this comment means so much to me. Thank you!!! I can't tell you how much I appreciate you acknowledging the amount of work. That makes it all worth it.

[@graceandcats2873]

Dude!!! The editing on this is FLAWLESS!! The way all of the booktubers finish each others sentences when describing the book 😭😭😭 it’s so satisfying!!

[@sarahteter6310]

This is amazing! The editing work that went into this to make these summaries practically seamless despite the necessary cuts and different angles is astounding! Thank you for all the work you very clearly lovingly put into this so that we could all appreciate the booktube community's favorites!

[@KatieColson]

AW THANK YOU, SARAH! Yes it was incredibly difficult but it was worth it to have you say it was seamless. I appreciate that so much

[@gabbyreads]

I love that Spy x Family made it so high on the list!!! It’s so deserving and so great 😍

[@gabbyreads]

I’m also surprised that Daisy Darker made it that high on the list but I’m happy about it because I loved it so much 😌

[@gabbyreads]

Can I just say the editing on this video is so incredible!!! The way you edited everyone talking about the books and the way it FLOWS!!!! Omg the editing is incredible Katie ❤

[@rosap.6467]

“…but also if you don’t like women or satan…why are you here? 🤨” -Jordaline SUBSCRIBED IMMEDIATELY, love her energy 😌 Katie I appreciate the amount of work you put into this!! The amount of times I closed KZbin to add to my wishlist 😅 Incredible video!

[@monkeyheadbonkers9303]

[@LochsLibrary]

[@KatieColson]

Aw, thank you so much! So glad I got to include you in this video. You're the one who convinced me to pick up Magnolia Parks!

[@LochsLibrary]

@@KatieColson ha can’t wait to hear your thoughts! if you hate it don’t feel bad bc it’s like 60/40 with my friends. 40% end up despising and the other 60% make it their entire personality 🫠💞😂

[@LochsLibrary]

@@KatieColson also this video is a work of art, seeing all the faces and their fave books was 🤌🏼✨ thank you for including me 🥹

[@thebestiebooksleeve]

the sense of pride i have for book lovers is unmatched. my heart is exploding.

[@KatieColson]

Ha, Rachel! I was astonished that People We Meet on Vacation didn't make it on the list. It did get mentioned 3 times by the 91 booktubers I narrowed it down to. So it was up there but just barely missed out

[@haileyhughes]

I LOOOOVE THIS VIDEO🥹 this feels like a big celebration of books & reading & gorgeous writing & ~the community~ & my heart is bursting!!!!!!💗 thank you for including me!!

[@KatieColson]

[@TAbs_00_]

The fact that you spent so much time on this is honestly a labor of love, and thank you! I followed so many booktubers I'd never heard of before. And you put in my favorite Jordaline moment of all time. 10/10 stars!

[@bby.kaylamarie]

Everyone needs to follow Jordaline her personality is unmatched!

[@katywall1898]

The editing work in this video is astounding. You are already one of my favorite Booktubers, but now I think you deserve an award. Booktube Emmys anyone?

[@messy678]

I really love the format of this video. I look so forward to Kayla’s video every year, and now I’m adding this one- I hope you do it again, Katie! It’s not the typical vlog style. I appreciate both of these formats! Really top tier vid, congratulations!

[@nikkisbooknook]

You’re an absolute angel for putting this together. Thank you SO much for including me! What an honor 🥹🫶🏼

[@CassandraRumley]

What a fun video idea! I can tell this took so much time and effort. This video was also really helpful - as I am returning to the reading for leisure and needed some good recommendations! Thanks again!

[@bignails2]

Omg I'm so grateful for this video! A year late but at least I made it lol I've been looking for more booktubers and this video was SO HELPFUL 🖤

[@Fiona_Co]

This is such a great video and also so inspiring to see so many different people making book content!! Like I might actually start a booktube channel now!!

[@KatieColson]

OMG YES! I didn't even think of this video sparking the flame for people to start their own channel. I love that so much. I wish you the best!

