I can't stand when my mom says: "yeah, Liana is a big reader", person: "why don't you buy her an Ebook? It would be less expensive than buying all those books!" Me: *death stare* I want to feel the pages and smell it's fragance, okay?! Technology is taking over the world!".
I love looking at books, turning the pages, the smell of them, and how satisfying it is when you turn the last page or realize how far you are into the book. I can't stand e-books purely because I can't do any of those things. Same with audio books, but I also find that 1) the readers/narrators read really slow (the one book I listened to was over 8 hours long. It cut off halfway through the book, though, so it was probably close to 15 or 16 hours long) 2) I just love reading words on pages, so audio books aren't for me
I actually prefer ebooks , Because instead of turning pages all you have to do is scroll. Also it gives extra information like how many pages left in a chapter , also how much you’ve read with a percentage. Just an opinion ☺️
@@hibaalsiyabi7098 To be honest, one of the reasons for me not to get one is I would read for hours, and I am worried about getting optical migraines... I have history with those, so it's really annoying. I get the satisfaction from the ebook though 😊 I may get one to some point. In the somewhat near future 😂 but still going to take a few years.
@@hipeople9856 I agree with that. And for some reason I don't get any headaches or migraines when I read for hours, as opposed to looking at a screen for half that time. The feeling and the accomplishment of how long you've come since the last couple of hours is amazing. I like feeling the weight from the book too, and looking at my collection, being able to show some close friends and maybe even lend them a few ones if I trust them enough with them. There's a bond, you know? It makes it intimate and private in a way. So I find it fun and entertaining 🥰 Besides, we already do way too many things online. At least I don't need ta battery or a charger to read my book.
+Evandro Roberto Saaaame. A booktuber is most honest when they're not afraid to voice unpopular opinions. I connect with the person a lot more when someone uploads a video of them unhauling or stuff, because I know I'm getting their honest thoughts on it.
I'm really bad at visualizing characters like when a character is described having a long blonde hair, in my head they would have black hair (for some reason). And when the character decided cut their hair in the middle of the book, "he/she took an axe and chopped off their long blonde hair" I'm like the heck since when do they have blonde hair?
Yeah same. In the Divergent Trilogy i always thought about a blonde girl when it comes to Christina.... yeah than i watched the movies and my mind exploded
OH MY GOSH! I'm not alone! My brain just decides to be a savage and make it's own decisions on what the character looks like. *"you don't own me" begins to play*
Sometimes I’ll envision characters how I want them to look not necessarily how the book describes them. Most times it’s cuz I forget the character descriptions but when I do realize they’re not described as the book describes them, I don’t change it cuz I’ve gotten use to the way I envision them.
I've only listened to audio books when I'm driving because I didn't know what people did with themselves when they weren't driving. Like stare at the wall or finger paint or something? Next time I'll try out your Candy Crush method! Thanks Jesse and great video :D
I listen to audio books while cleaning and stuff like that. I tried listening to audio books while driving... can't do it. I need to be focused on the road traffic and I noticed I'm not 100% focused on it while listening to audio books which is sad actually.
+readbyzoe Adult colouring books are great! Otherwise I just listen to audiobooks before bed, when my eyes are too blurry/exhausted from the day (yet my brain isn't) haha.
1. I hate eBooks, i will never ever read a book on a device unless its like, wattpad 2. I get forehead deep in the fandoms, so much that it might me bad for my mental state 3. I've only just started collecting my books AND I HAVE NO WHERE TO PUT THEM
😂😂 I dont have ebook but i did have wattpad. I dont read wattpad anymore since i cant read in school😔 *#NoBringingOfPhonesInSchool* (I still bring my phone but dont read☝shhhhh😂)
when I'm reading if a sentence goes to the next page I will keep reading the book until a page ends with the full sentence on one page at the end of said page
+Bianca Aguirre omg same I do too but I'm kinda a fast paced reader so I read quickly while I walk and look up quickly to make sure don't bump into anyone or anything lol
this is so me. I read everytime and everywhere. in bus, while walking, in the break in school. you hardly see me not reading. and when i read in public i mostly also listen to music and with some luck, the song has the same emotion as the book gives me in that moment;)
+Twihard Gleek The best part about listening to music and reading, in my opinion, is when you have an intense battle/scene going on and the music matches that perfectly. It adds so much excitement xD.
