like well constructed and the story is so well constructed and well put together we're in the point of views of both run and Gideon Gideon being the best hunter in the blood guard and then we have run who herself is a witch and is working as the Crimson moth to free other witches from getting caught by the blood guard and killed and Gideon is Alex who helps the Crimson moth best friend older brother so the connections they are running deep and basically run is thinking about marrying someone because she's in high society and she probably should and it would be good for her cover but she wants to marry someone that will help her as the Crimson moth and Gideon knowing that run is in the upper echelon of society and thinking that the Crimson moth might be in that same group of people and is tentative about run decides to court her as well and now they are both kind of going for each other and both trying to get information from each other and both questioning if the other person is trying to get information from them it's so good like it's really truly real enemies to lovers but I think the thing that makes this story so good is because we're getting pieces of their past slowly but surely in like a very good timely manner not in like a flashback energy but just in a like you're learning things about them as you go how you normally would in a book when you're in each chapter I feel like you flip-flop which side like normally I feel like in a fantasy it's like you have this main character who is a strong main character but they're on the for a society they're doing something that they probably shouldn't be doing and it's because someone's oppressed it's because of something and they're always right right and it's like you have this person who grew up like indoctrinated by this feeling so like that's why they're enemies however with this it doesn't really read like that like we have run who obviously is like don't kill witches let's not kill anybody but then you have Gideon and you're slowly unpacking why he ended up on the blood guard and why he thinks what he does about the witches and why he's okay with killing the witches and how he's so okay with what his job is and the trauma that he's gone through and when you're in either of their chapters you're like yeah when I'm in your head I understand why you think like that and I can justify it and it's not like a silly little enemies to lovers like I obviously don't know how it ends but I mean it's advertised everywhere as enemies to lovers so I'm assuming that's where we're going to go but the enemies to lovers isn't like oh my God I'm obsessed with her she's so pretty and oh my God he's so big and brooding and like wow he's so attractive but I hate him it is like yeah obviously we're attracted to each other why do I want to make her smile and she's like why do I feel Sparks when I'm with him like it's not just like surface level enemies to lovers like attracted to each other the story is so well constructed I'm so excited to see where it goes I am hoping I can hung her down and finish this sooner rather than later because my God I am reading at an absolute snails pace and I will say it is because I'm enjoying these books and giving them the life that they deserve and annotating as much as I want chapter 20 of the Crimson moth and I'm obsessed I'm sniffing we might get a five-star read I'm sniffing we might I am I'm really I'm thinking we might [Music] there are so many teeny tiny little things mentioned in this that like end up being tiny clues that you don't even realize like the story is so well constructed like everything about the magic system about the world and like teeny tiny things that are said like as passing comment you just read without even thinking about and then they come up later and you're like I remember something about that it's the best type of reading like it feels like you're solving things with them and because we're in both of their heads and we like kind of have an in on something it's hard to do like it's hard to plant little like tiny clues about things and then like let your reader figure things out which makes the reading experience so much more fun like instead of just being told things you're like kind of figuring things out and if you miss some of the clues whatever it doesn't really matter but it like makes the reading experience more fun [Music] [Music] oh hey there Hi I did stop the timer last night like right after midnight which was exactly when I finished the heartless Hunter I honestly kind of feel like I'm cheating I feel like I cheated this doesn't feel hard the other times that I've done this I've have been like literally grasping onto my life force did it take me exactly 12 goddamn hours to read this book it did if there's one thing that you guys know about me I feel like I convey it maybe I don't I'm really hard on myself when it comes talking to you guys like I want to do a really good job and I was really going into this like chill whatever I can read I can read and then I got like 12 hours in and I was 150 pages into this and I was like no you suck you suck and I do still kind of feel like I suck at this challenge this doesn't feel like a true hard 24-hour challenge like I don't feel as accomplished as I did at the end of the other ones but at the end of the other ones I would walk downstairs the next day like a zombie and Rachel would be talking to me and I would like not hear her so like mental