Hello friends how is everyone doing
today we are going to unhaul some backs
so if you've been a regular view on my
channel you know I've ran out of space
I've ran out of space with my current
setup I am hopefully going to be moving
out of home um in a couple months well
not in a couple months probably sometime
with the next year if we're being honest
cuz moving takes a long time but um
maybe next 6 to 8 months is a realistic
time I don't know some point I'm going
to be moving and so there's no point
really changing the setup so we're just
trying to live in it for as long as
possible now I think I'm going to have
to get another TBR cart to go into the
next room and my plan is to do a really
big unhaul when we move out when I take
all these books out there's so many
books behind here that I don't even
remember here but to take all these
books out and do like a big audit of my
books and decide what I'm keeping in the
move but we need some space in the short
term we need some space just need a bit
of space that's so okay you're right
yeah so today what we're going to be
doing is my patrons have sent me some
different unhaul categories and what
we're going to have we're going have a
spinny wheel with the categories and
when we land on one then I'm going to do
a random number generator of between one
and five to determine how many books of
that category I have to UNH hold I think
it's going to be a really fun way to do
an unhaul challenge I'm aiming to unhaul
maybe like 20 25 books in this I'm
guessing about that so shall we just get
into it but before we unhaul books I
want to chop out something I'm never
going to unhaul and that is the sponsor
of J my serious light from serious
readers you guys know if you watch my
channel a lot I love my serious light I
use it every single day when reading if
you don't know it is a reading light and
it's just perfect it's the perfect
reading light you could ever imagine in
your entire life it feels so fresh on
the eyes I don't know how to describe it
like when I'm reading it just makes
reading so so easy it has daylight
wavelength technology that replicates
daylight Spectrum as closely as possible
which is something really unique not any
other light has this it's you know to
their lights and rather than being blue
light that kind of sets off signals in
the brain that we don't need or being
not an efficient light it's a really
really great light for reading
biologically or in the braid I don't
know it it gels well the braid and I
feel that when reading I absolutely love
my serious light I cannot recommend it
enough it makes me want to read I feel
like I read quicker when I'm using it I
read more I'm more incentivized to read
I have the high definition light which
has a dimmer so I can adjust the
strength of the light I also have the
wireless one so I plug in to charge it
and then I can move it about so
sometimes when I'm doing reading Sprints
at my desk with my patrons I'll move the
light over there to help me read I
predominantly read in bed so that's
where it set up but you know if you read
in many places around your house you can
move it around I have got a code for you
guys which is mwb 24 which CS you a 100s
off a high definition light these are an
investment but I think it's if you're
like a reader reader it's one of the
best investments you can make I also
think it would be great for like
crafting like knitting or crocheting or
jigsaws or something like that I think
it's a perfect light for that as well so
my code gets you £100 off a higher
definition light plus free UK delivery
so you can get delivered in the anywhere
else in the world they can fit it with
different plugs if you need a us or EU
plug but um the code is just for free UK
delivery so I'll leave a link down below
you guys should definitely check it out
I love my serus light so much it's
wonderful wonderful reading investment
and I cannot recommend you guys check it
out enough okay I guess it's time to
start the unhaul I'm really proud of
myself I've come from the days when I
like hated unhauling now I feel okay
about it I feel like I've gotten over
unhauling but there were days when I
like I couldn't even you know imagine
unhauling BS let's go to our spinny
wheel first and tap to spin for our
first category again we'll just keep
playing this until I've probably UNH
like
2025 sorry some of these some of these
categories make me laugh so much cuz
they're from oh wait we got B I thought
it was going to be
nice these are suggested by my my
patrons buy man and then let's generate
a number three okay three books by a man
and these can be books I've read or
books I haven't read now here's the
thing there's just so many the the books
that are out front are really not a
biggest probably culprits we need to
look behind what do I have the most
books by a man oh my oh my God guys this
