This was fun, to see you so excited about opening your books. As a former book designer myself, I love how excited you get about beautiful covers, that you take off the jacket to admire the hardcover underneath, and get so excited about the sprayed edges. 😊 Enjoy your beautiful books! Sounds like that is going to be a really fun subscription for you, and I wouldn't mind seeing each book you get.
Joel, I love your exhilaration over getting new books! I am looking forward to seeing a vlog of you in your future manse (as we say in America, "Bigger is better.") in your library perched gloriously on a rolling ladder that moves you with stately elegance, purpose and determination from shelf to shelf like the famed Queen Elizabeth vessel did from port to port.
Enjoyed this video as a book lover myself. 50 years of book acquisition, mostly paperbacks but also many hardcovers shelved all over the house. Good thing I've done some wookworking and made custom bookcases including floor to ceiling. Would be more but we're out of room - my wife also is a reader. Even taught myself some rudimentary bookbinding so that I could rebid paperbacks in hardcover. Last 10 years or more, almost entirely e-books. Like I said, no more room!
"Well done for making it this far" 😂 I absolutely love that you said that. Can you just end every video that way? 😁🤣 Watching your videos is like a guilty pleasure for me, like getting to go hang out with a friend. Or like shopping for things you need as an excuse to get things you don't need as well 😅 LOL. I'm a fellow all things books lover, and I was geeking out with you! Loved seeing your excitement and of course the beautiful books. Can't wait to see more! 😊
Well, seeing as your channel is everything Joel, then this works. I love seeing you get excited about your new books. I used to read non-stop, too, until I started getting headaches and migraines due to my head placement when I read. I need to be so careful now, alot of the joy is gone. I live vicariously through you! 😊❤
I love books, and I love reading. So, I enjoyed this vlog. I am reading a book called The Women of Chateau Lafayette, and it is sooo good. I highly recommend it!
I love your love of books. I'm the same. Especially the right genre with the right author. You just get giddy and can't help it. Can't wait to hear your review of all these that you've just added to your library. The locked library is such a cool idea. And those are really gorgeous books.
Those books were gorgeous. Babel is on my TBR list, and if you like stories set at Oxford, watch A Discovery of Witches then read the series- I just suggest that because the visuals help you understand the plot etc. Then there is an another RUclipsr Ruby Granger currently studying there now and she’s actually reading old manuscripts and studying in old libraries and going to bookstores in the area-it’s fantastic.
A book lover's dream! No wonder you were so excited. Each of the books is a stunning edition. At £20 each, you can build a spectacular collection. Subscriptions are currently closed but we can be wait listed for the future.
Ooooooooh!!! I love those special editions! I think art on the edge of the pages is so classy. Have you seen the art that appears when you slightly fan the edge of a book??? I think that's even more magical, but I've only seen photos or videos - never one in person. I love your passion for books. ☺️
I love that you love books. I especially like finding an old book and wondering about the the people who read it and what their life was like back then. Take care and have a pleasant and rewarding weekend 😊.
You should look into other subscriptions, as there are a couple of uk based ones. Fairyloot, illumicrate, etc. As a book dragon, I love a pretty special edition ♥️
Awesome video & content. Books are wonderful. I will look into if available in the USA. My son would so love the subscription. Your joy made me feel good when I didn’t realize I needed a lift. Thanks for all you do 🤗🙋🏼♀️
I was smiling the whole time watching this, I haven’t seen you so jazzed for a video! 😊 Do you know if that subscription service is available in all countries? I just love how much you enjoy books, it is such a beautiful pastime, and there’s just something about an actual physical book. And those ones are simply stunners! 😍 Thanks for sharing them with us. ❤
Your enthusiasm about books is wonderful to see! I'm glad you're going to include these book reviews in your videos. I just started The Inheritance Games and I'm already hooked!
Love how you totally geeked out on the books. I understand your excitement and share the same passion for books, especially fantasy. Hope your next box comes in on time and that you film the unboxing to share with us. Have a great weekend. See you in the next vlog.
Yay a book video my favorite. This can be a expensive hobby when you start collecting these special editions books on there own outside these book boxes subscription 🙈
I'm such a book nerd! The Locked Library is for me! OH NO! Just checked aind t's not available for the US....booooo! Plus, it's sold out and on waitlist.
Hiya Joel, have you read Wuthering Heights that I sent to your P.O Box? not too worry if you haven't, I haven't got time to read books anymore, but I get satisfaction what you do, this is Choppy in Whitehaven, Cumbria, England

Your excitement over books is certainly captivating and catching, too. I join you in your love for books! Thanks, Joel.
Love the bookish content! Both of those editions are so beautiful!
Joel, your enthusiasm is contagious!!
Wow! This was really cool and exciting. Nothing like holding a REAL book in your hand. Well done on the subscription, Joel!

