I Have to Like My Friends’ Favourite Books or I Unsubscribe from Their Channel 📚 Episode 1

[@wronggeometry]

Hi Gavin, very recent subscriber here. We have almost no overlap in book taste, I have been binging your videos coz of you, your personality and creativity. It's horrible to see you being upset. Many booktubers (and other youtubers) go without talking about the upsetting stuff but I think sometimes pressure to appease commenters shows through and that is sad. I think it's brave of you to be so open about it. When people are mean online it almost invariably means they are unhappy in their own life - obviously, that does not make it ok and doesn't make it hurt less for the recipient - just remember that ANYONE'S opinion on you is just that, one opinion, and it does not define who you are. You are clearly very loved. From what I've seen from your channel and seeing you in other people's videos, you are a maker and multiplier of joy and laughter for countless people. I think that's a gift and you are special for it.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Aw thank you so much. I'm doing better at ignoring the comments. I confronted someone who kept doing it with fake accounts who has been harassing me for 2 years now, and I feel better for finally confronting my bully. Let's hope it's the end of it now they know I know it's them ❤

[@wronggeometry]

@@GavinReadsItAll that sounds horrible, well done for confronting them 👏❤

[@Dhor16]

Beautifully said. Agree with every single word. Thank you for formulating my exact thoughts and feeling better than I could have

[@lady_stardiver]

I second this. Gav you’re amazing! You’re a bright light in the dark horrific world we live in and I’m happy you have been a huge part of my life. I will pray for your peace and strength. You got this love ❤️

[@chrism-d1493]

Hi Gavin. I've been watching your videos for over a year, but never commented before. It must be hard reading negative comments about yourself, but just know that for every negative view there are 1000 silent watchers loving your videos. You bring light and laughter to my life, please keep it up!

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Thank you so much Chris ❤

"In a café full of dogs I was not expecting one of them to bark." My life in Gavin quotes.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

It was a bigger plot twist than anything that happened in The Burning Girls 👀

[@wolfme4030]

Love the fact that you’re holding up Malice right in front of a hardback copy of Malice on your bookshelf!!!

[@krispy.reading]

“An ambush later on, … , blew my t!ts off” “And now I want to read everything Booked and Busy has read & loved, and rename my channel Booked and Bu$$y” Omg hilarious. You’re great, Gav. Thanks for making us laugh in multiple videos. Happy reading! censored words in case of yt comment guidelines, not sure how sensitive or strict it is. I’m just quoting Gav.

[@aspiring_recluse]

I love how you’re surprised at having already read 83 books like you’ve repressed the memory of binging the entirety of Animorphs like a month ago. You are absolutely entitled to your emotions and you are so beloved in this community! I hope you can remember that next time ignorant commenters gets you down ❤️❤️❤️

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Hahaha I keep forgetting I read Animorphs this year, it honestly feels like longer 😂 Thank you so much for the kind words!

[@haleighe.walthall6069]

You are such an underrated booktuber. This is one of the hardest sections of KZbin to work in and understanding the hard and difficult times are important. I enjoy watching your videos when I’m feeling down and even though I don’t have similar book feelings, I love seeing your perspective.

[@kimcolson7181]

Dont let anyone take your shine. We love and respect you on so many levels. I will be more than happy to punch someone for you

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Kim, I love you, maybe more than I love Katie (but don't tell her that haha) ❤

[@kimcolson7181]

@@GavinReadsItAll It will be our secret. But dont ever let me hear you call yourself stupid again

[@aliciafaithreads]

Gavin, you are such a ray of sunshine. You make the best content. You are so creative. I know it’s hard to shake negativity but you have so many people who truly love you. You also inspire people to read outside of what they would normally read-my boyfriend bought Dick Fight Island the other day because of you! 🥰😂

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Thank you so much, and I am SO glad you got Dick Fight Island haha I truly hope you love it 😂

[@KristinKravesBooks]

Thank you for speaking about the comments. It's funny how we can have a ton of positive comments but it's the one hateful one that stays with us. The fact that you have so many connections with so many fellow booktubers should tell you how others see you! Do I need to read Malice? It's so outside of my comfort zone but I'm always curious when someone talks about it.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Exactly, the negative ones can really stick with us, even when they're just filled with unnecessary nastiness. And Malice was a slog to get through to begin with, so if you can get through the first half, you'll be absolutely fine!

