October 2012 Book Haul

Books mentioned in this video: 
- The Hallowed Ones by Laura Bickle
- Between by Jessica Warman
- The Eleventh Plague by Jeff Hirsch

Secret book hint: 
"From somewhere far below her, she heard noises. The scrape of boots, the distant sound of voices. A flickering lights brushed the wall ever so faintly, and she saw that she stood at the top of a great back well, a shaft of twenty feet across, plunging deep into the earth. Huge stones had been set into the curving walls as steps, circling down and down, dark as the steps to hell that Old Nan used to tell them of. And something was coming up out of the darkness, out of the bowels of the earth..."

September Book Haul

Yeah. I went a little crazy filming this video. This was the third try. Because I would get halfway through and realise that I had not one clue of what I was saying or trying to say or what I had actually said, etc. It was ridiculous.

But here's the video! I hope you guys like it. Working hard on keeping a semi-regular filming schedule in order to keep y'all happy :)

Books mentioned in this video:
- The Meaning of Night: A Confession by Michael Cox
- Downtown Owl by Chuck Klosterman
- The Cell's Design by Fazale Rana
- SECRET BOOK

I'm also continuing to read the LOTR series on the side, but won't be including those in the videos from now on. Until I finish them and then obviously they're going to get their own posts :)

August Book Haul

AUGUST BOOK HAUL! Finally! Haha, I'm so glad that I was able to get this out. I desperately wanted to do it earlier, but there was just no way that you guys would have been able to understand me with my swollen face. I still have all the stitches in my mouth until Monday, which is lame, but at least most of the swelling has gone down over the week.

Since my mom is visiting from England (my daddy is here too now!) I figured it would be fun to do the video with her, so I hope you guys enjoy it. I'll have her review the other book on this blog in a written post, and talk to my dad about the Tolkien stuff (which I realize I've been spelling it Tolkein which is wrong lol) and whether he wants to review.

Also, I'm going to start a new little series within the other videos that I'll announce in a video of it's own. It's not much, but it's a fun little addition that I think you guys will enjoy :) (It also enables me to add another book to each haul, hee hee).

Anyhoo! Yay for August! Hope you guys enjoy the review to come. Happy reading!

Currently: Editing & Surprise Project

Hey!

So I'm happy to say that my dental surgery is healing well. I can't wait for the stitches to come out and my lip to stop being swollen though! In the meantime, I'm finally editing the August Book Haul video today :) So that should be uploaded to YouTube by tomorrow. You should be excited, because I have a special guest (aka my mom) with me in the video. Thought it would be entertaining.

I also have a little side series that I'm going to start doing. I'll announce what that is in a separate video of it's own, but I'm kind of excited about it and it should be a fun little addition to my channel. I hope you guys like it!

August Update

Quick video to explain why my August Book Haul has yet to be filmed! I'm going to go to Barnes & Noble tomorrow to get the rest of the books in the LOTR trilogy and I've already started the Fellowship, so I've not stopped everything!

I filmed and uploaded this yesterday, but am posting it today, so I've already had the surgery. The pain isn't so bad now that I've discovered that my body doesn't really do well with any painkillers besides Ibu Profen, but the swelling is worse today than it was yesterday. As long as it goes down today and tomorrow, I should be able to film the video this week! Hooray!

My random favourites post will be up this afternoon though, so keep an eye out! Again, apologies for the delay in my August book haul video :(