Try audiobooks.

I was raised by a librarian and spent every summer in the library, so I love your love of books ❤
Love it! This needs to be a series. “Books with Joel”
I love your love of books. I'm the same. Especially the right genre with the right author. You just get giddy and can't help it. Can't wait to hear your review of all these that you've just added to your library. The locked library is such a cool idea. And those are really gorgeous books.
The first book, from the locked library looks so beautiful! I want to read that one too!

I love books so this was great! Just don’t let Keegan jump in the pool with your new books.😉

We love to see you so happy! This video was fun!
I love Joel obsessing over books. 📚
I love that you love books. I especially like finding an old book and wondering about the the people who read it and what their life was like back then. Take care and have a pleasant and rewarding weekend 😊.
Those books are beautiful! I'm excited for you.
I absolutely love books, the feel of them in your hands, the smell of the binding... It's magical!
Welcome to the addiction of special edition book boxes 😂
I started with LitJoy, then OwlCrate, and Fairyloot and it’s just madness.
All your vlogs are worth watching .
I love books! I live in a library. Lovely video.
Those books are so beautiful. I love reading, pretty sure I was born with a book in my hand lol.
Those are such gorgeous books! I am a book addict and try to buy hardbacks now, if possible.

Ooh please do more video's like this one Joel! I'm just as much a booknerd this video is like heaven to me
Oh I’m so glad you liked it!!! It’s not done very well with views but I love books so part of me doesn’t care!!
@@TheJoelWood It's your channel you've got to be happy with the content as well, right? So do what you want

I could hear Joel say “Janarta Mean” on a loop honestly 😂
Love how you totally geeked out on the books. I understand your excitement and share the same passion for books, especially fantasy. Hope your next box comes in on time and that you film the unboxing to share with us. Have a great weekend. See you in the next vlog.
“Is this something to do with your hippo?”
Literally a sec later, Joel: “nope, nothing to do with my hippo.”
Poor hippo. 😂
I love how geeked out you are about books! You’re my kind of people!😜
Beautifully designed books.
Those books are beautiful!
Love books!!
I get Bookish Box. lol. They are fun. I get the goodies, tshirt and book!
Watched the whole video 😊. Love the books pieces of art. ~Cara ❤
I love your excitement over books. I get the same way.😊❤
Love books ❤ really like to hear about what your reading. I run a book club so this is massively odd interest
I looked online in Italy they have lots of really nice old stone home for cheap
Thanks for sharing your love of books. I am so jealous of how inexpensive books are in the UK! Just remember, a book lover never goes to bed alone!
I can’t believe how expensive they are abroad!! I’m sorry 😢
Yay a book video my favorite. This can be a expensive hobby when you start collecting these special editions books on there own outside these book boxes subscription 🙈
You do you and we will 😊
I share you love for books. I liked this video very much - more please 🙂
Gutted. The locked library have sold out of subscription positions! This sounds right up my street!
Brilliant! Joel, your enthusiasm is infectious. Thanks for sharing this with us all. 😂
Hahah! I’m glad thanks for watching!!
Love books.
So Joel, do you ever think that you could get Keegan to reed any of these books?
I like books too. Good video. Well done ✅
Those books are beautiful! I love to look around a bookstore.
Same!! So relaxing!
You should start a book club channel
I love your videos!
Looooove books!!
More fantasy book content!!
Guess Joel won't be reading his hardbacks in a pool or hot tub, eh? 😂
❤❤❤
Jack Edwards talking about BookTok, Joel Wood talking about books in general. Great day for cute Brits who like reading.
I’m in the USA and love reading!
It’s not in the US. I wonder why. :(
I'm such a book nerd! The Locked Library is for me! OH NO! Just checked aind t's not available for the US....booooo! Plus, it's sold out and on waitlist.
Ahhh that’s so annoying!!!!!
Hey Joel, if you like your books, you should just go ahead and say so. : > )
Hiya Joel, have you read Wuthering Heights that I sent to your P.O Box? not too worry if you haven't, I haven't got time to read books anymore, but I get satisfaction what you do, this is Choppy in Whitehaven, Cumbria, England
How beautiful
