Here's a fun word: tsundoku
It's a japanese word that means buying books and letting them pile up unread. I am a tsundoku sensei.
what's the point of buying books then if you don't read them?
@@emmalongefay2804 usually because I’m already reading something else. Like I have these two books that I’ve had for a while now and i haven’t read but I got them because they usually sell out when I wanted to get them so I got them quick before they sell out again but I’ll get to them eventually
@@wilbertjimenez9400 yeah me too like i have 5 Books in my tbr but I see people with an entire shelf ! It blows my mind loo
@@emmalongefay2804 by your co.ment i can tell you are not a reader
@@snehathakur678 yeah i am lol what do you mean
I feel you could be THE asmr-Booktuber tbh. Surely that's a great niche?
Ahh tell us your reaction for Anne of Green Gables! I just read it for the first time this year, absolutely blew me away I actually am reading the second one now. It’s unbelievably comforting and has created the most safe and warm little place for me to escape to. Highly recommend the feel good book for everyone who hasn’t read 🙂
She looks happy. Which makes us, viewers, happy. Then us transmiting the love and hapiness to our families. And so and so it keeps the chain going. And then the entire world is happy. Which makes aliens happy. Good video btw.
This was such a sweet comment :) Thank you!

I love hearing your voice 🤩🤩🤩
After pillars of the earth you should read. A world without end its a sequal. There are three in the Ken follet series and are based in a town just up the road from me. If you enjoy the books there is a BBC series of the same name for each book. I loved the books and the series x
Hey, there's a "w" missing on that url :) thought you'd like to know.
Your last book show n tell video you did was immediately put into my “favorites.” And this video is going immediately into..you guessed it..MY FAVORITES!! I’m a huge book worm and get so relaxed from book sounds/tapping. And you have such a nice “teacher” sound to your whisper. I love it!
I've never been able to read books because I just can't concentrate. Maybe it's my autism. I really wish I could read because the idea of sitting down with a book suits me perfectly. I do enjoy audiobooks though and maybe I need to explore more audiobooks. Anyway, you're awesome, Sarah. I hope things are going well in Mexico for you :)
I can only read a tiny bit at a time so it takes many many days for me to get through a book, unless the book is so riveting that I have to find out what happens
@@eilis5341 I understand. I’ve had similar experiences. I find myself thinking ‘wait, what was that page about?’ and having to read it all again!
Definitely audiobooks. I started reading again 2 years ago using exclusively audiobooks and I love it. Best time to the day is when I'm listening to one.
@@easternadventures9978 Sounds great. I should definitely enjoy more ☺️
You can also use that Libby app for audiobooks! Completely free, if you’re in the US at least
I would love a video with your favorite young adult novels! Or books you loved as a kid that helped you recognize your love of reading! love your videos
Your light blue nails against the back of the King Arthur book cover was just mesmerizing! Those colors matched perfectly, and sent shivers down my spine✨
Love to see Pillars of the Earth recommended! It’s one of my all-time favorite books, and was truly an experience unlike anything I’d read before. It manages to turn the mundane lives of people into something grandiose and epic - like the author has this insane, profound ability to make things that don’t seem interesting completely engrossing.
I LOVE books that make "everyday" lives grand. Excited to finish it!
@@SarahLavenderASMR you should check out “Olympus, Texas” by Stacey Swann. I just finished it and it was incredible. A generational tale set in a single week, and every character has a Greek parallel; even the local pub is called Terpsichore’s!
Anne of Green Gables was my favorite book when I was growing up. Anne is so positive and enthusiastic that she makes me smile, even when things aren't going her way.
I used to read books like crazy when I was younger. Really from elementary school until college- and then I just got busy and life got in the way, and I struggle to pick up a book nowadays. When I do, I usually finish it really quickly, and then don't read again for awhile.
I'm fascinated by them still though, and always trying to collect them. Love hearing about new and different books, and the papery sounds from them are very relaxing!
I think this is super common! I also read less than I did as a kid. Sometimes it seems like a chore, but I try to consider it a healthy habit and it helps me power through some more boring bits of books. If you wanna get back into it, try a shorter, fast-paced book with tons of good reviews!
I use the Libby app for nearly all of my reading 🤗 so fun to get book recommendations and hear relaxing reviews!