healthwise this is probably better I do kind of feel like I'm failing you I'm going to be so for real this taking me 12 hours to get through feels wrong however no I don't I don't I want to say it's because it's really good and I was annotating a lot and the story was really good and I was really in it which is true it shouldn't have taken me 12 hours I took took a lot of breaks okay that being said it is the next day we have 6 hours left I finished the heartless Hunter last night I was going to give my opinions and thoughts like right away last night but I was conflicted on how I was feeling about it and I've slept on it and I think I think I have a good idea of how I feel about this I did love it I loved it it wasn't what I was expecting but like Not For Better or For Worse like it's just it just wasn't what I thought it was going to be I thought it was going to read I want to say more witchy but like it's really witchy that's not what I mean I went and watched like some other people's thoughts on it on Tik Tok before I went to bed last night because I was curious if my head was in the same place as other people people and I saw someone say this is like Bridgerton meets Salem Witch Trials I could not agree more it was so good but it was so not what I was expecting I think that's kind of what threw me for the loop it was so intriguing the whole Magic system in this world is these witches that have previously ruled the town these sister queens that have previously ruled the town this entire magic system is fueled by Blood so witches would essentially cut themselves use the blood and then they would get a silver Scar from using their blood to do magic and they would share blood with each other stronger spells needed fresher blood blood from other people and any blood that you used on a cut it would turn into a silver scar this world is really well built out and the storyline was really well built out I think what made this so good and so intriguing was that they both had very valid reasons traumas and experiences that put them on the path that they were on that ended up being the path that coincided with them together and when they were hearing each other's point of views they both could understand sympathy it was so well done the plot line was really complex but it it pulled forward you know when you read the first book in a fantasy series and you're like why did you mention that like it didn't end up mattering in the end it always ended up mattering and obviously we don't have all the answers because this is going to be a series but nothing feels like unfinished or untied like I feel like we got a lot of answers but we're still on a cliffhanger I I really enjoyed this story honestly I'm really glad that I stopped at the timer and I didn't go in to keep reading well I'm not I feel like I failed you guys in terms of the 24-hour video but I'm glad because I'm going in with like a better heads space and when I read next I feel like I'll have like more brain cells to process it I know I said I was going to leave full ratings and reviews to the end I obviously didn't really do that for this I'm going to think on it a little bit more it gave me five star feelings and while I'm thinking it's between a 4.75 and a five I can't figure out what I didn't like or what would dock that 0.25 of a star I'm going to think on it maybe my opinions will change when I thought on it more it's currently like a little bit past noon I'm about to restart the timer I'm going to go into good girl bad blood I listened to the good girl exide to murder I was just going to say podcast this is about a podcast I love that Audi book when I was on a road trip the other day and I listened to it on like 2.5 xped to get through it and I could finish on the road trip it was really good audio book was really good and I've also heard the audio book for this is really good which is the only reason and then I'm tentative to read it and not do the audio book maybe I'll do a little bit of both I discovered a newfound love for the ya two crime esque genre I'm loving this series so far I'm excited to see where it goes I did buy the entire box set of this it was almost $1 Canadian dollars for these three books stupid did I question buying it absolutely not because everything that's come out in this world they still have in hardback and the idea of these like miniature hardback Trilogy and then the reappearance of Rachel Price and five survive I did buy all of them I think this will like capture me enough that I can sit down for these 6 hours and just like try and Hammer through it and maybe not get distracted and then maybe at the end this I'll be a little bit less mad at myself for the breaks that I took yesterday I also don't think I'm going to annotate this one I don't annotate a lot of Thriller True Crime es books I'm not in it for the romance and that's usually what I'm annotating in other books it's like that was cute and I also didn't annotate the first one because I listened to it on audio it just feels like the right thing to have them all not be annotated maybe if I have like a really good theory about what's going to happen in this I'll write it in the margins and then we can we can converse if I was right it is 12:19 right now and I'm just going to start it again now and we're going to read for 6 hours and conclude our 24 I really I feel like I feel it you guys it feels not hard enough it feels too easy doesn't feel like much of a