I didn't start reading until 2021 so it's really refreshing to hear another adult talk about also being new to reading. I might have finished 1 or 2 books in high school 11+ years ago but never had an interest until recently. Now I can't stop! Looking forward to more videos!
I found your channel today after searching around for some book reviews on Stephen King. I’ve now subscribed, I think we have similar tastes in stories. I got into Reading books again recently after I found my attention span for them in my 20s-30s wasn’t there. I switched to Audiobooks. But like you I love going into bookshops and looking at all the books. I started by re-reading a book I’d read years ago and noticed my imagination wake up and take me to the places in the story. It was thrilling! I’m now reading ‘The Reformatory’ - by Tananarive Due and it’s gripped me. I’m happy to have found my love for reading again!
I’m delighted to have just ‘met’ you. I love your natural, unedited style of video. I’ve also stopped myself from reading for pleasure, telling myself that every book needed to be worthy and text book like. I think you just may be encouraging me to have fun with reading, thank you! 😊
Welcome to TH-cam! I was a huge reader in middle/high school and then probably didn’t pick up a book until 2020 and I picked up ACOTAR. Since then, it has been so fun to remember how much I love to read fantasy but now I’m here to expand what I read. You’ve been helpful in helping me explore other genres!
Loved this 1st video Nick! I've read so many books based on your recommendations this year and you've never led me astray. Read 🤡 earlier this year and currently on my first Mistborn journey!
Congrats on starting a channel! Im looking forward to following along. I just started reading a couple years ago too and now it’s my entire personality 😂.
Came to your channel from your TikTok when you spoke about it the other day and fancied watching this one while I wind down for bed. ❤ Also having watched your TikTok for a while I assumed you were a life long book worm like me especially the way you talk about the books you’ve read but it’s never too late! Welcome to the book worm community!
Great video, I got into reading 9 months ago, started with Gene Wolfe’s Shadow and Claw, absolutely incredible, sparked my love to read, never thought I’d be a fantasy fan but wow, totally hooked, I subscribed to u too btw!
I've been following your tiktok since you started. i started reading right around the same time as you did. Love the vid, love the tiktoks! Books are sick!
This is great, I’ve been enjoying your videos on Tik Tok for some time now and I’m so excited to enjoy your long form versions of entertainment. I can’t wait to see your channel grow
I love your video's! So much fun to find you here right now, I look forward to more longform content :) Love your recommendations as a new reader, I am new in high fantasy so love to see your accessible recommendations
It’s great to see you on TH-cam, Nick! Thanks for telling us about your reading journey! Maybe that means I can groom my own family into becoming readers too?
Yayyyy so happy you’re on TH-cam!!!!!! Really enjoy your vibe and how you talk about books and your journey. Appreciate all the LOTR references and agree that the Two Towers is the best!
I love that you created this TH-cam channel despite only having started your reading journey fairly recently. It’s so relatable since I’ve only gotten into reading in the past few years as well. Love your video style. It’s also refreshing seeing books that you don’t see many people talking about (shout out to Lonesome Dove!). Looking forward to more videos!
I enjoy following your reading journey. We have a similar reading story and are into similar books. I was a non-reader until my early 30s and am now obsessed. I mostly listen to audio books and buy the hard copies of ones I love so I can go back to my favorite parts. Keep on doing what you’re doing!
Yayyyuu so excited for you to start your Booktube journey! Looking forward seeing your longer videos. I always pull up your videos while at the bookstore so ik what to pick up. Just picked up Dead Wake yesterday at B&N.
Wonderful first video. I keep putting off reading Sanderson due to the length of his books. I only read 10 books a year and have such a back log! Maybe one day. I also buy books so shelf space is a premium. Keep up the good work on your channel.
Hey man I just started to read this year. It started because of your TikTok. Before this year I had only read a few John Grisham books. I feel in love with Misery by Stephen King. Now I just picked up Lonesome Dove and can’t put it down!!!! Anyway thanks for what you do and love the vibes!!!
I didnt read until after college. I just figured we were reading so much in years previous because we had to. Then after my friends and i did a bookclub, one a month of classics. I had a crush on my friend so i wanted to participate. Edgar Rice Burroughs was my favorites.
I just wanted to say that I think it’s wonderful that you have started your career of reading! I have always been a reader - I’ve taught English and writing- but I feel like within the last five years, I have become a true reader, which is odd . I think getting older helped. 😊
You’re my new favorite book-toker! I’ve always been too scared to go anywhere near Stephen King’s books since I’m a scardy cat but you’ve influenced me to try out 11/22/63! Excited!
Great first video! Hope you continue with the TH-cam format. I’m currently listening to the last Mistborn book. The audiobooks are fantastic if you ever want to revisit the series.
