 Hey guys, it's Liana and I'm here today to do something a little bit different. It's not a vlog, which you know from the thumbnail, but I'm intro-ing it right now. Whatever, go with me. Today, we are unhauling books, but we're doing it together. So instead of just going through all my shelves and deciding myself by myself in boring silence, which things I'm gonna haul, unhaul, I thought I'd have you join me on this journey of figuring what the fuck I'm gonna keep and what I'm gonna get rid of. So that's what we're doing today. So it's kind of like a bookshelf tour of what I don't want to keep. Alrighty, so I think that's pretty clear. We're just gonna go through the shelves where I have like more random stuff, because like the shelves that I feature in my videos normally, which I think is all in shadow right now, the shelves that I feature more in my videos, where I'm like sitting in front of them are like shelves of favorites, shelves of stuff that like I definitely want to collect that I want to keep. It's like those are like my books. But these shelves are a little bit more just like random shit that I just like put here because it fit. All right, let's do it. Okay, so at the tippy tippy top, I've got super random stuff. This is kind of like it happened because as I was moving, my boxes were kind of out of order in different boxes. So just like kind of the last few boxes that I unpacked, actually my last few boxes are over here. Perhaps we should start there. These are the last last boxes that have no space. I don't even know what's in there because there's no where to put them, so I haven't bothered. This was second to last boxes just kind of ended up on the top here and also on the top of here and up there. I just kind of shoved them there because that's where they fit. So may haps, may haps. Let's go through these boxes first and foremost. Underground Railroad, I'm definitely keeping that. I've been meaning to read it and when I wanted to read it, I didn't have it in my apartment unpacked yet, but I'll come back around to that. So definitely give me that. This is an old textbook from University from my Biology of Sex Difference class. I don't know if I need this. When will I ever read it again? Never. I don't know. TBV. This was sent to me for review and I couldn't find it until I was moving. I found it now. So I need to remember that I have this with Coulson. This I got at, I think at Yall West. I just basically throw arcs at you Yall West. I don't think I'm ever going to read this. It's like a contemporary romance to tech conversations. No, thank you. All right. Oh, I've never read an Amidani book, but I own a bunch because I keep wanting to read them. This I think is, takes place Chinatown. That is not what I remembered. Regent Circus Star. That's not what I remember being about. I thought it was about a brothel. Okay, cool. Well, whatever. Yeah, I'll keep that. I really want to read Alias Grace. I picked this up like I was specifically looking for it because I want to watch the movie or what is this? Oh, because I got this used. What is this? Somebody's personal notes and letters? Interesting. Well, anyway, yeah, I really want to watch the adaptation of it, but I want to read it first. Yeah, I'll keep that. Pretty sure I got this because it had the word wolf on it and I'm obsessed with wolves. What the fuck is this even about? It sounds kind of interesting. It's kind of a thriller-y frontier kind of thing. I might read that. Oh god, I'm going to say that about everything. Tis by Frank McCourt for Angela's Ashes. I used to officially call my favorite book. I have since stopped doing that, but it's still, oh, it is a favorite. And this is the quote-unquote sequel. I mean, it's just like the next part of his life because they're just his memoirs, Frank McCourt. So this is like the years that he spent as a young man in America. And then there's a book after this that I've never read. I've read Tis that I've never read called Teacher Man, which is years as a teacher. Oh yeah, definitely keeping that. Cold Mountain, I started reading in the store and then I bought it and then haven't picked it up since. And that was years ago. Oh god, it's dirty. Why is it dirty? Ooh, yikes, yikes, yikes. I'll keep it. Just in case. Oh wait, hang on, wait. Why is it an old library copy? What is this? No, I'm not keeping this. I thought I had a better copy. I liked actually. I don't know why I have this, but I'm getting rid of it. This is just the best jacket. So, um, okay. Oh, these are more school books. The Marks Angles Reader. Am I ever going to read this again? Or refer to it? Do I want to keep it on my shelves so I look edified? No, got to get rid of that, I think. Same thing from Max Weber, essays in sociology. Had to read this for university. Will I read it again? Have I even looked at it since? Never get rid of that. Another Emma Donoghue book, The Wonder. I think I got this because I like the cover. Oh, it's aerial. Oh yeah, it's like some strange thing with a nurse and something that seems kind of like magical, but may or may not be. Yeah, I'll read that. Gilded Cage. Oh, I definitely got this for the cover and it was like a dollar, but I heard really negative things about it since then. So, yeah. Oh wait, you're not going to read this. If I do, I'll probably hate it. So let's get rid of