I am a librarian, and love your book posts so much. And Martha Wells is great!!
Dream job
So happy you're a merlin fan! One of my favourite TV shows ever!
Breakfast of Champions is my favorite book ever! So happy/surprised to see that here. I love Vonnegut so much
This was great Sarah, your book videos are some of my favourites. You're getting really good throwing in different triggers throughout! The finger flutters were enough to keep me listening to the whole audible ad in the beginning
Mauve ASMR has top-notch book reviews!!!
If you haven't already, you MUST read Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine! Eleanor is relatable and funny, and the writing is top-notch.
Call me quiet is an amazing ASMRtist that also talks about her love for books 😊
I read Pillars of the Earth years ago and two things I can recall is that is was an amazing story and also that I’ve rarely ever hated an evil character as much as I did in that book!
Ooooo I love a good evil character, but I love them even more when they have a good backstory!
These are my favourite vid from you, the book reads/talks about your favs/tapping/page turning/whispers. Love them ❤️
I would love to see an updated video on your reviews of these books after you have read them! Especially the pillars of the earth!
I love love love the way you talk about books. So interesting and at the same time relaxing, the perfect combo! Thank you x
The once and future king is brilliant! I think it's actually a series of books published together. I've read the first three, and the Sword in the Stone is one of my favourite books. And if you loved Earthsea, you'll love this! Great video.
Thanks Ben! Excited to read it! Makes sense it is a series, it's a loooong book haha
I hope you love Anne of Green Gables Sarah. It was one of my favorites as a young girl and if you do, you need to check out the PBS series done earlier than Anne with an E. Love it (also good but the first has a special place in my heart) and I agree about Little Women, it was never as engaging to me!!💕💕
Thank you Mary! 💕
Booktuber asmr was my thing for a while, which is actually how I found this very channel. I like sunnydays and Taylor asmr for asmr book videos
Dostoevsky's Notes From Underground is a nice quick read that's part philosophy, part hilarious rambling & self-sabotage.
Just bought The Brothers Karamazov :0 I'll admit I'm a bit intimidated by his writing haha. I've heard Russian authors are infamous for their amount of characters to keep track of (who in turn, all have nicknames)...
@@SarahLavenderASMR If you can handle the GoT books, I'm sure you'll manage ☺
my favorite videos!! 💕💕💕conversations with friends will become a tv show im so excited
do you like conversations or normal people more? very excited for sally’s new book
@@michaelcummings8763 for me I liked normal people more but they are both amazing, as are her short stories
oh hey an Audible sponsor, very cool!
super excited to see you post more frequently!!
I love your videos about books! They are the most interesting and relaxing, plus they're making me wanna read more 🤩
This seems so conversational and naturally relaxing, like chatting with a friend. Not to mention the tapping is excellent!
Sarah, Thank you so much for comforting me! You are a really sweet friend!
I’m trying to get into reading more frequently so this video was perfect💓
Pillars of the Earth is my all time favorite book. Stick with it and you'll be glad you read to the end.
Booktube and asmr are the 2 things I mainly watch on TH-cam- this is great. Mauve asmr also has great book rec asmr videos
Fantastic video as always. I get the best ASMR when someone is talking really in depth about stuff. My recommendation would be my favourite book if you haven't already tried it: Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell. It can be hard going at first but it's written in such a different format and the six stories across time are all incredible. The first book I read I can describe as beautiful.
Yay!!! Your book videos are my favorite type of video you make! I’m a bookworm and these help me to relax and fall asleep better than just about anything. I can’t wait to watch it in just a moment! Thank you so much for making this video!!!
This video was amazing!! The combination of your voice and opinions on books is unreal.
If you haven’t read The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho yet I highly recommend it! It’s absolutely chock full of amazing quotes, it’s a nice quick read, and it’s a perfect story to read right as you’ve moved to a new city/country!
book asmr is my favourite thing ever!!
These book reading vids are some of my favorites!
You are right about "Conversations with Friends" being adapted into a TV show ! They have already announced the cast, and it's made by the same creative team that made the "Normal People" TV show ! Production will begin in the coming months ! Great video btw, your books videos are the best !
Oh wow! Yay! :D And thank you Matthieu!
