hi new subscriber here. i’m Lohan from brazil, pronouns they/them, i’m a med student and as for this year i got over my phobia of books (literally, my parents used reading as a punishment and i hadn’t read a book for enjoyment since my father died), i am currently almost at my 100th mark of the year, which started mid february so i’m quite excited for the rest of the year, i listen to some dark academia/gothic books and FUCKING FELL IN LOVE and that’s how i arrived at your channel. which i also fell in love because how could i not, everything about it is perfect: your voice, your energy, everything calms me down to a place of peace and content (really). maybe it’s kinda sad, but i’m at the hospital constantly, so i rarely can visit my family anymore at a fear of being a vector of covid, so my life have being patients, studying, reading and watching youtube (i have been binging your channel, not gonna lie). i also have a box on your way with some goodie goods. ok bye

When Marnie Was There, is one that isn't talked about as much as some of the other Ghibili movies, but it literally made me and my partner cry sm. It was wholesome, and beautiful, and magical. It is based on a children's book, you might want to read. 🙂

You are spoiling us with all of your amazing videos! Also, I’m here to hell into the void to ask for an updated bookshelf tour! Des gros bises de la france xx

[@soirea384]

hi, I'm a new subscriber and I felt encouraged to write a little introduction, so here we go: I'm Sophie (she/her), I will be 22 years old in 3 days and I'm from Germany. I'm currently studying education and history and I always turn to booktube in order to find the inspiration to keep reading after a long day of reading scientific essays and stuff. I love the atmosphere you create in your videos, I guess that's why I'm already obsessed with your content and I can't wait to see more. I found you through the video where you list other people's favorite books (it was in my recommendations) and as my favorite book is 'the book thief' I actually made it on the list (yaaayyy). Anyway, thanks for reading, have nice day. Bye:))

[@ihatealexander]

Your work ethic lately has been immaculate. Keep up the great work and keep putting out great videos.

[@LittleMew133]

Even when she doesn’t post as much is completely fine, not of poor work ethic. Always best for her to prioritize her physical and mental health.

[@TheMasqerade]

Goddammit, Emma! You are literally spoiling us with all this wonderful content and I love every second of it!

[@safe-keeper1042]

A deer ate from your hand! Memory for life!

[@Brutishandshort]

Hello from Edinburgh! I came to your channel because I was searching for content about Rilke, and I've stayed as a reading enthusiast and autistic woman who really finds your content calming and accessible. I find louder chatty vloggers quite distressing but I really like your content and your obvious love of literature. I'd love a bookshelf tour as well, although it always adds more and more to a TBR as long as my arm :D

[@grrrr_mommy]

Hey Emma, i know that i'm not the first one to say this but there's really something unique about you that gives your viewers a kind of spark? Quarantine has been so depressing until i found your channel. You give off some kind of aesthetic vibes which feels like really cozy yk. Sigh why do i suck at describing things sobs Anyways i'm literally reading every book you recommend hehe BTW you should totally try out Diary Of A Bookseller ^-^ Byeeeee

I really really wish I had a place nearby with a lake or river😔😔 those shots are incredible

[@am13007]

Emma, this is to let you know something. I came across your channel about a month ago. And I love watching your videos. With everything going on, your videos bring a lot of peace to me. I'm having a particularly hard day today with online classes and assignments and everything. Watching your videos make me feel so much better. Thank you for making us feel at peace. Lots of love and light from India✨🌺

[@shrutighosh311]

I had tears watching you feed that cute little deer. Such a moment of purity, bliss and harmony with nature🌿❤️ :')

Oh I love the new setup and shelves. It looks so nice in that area, you did a wonderful job. Also I would love an updated bookshelf tour. Love the deers too in the beginning. That was so incredible that they came that close to you and let you feed them out of your hands. I was crying at that part. Love you!!

[@jessicajones6383]

Yes! Definitely an updated bookshelf tour! Hope you're well!

Just found you channel, but I’m in love at how much care and passion you have for the books you talk about! ❤️

Shared this one with my Aunt, who needs calming things, and I know of little, if anything, that calms and centers me like seeing Emma sharing her world and discussing books. Brava, and thank you. You have no idea how many you help.

