I NEARLY DIED AT TAUTALOGY 😂 Seriously, what were the odds of you repeating it and repetition also being sort of the definition of it, omg I can't 💀 I loved this so much, I can't believe you call this mediocre content LaLa! I mean I literally learned new words and laughed and enjoyed all 30 minutes of it, THAT IS NOT MEDIOCRE CONTENT 👌🏼💖
Plage is beach in french and coup de foudre is love at first sight in french. I love that everyday words in one language are used as a somewhat posh way to say the same thing in another language.
Diapason is French too and the word "psittacine" is almost like "psittacisme" and it means the same thing. A good way to know more English words = be from another language lol
I don't get how you could EVER say your content is mediocre. Like no, not even I am that big of a perfectionist. YOUR CHANNEL IS GOLD. The most creative booktuber I know.
this is like seventh grade AP English class meets booktube & I'm *more than* here for it. thanks for being so thorough and committed to your videos, Lala! :)
You are such a creative person! I really admire and appreciate all the effort you put into your channel, it makes me want to watch every video you make because I know it will be good! :) This one was no different!
This is such a neat, different idea for recommendations - plus your first rec was one I loved, so of course I have to watch the rest Nepenthe reminds me of More Happy Than Not, it’s not a potion, but characters are able to forgot sorrowful things by a process.
other people have pointed out plage and coup de foudre are french words so let me add to the fun and say that Legerdemain is also from French! "léger de main" means light-handed/slight of hand.
I feel like you have the best, and most original content. The things and ideas you come up with for videos are so fun and just completely unique. I kind of fell out of love with book tube watching all the same tbrs/hauls/wraps ups, but your closet unhauls, buying 5 books that look like fav books, reading lowest tbr books have kept me a loyal and consistent follower and fan of your channel. Thank you for being you and creating fun content that keeps us all coming back.
I love how you took this style of video and made it your own! When claddagh came up I was so excited because I have a claddagh necklace from my boyfriend who is from Northern Ireland. I actually knew a word!!!!
I'm breaking my silence and making my first ever TH-cam comment (and it's so long omg) because I gasped out loud when you mentioned The Death of Mrs. Westaway. I wouldn't call it popular? And I've never heard it mentioned before, but I've just started reading it after impulse buying it at Costco! I'm excited to continue a book about a character skilled at legerdemain. Some September W.o.t.D recommendations for you: Interloper: A Stranger in the House by Shari Lapena Psittacine: Challenger Deep by Neal Shusterman (There is a parrot. He's important) Sibilate: The Wildings by Nilanjana Roy Today's W.o.t.D is Rewild! The Hundred Names of Darkness by Nilanjana Roy. (Is recommending a sequel to a previous rec cheating? Oh well) I'm really impressed by your channel. Your videos are so unique to booktube, and I'm blown away by all the prep work and time and effort you put into them. Keep up the terrific work!
I love your content. I get excited when you post new content. Whether you think it’s lame or not, I’ll still watch it. I enjoy rewatching your content when I’m burned out from other bookstubers or I haven’t watched a video from you in a few days.
This was brilliant, well done for finding a book for each word, some were really hard! Would love to see and updated version with all the books that you’ve read since then 😄
I love your creative videos! They are perfect! But I also love your monthly videos like the wrap up, TBR, bullet journal, etc. You basically have the perfect channel.
I’m amazed at your creativity for videos and also hpw constant you are at these videos that are filmed through a month or even longer like your 5star predictions! Keep it up!! Love your channel
In Spell book for the lost and found, olive's mom has a Claddagh ring! It's not a huge plot point or anything though lol. also, I love the after life of holly chase! it was so good!
You have such unique content. Generally I don't really have the same taste in books as you, but I'm obsessed with your videos because they're so creative!
The weirdest thing just happened to me. I watched the beginning of this video and then went back to my homework of reading The Scarlet Letter, and what word do I find in it? NEPENTHE!! “I know not Lethe nor Nepenthe.” (70) Without this video I wouldn’t have known what it was! 😝
i was reading meet cute and stopped to watch this video and the MOMENT you recommended meet cute, i held it up to the screen and was like, "I HAVE THAT RIGHT HERE!" all excitedly
I loved this video so much! Blellum was definitely an interesting word ... I don't know if this would've worked, but Eliza and Her Monsters by Francesca Zappia? Maybe not for the main character, but for her love interest? I dunno, there were some interesting words for sure!
I am so addicted to your videos 😂 I'm loving that you've been uploading every day, it's always the first video I click on in the morning. You could do this forever right? 😉 I love this idea, so many new types of recommendations! Thank you 💕
Was anyone else yelling "Challenger Deep!! Challenger Deep!!" at the screen while Lala was looking for a parrot book? This is seriously one of my favorite videos you've ever done. Honestly would watch you do one of these every month!
