"Who names their kid Gansey" when Gansey is his LAST NAME 😭

[norangutan]

the funniest thing about "who names their kid gansey??" as a criticism is that gansey is literally the guy's LAST name lsdkfj i wheezed SO HARD at this, but idk if his first name is any better since that's just dick/richard lol
i love how personal your reactions were to these😭🤧 kingggg

You had me at “dive into a cesspool of negativity.” Let’s

Loved this video so much, have you considered reading 5 star reviews of the books you hated? That would be fun to watch.

[ParanoidPopsticle]

A one star review is what convinced me to read The Fox Hole Court series. Everything they described that made them hate it just made me want to read it more. And I’m glad I did because I’m absolutely obsessed with it now❤️

seeing two of my favorites books in this video (song of achilles and on earth youre briefly gorgeous) really cements i need to read the others now, nothing makes me trust a booktuber's taste than having those as favorites ngl

edit: AND the starless sea??? my favorite book of all time?? ellias i trust your book recommendations with my life

[Everythingwillsurelybealright]

I honestly wish we could downvote reviews but we all know that Goodreads will never update the website.

[beforeisIeep]

I knew you were top tier when I saw you loved The Foxhole Court. It's such a favourite for me as well, I even have a tattoo of it lol

[ZS-drbi]

Jokes on them because sometimes bad reviews make me curious enough to actually go and read the books 😂

[nathansnook]

the clapback of "and whose fault was that" sent meee i swear goodreads is a wild place.

[filmscançons]

First of all, THANK YOU for NOT USING the annoying sound when the distorted TV effect pops up. My ears hate it to no end. Second of all, loved the vid!!! 😂

btw, new fear unlocked: posting a 1 star review on gr and then getting roasted by ellias.

my criticism of The song of Achilles is that Patroclus deserved a better partner %)

[TheBookHermie]

I love that we have the same favourite book of all time! 🐝🗝⚔

[Bookish.Thought]

This really hurt my soul, but I’ll keep watching these videos cause everyone’s opinion matters for growth 😤 (one starring parts of my soul really did something to me on this day😭)

[annabananabones]

Am I the only one who likes the foxhole court covers?