talent I don't know [Music] I'm like almost halfway into good girl bad blood like two fifths of the way through not exactly halfway getting to the halfway point I never thought that I would be a lover of this genre I never thought that I would ever pick up a good Girl's Guide to murder honestly the only reason I did was because I was going on a long drive and I had nothing queued up for audiobooks so I asked you guys and the very first one that I got was a good girl guide to murder and after reading the naturals and loving it I was like maybe I should just try it was not expecting to love it as much as I'm loving this series the whole series is basically following pip I love her I love her as a female main character I thought it was going to be more like dark Academia but ya vibe in the very first book she's working on her senior Capstone project her senior thesis essentially and she has always felt like this murder suicide that happened with students like 5 years ago was kind of fishy and she's decided that she's going to do her senior Capstone project trying to kind of uncover it she's always felt like the police didn't do enough work so she was like I'm I'm going to make them do work so the whole first book is following her trying to solve this Andy Bell and S sing case and going into the second book she's decided to make a podcast with all of her findings because she feels like still people aren't telling the full real story if you are a true crime podcast lover I feel like I'm recommending books to people who love True Crime podcast far too often recently but if you love True Crime podcast truly as much as I do you would love the natural series and I think you would love this there's so many like recordings in here of her doing the podcast and stuff it's tickling the True Crime podcast girly in me on the 6 year anniversary of when Sal and Andy went missing one of her child best friends brother has gone missing and while everything that happened in the last book has completely turned her life upside down and she swore she would never be a detective a teenage detective again one of her childhood friends has come to her and asked her to dust off her detective skills again to use her podcast and investigate to help find his brother they're such easy enjoyable reads like they're so easy to get lost in like there's just so many teeny tiny Clues here and there it's so easy to read and honestly the writing in this is very good like I find myself wishing that I was annotating this a couple of times I've highlighted a couple of quotes in here just the way that she writes is honestly really satisfying to read and alongside the story being like you trying to uncover things we're also getting instead of Parts days and the way that she has writing this one is like you kind of like you wake up with Pip and you go through her day with her everything that pertains to the story all the people that she's talking to all the interviews that she's doing and then you get like these lists at the end of the day that are kind of like these are my final thoughts on like what I'm thinking right now and like my to-do list and all the figures in here like anytime she talks about like a diagram or she draws a diagram of like where someone was at some time it's in here any court case pictures they're in here it feels like you're trying to solve it along Ong with her but it's also like an enjoyable Story the characters are likable but it's also like I don't want to say low stakes because it's not low stakes but like if it were an adult version of this I would probably be much more gory card to listen to but this is kind of like a softened version of true Prim podcast I'm into it a lot [Music] as much as I have been harping on the time in this video with literally one page left one page to spare the 24 hours went off so we' have officially read for 24 hours and I read almost exactly three books on the dot one page off couldn't have been more perfect timing feels like a very beautiful L I think I'm still going to say full thoughts and opinions for tomorrow cuz if I'm honest I still feel like I'm operating at One Singular brain cell I feel like I read this summer will be different 8 and 1 half years ago I loved this I liked it even better than a girls got to murder I didn't guess any of it there were lots of Clues and the world and the story is very big but I did not guess any of it and like it was emotional it made me cry at times I loved this story a lot I'm going to go have a nap and I will talk to you right now in a second it'll be a little bit for me but right now for you and we'll have all of the numbers and everything in okay we're back we're recovered we're like one full fully slept human once again in the end we ended up reading three books in pretty much totality I think I did mention it but I literally had one page left in the heartless Center when the timer went off so as much as it was kind of kind of messy and I was kind of like hard on myself about like timing and how much I was reading it timed up very well the numbers are in in total the time the 24-hour clock was running I read 1,133 pages which like I thought this would make me read more I think in the last one I read like 1250 and in the first one 11 something this might literally just be the number of pages I read in 24 hours sitting and reading I'm not the fastest reader on the planet never claimed to be although these videos do definitely make me