It’s been so long since I’ve been to a bookstore, it was nice to live vicariously through this video

[@idklmao123zz]

my lazy ass sitting here noticing I have never been to a bookstore 💀

[@heroinescorner]

that was the point of the video, so vicariously live away☺️ i hope you can get to a bookstore soon!

[@EpicReads]

Book shopping makes us sooo happy!

[@heroinescorner]

it’s the best type of therapy☺️

[@MinxLaura123sWackyWorld]

me too ! : )

[@amydieca4]

this was sooo cute, you did such a good job of transporting us to the bookstore with you and i haven't been to a book store in more than a year, thank u so much 🥺❤️

[@heroinescorner]

awww thank you so much for your kind words!! i’m so happy you enjoyed the video🥰

[@cooksbooks5451]

The vibes are immaculate~ I went to a waterstones yesterday and nearly cried. It's good to be back

[@heroinescorner]

so good! this is the real ‘nature is healing’💚

[@yasminbereadin]

HOW HAVE U NEVER MADE A VLOG BEFORE OMG the vibes the fit the aesthetic shots WOW i might just leave my house now (the last book I borrowed was the audiobook for sleeping giants, PHENOMENAL)

[@heroinescorner]

IM TOO SCARED TO VLOG PROPERLY. i live the most boring life ever😭 i had to google sleeping giants and damn that book sounds so interesting! not really my genre, but i feel like it would make a good movie.

[@theoracleofdelfi1098]

this video called me broke in aesthetic background music but it was cozy so I don't mind (also YAY I'M READING BLACK SUN RIGHT NOW AND IT'S LITERALLY AMAZING!!!)

[@heroinescorner]

imagine walking through the store ready to go into debt for books😭 bookstores are a dangerous place.

[@pagesofcarolyn]

cozy,bookstore vibes all the way!!

[@heroinescorner]

it’s the only way to do a bookstore vlog☺️

[@hannthology785]

The manga section oh myyyyy 😍😍

[@heroinescorner]

I KNOW RIGHT! i would raid the section but mangas are so expensive😭

[@loverofallanimals3112]

The vibes are so chill, though now I wish I could go to a bookstore 😭

[@perksofstef]

ahhh can't wait to go to bookstores!! Also those journals were gorgeous

[@heroinescorner]

i’m gonna have to go back and one, they were absolutely stunning!

[@OliviasCatastrophe]

I miss living in the UK and being near a waterstones, buying a book and then having a coffee in the cafe with a snack while I start reading it :') I'll be back soonish hopefully. But it was nice to live through this video x

[@BookishBabe]

This is a super cute video! So glad bookshops are finally open!

[@heroinescorner]

thank you! yes, just being around so many books did something to my soul☺️

[@gothicbibliophile]

ooo great haul ! one of the last books i borrowed from the library was dolls vol 2

[@heroinescorner]

thank you! i hadn’t heard of that book before, it sounds interesting☺️

[@MissLunnaris]

this was so relaxing and atmospheric, thank you!

[@FilipeHeath]

the black flamingo ❤️

[@heroinescorner]

seen nothing but praise for it, so i had to pick it up!

[@ShotMap]

Heaven of English books... We have the same in Brussels Thanks for sharing👏👏👏

[@p_p_p_p_7732]

This was a lovely vlog, finally picked up books I ordered back in December from my local Waterstones this week 🤗

[@heroinescorner]

i’m glad you enjoyed watching☺️ and damn that such a long time to wait, i’m happy you finally have them!

[@155books]

this was so gorgeously done & you picked up some great reads!! 👌🏻🧡

[@heroinescorner]

thank you!! now the only question is whether i read them soon or if they stay unread for months😅

[@emeline_4]

Oh wow, I miss this so much! Thanks for taking us along, can't wait until I can go again

[@heroinescorner]

i’m so glad you enjoyed the video!☺️

[@ZzZivaReads]

Aah looks so good! This makes me miss bookshops so much 😭

[@heroinescorner]

i hope you get to one soon! they are literally my happy place!

[@EricKarlAnderson]

This was lovely! Thank you! 📚 So impressed you can film while walking down stairs because I would for sure trip. 😅 It was fun seeing which books get a thumbs up. You've reminded me I still need to read The Girl with the Louding Voice. Last book I borrowed from a library was Exhalation by Ted Chiang.