1. If I know there's gonna be a movie adaptation of a book, I watch the trailer first to see if I'm interested and then I will read the book before seeing the movie. 2. If I physically fit the description of a book character, I imagine myself as that character. 3. I love alphabetizing my books on my shelves. It's kinda therapeutic :)
+Jack Grimm I totally get it! I picked up a children's book from Barnes and noble and it was my favorite book as I child so I got it for that very reason and everyone was like "wth he's like 20 or something and reading a baby book".
+Enrique Valdez i dont read that much middle grade or kids books so when people see me they're like "you're the most intellectual and mature person I know why are you reading Cat in the Hat?"
I love your videos! Please do more unboxings. Don't listen to the haters! Also I think your reviews are the best. Honestly you're just really cool and I wish I could met you.
I've just recently found your channel and have watched like all your videos these past couple of days and I just have to say - you're like one of the most likeable people on youtube! I just get so happy listening to you and your silly personality just brightens my day! Stay awesome
Don't let other people stop you from posting unhauling book video! I seriously enjoy unhauling videos. as for 3 bookish facts about me: I love night reading, I'm a book blogger who enjoys both reading blog posts and watching booktube videos, and I read everything (even the ones that aren't in my comfort zone) :)
I read the acknowledgments in every book because I don't want it to end 😭😭I love when books have maps too because books rarely keep the reader updated with the concept of time and how long it takes them to get places and how many days are passing.. Etc etcAnd I can just stop reading in the middle of a sentence sometimes and not even care because I am hungry or something I need to do is weighing on my mind so I stop reading go and do it and then when I open then book my eyes usually go right to the sentence I left off on ! 😱😂😂 Those are my 3 bookish facts about me ☺️☺️
For the maps part, there is this one book series, the first book is called Deep Blue (it centers around a character named Serafina, it's written by Jennifer Donnelly) and (the edition that I have) has two maps on it
I can relate to so many of these bookish facts about you. Also usually fan art helps me to build the characters in my head if the fan art looks similar to how I would’ve pictured a character. Love this video 💕
Yayyy, you did it! This was really interesting! Also, picture books are weirdly soothing. Like they're just such lovely simple stories and they often are so stunningly designed and illustrated, so no judgement here!
1) if there are two pages left in a chapter, (side by side), I would quickly glance at the end of the sentence of the second page to see what happens (just a glimpse!!) 2) I don't usually fancast the book characters either but for some reason i have a set of characters in my head that are already 'casted' for the main characters. 3) i like to read the book nude and without the cover. ;)
I don't finish series fast. People are always mad and think that I'm somehow letting the whole fandom down but actually I just want to be in the story's world longer and enjoy the possibilities before the end. Also the organization of a series on a bookcase can be the death nell and heaven of book display. The extras that publishers add to books, like little flourishes around the edges, and small pictures, textured covers are amazing and make the story that more real and tangible. Love the reviews - honest and true to reading and readers everywhere - keep it up!
I love children's picture books too! They have some of the most beautiful illustrations/artwork. I have to opposite problem when it comes to predicting books, TV shows, movies - I almost ALWAYS know what's coming.
I love book review videos! I'm also obsessed with bookstagram and recently have starting bookstagramming. You were one of the first people I followed. I love your channel!
First off, I loved this tag! it looks like so much fun, and I guess one bookish fact about me was that I used to hate reading because when I was younger I had dyslexia pretty bad, but over the years, and with a ton of practice I hardly ever struggle reading (unless its like 3 in the morning and then I start reading up the page not down)!
I loved this video! A bookish fact about me is when I was younger I read all the time at school but was bullied for it. This put me off from reading in front of people for years but now I carry a book with me wherever I go and don't care what people think!
Just wanted to let you know that I really love the way you do book reviews with the non-spoiler part first and then you tell us to leave when you get to the spoiler part. In addition to that though, if I see that it's a book I haven't read or have no interest in, I'll probably scroll past the video (not just you, I'd do it to anyone.)
never clicked a notification so fast. I LOVE CANDY CRUSH!!! PICTURE books are da best jesseeeee mortal instruments!!! airport bookstores are so overpriceddddd soooo bookshelf problems 😂😂 no such thing as too many books my favorite videos of yours are the tags. they are hilarious!!!
