  • My goodness, could you possibly be any cuter? Hehe! I would totally watch a 10 minute video of you just rambling about the setting and the weather, especially if it had more of those gorgeous giggles like you did. I have been trying to get into reading and still I haven't read enough. What must I do? I don't even belong as a subscriber :(

  • I have to say u reviewing books I love it ur my first book reviewer on you tube

  • Rue's tune was the awesome part of the trailer

    

  • The Perks Of Being A Wallflower is amazing! One of my top favorite reads of all time! I Can't wait to see what you think of it! Seems like a pretty good selection you have! -marissa

  • Oh! And I LOVED the teaser trailer! It was so awesome! I want more!

  • Those are some awesome books! I've only read Speak, but I'm interested to hear what you have to say about the others.

    That's also so cool of you to shout out to other channels! Have you ever checked out KatesBookClub? She has the coolest videos! She uses a green screen or something and has these fancy backgrounds to her videos! It's so cool!

    Great video!

  • Ah, I remember the Speak hype last year. I didn't get to read it, my copy is floating somewhere around my pile of books in my room but I watched the movie. Powerful stuff.

    I had no idea the HG thing was a "teaser" trailer, I heard it was suppose to be the official trailer. I was like "gahhhh.... what is this?!" lol!

  • Speak is SOOOO good.

  • OMG, thank you so much! This explains my jump in subscribers and wow, you say such nice things about my reviews. Can't thank you enough!

  • I love your shirt and this haul was great! I totally LOVE Speak and The Perks of Being A Wallflower. I didn't have Catcher in the Rye in my curriculum either (it wasn't banned, we just never read it.) and I should probably read it sometime.. have a great day Priscilla!

  • @BOOKGUY13 It is September 24-October 1.

    :) Thanks!

  • @JoTheBW XD No problem Jo! I'm loving your reviews, and the 1001 books to read is just great! I'm looking forward to more of your vids!

    Thanks so much!!:D

  • Stacy and I were at Borders and two of the books you got in this haul were still sitting there right next to each other and we were like WHOA! :) Can't wait to see what you think of everything! :)

    -Jessica

  • catcher in the rye is my favorite book! i'm excited to see your review.

  • wow, I've read alot of banned books.The only book i have read is the catcher in the rye.

  • it's my birthday on the 10th of september <3 ^.^ YaY! :))))

    I don't like book banning xD haha~

  • Melissa and Renee are indeed awesome! :D

    People that ban books annoy me, cause they're not just banning books they're banning knowledge.

    I really enjoyed the teaser trailer of HGs too. xD

  • yay great haul Pricilla loving the concept/theme , I read speak around 4 yrs ago when I wasn't into reading and it was quite good , had to read it for school :/, I also really want to read the perks of being a wallflower :D maybe because of Emma Watson. I think there also making a movie on catcher & the rye with Leo dicaprio , I think it's gonna be out next year ... enjoy reading!! xx

  • Ah I have read 3 of these books

    A Catcher In the Rye- SUCHA GOOD angsty book... I love it.

    The Perks of Being a Wallflower- Good book. To some extent, it scared me! I mean what happens to Charlie...I was just like Wow..

    Speak- I liked that book. It was sad!

  • Speak is a great book. I wouldn't bother with the movie until after you've read the book. I have a pin that says "Everything important about life I've learned from reading banned books", I have it pinned on my nametag at work (I work at Barnes & Noble). :D

  • Perks is possibly my all time favorite book ever.

  • I think theres a movie that speak was made in to.. i swear i watched parts of it back in high school.. or at least it was based on the book

  • @SparklyPinkElixir yeah, there's a movie with kristen stewart playing the main character...

  • I often wonder why people want to ban books and who is doing the challenging. It makes me mad that people would even want to ban books. I mean even american psycho is rated R18+ and jeeze. Let people have there freedom, the worlds already dominated enough as it is. I could slap anyone who wants ban speak.

  • Gaw, Priscilla - bless your pretty, sassy cotton socks!! Thankyou very much for the shoutout, you are far too kind. HUGE HUGS.

    Oooooh, very good themes for this month. I do hope you love 'Speak', though I can't imagine anyone not being impressed and moved by that novel. Especially if you have the 10th anniversary edition, because the bonus material included is just extra emotionally involving.

  • @NEHOMAS2 No problem Renee! ^______^ Your vids are most awesome! *thumbs up*

    Thanks! Oh cool, I believe it does have extras at the back, so I'll have to check that out too!

  • I love the Catcher in the Rye!!!

