Hello friends! Today, we finally beat the procrastination monster and organize my bookshelves -- I'm super happy with how they turned out and I hope you enjoy me ranting about books & bookish collections I'd like to complete!

I can't believe you're recording on your phone, the quality is honestly so good!

[@fictionalmusings4676]

[@spookygamergirl]

I feel like a lot more people record on their phones than we know!

[@malintries]

[@jaynatanna5875]

When the Paperback fell and it said on captions "sound of paperback betraying Joels trust by falling on his macbook." 😂

[@lauragouveia4526]

I just want him to get the love and hype he deserves so he can buy every freaking expensive book he wants to... And a camera ahah

[@fictionalfates]

sakljdajaiof thank you 🥺

[@dashacastillo1377]

"i'm basically a ho for organization" ,, an organiza-ho, if you will (also, love ur aesthetic w ur thumbnails and social media plugs at the beginning of the video!)

[@fictionalfates]

okay this is definitely my new namebadge Joel Prince of Stories & Scion of the Sun Self-confessed organiza-ho

[@radiosilence3657]

The fact that I just reorganized my bookshelf today too, we love a mind reading king! The shelves look beautiful, you did a great job! Keep up the good work king, your videos have become such a safe space for me. Love ya! ❤️✌️ 🔪🔪🗡️🗡️⚔️⚔️ (I watched till the end, I ain't a fake fan)

13:44 the book on top of the pile gradually starts to slip away and it stressed me out lmao

[@supreethadevarakonda7480]

Oh shit! How did you notice that?? And how did he NOT notice it 😂😂😂

[@cheyennemaya5299]

Me with anxiety was just starting at it like 👁👄👁 BZHSHSJSH nOoo

[@yetus3628]

why did you point it out 😭

[@maha9073]

You should definitely watch Anne With An E!! I’ve cried more times than I can count watching it. It’s such a beautiful show and it pains me every day that it ended up getting cancelled. P.S. I just found your channel and I love it 🗡

[@sopor9460]

I am so happy to hear that you enjoy Truthwitch, I feel like it doesn't receive enough love, big booktubers don't seem to mention the series at all.

[@fictionalfates]

I haven't seen it mentioned much either! It's definitely one that I'm hoping to pick back up soon-ish, once I get the new edition boxed set!

[@aislynnclav]

AHHH I LOVE THESE KIND OF VIDEOS and i could not stop staring at the poppy war in the intro 👁👄👁

[@fictionalfates]

eiofjeafopijaefoj of course 😂😂

[@maitlandjohnson85]

[@rileyherbert4462]

Watch me reorganize my own shelves because Joel did. 👀

[@fictionalfates]

[@kaylaqueen6640]

That’s gonna be me tomorrow! ❤️

[@zoey398]

a year later and i absolutely need to 💀 i move upstairs in summer and i need new furniture (desk, if there's shelves under it E V E N B E T T E R) because my desk is too small and my nightstand is falling apart and i need more shelves for my books. currently have like a whole series and like 9 books not in shelves rn (might be more?) anyway i just got circe and the midnight library + my own copy of the giving tree

[@-serfi-8621]

I love organaizing by books by colour, so basic but i love the rainbow color it creates

[@mabfab]

Joel: grab a beverage of your choosing Me: You don’t have to tell me twice * grabs iced coffee and returns to revel in organization like the Virgo I am*

[@jim1527]

honestly even just the thumbnail gave me such good vibes I just clicked and liked. Instant seratonin. U are amazing

[@camilaschuller182]

I love how chill this is lmao! Like I feel like we are on FaceTime!

[@evildr3ad827]

been having the worst week so this was really nice to watch, thankyou for giving my anxiety a little break and for making such good stuff

[@amran9203]

I never knew I would love a bookish channel. I love this channel🥺❤️

[@justateacher6156]

This was the perfect length for me to drink my midday coffee 🥺 also, this has inspired me to reorganize the shelves in my office so thank you 💖

[@TheAZElele]

Ah, my favorite video type: organization! I’m a big fan of watching people clean/declutter/organize stuff. Also ⚔️

[@vittorigoli1098]

I looove the visuals and drawings! So cute💕

[@mel5071]

perfect timing! just when I started to organize my shelves!

[@ZedgirlAwesome]

I’ve been waiting for this for so long! Can’t wait 😊

[@fictionalfates]

ahh i hope you enjoyed!

[@RaetheSaint]

I love the way you talked about your system for this and some of your favorite reads. All your books are so beautiful 😭 this video makes me want to reorganize my shelves and I honestly might just go do that now ⚔️

[@jolintoh]

just saying i literally love the way you organise the descriptions of your videos. they're very concise and informative. thank you for your service

[@AbsurdLasagna]

This is the perfect kind of bookshelf organization! I love that you talked a bit about your favorite books/copies. And books that you want to get in the future. It really felt like simply hanging out with a friend. :)

[@jasminehewitt793]

So you’re a vibe and i love your channel ✨✨

[@MsBlulucky]

I love the way your shelf looks, but I could never 😂 Like putting all my favourites together would pull series apart, just like rainbow shelves would. And I'm sure I just wouldn't find the books I'm looking for anymore, therefore I'll stick with the good old alphabet 😂⚔

[@ohhmelodyy]

you are putting out such high quality content! ⚔️ i love it please do a video on your notion setup! i’m recently obsessed too and love seeing everyone’s pages

[@caleb1722]

💗Finally 💗I have found someone as serious about book organization as i am 🥺

[@alliewithbooks]

Thank you so much for shouting me out!! You're so very kind 😊 also ⚔

[@Ezzydesu]

I am about to reorganise my shelves and this video really helped me with some inspiration on what I am gonna do with it. Love it! 🗡

[@megreads9]

I actually have the big problem of my life as an avid reader, I read all genres so I decided to set a plan first then to work on it, i've started organizing my bookshelves as categories, it's so easy to find the book you want to read. For example, I put a shelf for Adults, adventures, Arts, and so on until I find my little library well organized. Try this and you will see a big difference. Beleive me.

[@ofwavesandpages]

i always struggle so much with bookshelf organization because i'm constantly changing my books and never know what exactly i wanna do with them hahaha your bookshelves look great!!

[@niharikapasi7160]

🔪 to see your organized shelf!

[@BrittanyandBooks]

Anne of green gables is one of my faves!! I hope you love it xx

[@christinelareads]

Lovely video, Joel! Your videos are always so calming and wonderful, this totally just made my day (also, organization videos are the best, so this was a total treat!) 🗡

[@emmibobable]

Yes Goblin Market was a levels for me 😄 kinda loved it as it didn’t have much to compare to 😅

[@romalibra_books]

I watch with the subtitles in the shower and I had so much fun with the added subtitles hahaha
