Sorry for the more minimal editing! If you’d like to work as an editor for me, email me examples of your work! Email is on the channel.

Does the editor need to be a Goblin?

This series started as a bookshelf roast. Now it's Daniel becoming an FBI profiler picking out America's next serial killer 😂

[@vol94]

Daniel just analyzing people's characters through shelves is giving me mad Sherlock Holme vibes.

Im getting more "Charlie Day at his conspiracy board vibes" tbh

[@camperchik163]

Before I even watch, I love that the giant Funko is still in tact.

[@breezy3392]

Me too. I thought for sure Daniel would destroy it off screen...or make a whole video of destroying it

[@Colaman112]

Daniel loves the giant Funko.

[@the_well-known_stranger2275]

[@neha2283]

*intact Sorry, your spelling bugs me

[@heatherly893]

You ask why these videos are popular? Because, Daniel, over the twenty-something years of my life, nothing else, neither the cajoling of my parents nor the pressure of "being an adult", has convinced me to consistently get up and clean my room.

[@axaverse]

this is hilarious xDDDD

[@mariesoppie72]

And as someone who bury her face in books and refuse to exist in reality i hardly have friends. So this is my only chance to show my dearest “world” collections aka my bookshelf ✨

Honestly this is so me. The only reason I ever clean is when he uploads these videos.

[@shyannebarretto9096]

YES

That, is the side panel of my computer. (to make you feel better, I moved and haven't been able to get my setup cozy yet because my main desk doesn't currently have legs)

[@audreywoodall1106]

Whenever I have anxiety or feel sad I organize my bookshelf while asking myself one question: would Daniel Greene approve?

[@Griffinhearted]

Daniel: "CDs are now worthless due to all this music being available everywhere else..." Also Daniel: *has a record collection*

[@David-un4cs]

Records have that retro aesthetic though and people talk up the sound. Even cassette tapes have a cooler aesthetic than CDs.

[@Griffinhearted]

@@David-un4cs Absolutely, that's why I collect them as well

[@DanielGreeneReviews]

But records provide a different sounds. CDs are just poopoo :P

[@JamesMcPartlan]

You could also say this a out paper books. Use a kindle.(devils advocate heh heh) Less need for wasted bookshelf space…. CD’s sound better than streaming and don’t require an internet connection or a monthly streaming service fee.

[@JamesMcPartlan]

@@LordOfTheRings897 I agree. I prefer real CDs and Real books. I actually like both Digital and real. Real so that they can't be taken away and I dont have a continual rental/Access Fee and digital for convenience. When travelling

[@aaronwilliams8887]

I am currently registering as a psychologist, and I now have a deep desire to request people's pictures of their bookshelves as part of the Assessment process. Honestly it's a hilarious projective test esspecally on how they organize their time and passions. Funny thing is that this is probably more valid then the Rorschach inkblot test.

[@the_bob_147]

Hey I am last year in high school and am thinking about going to a university to study psychology. Would you say it's worth it? Is it a good decision for anyone to make? I think psychology is fascinating but I mostly chose it because I like to work with people and with words and it feels like it would fit me. Do you have any regrets or do you have any advice as to what I should expect or beware? Sorry to bother you I mean it's the internet you don't have to reply at all. Have a nice day tho ;)

We need a shelf tutorial. Especially for lighting. I want to add LED strips, but have no idea how to.

[@boo-9348]

Put them on top of each shelf where it wouldn’t be shown n make them either yellow or white

[@StudioKato]

Oh god I feel for the person with that upside down book problem at 5:30. FOR SOME UNHOLY REASON FRENCH BOOK SPINES ARE PRINTED UPSIDE DOWN!!!! So it's either putting them face down which feels like something a serial killer would do, or dealing with upside down spines. I have ISSUES with this!

[@emilyk4437]

This is the series that brought me to this channel and now I’m obsessed. From his other videos, I have also been introduced to the Wheel of Time series and am looking forward to reading it.

