24:30 seeing you vlog so casually on that bench alone next to all these strangers made me feel so anxious but also so PROUD like omg that's so powerful??

[@alexisvlogsandkpop9780]

“I just went through agony” ME AT THE END OF ENDGAME

[@alexisvlogsandkpop9780]

Trang Thu I KNOW

[@dominique7520]

I love that you talk about Cassandra Clare and Harry Potter!! 💖

[@JennReadsLots]

I've been having a few rough mental days that have prevented me from reading, but watching your videos really helps calm my anxiety and brings me into a better mindset. Thank you

[@LauraAbbd]

"At best if someone talks to me on a train I’m gonna get harassed and at worst I’m gonna like literally get assaulted." Damn, that’s a sad world we live in. Glad you had a positive experience with a stranger though.

[@rachelhinton4752]

seeing you talk about mental health and how it impacts reading sometimes made me so happy and felt so heard. i’ve been experiencing some serious school stress keeping me from reading and seeing someone else power through that is so inspiring. love you💖

[@phoenixrises626]

I LOVE your vlogs! And 40 minutes?! Girl, YES! 🙌💖

[@emmmabooks]

thank you so much

[@catalinasalinas5352]

42 minutes of pure happiness and perfection 😱😍😍😍

[@emmmabooks]

[@zerosmelody5]

okay, I have not been a subscriber for THAT long, but in the 2-3 months that I have been, it's honestly very inspirational to watch a lot of your content. The reading vlogs are probably my favorite, and most watched, and any time I am feeling overwhelmed or down, I just watch one(or like 20) of your videos and it helps me feel better. Thanks for being who you are! I hope everything works out with the school stuff. I've been going through that and it's not fun.

[@grey-vb7ox]

My last day of high school was today and I’m so glad you posted and took my mind off it 😂💕

[@emmmabooks]

hey congrats!! thats a wonderful accomplishment :)

[@grey-vb7ox]

emmmabooks Thank you! ☺️

[@lindaklinedinst9236]

You had me crying right along with you - I know how you feel - I went through so much crap when I was going to College because they kept getting me and this other girl all mixed up and they would deny me every single time and I had to fight them to make them understand that my Account is just fine. At one time I gave them my piece of my mind. I love your Library - your Library looks so awesome. I love going to the Library and spending a few hours at the Library Reading or write down Books I want to Read or just go and look at Books., Happy Reading ❤️🔰❤️

[@zainabkhan9892]

16:22 I'm totally with you there!! I myself am 12,and I believe these meaningful beauties should be required reading instead of books like island of the blue dolphins,a series of unfortunate events(these are two books that were a part of my course over the past few years).While these books *_may_* be enjoyable,that don't generally have a lesson or message like awareness of global warming etc.In my opinion dystopian books like the giver, the list are great books that should be read by youth.The books should interest students so they actually want to read and focus on the book,and they should also have powerful messages. Also the little prince would be a great book for youth. *thanks for actually reading this long rant lol*

[@mirrorballmusings]

Enjoy those Harry Potter chills! They're the best! I've been enjoying the podcast Harry Potter and The Sacred text and all the new perspectives the come along with rereading.

[@emmmabooks]

thank you for the rec!

[@rebekah4027]

Awww lovely! I am so sorry you had a rough day! Just know you bring so much sunshine into all of our lives, and seeing your vlogs gives me a bit of downtime from the constant thoughts that run through my head! I have seen so many of your vlogs and they make me so happy!

[@emmmabooks]

thank you so much lovely

[@chroniclesoftae1280]

I just started listening to the Sorcerer’s Stone audiobook for the first time this week and it’s making me feel so nostalgic! I really enjoyed hearing your thoughts about Deathly Hallows. Talking about HP never gets old and there’s always something new to discover and discuss with each reread! ❤️

[@savannahcarlon7033]

I read People Kill People because of your last vlog and now I'm reading Again, But Better and I'm freaking loving it. There are so many twists and turns I was not expecting.

[@emmmabooks]

yay so happy we're enjoying so many of the same books!