YES PLEASE UPDATED BOOKSHELF TOUR!!! I rewatch your other one all the time haha

[@straygodz]

i see you’ve really been into animes and mangas lately. i recommend hyouka! it’s a slice of life collection of light novels that was adopted into anime. it’s about a group of high school students that are members of the classic literature book club and they just basically solve mysteries that occur in their daily lives. it’s really cute and soft. the animation is the best!!! a masterpiece!! i can’t stress this enough. unfortunately, the light novels that followed the anime have no english translation but you’d find different sites that translate it. the anime is here on yt too. 💗 anyway, i love this video so much. thank you, emma!

[@helloitsme5727]

🎉 Congratulations on 100k! 🎉 I opened the video earlier and saw that you were at 99.7k and I've been madly refreshing for the last hour watching it inch closer and closer lol. xD You were somewhere around 2.5-3k when I discovered your channel about a year ago. It's been incredible to watch it grow the past year. Thank you for all the wonderful, cozy content. Also, I second everyone who suggested Whisper of the Heart. It's one of my favorites! I would also recommend Arrietty -- it's so delightfully whimsical. The soundtrack is absolutely magical, too!

[@luisecastro6915]

Im so happy to see that you are reading Ferrante! This tetralogy has such an amazing story, characters and writing. Also, as Brazilian, Im extremely happy to see that you are reading (and loving) Machado de Assis.

[@moonstonepearl21]

Hi Emmie! How I recently found your channel was through your survey of peoples' favorite books video. It got recommended go me, and I was super impressed with all the work that was put into it. I saw a few more of your videos and soon decided to subscribe! :)

[@hafsaahmed3070]

um okay Emma i love you. These uploads are getting me thru finals season especially since I don't have time to read these days

[@caitlin1008]

I also have a tiny collection of manga and I absoluely love the My Hero Academia ones 🤗

[@anevildoer9252]

You asked for manga recommendations, so when it comes to romance I highly recommend you these: • "Old-Fashioned Cupcake" by sagan sagan - this is actually one of my favorite manga overall. It tells a story of 39-year-old Nozue, who deals with a middle age crisis. He's stuck in his routine and he's extremely tired of it, but he's too afraid to change anything in his life. Togawa, who is his subordinate is the only one who notices how depressed he is lately and offers him his help - he comes up with an idea of an "anti-aging therapy" they could go through together. He offers it, because in the past Nozue helped him and motivated him to keep on going, so he wanted to do the same for him - all the more that Nozue is the person he's in love with. I adore this manga, because it deals with so many issues - middle age crisis, depression, fear of change, what it means to be in a relationship with someone younger (for Togawa is ten years younger than Nozue) and if it is really an issue. I love how it's explained in this manga, actually it's one of my favorite quotes as well. • "Orange" by Takano Ichigo - It tells a story of Naho, who receives a letter from her future self. In this letter her future self tells her to try everything in her might to save Kakeru - a boy who just started going to her school and whom she'll fall in love with in the future. This manga also deals with a lot of important issues - depression, grief, the way people lie about their emotions and they're often not as fine as they say they are. I had a problem with liking Naho at first, but the deeper into the plot I got, the more I started to like her, eventually ending up loving her. Her relationship with Kakeru is shown in a very soft and sweet way. The other characters - their friends - are also really great, especially Suwa. I think you'd like him, he's such a sweetheart. • "Girl Friends" by Milk Morinaga - this is a much lighter manga than the other two. I read this quite a lot of years ago, in my elementary school years, so I don't remember everything that well. But I still recall it very warmly, especially that it was one of the first manga that showed me what is LGBTQ+ - because I had no idea at the time that even something like homosexuality existed - and that same sex relationships are perfectly normal. Anyways, this manga tells a story of Mari and Akko. They're complete opposites - Mari is a very quiet, shy girl, who doesn't have any friends, while Akko is a loud, open, quite popular girl. The girls don't really interact with each other, until one day, Akko suddenly asks Mari, if she wants to go home with her. From that day, Mari's world completely changes as Akko teaches her to really live her life and truly enjoy it. And of course, the closer they get the more they both fall in love with each other. It's really a lovely, gentle romance and it's also one of my favorites. So if you'd like something lighter, I highly recommend you this.

Oh my goodness, I don't know why but I always get excited when I find out that a youtuber I like is a fellow Canadian, not to mention a fellow Ontarian. I think that's just a really Canadian thing-getting excited when you find out you share the same nationality as someone cool on the Internet or an author or something. Good luck in lockdown (and if they choose to renew it)! Your videos are helping me survive.

[@denisefreitas6727]