what are we hiding here that's not by oh
this is by man okay it's probably time
to unhaul this okay let's ignore the
state of the shelves first book The
Murder Game game by Tom hindle one of
the worst books I read last year it
betrayed me as a murder mystery it's not
a murder game it tells you oh they're
they're playing a murder mystery game
and people get mad at same time they
never play the game they think they're
going to play the game and then they
don't it's an unexpected murder mystery
and it's just not good it's it lied to
me multiple times it lied to me I was so
sad about this one and here's the thing
Tom hindle is one of the authors
publishing like true classic homage to
the genre of murder mysteries you know
in the present day like he's got one out
at the moment called like murder on Lake
Garder or something like that and I want
to want to read them but I feel like I
have to swear him off so the murder game
is gone woo okay anything else back here
oh I've got another one I've got another
one we've got where there was fire by
John Manuel Aras this was a book club or
like read readal pick for when I did my
trip to Costa Rica with some of you guys
which was the best thing I've ever done
but this book was not very good we all
hated it we all hated this book it was
strange there was a lot of descriptions
of people weeing which I didn't
appreciate or things pissing them it was
so strange disgusting disgusting and it
was just poorly written we all hated it
none of us liked this book none of us
liked either of the book as we picked as
our Costa Rica book club picks which is
sad yeah this didn't work for any of us
and it's like half family Saga half like
political critique and I think the
political well it's not even that it's
like 7030 and the political critique is
the 30% but it's the more interesting
part of it in my opinion and I would
have liked more but I'm surprised they
haven't unhaul this yet cuz none of us
like this okay one more man book one
more man book anything else back here um
I guess I could unhaul that I don't
think I want unho fatal Crossing I don't
want to like double double kill see some
of these books back here are books I
really enjoyed I just don't have room
for them on my shelves I think let's
unhaul this cuz I didn't I think I gave
this two stars I do I want to unhaul
this yeah I can't see myself ever
talking about this book again cuz I've
forgotten most of what's happened my
heart is a chainsaw by stepen gra Jones
I've really enjoyed some other Stephen
gra Jones I love ban Indians but this
one just didn't work for me this was a
patron book club pick as well God the
the the book club picks are getting
killed over here and this one's about
Jade who's like a slasher obsessive and
then like slasher movie starts playing
out actually like in her town and I just
didn't like it I didn't like it I found
it very very boring I didn't like the
writing style like I said I've enjoyed
other stepen gr Jo what other ones have
I read from him I think I've read like a
short story from him that I enjoyed but
yeah I know some people have loved this
one but it just did not work for me
sadly okay wo first category done what
are we going to do
next what is our next
category this one's hard was a five star
prediction okay let let's see how many
we have to un hold I'm hoping it'll be
low two okay two books that were a five
star prediction
um holy [ __ ] what was a five star
prediction that I want to unhaul let's
have a look behind here in fantasy oh I
didn't know I had that back there oh
gosh huh interesting okay I'm going to
go for this one first this is a book I
know a lot of people love like really
really love and it is the very secret
society of a regular witches I read this
not long after I'd read Legends and
lattes and I really thought cozy fantasy
was about to be my thing I thought cozy
fantasy I'm going to be in love with Co
fancy isn't life going to be great and
uh yeah I didn't like this I didn't like
this as much as everyone else's I know
other people have enjoyed this it's
witches and you know witches are one of
my I'm pretty sure witches is one of my
thing in five star order that I love I
love witches I love cozy fantasy but
this one just did not work for me I
found the romance uninteresting I found
the
writing annoying for some reason I can't
I forgot a lot to do with this book I'm
okay with letting this one go and
passing on I I usually let my patrons
have first dibs on the books I'm on
holding before I take them to the
charity shop and I'm okay with this
going to like a better home that will
love it more this one I was really sad
by I was really sad by cuz I thought
cozy Fant was about to be my thing but
like I think I need to stay away from
cozy fantasy with a really strong
romantic plot like Legends lattes has a
kind of sub I feel like a Sub sub