[@allisonzhang8918]

You’re so cheerful in these videos! Love your vlogs🥰

[@bookishnatie9614]

Coming from experience fully having a breakdown over school issues. 'Hugs' The pain. Get self care and take it easy. School is always there. Your mental health is important.

[@emmmabooks]

thank you nat

[@mimik9948]

god my heart broke when u cried emmush i love you you’re gonna be okay, you’re so incredibly strong and whatever you can’t handle the people you love will handle for you ❤️❤️ this vlog made my week!

[@maddssilva]

I just love all you reading vlogs, they just put me right in the mood to read! Thanks Emma

[@emmmabooks]

thank YOU for watching!

[@k-0316]

I have a similar experience with libraries. Libraries have been a huge part of my journey in reading and writing. I am very close with my school librarian so being in a library reminds me of how great my librarian is and how thankful I am that I met her.

[@emmmabooks]

that's so sweet!!!

[@laurenditzel4283]

It was so great getting to meet you and Michael at Christine’s book signing you all were so nice!

[@emmmabooks]

so lovely meeting you!!

[@laurenditzel4283]

emmmabooks hopefully I’ll get to see you guys again at bookcon next year!

[@kara5396]

They didn't do all of the twilight graphic novels, they did twilight in two volumes (i think you've got volume 2), and the first volume of new moon (the second had been pushed back so many years at this point).

[@emmmabooks]

thanks for the update!

[@Duckkymiilk]

Hi Emma! I have been reading alot more by tracking my read....I read hundred pages a day😄I am now on the 3rd book of the series the land of stories...I recommend it for fairytale lovers🤗

[@emmmabooks]

wow that is super impressive!!!

[@cinyyyyy8416]

I really need to read Again, but Better. Hopefully I’ll be getting to it soon!!

[@emmmabooks]

i hope you enjoy!

[@sydneysbooks]

Catch me waving at 26:24 and a lovely closeup I wasn't aware Michael was doing at 26:59. WHAT A GREAT BOOK SIGNING

[@alinafaye02]

I want to pick up Ace of Shades so badly after hearing you fangirl about it!! Another great reading vlog Also, random note: I work at that library 😱

[@anna.francesca]

I’m starting my Harry Potter reread and I’m so happy that we get to experience it again. 🥰

[@just_another_account8089]

I love the library too! 🥰🥰🥰

[@crazybooklady2104]

Where did you get your fairy lights? Have you read the cursed child and the two fantastic beasts books?

[@emmmabooks]

they're from amazon! i have read cursed child but not fantastic beasts :)

[@isabelladasilva796]

You are amazing Emma. Keep up all of the good work. These vlogs are the literal best.

[@emmmabooks]

[@Furby420]

You're the only youtuber I watch where I never skip ads. Love you Emma!

[@emmmabooks]

that's very kind of you, i really appreciate your support :)

[@jemimamiranda9924]

Emma's reading vlog is goals made my weekend so much better ❤️

[@emmmabooks]

aw thank you!

[@GracewithBooks]

I love hearing your thoughts as you are reading! Also, I love the fact that you are rereading Harry Potter! I feel like every time I read it, I've grown as a person so I view it a bit differently every time!

[@nkfanning]

I’ve really been getting back into watching reading vlogs recently and I love yours 💕💕

[@emmmabooks]

thank you so much niamh!

[@lucianacorreia957]

I'm LOVING these reading vlogs!!! Please Emma if you can do them more often🙏 you're my favourite booktuber i love your videos!!❤❤❤

[@emmmabooks]

thanks lovely! i'd like to :)

[@givemeprimelaughter]

I just finished The Book Thief and MY GOD !! No wonder Hailey adores this story. It's marvelous, the writing is magnificent and the fact that it's narrated by Death was an exceptional choice on the writers behalf. That ending though, that BROKE me.

[@kyleybremer8324]

Omg this vlog was amazing!! I loooved hearing you talk about Harry Potter, it was so awesome!! I’m currently rereading the series again on audio! I’m on Goblet of Fire which is usually my least favorite favorite but I’m actually reallyyyyy loving it!!!

[@emmmabooks]

thank you lovely! GOF is great!

[@OneAndOnlyCaitie]

Really loving these reading vlogs !