So happy to get another book themed video! Also Conversations with Friends is apparently getting adapted into a tv show for Hulu right now, it was announced just a few days ago! Much love from Dublin❤️
Oh wow haha! Excited! And thank you :)
I actually liked "conversations with friends" more than "normal people"😄 I also think it's an important book because there aren't many books out there mentioning endometriosis.
Adored this as well as the other previous book review videos. I could listen to you talk about books for ever! Re-subscribed to Audible and added Once and Future and Incredibly Close to my Amazon wishlist after watching list. You can't do enough of these videos, thank you. ☺️
Yay! Thank you! I definitely plan on creating more and more book videos! :)
I'm so late commenting this but if you'd like a nice book recommendation of a narrative that follows the perspective of a child, I'd highly suggest "Kramp", by María José Ferrada. she is a Chilenian author that has always written children's books, and Kramp is her first novel directed to a larger audience. it's wonderful, really! it follows the little girl M and her father D not only through their own adventures as salesmen, but also the cenarious of the political changes going on in Chile at their time. it's short and beautiful, definitely worth cheking it out! :)
I agree with the drawings in books. I feel like for a visual learner like me it helps to understand the story better.
Yay, book video!!! Been waiting for another one. The Audible part caught my attention because I love Walter Tevis, who wrote The Queen's Gambit. He's a great author. He also wrote The Hustler, The Color Of Money, and The Man Who Fell To Earth which were all made into pretty quality movies. And my favorite of his is Mockingbird, which is now his only novel that hasn't been adapted for the screen lol. I also love Murakami, but that's one I haven't gotten to yet though it's on my shelf. I had to take a break from him for a while after reading 1Q84.
There were so many dope bookstores and just street vendors selling books in Mexico City. It was lovely to see.
You are an ASMR star. You are very knowledgeable with your content which is the real trick to being good!
So odd I was thinking about wanting to read new books today and hoping there was some asmr video reviewing books.. made my day thank you 😂😂😂😂🤣
your book videos are my favorites of yours! love getting to learn your taste and add books to my to-read list, which is already way too long.
Try a bookstore called El Péndulo, you'll love it, I guarantee it. There are several around the city.
Coming back a few months later to let you know that I’m halfway through Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close as per your review and I ABSOLUTELY agree!! The writing is phenomenal…. I’ve begun highlighting sections that resonate with me. Thanks for the recommendation and I hope for more!!
Yay. Thank you for uploading another one so soon!
i'd love a full book recommendation video!!
So tingly! You just made my night! 😴👍🏻💕
I do the same thing with reading a lot on my kindle and then buying the physical book of it’s a favorite. My husband thinks it’s weird so it’s nice to know someone else does it too. I love these book videos you do. Have you read anything by Amy Barton? I’m a big fan. Especially the Kricket series.
Thanks Sara! I haven't, but I see she's on Audible so I'll have to check her out! :)
love ur videos they help me sleep thank you for all you do
If you're into fantasy/science fiction, I highly recommend reading the Grimnoir Chronicles series by Larry Correia, I'm listening to it on audible while I work currently and it's excellent!
They did make a tv show of Conversation with friends ur prediction was correct !!
Before I fall asleep, here are some books I recommend!
~The Green Mile. My favorite book ever, I've read it many times and I absolutely adore it. The message behind it is very deep in my opinion, and it's written beautifully
~The song of Achilles. A very very sad book, of course it doesn't "respect" all of the details from the Iliad, but it's really fascinating and also super super sad.
~Pollyanna. A very peculiar story in my opinion. The plot is easy and very nice, but at the same time it teachers how to see life from a different point of view
Breakfast of champions is one of my favorites, hope you enjoy!
Same! I reread it at the start of lockdown, seemed fitting lol. I feel like everyone's bad chemicals were taking effect.
A great study in reading books ,I liked today's subject Sarah, Thank you.
i loved the queens gambit show! i'm definitely planning on reading the book at some point.
