Soooo glad I found you and Alice! I found her first, then you, through her. I hate that void that's left. I love the curls, though; banish all straightening, lol! 💚
I love this it's a great version of this tag. We've got to get you our our live show. I love livestreams too, they've been a revelation. Gotta say too, Gem, that we had such a laugh at the restaurant last time we met in London....even if it got complicated paying for the meals at the end hahaha
@@GemofBooks Sadly it's too far away for me at the moment....and I'm gutted - I absolutely love the 2 days I've done with you guys. Hopefully it won't be too long before the next one....have a wonderful day Gem!!
Gem hates my intro 😭 😂😂 This was lovely and I could relate to a lot of what you said, esp around the community, friendships and engagement being the main goal, not numbers. I wouldnt trade my pals like you in for more subs!! Very lucky to have been a plodder and defos keep the curls, I have curl envy!! 🫶🏻 Xx
I love watching all of these. I do still watch my videos when I post them because I have some weird anxiety that I have forgotten to edit something out, even though I barely edit. For my work youtube channel which is really niche I do watch the videos on my personal account to boost engagement 😂Thanks for the tag!
I’m not a fan of tags either unless they are discussion ones like this and this is a goodie! It’s so interesting to hear how things have changed over the years and how most Booktubers find their groove and what works for them, or not. Subscriber numbers are definitely overrated, I’ve seen small channels that have way more views and comments than much bigger ones. You’re a great mix of casual and professional Gemma and are guaranteed to make me laugh at least once in every video! 😉
This tag is so interesting! I love to hear about all the experiences other BookTubers made! It's very helpful. Also it's fascinating that book tags and intros are what BookTubers don't do anymore after a while. *lol* I can't help but wonder why that is? I guess that would be a very interesting discussion by itself. And I agree: Keeping a channel up and running for 3 years is truly impressive and you're amazing! 💜
I've got this channel and my book/reading channel. The thing I really don't like is editing myself, because I can't stand my own speech pattern! Then I just get tired of editing part-way through. Hahaha!
Thanks for the tag Gemma, I've already done this one and enjoyed tackling it. Loved your answers, very relatable, I also dropped my intro in the first year.
I was so happy to see this pop up in my feed! Loved your answers to all of this and cannot ever remember you with straight hair, though I must have watched you with it because we have been friends since not long after you started your channel! I love what you said about the intros being fluff!😂 So happy that you started your channel and we became friends ❤
So fun to hear about your time on Booktube! 🥰
Thanks Hannah 🧡🧡
How fun to hear how much joy booktube has brought you. It’s just the best little thing that truly ends up being life changing in the best way. 💕
Soooo glad I found you and Alice! I found her first, then you, through her. I hate that void that's left.

I hate the void too 💔

I would love to be on one of your lives!! 🤩
It really was a laugh - are you doing York this month?

Old and crotchety - so funny!! Love the curls! I'm very glad to have discovered your channel through Alice and am happy to call you friend ❤.
I’m very happy to have you too. 🧡🧡

I feel this in my soul. 😅
I watch all my work ones too 😂😂 that’s not so bad though because I am not in all of them and I don’t edit them 😜
The whippersnappers 😂Love you big time 😘❤️

So grateful that you have become one of my amazing BookTuber friends. 😊💙
Me too 🧡🧡🧡

Awww thanks Jo 🧡 it’s been so nice getting to know you too, and having your support means so much 😘
I really like this tag. Enjoyed your answers. I have no idea how one straightens their hair... is there a straightening iron or something?
😂😂 something like that. I was never very good at it anyway, do defo not in a place to give you good advice on that Brian 😜
You’re a breath of fresh air Gemma. Great to hear about your Booktube journey!
Aww thank you matey 😘🧡

Thanks matey. I think for me I just got bored of filming (and watching) tags. It was a big tag crazy in our corner of BookTube for a while 😂
wonderful to hear about your booktube journey - thank you for your channel!📚✨🫶
tags always feel like a job interview to me, they make me so nervous!
you're great and we LOVE you ♥♥♥
Haha - I think I’d prefer an interview to filming a tag video at the moment 🙈
Love you too!! 🧡🧡🧡