that. Dating Hamlet. I read this in like middle school and I loved it. And I'm afraid to reread it because I loved it then, but I feel like I hate it now because back then I was like, so clever to use the story of Hamlet. And now I've grown up a lot, but not nostalgia though. I'll keep it. Definitely got this for the cover. The Enchanted. What the fuck is it even about? Oh, there's a killer in York. Okay, yeah. I'll read that. Oh, Nutshell by Ian McEwen. I don't know if I'd like this or not, but it's super unique sounding. It's told from the perspective of fetus inside the womb. And there's like a murder, I think. Oh yeah. And it's really short. Yeah, that'd be a good October read, I think. The Wager. This is like a Faustian metastopheles. Type of thing. I don't know if it's any good, but the cover is baller. Yep, Don Giovanni. I mean, I have to keep this right. That I'll keep it through October. And if I don't read it this October, then I'll get rid of it. Good plan. Well, that's one. Wait, one more. Go say to Watchman. I got this special edition one that's like, oh, it's like shiny and everything. But then I heard really, really bad things about it. I just, it was like, it's a classic. But maybe not. I feel like I want this on my shelves. This is a really nice edition. And for that reasonable fetch a good prize. Yeah, I think we get rid of that. All right, one box down. And that is the get rid of pile. Not very big, is it? The next box I think isn't just books. I think there's like a random random shit in here. What is even in here? Oh, my Audrey Hepburn stuff. I was obsessed with Audrey Hepburn in high school. I have three whole books about Audrey Hepburn, which I've never even looked at. Like I bought them and displayed them. I've never like looked at them. Oh, this is just photographs though, right? You think it's just, yeah, this is okay. I did look at this. This is just pictures. I'll keep that. Other two, this, I think I got it. Urban outfitters. Oh, it's also for, okay. Damn it. Now I'm looking at them and I want to keep them. How to be lovely. I think someone gifted me this. I think it was my mother. Oh, this is just like life advice from Audrey Hepburn. I feel like this was pretty saccharine and I hated it. Sorry mom. But it was like, you know, always being yourself. Like fuck off. Yeah, I might get rid of that. Um, okay. This is some materials from a seminar that I was in. More seminar stuff. Oh, yes. More seminar stuff. What's this? Oh, this is a Discworld companion book. I have only read, um, Oggfather. I want to be born Discworld books, but do I need this? I think I've looked at it. I got it because it was like really cheap. I never actually looked at World of Stuff. I might keep this to gift to someone because it's cool. I just never look at this stuff. You know what I'm saying? I'll keep it, but not for me. I'll keep it on deck to give to a friend. This was a gift for Christmas when I was in college. I'm a pole and so can you my Stephen Colbert. I got it on this. Definitely made me laugh when I got it. Okay, I'll keep it. A memory. There's some old journals that I never wrote in. Don't think I need to keep, but I can't. I mean, I did write in them like a page in each because you know, as one does. So I think I have to throw them away. I can't even give them away. Sad. Oh, Rolling Stone with Mumford & Sons. Definitely keeping that. Pink love Mumford & Sons. Yes, The Art of War, which I got in this giant edition which didn't look giant when I ordered it. I don't know why it's giant. I don't like that it's giant. It's like really silly looking. So I might get rid of it for that reason. The Viking Warrior. This looks like a textbook. Did I know it was a textbook when I bought it? I don't remember. Okay, but I might actually look at this because Vikings. Research, you know. Okay, definitely keeping that. I was going to read Snowpiercer because I hate graphic novels, but I liked the movie and I was like, wait, oh, it's all black and white though. How boring. Okay, I'll give this to my friend who likes graphic novels. I also have some prints of Audrey Hepburn, which I don't know what I'm going to do with. I got them at Pike Place Market in Seattle, but like realistically, like I had them on my wall in high school. What am I going to do with them now? Oh, nothing. Here are those. Oh, I got this Tolkien Dragon book because it was illustrated by Hildebrand. My favorite illustrated fairy tale book when I was a kid was illustrated by Hildebrand. Okay, it's pretty legit. I got this for really cheap. Hildebrand's illustrations, look at that. Keeping that. Yes, I ordered this. I had a special order from Eight Books together in card cover like this, which is a Viking book. So just need to read that at some point, but this kind of like bold and like super old. Like I might read it on Kindle because like the pages are even kind of like warped. I don't know, but it's Vikings. Okay, right there. I think I got this at like a Roman's book sale. Oh, it's really pretty. That's why I bought it and it's illustrated. I don't know if I'm ever going to read this, but this is just like book porn. Okay, it's really pretty. Yeah, I'm keeping that. All right, another box complete. Next box. We have in here, oh, I think I'm at a lot of my Shakespeare books right here, a lot of them. And Nancy Drew. Okay, let's