#BookshelfRoast

[@laurend6931]

Loved this so much! Gavin: “ I just can’t roast!” Also Gavin: “I’m now drinking whenever I feel despair.” ☠️😂😂 The library is OPEN!

[@heabooktubes]

Why is “it’s fine” more brutal than all your other roasts put together. 😂😂😂

[@SleepingCatCafe]

2:22 “No, I’m not book shopping-wait I already own it” cracked me up 😂

[@brittanyr0613]

Ah you finally did mine I’m so happy! Thank you for the love!! My dad actually custom made them earlier this year after my mom passed and we turned our guest room into a library. The purple flowers are an ode to BTS’ color being purple but it was also my moms favorite color and a small nod to her love of reading too. My dad actually wasn’t a fan of the Ivy 😂 The shelves themselves are a very light white purple color but it’s hard to notice in photos. And yes that is a bts shelf/shrine 😂 I ran out of room on the smaller one so it started bleeding into the rest of them. I tried to section all the shelves by genre but they’re not organized in their sections aside from vibes lol so excited to be a 10/10! ❤❤❤

[@itll_be_owlright]

Hey ARMY ^_^ 💜 Love your book shelves! And the meaning/thought behind them makes it even more precious. The purple flowers are so beautiful and all the lil' framed pics interspersed among the albums are really pretty. I noticed you even have a tiny framed good boy Jimin hehe.

[@kirikat9365]

You try to roast and you toast. You try to toast and you roast. Gav dear, I think you mixed up your hats 😂

[@emmal7510]

Gavin: Refers to MYST as a CD Me: Crumbles to dust Okay, technically, it's a CD-ROM, but I'm old enough to remember when that game was HUGE.

[@zoeh179]

Same I just posted a similar comment. It’s iconic and honestly blows my mind that some people have lived life not knowing about Myst!

[@burymewithabook]

Ahhh Myst was sooo good

[@cassettetape7643]

OMG, a 'Roast n' Toast' collab between Gavin & Daniel is something I now NEED to have in my life!!!!!

[@MichelleReadsandVlogs]

I feel that this was more roasty than the last time 😂

[@beckyduff]

That's what I was thinking too

[@KristinKravesBooks]

I had to pause when you said "I feel like Swoop has got to make a documentary about you". I could not stop laughing 😂

[@aesyfreedom9655]

‘The wood gives me wood’ needs to be on a shirt fr

[@jen_h]

I love how mine got roasted! I stand by my glass shelves purely because my friend gave them to me for free and I’m cheap about upgrading 😂😂. I’d rather spend that money on books.

[@yodizzle]

These videos are the first, in a very long time, that truly captivate me rofl Like, i am glued to the screen the whole time, adhd be damned lol

[@katewillread1509]

Gavin, I ADORE you and when I tell you I was ready to barf waiting for you to get to mine, the irrational anxiety was flaring! I truly feel honored and humbled by you laying eyes on my shelves 😂. Our reading tastes occasionally cross paths but tbh I’m mostly here for your dazzling charisma and personality 😊. Ps. The “empty plant pot” is actually a candle.

[@nanimaonovi2528]

You are never seeing my shelves. My asthetic is tidy person gets possessed by book hoarding demon. The books on minimalism I display are ironic now.

[@Kite562reviews]

Oh Gavin I perfer your bookshelf toast series since it's your own take on the matter. My shelf has changed a little bit over the months; but the shelves featured, look absolutely lovely! 🙂❤📚

[@shawnieadams1319]

That was really fun, Gav! 😍 Thanks to everyone who shared their bookshelves and provided inspiration!

[@Pondemonium89]

😂😂😂 these are so funny ❤❤ 13:36 I kinda want a sequel now to see if some bookshelves can redeem themselves / up their rating 😂😂😂

[@zoeh179]

Can’t believe you referred to MYST as a “random CD” 😭 It is an iconic and genre defining pc cd-rom game from the early 90s! And it has a big idea focussed around books.

[@jessicaw1839]

These videos are so much fun!! I hope you keep doing more of this series. 💜

[@erikareading]

I think you get the best bookshelves submitted to you. No wonder you have trouble roasting them.