[@emmmabooks]

i'm so glad to hear it!

[@Slow_Internet]

Damn. It’s already June. Which means we’re already halfway into 2019 It’s going by so freaking fast. Probably because it’s been my favorite year since 2014 Everything just feels right. I have a great grasp on my life and little no complaint about the way things are going. It’s great having such a nice year, especially after the living hell of 2016.

[@Slow_Internet]

Holy crap its May of 2020 and BOY does time fly

[@rukayyaidrees9968]

All this content we are gonna be getting in the next few weeks!!! I’m soo exited !!💓💓

[@emmmabooks]

aw you are so sweet!

[@lj2659]

I love your reading vlogs so much!

[@emmmabooks]

thank you!

[@zahliajeffery2918]

You probably don't do it for this reason, but it's so helpful to see you being so honest with your day to day struggles mental health wise. You're such a strong and inspirational person

[@emmmabooks]

i included that clip because i hoped it would help others not feel so alone :) thank you sweetie

[@breannethompson7776]

Had to come back and relive your King of Fools reactions. Can’t believe we get Queen of Volts in a couple weeks, I am not prepared :O

[@beepboop9976]

Oh my god I’m sooooo excited for this!!!

[@emmmabooks]

[@JemimaRose]

the train update was so aesthetically pleasing haha - the colours of the seat, your dress & the book all matched :')

[@emmmabooks]

ahahha you're so right!

[@tiffyyzo]

seeing you cry honestly makes me so sad, but i hope everything worked out college wise ( i remember u tweeting about it!). on a positive note, i love your reading vlogs 🤩

Yay 42 mins of happiness! Love u Emma!♡

[@emmmabooks]

love you too!!

[@aideeng8259]

You're making me really want to reread Deathly Hallows! I haven't read it in a few years and you talking about it made me realise how much I miss reading the Harry Potter books.

[@emmmabooks]

you totally should!

[@LauravanBarneveld63]

I live the sight of libraries more than bookstores too. Just the feeling of sharing books with others, and that all the books have been read and loved before. Sometimes bookstores just hurt because I have to spend money to buy books, or don't have the money to buy books and have to leave them all there.

[@nicolejovanic8628]

this is such a comfort video to me

[@vavila16]

I'm not ready for summer classes go start 😢 I'm re-listening to Name of the Wind audiobook at work. The first book sounds unique!

[@vavila16]

Omgosh I love how u addressed Amanda 😂 I'm laughing!!!

[@emmmabooks]

best of luck with your classes! ooh ive heard great things about name of the wind!

[@ariesreader2432]

Thank you for the vlog! It’s really nice to see how you try to keep it positive even when days don’t go as planned...it’s really inspiring. And thank you for your opinions on The List.....I’m considering reading it one of these days. I hope you have a lovely week before summer classes begin! ❤️

[@emmmabooks]

[@lizziethewriter2398]

I love your scrunchies! ❤️

[@holleydupre2669]

LOVE your vlogs! I also do a yearly reread of Harry Potter, so I love hearing your thoughts. BTW, your library is huge! Mine is a single room, but they are good about ordering out from other libraries.

[@emmmabooks]

thank you!! i'm glad your library can do that for you :)

[@akshitavarma8663]

Coincidentally, I too picked up the physical copy of Deathly Hallows this week for a reread... And guess what... No matter how many times you have read this series... It makes you fall in love with it over and over again... ♥️⚡⚡⚡

[@emmmabooks]

yes yes yes!

[@andreanicole24]

Try oat milk!! It’s definitely the superior milk alternative

[@emmmabooks]

i have yet to find one in my local grocery store that i like but i LOOOOOOOVE oat milk!!

[@lorcansalvaterre7421]

And incredible video, and a longer one you made my day more happy :) thx s much. And you're so pretty ❤️

[@emmmabooks]

thank you so much lovely!

[@glitternpain]

I loved "The Giver" so much!One of my favorite books ever. I prefer dystopian books over anything,lol.

You make me realize I need to pick up King of Fools! I bought it when it came out, but I haven't read it yet and now I need to!