Carpal tunnel tips: 1) Name it. That way instead of long-winded "I-was-editing-a-lot-and-my-wrist-started-acting-up" it can be the shorter and more entertaining "Fibonacci is afflicting me again." 2) Try a brace that doesn't have a finger loop, they are much better IMO. 3) Try sleeping with your arms up/behind your head.

[@juliasmith960]

Also try sleeping with a wrist brace loosely on. It'll give your wrist a chance to rest and repair as you sleep.

[@WraithMMX]

Dan has killed Chopachu three times already but it keeps coming back when he isn't looking. It will eventually consume his soul and it's too late to stop.

[@priceyblackwinter2338]

13:26 those actually aren't print outs, they're posters the Odeon cinema in the UK gives out for free. They're tiny but not just some kid using an inkjet

[@ELFNY]

Definitely frame those. They sound like potential collectors' items.

I want to defend your dad for his CD collection because there are still so many albums that are not available streaming, and I say this as someone who collects Japanese and Korean pop/rock CDs alongside rare CDs, lol. Love this series of videos, and I legit just love seeing people's bookshelves, and the different collections. I need to rearrange my shelves to get to A-B Tier. I'm not going for S-tier because that's too much pressure.

‘What I thought was a one time joke is now a serious part of my future…’ (takes off glasses dramatically) ‘my God… ‘ (everyone filling in the blank with- ‘What have I done?! 🤣) This is definitely one of my favorite segments of the channel. Please continue the feeding the flame.

[@DanielBeer1]

I will never stop buying CDs. Never!

[@Miss_Myth]

17:46 - It may not be a conspiracy wall! I've seen that used as a plotting tool for writers before. One card will have an event/incident, with strings connecting to other cards that show the results/fallout of that incident. ((Doesn't necessarily make it better or change the grade though. 😅))

Daniel, seeing this series become so popular: "I may have girlbossed a little too close to the sun"

[@ratacus]

I have just watched all your shelf roasts back to back and oh boy I am itching to take action. I've been studying abroad for 18 months and only have been able to bring a small fraction of my book collection around with me. In that time I've also collected a fair few more books. My shelves at home needed sorting before I even went away, and my mum has recently bought me a new empty shelf knowing I would probably need it upon return, which is now in two weeks time. My family is going to be heartbroken when I finally walk back in the door, go straight past their loving faces and open arms, and instead run right to my bookshelves to give them the thorough organisation and love they deserve!

[@JudieTroy]

Is it weird that I'm considering making a twitter account just so you can roast my shelves? Also, on the 7th shelve I'm not sure that book is upside down, it might just be a french edition. The lettering on spine in french edition is written from bottom to top as opposed to top to bottom in English language edition.

[@nevillethedevil3041]

I made a twitter account just to let Daniel roast my shelves and I have missed the entry EVERYTIME.... totally not salty 😒😅 But u should totally make one. Be warned to keep checking it cause it’s very easy to miss when he posts to do the book roasting.

Cats: cuddling with Dune Daniel (and every other proper booknerd): They know where it's at. They've sorted out their priorities. And note to Daniel: the books you said are upside down aren't actually. Titles on Spanish, French and other European languages are written on the spines the reverse way to English books. It's hella confusing I know, as I own Spanish and French language books myself.

[@meganfownes1783]

This is what I've been missing in my life

[@TypOnomIcon]

I got rid of most of my books when my wife and I moved into our house last year. I'm rebuilding my collection with special editions of books I love and have influenced me as well as re-purchasing standards of some old favorites. I'm for sure entering once I have my library room finished in 10 years or so.

[@ravensandblots]

Literally 60% of all the roasts are either “you have someone tied up in the basement/you are a serial killer” and I love it! 😂

[@adamrivers3250]

I don’t have enough books to justify having a bookshelf imo. Tho since I came across your channel Daniel I have picked up all the WOT books (currently 10/14 thru) so I pretty much need a shelf just for those plus asoiaf & Sherlock Holmes.

yes that's my shelf, it's true. I spent an unsettling amount of time trying to figure if I should have the spine or the actual book the right way up lmfaoo

[@karakask5488]
