 So today we're gonna be doing my Christmas book haul. I've got books for my family as well as quite a few. You can't, I don't think you can see them actually. But from you guys I think I assume and I just want to say, before we get into it, such a big thank you to anyone who has sent me anything. You do not need to but I appreciate it so so much and I'm just so thankful. As the year comes to a close, you know, you start to think more about what you're thankful for and I'm just so thankful to have you guys and to have this audience and I love you very much. So without further ado let's just get into the book haul. I cannot wait any longer. I am so fucking excited. Christmas? Christmas just like gets me. I love Christmas. It's just the vibe. It's the vibe. The girls that get it get it and the girls that don't don't. If you don't get it I guess you're just not that girl. So where do we begin? Oh my god. Okay hang on. So I've got some books for my parents. I'm gonna save the rest from them to the end because they don't mind going at the end. But there are these three books that I know they got me and I know what they are because I bought them. I ordered them. I want to open these first because when these got announced so many of you were tagging me in the comments being like Megan you need to get these and I wasn't gonna get them because I was broke at the time and my mum was like do you want us to get them for you for Christmas. So they arrived a couple weeks ago and I have not even peeked. I haven't even had a look. So this is my first moment like viewing these in person. This is the fairy-loot special editions of the Bear and the Nightingale trilogy which a lot of you know is my absolute favourite fantasy series ever. I absolutely adore it. Finally I'm gonna have gorgeous special editions that match. I'm so excited. So let's unwrap them all three of them and then look at them because I have no way of knowing in which order I'm gonna unwrap them. Oh my god I'm gonna cry. I'm actually gonna cry. Is it the first one? Oh no this is the last one. Oh my god look at it. Oh my god it is stunning. What? What do you think? What do you think? Thank you. Thank you very much. Look at it. I don't know which one I'm gonna put face out on my shelves out of the three. Oh this makes me so excited to reread this. Oh my god the font is the same. Oh my god I love it. I really love the end pages. I'm gonna cry. I'm actually gonna cry. Oh my god. Oh my god it's just like I can't. Oh my god. Okay hold up. I love this one. Girl in the Tower. Oh my god I love this one. The woman was too stunned to speak. I am so happy. I actually can't. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I love them. Oh my god I am so happy. I've not always been the kind of person that's like oh I need special editions but I have like my editions aren't matching of this series. I have two paperbacks and one like mid-sized hardbacks. It's always been really awkward to show on my bookshelves. I've already reread these once in my life and I'm so excited to reread them again with these gorgeous editions. I just actually can't believe it. They are so gorgeous. There's so many special touches so many little details on all of the covers that just like beautifully represent the story. I'm in love. I'm gonna cry. I am so happy. I am so happy. I absolutely love these so thank you mom and dad for getting these for me. I'm gonna put one of them on my fancy shelf face out, my favorite shelf and then the other two next to it. Tell me which of these do you think I should put the face out? Just the Bear and Nightingale because it's like the first one or do you think one of these two? I don't know. I don't know which was my favorite anymore. I think I would say Wind of the Witch was my favorite but now I just don't know. There we go. They're my first Christmas present. Okay let's unbox some of the ones you've sent to me. I assume. I don't know who these are from. Okay. Okay let's see what this is. Oh my god. So we have got My Heart is a Chainsaw by Stephen Graham Jones. Oh I'm so excited. So I have read The Only Good Indians by Stephen Graham Jones and I enjoyed it and I really want to read this. I know it's had a mixed opinions but I'm so excited because I know it's like Kayla's one of her favorite books of the year. Oh my god I'm so excited. I'm so excited. This is a horror following this girl who like I think she's like obsessed with slasher films and like she starts like assigning roles for people in her town like she's observing them and she's like you'd be this person in a slasher film and like assigning who they'd be kind of weird but like we kind of vibe and Stephen Graham Jones writing is just something very different than what I've experienced before and I really enjoyed The Only Good Indians so I'm so happy to own this. Oh it's from Karis from my Patreon. She's Merry Christmas Meg. Oh thank you so much Karis that is so kind of you. Oh my god we're off to such a good start. I wanted to own this one for ages. This was one I almost like pre-ordered that book. Okay let's do another one. Oh okay okay okay okay so we've got Finley Donovan is killing it so I've heard a lot of you telling me that I'm gonna love this. I think she like becomes a for hire assassin. Am I right? Listen do not take that as Bible but I that's what I've heard about it. Nothing that you say with the details is gonna change my mind and I've heard it's just like a very campy fun murder mystery type of book. Like it's not like serious it's like jokey and fun so I put this on my wishlist because so many of you in comments like on my murder mystery videos have told me I'm gonna love this. Like this has been one of the highest recommended books to me from you guys that I haven't heard a lot about like in other places and this was gifted to me by Claire. Did Merry Christmas Megan? I hope you love this book as much as I did so Claire highly recommend it as well so thank you so much Claire. Very exciting oh my god it's Christmas everyone it's Christmas. Oh my god I'm so happy. Okay let's do one more Amazon package and then we'll do a few family ones. Oh my goodness let me make sure I get the note. No! Caraval by Stephanie Garba. This is one of the kind of YA books I have wanted to read for the longest time. I think this has got like a game element to it. Once a year the infamous master legend hosts Caraval only open to those who have been invited so it's like a game element set in like this kind of cart like circus carnival I don't know Caraval. There's a lot of