I have been watching Booktube for years but never thought it would be something I would try! I am an introvert, hate public speaking, and have never spoken to a camera. It is definitely awkward, and I think you can see that in my first two videos, but I thought I would just go for it. I wanted to try something new and it seemed like the next natural step!
I have no intentions on leaving this blog- it will always been my number one creative outlet, but it has been refreshing to be creative in a new way! I will link to my YouTube channel at the bottom of my posts, but I don’t want my blog to simply became a way to advertise my channel, so I will be cognizant of that!
Also, I want to put together a post where I share bloggers who also have Booktube channels, so if that is you please let me know in the comments! I would love to share your blog and your channel and to watch your videos!
Anyways here is a link to my channel…
I recorded a video sharing all the books on my TBR cart, so I will be editing that and posting it soon! Don’t worry, I am also writing a blog post about it and will be taking pictures.
Thank you for your continued support. I appreciate you all so much!

You look and seem really confident in your video! A lot of admiration for you there as I definitely couldn’t do it 🙂

I’m nervous/excited for you to watch!
Ah congrats, so exciting 🙂
Thank you!
This is amazing! I totally get where you’re coming from about staring and talking at a camera but I’m happy you’re trying this 😊

Thank you so much!
This is AWESOME 🤩 I am definitely subscribing 😍😍
Exciting! Love watching booktube! I’ll check it out 😀
Thank you!! 😊
Good luck with your new endeavor. I’ve watched your video and have subscribed.
Ah thank you so much. Means a lot!
You’re very welcome!!
That’s really great. I don’t watch booktube that much. I used to but these days book blog and social media takes so much of time along with family life that I only watch booktube once a week. I like that subtitle thing in your video. I don’t see that on other few booktubes I watched before. I will start watching booktubes more now and specially yours.
Thank you so much! It does take some time to do that subtitles but I’m going to do my best to stick with it because I think it’s important. So happy you enjoyed it!
Yes and it also make yours different.
How fun! And challenging and brave!!!!! Well done! 🙌
Thank you Carol! 😊
I just subscribed!!! I’ll watch soon as my son has just hijacked my you tube to watch his gaming rubbish!!!!
Ahhh yay! Those gaming channels are so popular!
They really are! Some of them are great but the language on others is atrocious! My son knows most swear words (thanks to school!) but I tell him he cant watch stuff with them in!
Right?! My brother was really into video games growing up and I can not believe how people talk to each other over those headsets!
I would never dream of saying something of the stuff they do. Its like they have no filter. My parents would’ve killed me!!!
Congratulations and good luck!! I tried the whole YouTube thing and it didn’t work well for me.
Thank you! I’m hoping it’s something I stick with but we will see!
Woohoo! 👏🏼👏🏼 Congrats on making a YouTube video! I’m really excited to watch!! 😊
Ahh you’re the best. Thanks for all the support!! 😊
You’re very welcome!! 😊
I enjoyed them 🙂 Honestly if I had just stumbled over your channel (and obviously the content of the first) I wouldn’t have pegged you for newbie! Good luck with it!
That is so nice. Thank you Gemma! 😊
Oh cool! I’ll check out your video and follow along.
I’ve considered starting a booktube channel in the past, but it certainly seems intimidating so great on you jumping in and doing it!
I’ve been thinking about it for ages and just finally said it’s now or never!
That’s so awesome! Good for you 🙂 I have a (non book related) Youtube channel I made to give myself an excuse to try to teach myself video editing and to get over my shyness too. Talking to a camera feels so awkward though! I can’t wait to go check out your videos!
Right?! I have to get used to it and remember to look in the lense.
Awesome! I spend way more hours on Booktube then I should. Excited to add you my subscriptions 🎉
I spend so much time watching too. Thank you so much Lori!
Oh, my gosh, I can’t even look at you cause your hair is SO thick and gorgeous!!!! 🙁
Also, you’re really NOT that awkward on camera! I love that your starting a Booktube channel! Very exciting!
Ahhh thank you! That’s so nice 😊
This is amazing, congrats on doing this!! I’ll definitely watch the video haha!
Ah Kaya! That means so much. Thank you!
Congrats! Just watched your video and it was great. Very personal, informative, and you looked comfortable ( although you ,Ishtar not have been). Looking forward to future videos.
Aw thank you so much! That means a lot to me because I felt so nervous!
Good luck to your new endeavour 🌼
Thank you!
That was really awesome! What is booktube? I got kind of lost around the question what kind of books you read? That’s only because I’m not a native English speaker. Everything else was crystal clear!
Thank you! Booktube is the name for people who make YouTube videos just about books. It’s awesome!
Thank you for the prompt response! Could you recomend a book please? I’d like to complete the 1 per month challenge this year. Always some kind of excuse keeps me from doing it right.
I’d love to! Do you have any favourite books? That way I can try and choose a book I think you will like!
How about an american thriller?
Don’t Look for Me by Wendy Walker. It was my favourite thriller of last year and I have recommended it to so many people!
Thank you so much! I look forward to watching more of your videos and reading your blog posts!!
Thank you! Means a lot!
I’m excited to watch!
Thank you Garrett!!
Best of luck🖤
Thank you!
Best of luck with your booktube!
Thank you!
Thank you for your post. I have now learnt what a Booktube is. I did not it existed. I will looking into it. Thank you and I wish you all the best for your channel.
Awesome! There is some great content on Booktube! So glad I could be the one to introduce it to you.
Thanks so much!
I started one too. You seem a natural.
Aw that means a lot to me! Thank you!
