 We have got boxes upon boxes of stuff to unbox in this video so I hope you're ready because I'm not. Hello everyone, welcome back to my channel. Today is so exciting because we are going to be doing a massive book haul. I think this is, I think this is my biggest book haul I've ever done. We have got so many books here, we've also got so many things to unbox, so many things to unbox. I am so excited but first, oh my god! Okay, so when I saw this email, I almost cried. I'm not gonna lie to you, I almost cried. It's to do with the sponsor for today's video. I have literally, I've manifested this sponsorship. I'm so excited. The sponsor of today's video is Book of the Month. I have wanted to work with Book of the Month since I started my channel. I've always wanted Book of the Month so badly, but they don't ship to the UK so I couldn't buy it myself, but they reached out to me and asked if I wanted to work with them and it's literally my biggest like dream. I've always wanted to work with them so I am so excited. Okay, so we've got the box. I'm gonna unbox it and we're gonna see the legendary Book of the Month blue box and I'm so excited. I've been waiting to open this for like a week. So if you don't know why I'm like so excited I'm literally screaming. Book of the Month is this amazing like online service for readers. So every month they have five new releases and hard cover for you to pick from. You choose one and they send it directly to you and you can get your first Book of the Month book for $9.99 which is crazy for a new release hardcover using the code full5 and I also have a personalized link in the description which you can use. So it works out cheaper than like buying these books when they come out from anywhere else. I think it's an amazing deal and I love Book of the Month so much because they're always championing and like searching for new and emerging authors. But also here's the thing right when you go back and you look at the books they bought out from these new and emerging authors, those books ended up being some of the biggest books of the year. What sorcery do they have finding these books? I want to know. I want to know what sorcery they have. It reminds me, this is a niche reference but if anyone knows what the Brit Awards is there's this award for like a new and emerging artist and literally like the people who won that award go on to be massive. Like Adele won it back in the day before she was Adele. Book of the Month reminds me of that you know they they discover authors who may be like kind of new and emerging but they end up being the biggest books of the year. At the moment it only ships in the US if you're international you can't yet get it but we can all just appreciate the joy and the excitement of Book of the Month. I feel like so let's talk about the books that have come and that I've received all five of September's books. Oh my god the one in the box they know me they know which one I would pick. They know which one I would pick. Oh my god how'd they know me? How'd they know me? Well today is going to be the best day ever. Actually we need to just talk about this. I know this is going on pages but my love for Book of the Month I got someone to send me the US version of the guest list or the Book of Month edition because I love the guest list and Book of the Month so much that just proves my dedication. Anyway so this is Rock Paper Scissors by Alice Feeney. This is a thriller where this couple go on this... are you ready for this? Are you ready for this? Remote remote anniversary getaway. It starts to go wrong I think and there's secrets and it starts to tear their marriage apart. I am really excited for this. This is kind of I think going to be the one that I read first out of all of these. Hang on I'm going to get all the books out of this box and then we can talk about them all. Oh my god I love them look at all of them. So this is The Neighbor's Secret by Elle Allison Heller. This is about the suburban book club. We all know the vibes, quaint houses, you know picket fences and a vandal starts attacking the area and these like people's lives are kind of upended and they're like violence? Yeah us? That's not supposed to happen. Next we've got Beautiful Country by Chanjuli Wang. This is a memoir from like a child's perspective about a Chinese family struggling in the shadow of the American dream. So it's about kind of them moving to America and struggling here and it sounds really really interesting. I'm really excited to read this one. Then we've got two kind of well ones are contemporary ones are romance. We've got the sweetest remedy by Jane Igiharo. Oh my god these books are so