[@gabbyreads]

This is such a fun video series!!! I love the way you edited it together too it looks so awesome 😍 and omg Gavin, it hurts my heart so much to see you upset. Please don’t let the stupid trolls get to you, you’re so amazing and creative and loving!! I adore you so much 💕

[@CDPanda1111]

I've only watched a few of your videos and I think you come across as a great guy who makes funny book videos because you want to make people laugh and enjoy reading. Happy you were able to vent and come back swinging in this vlog!

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Thank you for the kind words, I really appreciate it ❤

[@ahhjalpenfrukt4930]

I feel the "First time going" anxiety! I've never had to guts to go somewhere new by myself. I always bring a friend and they order for me so that I see the process. Only after that can I return alone lmao

[@GavinReadsItAll]

I sooooo relate to this!! I very very rarely try someone new and I surprised myself for doing it last week at that coffee shop, but I was in desperate need of a pick me up so I had no choice haha. But glad I'm not the only one ❤

[@xXMusicMixxiXx]

Ditt namn 😂

[@SchullerkaMCR]

Haus of Holbein is a great start for the vlog (listening to Six on repeat was my life for 2 months straight in 2020)🤣 you never disappoint, Gavin 🤣

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Why did it take me so long 😭to be fair I had a ticket booked for Six in 2020 but it got delayed cause of the lockdown, otherwise I think I would have been obsessed with Six in 2020 too, now I'm making up for lost time haha

[@littlelemoncurd6191]

Gavin you are so fucking hilarious. Even when I don’t care about the book you’re reading, I just adore watching your videos because you make me laugh.

[@readingwithlaurence4773]

I’m so sorry you are having a hard time🥺you make some of the best content on here, you are so creative don’t focus on the negative. I feel like I need to give Malice a second try now, I DNF it at 100 pages or so, but you are making me want to give it another shot!

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Thank you so much ❤

[@ReadingNymph]

So glad you liked Malice, it's such a great series. Middlegame sounds super interesting 🤔 It's good to vent those feelings, just remember you are 1000% valid, your channel is always my go to knowing I'll always be laughing at the end of it

[@TheDarthPinkie]

You have convinced me to get and read Middle Game. It sounds perfect for my husband and myself to read together. ❤ Big thanks to Mel, too!

[@steelcutoaths3033]

If people are leaving rude comments on your videos, then that says more about them than you. And it doesn't say anything positive about them. You're a joy to watch. ❤️

[@tracyhoverson8294]

I’m reading Malice and I’m around the 200 page mark. I found your video and appreciate your thoughts on this book so much as I’m struggling a bit. I’m enjoying it, but it’s slow. I’m going to persevere and keep going. Wish me luck!

[@craftyphi5823]

Awww Gavin don't feel bad about yourself or worry about how you come across! I don't watch much tv at all so your videos probably make up about 75% of my overall tv time 😂 You make me laugh and I love how honest and natural you are. Watching your videos feels like hanging out with a friend! Keep smiling 💖🦄🐉🌻

[@thathermitlife]

You’re an absolute diamond and you bring so much heart, creativity and personality to everything you do. I think most of your viewers (including us lurkers) see that. Unfortunately, the world is full of ball bags more interested in tearing people down than contributing anything of substance to the world. Just remember you’re surrounded by people who value you for everything that you are - that support is what will get you through the crappy moments. Keep doing your thing! 💖

[@FrankieEm]

I sat down to watch this for a little while and ended up not even noticing the hour had passed. You are a very captivating KZbinr. I appreciate your hard work and creativity! Thanks for all you bring to this community!

[@GhostyFrogs]

This was a lot of fun! I’m really excited for the next batch of people!!