You were great. Pretty similar story, I aldo never read and thought reading was BLAH although I loved going into bookstores and libraries, then maybe 3 years ago my friend recommended Mistborn to me, so while locked down during covid i bought and got hooked. 3 years later I now own over 50 books. You are braver than me though, I keep considering starting a youtube channel but I'm so nervous to do it! Keep going man!
welcome to Booktube! I’m kind of a newbie myself…started a channel last year. And that’s mainly because I wanted to ramp up my reading and delve into classics…Good for you that your wife has made recommendations. That’s awesome! Again, welcome! I’m going to watch your other video next.
Welcome to the TH-cams, my guy!! Been following your TikTok for ages. Love having you on this platform! I saw your big books you want to read in 2024 video! If you want to buddy read or do a TH-cam livestream discussion or something for Under the Dome or Covenant of Water, I’m down!
I've always read but not as much as I have since covid. I like booktubers that read across lots of genres. I like classics and I like horror, comedy and mysteries. I like beautifully written books and books that are a roller coaster ride. I subscribed. 😀
So excited to have you on TH-cam I love your content. The longer format rocks! Have you read all of the Stormlight Archive or just Way of Kings so far?
It's so good to see you over on booktube; I love your booksta so can't wait for more long-form content:)) I really need to read more fantasy, Mistborn may be where its at...
The Sanderlanche is the term for his book endings! Love Warbreaker as a great standalone and Tess of the Emerald Sea for something more whimsical and a quick read. Binging your videos currently. A voice we need in the booktube community. I was in your shoes 6 to 7 years ago and booktubers were so well read, their opinions didn’t mesh with how I saw books as a novice reader. There’s a certain baggage that collects as you gain experience and it’s nice to hear such a fresh perspective.
So good to see your channel. My reading journey started with Harry potter. I did not enjoy a court of roses and thorns too much. But overall was a good series.
I started reading later in life too. I like your style of just talking to us through the camera with no edits. It really refreshing actually.
I agree. I love no cuts. Even in movies when they cut a lot it bugs me.
"I like big books and I cannot lie" 😂😂
Already one of my favorite booktube channels - love the style!
Thank you so much!
“I like big books… and I cannot lie” 🤣🤣 love that you’re on BookTube! 😊
I didn't start reading until 2021 so it's really refreshing to hear another adult talk about also being new to reading. I might have finished 1 or 2 books in high school 11+ years ago but never had an interest until recently. Now I can't stop! Looking forward to more videos!
Mistborn is amazing. Great introduction into the Cosmere. I just named my adopted cat after Vin. So many amazing characters.
You did it, dude! Stoked to see the beginning of your journey!
How wonderfully refreshing to find someone with such an honest, warm delivery without any affectation or the pretence of knowing more than you do.
I didn't know Clown in a Cornfield was YA. I'm gunna pick that up for my daughter 😁
I found your channel today after searching around for some book reviews on Stephen King. I’ve now subscribed, I think we have similar tastes in stories.

Books are so sick! Also you seriously only started reading last year?! Amazing! Bring on Lindsey!
And you’re doing great 👍🏼
So glad you started this channel. Your TikTok’s are a comfort to watch so this is really nice to have
Haven’t even watched yet. I’m just liking and subscribing to make sure you’re on my booktube catalog! Yay!
I’m delighted to have just ‘met’ you. I love your natural, unedited style of video. I’ve also stopped myself from reading for pleasure, telling myself that every book needed to be worthy and text book like. I think you just may be encouraging me to have fun with reading, thank you! 😊
“…and I cannot lie” 😂
That was smooth.
My daughter loves Fantast so I shared this video with her. She bought the Brandon Sanderson books you recommended and is excited to read them!
I love big books but I'm so so so intimitated. 6 months late but you're amazing!!!
Welcome to TH-cam! I was a huge reader in middle/high school and then probably didn’t pick up a book until 2020 and I picked up ACOTAR. Since then, it has been so fun to remember how much I love to read fantasy but now I’m here to expand what I read. You’ve been helpful in helping me explore other genres!
Love this! So casual yet so earnest. So refreshing, cant wait for more
The Well of Ascension and The Two Towers are my favorites too! I've never subbed to a channel so fast 😂
I loved your first video. I wish you the best!!
Loved this 1st video Nick! I've read so many books based on your recommendations this year and you've never led me astray. Read 🤡 earlier this year and currently on my first Mistborn journey!
You are perfect for doing book talks! I worked at the library for almost 25 years. Love your approach! 💙📚
Dude love your channel so much! Been going back to rewatch all your stuff
Here from TikTok. I'm excited for your channel! Yay!
Congrats on starting a channel! Im looking forward to following along. I just started reading a couple years ago too and now it’s my entire personality 😂.
Loving the longer video format! Also, Well of Ascension was my favorite in the trilogy but the anxiety at the end almost killed me lol

Oh my gosh! Yes!!!!! This is so exciting!!! Congratulations on starting a TH-cam channel.
Loved this! I just re-picked up reading with the stormlight archive. I’ll have to give mistborn a try!
So excited that you made a YT channel, your podcast is one of my favorites!!
Great job! I've bought WAY too many books since following you on IG, but no complaints! 😁 I like your summaries and reactions to all of them.