actually go through this shit. Okay, this is all actually Shakespeare plays. I've got Othello, The Tempest, Margin of Venice. I'm taming it a sure. Yeah, I mean, I'm a huge Shakespeare fan and I love these editions. So definitely keeping those. I'm not, that was my favorite Shakespeare play. And then we've got 12th Night, which is my favorite Shakespeare comedy. And this is a pretty cool edition. This is, this is an old, old Nancy Drew book that I think I got, I'm using bookstore. I was obsessed with Nancy Drew. That was all I read when I was a kid. Yeah, definitely keeping that and all of these. Actually, am I going to keep these for nostalgia? I'm never going to read these again. How would I keep these? I'm literally never going to read these again. But these old ones are cool. Okay, I'll get rid of these plasticky ones because maybe they'll be worth something, something. No, don't get rid of them. But I shall keep this old, old copy of The Secret of the Old Clock, which is the first Nancy Drew story like ever. And this old one as well. Yes, I shall keep those. Then these are some Hogarth Shakespeare. All of these are Hogarth Shakespeare. Got The Gap of Time, which is based on The Tempest, right? No, based on The Winter's Tale. He even says that. I can read, I promise. Vinegar Girl, which is based on Timmy and the Shrew. And Shylock is my name, obviously Richard of Venice. And I have other editions. I have Gap and Time, again, in this copy, which is so pretty. I have Hardcover version of Shylock is my name. Hardcover version of Vinegar Girl. Hardcover version of Gap and Time. Ooh, and this is the only edition I have of New Boy by Tracy Chevalier, which is also Hogarth Shakespeare. This is based on Othello. Yeah, let's just say keeping all those. Then some more actual Shakespeare, as you like it, my second favorite Shakespeare comedy and The Tempest. I don't have so many copies of The Tempest. I don't even like The Tempest that much. Texts from Jane Eyre. I actually went to see the author speak before I started any book life. I was in university or just graduated. She was going to be at a local bookstore. I didn't even know about it, my friend. My roommate wanted to go and I was like, I'll go with you. This book's really funny, but it's way better as an audiobook because it's text conversations between famous historical, like famous literary characters. And they're not all Jane Eyre. It's like random stuff. So the audiobook is fabulous. As a book book, it doesn't work that well. I don't know if I want to keep the book book because if I revisit this, it's going to be as an audiobook. I think that's decided. I'm getting rid of the physical book. Oh, Amanda gifted this to me because it's by the author of What's It Called. Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue, but it's a Frankenstein retelling. And I do love me Frankenstein, so I need to read this. I forgot I had it. That's a good October read. I'll keep that. Love Lies and Spies, in which plans for a season without romance are unapologetically foiled. This looks like it would be really funny, but also I've read, I've been so burned by historical romance type things that are so like anachronistically written. I feel like this could be one of those, but I don't actually know if I've ever read anything by the author. Hmm, I guess I'll keep it just in case. This is also by that same author. So I have to keep both of them because if one is good, then the other will be good. Fine, I'll keep them. Boys, Snow, Bird. Why did I get this? I feel like I saw someone talking about it and it sounded cool, and then I forgot all about it. And it was like a dollar. Oh, it's like Snow White, but in 1953, the main character is known as Boy. I don't know, but it sounded cool at the time. I bet it is really good. I feel like it's an award winner of some sort. I'll keep it. The Library at Mount Char. This is one of Mara's favorites. I do want to read it. It also looks like it would be my jam. Yeah, definitely want to read this. So keeping that. Another box. Done. And the last box. Boxed box. Super random stuff. Oh Lord. Okay. Super beat-to-shit mass market paperback of the second Wizard of Terror sort of truth book. Uh, yeah. I'm very likely would reread the series, but like mass market paperbacks, I used to be the only way I read books. This is very red, but it's ugly as shit. So gotta get rid of that, I think. I'm gonna reread it. I'll call you on Kendall or I'll get nicer additions. Yes, this is my first fantasy series and it holds a special place in my heart. Is it good? No. Will I read it again? Very possibly. Oh, Temple of the Forewinds. I will never reread this. This is the weirdest of the series. Like so weird. Oh my God, even for Terry Goodkind. This book is fucking nuts. Oh my God, too weird. Okay, definitely get rid of that. Faith of the Fallen was actually my favorite in the sort of truth series. This is the fifth one, I think, but it's a ugly mass market paperback. So I'll reread that, too. Ooh, the baby that started it all, that is really beat-to-shit Wizard's First Rule. Well, I think I have another copy of it. That's like slightly nicer. So get rid of that. And another one. Soul of the Fire. Oh, this is the fifth one. Faith of the Fallen is the sixth one. Um, yeah. The mass market paperback, so get rid of that. Oh, Robin Hood. In