[@rootingbranches]

I'm so sorry that everything is getting too much. Even if your subscription count isn't as high as other creators you watch, you have the most loving and kind comment section on YT. People viewers mirror the creator. You are not stupid. You're a sunshine and especially with the past few years, you've undoubtedly saved people's sanity with your content. When I'm feeling really low, I rewatch your Support Sprints and it helps. You are one of the only creators who make the viewer feel not alone, your videos always feel like a catch up. You're a friend. Sending you all the love.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

I agree, the incredible people in the comments and who come to the live shows are always so beautiful and amazing. Thank you for reminding me of that ❤

[@oneeyewitch]

Your update during was heartbreaking. I am so sorry people treat you like that. You have me laughing and smiling every video you make. Do not hide that side of you the crying days and happy days are apart of everyones life and you never need to hide this

[@blackraven7774]

Have I have been watching your vids for almost 2 years and I can say you are incredibly intelligent, creative, generous and gorgeous human being. The world is a less lonely and cruel place for me because your videos exist in my realm. Peace, love and joy from me to you 😄🌷🌟💜

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Aw wow you've stuck by me for so long, thank you I appreciate it ❤

[@KellyCrayon]

When I hit the 19 minute mark in the video I just wanted to reach out and give you a big hug. Don't ever forget that negative opinions, while they stick out in your mind so much more than the positive ones, are fleeting and come from those insecure in themselves. So many more people care about you and love what you do.

[@jessiecampbell2100]

Gavin, you are my favorite booktuber!! Keep being the wonderful you that you are and forget about the people who don’t matter!!!!

[@sarahteter6310]

YAY! So glad you got around to MiddleGame and enjoyed it! It's one of my all-time favorites and I feel like a lot of people hear good things but put it off because of the synopsis being a bit confusing, but the story itself isn't that hard to follow.

[@jkpiowa]

My life and my bookshelf have gotten better since finding your channel. Thank you for continually making such great content!

Thank you so much Jessica ❤though I bet your bank account hates me haha

I'm sorry to see you upset and sending love to you x

Hi Gavin! I'm a new subscriber and I'm so glad I found your channel. Please don't let the negativity get you down. Your joy is literally contagious in your videos and such a comfort. I'm so excited to binge your videos, especially the spooky ones because I live for the spooky vibes! Continue to do you.

[@ChattieTheMadChatter]

16:00 - adding the burning girls to my list as I am always keen to find a Thriller that I love. But I am the MOST excited about Malice! Just read the whole Quartet and I lived it. I hope you have a great time with this book.

Omg I just started the video and the floating heads on the contestants bodies has me SCREAMING 😂 🤣😂🤣

Omg, Gavin my heart. You are amazing and worthy of all emotions and feelings that you have. I have never met you, but I feel like I know you and you come across always as an intelligent, approachable and hilarious person. Wanted to let you know you are loved and cared about.❤️❤️❤️ Mean people suck, they just do.

[@alicefacey6571]

I love watching your videos! I actually don’t watch many other book tubers because they don’t compare to the fun and funny content you put up! I started really getting into these kinds of videos after I lost my dad because I needed something to take my mind off life. You are a ray of sunshine and I always tell my partner how I would love you as a best friend! Chin up chick! Xxx

[@kasashaasreadingjournal3446]

You are one of if not my current fav KZbinr. You are so quirky and creative and this big ball of happy fun energy and you always draw me in. You are doing such a great job and watching your videos is a highlight of my days. Keep on doing you and keep on being you.

[@maddieperrine6533]

Only been subscribed for a couple months but you’ve made my love of books come back just with your energy and passion. I started reading middle grade because of you and I am grateful for the addition to my life! When I get anxious or stressed Ive been binge watching your videos. Remember that you’re making a positive impact on the world and individuals with what you do!

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Aw thank you so much Maddie and I’m so glad I could help you get your love of books back, it means the world to me 💙

[@anikamercier2651]

Aw, you made me so sad when you got sad. Don’t pay attention to haters you’re awesome and not stupid you’re wonderful anyone can see that. Hugs 🤗

[@avsambart]

19:00 What happened?! Are you okay? *big hugs* So glad you enjoyed all the books! And I really enjoyed this!

