Honestly, I love your long vlogs. They’re so cozy and I just enjoy listening to you talk. I’ll usually watch them over the course of a day or two, depending on how much free time I have. But I love sitting down to watch the vlog and color. It’s THE most relaxing thing. You could make a vlog 4 times as long and I would totally watch it. I’m actually going to start rewatching some once I’m caught up.

[@oliviareadsalatte]

[@ashleeplansalot3374]

I think you should go with whatever length occurs naturally. If one week your vlog turns out to be an hour because that what life brings then cool and if the next week the vlog turns out to be 3 hours because that is how it naturally goes then amazing! Lol I love all your content so either way I am happy with it.

[@landscapesofink]

I love the long vlogs but they're also intimidating sometimes. I'm someone that needs to watch almost every video that my subbers put out, and seeing a 2hr video (1hr on 2x speed) makes me feel super unproductive when I'm behind on videos and know I need to watch x amount haha. But that's just me. I've loved getting to see your life and get to know you (sounds weird but eh) and it's such a refreshing thing on my feed

[@AllyEmReads]

Oooooooh you'll like what I learned the other day! The library checkouts read the magnet they put in the books, right? Well they can read them THROUGH A STACK! So you don't technically have to check out one book at a time, you can just slide the whole stack onto the magnet and it'll read all of them!

[@oliviareadsalatte]

I know, I like to do it individually so I can get more of a b-roll kind of shot. It's so cool they can do this though!

[@fileanavailable]

I love these long vlogs! Also, so glad you’re watching Books with Brittany and shouted her out. Love her channel 🥹

[@oliviareadsalatte]

Your current outra song is so much *your* song in my brain that if I watch someone else's BookTube channel, and they use it for b-roll in a vlog, I think, "Hey! That's Olivia's song! Copy cat..." 🤪

[@oliviareadsalatte]

Hahahahah I’ve heard it in big lifestyle influencers vlogs and been so confused for just half a second because I’m so used to hearing it while editing 🤣

[@LindsNW05]

I realized that you and I are a lot alike in the whole library/books I own debacle. I am a mood reader and I end up reading more from the library than I do my own books, but I feel guilty reading my own books when I have library holds. I feel like I can't read my own books until I read the library ones, because people are waiting on those and it's just rude to make them wait for a book they REALLY want to read, when I'm just kinda interested in it. I don't know why I gravitate more towards library books than I do my own books, God knows I have enough of them to choose from, but I'm just never in the mood for them at that time. My brain is so much fun! 😂😂😂 I said it before and I'll say it again, I LOVE the long vlogs, it feels like I'm with a friend just having a day with them.

[@oliviareadsalatte]