these cool editions that I was collecting for a while, and then I forgot they existed. Well, that's just too cute to get rid of, isn't it? Rags and bones, new twists on timeless tales. Oh, this is a collection of, like, anthology. Yeah, I read anthologies. I think I got it just because I had a game and story in it. And Garthnicks. Am I going to read this? Like literally never. Yeah, let's get rid of that. Ooh, how did the master bells? I need to read that. So, keeping that. Oh, this I got on a fluke. I think I follow the author on Instagram. I have it on my Kindle, too, though. And if I'm going to read it, it will probably be on my Kindle. So I'm going to get rid of that, I think. This was sent to me that I am never going to read it. It is middle grade. And I don't like middle grade unless it's my game. And so I'm going to get rid of that. This is a game with storytelling cards. It's really cool looking, but it's not a book that I'm keeping it. Mercedes Lackey Firebird. Oh yeah, this is a retelling of Ivan and the Firebird, which was one of my favorite fairy tales growing up. So I'll keep that. Ooh, two Jeff Wheeler books. I love the Mirrorwood books. The wretched of me word is the first one. Definitely keeping that. And the Thieves' Daughter is the second in the King's Fountain trilogy. I've read the first one, the Queen's Poisoner, which is this brown here somewhere. I still need to read Thieves' Daughter. It's a second one. Keep that. And these are some samples, I think, of books that were already published. Skyward. And it's signed to me. Oh God, I think someone gifted me this. I don't want it. Okay, I'm gonna get rid of that. A sample of God's Grave, which... Oh, this is a poster too, I think? Yeah, I think this used to be on my wall. Yeah, it's just a first chapter sampler. And it's a poster. Oh God, what we all know. I've very much fallen out of love with this. So I'm gonna get rid of that. A wakingland sample. I never read samples. However, this... I don't even... I think this is a short story that was in a book box. Yeah, I'm never gonna read that. Also, this is a sample that came in a book box. I'm never gonna read that. Another box done. On to the shelves. Okay. Oh God, I'm already exhausted. At the top, we've got Between the World and We Want to Tell the Husky Coats. Never Let Me Go by Kazubu Shiguro. A Monster Calls. And two Donald Tart books. Obviously, keeping all of those. Seven Husbands of Evil and Hugo, which I'm pretty sure is signed. The Light Between Ocean. What's the leopard? I feel like I got it. I forgot about it. Do I want this? Pretty badass cover. Death and Dark Magic. Those are my buzzwords. Okay. I'll keep it. And Shadow of the Wind. I've been meaning to read this literally since I started books around. One of these days. Okay, Light Years. I think this came in a book box. And I am never gonna... Yeah, it came in... It's an Illumicrate exclusive. It's an arc, I think. Yeah, it's an arc. Uncorrected proof. I'm never gonna read this. Getting rid of that. These are a bunch of clear of the grand books that I'm obviously keeping. I think they're all signed too. I really like Winter Stall, by the way. It's a nutcracker retelling. The cover is got awful. This is like literally the worst cover ever. If it wasn't my clear of the grand, I would never have read it. And Sock Hill Girls. Downsons. Sock Hill Girls, though. Such a new book. A bunch of Neil Gaiman books. And what is Poison's Kiss? And do I want it? I mean, it's a cool ass fucking cover. I am the Shakanya. People think Poison Maidens are only in legends, but here I am. When I kiss people, they die. I don't know about that. See. Yeah, I don't think I'm going to read this, if I'm honest. Love is lethal. Yeah, fuck off now. All the crooked saints by Maggie Steve Otter are the meaning to read that. So keeping that, the rest of us just live here. Am I going to read it though, honestly? Yeah, it's all about the people that are not the chosen ones. Like the friends of, which I remember thinking the concept was cool, but I'm never ever going to want to read this. Okay, let's get rid of it. Alrighty. Ladies' Guide. Reddit liked it. Lonely's Girl in the Universe. This is an arc I got. And I've heard really good things about it. I do still want to read it. So keeping that. The Queen's Poisoner. That's the one I was just talking about. The First and the King's Fountain. Keeping that. A bunch of Bone Season books. More Bone Season books. Of Horsey books. Don't know what's in that box. And I don't want to deal with it right now. That's for another day. My Cruel Prince Collection. Yeah, that's staying. I don't know if I like this or not yet, so that's staying. Conqueror Saga by Kristen White. Love it. Champion of Ravens or Margaret Rodgerson. Love it. I really like The Last Night of Sara, but I learned that the second one, The Caged Queen is not about the main character, the same main character, and they don't match. It annoys the fuck out of me. So I might get rid of this. Because I've never wanted, ever since I learned that it's not about the same character, I have never wanted to read it. And if I do read it, I'll probably get like the audiobook wrote on Kindle, because I don't even like this cover. So get rid of it. And I have a bunch of Penguin books. Secret History, obviously. Keeping that. Oh yeah, I have two copies of