Thank you everyone for enjoying this video! If you want more, be sure to check out the one where I actually try to get rid of and organize this chaos! Let me know if you think I succeed! ruclips.net/video/2aiGUvJ1YNU/видео.html
I have to agree, used and worn out books are really one of the best things. Usually they're like that for a reason, which means they have a story you can share with others
Exactly!
The chaos, the aesthetics, the comments! Perfection!
It is so nice to see your kids are readers too! I wish my kids shared my obsession with books!
It's been fun to share this passion with them!
I have LOTS of books, on three shelves and two book carts but this takes it to another level. I'm thinking of converting a spare room to look like this. Something you said, resonated with me, " I never had my own. I just got them from the library." I was the same and God Bless the library system, but I think those of us who haunted the library; as kids; always wanted our OWN libraries. I love that the room divider shelves are open. It keeps the entire space from feeling closed off. Also, you are lucky to have had the opportunity to go to book signings, with well known authors. No one ever comes to a town near me. Brigid Kemmerer once came to my state, but not close enough to me.
I made my siblings play "librarian" with me. And guess where I work now in real life?? A library! (Not as a librarian, but still!) And yes, I have been so lucky to meet so many amazing authors!
I could spend hours just browsing through your eclectic collection; just one thing missing: your own book: a book lovers tale possibly!
Working on my own book....😂
🤣🤣🤣 love you trying to read a classic and your 2yr old ripping out the pages! Amazing!
Oh wow! Absolutely amazing! I always enjoy a look into other people's collection, thank you for showing yours! 💜
I know it's a bit out of control...lol! Thanks for watching!
@@sueysbookbanter oh no, I love it!
Love it! Continue to enjoy the story of your lives. Thank you for sharing!
Loved every bit of this! 💚🦋
Loved this !!😍
Wonderful video and collection! Thank you for sharing. ❤
Organise books!!!! My two favourite words!
I love your chaos and your library - looking forward to more videos 💜📚
Chaos, books and organize! Best things ever, right? Yes, I'll film the process, if I can just find time to get to it all!
This is the cutest video ever! Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much for watching!
Love your collection of books! 😊
Thanks for sharing your library. I enjoy hearing what others have in their library/what they read,
I immensely enjoyed seeing this organized chaos. 😍
Loving the tour of your books! My picture book shelves are overflowing. So glad to hear you enjoy These Broken Stars series. I wish more people have heard/read the series. Lola and the Boy Next Door is my fav of the three. Even though Lola annoys me the most out of all the heroines of the trio. I wasn't aware Bree Despain is a local author. I enjoyed her books.
I really need to re-read Lola, and the other books in that series. Cricket is one of my all time favorite characters and and I miss him!
Cricket truly id's a great book-boyfriend 💕
Tons of love.
I am too building up a small library .
You are an inspiration
Suey, I love bookshelf tours and yours is my new favorite! What a great collection! I love it!! Thanks for sharing!
Ah thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
I love the stories behind the books - the 2 copies that you and your husband used in class and have marked up differently, will be a treasure for your children. And I laughed at that story of the binding of the Harry Potter copy.
Great video!
Thanks so much for watching! I'll have to do more storytime-type videos!
I AM SO JEALOUS!!!!!!!! And here I am, with my one measly bookshelf... I'm definitely going to use your video to guilt my husband into getting us at least one more bookshelf...
Lol! Let me know how it goes! Promise him you'll do a better job at keeping them pretty and organized. 😅
I am loving seeing lots of kids and older books on your shelves.
This is so cool.
Congratulations! Really great library!
I REALLY LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!
THANK YOU!
14:41 - I got that, you both remind me of me and my Mum! 💜📚
OMG that’s amazing!!! It is my dream to have similar home-library someday!
I just found your channel through this video and I'm in love with your library! You are truly living the dream, I want to someday have this!
It's a bit insane, but yes, so fun!
You have everything! From picture books to classics! And look at the views ! How exciting! You have won the internet.
"won the internet" LOL! I wish!
Oh wow! Suey. What a great collection of books!! Came here after MJ's shout-out. Glad to have found your channel. Subbed!
