You have better self control then me my physical tbr is over 100 I'm only just now starting to make progress on books I've had for around 10 years

I made my goal of 20 books which was my goal last year and i barely made it this year i made it and have extended it by 10 everytime i make it so im up to 40 now

Thank you, i think a lot of people need to hear this or maybe just need this reminder. We all read, doesn't matter how much generally😊❤️ its a lot of pressure nowadays for everything!!

randomly saw this video on my nf, and now im subscribed! love your vids🥰🤍

the coolest video ever 🫶🏻

cute video!!!

I used to keep all my books in pristine condition but i gradually started annotating starting with underlining the lines that I liked and now i highlight, write in the margins and tab my books too. I love doing it so much. Like you said, I want my books to reflect me and my journey as a reader. I also find it very nice when I lend someone my books and they can read all of my annotations, it feels so nice!! also Hiii!!! I love your instagram (that's how i found you here) and I am also thinking of starting a BookTube channel, LET'S BE BESTIES!!!!!

This is madness. Cut the lounge music and bring your UFO back down to terra firma. Unless you're the ghost of Robinson Jeffers and have literary immortality in your future, buy a reading copy to supplement your collector's copy. With thrift stores abounding there is no excuse not to have 3 or 4 editions of every book you like.

Love this concept so much! And so interesting to see the similarities between our reading too. Definitely tempted to do this as a personal project/scrapbook type thing 🤩

umm absolutely worth the wait!! this is such a cool concept! I wanna sit right down and reflect on my own life in books 📚😍 TFIOS was very impactful for me too 🥹 and the self help book hatred is honestly so real hahah

Tay this video is so clever, well done! 👏 I also freakin love that you threw shade at F. Scott... 👀 Plagiarizing your wife aint it boo! 😒 Currently reading Boulder from your recommendation and wowwww I am savoring it. It's so poetic and reflective! ❤

This was so fun and such a good idea! You’ve got me thinking about my life in books now too ☺️📚

So cute! Love this idea 🫶🏼

I mark my nonfiction. They're books I want to keep and go back to, but with my fiction books, I just want to read them for fun and if I don't like them, I give them away. Now, it may be different if I ever get into older classic books. As for 'damaging' my books, if I buy it new, I tend to want to keep it as new as possible, but if I buy them 2nd hand, I love a somewhat damaged book as long as they aren't underlined, highlighted or massively written on.

Annotate the text books! So you can't sell them back People be evil i like the concept of annotating books but i definitely haven't gotten to wear i can convince myself to do it plus i borrow from the library a ton so its not natural for me but i think if i was going to it'd have to be a second copy i had accidentally bought a second copy of the night circus and was considering keeping it to annotate cause i like my normal hardcover of it same with a little princess which i finally read and i have a meh copy of it so i think im gonna get a b&n classics version and annotate my old copy As far as deep works being annotated my copy of jane eyre is partially annotated and i love it cause it helped explain some of the confusing parts in the book lol However i will tab a book to death i didn't have any tabs for a book i was reading so i had to dog ear and my friend about fainted like why do you think i buy tabs in bulk long live the tabbies Subscribed btw this was a good wholesome video

Always good to set boundaries! Love that for you xx thank you for sharing the update, helps me feel way less guilty for changing my own schedule to post once a week instead of trying to keep up with twice a week posts 😭 bi-weekly isn’t a bad idea either, might be able to balance things better that way ahhh. Anyways ramblingg, but thank you again, have found your content so inspiring while trying to face my book-consumption habits. You’re like who I was back in 2019 before covid and booktube gave me so much anxiety and pressure and I ended up buying way too many books, so thank you for reminding me of my past self and that I can get back to her and my values before anxiety took control of the wheel 🥹❤️

Woohoo 🫶 we can’t wait!

Yesss I love how you mentioned it make it feel like YOUR book collection! I feel like Annotating totally helps personalize and make my connection to a book stronger!

☕️ these are such good recs!! The Bell Jar is phenomenal, I second that one

Stop, I’ve been eyeing up Upstream by Mary Oliver so I guess I’ll just have to add Dream Work to that!

What a haul! 📖 Total sisterhood of the travelling pants vibes with those perfectly fitting jeans without a try-on in store! 🙌 The cut of that accordion style blouse is so cool! Would look so dope and 70s-esque with flared pants!

These are fantastic! 👏

📖Loved this video!

ahhh. so exciting. i came from ur instagram and im so happy to be here

Im so glad I found this video because ive been in this situation for a while! I use to have a mini shop where i sold my art, but stopped because i couldnt bring myself to love it anymore. I realized it was because i cared so much more about how people would like it vs how I liked it. I'm trying to get back to creating, and I'm trying to do that with new methods such as making zines and paying omage to little me and what she would've KILLED for to make, such as felt keychains and little dollhouses. I hope everyone here vets back to creating and continues to do so and thank you for making this video. You seem really really cool.
