decluttering our books

[@wingsofporcelain13]

This is the most realistic book declutter I've ever seen. Everyone else is always like oh I read this and I loved it but it's time to move on! And I'm like what do you mean you loved it and you're getting rid of it. Your mom is like no don't take my books I love them.

''The Book Lesbian''. Give us a break and stop being such a hypocritical person. Anyway, you do perfectly describe yourself in your comment.

[@inesfsmonteiro]

Wow a multilingual house with loads of books, so cool ✨️ thanks for sharing this with us, Emma 💌

[@sarcastic_fish]

I wish my family liked reading and collecting books too 😢 this was so fun to watch tho! Love your mom’s features in your vlogs, so this was a treat 😊

[@cherrynumero22]

Your mom: Emma isn't this going to be very boring? Us: NO WAY THIS IS THE CONTENT WE WANT

[@sarcastic_fish]

[@eleanor6747]

Truly the best part of going through books with your mom is getting to snag some for yourself 😎

[@sarcastic_fish]

te he I’ve been rumbled, this may have been my ulterior motive 👀👀

[@lilgrin2164]

as an italian i go absolutely feral anytime your mum makes an appearance and anytime i see her italian books i go back to my liceo days i wanna cryyyy - also love that she's an adelphi girlie, as she should!!

[@Elena-sv5zq]

This was the video I never knew I needed. And as I am in the middle of decluttering our entire house of books - thank you all for the inspiration.

[@Selenite11]

Aww we get to see your lovely mother, finally. Great vlog, a pleasure to watch.

[@JeanineMarieCompassion]

Your mom is amazing! This video was so emotionally satisfying! It definitely sparked joy! I wish I could be there to help-alas I am in Arizona!💖💖💖

[@aejlindvall]

Loved this! Has helped my parents to do the same, and organizing the books - so much fun! And then you can borrow and get their books, perfect!

[@mononoke383]

[@katebanazek1031]

This video is so nice to watch, and very calming. Thank you for all the content you make, I always appreciate your videos :)

[@hannahhyslop6327]

Howard’s End is on the Landing is a lovely little memoir about books and authors I feel your mum was channeling

[@victoria4671]

[@astardanced2260]

Oh my God, I love that your Mum also has "Eats, Shoots and Leaves"! My Mum has it as well!

[@Giovanni-lw2mg]

This video was Perfetto💕

[@karakask5488]

Nerd here, this was wonderful!

[@EllaCharlotteJones]

loved this!

[@libellulareading8859]

Oh my, I love those Italian books! I learned Italian as a second language and I can never find good literature where I live (town of population 4,000 ahahaha) unless it is online! I'll have to look into some of those titles!! And your camaraderie together is so sweet, it's a pleasure to watch!! I hope my library can be as big as yours one day hahaha :-)

[@BaileeWalsh]

The number of times I went back to laugh at: "Aren't people going to be completely, terribly bored, Emma?" "WHAT!... uh, no. These are fucking nerds, mom." "Ah, okay." I knew it was coming because of the opening, but the full context of you reassuring her this is what we're here for is hilarious! Also, not me with my book wishlist open adding your mom's recommendations! okay but I'm truly confused by you saying you were too old when you got the Sookie Stackhouse series because those are the books that the show True Blood is based on...? and I haven't read the books so maybe they read like mediocre fantasy romance but the show is so known for its overt sexiness.

[@CharlesJosepDelDotto]

When my wife and I bought our house 3 years ago, we chose the house in part because it has a very large open finished walk-out basement that we planned to transform into a library to hold the 10,000+ books we have. However, due to the pandemic, we were unable/unwilling to bring carpenters into our home to do the work necessary to transform the space, and the books have all been languishing in waist-high stacks in the guest bedroom down there. Every time I go downstairs, my heart sinks. At this point, I have no idea when the library will be built.

[@VictorAugustus]

I just discovered that i love Leonardo Sciascia.

[@illchangemyusernamewhenith9130]

Coming from an American your mother sounds like a movie villain talking about the books that can't stay lol

[@BookTimeWithRyan]

Crime writers, nice! We finally see mom without the emojis covering her!

[@jennyyeh4730]

You can read Silas Marner by George Eliot ! It’s a short book :)

[@sarcastic_fish]

Oooo honestly that’s such a shout, thank you!

[@geertruischouterden8817]

EEN KABAS 😂😂 Wat een heerlijke video!!

[@sarcastic_fish]

tehehe

[@BookTimeWithRyan]

No LeCarré?

[@lfior]

I'm like your mom except I can't read Dutch, I can read greek ♥️

[@mrodriguez377]

We aree fucking nerds lol, your mom is so wholesome

[@josie.s.2553]

With how embarrassed your mum was about her bookcase she doesn’t want anyone to see, I thought it would end up being a collection of bodice rippers! 😂 a collection of crime novels really isn’t something to be ashamed of 📚

[@ΑγνήΛεοντοπούλου]

Yes the book thief has been made into a film but in my opinion quite overrated , I wouldn’t bother trying with the book

[@cassylk22]

Why not host a few giveaways lmao

[@johnsaxongitno4life588]

Emma come and do my books 📚 please love this video and your amazing channel please stay safe and enjoy your reading love your family friend John ❤❤❤

[@joannaszulc1496]