Yay! Thanks for watching! I will return the sub.. .and wait.. .did MJ shout me out? LOL!
Hi. I just found your channel and this is the first video that I’m watching and I subscribed immediately. I love your library ❤️
Ah I'm so glad you found me and thanks so much for subscribing. I hope you enjoy the other videos too!
Your collection is amazing!
Thanks for watching!
11:24 ooooh so many intrigued YA fantasy series.
I also want to read the Illuminae books - jealous you have hardcovers they are like gold dust!
12:45 - oh no 😭😭😭😭 that must have felt like such a disappointment.
I am enjoying Tori the Camera controller's comments too. I love a reading family 😍📚💜
We do our other channel together (well, we used to anyway) and she pushed me to get going on this booktube one, so she will most likely be quite involved here too.
A book aficionado myself, I'm so in awe with your not so little book den. Would really love to see it in real. Its now become my obsession and also therapeutic just watching it!
LOL! I love this therapeutic! I hope you catch the one I just uploaded where I reorganized everything. It stressed me out so much, but video is sort of soothing I think! Let me know!
@@sueysbookbanter can you give tips on how people like me with small bookshelf can accommodate more books? I'm really interested in how the books can be stored and maintained.
13;42 - oooh I like the Knife of Never Letting Go Covers! I have borrowed the Trilogy from a friend! Need to read!
Very beautiful.
Thank you! 😊
Loveeeee! I must go recount my books and hope I can even come remotely close to your count! 😊
I haven't actually truly counted, but my daughter has logged many of them into a Goodreads account we just call our library... and she is around 1700 there and has a TON more to log, so we are guessing well over 2000. It's crazy. I keep thinking I'll get rid of some, but I can never manage to do it!
@@sueysbookbanter
Get rid of some? You know what I say, “Don’t do it!!!” 🤣 It’s indeed a spectacular delight for my eyes. I love to see it. 😊
Fun video. So many YA books I've read. I love that Starbound series (These Broken Stars, etc.) by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner. Also loved the Lunar Chronicles series. And the Leviathan books by Scott Westerfeld. I've loved his other books I've read. Also enjoyed Graceling by Kristin Cashore that's on Tori's TBR shelf. I'm reading Bill Bryson's At Home: A Short History of Private Life right now.
Oh that Bill Bryson sounds fun! So many great books! My problem is I often read one or two of the series, but then never finish. The worst!
14:05 - I am with Tori here 😉 currently re-reading Percy!
My my is this your room? not a shop? WOW I am in awe. xx
It's a corner of my basement family room, yep!
I know it may not seem significant or meaningful for you, but I have watched your bookshelf tour several times and those are my favorite videos done by booktubers. I'm always on the lookout for new books, older books, series, authors...as I am currently curating my own collection. I would love if you would do more videos maybe taking one genre at a time and detailing your collection, the authors, the bookcovers, your favorites, how you acquired them (what you can recall, lol)... I would watch them alot!
Oh fun! I would love to do this!
Okay, I've started this project! ruclips.net/video/JNb9L9t5Weg/видео.html
I like how you called it a little corner 😂
🤣🤣🤣
A M A Z I N G !!!!! A slice of heaven. 📚
Right? Chaotic heaven!
Thank you so much for this wonderful library tour! I am so reminded of my own childhood home that was filled with books. Just wonderful!!! Did you tell us what is in the white binders on the bottom shelves?
Those are photo albums! Be sure and check out when we reorganized this space just a month or so after this video was taken, and I think the photo albums are for sure mentioned then. ruclips.net/video/2aiGUvJ1YNU/видео.htmlsi=Plpt0sLgZConC-XK
I wish ive read even a fraction of the amount of books you had, ive been working on it though! I really want to get back into reading and try different genres this time 😆
I wish you all the luck! You got this! And remember, it doesn't really matter how MANY books you read, just that you read something and enjoy the journey. 🥰
I love your bookshelves! I think I have about as many books as you do, but mine are a bit more chaotic. I still have my copy of Mr. Pine's Mixed-Up Signs and I've read it to my daughter now too. My late mom kept all of my childhood books and it was amazing to be able to give my daughter my old book collection.
