My son would love that Frozen jewelry box!!! He loves Olaf and all the frozen movies/shorts. And I need that Book of Shadows replica for my self

[@JessicaRoseReads]

It was great to finally see your entire collection Gavin! There was so much nostalgia seeing the Goosebumps, Roald Dahl, Charmed and old Jacqueline Wilson books! I'm really looking forward to seeing your thoughts on The Poppy War and the new freaky horror book you hauled in your last video! and oh my gosh you have the Fringe box sets!! I'm such a diehard fangirl for the show, I've never known anyone else to have seen it!

[@GavinReadsItAll]

JessicaRose yay thanks for watching, I love the nostalgia trips myself! And I LOVED Fringe all the way to the end, didn’t think I would enjoy it but it was one of the first sci-fi shows I ever tried and just fell in love. Ugh, why did it have to go, but also it ended at the right time I think.

[@astellus]

Man those game of thrones leatherbounds are freaking cool. I have a book club original copy (just like a music warehouse club like Colombia House CD club...geez I just aged myself) but because I got it when I was like 14, I read it waaaaaaay too early and felt so badass reading it.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Mellissa Ann you SHOULD feel badass for reading it early! Got to it before the hype.

[@BeccaandTheBooks]

25:15 Tower of Dawn was supposed to be a Novella that ended up being a full installment in the series. It's told from the perspective of a different character

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Ahhh I see, I see, sounds different and hopefully I'll like it

[@smallgirl707]

@@GavinReadsItAll I feel like everyone hates Tower of Dawn but it's my favourite one! #unpopularopinion

[@BarbieandKensWorld]

I love your blue and purple fairy lights, that’s sexy🌸 That frozen jewelry box is awesome and I was indeed singing right along and got in my zone. I am a Disney fanatic😍I have Buffy and charmed, and true blood as well. You got me now about to go out and create my charmed shelf and get the books cuz I just have all the series on dvd 📀 love your collection my love 😍

[@cryingaboutbooks]

“tbh I don’t want season 8” I WAS LITERALLY GOING TO ASK 😂 such a lovely tour gav 💕

[@GavinReadsItAll]

cryingaboutbooks hahaha I know what the people wanna know 😂😂 and thanks for watching 💙

[@BeccaandTheBooks]

9:02 I used to get the charmed magazine and every issue had pages for the Book of Shadows so you could string them together and make your own 😂

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Becca and The Books OMG I GOT THAT TOO!! And I was in 2 of the issues as well!! I’ll have to hunt them down and show you.

[@BeccaandTheBooks]

@@GavinReadsItAll Omg do it

[@caenerys]

that Mary Poppins umbrella thing is seriously awesome! jealous!

[@channelaroundthecorner382]

Your shelves are stunning Gavin and I love the mix of genres, I can see so many of my favourites hidden in there 👌🤗 lovely 😊

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Channel Around The Corner aw thank you and glad you could spot similar books, means we both have great taste haha

[@channelaroundthecorner382]

You are definitely a man of taste Gavin and I love the variety of books you buy and read, absolute Legend!!! Told you, you’re the pagemaster 😂🥰

[@arashikawai]

Wow you have a nice DVD/Bluray and book collection! I have lots of books as well but not a lot of space for them. So I couldn't do a Bookshelf tour LOL. BTW, finished "My Best Friend's Exorcism". 3 out of 5 stars. It was not bad, but not my favorite either. A huge hug from Barcelona!

[@GavinReadsItAll]

arashikawai thanks a lot, I do love films just as much as I love books ❤️

[@BeccaandTheBooks]

10:33 Give Yourself Goosebumps were my FAVE

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Becca and The Books I liked the interactiveness of it but I was an original series all the way kind of guy

[@kjandherbooks]

Love love love the Charmed shelf 😍 and all the Disney stuff! So amazing 🙌

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Kayla Jane hehe thank you so much, I am obsessed 😂

[@kathernandez28]

I love Charmed!!!! Such a good show, I really need to watch them again soon. You have so many books! Thanks for the showing all of your movies and books 👌🏼🥰. Also, that’s so awesome that you’ve self published! 😁🎉

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Katherine Hernandez thanks Katherine!! Charmed was amazing wasn’t it? Miss it so much but I end up watching episodes every now and then.

