Is there another option to send you pictures of bookshelves outside of twitter?

[@AnonymousOnimous]

Thank you Daniel. I had no idea how much I needed to choke on my tea at you chaotically huffing tropical fumes. But in all sincerity, I've been a bit stressed over medical things, and this video has been the first thing today to make me laugh.

[@DeanWBarry]

Is it perfume, are you supposed to just smell it? Why it sponsoring the fantasy book guy lol. It just seems like such a strange audience to target with smells.

[@AnonymousOnimous]

@@DeanWBarry I dunno, Powels City of Books in Portland has their own perfume. It smells... like books. Don't ask me how they did that, but they did. And it sells.

[@DeanWBarry]

@@AnonymousOnimous Yeah I guess a bookstore having a book themed scent would work but this is scents unrelated to books as well i guess?

[@Elijah_Gillard]

As I’m sure someone pointed out, the ‘ how old is Percy actually?‘ is in reference to Percy Jackson, and LT is probably Lightning thief. Anyway, you get the idea, hopefully you can sleep at night now

[@allmyself666]

Beat me to it.

[@pyroshell5652]

LT - Lightning Thief SM - Sea of Monsters BL - Battle of the Labyrinth LO - The Last Olympian. "LH + SN + MA + HH" Lost Hero + Son of Neptune + Mark of Athena + House of Hades. Each number is probably how many years have passed since the start of the series.

[@Willsdeadbodyintartarus]

I was just about to say this!

[@AHealthyDoseofFran]

That’s me! I am the person. Yeah I’m working out to show how Rick got Percy’s age wrong and by how much 😂

[@gamedispute5122]

@@AHealthyDoseofFran Wait so what should his actual age have been?

[@b.i.c.violet4545]

bold of you to assume that lil Christmas tree isn't there all year round. that's what I would assume

[@Glokta4]

I feel that at some point I must cook a roast, put it on my bookshelf, then submit the picture.

[@heitorcoutinho4462]

The editing in these keeps getting weirder. Love it.

[@meganferguson1291]

The mystery board was about Percy Jackson. LT is the 1st book, The Lightning Thief. SM is Sea of Monsters, etc each set of initials representing a book in the overarching Riordanverse by Rick Riordan starting with the Percy Jackson series going into Heroes of Olympus and finally the Trials of Apollo. Percy is given a canonical age via the author and books but a lot of fans think with the amount of time spent across the latter two series that he should've aged more than just a year or two over the course of those 10 books given he aged 4 years in the first 5 books of the original series.

[@AHealthyDoseofFran]

Hey that’s me! Yeah, I also say that he’s not 16 by last Olympian cause sea of monsters and titans curse take place in the same year 🎉

[@brandf.7691]

@@AHealthyDoseofFran Isn't he 12 in the first book though?

[@CorbosAcer]

To add to this, there’s weirdness around his birth. Percy’s birthday is at the end of summer, but his parents are said to have met at the start of summer and only been together for one summer. Which means either his birth was extremely premature, extremely postmature, or his parents met in the southern hemisphere.

[@AHealthyDoseofFran]

@@brandf.7691 the number is a 1 as in its 1 year

[@perpetuallyonline]

@@AHealthyDoseofFran Percy says he's 12 in the Lightning Thief. Sea of Monsters happens the next summer so he's 13. Titan's Curse takes place that winter, which means Percy would've already turned 14 in August. In BoTL he's still 14 and we see him celebrate his 15th birthday in the last chapter. And the Last Olympian is set in August of the next year so he's 15 for the most part and turns 16 towards the end. The events of Heroes of Olympus take place the next June-August (except for the Lost Hero in the previous winter) and so Percy continues being 16 and would turn 17 in the upcoming weeks after Blood of Olympus. Trials of Apollo starts from January of the next year meaning Percy is now canonically *17 years old* until we have more books that take place after August. Rick is not very clear when it comes to the ages of his characters (see Nico, for example) but the one time he was very clear was with Percy.

[@lolthejoker]

Thank you so much to the person that summited the funko one, the reaction was worth it

[@katemccrea6963]

The Cheshire Cat was mine and that wasn't even in my initial submission post lol.

[@Lizzie_04]

The irony of Daniel wondering if the board is talking about an obscure fantasy author when it’s Rick Riordan (love you Daniel).

