Hello bookie friends!!!
It's been a while now that I have been wanting to create my own vlog, and here it is!
It's kind of long, SO sorry!!! I forgot to keep an eye on the time! and the funny part is - I forgot to mention a few things too, lol! I think things would have moved along a lot faster if a) I could read my notes, lol! b) could remember what I want to say without my notes! ha!
I was really nervous while doing it, you can actually see me trying to contain myself from giggling and making fun of myself :) I promise to do better on the next one!
This first vlog was suppose to be a virtual type of newsletter, but like I said, it got too long, so I edited some stuff out and just concentrated on the books that I had received....
So, here it is! You're getting a dose of some of the bumbling madness that goes on around here!
Please feel free to leave me some tips/feedback!!! but do remember be nice to me, please ;)
(ETA: I am unsure as to who/whom to give credit to for my newsletter-vlog type post!
There are SO many bloggers that have inspired me to expand my horizons - too many to list every time! So I have decided that I will add in a few shout outs to those very deserving people :)

Haha, congrats on your first vlog!! :) (I love your t-shirt, by the way)
ReplyDeleteThe Secret Garden is one of my all time favourite classics too! And I love these new covers from Penguin, they're so lush <3 I've been thinking about buying some of them and I totally will as soon as I have some money to spare.
I'm about to read Obsidian and I'm really curious about The Selection as well.
Enjoy all your books Margie (:

I am really looking forward to Enchanted, Bitterblue, The Selection and Elemental. Going to read Obsidian soon. Love your haul.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by.
I hope you enjoy The Storyteller! I've heard such amazing things about it... it sounds beyond wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI forgot that The Selection isn't actually out till now.. haha.. seeing ARCs and people talking about it for the last few months made me forget it wasn't released yet!
ReplyDeleteSweet Evil looks really good! Definitely want to check out that one :)
Thanks for stopping by!

Oh My Word! You are so darling 'in person'!! I feel like I am actually meeting you face to face. Love it! :)
ReplyDeleteI didn't get to watch all your video (we have a much slower internet out here in the country and it locks up after a couple of minutes) but I will try again later this week. Thank you for listing out the books and stuff you talk about.
Hugs,
Dani
Margie!!! You're too cute for words! :) Have fun with all the things you'd planned on doing this week!
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of awesome books! Elemental and Obsidian are great! Enjoy
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!

AHHHH! I love your vlog Margie.
ReplyDeleteYou're extremely cool in real life. *chuckles* The books you showed looked pretty interesting. Might add some to my to-reads list later on.

I'm late joining the comment party but I wanted to say that I think you did a really great job for one of your first vlogs. You seem super at ease!
ReplyDeleteThe early released books are something I notice all the time! I'm surprised they aren't more strict about stuff like that. Anyway, I hope you enjoy Enchanted more than I did. I don't normally read fantasy books but even so... this was just not what I expected.
Hope you have a great weekend!
