I freaking died when she was beating the chicken with the pot 😂🤣❤️

[@SharonVictoria90]

I don’t think your vlog was mediocre, it was real and relatable. Also I personally think you don’t have to feel guilty because of the books you received because you don’t make us do anything. People choose to gift you a book because they want to because they like you. I 100% understand feeling guilty because of that because I’d feel it too but I’m telling you want my friends would tell me: people sent you stuff because they genuinely like you for you. I hope you had a merry Christmas Whitney, thank you for vlogmas this year!

[@WhittyNovels]

thank you so, so much sharon

[@lajamaicana712]

you intermittently talking to your cats is such an interesting side aspect to your vlog. it really adds something hahaha

[@WhittyNovels]

thanks, i have no friends or roommates

[@Kerrington96]

MA’AM!! What do you MEAN “didn’t do anything” for the wishlist packages???? Like all these videos ain’t a gift to all of us??????!!!! I can’t wait to see you open your gifts!!

[@WhittyNovels]

this is so validating, thank you

[@Kerrington96]

WhittyNovels of course!! I know anxiety isn’t rational so I hope all the reassurance is helpful!!

[@claudietta923]

seeing you beating that chicken with a whole pot made my entire week fjdgndgnn

[@WhittyNovels]

listen,,,, i don't own kitchen utensils for anything other than forks and spoons for eating microwavable mac n cheese with......

[@josualyrivera1683]

Same 😂

[@SimplySaraReads]

You do a ton allowing us into your life and editing and filming. All your gifts are deserved. As you give a lot to us viewers! Excited to see a video. I was waiting. Lol.

[@WhittyNovels]

thank you so much

[@ohheyitsdeanna]

When your mom said that you had to beat the chicken i was thinking about how you were gonna do it but lord i did not expect you to bring out an entire pot I almost died!!!!!

[@WhittyNovels]

i own 30 spatulas but no meat pounder

[@MsLaurenVlogs]

You’re mom is so kind. 😭

[@WhittyNovels]

i love her to bits

[@thebellelumierenet]

Girl, your gift in return is the content you supply to us for free! You spend your time and energy making videos, and we all appreciate it. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

[@WhittyNovels]

thank you

[@alceeclayborne9070]

I normally don’t comment but I just wanna let you know I like it when you get stuff. You introduce me to books and manga that I don’t know about. So don’t feel guilty for one minute you give us something in return Vlogs with awesome cat footage and the Whitty cooking show.

[@WhittyNovels]

thank you so much

[@shelbycreads]

I only want Whitney content for the rest of my days. Thank you.

[@WhittyNovels]

hahaha thank you so much for watching!

[@roaaexe]

popular opinion: the gifts you feel guilty for getting are what your viewers can give back for you, for giving us free entertainment i feel like i expressed this badly but you get what i mean

[@WhittyNovels]

i do get it, thank you so much for the validation :')

[@erinmariecece]

You driving and not realizing a lane ends is ME. I hate driving and feeling like a rude person when I make a mistake, I’m like IM SORRY I DIDNT KNOW.

[@WhittyNovels]

being a dumbass behind the wheel makes me more empathetic when other people do stupid shit

[@Kindlelover88]

Watching you cook is the best. I seriously think you should make a separate channel just for cooking. I completely agree that raw flesh is the most disgusting thing ever and all the work it goes into making something yummy and homemade truly does take forever. I have to say I enjoy eating more than making it.

[@WhittyNovels]

oh gosh, i would burn my apartment down LOL. i'm totally with you

[@NaomiTheBookLover]

Omg that cooking section was all the content I’ve ever needed. Your conversations with your mom though 😭💗 “this is not relaxing. I’m not having fun”: me every time I cook

[@debralavoie9095]

I look forward to seeing all your new books. Don't feel badly for receiving gifts, it's because you are loved. Have a great New Years!

[@WhittyNovels]

thank you so so much

[@Never4mind]

I would love to watch your vlogs all year round. 😭❤️

[@WhittyNovels]

i wish i had the tiiiime :(

[@PinkyJapan]

Whitney, I didn't buy you a book but I'm overjoyed at all the books you received!! You have been making videos for years and giving up your valuable time to film and edit. Your followers just wanted to give something back to you. I think I speak for everyone when I say - WELL DESERVED! Also, I'm 5'7 (not that tall) but I live in Japan and the countertops are absurdly tiny so I feel you on those backaches!