[@gabbodelaparrawrites]

The one with the blocked window took me to truly dark places

[@Nickfor20]

Is it normal that I’m craving for a roast of my bookshelf everytime I see these videos?😂

[@encyclical]

Me too… but it also makes me feel I should clean it up / add stuff….

[@BWinced]

Same. But I must build bookshelves first. All my books are in storage bins.

[@Xandycane]

Same but my bookshelf is just the top of my computer desk. I use my reader for most reading.

[@meikusje]

I know for a fact he would hate my shelves, because I make zero effort to make them aesthetically pleasing 😂 but at least there's no knackage and certainly no Funkos!

[@noahrogers2156]

every time i see the video im pained that i missed his announcment tweet

[@Graycata]

You mentioned the salt lamp. So many people i talked to who have a salt lamp have said variations of "I thought it was just for ambience, it does something?" None of us knew about the "science" part of salt lamps

[@whylal]

7:26 hearing daniel call the embroidery crochet hurts my needlework heart (half joking). It's a very nice embroidered skull!

[@seaof_stars]

as a crocheter who has been learning embroidery (I can succesfuly stick the needle into the cloth without burning the house down), it was painful lol

[@anacampos6240]

That alone almost made me close the video and go find something else to do '-'

[@zoecoffee6601]

Omg same!! After he said that I went straight to the comments to see if I was the only one who noticed

[@trippmiller9654]

Honored to be roasted so brutally on my first submission. I’ll reevaluate my life decisions now

[@one-man-band]

I'm a big fan of these cat videos where you talk in the background.

[@PrinceMeNb1]

That wall of shelves in front of the posters might have a deeper meaning. The artist obviously showed us that we ARE able to stop big brother from watching. It just takes dedication and a few hundred books

[@pauliusbaranauskas7915]

This video made me go on an hour long shelf-cleaning spree and I can't forgive you for it

[@n1ppe]

Good

[@AllisonJones1875]

Daniel will slowly continue to add more and more video boxes (there's probably a better term for that), until eventually every single book on the shelves will have a video fitted to the spine.

[@berlinbuilds]

Bro!! You roasted my shelf!! Haha, thanks! There’s a lot of work to do. We’re planning on building an office/library eventually. With my wife listening to The Way of Kings and enjoying it I can see a lot more fantasy books in our future 😎 It was awesome meeting you! Keep up the great content!

[@cassieplatt1480]

Blocking the window is where I draw the line! Also the one with the plants and the map... I'm a crazy plant lady so wasn't bothered except that yes, their next book haul will also require a shelf haul.

[@melaniev9446]

Love these roasts, especially the clean it up first one. The moment these submissions ever open up to discord or insta I will definitely join in to see what his opinions on my shelves happens to be. And Mako was added perfection.

[@williamvictory3180]

They should make a funko pop of Daniel. It would be their best seller.

[@hannahmarie08]

I swear these videos always pop up when my bookshelf is at its messiest and then I get self-conscious about it + clean it

[@jegheterarman]

I always get so happy when you upload videos man! Love that you’ve found your new groove also. Keep it up!

[@crazybalrog4033]

3:42 I think it's about the age of Percy Jackson and the letters are the books. LT is Lightning Theif, SM is Sea of Monsters etc. Not sure what the numbers mean.

[@AHealthyDoseofFran]

Hey this is me, I was trying to work out the fact that Rick Riordan got his age wrong based on the timeline of the books 😂

I look forward to all these videos 😁 can't wait for this 😁

[@lotrings1]

The Goblin Judgement has been delivered upon my shelves. Thanks for the A+ man. I blocked the window because... it was in the way. The poster I got after the bookshelves were added. I just bought a size too big. That's why my copy of 1984 with the eye is in front. Loved the video.

[@gnomishviking3013]

How can I send in my shelf? I don’t use Twitter. I need to be roasted slowly for maximum tenderness.

[@trud7302]

I think it is funny that Daniel assumes that we have leftover wall space to fit in a new book shelf :'D

[@dajtoad1]

That’s lack of commitment. Build an annex to your house! 😂😂😂

[@edgy_velpciraptr]

I’m so excited that my shelves made it on this one! I will now be using the term “modern voracious reader” to describe myself. Also, the side stack of books was a stack that I was unhauling from my shelves this year 😂 they have lost their spot on the shelves.

