Wrapping up the month and the year! - Plus a book haul

[@sandraraedeer4849]

I recently found your channel. To be honest the books you read are not what I would pick up, but saying that I have seen some books I would try. So watching channels out of your comfort zone introduces you to new books you would never consider. Thank you for your videos and happy new year.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

@sandraraedeer4849 Happy new year

[@drizzt8965]

Huh?

[@Justinyodonnell]

Hi! I sent you Failed States. It’s me-the author. I stumbled across your channel and it’s the only book review channel I watch. You’ve inspired me to pick up the pen (ok, keyboard) to work on my next book. Thanks for the shout out :)

[@rammelbroadcasting]

That's awesome! Thank you for the book. I hope the writing goes well.

[@ashtyndowdall3285]

I love your channel, even though I have not been subbed for very long, your channel is one of the few I am subbed to, please keep making videos into the new year and happy new year

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Thank you. No problem I will keep on keepin on 😁

[@rjungert]

I discovered your channel this year, and it has been wonderful. I love your passion for the written word, and it has inspired me to read more. Thank you for a fantastic year of reading!

[@plasticplate4868]

I used to read exclusively manga before i found your channel, i jumped on board your first or second berserk vid? I've stuck around ever since and have been completely indoctrinated into your book cult. You got me hooked on all kind of things from PKD, to Dune and so on. I'm currently reading along you on your Malazan marathon and holy shit i'm loving it. Not to sound too sappy, but by pure coincidence (maybe?) you've legit changed my life, or at least a part of it.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Yes you have been here since the beginning! Not everyone has a name as memorable as plastic plate, lol. But seriously, thank you for the support, and I'm so glad I could play a part in your reading journey. Also Malazan is awesome!

[@steved1135]

I found your channel some months ago and am glad for it. It took one video for me to subscribe. Your zeal for reading, and your candour drew me in. Bravo to you sir.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Thank you

[@HoodTimeBooks]

Hell yea I’m excited for the foundation video, talk about a series that surprised me.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

I loved it

[@drizzt8965]

Really enjoy your style and tastes in literature, my wife (today) mentioned that I have gone WAY over on my book budget since I started watching your channel 🤠I wanted to mention that Cold Front written by Barry Hamond is now finally available again through fathompress, for me that is a five-star read. Currently reading 1Q84 and loving every second of it... Thanks.

[@EnzymeBondedConcrete]

Discovered your channel this year and reading Palmer Eldritch now solely based on your recommendation, about halfway through and it's wild, happy new year!

[@rammelbroadcasting]

@EnzymeBondedConcrete Thank you. Happy New Year. And hope you like the book it's pretty out there, lol

[@Sophie-Manhire]

Eighth Sacrament is an amazing read!! It is in the Supernatural Thriller Genre, but it also has so much more to it. It is about family and sacrifice, has tons of character growth, and it has so many great twists and turns, you’ll want to read it again just to catch the details you missed!! 100% recommend for a 2025 read

[@rammelbroadcasting]

@@Sophie-Manhire thanks

[@garrettw4714]

Love your channel waiting on House of leaves to arrive. Reading 52 books a year is amazing I hope to do one a month this year and you have given me a lot of books to choose from. Thanks again.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

@garrettw4714 No problem, thank you!

[@OVK1491]

I found your channel last month, and I really liked how genuine, passionate, and honest you were when talking about books compared to some other creators I came across. Thank you for the channel and happy holidays!

[@rammelbroadcasting]

@@OVK1491 Thank you! Happy new year.

[@johnfronczek2658]

Thank you for your book reviews. I mostly read the classics of science fiction and mysteries ( Jules Verne, Ray Bradbury, Agatha Christie, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle).

[@123mat1231]

Found your channel pretty late in the year. And it was one of the best findings of 2024

[@rammelbroadcasting]

@@123mat1231 Thank you

[@kaokue]

I was searching for your channel earlier and couldn’t remember the name… but I remembered your neon light in the back! Lol. Best booktuber. Happy new year!

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Lol. Thank you. Happy New Year.

[@MargaritaSage]

I appreciate you John! I have an Amazon list by the name of your channel, and it's filled with your great liked/loved titles. It's currently my TBR nowadays! I am a philosophy/religion student (yeah I know, I am so not going for the money with this focus 😆 I might pick up data analysis at some point), so I don't have much time to scroll for great books. Your reviews are the next best thing!!!! Thank you so very much for daring to read outside the scope and to share your findings with us! A very amazing 2025 to you and your family!

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Thank you so much! I hope you have a great 2025 too.

[@VitaA007]

Congrats on the growth! 🎉

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Thanks

[@Cocozelle89]

No way Rammel I'm also in Ohio! Not too far from Akron either. Love your channel and I'm happy to see it grow!

