Shoutout to @laurenreadshistory📚 for the video idea! Our TBR has officially become a source of shame. 😅📚 Because how have we STILL not read these?! 📖 Lauren Graham’s books ⚔️ The Sword of Kaigen 🕰️ 11/22/63 💔 A Man Called Ove 🗡️ Malice 🏛️ The Atlas Six And before you ask… yes, we own all of them. 😂 If you also have a TBR that has somehow evolved from a cute little reading list into an unwieldy collection of books you swear you’re going to read someday, this one’s for you. Tell us: what book has been sitting on your TBR for an embarrassingly long time?👀 #booktok #tbr #TBRPile #bookreconmendations #readersoftiktok

If you love fantasy with an animal-forward cast of characters, put Watership Down on your TBR. 🐇📚 I finally read this classic, and I completely understand why it has stayed beloved for so long. These aren’t just “animals in a story” — every rabbit has their own personality, motivations, fears, and relationships, and somehow I found myself rooting for all of them. There’s adventure, danger, friendship, survival, and a world that feels surprisingly immersive for a story about rabbits. And honestly? Immersion reading made this experience even better. It pulled me deeper into the world and made it so much easier to forget I was reading about rabbits and just experience this as the fantasy adventure it is. If you’re a Redwall fan, love animal protagonists, or just want to read a classic fantasy that feels completely different from the usual human-centered cast… this one might be for you. 🐇✨ Have you read Watership Down? #WatershipDown #redwall #animalfantasy #fantasybook #booktok

Two years later, we’re back with our Couple’s Book Swap and this time we’re LIVE REACTING to the first 100 pages. 📚👀 Shae is reading Golden Son, book two in the Red Rising series by Pierce Brown. Tyler is reading Part of Your World by Abby Jimenez. After swapping books, we’re finally sitting down to see what we actually think after the first 100 pages… and let’s just say these two books could NOT be more different. 😂 If you watched Part 1, you already know how our original book swap went. But how do you think THIS swap is going to go? And if you haven’t seen the first series yet, check out our pinned video for the conclusion! 👀 #booktok #BookSwap #redrising #goldenson #abbyjimenez
