Hi, YouTube, its Kathy and this is my Weekly Entertainment Wrap Up for August 26th-September 1st.
This week I read 2 books, I watched 1 show, I listened to 2 podcasts, and I listened to 1 book.
Ever since I bought my PodCon ticket, I've been like, "oh yeah, remember that
time I have not been listening to podcasts because audio books from the library are a thing?"
So I'm about a year behind in everything I listen to but that's okay. I've got time.
As you saw in the thumbnail, I've started the Enchanted Forest Chronicles, and it's a good time,
let me tell you. This week I managed to read two of those books, the first one
being Dealing with Dragons by Patricia C. Wrede. This book starts out with a princess,
and I pronounce her name Cimorene... but I'll put it on the screen right here and you can decide if that's
a Ssss or a Cu... In my head it's Simorene.
Could be Kymorene, I guess. In any case, we start out with her and she doesn't really like learning all the things
that princesses are supposed to learn. Sure, they're fine but they're just not the things she's interested in, so she
starts getting her mentors to teach her things like fencing and magic, and basically
things princesses are not supposed to do. When her family decides it's time to just marry her off and make
her somebody else's problem, she runs away to live with dragons, which is another thing that
people are just not supposed to do, but she falls in love with this profession.
She really loves being the princess to a dragon. From there, we meet a whole cast of interesting characters.
There's a little bit of a mystery that evolves so we have to figure out how to fight the baddie, basically,
and I cannot say enough good things about this series so far. I'm currently halfway through the third book.
We'll talk about the second book in just a second, because obviously it's the other one that I read this
week, but it's so whimsical and logical and just proves that people can be whatever they want
and that there are different types of magic and I just - I just really love it.
The second book, Searching for Dragons, is a continuation of the series, obviously,
so there are things about it that I can't really discuss because it would
spoiler things in the first book, but in Searching for Dragons, we find even
more characters and characters we've already met get expanded upon. I also recently found out that this series
is actually done as an audiobook with a full cast narration, which sounds wonderful. I actually have the
fourth one downloaded to my phone already so I just need to finish reading the third one and
then I can listen to the fourth one. However, this is the week of BookNet Fest, so who knows if that will actually
happen. Basically, if you like magic, or you like dragons, or you like princesses, or you like witches, or
you like wizards, or you like magicians, or you like talking cats, this is a series that you should pick up.
The friend who lend it to me loves it and is very sad that she's never really heard
of anyone else that has actually read them before. I actually witnessed her, the other day, find somebody else
who had read them and she immediately gave them a hug. It was pretty dang cute.
That was that a Nerdfighter meetup where I asked people for book recommendations, so I'll
actually link that up of as well. Onto the show I [watched] this week, and if you've
been watching for a while you probably know that yes it's the ninth season of Survivor.
This one is in Vanuatu and we watched I think 13 [episodes], over two
different days, fortunately. That's a lot for one day, although I could do it, and
the most interesting thing is that the first man that I thought was going to be
voted off is the only man remaining, and he's been the only dude left for the last three or four tribal councils.
That's not to say I particularly like him and want him to win over anybody else, but I just found it interesting
that I thought he was gonna go home first and he is still there. On to the podcasts I listened to this week.
I listened to the first episode of S.S. Librarianship, because I downloaded this -
I want to say a year and a half ago - on to my podcast thing on my phone and then
just never got around to it because, again, audiobooks. But as I was listening to it and really enjoying this
introduction to what is probably an amazing podcast that I know went on hiatus, because I've actually met the
ladies who run the podcast. I went to download the next episode and realize that the podcast app I've been using
doesn't work anymore and won't download any new episodes, so I had to move all of
my podcast listening into a completely different podcast app for Android, and S. S. Librarianship
is not on there, so I'm going to have to poke around the internet and see if I can just find the
episode somewhere. Worst comes to worst, I think I follow them on Twitter, and I can
probably just tweet at them and be like, "hey, so I'm finally listening and where
can I find it now?" This is a podcast led by a couple of people who at the time of the first episode are in library
school, but by the time I met them they are librarians, and they're just talking
about books and it's delightful. Obviously, it's something I would listen to. I also listen to a
couple of episodes of Dear Hank and John, which is of course a wonderful format, and I adore it.
If you aren't familiar with it, it's run by the Green brothers, who are the Vlogbrothers here on YouTube.
and the format is a short poem at the beginning, how you doing, answering some
questions, and giving dubious advice and then giving us all the latest news from AFC Wimbledon and Mars.
I'm actually so far behind on this one that they were actually talking about the first PodCon, coming up,
in the episode I listened to. So, yeah, should get on that. There's, like, an entire year of Nerdfighter in-jokes
that I just don't know about yet. And as for the book I listened to this week,
that was Top Ten by Katie Cotugno. This one is done in a top 10 format, which I
actually found really interesting. This one centres around Gabby and Ryan, two high school students who
are just graduating high school, and one of them goes, "what are your top 10 moments of high school?"
This is actually a common game between them, you find out, because Ryan really loves top ten lists. So when
we start we're in moment number 10 and it goes all the way down to moment number 1.
You find out pretty quickly that they are best friends but Ryan has always wondered if they could be
something more than that, and the whole book is very much a will they/won't they? It obviously jumps
around in the timeline of their high school years and I really enjoyed the format, and I thought it was cute and it
was a really good read. It had the potential to just be something light and fluffy to listen to, but also I really
cared when bad things happen to these characters. I would be sitting on the bus
on my way to or from work and I'd be going "I hope Gabby's gonna be okay."
My next weekly wrap up will be from a location different than my couch because
I will be in Orlando when I need to film that, so I don't even know when or where
I'm going to film it, but it'll happen. Also, I'll probably have a lot less to
talk about because I'll have been talking about books as opposed to reading books for most of the week.
Last week I actually put up 4 videos and one of them was a 1K Q&A and Giveaway
Announcement, so if you happened to miss that one, I'll link it up here and down below.
Basically I'm on my way to 1k. I'm just about there, and I want your questions ahead of time so when I hit 1k,
I can actually make a Q&A video, which seems to be the thing you do on BookTube when you hit 1K subscribers.
As an incentive, I'm also running a giveaway. If you give me a question, you are entered into the giveaway.
Pretty easy.
That's it for this week. If you've read, watched, or listened to any of these, let
me know about it down in the comments below. On the way down in the comments, if you hit that Subscribe
button, that would be very nice of you. You can like and share this as you see fit and I will see you very soon.
Bye!
