I agree that smaller booktubers showcase the diversity of this community, not just in its members but also in the books that are being read and talked about. Smaller booktubers are the best =) Having reading become a group activity is so great too. It can feel very solitary at times but then having readathons or buddy reads and discussing books with others just makes the experience so much more fulfilling! Hope you have another great year on booktube
thank you!❤️ i definitely agree with you that some of the bigger booktubers aren’t really in the booktube community. i don’t want to gatekeep the community but they don’t really reflect what’s going on😅 just knowing you watch my videos is support enough tammie🥰
Happy one year on booktube! It's been so much fun watching your videos over the last year and I can't wait to see what this next year on booktube brings for you!
100% agree about smaller booktubers being more engaging to watch!! Loved hearing all your observations and insights learned! One of the things I've learned from booktube is to not take myself too seriously? It's been a real test of my self-image but I've learned that everyone kind of has their own personality and their own lane, and just because I'm not more like the people I admire doesn't mean I don't have value in my own way.
i love that realisation and it’s so true! i think posting regularly really forces you to relax and be yourself or you’ll just burn yourself at quicker. and i love seeing everyone’s different personalities on booktube- it’s like a gigantic friendship group where everyone is unique. it keeps things interesting for sure!
I just found your channel and HOW HAVE I BEEN IN THE DARK FOR SO LONG?! Until starting my channel like a month ago, I had no idea there were these smaller booktube communities. I feel like my eyes have been opened and now I have so much amazing content to consume and SO many more book recs that I am genuinely interested in! Just so excited to hopefully be a part of this conversation.
i’m glad you found me!! there are so many smaller communities on booktube and it might take a while until you find “your” people but it’s worth it! keep that excitement, i’ll help anchor you in this wide ocean of booktube.
You’re one of my favorite people in this community because of your incredible insights into all things book related ✨ i love listening to your opinions and every time you post a new video i get so excited!! Here’s to a lot more growth (personal and channel wise) in 2022 💕
🥺🥺🥺thank you rita! just know i appreciate all the support and love you give my channel! i’m so glad i came across you during my first year and here’s to growth for BOTH of us!❤️
It’s literally my first month on here and while I enjoy bigger booktubers, I’ve enjoyed discovering a lot of smaller ones. And YES SIS! Visible “big” booktube is white, whereas the booktube community itself is quite diverse I also feel like the books read on here could be MORE diverse
some of my favourite booktube channels are huge, but i spend the majority of my time watching smaller booktubers- it’s just a different vibe! and yes, the books read on booktube could definitely be more diverse.