[@WhittyNovels]

thank you so so much

[@redd7293]

Whitney plucked the herbs off one by one 😂😂😂 we Stan a queen who makes things harder than they need to be. I need more Australian accented words!! Also I need more cooking videos. Loved that.

[@WhittyNovels]

my mom said to just run your fingers down the stalk and they'll fall off but she lied!!! also i'm terrible at australian accents and i can only barely do a kiwi one. if i include it, i'll just embarrass myself

[@ABElizabeth5]

I’m so relieved that I’m not the only one who repeatedly says sorry while merging lanes

[@TheJabberCrew]

AB Elizabeth I do it as well. I always feel bad for doing things that drive me nuts to other people.

[@WhittyNovels]

i wish i had a bumper sticker that says "i'm sorry for the way i drive" or something to that effect

[@TheJabberCrew]

@@WhittyNovels YES!

[@Read-to-Breathe]

I love when some of your real life included in the volgs and I hope I see more

[@WhittyNovels]

i'll keep doing that!

[@mpsensha]

The therapeutic effects of cooking, nothing like beating meat to let off steam. 😅

[@WhittyNovels]

im--

[@angelicacordero6373]

Okay, cooking with Whitney needs to become a segment 😂

[@lindseytaylor7583]

Your mom is very knowledgeable about cooking. Cooking is stressful for me too, I feel like I'm working every position in a restaurant to serve my family 😂😉 you got this!

[@WhittyNovels]

she's the best, which is why I now can't cook LOL. i had her doing it for me all these years!!!

[@ArielAntenna]

I was struggling with finding a new job right out of college for months at the same time you were and found my perfect job around the same exact time as you and i completely relate to christmas being so much better 💗 it’s finally my first christmas in 4 years where i’m not working at a big corporate retail store and can actually enjoy the holidays and it is amazing.

[@WhittyNovels]

aw yay i'm so happy for you!! this was also my first year i didn't have to work at petsmart and it's soooo nice

[@JillyMae89]

I've never "met" a funnier human in my entire life. I can not. *dies*

[@aurorasunderland309]

Whitney you are honestly so relatable I’m crying😂

[@WhittyNovels]

hahaha

[@stevie__reads]

Try not to feel bad about receiving books! People sent you those because they love you❤️

[@WhittyNovels]

i definitely feel better with all ya'll hyping me up. i appreciate it

[@keeley_reads]

I started watching your videos back in 2014 and it's been so much fun watching how you have grown up through youtube. I can relate so hard to a lot of what you've been going through and wish I would have had someone sharing their story back then. Keep being amazing!!

[@eleanor.e.w871]

i love your vlogs especially these more daily life ones that have been in vlogmas! do you still journal? because that’s how i originally found your channel ages ago and i’m glad i stayed 💖

[@WhittyNovels]

i don't journal as much as i wish i did :/ i keep collecting things to glue in but i hardly touch it. sigh.

[@Samheartscows]

I haven’t read the Little House on the Prairie books in forever, but they were my favorite in like 2nd-3rd grade! These Happy Golden Years was my favorite. Farmer Boy was the hardest for me to get through.

[@WhittyNovels]

i wish i'd read them as a kid! i think i did in school but just forgot

[@MaryHeyMusic]

Your vlogs are my absolute favorite

[@WhittyNovels]

thank you so much for watching

[@readernac13]

All of those beautiful gifts were given to you out of appreciation. Those are the perks of having a successful book tube channel!! Enjoy! And you do give back when you give your honest opinion about all the books you read. Happy New Year!🤓📚🐛

[@MandaFandaa]

“Let the record show” is your favorite. Lol

[@WhittyNovels]

the record be showin lots of stuff

[@Mermaidfolk]

Please film the unboxing of all of the books! I really like watching those, and I think I would love watching yours. Looking forward to your next video, Ly. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

[@WhittyNovels]

i just posted the unboxing! happy holidays :')

[@avsambart]

I also felt like this Christmas was good too. Usually I struggle too because I live in a completely different country from the rest of my family, and the country I live in now doesnt celebrate christmas so I always work christmas day but me too, this year was actually fun and I too was rocking out the lots of great Christmas songs all season.