romance plot and that's okay for me but
cozy fantasy that are really just like
cozy Roman fantasy don't work for me and
um I I I should have loved this found
family is another one the this has so
many of my buzzwords but alas we were
not successful okay four books un hold
already what can I in good faith say was
a five-star prediction that I just did
not enjoy cuz I don't want to
lie right I am going to unhaul the
Christmas Murder Game by Alexandre
Benedict because I thought I would love
this there's a lot of like me being KN
down by murder mysteries so far here I
thought I would love this I thought it'd
be a campy Christmasy murder mystery I'm
pretty sure I dnfed this I could not get
through it it was so bad the writing was
so bad the characters were so annoying
it was so dumb like it's bad yeah it's
bad yeah I don't you speak about all
these other things and it's kind of bad
did you say that to me like did I finish
it I don't think I did I just couldn't
get through it I remember like reading
this near Christmas time and I was like
I could be spending time with my family
or I could be reading book and God I am
not reading this book I'm not going to
read this book I really thought I was
going to love it and then this author
keeps publishing Christmas Em M
Mysteries and the idea of that like I
love the idea of christmy murder
mysteries every Christmas I love to read
christmy esque murder mysteries in the
hope that I will find a book I love and
I don't I don't and this book really
like set so a seed of distrust with cozy
mystery christmy mysteries for me
because this was so bad it was so like I
should love it there's a family tree
there's a puzzle within a puzzle like
there's like 12 days of anagrams like
there's anagrams that give you Clues and
it tells you like in what chapter what
the anagrams are like I should have
loved this but it was bad it was bad
okay next
category oh ah draw timeline that's
going to be tricky cuz I can't
necessarily remember what is your
timeline and what isn't let's see how
many r on H it's going to be a lot isn't
it oh no okay but what is Jo timeline
that I haven't liked bloody hir oh okay
now there's one right here Wayward
Wayward Wayward I hate this is like
triple timeline hated it hated it I
hated Wayward I'm still so angry that
this won two Awards in the gy chice
awards last year makes me so mad you
stupid [ __ ] dinosaur get the [ __ ] out
of here I hated it they they said they
were going to be witches they weren't
witches there's another theme Here fake
witches not enough witchiness which I
think was a had degree that someone
suggested I didn't put it down because I
was like oh there won't be enough books
for that turns out there is it's
following three different women who have
links to each other throughout time one
in 201 2019 one in 1942 and one in 1619
and they were just all such archetypal
level one additions of that kind of
character you've seen each of these kind
of characters before and in my opinion
they were just like basic versions of
what those types of characters are and
because it's triple timeline I spent 100
pages with each of them I barely got to
know them for a full link other so
that's number one I can't believe we got
to get out
more draw timelines this is really hard
what is dra timeline what is dra
timeline approximately 10 hours later
okay um I'm giving up I can only think
of one more that I want to unhaul right
now and uh I just can't think of any
more so we're going to P it said two
instead of five but I am going to unhold
The Christmas Guest by Peter sson this
is kind of like draw timeline and that
it's one timeline and then the other
rather than going back and forth between
two I think I've already unha holded a
lot of Jew timelines that I can think of
that I want to unhaul or like there's a
lot of books where I I feel like the je
timeline went took it from a 4 to a
three you know but I don't want to haul
them anyways The Christmas Guest by
Peter Swanson I'm going to unhaul me and
Tom listened to the audio book of this
on a long drive I think to Wales last
year absolutely diabolical it's so bad
it's beyond bad it's it was awful we
were actually laughing at how bad it was
I don't realize that it was I'm why are
you laughing at how bad the narrative
voice was how obvious the twists
were I can't even it was actually quite
fun it was quite a fun experience to
have together to listen to this awful
book and it was an easy one because it
like you know you're going to finish it
on the car ride you know some books
you'll start and you're not going to
finish them on the car ride and then you
forget about reading them whereas this
one like you knew you going to finish so
it was a nice one for the for the
circumstances but I hated this I hated
the twist I hat the writing style I hate
I hated everything about it so okay now
