Very enjoyable video, I really like your insightful & considered grace & calm, very engaging. I had a blast doing this tag also, so really enjoyed seeing what you did with it, thanks very much.
So great to hear the philosophy behind your videos. I always admired how consistent you are with your style and that you don’t give in to the flashy titles and thumbnails. One day we’ll go grab a coffee and talk about books for 4 hours my Aussie friend! Also, I love the way you say „assume“ 🤧 Bless you!
Oh, I am so glad I tagged you! This was back-to-back insights about you as a creator and thinker (your thoughts on hate comments were especially illuminating), insights I hadn't realized I wanted to know about you but am glad to now know them. I feel slightly hooked on these facade-breaking videos, ones that discuss the background considerations and choices of creators. Your comments at the very end about genuine pretending were, of course, perfectly apt for this whole process. We attempt to connect and must make concessions for the sake of that connection, and that is necessary and good and often unavoidable. If you ever end up near Los Angeles we NEED to tour some used bookstores together-truly there are some greats out here! Everything you're doing with your channel is exceptional and much-appreciated (definitely one of those cult indie classic channels at this point)!
Thank you so much for watching and tagging me :D I hope you'll enjoy the vid I have planned for the end on the month on how to talk about books on RUclips. I'll 100% take you up on your offer for a tour if I ever make it to the US!
Really enjoyed this! Good to see you branching out into unfamiliar territory. Glad to have the tags you made as a reference list for likewise booktubers. Not sure if you’ve found Sherdstube yet, but I highly suggest his stuff based on the stuff you like to watch/read. Thanks for your contribution!
Enjoyed this discussion and glad to have found your channel through this vid. Great job. Now i have to go check out some of the other channels you mentioned, thanks
Some very interesting topics have been considered here. I especially liked your highlighting RUclips's veiled hatred of solely bookish content. Ideally they'd like us to frill and fluff our videos with edits, short-cuts and jazzy thumbnails. I'll be soon be answering these prompts in a video of my own!
i’ve been subscribed to yr channel for a little while (altho i don’t think i’ve ever commented?), and it’s interesting to get yr answers to this tag :)
I’d say I’m … about as honest as a BookTuber. 🧐 The algorithm brought me here today. Read read seed bed, Read read said Reed Read read dead dead Read read we’d bleed Look forward to your next.
The day you start questioning whether or not a book tuber has read a particular book, that is the moment you realize you're running into the problem of projection. Welcome to the desert of the real For some channels, not naming any names, people literally put their entire physical book collection on conspicuous display or talk about reading 10-15 books for a month without the hint of a pause. It's not very realistic! People projecting the image of learnedness and cultural refinement to fit into a circumscribed online aesthetic, to impress people they don't even like while keeping up with the metaphoric Joneses. Then there's the BookTube-type literary monoculture pinned to a confined definition of what counts as worthy reads . You notice in spite of the external differences like personalities and delivery style, they all seem to be reading and promoting the same books in the main with minor differences, give or take. The same authors. The same myopic genres as if they were living by a secret pact, a blood oath amongst themselves. Why won't these book tubers take some time to share their thoughts on an influential nonfiction book like Charles Darwin "The Voyage of the Beagle," that paved the way for the institutionalization of biology as we know it, or Adrienne Mayor's interdisciplinary text, "The First Fossil Hunters: Dinosaurs, Mammoths, and Myth in Greek and Roman Times." Certain names always get thrown into the mix, you know what I mean: James Joyce, Donna Tart, Faulkner, Toni Morrison, Mary Oliver, J R.R. Tolkien, etc Thanks for the share 🙂. I've been following your videos ever since you did that "Don Quixote" review at the end of last year, a book I am currently reading. Love the spirit of openness and your honesty bro! Keep on doing you🙏

Did you know you’re a cutie? Can’t believe I stayed for the whole video. Bruz I’m seeing you tomorrow.
Well spoken, very personable.

Surprised you didn’t list PaperBird. Very entertaining book videos.

Look forward to your next.
Don't be a booktuber, you're better than that.
We don't need more top 10's and book hauls.