I truly do love a bit of chaotic-ness with bookshelves. I think it goes with the territory, you know what I mean? And guess what? I FOUND MY MR. PINE BOOK! It was on a different shelf with the old falling apart books! LOL!
@@sueysbookbanter Yay, I'm so glad you found it! And yes, I too enjoy a certain amount of chaos with the books. The most chaotic ones are my 7 year old's books, of course, but my non-fiction shelves are almost as bad. 😂
Subscribed!!!!
Your video was suggested on my feed and I intended it to be background watch I would like and not comment on...but I can't help it!
2:27 - I LOVE usbourn books! I grew up with them, I bought them for my children and they now publish middlegrade book too!
I also clocked the Inkheart Trilogy hardback spines! And Dragon Rider 😍
Your Bookshelves are about the sane ages as my oldest child 😍
And lol to your kids "you'll never fill that" "Watch me!" 😉😆🤣
Ah I'm so glad you found me and enjoyed this crazy video!
Great Collection
Thanks so much for watching!
7:56 - I love that shelf of favourite classics! I do not know who "Mrs Pigglewiggle" is, but with a name like that I want to! 🤣😍
Oh you must look it up!!
Came for the chaos, stayed for Suey.
My favorite comment so far!! Lol! 🥰
24:22 - Woooooooooooo I knew you were my people! Just re-read Era 2 in preparation! For Sanderson's latest!
I am so behind!!!
My dream room❤
"Someone borrowed the prisoner of Azkaban"... I remember who borrowed it :p
Who????

@@drewj829 🤣
The Books of Pellinor series by Alison Croggon is one of my favorites. I still have my collection from my childhood and I'm trying to get my husband to read them.
I enjoyed taking a peek at your bookshelves! If I may recommend a book for you to read from your TBR shelf..it would be Revolution by Jennifer Donnelly.
I'm sure I would love it!
The victon shirt 😭🙌🏼
Ah fellow kpop fan! Friends forever!!
Omy gosh !! 😮😮😮
Kind of insane, right?
You have so many books!
Also you should definitely read all of the Riordanverse (Percy Jackson, Heroes of Olympus, Trials of Apollo, etc.)!
I really really need to read them...
You are never too old for these books! They are amazing. Such fun reads with great characters.
@@mrskiserblade8073 ikr!!
What was the soap opera book that pulled out on the classics shelf? Loved watching! Makes me wish I had kept all my old school and kids books.
That one is The Forsyte Saga. There has been a series made of it!
5:58 - Gail Carson Levine! The comfort read author of my teens! 💜📚
This is IN YOUR HOUSE?!?!?! Well. We don’t need a library, you just need to issue out cards for people to borrow from your house lol
My kids do it! LOL!
@@sueysbookbanter lucky kids lol
when I saw those binders my first thought was are they kpop binders? 😭 collecting both kpop and books is expensive but its just soooo much fun like I love matching the pc in my phone case to the book im reading
Wah! I have lots of pcs, but I haven't put them in binders... yet. They just stay with their albums. Can you imagine having that many pcs??? I've never thought of matching a pc to a book! That sounds so intriguing!
24:41 - lol I also loved Kathryn by Anya Seaton when I read it, I should try another of hers!
One of my all time favorite books. I consumed so many Anya Seton books back in the day! I should re-read one for old times sake...
Are you a quilter too? That Log Cabin is gorgeous.
Yes! I mean I used to and I have so many projects to do still. The Log Cabin was actually the first thing I ever quilted!
I have that same Abraham Lincoln book.
Awesome! Pretty sure this is a Scholastic Book Fair book from my childhood days. I loved that thing!
Hello! Allen, here. Flo @Grape Jelly turned me onto your channel. Very impressive library, indeed.
Ah, thanks so much for dropping by! I hope you find some other fun bookish things around here. 😊
Why did i not look for more need Marcus Zusak? 🙈 I love the Book Thief!
I love all his books soooo much!
