OMG Thank you Zoe's Dad!!!! You don't even know - I have literally spent YEARS trying to find out the name of a book series that I started to read about 15 years ago as a young teen, but had forgotten the title of. I googled parts I remembered, I asked around on forums, and I've given up so many times. I thought I'd never get to read them again. Who would have guessed I'd be reminded randomly by watching one of your videos. It's the Dragonriders of Pern!! THANK YOU! Seriously!! I cannot wait to get these books!
i wish i had parents who read avidly :'(((( I JUST GET DIRTY LOOKS WHEN IM CRYING OVER A CHARACTER DEATH AND WHEN I TRY TO TALK TO THE ABOUT IT, THEY TELL ME TO CALM DOWN. you're honestly so lucky!!
Both of my parents are big readers, so I guess I’m lucky. I actually didn’t even think about it until reading your comment, but I guess I’m lucky in a sense. They encouraged me to read from very early on, i was always read to as a child before bed and while all the other children hated library lessons - they were like a gift for me - an hour where I could read at school with nobody disturbing me? Win win!
He never fails to bring a smile to my face :) absolutly love the two of you! thank you for all the new rec's! I guess a trip to the library is in order!
You and your dad have just the cutest relationship and in this quarantine period I am just like bingeing on your fathers and your videos likes I love them so much where are you I am missing you so much get back to videos please 😭❤️
Loved this video, you are so fortunate to have a dad who likes reading as much as you do. I am a bit older than you (42 years old), so probably closer to your dad's age. I shared my love of reading with my mom who passed from cancer in 2005, but I treasure the memories of the books that we enjoyed together. It really is a blessing to be able to share something you love with someone you love so much.
This made me smile so much, and I really needed that today. I adore your relationship with your dad and I desperately wish I had a similar friendship with mine. I hope he knows what an amazing job he's doing at the whole parenting thing 💙
I love how your dad is so enthusiastic about books and it’s amazing how he passed it on to you! Plus he’s adorable and so cool!! If your dad made a BookTube channel I’d totally watch it!
You guys are so cute! Makes me miss my dad now. My dad lives in a different country and I see him like once or twice a year and we usually have cool convos like this ❤️🤓
Omg. Your dad is so sweet. I love that he is so willing to do videos with you. It’s amazing. I can picture my grandpa doing this for me (basically my dad) so amazing.
Hi Zoe, thank you and thank Les for mentioning me as the one who got him into reading Heinlein when we were kids together. I have enjoyed your reviews and picked up many of them. I'm up to about 3000 books in my collection. Dan P.
This was super adorable. I enjoy getting to know your family a bit within your vlogs and it is clear that you guys have such a great bond. I’ve also added a few books to my to be read on Goodreads.
This is such a great video! Your dad seems amazing and you two are so adorable together. I love that your dad read The Shadowhunter Chronicles because of you and is now actually ahead of you. 😊 I hope you're going to film more videos with your dad!

What books would you recommend my dad read next? Also, remember to stick around until 10:55 in the video for a mini Q&A with him!
Well I suggest "Winger" and "Stand Off" by Andrew Smith. Can't wait to finish the lovely video.
Hi Zoe huge fan
I think you should have your dad Recommends a book for you to read. Then when you read it, do a video discussing the book with your dad.

"Death is neither evil nor good." So profound, that touched my soul. Greetings from Colombia!

I can't handle the cuteness of your dad 😭
I’m not really into fantasy or sci fi but I couldn’t stop smiling listening to him describe these books your dad is too cute!!
I got really excited when I saw this notification, from your vlogs your dad seems to have great book taste so I’m glad we now get to know!
Omg will you adopt me? I need to be apart of this family!

This Father-Daughter Bookish Tandem is fun. Kudos. 😉
We shall protect your dad at all costs
Your dad should start a TH-cam channel 😊
Yay! I love the Dresden Files series! It’s so gooooooood. The audiobooks are really great too. The narrator is James Marsters, Spike from Buffy!
Now I have to read these just because of that fact!
Your dad is a straight up nerd and i am LIVING for it! 🤓🙌🏻
This is the cutest video I've seen in a long time! I think we need a ReadByDad channel!
Would you consider doing another video with him at some point where you guys talk about some of his favorite books that you've recommended him?
Your dad is so passionate about books, it's lovely!:)
