PURGE MY SHELVES WITH ME

[Music] okay hello hi team uh strange angle to usual if you have been here before and seen the previous version that i did of this you will know what we're about to do but we're gonna go through and purge my shelves again um i know i only did this like a couple months ago two or three months ago and it seems ridiculous that i have to do it again but apparently i wasn't vicious enough which is ridiculous because i got rid of 60 books in that purge but after saying that i have way more books coming in than i do going out so we need to go through and do it again and i think i need to be a little bit more vicious this time not only that but we're actually going to do something different as well so if any of you watch um becca's channel from becca in the books you will know that she has a an unhaul project going on in the background in which she has a bunch of books in her tbr car that she wants to read still she is still interested in but she doesn't think she'll ever reread them again when she's finished or she's not sure fully if she will like them or not so the chances are she's probably going to unhaul them as soon as she's read them so we're going to do something very very similar so credit to becca because this is not an original idea credit to becca for this one i'm not sure if it's her original idea it's come from someone else previously but i'm gonna give credit to becca because this is where i've seen it um and we are gonna do two piles so one's gonna just be pure unhaul and the other one is gonna be on a whole project and then once i've been able to tidy this room up because i can't tell you how bad this room is right now it's horrendous behind the camera it's awful so once we have um [Music] once i've tidied this room up and got it looking some sort of clean i will then bring my tbr cart back up from downstairs and we will be putting the unhaul books back in there so we won't do that today but that will then become part of my own whole project i have put a card on my book opely board um under chancellor community chess can't remember which one now uh for unhaul projects so when that comes up i have to pick a book out of my tbr card so a it means that my tbr car is getting actual reasonable use because at the moment it isn't it's almost empty it's literally just got my tbr on the top of it and what i want to read for next month's tbr um and then b it will take a bunch of books off of here that i know i wanna still i'm interested in but i just keep avoiding picking up so i should be picking them up really so without further ado let's get into it i'm just gonna leave you there for now and i will drag books off and show you what i have for starters i do have a stack already so this stack is a bunch of books that i've either dnf'd or i've read and i'm not going to reread um so to start off with we have when stars are scattered which is a middle grade graphic novel that i have read i gave this four stars it was really good but i'm never gonna reread it so i am gonna unhaul it we've got teach me by olivia dade i have read this one as well i gave it four stars i did enjoy it but i'm never gonna reread it so i might as well unhaul it we then have dragons in a bag and the dragon thief which i gave both of them three stars i think but i have read them so i'm never gonna reread them i'm unhauling them i've got to make monsters out of girls by amanda lovelace i have read this one i think i gave this one three stars it wasn't one of my favorite poetry collections from her but i have read it now i'm never gonna reread it so i am gonna get rid of it killjoy by holly jackson i have read this one i'm not gonna reread it so i am unhauling it i think i gave this one four stars i do really enjoy this story line in general then i've got the witches boy by kelly barnhill which i dnf'd unfortunately i'm really gutted about it because i was really looking forward to it after enjoying the girl who drank the moon but i did dnf this one so i will be unhauling it then i'm gonna be on hauling chasing daisy by page two and i did dnf this one as well absolutely devastated about the dnf on this one because i really really wanted to love this one i had such high hopes absolutely gutted so i will be on haul in this one hal's moving castle another one i'm absolutely devastated that i've dnf'd i really wanted to love this one so um i'm absolutely devastated to be on haul in this one it's so sad um so yeah it's going as far as you'll take me i did dnf the um publisher did send me this one but i dnf'd it unfortunately the anxiety rep in here was that good that it gave me anxiety and i just wasn't enjoying the story line in general so i've dnf'd this one it's going and then speak which is another graphic novel that i have read i think i gave this one four stars but i'm not going to reread it so i am unhauling it also so that's my first lot of unhauls let's go to the shelves i'm going to be really brutal here i think so we'll see what happens but also i need to remember that i need to take books off for my own whole project as well and put them in a separate pile so i think what i might do is take those off put them in a separate pile not mention them just mention the unhauled books for now and then we'll sit down and go through my unhaul project bit if you want so the books that i'll be keeping but will be going on my own whole tbr if that makes sense on my own haul tbi card i forgot a word there um so we're gonna get rid of this okay so from that