Letterbox Love (9) My First Vlog!


Letterbox Love is a new meme hosted by Lynsey @ Narratively Speaking for UK based book bloggers to showcase the books that they’ve received each week.

These are the books I received over the past two weeks, there are quite a lot of them so I decided now would be a good time to do my very first vlog so I could talk about them a little bit more, I know the quality's not very good but bare with me as I'm still learning and getting the hang of this vlogging thing! I'd love to know whether you prefer a vlog or my usual pictures so let me know! :)

  3. I didn't realise that they had changed the title to Before I Die to Now Is Good, when I was scrolling down through your list I actually thought it was a new one from her and may have got a bit excited! Oh well at least when I pick it up, it will have a new cover :) Again you received some amazing books this week, Such a Rush and From What I remember being two of the ones that I can't wait to get stuck into either! Also This is not a Test was my first Courtney Summers book, so seeing as I loved it so much I can't wait to get stuck into the others! Hope you enjoy all your books! :)

    1. Yeah the movie people changed the title to Now is Good so it's being re-published as that as well. I'm so excited to read them and if you get to them before me you'll have to let me know what you think! I hope you enjoy Courtney's other books I'd recommend starting with Some Girls Are as that's my favourite! She's a brilliant writer. :)

  5. Looks like you got quite a few awesome titles this week. I've got to read Envy myself which I'm hoping is just as wicked as Fury was. Happy reading!

  8. Well, I've added two more books to my wishlist from your vlog, thanks! I LOVE your first video, it's so nice hearing you talk about the books you've got... You're a natural in front of the camera, you should make lots more! Also, the giraffe photo really made me smile. :D

    I got TIME BETWEEN US and NOW IS GOOD too (I never read BEFORE I DIE so it's new to me!) and your description made me push TIME BETWEEN US up Mount TBR a bit... I really need to look more closely at these things, I just shoved it onto the nearest book pile at the end of a busy day and never really looked to see what it was about! *facepalm*

    1. Oooh which two? *curious* Thanks Ellie *blushes* I really enjoyed making this one so I'm hoping to do some more in the future. Glad to hear Time Between Us is higher on your TBR, I'm really looking forward to it!

  9. I loved the vlog and am hoping you'll continue doing them! I also got Spellbound this week and yesterday ordered myself some books, one of which was This Is Not A Test, I also have Envy pre-ordered as Fury was one of my fave books last year but just as you will have to with Starcrossed I am going to have to reread Fury as my memory is so bad, I read so many books that by the time the sequels come around I can't remember the first book. I am really looking forward to when you review From What I Remember, hope it lives up to your expectations.

I hope you enjoy Spellbound, This is Not a Test and Envy! I really hope From What I Remember lives up to expectations too I'm hoping to read it soon :)

  10. Before I Die by Jenny Downham is one of the most emotional books I've ever read! I adored it. I think I read it in 2009, or something crazy like that, so it's been a while.
    I think I'm going to have to read it again before the movie comes out (which looks amazing - and yes, watching the trailer made me cry ... again!).

    I really want This is Not a Test. I think I'm going to have to pick it up really soon!

    1. The movie does look good! Will definitely be giving it a watch. Have you read her other book You Against Me? It's really fantastic! This is Not a Test is amazing, definitely one I'd recommend picking up!