The Secret History. I think I'm going to do a giveaway because I accidentally ordered two. Hi Claudius. Around the toilet club. East of Eden Ceremony. White Noise. Tolby the Slave. Cool Comfort Farm. You've always lived in the castle. Oh, the 39 steps. I love how he hated it. I did. I wrote this this year. I hated it. Gotta start with that. Oh, and this is like a chapter sampler of these villains books, which I have no interest in books. So why would I want the sampler? Like it looks cool, but I'm not going to read this. Yeah, get rid of that. Then I have another copy of The Secret History and The Little Friend by Donald Hart, which I have not read, but I want to. So keep in that. Moving on down. We've got the Shatter Me series, which I haven't finished reading. I need to read The Novella and Imagine Me. The Devour and Gray I've heard is similar to Stranger Things slash Riverdale. So I want to read that. I've read Scythe, but not Thunderhead. And I liked Scythe. And I imagine I will like Thunderhead. So keep in that. Oh, Carter and Lovecraft. I started reading this and I liked it. I need to keep reading it. That might be a good October read. Fan girl. I'm not interested in, but I keep promising myself I'll read it. So I'll keep it for now. I need to finish the TrulyDB series. I read the first one. I need to read two and three. I loved The Winner's Trilogy. Book covers are awful. Daisy Jones in the sixth. Oh, this is my fancy pants. Special edition from Goldsboro. Yeah, you jelly. I read the first two in the Jack of the series. But I need to read the second, third and fourth books. And a Madness So Discreet. So underrated. I love this book. Highly, highly recommend. I might want to reread that. So good. Definitely recommend. Moving on down. We've got The Killing Jar, which I think someone gave to me. I don't think I'm ever, ever going to read this. I've never wanted to. So let's get rid of it. Resurgence I think was sent to me. And I'm never going to read it. So let's get rid of it. The Queen of the Tearling series is one that I've been meaning to read for forever. And I have these nice matching hardcover editions. So keep in that. Hook's Tale. It's a Peter Pan retelling. And I love Peter Pan, even though I almost always hate anything that is derived from Peter Pan. We'll try it. Being the account of an unjustly villainized pirate written by himself. I mean, it sounds cheeky. Short, so. That. Rain the Earth. Oh, I think this is signed. And I went to her signing for my birthday. Yep. I still haven't read it though. So gotta keep this though. God, I hope I like, I feel like that's why I haven't read it because it's too stressful for me. What if I hate it? I still have to keep it because like, look at this. Glory. This is the first, what's it called? Murderbot book. Um, I need to read the rest. I have them on Kindle. Pryor's War. I have a finished copy. This is the Ark that I got at Yoll West. I'll keep it just in case I like it because then I'll want to collect the Ark. Oh my god, I've been meaning to read Skull Degree Pleasant for like my entire life. Still haven't read it. Maybe I'll read it this Halloween. But like this edition, look at the naked cover. So cool. I gotta read that. Um, a ton of French books are recommended to me, but like, I think I got them, like not the first thing I was supposed to start with. Just, I don't know why I got these ones. I did though. So I guess I'll keep them. I don't really know where, can someone tell me where you're supposed to start with ton of French? I don't actually know. I got this at a used bookstore, randomly because it looked kind of cool, but now I'm regretting it. The pox party. It might be cool. It looked kind of quirky. And like Game and Esk. Oh, and it has Deckled Edges, which is like correct to me. I mean, okay, but yeah, honestly, I'm not gonna read it. Probably not. So let's get rid of it. Oh, I got this literally because of the cover at some like book sale. I'm pretty sure this is not even like the first book in a series. Like it's a sequel. Yeah, Clockwork Angels. And now this is Clockwork Lives. It's really cool looking though. I'm not gonna read it though. Moving right along. And we've got my British stuff. So the Golden Compass trilogy, which I have mixed feelings about. A bunch of Pratchett books that I want to read. The Pratchett book that I have read. The Pratchett Gaiman book that I have read. The Full Dark Materials in one. Honestly, okay. So I have this collected work. Like, this is the He's Dark Materials on three. I mean, it's really cool. Everyman's Library Edition. Do I want to keep these ugly ass Mad Spock of Herobracks? Like, no, these are ugly as shit. Okay, let's get rid of these. Forge Against the Night and the Cool UK Cover. I like these covers a lot, so keep that. Another different edition of the Amber Spyglass. Yeah, no, thank you. I have the collected works here. I don't need this, especially because I don't have matching ones of the first book or the third book like this. So, um, let's get rid of it. Girls of Paper and Fire, which I have not taken out of the plastic, but I got it from Alcreight. Um, I don't have a fucking read it though. I think I just kept it because I was like someone would probably want it. I'm like, I was going to keep it for that hypothetical future someone. Let's get rid of it. Then some