Awesome video Jesse! Recently I bought a bookshelf from Walmart and failed at building it.... :( I don't know how you and Kat do it! Anyway my bookish facts are: 1. I have a hard time writing negative reviews on books. 2. Once I am in a reading slump, I am depressed! 3. I have a habit of watching booktubers like you, right after I read a book so that I can hear everyone's thoughts!
Hi I just wanted you to know that I'm going to play this in a Reading class I'm teaching as an example of how to talk about yourself as a reader. Keep up the good work!
The reason I don't always watch your book reviews is because sometimes it's a book I plan to read soon and I don't like knowing anything about it! Keep making them though!!
1) I've got 4 1st Editions of Harry Potter, from my late grandmother, and I got really excited thinking that they would be worth loads of money, I would never sell them but you get my drift, but then found out that its quite common in the later books to have 1st editions. 2) Katytastic was the first booktuber that I watched, but I must say now that Jessethereader is my favourite. I do love all book tubers though! 3) My favourite book of all time is I am the messenger by Marcus Zusak. Thanks for the video Jesse! I re-watch them when I feel sad and you make me smile! Keep up the good work!
Omg I cried at the end because Jesse was always complaining to me back in the day (lmao three months ago) how he didn’t have a set schedule and now my baby Jesse has grown and and I’m crying
bookish facts about me: 1) I love to listen to the rain when i read! if it isn’t raining, then i put on a soundtrack of rain in the background 2) My favourite book is “The Art of Racing in the Rain” by Garth Stein and I’ve read it 9 times 3) My favourite harry potter movie is the chamber of secrets but my favourite book is the prisoner of azkaban
1) I love listening to rain as I read, preferably a storm 2) My favorite book is ... Jk... I don't have one. The top 4 are the HP books, the maximum ride series, the Violet Eden Chapters, and the Percy Jacksons. And like a million more. 3) My favorite HP movie is either chamber of secrets or order of the Phoenix, and favorite book is either prisoner of Azkaban or order of the Phoenix. As you can see, I'm very indecisive
I can not believe I found only now! I mean your videos are awesome, even for me, who is trying to write stories. Love your energy. Thanks for being there. :)
The Candy crush-thing is so true, sometimes when I'm playing the game I can hear the audiobook I was listening to while playing that particular level, even though I'm not listening!
I can't stand not finishing a book. I've re-read The Chronicles of Narnia at least a dozen times. I watched LoTR before reading the books-but then I did go read them and thoroughly enjoyed them!
DUDE. Same with the fan casting. I rarely picture actors (unless they are explicitly mentioned in the book, which actually happened to me once recently) when I'm reading. Even writing. And it's not that I don't know any actors, because one of my weird talents is remembering actors' names and what movies they're in. Imagination for the win!
You're always so entertaining to watch ^.^ A few bookish facts about me:1) I don't get drawn into fandoms very easily, even though I love seeing others so passionate about them 2) it takes me an average of 2-3 hours to read 100 pages, depending on the density of the book3) I will write notes in my book and underline passages all day, but I take extreme care to keep new books in new condition on the outside :P
Reviews are some of my favorite videos to do, too and I love that you do so many on your channel. :) I totally get you on the stress about adding new books to your shelves and constantly having to shift. I had to do this yesterday and yea...never satisfied. Never satisfied. Haha.
Haha, I always have Goodreads open. Always! As for children's picture books, I have kids, so I get to read them all the time. They are usually not even there and I'll still be sitting there reading them out loud.
I LOVE your videos! I'm Brazilian and all that I want is improve my English to read all your book suggestions! But I can't understand a lot of things right now, so I hope to get better sooner 😅😅 You're amazing!
i listen to audiobooks before sleep and it will be the best sleep ever. i can't multitask between eating & reading and that sucks because i love doing both of them. busses and trains are my favorite places to read .-.