[@michaelafox6288]

📚 I never really leave comments on videos but this is a masterpiece! I loved hearing about everyone's favorites in one compilation and am always looking for more booktubers to subscribe to. This is great!!

I already follow so many booktubers mentioned, and found SO many others I did not hesitate to follow. loved this!

[@lavenderfog8886]

The commitment to this project is palpable, amazing work! 📚 I've only read one book on this list, and it was Slewfoot. Favorite book of 2022, one of my favorite books ever now. Really appreciated seeing The Book Leo and Jordaline here. The clips you chose for Jordaline especially were *chefs kiss*.

[@anon9069]

wow, this is so detailed and the way you cut clips of the booktubers describing the books is amazing!! props to you i added most of these to my tbr

[@eclipsepinks6840]

keep coming back to this video, praying / hoping / manifesting for a 2023 edition!

[@kristinagumbarevic4796]

This took some major work! I appreciate it so much. I really hope this is something that you do every year A.- because this was awesome B. - because I plan on using this as my TBR for the year. Thank you for being so entertaining.

[@ravenhairedreader]

this was such a cool video!! the amount of energy and time you put into this 😮‍💨 👏🏼

[@KatieColson]

Thank you so much!! So happy to be able to include you! Love your content

[@VesperVent]

This video is truly a work of art and love. I'm astounded by the work, the seamlessness and the way its all put together! I've gained a load of new books on my wishlist.... greeeat :') but honestly that outro was so eloquently put. I love the passion and grace you talk of this community, and you are a shining beacon of that! Thanks for this absolute gem of a video

[@KatieColson]

Oh thank you so so much! This comment makes all the work worth it to be honest. I appreciate it.

[@eimajhteb8288]

Happy to see thisstoryaintover !!! Sidenote I hated seven days in June omg

[@kendall-elaine]

This may be the most impressive work of editing I've ever seen.

[@henleyZ]

i feel like i have to comment just because this video was incredibly well done. i absolutely love hearing about book tube trends and hats off to you for putting in so much time to make this possible

[@KatieColson]

Aw thank you so so so much, Henley. This is exactly what I was hoping for. I’m so happy to know that you enjoyed it

[@bmoorerx]

this was truly a work of art.

[@KatieColson]

Aw, thank you so much, Bethany. That means a lot to me

[@bby.kaylamarie]

Personally love Jordaline, Gavin, Mique, Meg, Kayla, and Haley!! Definitely found some more to subscribe too! Thank you for all your hard work Queen it did not go unnoticed!💜📚(also I was wondering did I miss Olivia in the video maybe she put her best books out late)

[@kelleyiswriting]

Ahhhhhh HOW DID I MISS THIS MENTION AND THIS PREMIERE. THANK YOU so much for including me. I am shaking!!!!!!! And SCREAMING. ❤ thank you for this video I loved it so much

[@forlovingthewords]

Absolutely LOVED this video. I think I followed about half of the booktubers in this video and it was so fun to see this video edited into such a wonderful explanation of the favs of the year. This was great.

[@Pettifogger36]

Katie you have showed OUT with this video. It’s informative and entertaining. The work you put in is obvious. Well done!! I shared it immediately ❤

[@fiddleleaffiction]

I am only 2 minutes in and I am so impressed and blown away at the amount of time you put into this. Well done, and thank you!!! 👏🎉

[@KatieColson]

Aw, thank you so much!

[@graceandcats2873]

Omg I love Jordaline talking about slewfoot! Lol

[@Annieshauntedhauls]

Wasn’t it just perfect 🖤

[@somatoes4667]

I think the reason why Book Lovers over took Babel is because a lot of fantasy booktubers also read other genres (romance, gen fic etc) but very rarely do romance booktubers venture out of their comfort zone. I still love both haha

[@athenasbibliotheca8099]

I feel like my TBR just got bigger. 📚 The way you edited this video is amazing!!! I loved it so much. I will definitely be looking into some of the booktubers I don’t already watch from this video. 😊

[@KatieColson]

Thank you!!! Good, I'm glad to hear that. I definitely found some new people to subscribe to by making this video

[@maryhelen7588]

i'm watching this after watching your 2023 version and i just wanted to say - these videos are so brilliant and so wonderfully done. i'm so glad you do them. it feels like an important archive.