[@y.s.mnails7834]

Fellow book reading human just making it through life. I have only watched a handful of your videos but I am certainly glad for your content. Sending you healthy vibes 😊

[@soylentgreen607]

I'm also in the middle of reading PKD's books chronologicly, i'm at the middle of time out of joint but so far his best work is still to come, i only did read ±5 books of him before starting this. Have a happy new year.

[@steve3306]

Happy New Year Mr Rammel!

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Happy new year

[@draglogia5244]

Happy New Year, once again congratulations on your KZbin success. Happy to join you early this year on your journey/history of KZbin. I’m always excited when I seen you have upload a new videos. Glad you are doing a lot better after your accident, I was generally concern when I saw the thumbnail of the video you talk about your accident; when you post it. By the way, watching your videos about books influenced me to read a lot more this year.(about 25) never thought reading would become one of main hobby. Expect, to see some mail from me sometime next year.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Thanks for all of the support! See you next year lol

[@th3_patch]

I mentioned this in a previous comment, but I found your channel a few months ago as I was prepping to read some horror/SK books. I'm glad that I tuned in because it has led me to be a frequent viewer of your videos. I've enjoyed the reviews, discussions, and livestreams. You've introduced many classics as well as other books I wouldn't even considered before. Glad to see and hear the growth in the channel. It's much deserved. Thank you for all you do and cheers to the community.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

@@th3_patch Thank you!

[@GlobeNinetyNine]

I read Book of the New Sun this year thanks to this channel. Thank you for the gift that keeps on giving!

[@rammelbroadcasting]

No problem 😁

[@TertiaryScroat]

Foundation is great, an absolute blast and so easy to read.

[@reversesentry]

Only the best for you in the upcoming year, too, Rammel! Keep grindin'.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Thank you, will do.

[@nicklee8320]

Such incredible growth this year! I started watching about two months ago and love what you do.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Thank you so much

[@kruppecauthon3475]

I'm loving the channel, man. Blame! brought me here. You were the reason i picked up Titus Groan and I was elated when I saw you were starting your Malazan journey

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Thanks. Malazan is amazing! I'm a couple hundred pages away from the end of Memories of Ice, and it's probably the best one yet.

[@AttackonGames]

Thanks so much for all the great book content do you think you could start putting the books you review in the description? I hate to pause your videos and then go back to it sometimes trying to make a list to rent some from the library 😊

[@PixReads]

📚✅️

[@matthewmitchell9604]

I love Time out of Joint. A lot of people say the truman show is very similar to it. like you mentioned, I can see the similarities, but theyre also their own thing. Great book.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Yes, very much their own thing. But also very good 👍

[@matthewmitchell9604]

@rammelbroadcasting 100%. I love both

[@Colty1]

Love your channel. The variety between manga and genres you like to read is hard to find on booktube. Here to 2025 🍻

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Thanks! Here to 2025

[@nazimelmardi]

Philip K. Dick has an award on his name. For a good reason. Not just Do Androids Dream With Electric Sheep? is fantastic. Some authors said, very ironic they thought Asimov is whose ideas could become reality one day and yet we live in a PKD world.

[@2025Mindfulness]

I have Foundation, the first book, it's on my TBR 2025 list.

[@JacobCMayer]

Semantic Error is a Korean BL webcomic. It's finally officially in English print. It's pretty popular.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Thanks!

[@chevalierdulys]

Pay the bills is that a euphemism for paying dor drugs? Lol kidding (well kind off lol). Ive recently join your channel. Really enjoyed your vibe and energy. Quite simile readings help.. stay true.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

I was just implying that he really was a working writer. Meaning he was not famous (at least not till much much later) and didn't make much money and had to write simply to pay the bills with very little (if any) extra. That being said I see your point lol

[@nazimelmardi]

Have to mention (read everything Asimov) I’m not sure The Foundation is the best or even a good point to start his books. Officially his books are not in a series but chronologically? You can make an order from 1950~ to the end of the Foundation books in between the Empire books. And there are some nice stuff we could read that lead us to the Foundation. Including the robots and why.

[@meccamw]

What edition is that Foundation collection? It looks really nice.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

I don't know it's an old leather bound collection I found at the used book store. It has the entire trilogy, plus i robot and another book that I can't think of off the top of my head.

[@JackManhire]

So glad you got "The Eighth Sacrament." It's Stephen King horror/suspense meets Malachi Martin global/Vatican conspiracy. If you end up reading it, let me know what you think.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

I will 👍

[@orangecardman7905]

Hey can anyone tell me what the yellow book with the horse on it (to the left in the background) is?

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Something wicked this way comes by Ray Bradbury

[@orangecardman7905]

@ thank You :):)

[@rammelbroadcasting]

@orangecardman7905 no problem

[@2025Mindfulness]

The PDK book sounds like a Twilight Zone episode.

[@rammelbroadcasting]

Yeah it kinda has that feeling to it

[@Jordonwilliamoakley]

This guys summaries suck and he barely reads lol goes at a snail pace