gorgeous can we just talk about that? Cheese. Beautiful. So in this one a woman attends the funeral of her father that she never knew. She meets this new extended family and she also meets a love interest there. It's about her kind of reconnecting with her Nigerian side and as well with herself and then we have got the love hypothesis by Ali Hazelward. This is a romance and it's like fake dating between these two scientists. A lot of people have been reading this lately and it sounds really really good so let me know if you read it. So that is all of the September books. Thank you so much to Book of the Month for sending these to me. I am so excited to read so many of them and I mean just look at the Book of the Month things at the top. I just love them. I just love them so much. I'm so happy to own these and make sure you lose the link in the description to go check the Book of the Month out and use the code FULLFIRE to get your first book for only $9.99. I think what we should do now is go through all the other unboxing kind of stuff and then we'll go into like all the other various books I've acquired. So the next box is from Electric Monkey. I'm so excited to open this one. This is a book and some goodies I believe so let's... I really packed this book time. Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ. Oh my god I can't get in. It's a cute mug. I love mugs. Oh wow look at that. That is so gorgeous. This mug says the mystic rose on it where magic runs deep but secrets run deeper. That's probably to do with the book. Then we've got this gorgeous box that the book has come in. We were all flames lit from the same match and I'm the only one still burning. So we've got a nice bookmark. We've got a candle. Oh my god let me put the wick up. Oh that smells lovely and look at like how glittery and gorgeous that is. What scent is it? Sea salt, moss covered trees and magic. Oh my god I'm definitely I'm gonna go burn this straight away whilst I edit this video. So this is Dark and Shallow Lies by Ginny Meyers Sane. This is a new YA thriller. It was pitched for fans of Holly Jackson aka the author of A Good Girl's Guy to Murder so I was like sign me up. Where do I need to sign? But this is about this girl who returns this town in Louisiana where I think she grew up and her childhood friend went missing a few months earlier and she doesn't believe that that could possibly be true and she makes this connection between her friend disappearance and some grizzly murders 13 years earlier and it just sounds it sounds crazy but I'm really excited to read it. I think it's gonna be like have amazing vibes. I think the setting in like Louisiana has the potential to be really eerie and like haunting. I'm so excited with this you guys. I told you this book was the best yet but I say that about every book called. Every book I'm like this is the best one yet and then somehow we keep topping ourselves. What can I say? Okay now I'm gonna top. Okay I have got to go open the window. I'm sorry if we start to hear noises but it is so hot in here today. I have no choice. Be happy. Next next I I actually have to prepare myself for this one. This is another when I saw this email come in I kind of I screamed a bit and I it took me a long time to get over it. If you watched my Welly's authors one hit wonders for me video reading authors I'd read once before and given five starts and reading from them again you'll know I read the project by Courtney Summers and Courtney Summers saw it and emailed me saying you know thank you and asked if I wanted her to send me the Barnes and Noble special edition of the project and I said yes. I really can't believe that she saw it. You know she's one of my favorite authors and it's just a bit crazy so I've been waiting to open this as well and oh my god I just can't really believe it. Oh my god oh my god look at it oh my god look at it oh my god it's amazing look at it oh my gosh I gave the project five stars spoiler that if you didn't know that um oh my god it's amazing oh my gosh she's written a note that used to me in a nice little note on the inside. I loved the project I'm so excited to have this edition I absolutely love it I need to redo all my shelves I'm gonna get a new shelf I'm gonna rearrange my entire room soon because I especially have run out of room on my thriller shelf and when I get my new shelves this is gonna be face out I am just I just can't believe it so thank you so much and yeah oh my god I'm so happy. Then the last bit of unboxing everyone the last bit of unboxing before we get into like the 30 other books that we need to talk about so this is the August where is she? Fairy Loot box.