[@ClumsyCharlott]

Seeing you so upset broke me. It must have been difficult to share that since you always come across as so incredibly positive and happy, but I really appreciate you sharing that too. You bring so much joy to so many people and we KNOW what a smart, intelligent, and wonderful human being you. It is difficult to ignore the bad comments but jus know what the community that YOU created, the community that YOU bring so much joy to, the community that LOVES YOU will always have your back. You're one of the best people out there and if someone doesn't see that it's honestly their loss.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Thank you so much ❤sometimes it's nice to show I'm not 100% happy all the time, so thank you for letting me be vulnerable for a moment 🥰

[@ginakennett4051]

I never get tired of your videos. You always make me excited to try new books. I am so glad there's people out there that enjoy books as much as we do as well. I was quite sad when you were sad and I hope you know you are of value.

[@Alex18630]

You're such an amazing person Gavin! You're so funny and creative and are always a joy to watch! Was in a two year long reading slump and finding your channel back in December got me back into reading and I am so so thankful for that. You have such entertaining ideas and videos and I'm so glad I found your channel

[@GavinReadsItAll]

So glad you found me and I could help you out of the reading slump! Really appreciate your kind words ❤

[@kirstie8344]

Gavin, sending so much love your way!! Ugh, that bit where you got emotional made me so sad. Honestly, I’m not the only one, I know, who thinks highly of you because of all the smiles and laughs you bring to so many people. I really just want to hug you and tell you that you are such a great person and have so many people that love and support what you do!! 💚💚 I just feel like you’re so genuine, down to earth, and hilarious. I myself am usually a goofy and never serious person so to see your videos, it just reminds me of me and my best friend. I just can’t say enough how much you are loved. Me and my best friend, Frank, say that if you only lived in America, we’d make room for a 3rd best friend. 😂💚 Take care Gav 🤗

[@GavinReadsItAll]

Ok but tell Frank I may end up taking you both up on that offer 👀thank you so much Kirstie, I appreciate you and your kind words so much ❤

[@valkyrie794]

I know this video is from a while ago so I dont know if you will even see this, but you being sad about comments broke my heart and I wanted to tell you. You are literally one of my comfort booktubers. I put your videos on when I'm sick or sad or just down in the dumps because you're so fun and creative and interesting and you genuinely make me smile again when I feel like I cant. So forget whoever is saying dumb stuff to you because for every one of them there are a ton of people like me who come to you to honestly get us through the day sometimes. There has never been another person that I wish I could be friends with so bad.

[@GilmarGirl]

Hey Gavin, it's been a long time since I was as excited to read a book as I am now with Middlegame. The premise hooked me immediately and you talking about it sold me even more. Seanan Mcguire's other books are really calling out to me too, and I have never heard of her before, so I probably wouldn't have found her on my own. Thanks for giving me a new potential favorite book and author! :)

[@susanlynknits]

This was so much fun, I loved it. I hate what people's comments sometimes do to you and I'm sure others but you showing that is really amazing. For what it's worth, we've never met but I've spent hours with you, we've laughed, I've picked up books you've recommended, I've responded unconsciously when we agree actually talking like a crazy person to my phone. Your channel is wonderful and so many people, myself included, come here to escape from the world. Please never stop being you. Now I'm off to request Middlegame from the library yet again, I've returned it at least 3 times unread but you've inspired me to give it a try. Thanks!

[@emmal7510]

Iirc, Seanan McGuire decided the best way to explain Middlegame to her agent was to write it and send it to them. In case you weren't aware, Over the Woodward Wall also has been published.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

To be fair, I'm so not surprised Seanan McGuire did that haha

[@andromeduh4145]

I know negative comments suck but for every one bad comment, there are 10 people who absolutely adore you. You're so funny and positive and I'm honestly so thankful I stumbled upon your channel. I was dealing with terrible panic attacks for awhile and I can't even tell you how great your videos were for helping me get through them. Thanks for just being you. Screw the negative people. It says more about them than it does you.