[@hollyc4624]

I’m thrilled to have found you as a Booktuber and appreciate the list of others. I follow several of those who you showcased but I’m always happy to find some new ones too. Thank you for all the hard work!

[@QuirkyGirl10]

Oh, I love that you did this, so a big THANK YOU for all your hard work compiling all the videos and vote counts! Glad to see Kate Pfeil, Jack Edwards, and Alexandra Roselyn providing their comments on their favorite reads for the year. Looking forward to checking out Syd Bookworrom :)

[@bekahbrooks9010]

I was glad to see BooksWithEmilyFox! I watched her beauty videos before I was into booktube and I watch all her videos 📚

[@beyzahostan5341]

This video is a masterpiece❤ Added so many of the books to ‘tbr’

[@briabynum6485]

I loved this so much. I was driving for 45 minutes to get my hair done and listening to the voices talk about these books was so beautiful. You are fantastic for doing this and taking the time to do this and highlighting booktubers that I am going to subscribe to. Some of these voices I took my eyes off the road because I wanted to see who they were. Thank you for this Katie!! I love you.

[@_amberwade]

📚KATIE!!! I LOVED this video!! Your editing was superb, and I loved hearing multiple voices reviewing each book! Some things that stood out to me - I love that you weren’t afraid to say you found Babel boring. I didn’t read that one, but I totally relate to finding certain books important but not really enjoying them. And secondly, I read both Book Lovers and Part of Your World and Part of Your World made it to my top 5 this year, while Book Lovers did not. Thanks for making this super impressive and I entertaining video! 📚

[@MusicalPepsi8]

The commitment to book rankings is Ah-ma-zing!

[@MoonlightBooks]

I've just came across the video now!! Thanks so much so including me 💗

[@bardsblond589]

Omg I just can’t believe you did this. Thank you so much!

[@sillysylsara]

Wow!!! Videos like this are a blessing to the booktube community. I just found so many people who I resonate with (including you)! Thank you so much for your hard work ❤️❤️ it shows, and does not go unnoticed

[@desireeambermoore621]

Im so glad to hear your thoughts on these because we both dont love romance and cozy things so I dont feel as bad when I dont want to read Legends and Lattes etc.

[@robyn8221]

Wow!!! What a great video. I have a lot of these on my TBR shelf already. Thank you for all of your hard work. 🎉 so glad to see my fav booktubers here: Lala, Emily and Jack

[@amy_harboredinpages8272]

Thank you for all the hours of compiling the research and creating this list ❤️ I'm in awe!

[@Jordan_elaine]

“I clearly don’t have a life but I hope you enjoy it” 😂😂 I felt that!

[@chloewilson7403]

Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into this video I absolutely loved watching from start to finish! Also thank you for showing smaller booktubers, I love subscribing to new people ❤️❤️❤️

[@KatieColson]

Of course! Thank you so much. Glad you found some new people. I surely did

[@kathrynsmith141]

This video is honestly an incredible feat. You are AMAZING Katie! I loved watching this! It made me emotional hearing people so impacted by so many books 📚

[@JordalineReads]

KATIE! this is crazy! the amount of work ✨️you're literally a beacon of light in this community 🤎 thanks for including me bb!

[@KatieColson]

🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

[@shelbyanderson3304]

This turned out so well, Katie!! I was stoked to see my faves (and who I’ve been wanting to YT stalk) Meg, Gavin, Gabby, and Kayla. And I was kind of shocked about all the (what I assume to be) literary or contemporary fiction. Damn.

[@Anmirx3]

that fact that I just bought the #1 book today before watching this video 😅. Can’t wait to read it. Also thank you for the time you put into this video. You’re amazing.

[@readbyamity5440]

Not Katie showing me another 44!!! New booktubers to subscribe to! ICON Thank you so much for putting in this mammoth effort, I cannot believe how many hours you spent editing! This video is everything!

