    I feel like if I read a book to someone over facetime, i'd end up stopping and discussing it every two minuets 😐

    it wouldn't be a Catriona reading vlog without falling asleep while reading honestly. lol

    if you don't have a huge TBR pile can you REALLY be a booktuber tho???

    I like the older thumbnails, your bookshelf always changes a little bit and I like seeing that. It’s oddly satisfying. If that makes sense.

    I enjoy watching your videos because I love the content, regardless of the thumbnail style, so do what you want with them! 😊

  • @lpscrazypaws
    @lpscrazypaws 6 лет назад +18

    I have the same problem. The unread books. My TBR pile is so big.

    Catriona, you're literally my favourite book tuber! Instant thumbs up for all the videos you post.
    More reading vlogs please! ❤️

    You should do a vlog of what a day at your job in publishing is like!!!

    I listen and read at the same time when it comes to Les Miserables. It really helps with large dense books

    I've always liked watching these kind of videos especially being able to see your live reactions to what you are reading!

    Every time you’ve mentioned that you were cold, I’m like, “I am sweating over here!!” Hahahaha, I am from and living in the USA, and I literally live for Fall and Winter! But good job on the reading! 😃

    The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is awesome. I highly recommend it

    I envy people who can travel read like that. I get so car/bus sick when I try to read, and when I try to watch videos on my phone or tablet. But with my library expanding its digital library of audiobooks, I get to listen to those now when I travel! :)

  • @ronellestanton209

    I'm a really slow reader and I love reading big books along with the audiobook.

    As usual, I love your reading vlogs. It's awesome that you both get to do your hobby whilst in the same room, being together, doing your own thing.

    I know I'm like a month late, but I read and listen to books quite often! I think it's the perfect way to speed up the reading a bit while still absorbing everything as if I was merely reading it!

    I read books 2 and 3 of The Stormlight Archive along with the audiobook during #TomeTopple, myself. I also felt that I was able to pick up the the content easier-yet faster- too.

    @MegBookishRamblings 6 лет назад

    Yayyyyy another reading vlog! I always look forward to them and seeing what bookish things you're up to! I was drooling a bit over seeing the stacks of special HP books at your work and that you have a copy of Muse of Nightmares! I'm glad you were able to get your laptop fixed though it stinks that it had to be done and cost quite a bit. Reading sometimes helps me fall asleep and other times keeps me awake. I wasn't able to get to Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell though I see it every time I look to my left. Congratulations on finishing it by the way! I love big books but I have yet to successfully read one book for the Tome Topple Readathon. I can well relate to looking at shelves and feeling overwhelmed at the amount of unread books on my shelf. I collect way more than I know I'll be able to read in a reasonable amount of time and yet I keep collecting. I have tried to make more of an effort to read my own this year along with the books I borrow or receive. So many books, so little time!

    I know this is probably a weird question, but what shower speaker do you have? Do you like it? I've been wanting to get one to use for audiobooks, but I worry about sound quality with all the sound from the shower. :p

    Swear I read so much faster with those Tome Topple word games. I have an average reading speed, but it fluctuates based on what I’m reading, if I’m reading critical, etc... but I was flying through chapters and still comprehending the stories.

    You should do the thumbnails you want to do. If the new ones are beginning too much for you to do, then don’t worry about it. Personally, I like the old ones anyway. (:
