cindy's so shy and soft. this is her true persona guys. everything else is a lie and a mask to hide who she truly is. ah see what true love can do to a person

[@withcindy]

hi everyone. so the reason why i was a bit shy in the beginning of the video was because ellias and i had just woken up together. we had to share the same bed because there was only one bed, and even though we made sure to sleep on separate sides, we didn't expect to wake up in each other's arms, tangled in each other's limbs. ellias was just as flustered as i was, and in an effort to make things feel normal again, he suggested we do a video collab. i agreed and tried my best to put on a normal smile, ignoring all the questions swirling in my head: what did this mean? are we really more than friends? was that a phone i felt in his pocket, or something more? it was difficult for me to focus on the tag questions when the real question in my mind was our entire relationship. i hope this clears things up for everyone. thank you.

I feel like if Ellias and Cindy combined their brain cells they could write a really rad time travel novel or mystery because they'd figure out all the loopholes

cindy would probably try to find all the loopholes and i would be content with finding like one or two haha

As someone who has worked in retail and is currently working in a library, library all the way. You’re not dealing with pissed off customers as much, and people are usually happier to be there because they’re not spending money lol. Also it’s great to see little old people come in and take out the max number of books and come back like 2 or 3 days later and get more because they’ve already read all of them 😁

[@bettyreads222]

ah those questions at the end were stressful haha what a fun video.

[@ashleygrunewald3103]

I laughed for five minutes to the answer about being a librarian rather than a book seller. I work in a public library and the key is to drop your expectations about people and society in general at the door. You will get so many questions and some of them are... interesting. The great thing is people go to the library to get information and we can be there to help no matter the question.

[@ellias]

this book tag took a dark turn as the video progressed.

[@balqishazal]

omg i was watching their old collabs and was wondering when will they do more collabs and LOOK WHAT WE HAVE HERE

[@caitlyn.m.t9618]

Five books a week, easily. You never said what kind of book it had to be. It could be a play, a short story, a poetry collection, a novella. I enjoy all of those and I want to read more of all of them. That would actually be ideal for me. Especially considering how I read more than one book at once. Also like...This may be weird but a genre doesn't really influence my decision to read a book? Like it is more what it is about and whether I like the writing of the book itself than anything else. So I don't really have a favourite genre. So that question doesn't work for me.

[@amandalagerfeld6849]

I’m a librarian and I have to say that working in a library is dealing with way more annoying people. I think most people when they hear librarian think public library. I work in a medical school library. I deal with medical students who are spoiled brats and I am surrounded by journals and medical textbooks. In a bookstore generally people are looking for books. In libraries people are looking for free internet (and yes people frequently watch porn in the library)journal articles, research assistance ect. It is actually rare you get to deal with fun literature!

As someone who works at a library, librarians do in fact have to deal with a lot of craziness and I can see the benefits of own a bookstore.

Ok so if you can read every genre except your favorite, and a new genre ends up becoming your favorite, then now is your new favorite genre off-limits and your old favorite genre fair game again?

[@jayarna7506]

I am a librarian and I can confirm you get stupid people everywhere. People are really entitled however and have worked in retail so I know they would be even worse in a place where they are spending money. Also a lot of booksellers have a focus on top charts which means you miss a lot of books

I’m with Cindy on five pages a day. What’s the point of reading that fast? I don’t get to enjoy the books, it becomes more about reading than about the books. And I have done several books a week when I was younger. I much prefer my slower approach. Of reading one book in under four hours and waiting before I read the next one. It’s a compromise.