Anne of Green Gables is the most wonderful book! Highly recommend! 👒🏡
I’m huge book lover so these are my favourite videos of yours! They are so relaxing and interesting 🥰
Thank you Ashley! :)
I’m OBSESSED with your earrings
I recommend Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley. Based on these books, I truly believe you will love it. My dad gave it to me to read on my 18th birthday. Very very good. It has a cult following per say.
oh my goth, another video with books, i'm so so happy ! thank you so much
Highly recommend Library of Whispers ASMR
Kafka on the Shore is such a good book! I love it!
Haruki Murakami is one of my favourite authors - I recently read his book “The Colourless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage” and loved it! The first book of his I read was Norwegian wood and i found both to be so eloquently written.
Oh, I just had to comment when I saw Anne of Green Gables! That cover is so gorgeous... I hope you liked it, it‘s my favourite book (even series) of all time!!
Just discovered your channel, love it! please do even more book videos!
ASMR is probably only type of video where listening to ads gives you the very thing for which you are watching the video in the first place
If you are ever looking for other fictional books that are a quick read and examine topics like good and evil, I recommend The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wild, and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson. I read them both recently, really enjoyed them, and found them fascinating. I consider them both to be cautionary tales, and they are two of my favorite classics now. I also like to read short books in between long ones and they worked really well to be my “fillers.”
Really enjoyed the video! Thanks so much!
Yes! Those are both great! :D if you like short interesting classics with maybe even dark or sci fi twist you should try “the island of dr. Moreau” by hg wells I blasted through that book so interesting and creepy!
I enjoyed the Picture of Dorian Gray a lot! Thank you Hope! :)
Thanks for the suggestion!
No problem!
I fr celebrate when I see a new video idk why I just get happier
Yesss another book video! Love these so much!
I love the murderbot diaries!! Literally my fav books!
i was wondering the same thing about ASMR book haul / review. I think that it is something that is different and relaxing.
Your best kind of videos. Looking forward to more. You have great taste in authors.
Sarah i wanted to ask you a recommendation on a novel book that you might love, i love romance stories but not typical, something interesting perhaps? I don't know if that's a genre that you read since I've never heard you about it i believe... I really like hearing you about the books you love and why you love them, it's been a while that i haven't felt like reading a book and since I've started watching your book related asmr videos ik woke up the reading interest again, so thank you ❤️
If you like books playing with timelines…. You should read either Dark Matter or Recursion by Blake Crouch! Both mind blowing
I loved Dark Matter!!
Your knowledge of books seems so impressive to me 😂
Bookstores where i live are closed at the moment and will be closed for the forseeable future so this is making me real jealous right now 🤣 I've had to resort to reading the pile of books I had that I'd been avoiding for years.. less than ideal
My local bookstore would do curbside pickup, which was super nice! Though I do miss walking around and perusing haha
little echo sound makes me relax😇💕
bookswithchloe has an asmr channel called asmrwithchloe! It’s not an asmr book channel per se, but it’s great! Also, one of my absolute favorite booktubers 😁
Do you have Goodreads that we can see what you have read (currently reading)?
If you are a cat lover you should read Murakami books.
I do but it's chaotic and outdated - I really should work on making a public one haha
Special and beatiful video!
And the books... Super Beautiful!!!❤❤❤
Sarah Lavender ASMR thank you so very much! Good luck 💞
reading irl < listening to some girl who doesn't know I exist whisper about reading
HI! When you said you liked buying used books, I immediately thought of Coyoacan, specifically about Miguel Angel de Quevedo and Universidad (main avenues there) because there are many secondhand bookstores there, and many of them carry books in English!
I'm super excited to check this out!! Thanks Sofia!
I love booktube! How i discovered asmr is from gabbyreads who has done some asmr in a few reading vlogs
Omg absolutely love your book asmr videos!! ❤️
Love her book related videos 😆
I think I originally found your channel thru a book video. Glad to see another one!
For obvious reasons... these are always my favorite videos on your channel! I actually just read Murderbot in my book club! I ended up getting all the audio for the sequels too! 🖤🤖
This is the first video of yours I’ve watched. You have a relaxing whisper and I love hearing book recommendations! Also, I’m sure you get this a lot, but the whole time I was watching I was thinking “she looks so like someone but I can’t put my finger on it…” then realised, it’s Emma Watson! You look just like her!
Thank you so much! And haha yep I get told that a lot 😋
Book haul?! I like the sound of that. 😄💜💙👍
