Katherine, I'm a new subscriber. I love your gothic, gloomy apartment and how you speak. I relate to your review of books and also your channel helped me relax my anxiety a lot in the last month. I had horrible period cramps and mood swings the day I found your channel and it was an absolute comfort to my wounded soul and body. I find your vulnerability and honesty really freeing. Thank you for existing and posting these vlog that make so many people feel less alone. I also realised I want a chihuahua in future. Rocky is absolutely adorable.❤
Over the years your videos have become one of my happy places when I want the world around me to slooooww down. I adore the dark and cosy ambiance. Sending a hug from England 🏴
I currently having a real bad time after a big relapse in my healing journey. But when I woke up to day and saw you have a new video it filled me with joy and now I can watch it and find some peace while waiting for my appointment. Thank you for this.
New subscriber here. Im so glad I came across your channel. I absolutely love your vibe and humor. Keep doing what you're doing! Also, you have inspired me to immediately start reading the next book I buy from a bookstore. I seem to always buy books and am excited to read them, but then they end up staying on my shelves for weeks...sometimes months.
I love ur yappinggg!! I hv a routine of watching ur videos every Sunday after I finish everything before dinner, to get over the Sunday blues and get ready for Monday!! you mean too much to me!
Cozy reading recommendations with anamorphic animals: Wind in the willows, and The Willows in Winter, The Tale of Hill Top Farm (The Cottage Tales of Beatrix Potter). Other cozy reads: Miss Buncle’s Book, The House at the End of Hope Street, Rose Cottage, anything by Sarah Addison Allen, The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches. Also, I just adore your videos, the vibes and scenery are just gorgeous!!
As a resident of central/upstate NY, it is the absolute definition of cozy 😩 I love it, my parents have something like 87 acres of woodland andddd land is so affordable up here 🫶 come be my neighbor!
It's raining here. Was in the mood of something dark and gloomy, so I'm playing Batman Arkham City, Resident Evil 7 and watching your videos 😅 You give me Gotham City Vibes. 🦇
I remember you looking at that Jane Austen mug a while ago in another video and saying you couldn’t get it right then. And now u did!!! Love seeing these little connections as someone who has watched all ur vids. Love u kat
in the most affectionate way, I love how snobby you are about books XD i feel the same way about certain things I read but you say what we're all thinking out loud
I tried so hard to read Can’t Spell Treason without Tea. I am going to try to get back into it, but I wasn’t rooting for the main couple. I feel like this book and Legends and Lattes are written completely differently, and don’t give me the same vibe. Yesss! It’s missing whimsy. Felt like same issues as today but in a magical backdrop.
I felt the whimsy with Moon Soul by Nathaniel Luscombe. It was my first cozy scifi. I agree with everything you said about Becky Chambers books. Moon Soul had beautiful world building on a purplish/pinkish moon, and had a bi-species native that reads memories in sand then experiences burnout, loss, and making friends. I really enjoyed it.
i'm in upstate new york, and girl you would THRIVE out here. don't go too rural tho bc then it can be ultra conservative and the vibes are not great. i'm near ithaca tho and i love it here. lived here my whole life :)
I also had a hard time getting into Emily Wildes Encyclopedia of Faires! I think it was because it was a bit dry and info-dumpy in the beginning but it does get better once more characters get introduced. It does have the cozy fantasy vibes that I think you're looking for and a simple enough story
I loved how Legends & Lattes made me feel relaxed and cozy! I haven’t found any other books that do that yet besides Bookshops & Bonedust, it’s nice to hear that you also love the coziness. I can’t deal with books that have like a lot of tension and if it makes me anxious then I just don’t enjoy it. I have tried Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea but it didn’t really make me feel cozy and I can’t find anything that’s like super similar to Legends & Lattes in the sense that a lot of time is spent in a cafe describing all the coffee and pastry smells.
All I needed today, I can relate so much with the day beeing a lot of little things you have to do, and your videos just give me the what I need to do them
Katherine this was so lovely i love it when you take us along on your streets and favorite spots... I saw glimpses of my favorite things... TL Huchu books ,pastries,english chocolate "Terrys"(i like the blue one milkchocolate with orange flavor),and you cant have to many mugs,no there is no such thing... 🦇🦇🦇🐿🪶🦉🕸🌱🌿🍁🍂🫖☕🥧🍵🥮🕰🎃🕯📓🖋
Hi Katherine, so grateful for the opportunity to meet you at the art market! Thank you for the recommendation again, I love the hobbit audio on RUclips!! it’s just so immersive. Your artistic and literary passion inspires me to cultivate that more often in my own life too.