[@kathernandez28]

Gavin Hetherington it was my favorite show when I was like 10 😂. And I wanted to be just like them lol

[@bri1474]

Will you make a separate video about your 4k blurays, blurays, and dvds? It's hard to see them all.

[@CharlesHeathcote]

There was one summer as a teenager when I visited the library every day to take out Charmed books. Now, I couldn't even remember which ones I read, but lord, they were compulsive. (I never got past episode two of the reboot.) Quite interesting to see how you've chosen to display your books. My bookcases currently aren't being kind to me, and every day I fear I'll arrive home to find they've collapsed. Great video :D

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Charles Heathcote I’m the same with the reboot of Charmed, I gave it a shot but I couldn’t do it. I wanted to give it a chance but, it didn’t work. I love the original too much. And haha I hope your shelves don’t collapse but I feel your struggle!

[@ElyseReadsandSpeaks]

R.L Stine used to be a client at the animal hospital I worked at years ago. I fangirled hard and squealed when I realized we had the same breed of dog lol

[@TheChockychops]

You should totally read the Skullduggery Pleasant series. It's very good 😊

[@laurenb008]

I love your bookshelves and the stories you have for them

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Lauren Bateman thanks so much Lauren!

[@graceelizabeth1299]

Skulduggery pleasant is amazing!!

[@jamieinbookland8013]

Great shelf tour for a nice overview of all the books in you’re collection. You could always do shelf by shelf over time if you wanted to go into more detail about certain shelves or books. I’m gonna guess 19 candles with the battery operated ones included.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

JamieinBookland I’ll most likely do that next time when I get better shelves and a better set up 😂

[@graceelizabeth1299]

I love charmed! My mum and I used to watch it a lot

[@fayealexandria9036]

You have some Darren Shan and the edge chronicles!!! 😍 😱 😍

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Faye Alexandria but where are the rest of the Darren Shan 😭😭 lost forever!! I need to rebuy them!

[@fayealexandria9036]

I just got around to buying the zom-b series and they're on my tbr for August!

[@jmbogert1]

This was entertaining and you have a great collection! Personally I love a more casual, chatty tour since I can’t be bothered to listen to each book and author read out 💁🏼‍♀️

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Jensen same!! I figured you guys could just pause if you wanna see every book on the shelf. Wish I’d talked about some more of them but I’m glad you enjoyed 😄

[@swedish_malin]

Great tour! I've been curious about what's on those (apparently not so stable) shelves of yours. I gasped when you mentioned being friends with Vic James, I love the Dark Gifts series!! The last one, Bright Ruin, is one of my favourite reads this year. Can't wait for Sanctuary, which I pre-ordered a while ago. I found my way here from Codie's channel about a month ago but this is my first time commenting. :) / Malin, Sweden

[@GavinReadsItAll]

malinwvw thanks so much! Aw yeah we both wrote on Wattpad years back and then we met in New York in 2016 for WattCon, she was running it and I was on a panel, she was so so awesome! Gonna give the books a read soon.

[@reginad91]

Your bookshelves look so great! 😊 and i think i counted 10 grace&honey candles 😁🕯

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Regina D aw thank you so much! I actually need to do an official count when I get home haha

[@prisperuses]

Looooove it! So much goodness! We understand each other. I have 600+ books. Did I read them all? No. Do I need them all? No. BUT IT LOOKS SO NICE 😂❤️

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Prissewis and her books hahaha looks SOOO NICE!!! You got that right. Ahh, the life of a book collector amiright?

[@moonbook12]

11 real candle 3 plastic one Toal 14 It was fun to play a game while you doing the bookshelf tour

[@susanmcalister2880]

Book collection envy!!!!! Amazing

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Aw thanks Susan!

[@confuzzledbev3862]

I had forgotten how much I like the Charmed theme tune! Wow, there are a lot of Goosebumps books. I didn't realise there were that many. I've got 2 of those books that put you in the story- one where I meet Father Christmas and one where I go on a picnic with a talking cat. My grandparents got me them when I was little. I hate it when my series books are different sizes. I bought about three copies of the last book in the "Tomorrow" series by John Marsden until I eventually got the right one! How many of your friends have books out? Seems like a lot. I'm jealous of all your author friends. Lol. I really liked this tour. It's way more interesting than when people literally pull out every single book. I liked the way you just pointed out a few.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Confuzzled Bev thanks so much, and yeah I didn’t want to point out every single book, it gets tedious 😂 next time I’ll try and be more informative as well, maybe talk more about some of the books. And I have a few author friends haha a few more on my shelves as well but I didn’t point all of them out - see I’m thinking about things I could have done better already 😂

[@paperstars9078]

I notice some Skulduggery Pleasant books on the shelf! Are there any videos where you talk about the books or the series or the author? Any pointers are appreciated!

