    I’ve only known the readathon as Orilium and I LOVE it!! You do an amazing job building this world that allows the participant to dive deep if they want or just use the prompts. It’s very inclusive in that way and I love it. We love you G!

    I was a Dutchie, living in Dublin when I found your channel. I remember that you only had 2 or 3 videos up when I found you and have been a loyal subscriber ever since. I've also been part of your patreon for quite a while, but had to stop that due to financial reasons. Your videos made me feel less alone and back in the day and nowadays are just a comfort watch every singel time. Please keep going for a long while to come even if sporadically ❤

    I found you when you only had a couple of videos uploaded. It has been amazing to follow you through the years. From Book in a Jar to your own fantasy world is amazing. You have pushed me to read more for almost 8 years now. You have created such a beautiful and loving community with this channel. I have always been a silent subscriber but I have still loved your videos. Thank you for you and all that you have created ❤❤

    I just want to say, you make some of my favorite content on this platform. Even if you're not producing videos as fast as some other creators, the thoughtfulness and creativity you put into your videos is mindblowing and that's way more important to me. I can't imagine not following your channel and I know I'm not the only one. I also find your book recommendations to be actually really helpful and I've enjoyed a lot of books you've liked.
    Oh also - I have probably not been here all 8 years but I participated in I think 2 or 3 years of the magical readathon so a while haha.
    ALSO - fuck people who give you shit over your accent. I'm an immigrant in the US from the Balkans and your background is literally part of why I love your channel. I love your accent.

You inspired me in many ways, so thank you for everything you do and what you have to deal with to get there. You are amazing G!! ♥️

Your channel and presence mean a lot to me; you're one of the people who motivated me to learn more English, to read more in English, and now I do professional translation as a side business. Probably wouldn't have ended up there without you.

    I found you last Spring due to the magical readathon and God bless the RUclips algorithm for helping me find you. I am still in awe about how much work you put into the world of Aeldia and Orilium - and for everyone to share for free!
    Also, thank you for acknowledging the special place that Harry Potter has in many of our hearts. It is so hard to separate art and artist - and it is very difficult to struggle with the feelings of not agreeing with an author's views AT ALL and still wanting to love their work. I think the way you said it described that feeling well - after the author showed her true colours, she no longer has my support for her as a person, but I find it difficult to deny how much I love the Harry Potter story.

I have to say I surpass my reading goal and had to make new ones. I am surprised at how much reading I got done, due to participating in the read-a-thon. Thank you for providing a space for that. Congrats on the 8 years. 🎉

The reason I started supporting you in the first place is because of how open you are about your health struggles. I've had health problems since I was a teenager and it makes me feel less alone to hear other people can relate and also use fiction to escape!