  • OOOMMMGGG I LOVE THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER!!!!!!!!! It's like my FAVORITE book! I really like Speak too and I wanna read the absolutely true diary of a part time Indian so I'm looking forward to UR review to see if I should but I really love the perks!!!! I just home that movie doesn't ruin the whole thing!!

  • Thank you! I loved the teaser trailer. It was more of a sneak peek I mean like I think the whole purpose of that and it being during the VMA's was because they wanted to get people who didn't know about it to get curious about the movie. I mean to us fans we know what part it is and what it's all about. But to those who don't know they're like .... what is this I must know. Plus they're not done filming and it comes out March. We'll get trailers soon =D

  • The Absolutely True Diary of Part Time Indian just got added to my To-Read list :)

    I checked out the banned/challenged listed and was suprised to see several books on there that I have read and saw no problems with. One that really suprised me was the Junie B. Jones series (#71)...I can't think of why it would be on the list at all.

  • The absolutely true diary... is one of the books my English class is reading.

  • I'm reading the perks of being a wallflower next too :D

  • The Catcher in the Rye is my all time favorite book. This is the book that made me love reading about teen angst. This is definitely Salinger's masterpiece. Holden Caulfield is my favorite literary character of all time.

  • .... Is amazing -333

  • UGH Perks is my favorite book ever, I'm so excited for your review!

  • The perks of being of being a wallflower

  • Perks is a great book, everyone can relate to Charlie, hope you love it as much as I do

  • ooh mai gosh. awesome haul, fafsldkfkdfkdsfjdadsiofd

  • I agree about the trailer. So many people are complaining about it how it doesn't give you anything. But in my head I was like ... "its supposed to be a teaser, guys."

  • Banned books is a fabrication by a community of hardcore bookworms; it's a way of letting everyone in the cosmos of reading know that they're awesome books....and a way of increasing the literacy level in the world. That's why so many people read them. :p

    I was lucky enough to be close friends with my school's librarian when TPOBAW was banned from our library, so she just gave me the only copy they had. I waited until after graduating to read it, and boy, it sucked. Speak was awesome though. :)

  • Great idea to read banned/challenged books. ;-)

  • I had to read Catcher In The Rye in the 10th grade and I read Speak in college just for fun. I did like both, but I think I didn't like Catcher In The Rye as much as I think I could have because I was required to read it. Being forced to read a book for a grade in a class turns me off of the book most of the time

  • I loved the sneak peak to the hunger games as well!! I seriously got goosebumps when at the end you hear what seems to be Rue's whistle. =)

  • i still need to read the hunger games. :/

  • I read the catcher in the rye and speak in school! Didn't really enjoy catcher in the rye ,but Loved Speak. Also I really loved the Hunger Games Teaser. I thought it was really good, especially the gale voice over!!

  • So I'm trying to come up with a comment that isn't "HOLY SHIT a;khtriojlrhg;ohiw;slrt;oaiher­" and it is INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT. Thank you so much Priscilla, both for the plug and for the incredibly nice things you said about me.

    Also, I am SUPER EXCITED about this month's theme. Book banning is a subject that's very important to me.

  • @mothereffingbooks XD LOL You're awesome, Sarah. No problem, keep up the cool!

    I haven't read many challenged/banned books, so I'm very interested to read these books!

  • ummm I just looked at the ALA 2010 list and Hunger Games was number 5 "Reasons:sexually explicit, unsuited to age group, and violence" sexually explicit... did I miss something?

  • @MeaghanTheBookAddict hahaha is it the NAME of the book, really? omg... and theeey are dirty-minded!

  • @MeaghanTheBookAddict T 0T I KNOW. I'm baffled.

  • i LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the perks of being a wallflower, catcher in the rye, and speak. they're so great! you're in for a treat this month!

  • Speak is such an amazing novel!

  • I really enjoyed the teaser trailer as well. I thought everyone loved it, but then I came on here and went on Twitter and apparently a lot of people thought it was bad. I loved the fire, and Katniss running through the woods. And the arrow shooting was really well done as well.

  • & you did edited down to exactly 7 minutes! :)

    & I also love your reviews, I started reading more and more because of you! <3

  • @breezeebbydoll That is AWESOME. Reading is enjoyable, I kid you not! :)

  • Thank you so much for mentioning me, Priscilla! :) The Catcher in the Rye is excellent, I hope you enjoy it. Speak is great as well. I have The Perks of Being a Wallflower on my bookshelf, yet I haven't read it yet.