[@heroinescorner]

i almost tripped SO MANY TIMES😭 i don’t know how these vloggers do it. i see exhalation is a short story collection? i would love to hear your thoughts on it because i’m trying to get more into short stories this year!

[@ariannelg]

I came through Eric’s channel! Last book I bought was Land of Big Numbers. Thank you for this waterstones visit. Looking forward to hearing about Sokcho!

[@nthabiandherbooks]

I'm yet to walk into a waterstones, might be a goal for this weekend.

[@heroinescorner]

DO IT. it was the most therapeutic thing ever😌

[@LoveSam-]

Okay but this video was amazing!! How come your Waterstones is so cool? Mine is like tiny and has barely anything good 😂 but all in all this was a very relaxing video and I think u came out with some really good books!

[@heroinescorner]

aww thank you!! sometimes i love the tiny bookstores though, makes me feel all cozy and that i’m diving into a small lil world or something. i’m very grateful for my big store as well though!

[@wellreadandhalfdead1683]

This vlog was literally so pretty 😭 I actually went to the library today and checked out Plain Bad Heroines by Emily M. Danforth.

[@heroinescorner]

that’s a book that been getting so much praise! i hope you enjoy it☺️

[@lisaelisabethmariajonker2429]

My last books I bought from the Bruna are some random book called de duistere school and I bought the 5th hungergames book

[@TravelsinFiction]

This was such a fun video to follow you along with! The last book I got out from the library was an audiobook of The Pretty One by Keah Brown ☺️

[@heroinescorner]

I’m hoping to read the pretty one for the disability readathon this month! i hope we both enjoy it☺️

[@paramedicchrisbookseries]

Nothing like a decent bookshop.

[@oliviaturner3345]

Heaven is a bookshop! I went in our local Waterstones on Monday and almost skipped 😂

[@heroinescorner]

i relate to this COMPLETELY! thankfully no one could see me grinning like an idiot because of my mask😁

[@celine22712]

the last book I bought was months ago, I found a non-movie tie in cover (always the superior covers imo) of call me by your name at an independent bookstore! also unrelated but - how do you get your glasses not to fog up under your mask ??😅I wear glasses too and it’s such a struggle trying to go out bc they always fog up sooner or later

[@heroinescorner]

movie-tie in covers are the WORSE. and i’ve found that making sure my mask is completely flat against my nose and face is the best way to go. it took many months to discover this😅

[@kellymcfarlane6120]

The last book I bought was House of Hollow by Krystal Sutherland. I’m very excited for it to come. I should not have watched this video... I now want a trip to Waterstones to buy all of the books 🥰

[@heroinescorner]

oh my god that book with the most stunning cover ever! it’s a new release so i’m excited to see what people think of it! (and i’m the devil on your shoulder telling you to BUY ALL THE BOOKS😈)

[@kellymcfarlane6120]

@@heroinescorner it’s gorgeous isn’t it? I read A Semi-Definitive List of Worst Nightmares by the same author last month and it was incredible. Very nice timing that she had a new release pretty much a week later 🥰🥰

[@saranvdv2768]

The last book I got from the library was such a fun age by kiley Reid!!

[@heroinescorner]

i’ve heard mixed things about such a fun age, but i hope you enjoy it!

[@charlieri6338]

Greggs and Waterstones: the true backbone of Britain.

[@danialtanvir]

[@heroinescorner]

[@danialtanvir]

[@lindarosborough7091]

How nice to be book-shopping again! We are locked down in Ontario, Canada. The last book I borrowed from the library is How to Pronounce Knife, a book of short stories by Souvankham Thammavongsa. It won the 2020 Scotiabank Giller Prize here in 🇨🇦 Hello! This is my first comment - I am a recent subscriber.

[@heroinescorner]

Thank you for subscribing!☺️ I hadn’t heard of that book before but this year i am trying to read more short stories, so thank you for putting it on my radar!

[@jr5538]

Everyone likes red rising. I’m on chapter 9… it’s starting so slow. When does it actually get good?!

[@heroinescorner]

hey! it’s definitely a slower book. i read the trilogy years ago so my memory is hazy, but i think by the half way mark i was totally hooked

[@alekwithlove]

Lovely video!

[@heroinescorner]

thank you😊

[@louisity]

My latest book haul video, which is entitled louisity Book Haul 9, showcases my latest purchased books written by Asian authors. 📚🛒 Watching this video, I feel like I can smell the lovely scent of the pages of the books. 📚 I 💗💗💗💗 bookstore vlogs! 📚🛒📹
