BREAKING MY SILENCE...

[@BookLionQueen]

The way I dropped everything.

[@jasminvalerie]

About to let my breakfast burn because I got the alert after I put eggs in a pan 😂

[@queeninpink5333]

Same😂

[@Katytastic]

@@jasminvalerie letting your food burn is very 'cooking with kat' coded XD

[@OG_lesliedixon]

Same!!!

[@stephanieloveskatie]

Same omg

[@marianamauricio]

"cooking with kat" was one of my comfort series omg pleeeease i'd love to get a new episode 🥺

[@paninisen]

SAME!

[@AnderrsonM]

Me too. A new season of that would be so nostalgic hehe

[@user-co5po6ys4h]

i keep rewatching those 😭

[@turtelina]

Loved those a lot and cooked the things, too. Often.

[@derlis_whatever7033]

OH SHE'S BACK!!!! MY 2013 SELF IS HAPPY

[@storieswithjess749]

The way I audibly gasped when I saw Kat in my subscription feed😭😭❤️

[@MirandaPurpleClouds]

ME TOO!!!

[@literarzee]

me too! omg

[@nikolettapr]

@@storieswithjess749 sameeee ahahahaha

[@LizBrandt97]

I genuinely don't think Kat realizes just how loved she really is. I for one, will be watching every video she feels like creating. ❤

[@thisaruabeywickrama7227]

WE NEEED COOKING WITH KAT SO BADDDD. Literally those videos give me such comfort and warmth and I watch them religiously whenever I'm down. So glad to see you back and I'm so excited to watch your KZbin pages unfurl. Stories will never be over when you're still writing pages as a wise queen said.

[@silverkyre]

I think about her saying "Yams!! Yam fries??" Everytime I see one! Lol

[@colddrinkclink]

1) SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU BACK YOU HAVE NO IDEA 2) hearing “cooking with kat” awakened something deep in my soul 3) genuinely excited to watch new videos in any capacity you deliver them in! a feeling of nostalgia i’ve been needing, but also just general genuine excitement to hear from one of my favorite creators. i’m happy to see you back and excited for more and i promise not to perceive you too much queen lol

[@penelopebunce]

Reliving my youth rn… can’t believe you’ve uploaded!

[@devonmunn5728]

I've been watching Kat since I was like 15. I'm gonna be 25 this year

[@KerriB]

Yay, when the world needed her most, she returned 😂

[@evien190]

Kat, I'm so happy to see you. Man, I miss the glory days of like 2014-2016. I was only a young teen but still😭 Post whatever you like and we will watch, at least I will:)

[@nini-et1jp]

2025 will be a fantastic year because we got Kat back! Welcome back Kat, no pressure, post as infrequently as you feel like, with or without makeup, messy or clean background, edited or unedited, we love you the way you are

[@Walking_With_Strangers]

You were part of the reason I found out about NaNoWriMo! I remember 2012 was my first year participating in NaNoWriMo and you added me back as a buddy. While you were vlogging your process, you ended the videos in shouting out people in your buddy list as they finished the 50K goal. I ended up on the list in one video! I was a teenager then, but even now I still remember that little encouragement. I'm glad see to see this update and hope everything's been well!

[@mackenzie9329]

I remember watching you when I was a sad fourteen year old. And now I'm still a sad fourteen year old but in a twenty three year olds body. I know what it's like to constantly feel paranoid about being seen, but maybe knowing one person got something out seeing you will be enough to make that a bit easier. Nice to have you back Kat

[@marissaann1233]

Your "HELLO! My name is Kat" made my heart happy 😊

[@MonroeBrackey]

Queen is back, and with the cutest hair cut!

[@marianamauricio]

@@MonroeBrackey YESSS it looks so good!!!

[@Katytastic]

thank you!! i did it myself after seeing it on tiktok XD

[@lmajjiga3005]

actually screamed and clicked on this video so fast. WELCOME BACK KAT!!! i started watching your videos when i was like 12 and now i'm 19, and i'm so happy you're back!!

[@poppyherondale13]

Omg! I’m glad to see an update of you. You were part of my teenage years!. I miss your reading vlogs of 24 hours 😭. It doesn’t matter if you wear make up or not, what I’ve always loved about your videos was and IS your personality and how realistic they are. I hope you can comeback soon. 😢 Happy to see you again. ✨

[@emilykate0835]

So glad to see you here again! Your calm chaotic nature and soothing voice is so lovely and I'm amped to hear you talk about books or writing or cooking or whatever again!! And please know that even now as soon as you announce you're publishing I will immediately be hitting that preorder button

[@camilaarmani8566]

I cannot express how happy I am!!! This is all I've wanted for over 2 years! Plus, your hair looks amazing!!!