Such a great video idea! Learned a few new words and over-all had a grand old time :) Kudos for 30 days straight (almost ;)) of filming. You always have such fun videos!
I’ve been thinking of making a vocabulary page for my bullet journal, so that every time I come across a new word in my reading (or wherever), I can write it down along with the definition, and always have it there to reference since it’s so easy to forget the meaning of new words! I’m hoping maybe physically writing them and their meanings down would help me actually learn and remember them. and this video just reminded me of that idea, which I had forgotten 😂 this was really fun, thanks Kayla! 🍎🤓💜
I know i am late watching this but i think it would be a cool video to do a part 2 of. Since it was 2 years ago. Very much enjoyed and yes i did learn many new words also.
For Cyclopean, my mind immediately goes to the Percy Jackson series. Even if you're not a fan of YA, if you like magic, mythology, humor, or honestly just some really fun relationships (both friends and romantic) its a great read. I'm not in the mood to bother reading the follow-up series atm, but that is great as well
You're so creative lately! I love your video ideas. I knew a few of these words, I didn't know most of them (but then English is not my first language, it is the second language I learned). I think plage is actually the French word for 'beach'. Interregnum comes from the Latin words 'inter' (between) and 'regnum' (kingdom). I loved the atweel / surely / shirley part.
This was such a great idea. You are a very clever lady indeed! I just love all of your videos! A book that you and Liam have with a parrot in it is The Magic Misfits by Neil Patrick Harris. It came in one of the Owlcrate Jr boxes, and there is a parrot in the magic shop. :) As soon as you read the definition of gnathonic I immediately though of You by Caroline Kepnes as well.
This is an excellent idea! And your videos are always so creative and out of the box. I admire your content actually--if I had the nerve to start a book tube channel I’d take inspiration from yours ❤️❤️
This is such a genius idea. Lala, thanks for making this creative video. A lot of the book seems really interesting, thank you for the recommendation!!!
This video is not applesauce. I really loved the tautology bit with you happily repeating it and then finding out the definition. Fantastic video and there is definitely no mediocre content on your channel.
With Your first word the first book that came to my mind is Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver. Where the main character relives the same day over and over again. Locavore and sweeting I think of Garden Spells and the sequel First Frost by Sarah Addison Allen.
Not sure if I remember correctly, but wasn’t there a parrot in I’ll Give You the Sun? Either this or in another contemporary YA that I don’t remember right now.
your content isn’t mediocre, it’s SUPERIOR
30 Days
30 Words
30 Books
*30 Minutes*
mediocre? You are so creative & I love your content so much!
I KNOW SAME
Girlfriend I'm just amazed that you got yourself camera ready every day for a month.
my thoughts exactly
30 WORDS, 30 BOOKS AND 30 MINUTES... (:
30 minutes and 1 second. Lala your standards are slipping! ;)
I NEARLY DIED AT TAUTALOGY 😂 Seriously, what were the odds of you repeating it and repetition also being sort of the definition of it, omg I can't 💀 I loved this so much, I can't believe you call this mediocre content LaLa! I mean I literally learned new words and laughed and enjoyed all 30 minutes of it, THAT IS NOT MEDIOCRE CONTENT 👌🏼💖
"That's for sure a pokemon." 😂👏🏻 I love Robbie's commentaries in the background 😂
All the ap-plage for this video! (That was funnier in my head.) I feel like I just took a very entertaining English class 💜
ATWEEELL LADS THIS VIDEO IS SHIRLEY THE BEST.
Consistently the best booktuber!
Tautology was one of the only words I already knew, was laughing so hard when you kept repeating the sound example
i love her so much omg
Plage is beach in french and coup de foudre is love at first sight in french. I love that everyday words in one language are used as a somewhat posh way to say the same thing in another language.
Diapason is French too and the word "psittacine" is almost like "psittacisme" and it means the same thing. A good way to know more English words = be from another language lol
Exactly what I was thinking haha those were the only words I knew the definition of😂
I don't get how you could EVER say your content is mediocre. Like no, not even I am that big of a perfectionist. YOUR CHANNEL IS GOLD. The most creative booktuber I know.
this is like seventh grade AP English class meets booktube & I'm *more than* here for it. thanks for being so thorough and committed to your videos, Lala! :)
You are such a creative person! I really admire and appreciate all the effort you put into your channel, it makes me want to watch every video you make because I know it will be good! :) This one was no different!
"I'M A LOCAVORE!"
Oh my God, I was laughing so hard! Then I hit tautology and almost died! 😂
This video is by turns educational and hilarious. I'm loving the daily uploads. I knew like 7 of these words, tops.