I think these facts are very interesting. I also don't fan cast my characters either. And if you ever do an unhaul, I would personally love to see it because I like to know everyone's opinions on books before I read them
First bookish fact: i got a book signed by its author but it is towards a friend of her who is a philologist (professor) and then her frien signed it too saying it is now her turn to give it away to somebody so she gave it to me as a birthday present back to when I was nine years old. Secondly, all of the bookmarks I use are handmade. I actually have bookmarks that basically advertise other books cause they are from bookstores (I mean duhh) but I never ever use them. Only the ones I make. And the third bookish fact about me is that I can finish a book in a really short period of time but it takes me freakin ages to find the courage and start reading another book once I finish the last one.
1. Bookstores and libraries are safe places to me. I literary calm down even when I'm very stressed after I walk into one. It's like entering a fairy land. 2. I realized that I prefer middle-grade books to YA because they are often less childish (paradoxical as it may sound), they are not afraid to deal with big themes and they are often better crafted, more challenging and more entertaining than much YA and adult literature. Often the best books are labeled "for young and old readers alike". 3. I also love children picture books (or when there are pictures in books in general). When I manage to find a perfect blend of fine art and a text - it's like music to my eyes and soul. Wonderful video, Jesse, thank you for making my day better
Fact 22 sammmeeeee #relatable and my cousins thought that i was phsyco soing that cause they almost finished the series when i started mine! Love ya you inspired me to read the death cure i was really so to do that but you inspired to do it ❤️❤️
I can totally relate to quite a few of those! Nice video! Here’s my 3: 1. I have a bad tendency of reading the first book of a series, and then leaving the others in an ever-growing TBR pile. However, I do have a lot of completed series! 2. I have a bad habit of not reading Netgalley books right away... ^-^ 3. on long trips, I read in the car until I fall asleep. When I wake up, I read some more. Usually our long car trips are 8ish hours, so I can usually finish a book in that time :)
The Harry Potter and the last one are soooo me! The books did not get ruined whatsoever! And whenever people post things like "I wish he/she played this character not the actor/actress that got the part" I'm just sitting here like "well, I don't even imagine real people as the characters sooo"
I’m so glad I found this channel!! 1.) I refused to read Harry Potter when it first came out because I was a very hipster child and didn’t want to read them because they were so popular 😂 2.) When I did finally read Harry Potter I read all of them in one summer for the summer reading program at our library. I loved the books and ended up winning Cedar Point tickets, so it was overall a really great (and magical) experience! 3.) I have a stack of 4 books on my nightstand that I am currently reading 😅
I love spoilers. Seriously, I will hunt them out. I like when covers don't match because I think it makes a more interesting shelf. And I always read the last page before I read the first.
1. I have to read alongside an audiobook it helps me immerse myself into the story more 2. It has to be completely silent for me to read and concentrate 3. I enjoy having a snack and drink while reading (smart food white cheddar popcorn and crystal light water)
I am starting to read children's books too. The covers are always so pretty and catch my eye. It's still a book so why does it matter if you read a children's book? I don't see a problem with it. I also haven't finished The Infernal Devices. I only read Clockwork Angel. Although I don't remember anything so I have to re-read it. I also haven't read the last book of The Dark Artifices as well as Kingdom of Ashes. I also constantly update my reading status on GoodReads. I now have the habit of updating it after reading a chapter.
I can't stand when my mom says: "yeah, Liana is a big reader", person: "why don't you buy her an Ebook? It would be less expensive than buying all those books!" Me: *death stare* I want to feel the pages and smell it's fragance, okay?! Technology is taking over the world!".

Am I the only one who imagines basically every female character as... well... me?
+Vladimíra Dudová - I think a lot of readers do that. You are not alone.
I do that! I imagine I'm them and j am the actor in the movie they are going to make out of it! ( even though they probably won't make the film)
+Anythingthatsrandom i do that too^^ I once even had a dream where I was the main character in my fav movie...
+sauseperle same!!!
No matter who the character is if the chapter is from their pov I can see it through their eyes.
I really like book unhauls and negative reviews. That's when I know I can trust a booktuber.
Yep. For some reason, if a booktuber gives every book 5 stars, I'm like hmmmm.