we're giving up on dra timeline cuz I
can't think of any more did I want to
unhaul right now hopefully an easier
category
now um oh no I'm spinning again cuz we
got was a f star prediction again oh
annoying main character or love interest
okay and how many are we unhauling of
this just one okay annoying main charact
oh I've got it I've got it I'm on
holding the housemade secret even though
I'm going to have to buy the next one
for the good read video this year I have
no interested holding on to these specs
yeah the house my secret I found her so
annoying she oh my God and and some of
the love interest in this so annoying I
mean the whole book is annoying I'm on
holding the housemade secret bye-bye see
you
[Music]
later and you're going home
[Music]
sweetie
do I hated it I hated it I hated it and
I'm going to have to read like probably
at least two more Freedom mcfadin by the
end of the year I just really deeply
despised this book I also can't remember
anything about it but I just found the
main character's decisions and annoying
and her voice annoying and I hate
everything about this book I find fre
mcf no no no disrespect freed mcf I'm
sure you're lovely but your books are
not for me girl your books are not
they'll never be for me and I'm going to
have to read two more of them this year
for the good reads Choice was including
the secret sequel to this but uh no
interest in keeping it okay eight books
un hoard we're doing well next category
I just remember one of them is like good
Rees Choice Awards and we've already
unhold like two good re Choice Awards
nominees
oh it's giving us the same one again oh
wait
no lied about having a cat in
it oh God funny I can already think of
one um three okay number one it's a loud
plane outside that's really
loud see you I'm going to un hold a
spoonful of met even though part me
wants to hold on to this because it'll
be in my worst books of the Year video
at the end of the year and so I probably
should hold on to it but it's going um a
spoonful of Murder By JM hle I can just
put pictures up I don't need to hold on
to these BS this one there's a cat on
the cover where is the cat the cat is
not in there this is an awful murder
mystery awful absolutely diabolical
murder mystery following these retired
teachers solving the murder of their old
school friend and these women were so
annoying the book had no cohesion they
barely spent any time with one another
oh my God I I hated it and I also this
video I got so annoyed about all the bus
lying that they had cats in them no they
didn't what else lie about having a cat
I feel like D at the moras suaki book
shop but I don't necessarily want to
unhaul that what else in that video lied
about having a cat in it cuz the cat who
caught a killer did have a cat in it and
the goodbye cat did and so is there any
days at marasi book shop and the SP full
of murder that don't have a cat in them
oh the kamagar food detectives I could
unho and I'm supposed to un whole days
at the moraki book shop in order to get
like the right number but I don't know
if I want to do that I'm I'm happy to un
days at the morisaki Bookshop but I have
no idea where that is I
mean where could that be no not there
not there where is this I just read it
where have I put it guys I have no idea
where this book is I have no idea what
this book is where did I put it I can't
see anymore okay no I I'll just say this
didn't lie but you know I'll unhaul the
cat who caught a killer as well even
though it will also be wor back see your
video cuz this does have a cat in it
it's very catty obviously it doesn't
quite fit the promp but like this cat is
not a cat this cat is not cat as a
talking cat and his cat voice his cat
monologue is so uncat likee it pisses me
off if you're going to write a cat it
has to embody a cat and this cat is just
not a cat it's just not a cat you may
not hold the space for me and that's
okay but that's a hill I'm going to
[ __ ] die on firstly like every wanted
this book is a bloody Tory so like you
know there's that when cats are so
socialist it's unreal and yeah it's a
fake cat it's not a real cat because the
cat voice in this is not is not catlike
at all at all not one bit okay that's
all we're do we're not doing enough of
was it only two that we had to do oh no
it was three well we're unhauling to
this number isn't quite working is it
okay next
one next
category here we go we got it it okay
good G Choice Award and how many are we
unhauling two right we've already unha
holded a few so I'm going to unhaul the
golden couple by gray Hendricks and
Sarah pekan I think this is from the
year before and it's just an incredibly
forgettable domestic Thriller between
like a husband and wife who are in
therapy and they're therapist and the go
I actually can't whoa if you asked me a
single thing about how this book turned