[@estherasselin5227]

Saw your ig post about this and RAN to youtube to watch. So happy to see you back posting, whatever style of videos you like will be happily watching

[@ElenaBoteva]

Same same

[@ciarawhite1700]

CHANNEL RELAUNCH 🎉💃 we’ve missed you!!! hope you’re doing well!!! so happy to see this video in my feed. your writing vlogs are so beloved to me, and cooking with kat was so ICONIC & a staple of my childhood!!! i genuinely have rewatched those videos about a million times

[@MyBookishEmpire]

Kat! I am so dang excited! I have watched your channel since 2012, through high school, college, and into adulthood! I am so glad you’re back!

[@rosalynransawbooks]

omg you were one of the first authortube creators i ever watched and now my debut is coming out this year! feels very full circle 🥲 so excited for your comeback and can’t wait to see what’s next!

[@rachelhesketh94]

First Caz coming back YT and now Kat coming back to YT? This crazy!!! Welcome back Kat!!!!

[@tsunqueencos]

I recently saw a TikTok video that was talking about BookTube nostalgia that mentioned you were making a comeback, so I listened to your ep on Christine's podcast, and I have been WAITING WITH BATED BREATH FOR THIS VIDEO! I remember literally sneaking peeks at my phone under my desk at work the moment you dropped "thoughts on quitting youtube" because I was devastated by the thought of you quitting! All that to say, I've always loved your content, and the way you express it as sort of a love-hate relationship depending on your daily mood is incredibly valid. I'm happy to watch your content as long as it exists and glad that you're back for more, but I hope someday you'll reach the point where you truly feel you can 'retire' from KZbin and feel content with all you've created. And that hopefully at that point we can continue following your career as a writer! Thank you for all the time and effort you've always put into this channel. I look forward to seeing what you have coming! Also the YOI movie cancellation was a crime I will never forgive. Come on, Mappa, we waited years!

[@xoannaox89]

You're kind of the reason me and my sister got into drinking espresso. I watched a vlog where you mentioned it once when you were getting your drink. Anyways, I got my sister to also drink espresso and we've been hooked ever since. Just a couple days ago she randomly remembered and asked me about that youtuber. Lo and behold, you uploaded a video, haha. Glad to see you back Kat!

[@kinassasomething1330]

Yayyy welcome back Kat! Proud of you for doing the scary thing (that hopefully will make you feel better in the long run)!

[@fangurling8980]

We missed you! No need for perfection, just a "hi" is good enough!

[@BinocularsSwag]

I am very pleased to see you back, and that you're still planning to stay around. I am a Cooking With Kat Stan 5ever, I really find your writing videos so inspiring and fun, and of course, who doesn't love a book related video? Happy new year :)

[@twelvebooksaday8640]

I’ve missed your writing content so much it was always so inspiring this is so exciting!

[@emmaajean]

so so happy you're back!! your weekly writing vlogs series is still my go-to rewatch when i need motivation

[@liquidblueeyes]

I just wanna say, I’ve been in a slump for almost two years as well. I can’t tell you how many times I checked your KZbin to see if I missed an upload. You made me excited to read and was always a calming and friendly voice in the background talking about books where I had no friends to do so with in real life. This has made my day. Welcome home… and in this home; we’re all clowns for RepTV🖤

[@aLilaBooks]

Kat, it's so good to see you again!!! I'm honestly so excited no matter what you end up posting, but I will admit that I shrieked so loud I had to clap my hands over my mouth when I heard you mention Cooking with Kat xD

[@libraopal22]

Thank you for coming back. I am so glad my gut told me to keep subscribing to you cause I felt that one day you would come 😄😆

[@nikolettapr]

I can't believe Kat has uploaded!! ..., and a comeback??? Can't wait!!!! P.s.: Kat you should narrate audiobooks!! I mean, you have such an ideal voice for it!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@marianamauricio]

the rainbow shelves look soooo good!!! 😍

[@camelia_ecr]

I'm so happy you're back Kat! When I discovered your channel about 10 years ago I started reading more and I enjoy that even now. You are the reason I'm a reader.

[@TheWriMoBlog]

Kid you not, I was looking through your channel just last week wondering where you were! I'm so glad you're doing okay. You're alive! ♥

[@Emily1672]

Continue to do whatever it is that makes you artistically and personally fulfilled. We are here to support your journey without judgment. It is really good to see you again! Wishing you great joy and an imminent rep announcement. ❤

[@victoriagomezalfaro6150]

Welcome back!!!!! Seeing the notification brought a smile to my face.

[@deborahlehman2934]

IMMEDIATELY clicked. Watching your 2012 nano vlogs gave me the courage to finally start writing back in the day, and I will always be grateful for that. I'm so excited to see your new ideas, whatever they end up being!

[@ChandaElise]

Aww Kat, the light of my life thanks for existing and bringing light into my life. Always appreciated

[@iamrjdennis]

We love and support you! Happy New Year!

[@weaslove]

so happy to see you here !!!!! i missed your voice Kat ! Welcome backkkkk

[@hsfhanaa]

I missed you. You came back right as I got back to reading, thank you

[@paigest.laurent5784]

The gasp I breathed!! I love and miss your videos so much!! Welcome back!!

