Pucksandpaperbacks | I TESTED The Story Graph Book Recommendations AND FOUND MY BEST BOOK OF 2024?! @pucksandpaperbacks | Uploaded March 2024 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
[CC] Can We Trust the Story Graph’s Book Recommendations?
I tested The Story Graph's book recommendations features to see if they're *actually* good. In this reading vlog, I let The Story Graph pick my TBR and read four books from their Onboarding reading challenge and review them.
*Doing some research, it looks as if Mafalda's video *is* the original. But both came out around the same time. They're about two weeks apart lol

Lets talk about what I read in February 2022! I read four books in February including a memoir, poetry collection, a childrens picture book, and a romance! I was disappointed by The Wedding Date and go into more of my thoughts and gush about how Know My Name quickly became my favorite nonfiction book! You can see book reviews for Know My Name by Chanel Miller, Thats Betty!: The Story of Betty White by Gregory Bonsignore, Jennifer M. Potter, The Wedding Date by Jasmine Guillory, and Concrete Kids by Amyra Leon.
