Great set of questions Katie. I will have a go. You must be prepared for almost everyone saying that watching you was pivotal in their booktube journey 😊

@melissahouse1296 5 месяцев назад

Yep pivotal indeed (as a reader / bt consumer) 👍💕

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

Haha thanks both :) I'd be interested to hear your answers, Ros!

@melissahouse1296 5 месяцев назад

Yours (closely followed by Jenny Brooks' channel) has made the biggest impact on my reading life; i was a *huge* consumer of period films / screen adaptations but had never read a classic in my life & didn't know where to start.. then i found your channel 💖💘 You're brilliant at what you do- u dont sound false in old videos at all- just young & infectiously enthusiastic & intelligent (im in awe tbh). Thank you for all you've opened us up to! 😍🤗😊

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

I think maybe it just sounds weird to me because they're older videos and my voice/manner has changed slightly? It feels surreal, though, to watch any older videos.

@LeanneRose 5 месяцев назад

This is such a lovely tag - it's wild to reflect on how long we've been creating videos now!

@davebonello1944 5 месяцев назад

(Melanie here) What a fun video to watch. You were the first booktuber I think I ever discovered - maybe 5 or 6 years ago? I am so grateful for Booktube. I have found so many new books and authors to love through it! Also, having that connection with other readers is so satisfying.

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

It really is :) Connection with other readers is definitely such a great thing about Booktube.

@lilsvintageworld 5 месяцев назад

What a lovely tag, looking forward to making this one!!

@ClaireReadsBooks 6 месяцев назад

Love this, Katie! You were the first person to comment on my first video (which meant so much because I was already a fan of yours) - and doing Victober my first year on Booktube was such a meaningful way to feel part of the Booktube community early on. ❤

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

Thanks, Claire! Was I really, on your very first video? How fun! I do remember coming across your channel and loving it - can't believe it has been so long :)

@readingandstitching1944 6 месяцев назад

So glad you added in that you slow down your videos! I used to find it difficult to follow you because you spoke so rapidly...in fact, I thought you must speed up your videos! I wouldn't have imagined that anyone could speak so fast! Just my slow brain finding it difficult to keep up! Thank you for your wonderful book reviews...I very much enjoy your videos! ♥

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

Thanks very much :) I wish I could speak slower, but I really struggle with it. It's always been a nightmare for work meetings and that kind of thing!

@ACupOfBooks 6 месяцев назад

I adore this. I was looking for a Booktube meta tag recently and kept considering the Booktube oldie tag but the questions never really interested me. This is such a great collection of questions and is so interesting!

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

I do love a Booktube meta tag !

I’ve been looking for the perfect tag about booktube so thank you for this ❤ You’ve always been a big inspiration!

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

Thanks, Claire! As have you for me 😊

@davidleonard8547 6 месяцев назад

My TBR stack is such a variable thing. I tend to always have a pile of what IS being read at present and another for upcoming (and another for what has been set aside for the time being), but, my being inherently addled and easily distracted, I tend to change my mind so often that the stack can only ever be a loose suggestion to myself even at the best of times.

@MLLatUtube 6 месяцев назад

Fun tag! It was very interesting to learn more about you and your channel. I love both Jane Austen July and Victober and am so grateful to you for creating and running them.

@larrymilliken288 6 месяцев назад

I’ve not commented in a while, even though I watch every video faithfully. However, The Book Journey Tag was simply great! That’s not to say your other videos are lacking, but the enthusiasm and backstory of your career, as a host, were so interesting. Thank you, Katie!

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

Hi Larry, and thanks very much :)

@novellenovels 6 месяцев назад

This has come up for perfect timing as I can do it on my booktube anniversary. Thank you for all your support since I joined booktube you are so amazing 😻🥰❤️

@abhijeetkushwaha424 6 месяцев назад

A video from you makes my day! Thank you.

@TimeTravelReads 6 месяцев назад

Thank you for this tag.

@thelibrarianofalexandria6200 6 месяцев назад

My booktube anniversary is this august. I have been on booktube for five years. Defently doing this tag. I like longer videos and think this is a well done tag. Similar as you I have been Watching booktube for longer. Started in 2011 I think.

@1book1review 6 месяцев назад

Great idea for a tag, Katie. I will definitely try to do it as it just sounds fun. Thanks for tagging me :)

@wendy-bookworm 5 месяцев назад

Love this. Are there more than six Sarah Waters books? I have been desperately awaiting another one for about ten years, how have I missed this!

@katiejlumsden 4 месяца назад

There are only six! I may have misspoken - can't remember exactly what I said!

@Faye_L 5 месяцев назад

You: I slow my videos down because I talk too fast. Me: **watched this video on 1.75 speed** Girl, you're good, don't even worry about it! 👍❤

@jamesduggan7200 6 месяцев назад

Thx; I have no channel. It's my expectation that to start one inevitably would be a disappointment, and tbh I enjoy participating through comments. The thing which gets me is this fascination with genre, as if one can't read YA and Non-Fiction, or Contemporary vs Classic but not both. I do recall finding BT around 2018 and being turned off by the sheer volume of videos focused on what's new in books. As a reader - like everyone else ofc - I've a nearly endless tbr that I tend to truncate around 20, many of which have been there quite some time. A couple of years ago I tackled Proust's Lost Time in French, and I don't believe I would have done that without BT, so I'm thankful, even if it remains somewhat esoteric. That was my greatest highlight, but also there was A Man Called Ove. Also near the beginning I'd find myself explaining why I read Moby Dick and why War and Peace is my favorite, discovering to my chagrin that such old school taste in literature invites acrimony. However, a pair of BT'ers decided to do a WaP project that instantly gave credence to my opinions, and for that I'm thankful too. I enjoy a lot of different channels, and hope to continue watching here several more years - thx.