[@Amyduckie]

Omg! You have so many books you don't like! So many lovely books. Tower of Dawn is the second last (the sixth) book in the series, but it takes place at the same time as the fifth book. It was actually my favourite out of the whole series. I definitely recommend you give it a go. You have thirteen candles, I'm going to guess- I didn't include the electrical ones, just the legit ones. Hope that's right. Lol. As far as how you filmed it, you did a really good job, I thought. I'm not a youtuber, so I have no idea what goes into these sorts of videos, but I quite enjoyed it. :D

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Amy Woods aw glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for the heads up about Tower of Dawn, I’ll definitely get around to reading the series at some point ❤️

[@rasaslase]

You are making me rewatch Charmed, :D The Book of Shadows looks amazing.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

rasaslase /Liene Reads/ YAY Charmed is such a great show to binge watch 💙

[@rasaslase]

@@GavinReadsItAll Yes! I can agree. I haven`t watched it in ages because i don`t have it. But i remember loving it when it was on TV.

[@rasaslase]

@@GavinReadsItAll Yes. I wish i could watch it, but i don`t own it. I remember loving it when it was on TV.

[@BeccaandTheBooks]

9:47 I think I've read them all too. And the Buffy ones 😅

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Becca and The Books i read some Buffy ones but always got them from the library, I may try to collect them!

[@liajustlia2250]

I'm here for the glorious middle grades

[@10barnfarm]

As soon as I see your video pop up, it’s an automatic choice.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

The Boho Fox not all heroes wear capes, THANK YOU 😭

15:30 YASSSS Alphabetically is the only acceptable way to organise books

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Anyone who does it any different is a heathen

[@astellus]

Also, you were in Canada? Nifty!

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Mellissa Ann Toronto in 2017, then Toronto again and Ottawa, Kitchener, Waterloo in 2018 😄 LOVE Canada 🇨🇦

[@astellus]

@@GavinReadsItAll I've lived in both Toronto and Ottawa. I miss Ottawa the most.

[@Pearlxox]

Would you recommend Percy Jackson? (You’re my go-to for middle grade recs now 😂) I tried to start it years ago but wasn’t feeling it.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Pearl first time I read the first book I wasn’t feeling it either, but got into it the more I went along, but I never read the rest and it’s something I’m trying to rectify this year or next year!

[@annielawrence2067]

Oooh have you read any of the Rivers of London series? What do you think? My eldest wrote her first essay at high school last year on the kissing booth! :) They all had to choose whatever they wanted.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Annie Lawrence I haven’t actually read any River of London but I got the first and then that hardback one signed, but I am interested in reading it! Also aw bless your eldest, I bet she wrote a great essay.

[@annielawrence2067]

@@GavinReadsItAll I'm on book 3. The other half has discovered audiobooks and he's finished the series. I've heard parts of the audio books and the guy who does it is great! Awww she's quite dyslexic so tried her best and any reading she does is a bonus but she actually really enjoyed that homework assignment :)

[@scarlett9231]

Omg my mom got me one of self-insert Alice in Wonderland books when I was a kid! I thought I was sooo cool because my name was in a book! 😂

[@_rachel_bookishwonderland]

OMG! That replica of the Book of Shadows 😍😍 where did you get it? I am so so jealous!! Charmed is my all time favourite series 💖

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Rachel Gunter Aw thanks, and it’s my all time fav series too! I got it from a site called “Prescott Manor” but it was shut down earlier this year and I’m gutted because I was saving for a full size BOS replica which was like £600 but I wanted it for years, and then they closed 😭 they had other replica objects as well like scrying crystals, which I have one somewhere but I can’t find it anymore 😭

[@_rachel_bookishwonderland]

Gavin Hetherington aww that’s such a shame! I’m gutted! 😭 I’ll have to go back to my childhood method of making my own copy 😂😂 the full size replicas look amazing though 😍
