Welcome, so glad you’re here. Love to see people close to my age joining the community.

Love the idea of reading magazines with your daughter. I’m going to try that with my son. He’s a teenager doesn’t want me to read to him any longer. 😢 He’s a huge Manga fan but still dips into those Diary of a Wimpy Kid books now & then! 😊📚 If I ever take the plunge into being a booktuber I could make a dozen videos just on all the great series I’ve read to him. 😂

Welcome to BookTube! I also enjoy reading in the yard. My son is 18 now, first year college and I read the Percy Jackson series with him somewhere around 6th or 7th grade.
My dad read to me every night, and a few years ago before we lost him I crocheted him a reading blanket.
I miss him very much, and decided 2024 to change my 5yr crochet channel into a booktube.😊
Father and daughter bond over books is so special and remembered for a lifetime!

Welcome to Booktube - I hope you're able to get your books out of storage soon. I'm in a similar situation - I just moved into a new home and don't even own a bookshelf because, well, my last one was burned in a forest fire three years ago. My books, most of them, are out in my new shed. Yes, I have a Booktube channel.

All subbed up and looking forward to your content sir. 😊😊🙏🙏👊👊

Welcome to Booktube! Reading with my daughter is one of my favorite memories.

Since you asked: Yes! having a book review channel HAS changed the way I read. I try still only to read what I want to read and not chase trends, but while I'm reading I'm constantly thinking about how to construct my thoughts in a review, which isn't great... Something i'm trying to get over. Also, I work full time, and i have a teenager at home too, so i understand the demands on time, and i prioritize in this way: self care, family needs, work, my own writing, my reading, youtube channel work, and TV. it's a trickle down approach. I'm reluctant to try to make money on my channel because then i'll feel more obligated to give time to it when i don't have it to give. Anyway, i think you're great on camera, and your goal of coming across as natural and conversational is dead on. lastly, i have that same IKEA chair, except mine is orange and it's still in the box in my attic😂 good luck!!

Ok, sleepy...you're guilting me into doing the Newbie Book Tag! Good video!

[christinaalvarez]

I love how you read popular science books aloud with your daughter. You'll have those memories forever. ❤I lost my dad in 2022 and miss him everyday.

[ObscureBookAdventures]

Welcome to BookTube. I also like to read outside when the the sun is out.
I recently started to read science fiction and fantasy. I did participate in Simmerian September.

[TheBookHermie]

Hi! I hope you're enjoying your channel. I have enjoyed this first video and I look forward to seeing more of your videos!

[OoLaLaFrenchGirl]

Hello there! Welcome to BookTube. I look forward to seeing your content and hearing your thoughts about all things bookish.

[PeculiarNotions]

Welcome and I 100% agree about the "job interview" feeling to some of the questions.

[megan.e.amato.]

Immediate great vibes from this — so happy YouTube recommended your channel to me!

[pleasereadyourbook]

Nice job with this tag, looking forward to more.

[simonKagree]

Hmm, guess I sorta have to subscribe because we share some interests and physical characteristics. Not a booktuber but could inadvertently stumble into it.

[TheGrapeJellyLibrary]

Hey Damien!
Welcome. Love reading in the backyard and just like you, a little bit in the front. 😊 I bet after you fix your space up, it will look awesome.

[bookssongsandothermagic]

Hiya and welcome to Booktube Damien. Love fantasy and science fiction too. Love that you read with your daughter. Great video.

[dqan]

Welcome to BookTube! No book videos on my end yet. Maybe in the new year. Looking forward to yours.