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

@OliviasCatastrophe 4 месяца назад

You've been on booktube for so long now as well! And you have been so steady with it. I am also a fellow book blog to booktuber pipeline person, I think we have similar journeys in that way! I just read mr loverman the other month and I really enjoyed it too, which surprised me because I wasn't the biggest fan of girl woman other. And I read passing in uni and I adore it so much. I think I own like, 3 editions of it now 🙈 Your shelves are magnificent and your collection of black penguin spined books is so cool! I do my tags on my liveshows with patreons and will definitely do this one next x

@kevinrussell1144 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for the revealing and fun video. Since I'm a native American Yank (western US), you don't talk too fast for me to understand, but thinking about those who have English as a second or third language, I'll bet your speaking speed does twist their brains a bit. I recall (years ago) trying to learn Spanish and French and getting pissed off and saying (silently) if those b'tards would just speak a little slower I might catch on. Funny. We all have our limitations. I started reading about as long before JFK was shot as years since you started your channel. When a young child, we may have had 20 or 30 books in the house and a set of Britannica. If you wanted a book, you went to the library. No bookstore either in our town of 5 or 10K population, no computers, but everyone read the newspapers (local and regional) and literacy levels were surprising. It was a very different world. Are we at all spoiled by this HUGE sea change? I started watching RU-vid for music videos perhaps 4 years ago, then learned you could also find channels discussing sports, politics, religions, books, and even geology. It never creases to amaze me that with a few clicks of a keyboard you can converse, sometimes in real time, with someone in London, Mumbai, Timbuctoo, or Winnemucca, who may not look like you but has similar likes and interests. IF we were to dig up Dickens and ask him whether THESE times were the best or the worst, he'd (likely) soon conclude that the internet merely allows a quicker path and many more ways to heaven or hell, depending upon what you're in Search of. Staying out of opium dens, however, still works, then and now.

@lefttoread 5 месяцев назад

This was so insightful! I started my BookTube at a time where I was learning more about my reading tastes and I'm making that a part of my BookTube journey, it's been really fun navigating what things I like and dislike in books. It's so nice to hear a prospective from someone who has been doing this for a while now. I also love editing and I'm always editing out repeated sentences and long pauses 😂 I'm so glad to have been a part of your inspiration for this tag and I'll definitely have to come back to it and do it myself once I've been here a while longer. ♥

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

Great! Booktube is definitely very helpful for working out your reading taste, I think.

@Cardenio2012 6 месяцев назад

I don’t have a BookTube channel but I’ve been watching BookTube since 2017, I think. I don’t want to start my own channel because I know how much time and effort it takes to make one video. I’d rather watch more BookTube videos, get inspired, and read more. Although I don’t leave comments, I truly appreciate and enjoy your videos, Katie! I started reading Dickens because of you. ❤

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

Thank you :) That's a lot of good years of watching Booktube - I hope you're enjoying Dickens!

@GinaStanyerBooks 5 месяцев назад

What a fun tag idea! I hope this one, like the Newbie tag, lives on forever. I'm pretty sure that Sanne, Jean and Jen were the first booktube channels I watched too.

@davidnovakreadspoetry 6 месяцев назад

I wonder that this tag hasn’t existed before - I’m glad you took the bull by the horns and created it. 👍 Thanks for sharing your BookTube story. I had no idea you’ve been for nine years. 🎉🎉

@emilioalaniz9775 6 месяцев назад

I’ve viewed booktube since 2015. Your channel around that time as well.

@KierTheScrivener 6 месяцев назад

Haha the long pauses and saying the same sentence seven times is the most accurate description of my editing experience too. Interesting that you slow yourself down. I also talk fast and get complaints about but it feels so essentially me. I relate to the 'not being an adult without booktube' I was nineteen turning twenty when I started my channel seven years ago and I feel like booktube has not only influenced me as a reader but as a person. I can't imagine a version of myself who never discovered booktube. Thank you for the tag! I'm so excited to do it!

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

Right?! I can't really imagine who I would have been if I hadn't started Booktube. I watch all Booktube on 1.25x speed and still no one ever sounds too fast to me XD

@michaelldennis 6 месяцев назад

I have been watching booktube for about 5 years. My wife keeps pestering me about creating a channel myself. You were one of the earliest booktube channel creators I started watching because my renewed classics journey -- particularly Victorian classics which I've found I really enjoy -- started about that time. One video type that you do occasionally which I find so engaging is your conversations with your husband over a Victorian classic. Your interaction with each other and the book itself on screen is great content to watch.

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

Having a channel is fun, I promise :) And yes, I really enjoy doing videos with Nick. We need to do some more - we haven't done one for a while.

@danieljackson3367 6 месяцев назад

This was really interesting, particularly as someone who's been watching your videos for about seven years. It's been great to see your channel grow in that time and your videos get the larger audience that they deserve. P.S. I've just been listening to Little Dorrit for the Mega Dickens Readalong, and am going to listen to some more now. I'm really enjoying it!

@katiejlumsden 5 месяцев назад

Thanks :)

The wonderful aspect of booktube is to discover channels like yours and to support in some capacity your work and initiatives. Keep fighting the good fight!❤
