My sister is a bookworm and for a class we were supposed to interview a person on where they wanted to go and we plan an interview for them. I was watching this with my sister and we were both happy. I hope she meets more bookworm friends and gets to have a day like this when she is older. Thanks for the video!

It is so incredibly dreary where I live today and this video just gives me the warmest, fuzziest feeling in the world! I visited Persephone Books and Gay's the Word for the first time earlier this year, all because of BookTube. I don't think I would have been aware of them otherwise. I bought Mariana, then found 5 more Persephone books in a charity shop in Hay-on-Wye when I visited later in the year. Such luck! I'm going to dive into one today, it's the perfect weather. Thank you for this video.

With another favourite booktuber of mine. I love that you two are friends and that you do these. I'm definitely going to try to make it to Persephone Books and Foyle's while I'm there but I have to be careful as I have too many books already. Would you recommend By Chloe? It's so hard to narrow down food options in such a metropolis.

Great day! Loved the video! I wish I could do such a book walk, but in my part of the U.S. we have mostly chain book shops, with a handful of small indie book shops. You'd need to drive quite a while from one to another. (No wonder so many people use Amazon.) Thankfully we have lots of libraries. 📚 Was excited to see you lunched at By Chloe? How was it?