first shelf i have the girl in red by christina henry i have read this one i think i gave it four stars but i'm never going to reread it so i might as well unhaul it um i have night of cake and puppets by laina taylor i have on hauled the entire stranger dream no it's not strange to dream um daughter of smoke and bone jewel trilogy because i dnf'd on the second book um i did read this one and i really enjoyed it it's so cute but i'm never gonna reread it so as pretty as it is it was really pretty i'd love to keep it but i need the space i've gotta be brutal here so i'm gonna unhaul it and then we've got master of one this is the fairy loot edition i'm really sad about getting rid of this but i haven't heard anything good about this and i'm really gutted about it because it sounds incredible um so i'm really really sad about getting rid of it but i haven't heard anything good so it's gonna go unfortunately and i've managed to make i don't know if you can see that but i've managed to make some decent progress there as well because i've taken one two three four five six seven bucks off there as well for the unhaul project so yay um i do have books up here as well i don't know if you can see that up there so let me just have a quick watch and see if there's anything up there that i want to take off this on a whole project's going to be huge i think trying to make room on my shelves um okay the rest can stay uh so we're on here now this ironically enough is a shelf that i really really love and i'm excited about everything on it i've either read most of them or um their ongoing series so there's that i think what i might take off i don't think i'm going to reread these but they're just so pretty romanov and forks by nadine brands i've read them both i gave them both four stars but i don't think i'm going to reread them so i'm not sure i could we'll see what happens so then we'll go over here and do this top shelf and we're going to go across on the basis that it's going to be pain in the ass keep moving this frigging tripod otherwise up and down um on here okay so the only one i'm unhauling from all of that is going to be more than this i think by patrick ness um or do i maybe it could maybe it can go on the whole project this is what happens when you bring something else into the mix and start around with the unhole um okay we'll do two shelves at a time because you can see both shelves here so on this shelf i'm not getting rid of a damn thing that's all stained same on this shelf as well they're all staying so that was that was great wasn't it great productivity so now we're over here again nothing's changing here um similarly on this shelf this has now become my brandy sandy shelf i don't know if you can see but this is all brandon sanderson to here and then we have all j actually i tell a lie i think i talked about this series in the last unhaul but i'm definitely getting rid of these for now because um i've read the first one and honestly i have zero interest in carrying on with the series i it's probably the last thing i will ever pick up on my show so i'm just gonna get rid of it we're unhauling the whole lot of the neverland never night trilogy but i will be keeping the um books that he's done with that jay christophe stone with amy kaufman because i really enjoy those and so we're going to unhaul all of those because i'm not interested okay on this side we have my josie jeffrey shelf law because i don't think that this is going to be up my street i'm not huge in mythology and i think if i if there's any mythology that i enjoy it's going to be norse mythology because i really really love like marvel and things like that so i think that's the mythology that i will like i don't think i like this one you know we're going to put it on the unhaul project this is going well um okay okay we're down here you can barely see me but that's okay because you can hear me so i am making a complete mess here and i can't move thank you um i do have a little stack down here but this is for a video they're all oh they're all staying so on here um you know what this one whole project is basically doing to me is um making me feel like i'm getting rid of books off my shelves which i am but they're just going in a different shelf location i'm really hoping that that card comes up a couple times on the board because it will force me to go through these books essentially um so now this i want as an unpop on the whole project you know i really love this cover i'm going to keep it just for now because i really want to get a picture of this with poison this poison heart i think it's called which is going to be kailyn's next book which comes out soon because the covers are going to be gorgeous next feature though so i'm going to keep it on that basis um but yes i probably will unhaul it at some point right these this series because these two series actually i just don't think i'm gonna get to them and i've heard really mixed things about both so um we're gonna get rid of one dark throne and three dark crowns because i've had them for so long now and i've just not picked them up i don't even have the rest of the series and then let's get the show of me and then similarly with the red crown series because i just i'm not bothered i just don't care oh we're gonna unhaul this because i've heard nothing but terrible things um especially from becca and ashley so they hated it and uh yeah i'm just i can't bother wasting my time on bad books honestly we're gonna get rid of six