HOW READERS PACK

[@mariannehakestadkristianse8897]

"You know, i'm a really indecisive reader so i should probably bring one of every genre" LITERALLY ME

[@tracynelson7504]

I read this comment while he said that 😂

[@littlexxcookie2011]

Those dislikes from airport security EDIT: oml I didn't think Jesse would actually reply 😂

[@jessethereader]

LOL.

[@izzybookqueen534]

littleXXcookie hahahahahaha that so true u made me laugh

[@littlexxcookie2011]

[@_taranjot]

IM LITERALLY ON VACATION RN AND MY FAMILY WAS ALL ON MY BACK ABOUT MY BAG BEING TOO HEAVY AND I WAS LIKE "I only brought 4 books and my notebook guys!" THEY DONT UNDERSTAND THE STRUGGLE

[@TiredHeathen101]

The struggle is real!! I have been limited to 2-3 books on trips (and the rest of my space is filled with notebooks, pens, and pencils).

[@bitchpleaseiamunicorn7256]

I brought 10!😂 They didn't all fit thought, so I had to put some of them in the backpack

[@roguenatrixanguismortis9610]

I legit pack two pairs of clothes and then I get limited to 5 books because my mom knows I read really fast but last minute I throw in an extra five without them noticing only to run out of books to read (if I read I can read like 3 thick chapter books a day)

[@hermioneyoung5167]

Taranjot P Truuuuuuueee

[@BootyyShaker9000]

I brought 5 books in my carry on bag alone. That doesn't include the 15 books in my main suitcase, and the final 3 in my extra bag

[@theglitterybookworm]

Haven't watched the video, but I already now I'll relate in some way.

[@maggiecuppett525]

Emily_TheReader same!!!!!

[@proudravenclaw7685]

[@proudravenclaw7685]

[@goodnight-moon564]

TheGlitteryBookWorm Same!

[@overrcast4282]

Proud Ravenclaw that word would be optional

[@xXJaneRoseXx]

I went to the Bahamas for a week and I had a backpack and a carry on suitcase filled with books. I was stopped by TSA because they couldn’t see through the books. And they also thought that my Switch was a bomb. One of the only reasons I left my hotel room on the trip was to buy more books from the gift shop. I came back home with 9 more books. It was a good trip.

[@emilylieber9917]

I just packed this morning and I can say this is 100% true! XD

[@jessethereader]

Hahaha

[@Bianca-kt5gq]

Emily Lieber Lol same

[@emi6193]

Pretty sure this is what every reader's suitcase looks after BEA and BookCon 😂

[@jessethereader]

omg so true

[@emmascustomcloset]

What is BookCon? Because it sounds like something I NEED to go to!

[@mmt5096]

Emma Wittie It’s this thing in NYC where “storytelling and pop culture collide.” It’s in May, but you need to get tickets soon if you wanna go

[@PersonWhoAsked]

wait... there's such a thing as BookCon? 🤩

[@maitri2964]

How do you make notes while reading a book??? Please make a video about it!!😊😊

[@mariachavez3098]

Maitri yes!!!!!!!

[@littlexxcookie2011]

Maitri yessss

[@SuperCandyGamer]

Maitri yesssssss

[@chloedile9769]

Such an amazing idea!

[@moonbreak8256]

Plzzzzz!!!!!!!

[@michellesmirnova4471]

Not gonna lie, I screamed when you put the "Blue Exorcist" manga there since IT IS MY FAVORITE MANGA AND I LOVE IT SOOOOO MUCH!

[@thaliagrace8771]

That's why my family don't travel much

[@valligl9939]

OMG this is so relatable. Last Year i went to greece for 5 weeks and i brought 20 books with me. My whole closet in our caravan was full of books and i almost had no space for my clothes anymore. This year i am going to go to the netherlands for 6 months and i have no idea how to bring all my books to the netherlands. I just assume i need to buy some new books while i am there. :D

[@aflowerthatcannotbebloomed]

Valli Gl where are you going in the netherlands if i may ask? haha i personally live in the netherlands

[@valligl9939]

Emma L. I am going to go to Amsterdam. I really love the netherlands. I have been there a couple of times already. :)

[@aflowerthatcannotbebloomed]

Valli Gl Amsterdam is pretty cool

[@izzybookqueen534]

Valli Gl ohhh welllll tooooo badddddd more books 🙃😁

[@abbieneice5081]

Valli Gl haha then you'll have to bring a bunch home haha good luck and I hope you have fun

[@styxthistle497]

Each time I go on holiday my parents call my suitcase the 'library'.