feel like an exceptionally slow reader sometimes but I guess somewhere between 1100 and like 1300 is probably an accurate representation of how much I read and realistically pick up my phone and like do things if I were to sit down for 24 hours straight we started with this summer will be different by Carly Fortune which I'm kind of like 50/50 about because I went into it with little to no expectations like I truly thought it would be like a 2.5 three star read which is so low for me I never go below a three I never really go below a 3.5 I thought this was going to be like bad now did I like it so much because I felt so connected to it because I saw myself in it because I feel the very similar experiences in the exact same place maybe that might have been why take with that way you will I think I'm going to settle on giving it a four I like it so much more than I was expecting I've thought about it a little bit since putting it down but then since moving on a day or two past reading one or two things it's not stuck in my brain I don't remember a lot of it but I remember enjoying it do it that you will then the second book to a good girls guy to murder good girl bad blood I love this series There's Something About This ya True Crime esque genre that is just like e my heart out I love it so much I love every single second of it and I love the story line in this like I love that we're getting like a young High schooler playing detective and like the cases they're big and they come together in the end and they make sense I love like a good mystery like I don't necessarily want to be terrified and like I like a thriller here and there but I love a good mystery where like tons of things are stringing together you're finding things out here and there like it literally feels like you're following a case but you care so much about pip I loved it like it might be a five like it it might be a five I think it's a five I've thought about it a lot since then and I've almost picked up as good as dead the last book in the trilogy a couple of time like it's I think it's a five and then last but not least the heartless Hunter you're just going to scratch right now yeah know it's fine it's your world I'm really conflicted on this it's definitely somewhere between a 4.75 and a five I don't know why I would be docking it from a 4.75 to a five other than the fact that a five-star book is a five star feeling this is perfect Roman toy like it is truly so good honestly for most of the time that I was reading it I was like this is going to be a six star but there was something about the last little bit I feel like it wrapped up weird like really well like the storyline makes sense I'm excited for where we go in this series I don't think it's a true five six star first book in a series like I haven't thought about it a lot since like there's nothing that I can identify that that wasn't like perfect about it like it was really truly a really great Romany story I've never really read anything witchy and I loved the witchiness of this and like the fact that their whole Magic system is based off of blood and then those markings that were seen as like beautiful symbol of high status became why you were hunted everything about this world feels really big and I really liked it I feel very similarly about this as I did one dark window where like the way that the small town is described and like the fact that it's giving Bridgerton Vibes and it feels like old Towny I feel like I'm on top and I'm viewing like a small miniature City you know when like you were a kid and your parents would go like in see like a house development just for like the fun of it and they had like miniature trees where all the houses were going to be and it was like a miniature version of the subdivision that is how I see this book when I was reading it I don't know why it wouldn't be a five star other than the fact that it didn't give me five star feelings totally could have been the fact that I was tired I just realized I did these in the wrong order this I read this second and good girl bad blood third so it was good girl bad blood that I had one page left when I finished I think I'm going to settle on giving it a 4.75 right now I think I am like it it might be a five like it was the story was perfect I recommend this to literally anybody I just don't know if I it gave me five star feelings but it might have been that I was so tired I think 4.75 whatever I settle on will be on the screen right now cuz it had everything I wanted a five star Romany I just don't know if it was a five star apart from the fact that I literally forgot what order that I read these in 24 hours is up I feel like it went pretty well I feel like it was easier than it should have been like I feel like less accomplished as I do doing the like staying up all night 24-hour challenge but I also like was a functioning human the next day so give and take you can't win them all and I want to say that I'm never ever going to do this again but like but considering you're watching this right now my third one I'm probably lying let me know if any of these books on your guys' TBR or what you thought of them and let me know if you've read them if you think the 24-hour challenge like affected how I read them and how I rated them because I'm I this CL a 5 for some reason it just doesn't feel like everything about it was perfect I don't know and I'll see you in the next one love you bye [Music]