more Philip Pullman books. Oh, these are all Philip Pullman books. Okay, these are all like fancy editions. So we're keeping those. All right, already making space. All right, done here. What have we got? Gideon the Cut Purse. Uh, I think I got this because the spine is cool, which is a great reason to get a book. 1763. Oh, I think it's like a kid's adventure slash steam punky thingy, which I'm never going to read. Let's be real. I literally got this because of the spine. Yeah, let's get rid of it. Hero's Dive by Matthew Woodring Stover. I got this on Pierce Brown's recommendation, and it's really hard to find. So I'm definitely keeping this. I might end up hating it, but we don't know yet. It's really, really hard to find this book. So clap for me for having found it. Definitely keeping it. Secrets of Moldara. This made the rounds on Bookstagram, and this was sent to me in like a book box. I promoted it, and I have not read it, and I am never going to. It's like a portal fantasy, I think. Yeah, I'm getting rid of that. Got a bunch of Dandy Gilbert books, which are really hard to find in print. So can I keep all those? These are murder mysteries in like the 1920s in Scotland. I read the first one this year, and I liked it. So gotta read the rest at some point. Nitro, Dwayne, Gray. I got this in Cameron and Alchemy in Inkbox, but it's kind of low-key ugly, and I have a better edition of it now. Yeah, it's really shiny, and again, kind of low-key ugly. Let's get rid of it. Hell, The Farm Boy is a book that I keep thinking I'm going to think is funny, and then I keep not thinking it's funny. I'm still going to keep trying. Supernatural Enhancements is another one that I keep almost unhauling and then keeping, and then almost unhauling and then keeping, so we're just going to keep it again this time. That's another Dandy Gilbert book that I should move up there, but I'm too lazy right now. And Russian Folklore, which also came in Alchemy in Inkbox, but it's way cooler. Okay, I'll keep that. I've been meaning to read this Charlie J. Anders book for forever, because I really liked All the Birds in the Sky by Charlie J. Anders, and I have it facing out to remind me that it exists. Clearly that worked, but I have space now to put it up here because I unhaul this stuff, so. Kill Shakespeare, a graphic novel that I'll probably never read. I only got it because it's Shakespeare. Okay, I might read it though. It's kind of Sandman-esque. Okay, I'll keep it. Two bitch-planet graphic novels that were gifts. I've read the first one, not the second one. I guess I'll read President Bitch at some point. I'll do it, plus they were gifts. These are arcs of Black Wings beating and Red Skies falling, which were gifted to me, and I've not touched them, but I will read these someday. Beast was written by the author of my favorite Peter Pan retelling. This cover is glorious, like literally the prettiest cover in the history of all time. But I didn't really like this. I thought I would because I really liked Alias Hook. Like, I love Alias Hook 5 stars. This was not my favorite, and it just makes me sad because I really like the cover. But I like, it's just like, I'll low three stars. It's so pretty. That's the only reason I'm keeping it, but I can't keep it because I hated it. I don't, okay, I didn't hate it, but I really didn't like it. Getting rid of it. The Monstromologist, which I think I've heard kind of good things about. I feel like Keep Leap Heel will keep pushing me to read Rick Yancey, and I've never read any Rick Yancey. I feel like I might like this though. This is a cool edition. Like, I don't think it comes in this edition anymore. I don't know where I found this. Oh yeah, this is a good October read. Okay, I'll keep this and read it in October. Color of Money, Black Banks, oh yeah. And the Nickel Boys, I got both of these from a local Black-owned bookstore, S.O.N. Books, which I'll read at some point. Nickel Boys, I'm really, really looking forward to. And this, like, is, you know, educational. So gotta keep both of those. I got the Rook because Mara really likes it, and also I really want to watch the TV series. But also, I don't know what I'm gonna read this, if ever. It takes place on a modern day, which is, like, very rarely. My jam has really long, and my desire to see the TV series has waned thoroughly. I might get rid of this. Sorry, Mara. Oh my God, I got this book because it is the flippidiest, floppidiest pickback. Also, I think I might like it. I don't remember what it is, because this is a trilogy, a bind-up, the Southern Reach trilogy. Annihilation, Authority, and Acceptance. I think it's a dystopian. I just, I love this flippity floppy pickback. Like, honestly, like, so much. Yeah, keepin' that. Then I have all my, oh yeah, this is the Wicked. Why is that interrupting? My Queen's Thief books. This looked like Divine King, eh? That's why I got on it. Yeah, so I'm gonna keep that. And this is the Queen's Thief series, so the Thief, where are they out of order? It goes the Thief, then the Queen of Atolia. No, yes? No, I'm missing one. I'm so confused. No, it goes the Thief, the Queen's Thief. No, the Thief, the Queen of Atolia, then the King of Atolia. I don't know. I've only read the first three, or two and a half. I didn't finish the third one yet. Anyway, that's that. And they're also