 It is day three of Spookathon, and today I'm actually going to be starting off this blog with an unboxing. So I have two huge, oh, don't flash my address, two huge boxes from Indigo, and basically I've been stressed. So to help me cope, I've been buying stuff. Which is a horrible idea, 10 out of 10 don't recommend. Your bank account will get drained, which I know. But I also have some things, I sort of know what's in here. I've made a lot of orders in the past few days, which is pretty bad. But I know some of the things that are in here, and then some of the things are gifts from my mom. So I'm hoping she doesn't watch this blog and I'm telling her not to watch it. So she doesn't get full of her gifts because her birthday is next week. Yeah, next week. So we're going to start off with the little box. So what, oh, I made this order yesterday. What, how is it here? I just made this, I made this order yesterday. Indigo has great service. So the first thing I see is Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie, which I'm really excited about. I loved her book and then there were none. So I'm really excited to get this one. It was on sale and I've heard good things and I'm excited. So yeah, I ordered this. I also, why are these here? I ordered them yesterday. I was not expecting them. I also ordered the Unbecoming of Mara Dyer, the hardcover because I got the second and the third book. I've wanted to read this series for the longest time. I feel like I'll love it. The second and the third book, I ordered those in hardcover, not ordered. I bought them in hardcover at a first store and I've been waiting to see, like, find the first book and I haven't been able to find it ever. So I'm just like, I'm just going to buy the bullet and I'm going to buy the hardcover. It wasn't on sale online, which is great. So now I have my completed set of the Mara Dyer trilogy. So I can finally read it now and then they had a sale on a box set. So I bought the Six of Crows duology box set. That's really bad. I don't know why I did this. I ordered it last night on, like, a whim and it's already here. And I've wanted this series for a long time because it's right up my alley. Like, usually fantasy isn't my thing, but Six of Crows I'm so excited about because it's a heist. I heard it's really dark. My friend, Nina read it and loved it. So I'm so excited. So this is, like, the Six of Crows duology, Six of Crows, Crooked Kingdom. And then it has both editions. They're dipped pages. So then we have Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom. The box set was on sale, so I'm pretty happy with that. But I ordered these yesterday, like, Indigo is no book depository. Like, they will be here so fast, unless you're not in Canada, I assume it would take longer for you. But, yeah. And I have this huge box and I do think I know it's in here. I think it's more presents for my mom that I ordered. So let's see. Oh, I should probably show you me opening it and, like, show me opening it. Okay, fun. This is fun. Okay. Yeah, so most of these are gifts from my mom. So first thing I have here is a mug. It's all wrapped. So I'm not going to open it, but it's a mug and it says mom there on it and it has a little bear. I'm so excited to give that. She's kind of tired of me buying her mugs, but I don't care. And then when I was ordering my mom's stuff, there were these things I wanted on sale. They were comics. So the Riverdale comics. So I got volume one and two. So these were on sale. So I bought these because they were on sale. And I wanted to buy them before, but I'm, like, cheap. So yeah, clearly I'm cheap. So yeah, I got these, which is fun. And then the rest are other gifts from my mom. So this I'm so excited about. It's basically a Kate Spade recipe book. And I'm trying not to talk too loud because she can hear me. And it's the design of it. My mom has, like, a whole kitchen set with this design. So I wanted to get this because we have a little recipe stand, like a little recipe book stand so she could put this on it. And I wanted to get it for her before, but it's expensive. So I finally wanted to get it for her birthday. So and then if you spent a certain amount, you could get a blanket for a decent price. So I got her a blanket. Yeah, got her a blanket. It's just a white, cozy faux fur furrow, fun. So that was my unboxing for reading updates quickly because I bought stuff and I want to look at it all now. I am having a better day. So thank you guys so much for the positivity yesterday. I had a better day today. Update. I haven't read my two stories yet from slash girls and monster boys. But I have read about 40 or 50 pages of the Dreadful Tale Prosperity. I just got home from school, like a little bit, like maybe an hour ago. So I haven't gotten around to reading anything at home, but in between classes and like joint classes, I was reading a bit. So I ended up knocking out about 50 pages of that. So I think I'm on page 70 or 60. I don't know. But so far it's actually just starting to pick up because at first I was like so bland about it. I was like, ugh. But it's starting to like pick up. So I hopefully it will get better from there. But yeah. This is so yellow. This is what happens when you film this early and there's no daylight. I love it when there's no, oh wait let me show you. I love it. And it's pitch black out. Oh