[@mikalareads]

I LOVEEEE these videos! Especially the idea to make it a "toast " instead of a roast...I kind of think a toast is actually more fun too!!! 🙌💯👏⭐️

[@darthnaida]

Those books are not supporting my chair, thank god 😂 a bit embarrassing how much bigger the pile of books on the floor has gotten since I sen this picture 😅

[@lae164]

Ahhh so glad you roasted mine!! I feel like I need a re-roast because I finally got a new bookshelf so it’s all organised now 😂😂 Tiktok was sending me crazy amount of books and I had nowhere to put them 😂😂😂

[@catiedubya]

Love the roasting as per usual, but I have to know, WHERE did you get that sweater?

[@rhyswillis1122]

"I'm now drinking whenever I feel despair" made me snort! Haha

[@bridgetvollmer6337]

Love the roasting of Lae's book shelves lol.

[@meloveschocolate]

Im sure you'd roast my bookshelves, they don't deserve your kindness lol

[@PokhrajRoy.]

I will be forever grateful to you for roasting my bookshelves. I attached a note to my submissions to make things clear but it didn’t reach you. Could’ve saved a bit of roasting. This series is fun 👏🏽

[@legacyfilms4278]

the love for heartstopper is great

[@unuslupus-csa]

Just stumbled here from Greene's content, happy to have found you! Subbed and looking forward to more!

[@avsambart]

Proper adult fantasy reader here too but I love all your content!

[@AwkwardBookworm]

Natalie’s chair looks so cute 🥹

[@caspiansvensson]

The judgement! 🤣 As someone with NO manga, I feel like my shelves would be worth nil. I will never send in pictures for this. But I love the roast though.

[@jessicabridges4335]

You don't want to see mine. I don't want to see mine! 😂😂😂 I will be getting a -10/10...

[@meowlo-the-mood-reader]

WAIT the UK Fruitsbasket editions are colorful??? I'm so glad I hadn't jumped on collecting them yet because I'd be so sad to have started getting the US editions only to learn that. "if you possibly can...get rid of them" xD

[@BecxReadz]

😂😂😂I'll take the 7/10 nonmoist bookshelf. I honestly couldn't tell you how those Shelves were organized back in June either. Thanks for roasting my shelves ❤

[@ExLibrisMara]

Omg I need you to roast mine now😂 but these were amazing

[@joseeshelf]

i used to have cute shelfs until my cat dived head first, behind the corner shelf. lol damn goku ( my orange tabby), I had to stop having a corner one lol , now i only have 2 full-size Billy bookshelf, and my tiny billy bookshelf diffrent corner of my room :P

[@holdenbeach4ever]

I was going to read my first Cassandra Clare book in December, but now you have me rethinking it 🤔

[@whitelikeblack1241]

Okay there were some roasts in this one, but also they were also really asking for it XD all in good fun!

[@libraryofjonna]

thanks for the roast! my shelves are definitely a mess because of the lack of space and the low ceiling in my room. I'm moving soon so am looking forward to having proper bookshelves then✨(also I have finished a little life hahah)

[@fishbowlwoman]

This one kind of felt like Gavin Bookshelf Help with lots of great suggestions.

[@kalypsowolf1608]

I would be read to filth. Up until literally 2 days ago my bookcase was just a very large box on the floor. And the bookcases I have now are second-hand and slightly damaged lol

[@BlackCatBritt]

lol btw Gavin; the TV show Supernatural also had a series of books. I've read two or three and theyre surprisingly not terrible.

[@reneeelich4893]

Gavin: I can't roast five minutes later: This is a little shit hole... 🤣the new channel name seemed to free you up! I love this!

[@courtneyposey924]

Love the video! I always like seeing other people's shelves. But what happened to this NOT being a bookshelf roast? lol

[@AshleyRebecca]

I really like the new orientation of the camera angle! Fun video!

[@LozzfrmOz]

These videos give me inspiration to work on my own bookshelves. Such a dilemma trying to categorise by genre, author, colour 🤔😁 Pet peeve☝️ When authors randomly change the size of books in the middle of a series 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@selmasjournal2155]

This video inspired me to re-organize mu bookshelf 😊

[@morganarosana]

Helen wardrobe-bookshelf gave me nightmares

[@MadamGojira]

My shelf was so sad 💀 idk if a toast is warranted.