[@WhittyNovels]

oh dang, that's rough! i'm so happy you had a good year though :)

[@sharonforbes162]

I don't think this vlog was mediocre, you are always fun to watch! I hope you had a Merry Christmas, I'd love to see a video showing all the books you received! ! 😊💖

[@WhittyNovels]

thank you so much!! merry christmas to you as well. just posted the haul :)

[@briannaallison7012]

I love your necklace!!!! (The one you wore with the yellow cardigan to be exact lol)

[@WhittyNovels]

thank you!

[@justateacher6156]

For the little house books!!! The early ones are VERY boring. But the ones where Laura is a teen are so much more interesting! From “the long winter” and on they’re sooooo much better

[@WhittyNovels]

good to know! i think my mom still owns her copies from childhood so i might peep those haha

[@Kc1304_]

don’t feel bad or guilty about posting your wishlist. if people didn’t want to send you a gift then they wouldn’t have!

[@WhittyNovels]

thank you for the support!

[@justaylin5139]

I know this is redundant to say bc having ppl tell you something isn’t going to change anything until you realize it for yourself, but please don’t feel bad about posting your wishlist. If you hadn’t people would’ve asked you to. You said that you’re feeling guilty and I just want to say that people want to give you gifts bc your videos and presence here make them (and me) so so very happy. We love you

[@WhittyNovels]

[@moniquecasarez6729]

I love your cats so much there so adorable I love when your cats listen too u when u tell them too get off Whitney u make me laugh hahah and when u beat the meat with the pot 😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂

[@elenareadsbooks88]

I have loved watching these vlogs so much over the last month or so and hope they continue into 2020. I want to see more of you cooking and trying new things. I never normally feel the urge to send people things but I have sent you a recipe book to your PO Box that I think you will love. It is simple and the meals I have made from it are delicious. Also I have found anyone I have gifted or pressurised to buy has also loved it so I hope you like it when it arrives. Thank you so much for sharing yourself and your life with us you are a true joy to watch and I wish you amazing things for 2020 :) x

[@kierracarlisle9630]

Your whole cooking segment had me dying 😂😂

[@WhittyNovels]

me too, my back hurt so bad

[@kelandhershelves]

If calling your mom several times while cooking isn't relatable, then I don't know what is! People that just know how to cook without help blow my mind! I'm in my mid 20s and I still call my mom to help me cook.

[@janellehampton3944]

Excited to see you open your wishlist books! Don’t feel guilty no one was forced to send you anything. ☺️

[@meganvr1228]

LOL, you cooking is gold~ My favourite seasoning to use on literally everything is Italian seasoning. It’s the good stuff~ I even used it in my Shepard’s pie last night cuz I didn’t have the seasoning packet that I thought I did so I had to wing it. It was YUM 😋 Polar Express is my fams fav Xmas movie, but my Mom forbade us from watching it this year cuz she’s sick of it. 😅 Instead we watched Noelle on Disney +, but it was pretty dumb. Then, we watched the new Beauty and the Beast which I have lukewarm feelings about and THEN we watched Frozen. Frozen made everything better~ 🥰

[@WhittyNovels]

i always sprinkle "everything but the bagel" seasoning from trader joe's on stuff when i have nothing else. and yes, polar express and frozen are the best!

"Who are they trying to keep this garlic from?" I'm using that next time I struggle to open anything 🤣 Questions: 1) How was my day at work? Today is Sunday so no work but I'm really jealous of all the people I know who have basically taken like one or two weeks off for christmas and sharing memes about how they don't know what day it is and all that and I'm just over here chugging away. 2) Do I have to stoop? Yes. I dream about designing my own place with counters my height.

[@WhittyNovels]

countertops for tall people, GET ON IT!!!

[@becklebooks]

I also watch chelseadollingreads & she was also talking about the fact she didn’t read much during vlogmas, but it’s cos you’re always vlogging and giving us content and something has to be sacrificed right? Time, to edit, and film. :) Reading or no, I enjoy your vlogs a tonne! If I wanted reading content I’d watch your other videos again. You do you, it’s krimmus. ✨