+Evandro Roberto Yes! The unhaul videos and the unpopular opinions tag are my absolute favorites to watch!!

Yayyy, you did it! This was really interesting! Also, picture books are weirdly soothing. Like they're just such lovely simple stories and they often are so stunningly designed and illustrated, so no judgement here!
Always look forward to the book reviews!! Especially loved the Cassie Clare ones!
1) if there are two pages left in a chapter, (side by side), I would quickly glance at the end of the sentence of the second page to see what happens (just a glimpse!!)
2) I don't usually fancast the book characters either but for some reason i have a set of characters in my head that are already 'casted' for the main characters.
3) i like to read the book nude and without the cover. ;)
I'll start watching your review videos! I got spoiled once by someone else's "non-spoiler review" so I tend to stay away. I'll trust you.
I put up warnings when I talk spoilers. :)
Same
I don't finish series fast. People are always mad and think that I'm somehow letting the whole fandom down but actually I just want to be in the story's world longer and enjoy the possibilities before the end.
Also the organization of a series on a bookcase can be the death nell and heaven of book display.
The extras that publishers add to books, like little flourishes around the edges, and small pictures, textured covers are amazing and make the story that more real and tangible.
Love the reviews - honest and true to reading and readers everywhere - keep it up!

First off, I loved this tag! it looks like so much fun, and I guess one bookish fact about me was that I used to hate reading because when I was younger I had dyslexia pretty bad, but over the years, and with a ton of practice I hardly ever struggle reading (unless its like 3 in the morning and then I start reading up the page not down)!
Omg loved how you did the blooper thing
The Chaos walking series could possibly be my favorite series ever
I loved this video! A bookish fact about me is when I was younger I read all the time at school but was bullied for it. This put me off from reading in front of people for years but now I carry a book with me wherever I go and don't care what people think!
I understand how you feel about series! I hate starting them because it's almost like you have to commit to reading the next five in the series
Your reviews are the best!!! They're not too long, but they're still so informative!
Just wanted to let you know that I really love the way you do book reviews with the non-spoiler part first and then you tell us to leave when you get to the spoiler part. In addition to that though, if I see that it's a book I haven't read or have no interest in, I'll probably scroll past the video (not just you, I'd do it to anyone.)
I love children's picture books too! And yes I add them to my yearly reading goal on GR
Can relate to most of these. Especially with the start and finishing series.
never clicked a notification so fast.
I LOVE CANDY CRUSH!!!
PICTURE books are da best
jesseeeee mortal instruments!!!
airport bookstores are so overpriceddddd soooo
bookshelf problems 😂😂
no such thing as too many books
my favorite videos of yours are the tags. they are hilarious!!!
This was great! I am so glad that I am not the only one who loves airport librarys and doesnt fan cast!
You are literally becoming my favorite youtuber , not just booktuber but in general 😻😻😻😻😻
Awesome video Jesse! Recently I bought a bookshelf from Walmart and failed at building it.... :( I don't know how you and Kat do it! Anyway my bookish facts are:
1. I have a hard time writing negative reviews on books.
2. Once I am in a reading slump, I am depressed!
3. I have a habit of watching booktubers like you, right after I read a book so that I can hear everyone's thoughts!
Hi I just wanted you to know that I'm going to play this in a Reading class I'm teaching as an example of how to talk about yourself as a reader. Keep up the good work!
The reason I don't always watch your book reviews is because sometimes it's a book I plan to read soon and I don't like knowing anything about it! Keep making them though!!
"uSE YOUR IMAGINATION, KIDS!" senior quote
1) I've got 4 1st Editions of Harry Potter, from my late grandmother, and I got really excited thinking that they would be worth loads of money, I would never sell them but you get my drift, but then found out that its quite common in the later books to have 1st editions.
2) Katytastic was the first booktuber that I watched, but I must say now that Jessethereader is my favourite. I do love all book tubers though!
3) My favourite book of all time is I am the messenger by Marcus Zusak.
Thanks for the video Jesse! I re-watch them when I feel sad and you make me smile!
Keep up the good work!