Congratulations on the channel! Looking forward to the content. 😊
Wonderful first video. I keep putting off reading Sanderson due to the length of his books. I only read 10 books a year and have such a back log! Maybe one day. I also buy books so shelf space is a premium. Keep up the good work on your channel.
Congrats on starting the channel! Clown in a cornfield was a fun popcorn book (I grew up in the eighties so it brought me back to my childhood).
Loved this! Fun and relaxing to listen to. Then Concerning Hobbits hits 🥰 all the cozy feels.
You are becoming my favorite booktuber! ❤
Hey man I just started to read this year. It started because of your TikTok. Before this year I had only read a few John Grisham books. I feel in love with Misery by Stephen King. Now I just picked up Lonesome Dove and can’t put it down!!!! Anyway thanks for what you do and love the vibes!!!
„There‘s lots of stuff they do to each other…“ 😂😂 Love your videos and really glad you are on youtube now! Keep it up! 😁👍🏻
Came across your channel recently but thoroughly enjoying it! You’re killing it bro - loved the tune at the end too
I didnt read until after college. I just figured we were reading so much in years previous because we had to. Then after my friends and i did a bookclub, one a month of classics. I had a crush on my friend so i wanted to participate. Edgar Rice Burroughs was my favorites.
Loved this!
So glad you joined TH-cam ! Looking forward to seeing you on here now !
Great stuff......Im the same as you, thanks for get me back into books
I just wanted to say that I think it’s wonderful that you have started your career of reading! I have always been a reader - I’ve taught English and writing- but I feel like within the last five years, I have become a true reader, which is odd . I think getting older helped. 😊
You’re my new favorite book-toker! I’ve always been too scared to go anywhere near Stephen King’s books since I’m a scardy cat but you’ve influenced me to try out 11/22/63! Excited!
I just started to really read this year. Started with The Way of Kings and have been blowing through the whole series
Yay so excited for this! ☺️
Great first video! Hope you continue with the TH-cam format. I’m currently listening to the last Mistborn book. The audiobooks are fantastic if you ever want to revisit the series.
Found your Tiktok a few weeks ago, and now I randomly found your TH-cam!! You are the best booktuber, so real and authentic!
welcome to youtube! I follow you on IG but I'm a long-form video kinda gal so I'm excited to see more here :)
Just found your channel… 3 videos in… guess I will have to watch them all! Great stuff!
Great video! That ending 😂 love it!
I need more!!! I wish it was longer!! But this is awesome congrats on the channel!
Great job! Welcome to BookTube!
So happy to see you here!
You are my newest favorite vlogger. Keep the videos coming.
You were great. Pretty similar story, I aldo never read and thought reading was BLAH although I loved going into bookstores and libraries, then maybe 3 years ago my friend recommended Mistborn to me, so while locked down during covid i bought and got hooked. 3 years later I now own over 50 books.

Looking forward to some long form videos you. Keep on keeping on pal!
Welcome to the TH-cams, my guy!! Been following your TikTok for ages. Love having you on this platform!
I saw your big books you want to read in 2024 video! If you want to buddy read or do a TH-cam livestream discussion or something for Under the Dome or Covenant of Water, I’m down!
Well that was wonderful Nick !! Keep 'em coming !! (Somehow, I think you might be Canadian ! ❤️🇨🇦❤️)
Stared really reading this year. Super excited to get into Mistborn
I've always read but not as much as I have since covid. I like booktubers that read across lots of genres. I like classics and I like horror, comedy and mysteries. I like beautifully written books and books that are a roller coaster ride. I subscribed. 😀
I started reading late too and the road by cormac McCarthy got me into it
That whistle tune is awesome!
Great job for your first TH-cam!
I've been waiting for this one!!!
You’re doing great!
So excited to have you on TH-cam I love your content. The longer format rocks! Have you read all of the Stormlight Archive or just Way of Kings so far?
Loved the extended version of reels! My most favorite part was the flute section 😅
I actually think you’d love both throne of glass and Crescent City books by sjm. Glad you started a book tube channel
It's so good to see you over on booktube; I love your booksta so can't wait for more long-form content:)) I really need to read more fantasy, Mistborn may be where its at...
Btw just finished and you smashed the hobbit song on that tin whistle!
I like big books and i cannot lie😂u said that without even realising something...
Also you played the flute beautifully🎉
The Sanderlanche is the term for his book endings! Love Warbreaker as a great standalone and Tess of the Emerald Sea for something more whimsical and a quick read.
Binging your videos currently. A voice we need in the booktube community. I was in your shoes 6 to 7 years ago and booktubers were so well read, their opinions didn’t mesh with how I saw books as a novice reader. There’s a certain baggage that collects as you gain experience and it’s nice to hear such a fresh perspective.
I am so excited for this!!!!! Eeeek!!!
So good to see your channel. My reading journey started with Harry potter.
I did not enjoy a court of roses and thorns too much. But overall was a good series.
Keep up the good work!
⭐️✨Great to see you on TH-cam ✨⭐️