[@katiemolloy9073]

I’ve done this but on accident. I swear, it was actually an accident. I brought two books with me intentionally, but when I packed my purse in I forgot about the two books that I constantly fit in there (in case I get bored while I’m out somewhere) so that made 5 books, and then I also had my kindle which had three books at the time. 8 books for one trip

[@itsmayhemily]

This is why I like reading on my Kindle. You can carry your whole library with you on one device, so you're never without options 😊

[@YBizzy1]

When you bring 10 books on vacation "just in case" but end up reading none of them ...

[@juliarichardson1222]

Me: ooooh I want to read the lightning thief Me: I’ll bring the rest of the series in case I finish it *5 books so far* Me: I should also bring the heroes of Olympus series because the characters are amazing *10 books* Me: we can’t leave out the Egyptians so I’ll have to bring Kane Chronicles as well *13 books* Me: and we obviously have to bring the crossover books between Kane Chronicles and Percy Jackson *16 books* Me: oooooh I should probably also bring Magnus Chase *20 books* Me: okay and obviously I have to bring trials of Apollo we can’t just leave out Lester Popadopoulus *23 books* Me: okay well, my checklist also says clothes Me: dam! There’s no more room Well, I guess I’ll just spend all day reading!

[@keera6778]

That's me every time I travel.

[@hellobookworms3083]

I went on a vacation in Florida with my extended family a few years back. I had to buy another suitcase while I was there because Borders was going out of business and everything in the store was 80% off. I didn't know they were going out of business and they would have been closed down if I waited to get back home to Texas. I bought 17 books and to this day it was one of the greatest decisions I have ever made.

[@jaidah8438]

This is LITERALLY me packing, one time I made my dad put all his clothes in my mom's suitcase and used his for my books/bookish items

[@lsrimathi7705]

Let's take a minute to appreciate the effort Jesse has put into this video. I can only imagine how difficult it would've been cleaning it all up.

[@samantha.kerr_]

I can relate to this video on so many levels.

[@madelinefield7816]

I'm heading camping this weekend, and then on a different trip on Tuesday so this is very useful.

[@vingumsereading7431]

"Can I just bring my bookshelf? " Me EVERYTIME!

[@75sol21]

Those books are going to topple over

[@SydneyElise09]

I think the bye Chu on this video is my Favorite by far 😂

[@ryanneandherbooks6312]

[@memoandradee]

The aesthetically pleased books for bookstagram is so me! My friends treated me they will throw my books if i took them on a trip we're going this september. got to be careful (or get some book lover friends) hahaha. nice video Jesse

[@adhdweirdo4314]

[@Allymai_]

[@nads4002]

I’m going to Portugal. For 9 days. That’s more than a week, and I hate traveling. All I do is read and I can’t fit 10 books that I’ll need for the 9 days

[@BooksandLooks]

you pack until you cant lift it. Duh.

[@corastone9820]

But Bronwyn can...

[@sabrinaz9023]

This is so true last year I almost didn't bring clothes so I could fit more books

[@aleksandra4702]

i love when you do videos like that!

[@jessethereader]

me too! more coming very soon ;)

[@larissazingg9422]

100% relatable! I'm going on vacation on monday and I started a list of which books to pack 4 weeks ago. And of coures the list is constantly changing and growing!

[@Labinzel]

When that guy on the internet knows every detail about your life

[@sidneyliza1629]

Literally me... I usually bring 3-5 books on trip. Lol

[@gabyhawk5686]

I have literally done this so many times it's not funny. I almost threw a tantrum when my mom wouldn't let me take Clockwork Angel with me on the plane...

[@cait_shell.04]

Yes! My parents HATED it! My dad used to have to go through my bag and take out what I actually didn't need for that weekend vacation!

[@piscismartinez1613]

This is so relatable!!

[@camilareads2063]

Totally relate! /my sister always makes me chose only two or three books, although she thinks I should bring only one. One book is not enough for a trip!!!

[@erinmariecece]

I definitely get that "I HAVE A SUDDEN URGE TO REREAD MY FAVORITE BOOKS" on vacations, and then I need to rush home so I can read them. I usually pack at least 3 so that I don't run out. XD

[@fatimarubidelarosaviramont5958]

This video made me Pack 4 more book into my 3 book tbr for my trip to my grandparents House

[@bellahawthorn4575]

I'm packing 11 books for 6 days because "I need options!!" 😂😂

[@corastone9820]

I would read them all...