Omg I cried at the end because Jesse was always complaining to me back in the day (lmao three months ago) how he didn’t have a set schedule and now my baby Jesse has grown and and I’m crying
I am sooo happy that you are a huge fan of the Ms. Peregrine's series as well! I always feel I'm the only one who loves that series to death ^^,
bookish facts about me:
1) I love to listen to the rain when i read! if it isn’t raining, then i put on a soundtrack of rain in the background
2) My favourite book is “The Art of Racing in the Rain” by Garth Stein and I’ve read it 9 times
3) My favourite harry potter movie is the chamber of secrets but my favourite book is the prisoner of azkaban
1) I love listening to rain as I read, preferably a storm
2) My favorite book is ... Jk... I don't have one. The top 4 are the HP books, the maximum ride series, the Violet Eden Chapters, and the Percy Jacksons. And like a million more.
3) My favorite HP movie is either chamber of secrets or order of the Phoenix, and favorite book is either prisoner of Azkaban or order of the Phoenix.
As you can see, I'm very indecisive
I can not believe I found only now! I mean your videos are awesome, even for me, who is trying to write stories. Love your energy. Thanks for being there. :)
The Candy crush-thing is so true, sometimes when I'm playing the game I can hear the audiobook I was listening to while playing that particular level, even though I'm not listening!
You are one of my favorite booktubers/youtubers I really love you as a person and your videos! 😊
I did the same thing with Harry! I started reading the books like 3 months before The Order of the Phoenix was out and I STILL LOVED THEM
I can't stand not finishing a book.
I've re-read The Chronicles of Narnia at least a dozen times.
I watched LoTR before reading the books-but then I did go read them and thoroughly enjoyed them!
The only that I won't regret this year is subscribing to your channel, u are just awesome 😻
How have I never heard of this tag?! OMG the bookshelf reorganization thing is so me
SPECIAL DETAILS ON BOOKS AND MAPS ARE GREAT
DUDE. Same with the fan casting. I rarely picture actors (unless they are explicitly mentioned in the book, which actually happened to me once recently) when I'm reading. Even writing. And it's not that I don't know any actors, because one of my weird talents is remembering actors' names and what movies they're in. Imagination for the win!
You're always so entertaining to watch ^.^ A few bookish facts about me:1) I don't get drawn into fandoms very easily, even though I love seeing others so passionate about them
2) it takes me an average of 2-3 hours to read 100 pages, depending on the density of the book3) I will write notes in my book and underline passages all day, but I take extreme care to keep new books in new condition on the outside :P
I love your bookshelf! I wish i had the same collection.
Reviews are some of my favorite videos to do, too and I love that you do so many on your channel. :)
I totally get you on the stress about adding new books to your shelves and constantly having to shift. I had to do this yesterday and yea...never satisfied. Never satisfied. Haha.
Maps make my heart happy too. I love that
Ahhh I love the bookstagram community as well! :)
Haha, I always have Goodreads open. Always! As for children's picture books, I have kids, so I get to read them all the time. They are usually not even there and I'll still be sitting there reading them out loud.
Agreed on that cassie clare spoilers!!!
I LOVE your videos! I'm Brazilian and all that I want is improve my English to read all your book suggestions! But I can't understand a lot of things right now, so I hope to get better sooner 😅😅
You're amazing!
Your John Green story is really funny. I'd probably be the exact same way, I'd probably be excessively crying too. He's just so awesome.
i listen to audiobooks before sleep and it will be the best sleep ever. i can't multitask between eating & reading and that sucks because i love doing both of them. busses and trains are my favorite places to read .-.
So many of these are me as well! Brilliant video Jesse, super fun as always! :)
The intro literally scared me as I was staring off to space!
I think these facts are very interesting. I also don't fan cast my characters either. And if you ever do an unhaul, I would personally love to see it because I like to know everyone's opinions on books before I read them
First bookish fact: i got a book signed by its author but it is towards a friend of her who is a philologist (professor) and then her frien signed it too saying it is now her turn to give it away to somebody so she gave it to me as a birthday present back to when I was nine years old. Secondly, all of the bookmarks I use are handmade. I actually have bookmarks that basically advertise other books cause they are from bookstores (I mean duhh) but I never ever use them. Only the ones I make. And the third bookish fact about me is that I can finish a book in a really short period of time but it takes me freakin ages to find the courage and start reading another book once I finish the last one.
