This is a very cool idea, because I truly have NO IDEA about anything involving literary fiction BUT I like the ones that I read. Like the unhaul stuff as well! Can't believe barnes and noble is doing that! You do a good job at reading and unhauling things that don't work well for you. Great video!

Thank you! I think I’m getting to the end of a batch of pre-order shipments so hopefully I’ll start seeing what my haul totals really are normally. With lit fic I think it’s more normalized to just return books, because you’ll be reading a book and suddenly realize that the author thinks it’s edgy to be racist or whatever, so there’s no guilt in taking it back. I really love seeing the collections people have in the vintage horror community, I’d love to see you do hauls more often! I wanna see everyone’s stuff! Thanks for watching!! 👻💜💀🍂🍂🎃🎃🍂🌺🌺👻👻

WWOW the cover of Before the Devil Knows your here looks so beautiful, Im so excited to hear your thoughts! OMGGGG that security sticker, that is unacceptable!!!!! WOW I need to be on the lookout for that when I pickup books from BnN oh my gosh! Ive heard a lot about the book that wouldn't burn but I dont do well with overly wordy books with not a lot happening, I feel like it could end up being a dnf for me! I felt the SAME way about Schraders Chord!!!! HAHHA i can see that thing too about the author trying too hard to be cool and feeling too much second hand embarrassment 😅😅😅😅 The Bellwoods game and The Dolllmaker of Krakow look AMAZING! adding these to my tbr now!

The Devil Knows You’re Here just might be in my next unhaul vlog 🙊 The cover was the best thing about it. I really don’t know what Barnes is doing lately! The books in the stores have security stickers, but if you order them, there’s a good chance they’ll come banged up and you’ll end up exchanging it in store anyway…but then that one will have the sticker! I need to spend a whole day with The Dollmaker of Krakow! And Bellwoods Game was such a fun fall read! Thank you for being here and let me know if you end up reading any of these! 👻🍂💜🌺🎃🎃💀💀🌺💜🍂👻

I loved seeing all of the books you hauled and unhauled! All of the books that you hauled have such gorgeous covers 😍

Ooo I loved this style of video - very unique and original! Also, what is it about unhaul videos that I enjoy far more than a haul video? 😂 I think it’s the efficient-maximizer in me 😂 I am so like you where I don’t want read books lingering in my home, especially if I wasn’t in love with it. I know it’s not good to return a Barnes and noble book but oh my gosh, that book looked tore up!

Thank you! Beautifully Bookish Bethany does similar hauls, but without the unhauls, if you want similar content! (I’m going to add her link in my info box because I probably subconsciously got this idea from her). I think these videos are so fun because we get to see how our opinions change over time, after the initial impact of finishing. I’ve also had to return or exchange a lot of my pre-ordered hardcovers when they inevitably arrive damaged in the mail. This is definitely pushing me to get books from the library or wait for the paperback so maybe it’s a good thing in the end! Thanks for watching! 💜👻🎃

@@giantcupofcoffee that reminds me - I preordered three books this year and all of them were duds for me. I DNFed two of them! I will not be preordering in 2024 😅 the funny thing is, I don’t ordinarily pre-order books or even actually buy them. I am a huge library borrower, so of course they didn’t work out for me. 🤣🤣

Omg i need to get to This is How We End Things soon! …After I finish my current library books 🤪🤪 I don’t talking about my living situation much but post-lockdown I’m staying with an older relative and helping them out while I save up for a down payment. So all my books are just stacked right now. It’s probably making sense now that the stuff in my backgrounds isn’t actually my stuff! 💜👻

@@giantcupofcoffee That totally makes sense and Ive been there too with the book stacks! Itll be so worth it though when you do get to put in your down payment and in the meantime you can really plan exactly how you want your bookshelves to look and be organized! 💯💯🙌🙌

I'll be interested to hear what you think about Starling House! It sucks SO bad when stickers damage the book. B&N really needs to work on that! I love how the stickers at half price books easily peel off