[@katwolf85]

So true i have a suitcase for my books and a backpack for everything else and undoubtedly there will also be books in the backpack as well

[@Me-ss2gq]

I tried to do the bye chu thing with you at the end of the video (like I always do) but then you had that whole crisis 😂

[@awandjaebhodaghe3151]

Reading all the comments made me feel a little more sane about my book packing, I usually only take 5 for a week holiday and 3 on a weekend away and end up reading most of the books (it's extremely satisfying). But it's so hard picking which ones to take, I can so relate to that and the part about bringing your old favourites!

[@leahtidwell6093]

Jesse, for me, please wear that amazing hat more often. Seriously. But, this was an amazing video!

[@jessethereader]

ha! i might. it comes in hand on bad hair days ;)

[@elvie2230]

Siriusly :-)

[@claireb1573]

@@jessethereader hahaha that is so funny. Can relate :D

[@munchkinswickedreads763]

I had that exact problem when I went to Myrtle Beach. Completely filed one bag and had to grab another to fit the rest. That one got pretty full too.

[@rito244]

Am I the only one that didn't relate that much?, when I go on vacation I'll do a lot of stuff I don't always do like going to the beach, zoos, museums, trips and all that stuff I don't go there just to read with a different background. But maybe its because I haven't hit that phase, haha. I still think it can be relatable if ur in the middle of a reading period or in the middle of a really interesting book or series. Nice video, do u recommend reading the six of crows books?

[@kylaparagas5084]

I always bring an "Emergency book" when I'm out on a trip, also an "Emergency! I finished my emergency book" book 😄

[@Futiledev1ces]

I love you so much You're my fav booktuberrrrrrr

[@blacksmithorange8906]

Not only is this accurate, it’s relatable.

[@breelovejoy6612]

Should i read carval its sounds awesome i have read the about it and im getting but idk if i should read it

[@kaya5377]

I related to this in every way.. the problem though is that it's not just being able to pack all my books when I go on vacation but bringing back the books that I buy when I'm on vacation

[@SlayerOfVampyres]

Dude I brought 5 books and just bought 13 and I feel this in my soul

[@lizm92]

Literally planning my book packing for a trip in December. Also researching local bookstores so that I can buy more books when I'm there. I totally feel this.

[@abbieneice5081]

This is why I rarely go anywhere cuz I can't bring all the books

[@abigaillachney9734]

I usually just opt to bring my ereader, but then I find myself wanting to STILL bring other books because what if my kindle's battery dies, or it gets stolen, or I have the certain urge to read that one hardcover that I left back home?!

[@Heath_KL]

How is this video so accurate?! 😂

[@itsmayhemily]

This is one of the reasons I'm happy e-books exist. You can basically take all of your books with you on one little device! (Although I still love having physical books don't get me wrong.)

[@kristenlilja5771]

So I went on vacation recently and I brought 3 books and when I got back, I had 5. Sooo my bad was pretty full😂

[@pinksuperstar2]

Yeah, I most definitely have done this. It's always a struggle to pack books, figuring out which ones to bring, which to leave. I try to keep it a 3 book limit

[@hufsa239]

Lol Jesse is me but I don't have that many books, ummm so I just pack all of the books I HAVE

[@car5522]

There is a book series called Fable Heaven and I have always been jealous of this magical object in it which is a backpack that you can carry around but if you go inside the backpack it's a whole room (you climb down a ladder from the entrance of the backpack), and if there's one thing I wish, it's that.

[@ronchigram1]

Relatable AF!!!

[@emziepemzie87]

This is literally me if I go anywhere! I also have to take my book journal so I can fill it out after each book. Book reader problems

[@izahfatima4053]

💯% true

[@EmilynWood]

This is so so relatable. I've narrowed it down to bringing seven books on an hour long road trip but yes almost all of those thoughts.

[@Siseja]

yes. i have done this. not since i switched entirely to ebooks though. makes traveling soooo much easier (and the luggage lighter)

[@thebookhunter2913]

or you just can bring your kindle (?)😂

[@littlexxcookie2011]

The Book Hunter 😱😱😱! And not bring the miracle of the original copy????😱😱😱

[@CharlieOKeeffe]

Lol I was going to say that too. I know psychical books are great but kindles are way better when you're going away

[@abbieneice5081]

The Book Hunter it isn't the same tho…

[@21chemicalatthedisco93]

Charlie OKeeffe Unless you don't have one or don't like reading on it. xD And sometimes, it sucks when you're reading outside with a kindle because of lighting. (Like when the sunlight suddenly flashes off your screen and in your eyes while reading)

[@CharlieOKeeffe]

21ChemicalAtTheDisco they aren't expensive tho, if you travel frequently it makes sense to own a kindle and I hated reading on it at first but honestly you get used to it :) also the new kindles have anti glare screens so you don't really get that problem any more

[@saranghaeyaki]

When I was just starting buying books I remember when we're supposed to stay in the province on my grandmother's house for summer vacation and I brought all my 14 books! I forgot how did I manage to sneak all of that to my bagpack with my clothes inside but I really really applaud myself whenever that memory pops up.