[@shainav3326]

Helen. We should be friends. I never see Tudor related HF on peoples shelves.

[@dascoopz]

I don't know about everyone else but Gavin makes me want to try presseco. 😊

[@kathryncalderon]

I wanna do mine so bad 😭

[@rhino1876]

You would roast mine since it’s a deep shelf and a total mess.

[@mintyxx1]

I LOVE your roasts/toasts! Honestly, I would just like to submit my shelves so I can have your opinion. It would be an honor for my shelves to grace your page! And I feel like I'm not alone in that sentiment. So keep on being your fantastic self! ❤

[@frodossweetie]

❤Gavin you are my Spirit Animal❤

[@abbyshabbby]

Omg you should totally read Kingdom Keepers! I love that series so much! just a quick PSA the author is currently comminh out with rewrites of the og series to "fit the look of the disney parks today" becasue it terms of how it describes the disney parks is hella dated (it was first published in like 2000 or something) but the ogs are so much better and longer than the rewrites so I would recomend trying to find the old versions if you are going to read them. or maybe you could do something where you read both versions and discuss the diffrences? and the spin off series called The Return is about the mcs in college and I really enjoyed that too!!

[@angelaholmes8888]

I do have a ranking when it comes to buffy 1. Season 5 2. Season 2 3. Season 3 4. Season 6 5. Season 1 6. Season 7 7. Season 4

[@brittanywaynestilphen4685]

Please check out sent to a fantasy land and all the men want me by Jaclyn Osborne! there's 2 of the series out so far and they are soo good! That and Shannon Maes Demonic Disasters and afterlife adventures! Oh and if you want something super super dirty and kinky and OMG so so good Last Courtesan of Olympus by Amanda Meuwissen. These are all MM or MMMM books all very explicit and some TW in them but oh so so so so delightful and delicious.

[@tdfortune9118]

I love these videos! I am dying for you to roast/toast my shelves..... please! I didn't' submit in the first round, cause I didn't know. But I want to now!!! :)

[@bookthoughtswitheilish]

Brittany’s shelves are beautiful!

[@mahuadey2161]

when are u gonna read berserk

[@chariotmoon]

does anyone else keep crystals as bookshelf decorations???

[@erinasarutobi2206]

A little heads up if you want to read Lonely castle in the mirror, I just finished reading it last weekend and my only advice is to avoid the audiobook! Honestly i felt underwhelmed by the whole thing, mainly because i feel like its a manga or anime but written in a novel format instead and the translation makes some dialogues and scenes cringier than if i watched the movie. Like i barely felt any of the strong emotions the author is trying to convey due to the translation writing style and the whole audiobook is around 12 hours long while the anime movie is just 2 hours! i know descriptions of the places definitely cut down the time of course but i really felt that 10 hours difference 😭💔

[@Brettscartoons]

Why not make *book shelf crimes* like 1. No rainbow books. 2. No slappy goosebumps Ect Stuff you personally are not fond of Each time a crime is committed you do the shot of shame (Prosecco or something) while shaming the owner Might be funny… could even do a three part episode like *too many spirits * and by the last episode, your tipsy and less sugar coaty I dunno 😂 my ideas are weird

[@helzbelle13]

Oh Gavin, every time you said you couldn’t roast a bookshelf in your previous 2 videos, I just kept saying “wait till you see mine!” 🫣 My issue is that I love books and I love collecting books, but I live out of only 2 rooms, so I don’t have room for the books 😂😭

[@honestlyholly7657]

you need one shelf rather than 4 smaller ones, the sides are taking up too much room!

[@magical.chapters]

Thanks for the roast/toast, I honestly forgot about submitting these 🙈 Kinda wish you would have had more current pictures, because I do have quite a few more manga now, like all the volumes of One Piece among other things 🤭 Also there's just no place on my shelves where Heartstopper looks good, they are actually pretty cute sitting on their own little table. 🥹 And I mainly go for the German manga editions, since they are easier and cheaper for me to get - so I guess I'll just have to live with these editions of Fruits Basket 🤭