Coup de foudre is in french and is also used to say love at first sight
But if we translate it, it is "hit by lightning"
❤❤❤
This is such a neat, different idea for recommendations - plus your first rec was one I loved, so of course I have to watch the rest
Nepenthe reminds me of More Happy Than Not, it’s not a potion, but characters are able to forgot sorrowful things by a process.
other people have pointed out plage and coup de foudre are french words so let me add to the fun and say that
Legerdemain is also from French! "léger de main" means light-handed/slight of hand.
Tautology had me CHOKING HAHAHHA
I LOVE this idea of recommending a book based on the word of the day. Also, your hair looks great!
I am totally going to steal the idea behind this video for my freshmen English class to do with our vocab lists. Love this idea! THANKS
SHE STRiCKS AGAIN WITH THE BEST CONTENT ON TH-cam
I feel like you have the best, and most original content. The things and ideas you come up with for videos are so fun and just completely unique. I kind of fell out of love with book tube watching all the same tbrs/hauls/wraps ups, but your closet unhauls, buying 5 books that look like fav books, reading lowest tbr books have kept me a loyal and consistent follower and fan of your channel. Thank you for being you and creating fun content that keeps us all coming back.
This video was just everything I needed: fun, nerdy, full of joy and good books! Please do it again soon!
You are without doubt one of the most creative BookTubers. :)
I love how you took this style of video and made it your own! When claddagh came up I was so excited because I have a claddagh necklace from my boyfriend who is from Northern Ireland. I actually knew a word!!!!
My gosh your brain works so creatively. I’m consistently impressed by the video concepts you come up with.
The nerd in my LOVES this video idea. Yes, I often frequent the Dictionary app. You are awesome by the way!!! Love your new hair color.
I'm breaking my silence and making my first ever TH-cam comment (and it's so long omg) because I gasped out loud when you mentioned The Death of Mrs. Westaway. I wouldn't call it popular? And I've never heard it mentioned before, but I've just started reading it after impulse buying it at Costco! I'm excited to continue a book about a character skilled at legerdemain.
Some September W.o.t.D recommendations for you:

girl, you put so much effort & time into your videos, you booktube queen
I FREAKING LOVED THIS! You got so many random recommendations that you don't talk about often. LOVE ITTTT
I loved trying to pronounce the words before you looked them up! I hope you do this again, even if it isn't a month's worth of recs!
I love your content. I get excited when you post new content. Whether you think it’s lame or not, I’ll still watch it. I enjoy rewatching your content when I’m burned out from other bookstubers or I haven’t watched a video from you in a few days.
This was brilliant, well done for finding a book for each word, some were really hard! Would love to see and updated version with all the books that you’ve read since then 😄
I love this idea! You, genuinely, always come up with such interesting ideas and twists on other videos.
You have no idea how much FUN this video was to watch! I absolutely LOOOVED it and couldn’t stop watching 😍
I love your creative videos! They are perfect! But I also love your monthly videos like the wrap up, TBR, bullet journal, etc. You basically have the perfect channel.
"I had a coup de foudre with you when you were born from my woommbb." Best quote from the video literally me as a mom 😂❤
The amount of creativity and dedication that you have for this channel overwhelms me every time I see a video by you! ❤️
I’m amazed at your creativity for videos and also hpw constant you are at these videos that are filmed through a month or even longer like your 5star predictions! Keep it up!! Love your channel
I LOVE THAT THIS IS 30 MINS!!! I also completely disagree that you have mediocre content! You are my favorite and you're creativity is amazing :D
Love your profile pic 😉 The world is quiet here
As a linguist and bookworm, this is hands down my favorite video of yours. You're so creative, good job Lala!! 😁
In Spell book for the lost and found, olive's mom has a Claddagh ring! It's not a huge plot point or anything though lol. also, I love the after life of holly chase! it was so good!
You have such unique content. Generally I don't really have the same taste in books as you, but I'm obsessed with your videos because they're so creative!
Scry is also used in V. E. Schwab’s “A Darker Shade of Magic” 👍 you are so creative 💕
This was so great! 😄 Seeing how happy and proud you were of yourself when you pronounced a word right made my night 😊
Atweel, surely, Shirley Jackson LOL :)))
The weirdest thing just happened to me. I watched the beginning of this video and then went back to my homework of reading The Scarlet Letter, and what word do I find in it? NEPENTHE!! “I know not Lethe nor Nepenthe.” (70) Without this video I wouldn’t have known what it was! 😝
i was reading meet cute and stopped to watch this video and the MOMENT you recommended meet cute, i held it up to the screen and was like, "I HAVE THAT RIGHT HERE!" all excitedly
I'm so in love with this video and basically all your unique video ideas! You are booktube queen.
I like that this video showcased some older books and books I haven’t heard of before. Love this idea!
I am LOVING this video! you come up seriously with the best ideas.
I loved this video so much! Blellum was definitely an interesting word ... I don't know if this would've worked, but Eliza and Her Monsters by Francesca Zappia? Maybe not for the main character, but for her love interest? I dunno, there were some interesting words for sure!
