I Spent 7 Days Reading Cozy Books And Got HOOKED!

[@danteblack3249]

Been struggling with mental health for a while and thought reading books could be a good mindful way of coping with stress. Ive watched so many book recommendation videos but this one is by far the best. Im so glad i came across your channel, a truely amazing thing finding someone so real like you.

[@tirarosaurioreads]

I just discovered your channel and I became a fan instantly! love how authentic and transparent you are here, talking about the things the bookish community doesnt really talk about often.

[@BookishDadReads]

@@tirarosaurioreads awww thankyou so so much. That truly made me smile after iv just recorded a video about how toxic the book space online can be at times ❤️❤️

[@Alfred_51]

You have a great track on the books that turn up on your doorstep. Great to here you talk. Enjoy your reading and life

[@BookishDadReads]

[@Lisalouu]

This video was a rollercoaster, but in the best way. Love you the most 😊

[@BookishDadReads]

@@Lisalouu haha expect more of the same now that I'm starting to feel better ❤️

[@Lisalouu]

@BookishDadReads I'm glad your starting to feel better, keepnthe chaos coming!! X

[@Obsessive-reader]

I get so excited when you post a new video. You are so funny, you really brighten up my day 🤣🤣 I love the book recommendations too

[@BookishDadReads]

@@Obsessive-reader awww Vanessa thankyou so much that genuinely made me smile from ear to ear ❤️

[@Misterbrooks92]

Loving the videos you're absolute class! i've never been one to read romance but i've started part of your world & loving it, need to get yours truely on the ready! Love the singing btw Mulan is my all time fav disney film! 😆 Happy anniversary & hope you're feeling better soon mate 🙂

[@BookishDadReads]

@@Misterbrooks92 yesss love that your enjoying Abby Jimenez. I just find the books so easy to read. You wait, there's gonna be some Disney classics coming on future videos haha

[@StephTucker-hc8px]

I cannot tell you how happy it makes me to hear people say that they want to learn about minority experiences. As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, thank you ♥ I have genuinely given up on getting rid of the mould in our flat. After finding out they just paint over it, I swore I'd never do it again.

[@BookishDadReads]

@@StephTucker-hc8px awww you're very welcome. I think it's so important to accept that everyone is different but also try and learn how that can affect someone's life. I think the mould just adds character at this point haha

[@wibbleywoo]

Ohhhhhhh the emotional blackmail is real 🤣 24:24

[@tarrat3717]

What a great surprise: getting packages of books that you don’t remember ordering. Wow, I guess I’m not the only one who does that. Welcome to the club.

[@BookishDadReads]

@@tarrat3717 haha it right winds my wife up

[@roxymartin361]

Love you the most ❤❤ love your videos and so impressed you know so many Pocahontas songs 😂 xx

[@BookishDadReads]

@@roxymartin361 💗 thankyouuuu. More Disney songs incoming 😜

[@roxymartin361]

@BookishDadReads 😁😁💕💕 you're welcome. I look forward to more singing! Xx

[@bibliomania158]

Good to see you my friend! Those seem like a great set of books, it it that time of year where we can sit inside and cozy up with a great book 😊 You’re doing an amazing job 🎉

[@jessbaldwin]

I have only read the friend zone by Abby Jimenez. Need to read more of her books. x

[@BookishDadReads]

@@jessbaldwin I just find her books so lovely and easy to consume

[@scarlettmanfredi]

Yours truly, just for the summer etc are interconnected standalones, I’ve only read just for the summer but it makes sense by itself. I think some characters just crossover!🙌🏻

[@annebracher1843]

You’re bloody hilarious 😂. Love it 😂

[@Tales.andtea]

Book buying ban went well 🤣 just like me haha. But yes birthdays don’t count. Loved this

[@juliacharles4790]

Morning, glad you’re doing okay & hope you had a good birthday. You always make me smile and I’m so proud of you for trying to encourage books in schools too. The trainers comment made me laugh

[@danielleC1414]

Loving the new you 😂 had a chuckle watching this video. Yet again I need to go book shopping, if birthday buying doesn't count then I've only got to wait 3 weeks 📚

[@BookishDadReads]

@@danielleC1414 haha thanks Danielle. Birthday money definitely doesn't count 🤷

[@annebracher1843]

Happy Anniversary guys 🎉

[@maggyfrog]

try "things remembered and things forgotten" by kyoko nakajima. short story collection that's quite deceptively cozy but the stories are quite deep and introspective. if you haven't gotten into anything japanese yet, this one might be a little different in terms of mood and peculiar characters

[@EmilyJohnston-e2r]

Aupppp mate! Loved the singing you med me laff so much throughout this vid 😂 hope ya feel better soon! 🙏 you babble so much but im here for that honestly mate stay true to ursen! Your class! 👌 as always love ya the most! Sinnnnaaabbbiiitttt! P.s happy anniversary to you and ellie! 🫶🥳

[@MaynePoems]

Hope you feel better soon!