[@kianadoescod6402]

At this point I’m thinking my bookshelf is just TOO beautiful and that’s why you aren’t roasting it Daniel 😂😂 it’s the only way I will be able to live with it! 😂

[@Connor_Crain]

The creepy bird in the beginning is a Porg FunkoPop 😂 , my friend has one, it’s also a bobble head, a useless bobble head because the neck feathers stop the head from wiggling 😂

[@brodiewhitburn4562]

I like my Porg haha but yeah, the head doesn't really bobble. He us only there to look good.

[@alice83ruby]

I love this editing style it’s not stale were there is no edit like moving clips but it’s not too overwhelming were it gets clips really fast. This editing style is the best for ADHD folks. Ex: There’s a stimulant that’s constant (Cat and Background Music)

It is one of my goals to get my bookshelf to a submitable state! This series needs to continue.

Daniel: "I don't like RGB that much." Also Daniel: *Has a bookshelf with RGB lights in the background of every video.

You're probably going to have to read Brody's book now, given all the sh*t you've given it. xD

Haha I am a bit nervous if he were to actually read it one day lol, but what hope he would at least like the characters 🤣😁

Please daddy goblin can you for once let us know when you're doing one of these on youtube? For us those who don't use twitter? Maybe a community tab post or something

[@graphthis2249]

For what it’s worth I have a salt lamp. I don’t think they do a thing. Mine is just round and it reminds me of a dragon egg so I like the aesthetic haha

[@Andrew_Young]

I love how this is still genuinely a roast. There are loads of gorgeous shelves that people send him that I would give an A+, but Daniel gives them like B's and C's. Savage! Those people are probably dying inside that he didn't give them an A!

[@wa11ie]

as someone who grew up on library books and whose collection is a bunch of birthday gifts and some books i bought with my adult money, matching editions and full series don‘t exist on my shelf and i‘m not ashamed of that. out of the two full series that i do own, one is actually a perfect collection, the other one has one paperback (travel sized) and then only hardbacks.

[@8Makes1]

Missed the toast once again 😭. Daniel gets more savage with each roast video and I'm HERE FOR IT.

[@saharadessert8917]

I cannot--repeat--CANNOT color-coordinate my books! I have to know EXACTLY where they are when I want to read them, and if I color-coordinate them, I will be hunting for ages. If color-coordinating works for you, go for it, but I cannot function without a "library arranged" shelf, if you get what I mean

[@bye6994]

7:11 I have no idea if anybody commented this yet, but the reason the sandshrew has a case is because it has been graded. It being a 10 means that the card is center, no nicks in the corner, and overall nothing is wrong with the card and it is absolutely perfect. It improves its worth as a card, and could make it worth a bunch more from its original form. (It not being graded) (also its sometimes very hard to get a 10, so the dude probably wanted to show it off loll tbh i would too)

[@Kceam]

As someone with a saltlamp, sometimes you just have them because they can look nice

[@aksharaghav9657]

I wanted to back the Lawful Times Bookmark, but it says that my card does not perform this type of purchase. So, I ended up backing the project without any rewards. If there is any other way to make the payment, please let me know. I really want that bookmark, since I don't know any other way to remember where I left off!

[@ThomasSisson251]

Got a question for those who follow the Greene Daniel...or perhaps the Goblin himself if he is available. I got back into reading recently, and therefore have WAY too many large fantasy series to get through. If you were in a similar situation, would you rather... A) Read all the books in a particular series in order straight through to preserve the narrative flow B) Skip around through three or four series so that one narrative never gets stale or C) Some combination of those two, perhaps including what I like to call a "pallet cleanser" book outside the genre of high fantasy/sci-fi to read in-between the 700 page behemoths of Wheel of Time Any and all suggestions are welcome and appreciated...thank you for your time.

[@savannahnewton8984]

I would recommend option C here, as that’s what I’ve done in the past. I found that I needed a break of some kind between entries in big series like wheel of time to avoid too much of a good thing.

[@ThomasSisson251]

@@savannahnewton8984 thank you much

[@marcusdowning]

I favour B, but you do you.

[@dropslemon]

I personally go straight through until I start feeling a little burnt out on the series! At that point I'll find a palate cleanser or two to break up the series.

[@dajtoad1]

I go with one major series at a time, plus palate cleansers to break it up. Pratchett very useful for this purpose.