  • @TheMetalheadBookworm No problemo, Melissa! You never, ever forget to be awesome ;D

    Thanks so much, I'm very excited, and I can't wait to read them! ^.^

  • for October you should do horror/scary novels : )

  • @jennafranchi Definitely. :D

  • I loved Speak. I actually have a review of it up now. Hope you enjoy the book

  • I just saw Diary of a Part-Time Indian the other day in the bookstore! Speak is great and I've been wanting to check out Perks :)

  • Yay for all of the new spotlighted booktubers!

    Nice haul! I love the theme!

  • I love your Booktuber Spotlights! I'm new to the book community, so it really helps me find some other great Booktubers out there. Nice haul, Miss Priscilla! :)

  • As someone who is currently in library school I. Love. This. Haul!!!

    You picked some books that I want to read. The only one from this haul I've read is Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson, but it was wonderful. Looking forward to your reviews in September!

  • @consumedbybooks Thanks so much! I was so excited for this month! :) Cheers

  • Oh my goodness, I don't want to sound stupid but haven't people said that catcher in the rye has been linked to a lot of serial killers and stuff like that?? Haha idk if I'm talking about the right book

  • you willl LOVE catcher in the rye......it's AAWEESOME!

  • Speak and Catcher in the Rye are great. :] I have that version of CITR and I don't know why it doesn't have a description on the back, but I'm sure you'll like it. :] I need to check out The Perks of Being a Wallflower, I've been seeing it everywhere! Great haul!

  • Just want to say thank you for doing book reviews on YT you are awesome! Love your review best book reviewer on YT

  • @10130116 Thanks so much, I appreciate the lovely comment! :)

  • Hmm I've read 3/4 of those and I didn't know that they were considered banned/challenged. I've actually never read The Catcher in the Rye. I loved Sherma Alexie's and Stephen Chbosky's books. Didn't quite enjoy Speak though. Maybe you'll enjoy it more than I did (:

  • You're not the only one who liked the Hunger Games teaser, I really liked it too. :) And I loved Rue's melody at the end!

  • @MyMovieLove I didn't even know that was Rue's melody! T 0T *re-watches trailer*

  • Perks! <3 You will LOVE that book. It is an extremely deep and powerful book. Speak is also really great too! It is a very deep issue too. Hope you enjoy all of them! I think I am going to post my own intro onto my channel this weekend! I am nervous and excited at the same time! LOL

  • @katvela Thank you!

    Oh! Good luck :D You can do it!!

  • Great picks! :)

  • I want to sub to your videos, but you just talk to much in the beginning of them. No offense, but I clicked on the video to see/hear about what new stuff you've got, but you spend like 3 minutes talking about other stuff *sad face*

  • Comment removed

  • "The Catcher In the Rye" is beyond amazing and it's a quick read (even though I'm a slooow reader, I finished it in 2 days). It's a strange story, but it actually makes perfect sense! Just as a sidenote, you won't find out the meaning of the title until the very last few pages.

  • @madeyes4u Good to know! I'm very curious to see XD

  • SHE GETS RAPED. Bam. Spoiled.

  • Ahh, I'm so excited you're reading 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower'! It's my all-time favourite book, almost life-changing for me (even though I don't really like saying that because it sounds cheesy haha). I hope you love it as much as I did!

  • @SaintWithSuperPowers Thanks so much! I've heard just amazing things about the book :)

  • I really enjoyed The CITR in high school :) And The Perks of BWF is soo good, I loved Charlie! Speak was a meaningful read. Great September theme and thanks for the spotlights I can't subscribe to enough book vloggers. :))

  • I want to read all of those books! can't wait to see what you have to say about them :D and OMGOMGOMGOMG that trailer got me SOOOOOOOO pumped. I loved it.

  • the september theme sounds really awesome,

    unfortunately i'm too out of money to read along, academic year started ;)

    cant wait for your reviews though!!

  • @cathy2708 I understand! Hoping all your studies go well this year :)

    Thank you!

  • CATCHER IN THE RYE <3 Best book ever. Perks is great too ^^

  • i hated the catcher in the rye. so terrible and annoying.

  • The catcher in the rye! :D

  • Love the theme this month! Awesome awesome! My school actually reads Speak for a novel study class. I am also loving the shout outs to other booktubers, I am getting introduced to so many cool people haha!

  • Speak is great. (:

  • I love speak. It is an amazing book. I really hope you enjoy it. 

  • I loooooove The Catcher in the Rye!!! I read it in high school. 

  • I think speak was made into a movie and kriten stewart stared in it

  • The Perks of Being a Wallflower is one of my favourite books!! I really hope you will enjoy it. :) Speak is also very good, but I haven't read it since I was in Grade 8 so... 9 years ago? It's been awhile! But I remember really liking it then.