yeah, it's three by the way. I find it funny in my day two vlog, everyone's telling me like, go to bed. Um, yeah, five is good for me. So yeah, see this usually happens and I've been up since two. And my lips are chopped. Don't mind that. Okay, so today, I don't know what's going to happen. Schoolwork I'm pretty good with and I, I don't know, like it's not like we have a ton going on in school today so I might not go. We'll see. So I might do work at home because there's not much to do today. Most of it is work periods and I can work from home. But we'll see. I mean, oh, last night I read my story from Slash of Girls and Monster Boys, the one I didn't read too because I was so tired. I was participating in the little Instagram live stream thingy that Daniel and Rita Five does, which I love you guys should check him out. He's great. Um, so doing that, so I was reading Slash of Girls and Monster Boys for it. And yeah, I read the story by Megan Shepherd. I think it's story five I'm on. So today I have to read three, which is fine. But this one was good. It was literally like a game with death and that's all I'm going to say. And it was pretty good. Like at first it took me a bit of adjusting to get used to the writing, but I liked it. So yeah, fun, um, plans. I want to get maybe like 200 pages into the Dreadful Tale Prosperity and if I'm feeling it, finish it. But if not, honestly, just get like a solid 200 pages then maybe we'll see, um, because realistically I'm probably going to nap today because your girl got like four hours of sleep. So yeah, which is usually good for me, but I'll still nap anyways. So right now, I think literally my whole house used to be walking around at like three. I'm going to go and I think I'm going to get a drink like I wanted to your coffee, but I'm going to get my shy cold beverage thingy that I have in the fridge. I'm going to do some editing maybe. My appearance in these blogs is quite something, but I got two more packages just now and I was actually reading in bed, but the doorbell rang and there was packages. So I'm like, yes, you guys, I had a problem. I'm not lying. This is the book outlet and then it did go. So I got my scissors. I know what this is. I think it's my manga that I ordered the other day because there was a sale. I think unless I ordered something else, I don't remember. Okay. Not cooperating. Great. Yes. Okay. This is what I thought thingies that come in them and then I Tokyo Ghoul, they had a sale on the manga. It was literally 40% off, which is great. So I've read volume one and two. I've read volume one and two, but I didn't own the rest, which I didn't buy all of them, but I bought some of them. So I bought volume three, this was four, volume four, volume five, and volume six. They were all 40% off and I've been meaning to get more of this series. It's just they're 15 bucks each, which is really expensive. So the fact that they were 40% off kind of made me get them. So I'm happy they're here, which maybe I can actually read these for the read of thought too because it is like ghouls and monsters and blood and human flesh and all that good stuff. So I might read those for that. And then this package is huge. I think I ordered like 15 bucks, which is fun. I'm sorry. I look gross. Honestly, I feel like shit today, like physically. So I'm dead and lying down. My cat was here sitting with me and then he saw me bring two boxes in and he just left. He's like, nope, pass, especially because I put them on the bed and he was lying there and he's like, excuse me, no, I'm leaving. I've actually never ordered from Book Outlet online. I've been to the warehouse, but I've never ordered online. Okay, so this is my thing with all my books. First thing I see in here is the Tom and Ockers. They tell me knockers by Stephen Kang. These are like the, that edition, just the nice edition. And I already have a copy of the Tom and Ockers, but it's like a mass market. So I wanted like a nice edition. So I got this. And then also in that edition, I got the dark half, which I haven't read or heard much about, but I'm back. I'm back from the dead and you don't seem glad to see me at all. You ungrateful son of a bitch. That's cool. Just sitting on the back. Okay. Yeah. I'm excited to read that. Next, what I see here is Flawed by Cecilia Ahern. I heard good things about it, like one choice will cost her everything. If you break the rules, you'll be punished and like, I don't know if you're flawed. You get like a stamped slash tattoo. They are flawed. They do not speak to them. They do not help them or you will be punished. Okay. So that's fun. This is the new paperback that came out. I actually think it's actually kind of cool looking. So yeah, the sequel's already out, but I remember when it came out like the first book. And then I also have, I'm so excited, I have Behind Her Eyes by Sarah Pinborrow. And I don't exactly remember what this one was about, but I heard someone talk about it. I think it was Chelsea from Chelsea Dallin Reads and she talked just about the plot. It sounded so incredibly interesting. Yeah, I don't really remember what it's about now, but I remember as soon as I heard about it, I wanted it so bad. Okay. So then next thing I have here is Beauty and the Beast. I was so shocked to see this on the site. So I'm going to open it. I have the Peter Pan in this edition. They're