interrupted because there's another one down here. Why are they all out of fucking order? And why do I need to look at? Okay, yeah, no. I don't need this if I have. I don't need both of these, right? And this is the edition that matches the other ones I have, so let's get rid of this one, because I don't fucking need it. I thought the cover's kinda cool. No, I don't need it. I don't fucking need it. And then we've got the Tiger's Daughter and the Phoenix Empress, which I think is a duology that's like Asian-inspired fantasy, which I think I heard kind of mixed things about. I am still interested in it. Oh, and I think it's queer? Yeah, I'll keep that. And Surface Breaks I got, again, at Yall West. And I'm never gonna read this. Uncorrected proof, yeah. And I have no interest in this. I very rarely like mermaid stories. Moving right along, we've got the Golden Dream of Carlo, whatever the fuck this is by Lloyd Alexander. I love Lloyd Alexander books when I was a kid, but I'm never gonna read this because I don't ever read middle grade. Like, I'm sure it's cute and cool and all, but I'm not gonna read this. So let someone's kid read it. Just Ella! I loved this book so much when I was a kid. And I love this cover. They don't sell this cover anymore. Look, the new covers are fucking ugly. So yeah, I'm definitely keeping that. Oh, this book is really hard to find, The Tropic of Cancer by Henry Miller. And it is supposed to be graphic as fuck, like, sexually. And I'm very curious to read it. So, since I had to work so hard to find it, I don't know how to keep that. This was a gift, and I didn't really like it. So I'm gonna take care of it. Sorry! This was my favorite Lloyd Alexander book when I was a kid. I read this like three or four times. I really liked it. I kind of am curious to reread it. I read it a lot when I was a kid. Uh, I'll keep it for now. I might get rid of it. Um, talk of our lasting, but it's like a library edition, which is ugly as fuck. Yeah, I don't want this to be the copy of it. Oh, and it's also like dirty and ugly. Yeah, I don't want this. I do want a copy of this, but not this copy, so I'm getting rid of that. Then, for some reason, I missed foreign paperbacks here. I have the hard covers. I don't know that I need these paperbacks, because if I reread it, it'll probably be on Kindle. And I have cooler editions. Like this box set is nice and all, but I don't really like white books, which I've talked about before. I like the other editions. I have better. And I ended up not really even liking the series, so let's get rid of it. Oh, then I have a bunch of books that I got for research purposes. Werewolves in Western Culture. I like Canthropy Reader. The Book of Werewolves. Being an account of a terrible superstition, which I think is an old historical text, also research. Life in a Medieval Village. Research. The Werewolf in Lauren Legend. Also research. Keep under that. All right. I've made progress. All right. Coming down to the bottom here, I've got all my Illuminae books, which I still like that series, even though Full Night of Love with Jay Kristoff's will keep that. My Bone Season books, which the fourth one is finally coming out this year, I think, or next year. So finally paying off having that. So we have here, and we've got some recent books that I got. I just hauled this, Carrie, which I plan to read in October, as well as The Dark Tower. Books one and two in The Dark Tower. I just bought this. Yeah, these are all books that I like just bought. So obviously I'm keeping them. I just didn't have any words to put them. Also got this from Essamon. Trouble is what I do. I think it's like a a cop noir type thriller, Race After Technology, for my own edification. The Unsuitable, which is horror that's like gothic that I think I'm going to read in October. Keeping that for sure. These are books that I mentioned on a live show with Amanda. These Fractured Fairy Tales by Gail Carson the Lion, which I love when I was a kid. I read these over and over when I was a kid, but I've never revisited them. So I might get to read with them because it doesn't even have, I don't even have my favorite one. Why don't I have my favorite one? Well, in any event, these were like if you got kids, these are really good, but I'm never going to read these again. Let's get rid of these. A Midsummer Night's hashtag note. Oh, it's like a text message version of Midsummer Night's Dream. Cute idea, but I'm never going to read that. And Ella Enchanted, my original copy that I had that I read 16 times. I lent it to somebody and they never gave it back. And I'm still really broken up about that. And I got this one, but it's an old library copy, which is ugly as shit. I don't, I want my old copy back. So this just hurts my soul owning it. So I'm getting rid of it, even though this is one of my all-time favorite books. I have it on Kindle. And this just makes me sad. All right. I still need to finish, I need to read Deviant so that I can decide if I want to read the third book in the Lifelike series. I liked the first one, Lifelike by Jay Kristoff. And this is the cool Australian edition. And we've got... Oh, I love, this is, I liked Ella Enchanted better, but I loved the print, the two princesses in the Balmar when I was a kid. And this is like a cool, nice, hardcover copy. This is the one that I would