Honestly, I prefer this type of video over hearing about the books everyone is talking about. Please do more of them!

I love this! I'm so sick of reading the same, hyped, YA books... Rainbow Rowell, Cassandra Clare, Sarah J. Maas, John Green, I love you all, I just need something different. I don't want to be judged or questioned for reading that small book that is simply filled with short stories about somebodies everyday life by an author people have never heard of, or the non fiction book that someone saw on their parents' bookshelf and would never think to pick up, or that history book that people just have no idea why I'm reading because "you're not even in school Shannon, you don't have to read that!" etc etc etc. I read to learn. I read to escape and not necessarily to Hogwarts or Camp Half Blood, but instead to the real past and present, just those that aren't MY past and present - to the minds of those who have lived before, and into the lives of those who are walking the same earth as me now. I cannot get that from the books in the "most popular teen fiction" section in Waterstones, which is why I am SO thankful for these kinds of videos. <3

Unpopular, neglected, unsung books? * pulls up chair & ginormous bag of popcorn *

I this video so much. Please do it again. That Frida journal looks stunning. Books about underground and the Underground are always interesting. Flaneuse is a book I’ve been debating for a while it got quite the UK buzz for a while. Ps. I also loved your competitive reading video but couldn’t think of something coherent to say.

I think when booktubers show unpopular books, that's what brings out their unique personality the most, so it is always interesting to watch, much more than the same books all the time. And why would you think noone would be interested in these? Most of them sound really interesting to me. The Frida Kahlo book looks amazing!

Thank you for talking about books that no one else is talking about! Personally I do not want to hear 1000 different opinions about the same 3-5 books. I want to hear 3-5 solid opinions on 1000 books that may interest me.

OH MY GOD arriel, your videos are so different and outstanding ! please do more, especially chatty ones <3 much love

[LukeMaynard]

Speaking as someone who writes books that nobody ever reads, this kind of video is a huge public service. The writing community is richer and more diverse and healthier when you walk off the beaten path a little. Please keep doing them!

Spanish was your first language??? WHAT?!?! (I’m currently learning Spanish) I rarely read any book-tube-popular books, unless it’s something I’m really interested in but I love booktube as I love seeing people’s enthusiasm around reading and I do sometimes find new books I want to read. While I don’t want to read these books you want to read, I do want to see your excitement and passion and love for reading and your anticipation for these books! Please please do a part 2!

It's refreshing to see a booktuber who talks about diffrent kinds of books. I would love to see more. <3

[kshirley]

I loooove hearing about everyone else’s interests when it comes to the different types of books they love! Especially when the books are “unpopular” it opens up new doors for others as well.

Even though this is 3 years old it is gold. Thank you for staying away from all the hype and all the YA

[SilviaKay]

What a lovely idea for a video! Please make more of these 😊I love how you are (I think?) the only big booktuber who talks about niche/obscure books. It's encouraging for other members of the community because it's easy to get the impression that reading tons of super popular YA new releases is somehow a requirement. so... just keep being you :)

Books I want to read that nobody cares about...95% of what I read falls into this category I think, haha

[elyssa]

PLEASE DO ANOTHER ONE OF THESE!!! I like mainstream book reviews but I LOVE hearing about new titles I wouldn’t have found otherwise (I read Birds, Art, Life, Death because of your review and adored it!). I’m definitely gonna be checking out ‘Why Poetry’ and ‘Flâneuse’ because of this 💛

THANK YOU and any youtuber who recommends books people don´t talk about. These are my favourite kind of content on here!

[Teresebooo]

You're paving the way for adult booktube - go for it!

[TheReadingWerewolf]

The question of whether or not to publish the private journals of famous dead people is a very interesting topic to think about.

I loved this video. It’s like walking into a good indie bookshop and finding a book that you never would have thought to look for. I’d love to see more like this, good job!