[@briannacarsen5513]

You are a hero and a national treasure for putting this video together. Thank you for even calling out at the beginning of the video how much time and effort it took because this was an incredible feat (the planning/research for this video alone, not to mention the editing WOW) I love how you included such a variety of booktubers because you have introduced me to so many new ones. I love that this video was a pulse on popular books across all of Booktube rather than one individual's opinions on *their* best books. I appreciate too though that you included your own thoughts on the books, even and especially when, you disagreed. Thank you thank you thank you for this video. I am begging please do another one next year!

[@katiedaley2960]

so glad my class got canceled so i could watch the premiere!! there were so many surprises and i’ve added a ton of books to my tbr 📚

[@KatieColson]

It's kismet, Katie! Also, hey name twin!

[@sachi8745]

Just came from the live, rewatching this masterpiece

[@Meow-Meow501]

I already follow Cari Can Read, and now you. But I saw Jordaline Reads, and said gotta follow that gal. This was a really comprehensive project, thanks!

[@TheShimmeringCrystal]

Katie this was edited so well! This was just unique and amazing of you to bring all these book-tubers together.

[@ReadingWryly]

Great video! You found a way to reinvent Lala's end of the year video and put your own spin on it. PROPS!

[@lanene93]

I just want to say THANK YOU FOR THIS!

[@faiththayer7652]

KZbin Rewind who? What a treasure for the book community❤

[@AlliyScott]

omg the WORK that went into this! amazing 👏

[@KatieColson]

Aw thank you so much! So happy to include you!

[@JessicaLynn10]

💜💜💜you might end up like doing this video every year!! Wow this was so much more than I expected! Thank you for your hard work katie!! 💜💜💜📚

[@KatieColson]

Thank you so much, Jessica. I just might do this every year. Hopefully I worked out a lot of complications this year and next year it wouldn't take AS much time 🤞

[@_ashleylh]

I found you by this video and I must say I HIGHLY RESPECT what you have done here! 📚

[@kenzienoelle124]

Katie what the heck this is AMAZING!!! It’s like KZbin Rewind but it’s for booktube and it’s actually good😁🤩🤩

[@KatieColson]

Omg, that's what I should have called it!!! Thank you!

[@nicolecollins6650]

This was the best video I've ever seen on book tube the work you put in is just insane it's literally perfect. Loved it so much not only do we get so many best books of the year we get a summary too slay queen you killed this!!!

[@DeathByTBR30]

Watching this the end of 2023! Hoping to see a video like this in 2024 for best 2023 books. This has been my favorite video I’ve ever watched on bookTube, seeing the mashups made this so cool!!

[@KatieColson]

Oh wow thank you so much. I saved this comment to my phone cause it means so much to me. I am absolutely planning on doing another one! Hopefully it will come out in January

[@kaortega1120]

This video was amazing! I have been subscribed to so many of these BookTubers: Noelle, Syd, Lindsey, Gabby, Chantel, Emily, BooksLikeWhoa(Maura) & BooksandLala for many years now. Love them all. I am interested in checking out so many other channels on this list. Thank you again & again - Fantastic Video!

[@myaadams8284]

I’m so happy that with your platform you used it to pull up others who maybe don’t have the hype the or the viewership and gave them time in your own video and you weren’t the star, they were. Like you truly are a god sent!!!

[@Maritinylibrary]

This video is the reason why I love BookTube. It feels like a bunch of friends talking to each other and I love it. Favorite video of 2023!!!! 📚💕💕

[@scubacat22]

Kudos for the amount of videos you watched, the exposure you're giving to some less well known creators, and the diversity of the people you spotlighted. I'm going to check out several new channels, although honestly I already subscribe to so many that I can't keep up. lol

[@hannahyaxley8122]

Wow thank you for taking the time to do this ❤

[@kaytlinhenderson9206]

Incredible. A masterpiece. And thank you for telling how much time it took for you to edit because this was so much hard work and I want to appreciate it fully!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