really fancy, like interactive editions. I really like them. They come in like plastic wrap. I only have the one for Peter Pan, but I love it. I've never actually read the original Beauty and the Beast, which is interesting. It'd be really cool to get all of these actually, like all of these editions. Because I know they have one for the Jungle Book as well. I'm not sure what other ones they have though. So we have Beauty and the Beast. Oh my God, it's so pretty. Look. Yeah, it's gorgeous. And they always have little like interactive stuff in here, so this is probably like a note. Nope. It's a map. Map of Rich City. Okay. And there's little like paper and stuff to like hold it, keep it new. Then there's this thing. I don't know what this is. Open. Okay, fun. I don't know. There's just a bunch of like random interactive stuff. There's like photos in here as well. There's little things in here. So yeah, it's illustrated. It's really pretty. I'm really glad I got it. It was a really good price considering how much it is regular. Okay. So the next stack, I got Nerve by Jan Ryan, Jean Ryan. This is about this game and stuff. I watched the movie a little while ago and I did enjoy the movie. It's not the best movie out there, but it was like entertaining. And I think the book would be fun and it was like a few bucks. So I just got it. Next to that, I also have Passenger by Alexander Bracken. This is like a time travel kind of book, so I got this. Next up is All the Rage by Courtney Summers. And I know this one deals with sexual assault, which is why I got it. I also got A Shadow Bright and Burning by Jessica Kluis, delivered that service. So basically A Shadow Bright and Burning, it's a fantasy book, but it's about this girl who can burst enough flames and stuff. I read the first little bit on my, it was really cheap on Kobo, so on my e-reader it was like two bucks to buy. So I got it and I read the first bit and I liked it and the hard cover was a good price, so I thought I would get it. I still want to finish it, but I'll probably finish it physically then on Kobo. This I'm so excited for. This is what we saw by Erin Hartzler. This deals with sexual assault as well, but I've heard such amazing things. Jesse from Jesse the Reader talks about this book so highly and I heard it's really hard-hitting and apparently it's really good and doesn't get enough praise. So this I'm so excited for. We're getting to the end of the stack. Okay, then I also have This Adventure Ends by Emma Mills. I've heard good things about her stuff, but holy hell this... Like I knew it was like this, so I was like, I gotta get the hard cover because of it. Salon isn't expecting to fall in with a group of friends when she moves from New York to Florida, especially not a group of friends so intense, so layered with private tragedies and secret codes and so while consuming yet, that's exactly what happens. Okay, sounds fun. Covers beautiful. We're near the end of the stack. It makes me sad because it's like Christmas. I might make another order. Please convince me not to in the comments. Okay, then I also got The Love That Split the World by Emily Henry. I wanted this since it came out. I think it came out last year sometime, which the reason why I wanted this one was because Lala from Xenlau talks so highly about it and it's like I think magical realism slash contemporary. It's a debut. I don't know. I heard it's fun. Gang covers gorgeous, wanted to get the hard cover. And then the last two books in here are First We Have a Dangerous Girl by Abigail Hayes, Friends for Life or Death. Okay, so this is like a really popular thriller. It gets like a good amount of buzz. Apparently it's really shocking. So maybe I'll read this. How long is this? Well, I mean it's 385 with like big ish font. So I don't know. Maybe if, well, I'm not going to finish what I want to speak with on, but if I do, then I can read that. And then last but not least, I have Tonight The Streets Are Hours by Lala Sayles. I read her book This Song Will Save Your Life and I really liked it. So I wanted to get this as well and I was waiting to find the hard cover and book outlet had it. So yeah. So there you guys have it. That was my quick little haul for a reading update. I haven't read much today. And it's like 12.50. So it's almost 1 PM. I've honestly just been chilling today. And I actually finished editing my review for The Godfather, which I'm not going to upload till all my Spookathon vlogs are up because I don't want it to be like a line of Spookathon vlogs. And then in the middle, there's just like a random review. So I'm going to wait so that it looks more pleasing. I think I'm going to wait because I'm really happy with that review. So I'm excited for you guys to see it. But yeah. So for reading updates, I'm currently reading another story from Slash Your Girls and Monster Boys. I'm reading the one by Megan Shepard, which right now is getting really good. It reminds me of The Merciless a little bit. And at first it was really angsty and annoying, but I'm really liking it now. It's really took a turn. So I'm excited to finish that story now because the bail person came when I was reading in bed. So I literally went to the door like this. I was like, hi. And like she'd never seen me too. So it's like, did she? Who is she? But anyways, yeah, thank you guys for watching.