the words beginning with C I don't know which ones apply. The rules don't apply. This is one I've always wanted to start. I've heard so many good things and it's like such a classic series I've always wanted to read it but you know my finger series sometimes I try it. There's certain series I don't let myself start but I'm very happy to finally own this and maybe start this series. So this is from Anna from my Patreon. Anna says, Merry Christmas Megan I hope you have an amazing holiday you deserve it for all of the amazing content you sport us with this year oh my god say hi to the cats from me thank you so much Anna that is so that is so kind let me finish what I was saying but I love the spine that is not what I expected the spine to look like from the front like I feel like they're different but I really like the spine very very excited another one that a lot of people have told me I'm gonna love and I just received um what's it called the once no once upon a broken heart by Stephanie Garber which is I've heard some people say it's still set in the same universe so I'm not sure if I should read this first and then read that or if I'm okay to read that first I don't know but that's made me even more excited to read this. Okay let's do a few family ones. I'm gonna open ones from grandparents first so I've got three from my grandparents and one from Tom's grandma I'll open this one first firstly how nice is a Tom's family wrap their presents they like they're on another level to rest of us I don't know if she knows I even have a wish list so I'm very intrigued to see what's going to be that makes me even I mean she may know but um this makes me even more excited to open it because I like much I love having a wish list like kind of essentially picking what I get sometimes it's really fun to see what people think you would like okay this is something oh this is not for my wish list this makes me even more excited okay okay unwell women a journey through medicine and myth in a man-made world oh my god I'm gonna eat it up I am gonna eat it up yes and yes yes and yes I am so excited what is this the author unpacks the roots of the perpetual misunderstanding mystification and misdiagnosis of women's bodies illnesses and pain I'm very excited to read this this is my kind of thing I love books about women throughout history that has been forgotten or brushed under the carpet and this is kind of along the same vein kind of unpacking how women have been mistreated throughout history oh my god this is such a good pic go grandma oh my god oh it's got pictures as well I love this this is amazing oh my god also I love the cover that's like hauntingly beautiful with like this the women's spine wow oh my god this is such a different book I'm so excited to read this this sounds so interesting I definitely want to read more nonfiction next year I actually checked last night I was on live on my patreon and I was like how many nonfiction do I read this year I read eight I think 12 is going to be a goal because I think a goal for this year was that I wanted to read at least one a month so we're gonna actually try and fulfill that next year part of me wants to set it at like 15 but that might be too much but I definitely want to read more nonfiction because like I listen I've spoken about this before I used to read every other book nonfiction every other book I used to read was nonfiction and then like I fell down the fiction rabbit hole but oh my god what a good choice this is so interesting I've never heard of it before but it sounds like the kind of thing I would love okay and then we'll get into these three which my grandparents got me they always pick so well nanny and papi always picks so so well with what to get me they just know because they watch a lot of my videos so they always know kind of what I want the most so I always think their selections are like the best okay oh yes it unites us that brings us together it's about the christmas spirit it is about the holiday season uh it's about jesus oh my god I am so excited this looks so different than what I thought it would I didn't even notice his heart back so we have got murder isn't easy the forensics of agatha christie by carla valentine I am so excited this is all talking about agatha christie's forensic expertise she was basically an expert in poison she I believe she was a nurse during the war the first world war maybe and so she picked up a lot of knowledge of poisons and that's why in her books like her forensic knowledge is really really good I may be telling a lie here she invented a phrase that we now use something about the cake hang on oh scene of the crime I feel like she invented the phrase scene of the crime I will I will google after filming and tell you if I'm right or not but anyway I'm just very intrigued about kind of her knowledge and what she learned through this I'm hoping there's not going to be any spoilers in this because obviously I've not completed reading agatha christie I've only read like eight agatha christie's maybe so I hope there's no spoilers but yeah super intrigued by this because that's what really made her books popular early on is kind of like her forensic knowledge her poison knowledge and so yeah super deeper excited what a great choice oh my god another like kind of nonfiction as well how by the way let's just have a little interlude how if you celebrate christmas how did your christmas go let me know down below let me know what books you got next book I told you they always pick so well they just pick what I know with I want without knowing I want that you know what would

about it it has a queer romance in it that I absolutely love I don't want to talk about it because I don't want to spoil it that's why I don't want to talk about where it's progressed because I don't want to spoil it but yeah this is the final book girls of fate and fury and let me fucking tell you I feel sick I can't read it I can't I can't because Natasha nyang is gonna put us through some shit

font is small this has been such a popular book this year and I'm just very very excited also the title in my dreams I hold a knife I love yeah I feel like it's been the most popular like