New Katherine video!! I’m a pretty new subscriber to your channel but since I first came across one of your videos you’ve quickly become a favourite of mine here on youtube, so thank you for creating such beautiful videos, it really brightens my day (and im sure many other’s day) every time
🦊 I’m so excited Shady Hollow is beginning to circulate! I saw it by chance at my local library in January this year and now I’ve read the first 4 in the series and they’ve just released the 5th. Very fun, cute and easy to read, I hope it helps with your slump (I think it will ~ I’m only halfway through this vid haha) 🌱
omg yess angelina ballerina😍 (and i hate mice lol) the spellshop is my patreon buddy read so thank you for putting me in the mood for it hah i'm so glad you loved legends & lattes!
I agree with your take on Can't Spell Treason without Tea. It's lacking whimsy and....warmth.. I thought. It took me awhile to figure out what was missing after I finished it.
I love the shady hollow series and the new one in the series comes out in August sometime I think it’s like a 6 book series it’s amazing you’ll love it
If you haven’t flipped through the illustrated children’s books Brambly Hedge, you should!! All the cozy woodland animals going about their lives (with full illustrations of the layouts of their homes!!). It’s super cute and cozy, and they have a story for each season! 💚☺️
i don’t know if you’ve read The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy by Megan Bannen, but its vibes are a very impressive mix of adorable cozy enemies to lovers romance and slightly (very) morbid fantasy, so it seems up your alley. The newly released sequel has dragons also!
Omg I did not know that u like F1. 🎉 We share the same hobbies! Thanks for calming my mind when I feel overstimulated. Sending you lots of love from Italy ❤
Love your videos Kat ❤ I live near the real Keswick in the UK so seeing a store in NYC with that name I was like... what?! Hahaha. Take care, sending love to you and Rocky 🖤🤟
I never thought I'd want to read cozy fantasy either, but both Travis Baldree books were great palette cleansers for me. The Lattes made me want pastries real bad; the Bonedust made me want to browse a bookstore. Have I read any more cozy fantasy? I have not, but I am open to it...especially if there are autumn/winter vibes that does *not read like a Hallmark movie. ^J^ I part my hair in the middle most of the time; sometimes I go for just off-center to the left or right. Sometimes I lean my head over and come the front parts of my hair over like I'm going to give myself bangs, flip my head back up to see where my hair falls by itself. I'll use a comb to make a straighter part.
omg mentioning waking up way too early for an F1 race is so based, me too! Now it's F1 summer :( Oh! But a nice rec would be criers war very pleasant read.
Bestie, seriously, listen to the Nevermoor series (Jessica Townsend) audiobooks narrated by Gemma Whelan. Yes, it's a middle grade, but it's beloved by adults too. It's my all time favorite comfort read. I really think you'd like the books, the vibes! :)
Hi I’m new here. I love your videos! I apologize if you’ve already covered this in another video, but where did you get those mini book cover stickers? I check out your store, but I don’t see them there. Thanks for any help!
She prints them herself at home. You just have to find the book covers you want, format them to whatever size you’d prefer and then print on sticker paper, or I guess you could do normal paper and then just glue it down ❤
Your photographs with Rocky are gorgeous 🐶. I’m in a reading slump at the moment, I have some books I think I want to save for fall/Halloween. I love cosy reads especially at that time of year. and I love when you say that you live in the real world and why would you want to read about it, that’s what I say too !. You have a picture in your background wall sometimes of a little house in the snow, is it famous ? if so what is it called. I think it’s beautiful and want one. I send you my love and lots of happiness from the UK, also haven’t mentioned anything but have been thinking of you during your recent loss. Bright blessings Lea 🐶💕🦋
Hey Katherine! 🥰 I just wondered if you ever received my PO BOX I sent you? It was probably before Christmas now… but I’ve never sent anything to one, and I wondered if it actually worked!? Especially as I sent it from the UK, I’ve never used the US Amazon site 🥴😂 It was my book, Silver Soul. I’d love to know if it actually worked💜 Love your vlogs, always so soothing 🥰
@KatherineKaras What happened with the your study grant? I wanted to do something similar with my degree (in Cuba), but life events prevented it from happening. I was very interested to see your progress/results with your study. 🙂
I follow you for a lot of years and I didn´t know that you love F1!!! I´m from Spain so my absolute favorite driver it´s Fernando Alonso, what´s your favorite driver? thank you for your videos, you are like a safe and cozy place when I need it.
I am enjoying your videos, but for some reason there are ads literally every two minutes. I'm 25 minutes in and there have been 12 ad breaks. I guess youtube is trying to force me to get premium. But great videos.

