Setting up my New Bookshelf & tour 📚 light academia

Hello, and welcome to my channel. This is a space for study enthusiasts and tea drinkers, and those who spend hours ambling around libraries and book shops. I hope that my videos can provide motivation and encourage you to be productive, but without feeding into Hustle Culture. I think that productivity is all about enjoying what we do, and finding time for things that bring us happiness or will bring us happiness in the future -- and I hope to celebrate this kind of living on my channel.

Organising bookshelves has to be one of the most (if not THE most) therapeutic and satisfactory activity you can do!📚🧡✨

**gives up a big bed to make more room for books** "she needs to sort out her priorities..." you made the right choice Ruby😆😆

I have that set of Charles Dickens. I was given them 60 years ago, by our neighbours who had previously run a private lending library. Wherever I have moved to during my adult life, they have always come with me. 🙂

I couldn’t describe how much I love Ruby’s channel - not only motivating and productive, but it makes me feel better. We’ve got very similar interests, and I am very excited of hosting a Victorian tea party for my friends, based on what you said and showed in your video about how you hosted a Victorian era tea party. I really wanted a new video from you today about your bookshelf, and you just posted it!! Magical, you are divine, Ruby!! 🫖😇🤍

Ruby’s Room! You have done a remarkable makeover of your room. It’s cozy and bright and every inch of it has your personal touch.

This is so relaxing to watch! Would you consider re-organizing the library downstairs and making a video about it, Ruby?

[jaymiequill]

There is something so satisfying about watching someone organise a bookshelf!
Your videos are so inspirational Ruby 💗

[crumblecrumble]

is this just a me thing, or do any other very bookwormy people love the smell of new and old books?

I put tiny iridescent star stickers on the lower spine of each one of the books I’ve read. It’s so satisfying to see them on my books shelves and knowing their meaning ⭐️ 📚 💫 .

Also, I have bee contemplating getting a labels made with my name and a book quote to put in all of my books. I love when I purchase a used book and reading the name/inscription inside.

Hey Ruby, I understand hoe important it is to build a environment which ultimately helps to make our life more productive and disciplined. We need to have good relationship with the objects around us in our environment. Can you please make a video on how can we make our environment (study room) in a way that it triggers cues that makes our lives more productive.

The sound of grabbing books and putting them back in place is so relaxing. I could easily listen to a 30 minute video of only that.

Hey Ruby, your videos have slowly become some of the most comforting moments of my week. I'm usually a very pessimistic person, so the joy you take in life, in your studies, is so inspiring and it fills me with hope. You've also given me a new motivation to read. I used to be an avid reader but I stopped for one reason or another a few years ago, and seeing your passion for books has re awoken that passion in me too. Thank you so much. From India

I love reorganizing my bookshelves. It makes me fall in love with my library all over again

One day, Ruby's room will be decked with bookshelves and books from floor to rafter. It will be a labour of literary love!

[xosbabymama]

LOVE THIS❤️❤️ watching people organise stuff is so relaxing😭

[KrisMF]

You have some of the loveliest editions of classics I've ever seen! and the new shelf is so stunning!

Ruby, you are my idol. When ever i am feeling down, i watch you, and you inspire me to be productive. I started watching you in October 2020, a time in my life when i was questioning everything about me, especially because i was doing school online, but you completely changed my life, I felt more motivated and happy and my life took a turn for the better. You are amazing, and well, i wish i had a friend like you. You have saved my life.

[introvertedislander]

To be welcomed by a beautiful bookshelf filled with gorgeous books upon entering your room is indeed wonderful!

[sukhsbot]

I love it when you organize your room and especially the bookshelf.
I have a small bookshelf too, not too many books but enough for me.
I love this video, Ruby. You always inspire me to be productive.
Thank you for uploading mesmerizing videos. You have no idea how much they inspire me<3