you so much Fiona this is so exciting okay so this is a very small book it is called your guides to not getting murdered in a quaint english village by Maureen Johnson and Jay Cooper I feel like Jay Cooper's the illustrator so this is a really fun book I've heard so many good things about it Maureen Johnson is the narrator of narrator the author of the Trudy Divya series if you've read that this is kind of making fun of like how many murder mystery books are set in quaint english villages like obviously Agatha Christie likes to set a lot of her books there that kind of thing and so I'm just so excited it's a very small book and a lot of it is illustrations but it's kind of just talking about like all the different traits that exist within this kind of genre of like murders in quaint english villages so I don't think this is going to take too long to read this is going to be perfect for like a read-along or something but I have been so so so so excited to read this I feel like

450 pages oh it's like 480 pages okay um exciting oh my god I love the cover as well what a gorgeous cover what was that sorry I'm getting too over excited give me a moment but we have got within these wicked walls by Lauren Blackwood aka the I think this is why I a fantasy that Brittany Spears was reading a couple months weeks ago like she posted like how much she loved this book our protagonist is an exorcist hired to cleanse households of the evil eye she would be hired that is if her mentor hadn't thrown her out before she could earn her license I don't really know the plot of this this was just one of my like most kind of anticipated 2021 releases because I've heard so many good things about it I love the cover I believe it is a Jane air retelling which intrigues me I've never read Jane air but I always love retellings and like reimaginings and remixes of stuff super excited and listen if it's good enough for Brittany Spears it's good enough for me oh my god we got more of the snowflake okay what is this oh okay a fun one this is really fun oh my god she's so cute excuse me the girls are gonna get it and the girls that don't don't Alexa tell me I'm stunning Alexa tell me I'm stunning very stunning we have rise to the Sun by Leah Johnson how exciting this is Leah Johnson's release that came out this year I believe it's about two girls who meet each other at a music festival and fall in love they fall in love I really enjoyed you should see me in a crown by Leah Johnson that came out last year I read it last year and so I just was like listen Leah Johnson is obviously a contemporary YA writer that I really enjoy so I knew I wanted to continue reading her stuff this isn't too long either very exciting okay and then my parents as well as getting me The Bear and the Nightingale they got me three other books let's see what have we got here oh this is a good one they've done well okay exciting so this is The Village of Eight Graves by Sashi Yokomizo so if you've heard me speak about this author a lot this is a super famous Japanese murder mystery author think Agatha Christie think Urquiparo with this like expansive detective series they're kind of being slowly translated into English so I've read The Honjin Murders and I own the Inugami Curse and then this is the next one that they translated I love the cover I love the green and the gold like it just looks amazing I think it's about like this old massacre and there's like fears that like a curse could be existing or something but I just put it on my list because I loved what I really really enjoyed The Honjin Murders so this is like an author that I definitely want to continue reading because it's super interesting as well like reading this very famous Japanese translated fiction murder mystery and it's like really interesting as someone who loves murder mystery to see the ways that differs and the ways that it's the same so oh my god what a good one they did well with that one this one's really small what is this one I get excited when I see small books well guess what people I get excited about small things oh yes okay good one good one good one I got the Christie Peril at Endhouse oh my god how exciting so this is the next in the Urquiparo series that I need to read again it don't know too much about it Urquiparo is investigating a murder that's all I need to know I'm just reading them in order this one's a short one though only 230 pages super short but I love Agatha Christie most of the time no not most of the time half the time I love Agatha Christie half time I don't but as someone who loves murder mysteries so so much and loves the genre I really enjoy slowly reading her catalogue because she's like a master at it she's like the most well-known murder mystery author so I really enjoy reading her stuff kind of slowly let's see what else they got oh my god you guys we got Royal Assassin by Robin Hobb a big boy I reckon my dad got this for me oh it does smell nice this one though oh um oh that one smells really good it's getting weird this is the second in the what's it even called Farsia trilogy that's what it's called um we're following Fitz who is an illegitimate son of the like king in waiting I guess and a lot of things happen to him his father abdicates his line his place in the line and he moves into court and we see him growing up from like a young boy into kind of a young man in the first book and this is the next book again I don't know too much about the plot and I don't think I could really tell you anyway because it'd be spoilers for the first one but I did really enjoy it I gave the first one four stars Robin Hobb is a really great writer like it's one of those books you read and you're like oh my god you're such a great author such a great writer you're plotting this so well so I'm very excited to read the rest in this series I'm hoping as well I'm gonna finish this trilogy in the next year hopefully the Farsia trilogy I'm hoping I'll finish this as well because this is intimidating and then like I feel like I won't start a Robert the next series the the ship one that's called the mad ship trilogy maybe um I won't start that trilogy for a while like I'll take a little break but I feel like I'll need to read this quite quickly so I am aiming for this to be one of the series that I finish in the new year as well I just look behind me and I have another one from them that I didn't unwrap so let's see what this one is oh my god I almost missed out a present oh and it's a fun one okay so we have Never Saw Me Coming by Vera Kurian this is about Chloe who is a psychopath she's part of a secret clinical study run by the diversity cycle psychology department there's like a string of murders on campus and it becomes clear that the murders are linked to the study I'm really intrigued about this because I feel like our protagonist may be unreliable and I've never read a book like