foot six it's just a really small quick reads book that i picked up for like a quid off of amazon and i just don't want it i'm not interested yeah the little paris book shop by nina george i'm gonna get rid of i've had this for a while now and i've just not picked it up and i don't really have any inclination to do so and half a world away by mike gale i have had this it came in a subscription service but i'm not bothered about picking it up it's not what i would reach for myself so i'm gonna get rid of both of those i've got rules for being a girl um which i got an arc of last year but i obviously just didn't read it um which i feel bad about but i don't think i'm that bothered about anymore to be honest so i'm gonna unhaul this one spin spin i have a couple stacks on the floor again but they're new books so um i'm gonna unhaul an american marriage i've had this for so long and i just have not bothered to pick it up um i was interested in it and i was gonna do it for a video at the time when i got it but i just don't think i'm gonna pick it up anymore so we're gonna unhaul that we're gonna unhaul all the bright places um because uh this book has been uh spoiled for me essentially i know exactly what happens now i haven't seen the movie yet but i know what happens and i really wanted to pick this up before the movie came out but i just didn't get time to and then somebody spoiled from it on for spoiled me for it on twitter and now um i mean i don't need to read it so and then i've got girl missing by sophie mckenzie i must have got this ages ago i don't really remember when i got this but i'm not i don't know what it's about but i'm not even bothered now so that can go we're gonna get fans of the impossible life i got this for a video last year or the year before i can't remember and i haven't done the video um and i think i may have been interested in this like if i'd have got this like five or six years ago i might have been interested but i'm just not any longer and then killing it um i got at the same time as i got an american marriage i think and now i'm just not bothered it does sound kind of good but to be fair but yeah i'm not bothered okay so i've dragged a couple more off the camera went off because uh it got bored apparently um so i'm gonna get rid of fast and hard because i've just read this one i gave it four stars really enjoyed it um but i'm gonna get rid of it because i'm probably never gonna reread it i'm gonna get rid of mr dickens and his carol because i got this a while ago and i just don't really have any intention of reading it i don't think it sounds really good but i'm a little bit concerned about the fact that he ends up with a fascination with is with a woman and her son and i the stalker trope does me no favors i don't like it it's a it's a trigger for me so no you should see me in a crown i've read this one i gave it four stars really enjoyed it but i'll never reread it and then i've got when dimple met rishi and there's something about sweetie both by cindy sandy and menon and i love this series it's so freaking cute but i'm never gonna reread them i don't think i actually i could read read when there's something about sweetie because i really enjoyed that one the fat reppin it was fantastic but um i don't think i'm gonna reread them so we're gonna get rid of them the covers are just so oh damn it they could end up back on my shelves um okay so we've done that one they can go on there now as well because they're new okay so we're down here now this is my a mess that's what it is this is my um cassie claire shelf and i've actually been wondering whether or not to unhaul some of these because i've read them most of them anyway um just don't know what to do because i'm never gonna reread certainly not the infernal devices because i enjoyed them but they're not my favorite uh did i get this sign no okay we're gonna unhaul the infernal devices this is gonna be a blast for me and everyone's gonna be raging but whatever um i need the space so we're gonna unhaul not that it's made much of a difference we're gonna unhaul that um that's my favorite one though okay we're gonna do one whole chain of gold because i didn't like this one um at all i gave this three stars i think which is my lowest rated shadowhunters book and i'm devastated about it and this was my special edition one and it's got my name and it's signed so i don't think we're gonna get rid of that but we might get rid of these on the bases i've read them and i wasn't a huge fan of the art style um somewhere else we have sugar under codex yeah i got lady midnight signed but not lord of shadows am i likely to reread them i don't know i haven't read any of those short ones um okay well that's condensed that down a little bit anyway because i haven't read any of these ones yet so let's condense that down um these are my movie tie-in additions of to all the boys i've lived before which are staying i haven't read that i haven't read that i want to these are some pins that need to be pinned okay we're going to get rid of this set of my to all the boys i love before soon as i have the movie tie-in ones and i actually prefer them to these and these are still beautiful but i really love the movie titans because lana condor's on the cover and i i'm obsessed with her so um i don't think i'm ever gonna reread thug or on the come up so i'm gonna unhaul both of those but i have read them both and i think i gave them both five stars so we're unhauling those this is my lindsay kelk