trace all my books [2018]

I finally made another vlog. I didn't talk about very many books considering it was for a whole year. I just haven't been into stuff this past year I guess. I took more pictures of books than I'd remembered (also, sorry about the pictures in the video. I'm not smart enough to figure out iMovie enough to get them to look right), but it's okay. I like the focus on my true passion, Pride & Prejudice fanfiction. (At least...in 2018 that was my passion.)

Here's the video! (7 min long)


Books (and other works) featured in this video:

Prince in Disguise by Stephanie Kate Strohm -- the main girl has to go to Scotland for her older sister's reality show wedding to a duke. Luckily she has a friend in a guy her age (who for sure wouldn't be a prince in disguise.......).

Love, Life, and the List by Kasie West -- I don't remember this book any better than I did when I talked about it in the video. There's a girl, she has a list, I feel the feelings.

Party of One by Joy Beth Smith -- being single in the Church. Not doctrinal.

Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik -- She's a moneylender that has a knack for turning silver to gold. The fae king decides to marry her because of this. (Rumpelstiltskin adaptation, I believe.)

Fire and Heist by Sarah Beth Durst -- Oceans 11 with were-dragons. (Not the actual plot of Oceans 11, just the feel. I assume. I don't think I've seen it.)

The Wren Hunt by Mary Watson -- The judge boys have cruelly chased augur Wren her whole life. She's the only one that can infiltrate the judge stronghold to bring power back to the augurs. She has to deal with the judge boys, conflicting loyalties, damaged power sources, and her weird urge to eat banana peels.

Pyeongchang & Prejudice by AMarguerite -- Lizzy and Jamie Bennet are sibling ice dancers that have a goal to medal at the Olympics. Darcy (Charlie Bingley's skating coach) doesn't think they can do it. File available upon request!

An Ever-Fixed Mark by AMarguerite -- It's Regency England. People have the name of their soulmate written on their wrist. Elizabeth Bennet has Fitzwilliam on her wrist. She visits Hunsford and meets Colonel Fitzwilliam. They immediately hit it off and decide to get married. What does Darcy think about all that? Here's the link but I'm not sure it'll work, so for this one...file also available upon request.

I also mentioned The Land of Heart's Desire by MrsVonTrapp -- Incomplete. Anne of Green Gables what-if. What if there had been a boy at Anne's orphanage, so the Cuthberts adopted him instead? Anne and Gilbert may somehow still find each other, but what has changed? Link, but be prepared for the same agony I feel because it hasn't been updated since August.

And for Miraculous Ladybug stuff...I have read so much I don't even remember what the good ones are. I'd be willing to dig if someone wants links, though. I'm also your gal if you want RTD-era Doctor Who fanfiction or Harry Potter fanfiction. Since I'm laying it all out there now.