[@emmad6760]

I'd love to hear your deeper thoughts on the Harry Potter books

[@emmmabooks]

[@ThisIsSilvia]

I seriously love your vlogs so much, they make my days better! Can't wait for the next video 💖

[@ReadByAmanda]

AHHH IM SO HAPPY I FINALLY HAVE A TIME TO WATCH THIS. i adore your reading blogs. now I'm so NERVOUS and SCARED TO READ KING OF FOOLS NOW OMG

[@emmmabooks]

thak you lovely AH ITS SO GOOD

[@jessicahope1180]

Love the way you talk to us like we are there

[@glitternpain]

Book 4 and 7 of "Harry Potter" are my favorites of the series(couldn't choose one over the other).Generally,I love endings in books,because they give me nostalgia and a sense of completion.

[@glitternpain]

Well,I liked The Cursed Child,too,but mostly because of Albus(my child,my fave)and Scorpius.They could've put more time in world development. Also,I consider it kind of a spin-off,not really a continuation.

[@emmmabooks]

i love final books two!!!

[@BrittanyandBooks]

The twilight graphic novels i dont think went past new moon but each book was split in 2. So there are two graphic novels for Twilight and i believe 2 for New Moon as well.

[@emmmabooks]

ooh thanks for letting me know!

[@hannahiris6706]

I'm going to see the curse child next week (it just came to Australia) and now you've got me so excited!!!!!

[@emmmabooks]

AHHH ITS SO GOOD I HOPE YOU LOVE IT

Love me some in-depth Harry potter talk ❤

[@trinhsformerz]

[@readmetchieread6396]

Emma here makin me want to reread HP is truly a constant.

[@kristinhershey1903]

you gotta listen to Harry Potter and the Sacred Text podcast!

What is your mascara omg its beautiful, can so relate on using Harry Potter as a coping mechanism

[@emmmabooks]

stila huge lash mascara!

[@mariachirica4377]

I am also re reading the Harry Potter series and I havent read it since 201 so I forgot how good it was and still is. Also I am curently reading Kingdom of Ash by Sarah J Maas and man a there is so much happening in this book .....

[@batqueen2369]

Aw I’m sorry to hear the college is giving you a hard time! It sucks for sure and I’m also dealing with some issues with tuition so I can relate to some degree! Just ready for my last year to get done! Summer classes have started up for me and I feel I never have time to read, and yet watching you always inspires me to read more.🖤🖤 Keep on inspiring people 🖤

[@emmmabooks]

best of luck with your classes!

[@ohsoabby4689]

love arvin so so much so happy to see you!

[@ZeeZeeDreaming]

I recently finished comedian Sarah Millican's How to be Champion - it's an autobiography, self-help. I never read this kind of thing, and I'm not kidding when I say it has a part of my heart now! Loved this vlog from you!

[@emmmabooks]

ooh that sounds great!!! thank you :)

[@ZeeZeeDreaming]

emmmabooks Check out some of her stuff on KZbin, she’s great - so relatable! I think her autobiography has an audiobook too - I don’t know whether she narrates it though 😩

[@ooomar2689]

I'm so jealous your library has a nice YA selection :( mine has THG and twilight and they call it a day

[@emmmabooks]

maybe they can order books for you!!

[@glitternpain]

I actually LOVE open endings,but I agree that I hate fast pacing. When I was little,I couldn't cope with the death of a main character,especially if they were part of a couple,so I always thought those stories had open endings...But the reality is that open endings(in YA,at least)aren't that common.(I'm talking about standalones)

[@scripturientspages2805]

Somehow your top matches the seats at the train 🤔

[@JennFaeAge]

Did anyone else want to give Emma a hug when she was getting upset? I hope someone else did, otherwise I'm gonna feel weird as hell XD

[@carolinetaylor3069]

Awww girl I'm so sorry about your tuition. I literally cannot graduate because I was unable to get a hold lifted on time to add this class to my summer classes, so now I have to graduate in December. They don't lift a finger to help people and they act like 5 year olds. Don't even give them the time of day

[@emmmabooks]

that sounds really rough, i hope school is going okay for you

[@carolinetaylor3069]

@@emmmabooks it is, but I have so many amazing people to support me. thank you
