going on 3 blind dates with books | reading vlog (pt. 2) 

ik there’s some shops where u can tell them the books you’ve read or send them ur Goodreads link so u don’t get one you’ve read. :)

Its like dating with your ex

I got one that had Taylor Swift’s song Snow On The Beach for the cover, and that was it. No description. When I opened it, it was a sci fi book I read a long while ago and didn’t like 😭. I was able to return it though, it was from Barnes.

I got a book in blind dates that was almost 15 years old and I was disappointed that they didn’t try to promote new books or ones that weren’t as popular :(

@@leticiarac5810 perfect metaphor 😂

omg yes literally!!

No shade to Sara as this comment isn’t directed at her. But it’s actually against the law in a lot of countries to not be 100% transparent and up-front about sponsorships. For example: They have to be clear, obvious and disclosed as ads as soon as the content is introduced to the viewer, or the portion where the ad is begins. It can’t be at the end of a caption, it has to be the first thing addressed in a caption, RU-vid video has to be clearly stated verbally and included in the description if any further details are added there. That’s why many creators start theirs with “this portion of the video is sponsored by….”. Otherwise you can be fined, and viewers can also sue you. If people believe what they’re seeing is an ad and it doesn’t specify ‘AD’ clearly and/or visibly they can sue the creator. #/soandsopartner, #/sp, #/sponsored, #/inpartnershipwith are not considered sufficient. Or saying “I’m working with”, “I’ve partnered up with” again are not enough because they can mean a lot of things for people who don’t know a lot about the industry. To some people it could mean a discount code, or a shoutout in exchange for products, therefore saying “this is a paid sponsored video”, “paid collaboration” before going ahead and selling the product to the viewer is the correct and safest way to do it. A lot of people don’t like using this language because they worry the viewers will think it’s not genuine, but in reality if you have thousands or millions of people who watch you, like you, support you, they’ll only be happy for your successes and understand that creators need ads to keep doing what they do.

@@dianamaria_mua at the start of the video tho it tells you it includes a paid promotion…

@@athena4576 I did say in my comment that it wasn’t directed at Sara but actually clarifying that there’s a reason you might hear other creators being a lot more obvious about theirs. And a lot of people ‘watch’ RU-vid whilst doing chores, a screen pop up is easily missed.

@@dianamaria_mua wow i actually didn't know this! i knew obviously it had to be disclosed when content is sponsored by a brand or an ad, but i didn't know those specific stipulations of it!

Same I want non trendy book recs