[@amyrorok]

The way I’ve been checking her channel over the past few months waiting for Kat to show up again 🥹

[@kv2661]

It’s so good to hear your voice and your bookshelves are so pretty!

[@fredaswan8858]

Ditto what other folks are saying: super happy to see a video from you! Your channel is one of my all-time favourite writing channels. I've watched and rewatched so many of your videos. KZbin isn't done with you yet! ❤

[@gcandela86]

Omg, welcome back! I'm so excited to see what you put out, and also, cooking with Kat being chaotic and not "staged" is literally the best!

[@keribetweenpages]

Omg Kat! Thank you for posting! We missed you so much!

[@jamesgreen7505]

I am so delighted to see you again! So excited to see what you do going forward xx

[@angelicarosado7637]

Absolutely not realizing that Cooking with Kat was 8 years ago?? Which means I’ve been watching you for almost a decade. It’s so nice to have you back again!

[@littleobvious]

i never unsubscribe to you because i just KNOW you will just pop out again at a random time one day😭AND IM ALWAYS SO HAPPY WHEN YOU DO!

[@Kusid68]

i feel like i manifested this because i was just thinking about you yesterday! a very random memory came up, a very long time ago when i was watching a video of yours about a heroes of a olympus book, you also uploaded a video about learning korean (i remember you having green hair!) and i was so excited bc i had just started learning korean around that time and it was fun to know others were doing it too (it was way less common back then ahah) i really don't think you need to worry so much about a high production video and all that!! yay for the two new videos!

[@maddiemelcher4939]

I was so happy to see that you had posted a new video! I can’t wait to see what else you post! I’ve watched your channel for so long, it was one of my favorite for years ❤

[@surrendersweet]

I’ve missed you! Good to see you back!

[@ahyokawolf7207]

Kat! I am so happy to see you back! Holy shit this was not on my bingo cards this year but happy to see you!

[@Shibutanifangirl]

This just made my day!!! Your voice is comforting and I watch your writing videos so often still. They inspire me completely. So glad you’re back!! You have been missed.

[@kokochen5754]

COOKING WITH KAT IS MY FAVOURITE COOKING SHOW ON KZbin

[@hayleyknighten2416]

Welcome back! I missed you!

[@preciousgahan]

Welcome back Kat!!! Ahhhh!!! Im so excited!

[@MothInTheLight]

This is so crazy. Last week I was looking for your channel wondering if you would ever come back. And there you are :-) welcome back!

[@kathale967]

Welcome back Kat, so excited for your new videos

[@pipinanaC8]

I saw the notification and I clicked on it without hesitation - watching your video threw me back to a better time. Glad your back!! Love the hair!

[@MikkiProductions204]

Welcome back, Kat! 🥳I loved watching your writing vlogs as it kicked me into gear to continue my writing.

[@marmarillee]

It has been 10 years since I've been binge-watching your videos all over and over again, feeling like having a friend I can talk to, it has been so many years since I've fallen in love with Throne of Glass, bcs you were talking about it, but was not published in my country yet (then talked to the local publisher and discovered, that they bought the rights for publishing it), 10 years since I've started my own booktube channel because I loved your videos so much and thanks to that got a job in book marketing, met so many authors a other book addicts, now making videotrailers for book publishers and on my way to become a published author in few months. Sorry for the unnecessary yap comment but I feel so nostalgic right now, so happy, that I hear your voice and so many memories are popping in my head I just can't.... T_T You were the start of so many amazing things in my life!

[@Larissaltz13]

Welcome back!!! Happy to see you

[@kayceek7]

What a great way to kick start the new year! Happy to see you back!

[@hanakimi09]

Not what I expected to see when I woke up this morning, but dammit am I happy about it! Welcome back, Kat!

[@bright08]

So glad you’re back!!!

[@carmenmagill132]

SCREAMING!!! SOO HAPPY YOUR BACK. Cooking with Kat was always a favorite series but honestly I'm just happy to see you back on my feed : )

[@booksandyarniness]

YAY!!! You're back!!! What a welcome surprise on my Subscriptions feed today!

[@fallinginfiction]

So happy to see you back! To be fair, I completely understand why you felt the need to take a 2 year break. I also thought you made some great points in this video. Like you, I’m also waiting in anticipation for Taylor to announce and drop Reputation (Taylor’s Version). I have a feeling it’s going to be soooooooo epic and I hope I’m not wrong.

[@Nicodunn0]

Omg welcome back kat!!! We’ve missed you!! Something In my heart warmed up while watching this! Hope you are doing well!!

[@ideknic]

Bro, the way I literally screamed when I saw this!!! I’ve been watching you since the beginning, you were one of the first channels on booktok I came across, back in the day. I can’t believe you’re back! I feel like I haven’t saw a video from You in like 5 years 😂😂😂😂

[@eallae]

The way I gasped. Been following you since something like 2014. Clicking on a Katytastic video after so long actually healed my soul