shelf so they're all staying yeah that lock can all stay let's have a butcher's down here real quick because this is like classics and poetry and some of this can go on my um what was i calling it unhaul cart i think i did this last time but everything can stay on that shelf now because um it's all classics and stuff and i think i will still want to read them at some point i just don't know when but i don't want to put them on my own haul project either so they can stay okay so this is my thriller shelf um this is new so that's staying i don't think i'm ever gonna reread wrangle stone but i kind of wanted to keep it to remind me to keep an eye out for the for the next one i assume there's going to be the next i think this is going to be a series because i enjoyed this i gave this four stars it's queer dystopia so i really enjoyed it i think i might keep it um that can go on there though so to hear okay we're gonna unhaul those two because i've read them and i'm not gonna reread them okay last lot for this side um because we're gonna jump over to my middle grade and graphic novels as well um so i've got all boys aunt blue which i've read and i gave four stars really enjoyed but i'm never going to reread it so i'm going to unhaul it we've got long way down which i also read gave 4 stars really enjoyed but i'm never going to reread it so we're unhauling we've got a family recipe by veronica henry i've read one of veronica henry's before and i've still got it it's called how to find love in a bookshop but i really love that book and i do want to reread it but i've had this for ages now and i'm just not fussed about picking it up and then i've got bringing down the duke and also rogue of one's own which is book two one and two in the series this series um i did start reading this but i got to page uh what page should i get to i got to page 56 i didn't get very far chapter eight but i just don't know if historical romance is my she says this but i've just got outlander i'm just not 100 if this type of historical romance is my jam i don't know we're gonna have to see but i am gonna unhaul these two just because i wasn't that fussed about these characters i put it down ages ago and haven't picked it back up so we're gonna unhaul these two on that basis um so let's go over and in fact i'm just gonna go over have a look and see what i'm interested in getting rid of and then come back and tell you okay i have a stack of uh middle grade that i'm gonna get rid of also a graphic novel so i'm getting rid of monster which is a graphic novel that i have read a while back was it for a readathon or something i can't even remember i enjoy i think i gave this three three or four stars it was good i like to drop the illustrations um it was good but i'm never gonna reread it so we're gonna get rid of that we're gonna get rid of tinsel uh i read this over christmas and really really enjoyed it it's so good i gave it four stars but i'm probably never gonna reread it so i am gonna get rid of this one i'd rather uh someone else get the chance to read it similarly with the wolf for a spell i read this recently really really enjoyed it again gave it four stars but i'm probably never going to reread it but it's fantastic do highly recommend and then i'm also going to get rid of alice's adventures in wonderland because i just don't think i'm going to like this at all and i've had it forever so let me get rid of that one as well so overall i did a quick count just before i came back and i've managed to get rid of another 60 bucks and that doesn't count for all the books that are now in my unhaul project pile so um yeah another 60 books i think i might actually do a separate video for the unhaul project um because i can then maybe do a video in future where i look back at that and see what happened with it so i think i'm actually going to do a separate video for that but i will try and film that now i think as well so that i've got it done and dusted but i hope you have enjoyed this video please let me know in the comments down below um i don't know if you've read any of these and what your thoughts are on them um just bear in mind that chances are by the time you guys see this video i will have gotten rid of these books i will either take them to the charity shop uh sell some of them on instagram or we'll sell them to zip it which is a company that will essentially just give you you know like 10p anything between 10 and like 2 quid or three quid for a book um and they come and pick them up from you and you just get rid of them that way so um either way these books will be going to new homes and yeah just bear that in mind chances i won't own any of these books anymore by the time you see this video so if you're commenting saying can i have this book can i have this book chances are i haven't got them anymore so my apologies for that but um yeah i hope you have enjoyed this video um i've enjoyed doing the purge i now need to go through and like rearrange my shelves again which will be fun i kind of actually need to make more space for my um graphic novels because i've got really many many graphic novels now that i need more space for so i'm thinking i might actually try and use this bottom lot for my graphic novels as well as my classics keep my classics where they are but put my graphic novels on these two shelves um so it means i need to like move everything around again um we'll see what happens but i hope you have enjoyed and i shall see you in the next one bye for now