Anyway so I'm in control but I'm out of control and I'm also um controlled so in a way I'm everything oh we have got a pencil case I use the other pencil case I got from fairy lute every day this one

pronounced I look at the spread edges oh my god I love when fairy lute do two books in one all I know about this is that it's sapphic I have been very much interested in this and I'm excited to own it because it's kind of a book that I had seen a lot and been interested in but you know like I'm trying to limit myself which is hard I'm trying to limit myself I think it's something to do with like a ghost like the afterlife like someone dies but then like they still have a relationship after the afterlife I don't know but that is so exciting look at the spray I love pink is my favorite color I can't deny it pink is my favorite color and look at the spray edges shall we all cry yes and then what is the hardcover book for this man these hollow vows by Lexie Lexie Ryan look at the suns look at

oh let me know if you've read this or if you've heard anything about it we've got a map I'm a hoe for a map we all know hoe for a map fucking love maps that is all the unboxing things we needed to do where should we start let's start with the books that publishers have sent to me first from tour I received two super exciting upcoming releases first along the sort why see by adobe baker aka shawna maguire and then where the drown girls go by shawna maguire this comes out in january 2022 and this comes out in october 2021 so this is the sequel to over the woodwood wall this is a children's series inspired by a series mentioned in middle game by shawna maguire I haven't read the first one yet but I'm hoping I'm going to read them both the soon and then where the drown girls go by shawna maguire is the I don't even know what number in the way with children series seven I really don't know one of my favorite series ever I absolutely love this series I still haven't read across the green grass fields which is the one before this but this one is following Cora I believe who I really enjoyed in come tumbling down I really enjoyed Cora's character and come tumbling down so thank you so much for both of these shawna maguire is one of my favorite authors in the world and I can't believe I got this I knew this was arriving but this arrived with it and I almost cried like it was an emotional moment then um a few that I have kind of mentioned already we have got the spirit engineer by aj west this is a kind of horror set in 1940s belfast 1914 belfast sorry as the spiritual movement is gaining momentum and we've got the scientist who we follow who is a skeptic he doesn't believe in any of that stuff until he does I don't think he's a particularly trustworthy narrator so I'm really intrigued about that I'm going to be reading this really soon and then a book I've actually just started is a marvellous light by Freya mask I started this last night on reading sprints my patrons this is about this kind of magical secret society it reminds me of like an adult version of amari and the night brothers you've got this like secret magical bureau we've got seemingly this man who's been thrust into kind of the uh governmental role for it who didn't know magic existed and the person who works in that role may not be a magician themselves but they're always supposed to kind of maybe have a sibling who was a magician so they're supposed to know and he knows nothing and he needs the help of his like kind of counterpart his correspondent he's very cold and dry and reluctant to help I read that it was like kind of red white and royal blue but fantasy historical it's that I think in Edwardian England so I'm excited I'm excited I hope I'm gonna love it that was sent to me by bookbreak and two others that was sent to me by bookbreak were under the whispering door by TJ Klune this is one of my most anticipated upcoming releases this is by the author of house in the cerulean sea it's about a guy who I think dies and meets the grim reaper and has a chance to like relive his death he resolves to use the time he has left to experience a lifetime in only seven days I've heard like mix things about it some people have loved it some people have said you know it's not quite as good as house in the cerulean sea next we've got the woods are always watching by Stephanie Perkins this is a horror I think I've never read any Stephanie Perkins I never even read Anna in the french kiss but this is like her second kind of slashery horror and this one these friends go on a three-day hike deep into the woods a detour of trail leads them into a waking nightmare and then into something far worse this is really short so I have hopes it's going to be just like super fast paced it's literally just under 200 pages so I'm hoping it's gonna be like super fast paced really fun to read I'm very excited for this have you read there's someone in your house by Stephanie Perkins let me know if you have on what you thought of it it didn't get the best reviews but something about these books I'm really drawn to okay we're getting there frenzies then oh my god

appreciative of you selling this to me this is about Jake Livingstone who is a medium he can see ghosts and I think up until now it's been like fairly harmless they've never really interacted with him

fantasy then next we've got some books that I bought myself firstly we have got as good as dead by Holly Jackson the finale the finale to good girls go to murder I'm sad I'm sad that it's coming to an end but I'm also like terrified to read this because a lot of people have said like I've seen people tweeting I have to look myself in a dark room for like 10 years after reading that book like why what was the reason I'm not sure I want to know so in this we have Pip who is this kind of amateur detective and in this book she's really beaten down and struggling emotionally after some of her past cases and she gets a stalker someone starts stalking her and taunting her and it's about her trying to solve her own case for once says on the back dead girl walking so I'm terrified I don't want to read it but I do but I'm terrified then one I'm going to be reading in an upcoming video is Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas I don't really know much about this it was super popular last year I know something about this guy like summoning the ghost of his cousin is it the ritual goes wrong and I don't I don't really know much about it but everyone who's read it seemed to have enjoyed it so I'm going to be reading it soon I don't know much about it because I've had to pick it up for a certain video I'm not going to say anything but then quickly to that you would have seen in my most recent video so I won't talk about them too much my most recent vlog where Riley Marie picked what I read I read some of her favorite books I read a Dario of Blood by ST Gibson and They Never Learned by Lane Fargo these are both like perfect autumnal reads I thought this one is about one of Dracula's Brides killing him and this one is a thriller about a professor who murders shitty men essentially so check out that video if you want to see what I thought of those and then finally you I've technically already hauled these books so I want to speak about them for too long but these are all the books