[@craftyhobbit7623]

We've found dehumidifiers help with the mould, and a good mould killer - you have to nuke the mould every three - four months, but it does help.

[@victoriabreen9082]

Haha I literally had the same debate about money for my birthday. My mom got me a gift card so I could buy myself some Stehen King novels and I was like I've asked for this but i need to read what is on my shelf first however its for my birthday so it doesn't count but it will count when I buy x amount of books that I now need to read as well as the ones on my shelf(I still haven't made a decision and now I don't even know if I want Stephen King books) 😂😂😂

[@littlechicks3520]

I loved The House In The Cerulean Sea as well and have also read In The Lives Of Puppets which was very emotional too. Fantasy has always been out of my comfort zone as i usually read mystery/ thrillers so i was surprised how much i enjoyed them. Just about to start on Abby Jimenez (also out of my usual genre) on your recommendation so thankyou for widening my horizons and im glad you are doing better apart from your horrid cold!

[@Talesinmaking]

I just finished In The Lives Of Puppets and it was such a great read and really funny as well as emotional the characters have really great personalities such a fabulous read. I've hyped up House on the Cerulean Sea so much I darnt start it now haha 😅

[@Talesinmaking]

Loved this episode Tyrone! You be you lad because you are great person and well done for finding help when you needed it but also taking the time you needed and also sticking with it. It's a tough battle but you're never alone carry on speaking out. Loved the singing you put your all into those tracks I can tell those expressions were fully invested haha Loved it! And sometimes we do find coping mechanisms like food during hard times and it can take time to work passed them too but you'll do it when it's right, I had a similar deal with food and I started a principle of not rewarding myself with food when I was having a bad time and having it when I felt good instead. It actually really helped but it was again a hard challenge so one step at a time 🙂 much love to you! 💛

[@BookishDadReads]

@@littlechicks3520 love this so much. There are so many fantastic books out there ❤️

[@BookishDadReads]

@@Talesinmaking thankyou so much. I appreciate all of this so much. I woke up today and said this is it. I'm going to make positive changes and try and take better care of myself. I can already feel my mental state getting so much more healthy which is huge so hopefully cleaning my diet up will help even more and also get rid of my boobies haha x

[@annabekind247]

Clean boxers and socks, I literally laughed 😂 Thanks for showing up again, I hope you are both feeling better

[@mumtazsheikh1828]

You are funny love your videos

[@BookishDadReads]

@@mumtazsheikh1828 thankyouuu ❤️

[@annebracher1843]

I’m currently reading the first Inheritance Games. 👍🏻

[@BookishDadReads]

@@annebracher1843 ohhhh I hope you love it Anne. I thought it was super fun 😊

[@SamuelMcAuliff]

I enjoyed the Tom Hanks version, but it did make some unnecessary changes and took out a lot of Ove's backstory. If you don't mind movies with subtitles, there is a Swedish language version that came out before the Tom Hanks version, which is more heartfelt. And you get to know more about his wife and his marriage.

[@paisley9782]

I actually don't want to watch the Hanks version because the Swedish film is wonderful.

[@SamuelMcAuliff]

@@paisley9782 The Swedish version IS the better one of the two, that's true. I've heard a lot of hate for the Hanks version, which I don't think it deserves, but it is missing a lot of the heart and soul of the original.

[@EmmaOrgandie]

Any leftovers from Ellie's mum?? Oh my god that sounds good. As I'm typing this, I am remembering that I'm vegetarian, but still 🤤

[@juliacharles4790]

Just like calories don’t count on your birthday, anything you buy with birthday or Christmas money doesn’t count either. 😂

[@BookishDadReads]

@@juliacharles4790 now that's the spirit!! 🥹❤️