read. It's the one that I owned when I was a kid. I took good care of it. I'm proud of me. So keeping that for sure, cause it's like a nice copy too. My first ever Stephen King book, Pet Sematary. Keeping that. Another edition of Lifelike, they changed the covers. You can't get this cover anymore. The new UK covers are ugly as shit. I like this cover cause it reminds me of the difference engine. Keeping that just cause you can't get it anymore. Licensed to Quill. I got this cause Shakespeare. But also, it looks stupid. So let's get rid of it cause I'm honestly never gonna read it. St. Linnesons. I've been wanting to read this. I pre-ordered this. I still haven't read it. I need to fucking read it. Why are we so keeping that? Gullstruck Island. The only Francis Harding book I've read, Hardinge, Harding, is The Lion Tree. I don't want to read more. So keeping that. I got a Christie, oh gotta read this in October. I have so many books that I'm like, oh, read this in October. I'm gonna have like 50 books on my TBR in October, but this would be a good October read. Why is Matt Adam over here? I know for a fact, my other two Matt Adam books are over on that shelf, like over there somewhere. Yeah, I read the first Matt Adam book, Orcs and Creek, a while ago. And I have yet to read Year of the Flood. Or Matt Adam. I don't know that I'm going to cause I didn't love Orcs and Creek. I might get rid of this. Yeah, I might get rid of it. The Dark Deep. I think someone gave this to me because it's like Stranger Things. Um, okay, like I was gonna say let's get rid of it, but the more I look at it, I might be terrible, but I'm also like kind of into it. All right, I'll keep it. Someone gave me this too. The Reverie. They said they think I'd like it. This is a really nice arc too. It's like buttery. Yeah, I think that. The Red Piece. I have heard a trojus things about this, so I'm gonna get rid of that. And The Incorruptibles. I have been wanting to read this for forever because it was recommended by Patrick Rothfuss, I think. And it looks really cool. So, yep, there you go, Patrick Rothfuss. So, at some point I'll get to you. This was also sent to me and I keep forgetting I have it. So I'm gonna keep that too. For some reason, my Illuminae arc is apart from the other Illuminae books, but whatever. Vaughn Riders and Scorpion Rules. I don't even know what this is and I don't know why I bought them, so let's get rid of that. Trimontane by Ellen Kushner. I do really want to read this, but I feel like it's not the first book in whatever world this takes place in. That's why I haven't. I think Swords Point is and I have that on my Kindle. I need to read Swords Point so I can read Trimontane. All of my... Oh, wait, hang on. Oh, what is this doing here? Forest of a Thousand Lanterns by Julie C. Dow. I really like Forest of a Thousand Lanterns. It's an evil green retelling, like origin story. So good. Highly recommend keeping that for sure. And then And The Ocean Was Our Sky by Patrick Ness. I got this because it's like fancy and illustrated and shit. I guess I'll read it. I mean, Patrick Ness is pretty great, so I'll keep that. And I've got all my Ember books and I've got all the Chronicles of Prudain books and Finnegan of the Rock and Waking Bar, but I think we're at Keep and All. That was for sure. Okay, so I was very ambitious with this plan. I was going to go through like all of these bookshelves and this bookshelf and then possibly more, but we went through the boxes that were not yet unpacked. We went through one bookcase and I already have this many books all of these that I'm unhauling and I'm exhausted. I'm so pooped. You do not even know. So I think that'll do it for part one. I think I'll just do this in parts. So I realized that you didn't really get to see me like the whole point, not the whole point, but I decided I'd film this today because I did my makeup. I was like, that's not the bad go-to waste. John didn't even see me except for like the intro and now. So enjoy my watermelon sugar inspired look and appreciate the effort I've gone to to unhaul books. I need to find somewhere that's actually taking books because every used bookstore that I've checked recently, they're not taking books right now because of COVID. They're selling them, not taking them, which is something great. Anyway, that'll do it for this part and then I'll just, next time I do my makeup, I'll film the next bookcase and then the next bookcase and we'll just go through everything and we'll do it in like, I think like in three parts because like I went through the boxes and the bookcase. So going through two bookcases next time and then two more and be done so. Great. Alrighty then. Well, if you enjoyed, which I hope you did, please like and subscribe. If you hated this video and never want me to do an unhaul with me again, please let me know because I'm fucking pooped. I'm only going to do this that you want me to. If no one wants this then what am I doing it for? Certainly not doing it for my health or enjoyment. So yeah, let me know your thoughts and feelings about what I'm unhauling today about the style of this video and whatever else you want to let me know. I post videos on Saturdays and then also other random times that are not Saturdays but definitely Saturdays. So like and subscribe and I'll see you when I see you. Bye.