out like what the actual twists and plot
of this Bika I canot tell I can't tell
you I remember like the therapist is a
bit dodgy and the woman's doing some I
can I can't remember anything I can't I
don't remember I don't remember love I
don't remember at all I really don't
that off a long time ago I can't
remember anything about this book okay
that's that's a sign to Let It Go baby
that's a sign the Let It Go yeah I just
did not enjoy this I think it was like a
2.5 and then I was only trying to read
the top 10 that year did this and it
wasn't even in the top 10 it was a waste
of a read I didn't need to read it um
yeah we're going to unhaul that one and
then we need another one W we've already
unha holded quite a few of what I would
have unha holded for this prompt do I
want to unhaul
you I don't want to unhaul that oh I
know I know I know I know I know I'm
going to unhaul being Henry by Henry
Winkler sorry Henry I read this for the
when I was reading all the winners of
the good re Choice Awards at the start
of this year and I'm just so sorry Henry
I don't know who who you are you are
before my time that I respect you but
this was just like it was so boring it
was so boring I'm so sorry Henry but I'm
I'm unhauling you I have I had no
interest in this book I read it cuz I
had to it was fine you know but it was
written for someone who was a fan of him
and I am not and this book I mean I have
no interest in keeping on to it cuz it's
just the massive faces of a man who I
have no idea who he really is maybe
we're just going to do one more prompt I
haven't had maybe enough B but I'm
making some space
okay forgot
existed okay I feel like I can do some
for this cuz it's just the ones that are
back here three okay let's do these
three and then we're going to be done
okay what is back here that I forgot
existed some of these are ones I don't
necessarily think are
bad I just yeah forgot they existed okay
I'm going to unhaul the fair fight by uh
Anna Freeman
we've got you're invited by Amanda J
atisa this is a thriller that's set on
an island at a wedding and it's
something to do with friendships and
people not liking each other this was
one that I think quite a few people
enjoyed but I just found it again
incredibly forgettable this is one again
I could probably tell you a lot of what
happened in it and um I kind of forgot
it was here until I saw it just now when
I was looking for vex so I think this is
an easy one to click of I just found
this one yeah very very un unengaging
and then one more back we're going to
unhaul one more back we're going to do
one more cuz I don't think I can do any
more until we do like the big big clear
out because the all I'm doing is making
a mess oh yeah I forgot I still owned
that okay let's go for this I'm going to
unhaul White Smoke by Tiffany D Jackson
this one was the one that made me doubt
whether i' would ever enjoy Tiffany D
Jackson ever and then I ended up loving
the weight of blood which is the release
I read after this this is A Haunted
House it says get out meets the hill
Haunting of Hill House in this chilling
ya psychological R this pissed me the
[ __ ] off I for I can't believe I still
own this this is crazy this pissed me
off I I did not enjoy this one bit I
don't want to I I feel like what I can
remember of why I didn't enjoy it is
very much wrapped up in the spoiler in
the ending but I didn't enjoy like the
lead up I enjoy the buildup the kind of
like haunting this I've read some really
great I think I read horid by Kina Leno
not too before long before I read this
and that's a great Haunted House book I
love a good Haunted House book this just
didn't give me haunted house let's just
say that so I'm glad me and Dy Jackson
have since Found Love and adoration for
one another well she doesn't know me
I've just found love for her with the
weight of blood but I'm ready to let
this one go okay friends I think that's
all we can unhaul before we do like the
big moving out un Hall but we've made a
little bit of space I think I mean it's
a mess it's an absolute mess back there
but we've made a little bit of space um
I'm now going to go put my bookshelves
back together cuzz it's absolutely
diabolical out here but thank you for
watching me do a little bit of an unhaul
I feel a little bit refreshed little bit
of Summer cleaning and um yeah I just
wanted to like make a bit of space
before to try and make it possible to
live in these bookshelves until we do a
really big ruthless unhaul whenever I'm
moving out that'll be one of the videos
that come with moving out I also really
when we move out I do want to really
document it for you guys so I think I'll
do quite a lot of videos like in the
process moving out I don't know how
interest interested people will be in
that but anyways thank you guys so much
for watching and I'll see you very soon
in another video bye
