We're nosy. I mean, it's like perusing a bookstore or library. But it's a privately owned library. =) but isn't it helping clean your shelves and organize the books? The Cricket on the Hearth? I wonder if I have that story in the collected short story book I have of Dickens. See, this is why we're nosy. I mean, why we like seeing other people's books. Some of those nonfiction books sound interesting.

Some great books and great covers there. Best wishes Gavin.

I bought World in Peril a few weeks ago, because I recognised Charles Chilton from Journey into Space. However, I didn't discover until I got home it was a novelisation of an episode of Journey into Space.

Seems Golden Sunlands has complaints that there is no ending, that it had to have a sequel that never happened. A very Jabba's sail barge cover. You are the second person who has talked of this book this week. Donaldson also has a short story collection called Reave The Just and Other Tales which is quite good.

Happy !00🎉 Logan's World now that was a fantastic find. The Logan books are really difficult to find anywhere, even though I've read them I'm still after copies, there are some ebook versions flying around. Love the cover on the Gibson Book

Fabulous line. Nicely done!!!!!!

I haven't read a ton of Aiken's work, but I've very much enjoyed what I've read, particularly THE PEOPLE IN THE CASTLE and THE SERIAL GARDEN: THE COMPLETE ARMITAGE FAMILY STORIES.

So if you go with Steve Donohue, does that mean you won't need to join the Proust Party in 2025?

Wishing you congratulations on reaching your goals for Garbaugust. You pointed out your bingo card, but did you work the other dimensions as well? You and Roy look like you killed yourselves over this past month! And every time I went to check a CriminOly video it had nothing to do with Garbaugust! I think he owes you. . . A beer? Well *something*.

Heyyy buddy ! Thanks so much for doing our tag and thanks for the mention! WOW what a nice compliment- you rock. “Which booktuber bud broke your arms?” Lmao haha I think I like the rewrite better. 😂😂 and that outro!!! 😂😂😂😂

Go shake your ears...

Very enjoyable video, Gavin - very engaging digressions.

Thanks for the very kind words! Those are an alarming set of scenarios, full of prison, peril and prestidigitation! I'd be most reluctant to do the final one, though, because I'd be robbing myself of the first-hand emotional pleasure that comes from reading. I'd rather not experience books though someone else's eyes. Being stuck on a deserted island with you and Michael and all our books sounds intriguing, as long as it's in the Seychelles rather than the Faroe Islands. 😂

Thank you for taking us into town. That one space looked pretty narrow. Thank you for tagging us. I think we have two other tags to catch up on and one in the editing "room." I'll need to write some of my answers/experiences, so I don't leave anything out. =) Again, thank you for the jaunt 'bout town. 🤗

Well done! 💫 It was great fun following GarbAugust. It seems like you really allowed yourself a good variety of reads and watches. The Mushroom Press video is fantastic, too. I’ve learned so much. Thank you- as always!

Haha. Loved this. Great answers. You’re the first person to tag my as the crime solver rather than the thief. I reckon you, me and Pat would make a great team 😂

I'm on Pat's island and in your jail, I guess the jail is on the island. Thanks for the tag, this is a really fun one.

Oh this was such fun! You and Debs and I solving a mystery together! Now that would be delightful! Loved your answers to this tag, Gavin. You've assembled a wonderful cast of characters here. (By the way, I did know that Book Buds had tagged you. I was just tagging you as well for the record. It doesn't feel like I've done a tag properly if I don't tag you too. 😊)

*Waves towel*

Holy Smokes I’d say you’re doing better than okay. You’ve done awesome, Gavin! I really like your _The Mushroom Jungle_ book. I’m behind on your videos, but catching up slowly.

huh, sorta an interesting, guy.. to be writer, author of so many books and a lead singer 🎈Happy Birthday

Congrats on 100 videos. Your surprise at finding yourself making a haul video is - ahem - what I think we've all found surprising about being on Booktube as presenters. Wouldn't it be great if someone could invent a book dimension portal, so we could have a separate, invisible bookroom to take all our extra books?!

Congrats on 100 videos! Fun book haul!

Yay for reading "No bed for Bacon"! Don't miss reading the introduction and realising the background of the times to its writing, adds to your appreciation. It was written as WW2 was still raging at a time of great uncertainty. And many years before Tom Stoppard's "Shakespeare in Love" which is very similar. Brilliant video vlog, making the most of access to London - bravo!

Oh the number of times I have bought books that are already on my shelves 🙈. Nice book haul. Many congratulations on your first Star Trek novel - I read my first ones this year. And congratulations on making a century. Love your videos 😊

Congratulations, Gavin - what an achievement. Brilliant you!

Enjoyed this video! And thanks for the tag! How do you manage to record videos, watch booktube, respond to comments, and still get your reading in? I know that I have some time-wasting habits I need to adjust in order to keep up, but I’m interested in what works for you.

100th video, great cheap finds, plus -- the piece de resistance -- a bacon sandwich! Who could ask for anything more?

Great responses. I share your fondness for Richard III. But I should mention that King John didn't die from bingeing on eels. That was Henry I. John died from dysentery. Ever since I learned that several of my French ancestors died at Agincourt, I've been a little ambivalent about Henry V...

Congratulations on 100 videos. Nice Star Trek find, hope you enjoy.😊

Good cricket score. As they say in cricket. Take a fresh guard and go for a big one! Best wishes Gavin.

CONGRATS on your 100th video! X100

Oh my god!!! Gavin you found Logan’s World!!! I’ve been looking for that for years! It’s so expensive on eBay!! Amazing! Lots of other interesting things there too.

Lin Carter is probably the name I hear the most in SF that I've never read, that guy must have been a workaholic. Farmer is another one I need to check out. The only hint of organisation I have is I put most of my penguins together, and all of my SF masterworks. Otherwise I just try to put similar sized things together.

ShakeTember! Awesome. That's too cool seeing all that. Sadly I have no Shakespeare books. Thank you for sharing this with us. -James

I was going to go to the globe last year (I've never been) but never got time in the end. Muppets Hamlet would be amazing. Glad to see this tag making the rounds again.

Love the way you make the bingo board work for you 😂. Great trashy reading. I also loved Dr Fu Manchu. Will definitely be reading more of those. Your GarbAugust videos have been fab 😊. And you’re so right about my Kindle algorithm 😂😂

They had a bunch of his books at my hometown library. After reading a few random pages of his works, I renamed him Allen Dreary. His book with the best title lost me with the first sentence. Dreary describes the protagonist as 'the Casanova of the space program.' Really!?! Tbe book's title was The Throne of Saturn.

Love it 😂

This is going to be such a fun month!😂

Ah, a Muppet glory version of Shakespeare - pure genius! Yes, that speech from Henry V is so moving - astounding! Kenneth Branagh's performance of that part in his film version of the play is unforgettable, I just get swept along with all that patriotic fervour. I love it! Very engaging video - thank you.

"Bull's pizzle" was a nice touch...

Johnny Weismuller sends his best wishes...

I would love to see a Muppets Hamlet! That’s absolutely brilliant! 😂😂😂. Love that piece from Henry V. A good book on King John I read a while ago is 1215; The Year of the Magna Carta (think that’s the title.) I am just reading Richard III now for the first time.

Gavin: This was delightful! Your opening was brilliant! I am so envious that you are so close to the Globe Theatre! Your answers to each of these questions were just so thoughtful. Bravo, my friend!

Lots of trash but no rubbish. Best wishes Gavin.

Bestest Birthday 🎈 Edgar Rice Burroughs

Delightful!