[@Me-ss2gq]

Okay but me

[@aquaticdino]

One time I went on a three day trip to Hearst Castle and legit brought 10 books (they were thin, but it was worth it)

[@strawberryshortcake7336]

Okay, I know I'm hella late. But I just need to get this out Mom, dad. Yes, I am going to bring multiple books (maybe like 50 or so) and my laptop/iPad for audiobooks with me on the trip. Yes I am most likely not going to end up reading said books. But NO, IT DOESN'T MEAN I DON'T WANT THE GODDAMN BOOKS ANYMORE. I JUST DIDN'T FEEL LIKE READING ON THE TRIP, AND THE ONES I DID READ SATISFIED ME WITH SUCH GOOD ENDINGS OKAY!? IF I SEE YOU WITH A GARBAGE BAG NEAR MY BOOKSHELVES. I WILL BE USING BLOOD TO PAINT THE WALLS.

[@nebula2578]

In a few days I’m going on vacation for like 2 weeks. I’m prepared for the struggle since I got 3 series and an extra book in the past week. Very excited about packing.

[@codes9372]

First

[@juliagrace4032]

you really are

[@nicolev7476]

I just got back from a week long vacation and can 100% relate to this! I brought two books for the car ride there, a book for the beach, a book for bedtime reading, and two books for the ride back home...I had the heaviest duffle bag.

[@crayonfactory6340]

This is so true. Whenever I pack for my weeklong vacation I always bring two books and I never even finish one because I'm so busy with vacation stuff. I usually bring two big books too, not small ones with less than three hundred pages.

[@rachelreading2009]

I'm going to relate next week, so is my mum and brother when we pack

[@joycerollins5651]

I am a traveling nurse and I usually go for 3 months. I take a laundry basket full of books. Of course this trip I went to a city that had 5 half price book stores. Needless to say I sent several boxes of books home too. I have a problem!

[@hannah58787]

THIS IS ALL SO FREAKING ACCURATE GAH I LOVE YOU JESSE

[@andreahestand]

I can relate to that. I always take books wherever I am.

[@sarahheller486]

I love it when you make booktube videos like these! They're so relatable 😂

[@RunwrightReads]

I am going camping this weekend and I am bringing books plus e-reader plus at least 1 back up book but now you have me thinking what if it rains and that one gets wet, should I have another back up book. eek!

[@EverySongEndsStudios]

I always put my books in my carry on since there's no weight limit and on the way home last time TSA told me to to remove my laptop and any other electronics from the bag and gave me a strange look when I told him there was no electronics in there, since the bag was so heavy. He started laughing when he saw all my books though. Gotta do what you gotta do :P

[@elyscz]

I'm moving out of my home for university, and my mom also happened to be moving to another state, so we brought everything with us. And now I have to carry all 100+ books back to where I'm going and I just. I need a storage unit.

[@a.b.2405]

Omg The Book Thief pun had me deceased! I think that would be my favorite so far.

[@christinacreech5176]

I normally have a separate bag for books when I travel!

[@brunm]

I definitely did this, twice. I even have pics from the first time somewhere. But I found that you can easily jam clothes on top of books if you do it like a puzzle

[@brunm]

I found it! goo.gl/c7hF29 and this is a large ass suitcase too... I wish I had taken a pic from the second time which was when I was moving countries and had to take only 3 suitcases which were mainly books, I did miracles.... 32kg of books and clothes in a small suitcase, it was beautiful

[@emilyhonish6520]

Yup got to bring those options

[@monkeyfrogsprinkles]

I just got back from my trip to Maine and I was there for around three months so I HAD to bring more than three. I brought seven books and only read three of the ones I brought. While on my trip I did find lots of good deals on books so I did ended up reading two books that I gotten while I was there. I ended up sending home two boxes full of books that I bought. It was kind of bad though but now I'm stocked up for when I go back to school. I'm about to start my second year at college and so I have to stop buying books and save my money for food. Though that could be why I bought so many books this summer...

[@xh9010]

lol just got a bunch of new books from the libray hopeing to get some for my birthday. I haven't been on holiday in ages but this is super true.

[@jengreenlees-reader44ever94]

I LOVE the rationalizations you used for all of the books you packed. 😍❤

[@FeeBee3001]

When travelling in the car for long trips I would have the pockets filled with books for in the car. My bag in the boot filled with more books and would check my mums packer books to see if it was something I would enjoy if I ran out of books.