I usually watch your videos in the mornings. It's evening and I'm having some level of anxiety so you're helping me calm down.
I love your book recommendation videos! They’re all so inventive so they never get boring!
You rock. I love how original your videos are and the variety of books you read. Keep up the great work
i fucking love you, you are SO original and it shows how hard you work to make good content. Keep it up girl
I am so addicted to your videos 😂 I'm loving that you've been uploading every day, it's always the first video I click on in the morning. You could do this forever right? 😉
I love this idea, so many new types of recommendations! Thank you 💕
This was totally fun!!!! I had a high school teacher who always did a Word of the Day. I’d love to do this with my kids!
You and your books are polychromatic! So many great recs and even the ones that are a stretch you make amusing in the choosing.
This is such a unique take on the random words challenge! Loved it!!
so WEED
SO MANY VIDEOS!!!! My whole day is set for the next couple hours!!!!!! I love your videos Lala, and they are not mediocre!!!
Was anyone else yelling "Challenger Deep!! Challenger Deep!!" at the screen while Lala was looking for a parrot book? This is seriously one of my favorite videos you've ever done. Honestly would watch you do one of these every month!
This video idea is INCREDIBLY CREATIVE! I loved this video!!!!!
Such a great video idea! Learned a few new words and over-all had a grand old time :) Kudos for 30 days straight (almost ;)) of filming. You always have such fun videos!

I know i am late watching this but i think it would be a cool video to do a part 2 of.
Since it was 2 years ago.
Very much enjoyed and yes i did learn many new words also.
Your videos of the past year have been just so good!
For Cyclopean, my mind immediately goes to the Percy Jackson series. Even if you're not a fan of YA, if you like magic, mythology, humor, or honestly just some really fun relationships (both friends and romantic) its a great read. I'm not in the mood to bother reading the follow-up series atm, but that is great as well
Standing ovation!!! Keep doing this! Maybe once every season...
"MEDIOCRE"?!?!?!?!??!! Literally the most original booktube content I have found after watching booktube for a year. 😻
You're so creative lately! I love your video ideas. I knew a few of these words, I didn't know most of them (but then English is not my first language, it is the second language I learned). I think plage is actually the French word for 'beach'. Interregnum comes from the Latin words 'inter' (between) and 'regnum' (kingdom). I loved the atweel / surely / shirley part.
MOST CLEVER VIDEO IDEA EVER! I love this!
This was genius! I love the idea for this video. It should be a tag video! I would love to see other booktubers do it too! Great job!
You should totally do this again! I loved it!
this is why you're my favourite booktuber. Amazing content always ♥
I knew 5 of these words. I feel like an intellectual! Absolutely love your videos Lala
This was such a great idea. You are a very clever lady indeed! I just love all of your videos! A book that you and Liam have with a parrot in it is The Magic Misfits by Neil Patrick Harris. It came in one of the Owlcrate Jr boxes, and there is a parrot in the magic shop. :) As soon as you read the definition of gnathonic I immediately though of You by Caroline Kepnes as well.
I loved this video Kayla! You have a talent of taking similar videos and twisting them to suit you and your personality! Well done!
This is an excellent idea! And your videos are always so creative and out of the box. I admire your content actually--if I had the nerve to start a book tube channel I’d take inspiration from yours ❤️❤️
This is such a genius idea. Lala, thanks for making this creative video. A lot of the book seems really interesting, thank you for the recommendation!!!
such a creative idea!! I love this and I got so many great book recommendations and learned soooooo many new words!!
You are the queen of content creation, this is such a cool idea!
This was such an amazing video.
Also, I loved the plot twist with applesauce's definition 😂
This video is not applesauce. I really loved the tautology bit with you happily repeating it and then finding out the definition. Fantastic video and there is definitely no mediocre content on your channel.
Your content is so creative!!! This was such a great idea and 30 minutes of Lala....YES PLEASE!!! I absolutely adore your videos!!! :)
This is such an amazing idea, please do a part 2 😍
The queen of creative booktube videos is back at it again
OMG R U SERIOUS!! This is the best thing ever in my life!!! I LOVE ur unique and fun contents!!! 😍😍
Always so creative! Loved this.
I love your videos! You are the most creative and original booktuber! I really dont know where this ideas come from but just everything is amazing.
With Your first word the first book that came to my mind is Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver. Where the main character relives the same day over and over again. Locavore and sweeting I think of Garden Spells and the sequel First Frost by Sarah Addison Allen.
Such a clever, fun video! I really enjoyed it. And I also know the word scry from The Raven Boys!
Not sure if I remember correctly, but wasn’t there a parrot in I’ll Give You the Sun? Either this or in another contemporary YA that I don’t remember right now.
I love your creativity Lala!
This is so creative and unique! Well done.
I have been waiting my whole life for this