[@roseofoulesfame]

Who are these rude people with no taste leaving negative comments on your videos Gav, how dare they quite frankly.

[@necromancerxoxo9906]

I've been dealing with some severe depression lately and you and a few others on booktube have kept me going with your videos. You cheer me up when I'm super low and I appreciate you and your channel. Thank you for helping keep me sane while I try to pick myself up. ❤

[@liveathousandlives9915]

Hey Gavin, I know this is coming a lot later, but Seeing you so sad makes me so sad. You are amazing! I love your channel and love you content! You bring such a beautiful soul to the world! You make me smile always! Love you!

[@YarnReader]

Gavin, my dear. You are an amazing human being. Those people who decided to show the nastiness of themselves are just some sad humans that do not deserve you in their lives.

[@miquesbookvlogs372]

THANK YOU for posting this. Feeling really bad from the booster side effects and this video has saved my evening 😋Gabby and I actually did a whole discussion on Burning Girls for her book club! I too gave it a 3.5 and was also quite confused about why a Jack Brooks had a woman narrator at first haha

[@callistoursus8300]

Hey Gavin ! this is my first time I comment on your channel and even though I've been subscribed for quite some time now you've been under my radar, I don't really know why, but last week (i guess because of bookopolathon) I was reminded of you and started watching your videos again, and let me tell you: I fell down the rabbithole! I've been stuck with the flu for over a week now and felt miserable, but binging your videos brought me so much joy! I love your ideas and your wittiness, your videos have quickly become comfort content for me. And even though l love your lightheartedness of course you are entitled to your emotions and I appreciate you being honest and vulnerable here. As many before me have said already, you are so very much loved and appreciated, and I am really thankful for your "company" (eventhough it's been parasocial so far lol)! I know, mean comments always stick out and linger in your head, but you need to always remember, that you are perfect as you are to so so many people! I just wanted to say it once more! love u, hope you're having a beautiful day ^-^ PS: I absolutely share your obsession with Six The Musical, reminds me I totally should listen to the album again. ^^

[@wandering0wonderland]

I'm sorry about what you've been going though online, I think it's great that you opened up and talked about it a bit. Hope things are going better for you, I think a lot of people watch your channel because you are always authentically yourself, it's very refreshing to see. Don't let anyone change that! 🖤

[@fantasyfangirl7620]

First of all I started watching you for your love of middle grade and helping me realize there is nothing wrong with loving them as an adult! Then over time I come here for the joy, your personality and when I'm feeling down YOU yourself make me laugh. Hate seeing you upset but thank you for opening up! I hope you feel better. I deal with alot of mean people working in er. Can't count the times I've been told I'm worthless because I can't give people the answers they want (I'm just a receptionist 😬) you said it already but surround yourself around the people who know and love you and don't let strangers suck you down! You have too much light to share!

[@teenathomas7057]

Sending you a virtual hug!!! I only watch a handful booktubers and you are one of them because you make me smile and are so real with your reviews!! While people out there can be awfully cowardly when posting comments, remember they don't define who you are and keep surrounding yourself with those who make you stronger. Keep posting content that make you happy 😊.

[@joyahawkrose3984]

I sometimes gave a harder time watching longer videos and h don’t always have the same reading taste as you, but I try my best to watch as many if your videos as possible because you are just one of my favorite KZbinrs and can bc always manage to brighten my day

I know you will have been told time and time again to not worry about peoples opinions etc but sometimes you really can’t help it, it does get you down, it happens to us all.

Hi Gavin. I'd just like to echo what others have said - you are a ray of sunshine here on booktube, an absolute delight. Don't let anyone make you feel like you're not exactly where you're supposed to be doing exactly what you're supposed to do. I'm glad you felt you could share with us how you're feeling.