"Shady Hollow" is my new obsession. I read all books from this series in July and I love it. It's cozy and fluffy.

I’m reading book 5 in the shady hollow series right now. They’re all so cute and cozy!

I’ve been wanting to read it too! I’m waiting for my library to get it 😊
@@Lillyjoy Amazing! I hope you enjoy it 🤓 I don’t read heaps of cutesy books but it’s so vibey and wholesome without being twee.
omg yess angelina ballerina😍 (and i hate mice lol) the spellshop is my patreon buddy read so thank you for putting me in the mood for it hah i'm so glad you loved legends & lattes!
If you want more animal books, I liked the Heartwood Hotel series. It’s for children but it was so cute and cozy.

Guards! Guards! By Terry Pratchett might be the type of cozy you're looking for 😊🖤
Salad Cream is THE best! 😆 Fortunately we can get it in Australia too.
Love a long one 🤗
Omg I did not know that u like F1. 🎉 We share the same hobbies! Thanks for calming my mind when I feel overstimulated. Sending you lots of love from Italy ❤

so jealous that you managed to get an arc of a sorceress comes to call!!
OMG! What an awesome channel! 💝
Cute T-shirt - Kamchatka 🌬️🦭

sometimes i wanna live in the woods by myself too but ur right id be too scared too 😭
The raven cycle series by Maggie stiefvater is kind of magical realism. Magical forests, four kids searching for a lost Welsh king.
Urrrr vibes ❤❤❤❤❤❤rocky is sooooo cute❤

Please make a video about your scholarship in Belize, and what you’re doing since finishing college!
Need that phone case 👀
did you read tithe by holly black? pretty sure the main character is a pixie!!
Do you speed up audio books? Is that a thing?
Can you even enjoy it that way? 😮
Your videos are my favorite thing on sundays! Also, have you picked the Patreon buddy read for August?
omg mentioning waking up way too early for an F1 race is so based, me too! Now it's F1 summer :( Oh! But a nice rec would be criers war very pleasant read.

I have been on a cozy fantasy kick since I read The Honey Witch by Sydney J. Shields and I think it would be right up your ally ☺ 🍄.

For more cozy fantasy you could try books by J A Collignon she has two cosy fantasy's called, A Second Story and A Little Luck they're self published
Your photographs with Rocky are gorgeous 🐶.

just when i thought i couldnt enjoy you more, you're an F1 girlie!!!???
Do you have the link for the hobbit audiobook you mentioned on RUclips? I would love to listen to it!
i’m not sure if i missed the name of the ceramicist, can someone tell me what their name is? loving their work i would love to buy from them
I follow you for a lot of years and I didn´t know that you love F1!!! I´m from Spain so my absolute favorite driver it´s Fernando Alonso, what´s your favorite driver? thank you for your videos, you are like a safe and cozy place when I need it.
My safe place
That is Petco in NYC?! Unbelievable. All the Petcos in my area should be ashamed.
you probably get asked this all the time but where is your phone case from? 🖤🕷️🕸️
I think that's called a part in your hair, not a path.
I am enjoying your videos, but for some reason there are ads literally every two minutes. I'm 25 minutes in and there have been 12 ad breaks. I guess youtube is trying to force me to get premium. But great videos.
Hiya I sent your shop Instagram a message concerning my order. Would appreciate hearing back
Maybe those seeking danger are more mentally ill than those seeking comfort?! 🤭
As someone who lives in upstate NY, I’d pass! I vote New England 100000%! 🤍🍂