I was so happy to not see any foxing! I lost 80% of my collection (3 Billy bookcases) this yr from foxing. So much empty space that I'm to scared to fill back up!
Are the white folders home-schooling files? (My random guess from their names lol)
I think your billy's could fit all the toppers/extensions? That would give you 3 more shelves? Your roof looks high enough?
What is foxing? 🤔 The white binders are photo albums! Wait, we can extend the billies up higher? 🤯 I need to think about that!
The demon king series is amazing
I need to finish it!
What? Jane Eyre is my favorite classic!
People hate Mr Rochester and think Jane is stupid. And the age difference is disgusting. Yep.
@@sueysbookbanter To be fair, I haven't read it since the 9th grade when I fell in love with it and it was the only classic that I enjoyed and read to enjoy. Now with a matured mind, I wonder how I would feel about it.😬
I only read classics Dostoviesky is my favorite author and others like chejov, proust, Gogol, Emile Zola, Maupassant, Tolestoi, Nobokov, Clarín,Cervantes, Thomas Mann, Kafka, Herman Hess, Balzac, Victor Hugo......
An awesome list of authors! Some I know better than others....
"It's madness I tell you ... MADNESS" Phoebe Buffay
LOL! YES! Yes it is!
I think you should retry the Percy Jackson books. They are so good no matter your age!
I cringed when I edited and "heard" myself say that because I often get on a soap box about things we think are for a certain age only... what the heck was I even thinking? So yes, I should totally try them again! Prove myself wrong absolutely!
The first time I started reading Harry Potter I was bored and not connecting with the story. When I returned the book to my father in law he asked how I liked it. I told him it wasn't for me. At this time bk4 was already out. He was a little confused, thinking this series was perfect for my reading tests. He explained some of the magic and friendships that where yet to come if I have the book a second try.Trying the book again with some foreknowledge of how the hp world worked I feel in love with it. I read all four within a month and became a fan who anxiously awaited each of the next big releases.
damm i don't need any trip , any sports car or any luxury i need you to be my neighbour for whole of life ..epic
🤣
greetings.beauutiful editing. see ya!~Suey's~
Thank you very much!
You have a TON of classics. I think I have like 10. 🤦🏻♀️
I miss my classics days! 😭
You felt like your were "too old" for Percy Jackson!?!?!?
I love well loved beat up books as long as I'm the one that overly loved it.
How do you find a book you are looking for? Do you re-read? Do you have a master list of everything you own?
When I read Percy, I didn't connect with it, and so I assumed it was too "kiddish" for me I guess. I should give it more of a chance, yes? As far as finding books, we are organizing them like a library, so by authors and categories. So it's pretty easy to find stuff if it's where it's supposed to be. Tori is cataloging them into goodreads so that's another way to remember if we actually have a book. But we still have a long way to go with that project. Do I re-read? Yes! But not a ton...
i want to live here
How did u Maintain to buy 2,00+ books can u share yr ideas with me..am ready to apply the same method for my library
So I'm thinking...I'll make a video about this to answer your question. Look for it!!
@@sueysbookbanter thank u so much..am waiting for it...l want to 2,000+ on my personal Library
Is your collection cataloged on LibraryThing? Another way for viewers to browse…
I have tried to do it there, but we have tried to log them all on Goodreads...
Do you need a big house to build a home library?
I would say not at all! You can figure out all sorts of creative ways to to build a library at home!
How were u able to manage to buy all 2000 + books can u teach me that..
This is an accumulation after 35 (or more) years of collecting! One (or two) books at a time!
@@sueysbookbanter wow....thank you so much
28:23 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
You’re not too old for Rick Riordan. I’m 58 and think his books are great. (except his Valhalla books. )
You are right, I am not too old... I truly need to give them another chance. I just remember not really getting into that first one... but maybe now I would!
Never read a book in my life don't have 1 book
Never? Oh wow, that needs to change! Maybe I'll do a video with some suggestions 🤔
Honestly I have never really cared much wether a book was an award winner. Being an award winning book doesn't automatically make it good. Plus many awards for things like books, movies etc... tend to be decided by a small group of people.
So true.