Fantastic video Gav, I really enjoyed it and you have me putting middlegame on my borrow from the library list. It was in the "Not for me" book pile, but now I am excited to try it! Really looking forward to seeing who you pick next and what books are for them and seeing if anyone can knock a solid 9 new favourite off the list! This was so much fun - keep enjoying SIX and I hope you are tempted to pick up Valour soon. Malice is a set up book, so you have done all the hardworking, the next is payoff adventure galore I am so excited for you to see Corban's journey, and others which I won't say. Happy reading 📚 💜

[@chloemorley3781]

Gavin you are absolutely amazing!!! Don’t let anyone convince you otherwise! You are so lovely and people who have negative comments to say don’t deserve to watch your amazing content. You are not stupid, you’re smart and brilliant. (I know I’m late but I still wanted to say this.) You deserve all of the love and positivity in the world. You are not the negative comments about you. Those people don’t know what they’re talking about and I’m sorry you have to go through things like this.

[@books_with_clementine]

Hi Gavin, I just want to say that you should never change, your videos are amazing, and you should not be self-conscious about talking about your struggles sometimes! There will always be trolls who have too much time on their hands and feel better about themselves by putting others down… Be proud of what you have created with your channel and all the people who follow you and support you 🌈❤️ Am waiting for episode 2 in the coming months 😉

[@amalisreading]

I'm a fairly recent subscriber and I just want to say, I love your creativity in coming up with reading challenges. I also have just been loving your videos in general as I find them so cosy. I felt you with the nerves about going to the coffee shop, I get a bit nervous going to new places alone too - so I guess it's normal? I'm turning 30 in June and I still find weird how we can find people who share our interests and we can relate to online. Wish it was so easy in person! Keep up the good work :)

Just ignore the negative ppl Gav- your such a talented, humorous booktuber. Haters are gonna hate- jealous ppl are just insecure in themselves and they are going to hate ppl who are doing what they love in any case and who are good at what they do. The real fans of your channel myself included love you gav. I'm really glad that you enjoyed The burning girls as well as Malice. I need to read Valour soon

I know you got a lot of comments along the same line already but I just wanted to tell you that I love your videos. You have such a great energy and always make me smile. You are my go-to when I am feeling down. I hope you can focus on the positive comments, even though I know how bad the bad ones can hurt. That is all i wanted to say. Greetings from Germany :)

You. Are. Loved! Do not read hate. That’s an issue with them. Not you. You are you. That’s enough.

[@GavinReadsItAll]

I needed to hear that, thank you ❤

[@sarawithoutanH]

i'm so sorry the hate comments got you down for a bit! people online are really mean for no reason. my most popular upload from a few years ago had a lot of random comments about my appearance and i don't really understand how people feel comfortable saying that sort of thing to a stranger. also, i really enjoyed this vlog! i might have to try the CAWPILE method of rating because i often feel stumped on how to rate things.

I really enjoy your video's. You're AWESOME and don't let anyone make you think otherwise. Thank you for sharing the good and the bad and all the FUN! You bring so much JOY to a lot of people.💕

i don’t comment on videos a lot bc social anxiety 😂 but i absolutely adore your videos, gavin, and they have helped give me a lot of serotonin ❤️ i know it’s not easy to shake off the negativity, but your content is some of the funniest, most creative and unique stuff I’ve seen. sending you all the good vibes!!

[@amberhassen3706]

I just adore you and your channel. Your outlook on life just makes my heart happy. But just remember that it's okay to not be okay sometimes. Haters are going to hate and I know it's hard to not let them get to you. Keep doing you because I think you are wonderful

[@marieliaisla5646]

I love your content so much, they are my comfort videos

[@jamieserrano827]

Gavin you are awesome never doubt yourself just keep your head up keep doing what you’re doing you are a worthy human being

[@Rank.Roundup]

Why is it human nature to look past tons of positive opinions and focus on the handful of negative ones? I think it takes a really special kind of person to put yourself out there on the internet for anyone to critique. Negative comments will always be there. Try not to let them affect you because we love you and your content. 💜

come to London and lets hang out. You are a gem and full of light

[@jennysinger2130]

Hey Gav, you are amazing and anyone who treats you as less, is less. Good on you for being able to stand up for yourself and feel the feels as you need to. Just wanted to drop more support in your comments. 😊