1. Bookstores and libraries are safe places to me. I literary calm down even when I'm very stressed after I walk into one. It's like entering a fairy land.
2. I realized that I prefer middle-grade books to YA because they are often less childish (paradoxical as it may sound), they are not afraid to deal with big themes and they are often better crafted, more challenging and more entertaining than much YA and adult literature. Often the best books are labeled "for young and old readers alike".
3. I also love children picture books (or when there are pictures in books in general). When I manage to find a perfect blend of fine art and a text - it's like music to my eyes and soul.
Wonderful video, Jesse, thank you for making my day better
Coffee with coconut creamer is the BOMB!
I truly love your channel and your personality, don't give a crap about mean comments .
I love your channel Jesse! Ignore those haters, unhaul whatever books you want!!
I hardcore relate to so many of these. Book maps =
One of my favorite videos by you, Jesse! ☺️
I am obsessed with his bookshelf ❤
Jesse you're my favorite 😂❤️
The book I've read the most The Mark of Athena by Rick Riordan. (I have read it like 14 times+)
I see it behind him on the screen along with the first two books
AYE DEMIGOD WHATCHA DOING ON THE INTERNET??
Same with the lightning thief
That one was really goooooooood
Loved this video Jesse, love from England 😂✨
Fact 22 sammmeeeee #relatable and my cousins thought that i was phsyco soing that cause they almost finished the series when i started mine! Love ya you inspired me to read the death cure i was really so to do that but you inspired to do it ❤️❤️
The book I've read the most is probably The Fellowship of the Ring (20+ times) for some reason.I just love it so much
I can totally relate to quite a few of those! Nice video! Here’s my 3:
1. I have a bad tendency of reading the first book of a series, and then leaving the others in an ever-growing TBR pile. However, I do have a lot of completed series!
2. I have a bad habit of not reading Netgalley books right away... ^-^
3. on long trips, I read in the car until I fall asleep. When I wake up, I read some more. Usually our long car trips are 8ish hours, so I can usually finish a book in that time :)
The Harry Potter and the last one are soooo me! The books did not get ruined whatsoever! And whenever people post things like "I wish he/she played this character not the actor/actress that got the part" I'm just sitting here like "well, I don't even imagine real people as the characters sooo"
A great children's picture book is "I want my Hat Back." by Jon Klassen.
You should check it out.
YOU ARE REALLY AMAZING JESSE
finish TMI and TID it is so worth it it is awsome trust the whole fandom
I’m so glad I found this channel!!
1.) I refused to read Harry Potter when it first came out because I was a very hipster child and didn’t want to read them because they were so popular 😂
2.) When I did finally read Harry Potter I read all of them in one summer for the summer reading program at our library. I loved the books and ended up winning Cedar Point tickets, so it was overall a really great (and magical) experience!
3.) I have a stack of 4 books on my nightstand that I am currently reading 😅
I love spoilers. Seriously, I will hunt them out. I like when covers don't match because I think it makes a more interesting shelf. And I always read the last page before I read the first.
1. I have to read alongside an audiobook it helps me immerse myself into the story more
2. It has to be completely silent for me to read and concentrate
3. I enjoy having a snack and drink while reading (smart food white cheddar popcorn and crystal light water)
Completely agree with the audiobooks and candy crush!
I don't know why, but I find the look in your eyes really soothing.
Everyone secretly does
I am starting to read children's books too. The covers are always so pretty and catch my eye. It's still a book so why does it matter if you read a children's book? I don't see a problem with it. I also haven't finished The Infernal Devices. I only read Clockwork Angel. Although I don't remember anything so I have to re-read it. I also haven't read the last book of The Dark Artifices as well as Kingdom of Ashes. I also constantly update my reading status on GoodReads. I now have the habit of updating it after reading a chapter.
I LOOOOOOOVE when you show up ( sound ) and say "Hey Guy"!!!! It's sooooo funny!
Oh my god ! I just discovered your channel and I just love it so much ❤
I just found your channel and I love it! Like seriosuly where have I been my whole life
Jesse: people r so mean
True fans: *get the guns!* who is so dumb to hate on him?!
