BOOKSHELF TOUR / DECLUTTER

One of my favorites by Mica McDowell, one of my favorite authors, Cold Moon Over Babylon. If you want a fun gothic read.

It's going to be my rant review of Come for Bigfoot.

One of my favorites of all time, Dark Places by Gillian Flynn. Keeping that of course.

Next is Deathless by Catherynne M. Valente, so beautifully written. This is Russian folklore, very strange, and I think I'm going to keep it.

Then we have Goth, and I've owned this one for so long, and I keep picking it up, and I'm going to admit, I have trouble getting into this. So, I think I'm going to pass this one along, even though just based on the cover and the title and the author, it seems like something I'd really enjoy.

Got to keep this one of my favorites, House of Leaves.

I really enjoyed Hunger by her.

In the Miso Soup. I like this one.

Intensity which was one of my favorite books of favorite horror novels of all time

This is going to be a lot of keeps because these are books that I've read and really liked and if I haven't donated them yet, I'm probably not going to cuz it means they're favorites. But, Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides.

I've heard wonderful things, but I've tried to pick this up a few times and can't get into it and that is My Brilliant Friend.

I reviewed this recently and highly recommend it. I'm going to donate this one even though I really loved it because if you've read this you'll understand why but it's not the type of book that you would really ever reread

This is one of the first year four book club picks and this isn't one of my favorites of all time, but for some reason it just holds a special place in my heart. Every chapter ends on like a cliffhanger.

Pet Sematary by Stephen King, love this old edition I found and I love, love, love this book so much more so than I was even anticipating I would.

One of my classic favorite non-fictions that is Quiet: The Power of Introverts. Obviously going to keep that.

The Sabrina the Teenage Witch graphic novel which is so much fun, much better than the show which I think has become trash.

My camera died and while it was recharging I spent a good 10 minutes really enjoying flipping through this. So, I think I'm going to keep it.

The Stranger by Albert Camus, one of my favorite classics.

Again similar to Our Kind of Cruelty I really liked this but I'm not a big re-reader of books

As I mentioned in I think it was my last video, I read recently The Death of Mrs. Westaway and really enjoyed that.

This is one of my favorite horror novels of all time, super disturbing. I never hear people talk about it and that is The Devil of Nanking.

I really enjoyed what was it called? The Goldfinch.

I've only ever read The Handmaid's Tale, but I loved it, so I always like to keep at least one book by her on my shelf that I need to read.

The Winter People is a really fun horror novel and it just holds a really special place in my heart. There's something really unique about it.

I really liked The Childfinder, but I also don't know that I ever see myself rereading it, so I think I'm going to donate this one.

But one of my favorite books of all time is The Enchanted

This I love so much. It was sent to me a long time ago and I posted some pictures on Instagram cuz it's just absolutely beautiful but it's the Illustrated Herbarium by Maya Toll and it's beautiful.

His books are always really fun if I'm ever in the mood for a super fast-paced thriller, so I'm going to keep this.

Another non-fiction book that I started to read and stopped for whatever reason, but that I really enjoyed was Three Women and this is about the sex lives of three different women that was chronicled, really interesting.

I did like Uprooted, but it wasn't one of my favorite books of all time.

I read this and really liked it, but there's also zero chance of me ever rereading it. But, I also just love her writing style
