I am very comfortable with the energy we’ve created in this studio today 💕

Jack, I don't know if you know about the whole "sprint reading" thing. It has become a trend on brazilian booktube and I love it. Basically the streamer sets up a 30-45 min timer and everyone reads together during that time. After that, we talk and discuss what we're reading for 15 min and then back to another 'sprint'.

That sounds really fun. Wish it had another name other than "sprint" though, it makes me feel in a hurry 😅

This is such a sweet video idea! I have an anxiety disorder and sometimes struggle to get in the reading mindset. This helps

I click in just to make sure Jake’s reading at an average speed as everyone else. Just because he can read so many books every year, I used to think he just reads much faster than normal person (ie me).

@@yetian3033 He is an avid reader, so makes sense that his reading speed has increased a lot over the years. Coupled by his "big book fear" and audiobooks. Not to mention, he was an English lit student so he had to read a lot of books, so that contributed too.

Jack, you motivated me to read for 21 minutes and 48 seconds more than I planned to tonight. The book I am reading is called, "To Sir, With Love" and is written by a man named E.R Braithwaite. It is not a long book, but the autobiography tells of England in the decades after WW2 with the racism, and focuses on a school in the East End. I have dyslexia, and although I adore English Lit. and like books a lot, it takes a lot of concentration to read words!

Hello Jack. Your thoughtful warnings on "A Little Life" and your reading vlog compelled me to start the book. Was able to enjoy it from the get go but stopped at 13% (Kindle). Still at Lispenard Street chapter when Willem brought Jude to Andy before the party. I love the characters so so much and my heart breaks for Jude. I will read again and finish the book in a happier season. Continue to inspire us to read!

I don't need motivation to read but I do need 30 minutes of jack reading in my life, thank you

This is helping me find the motivation to continue reading Dune. It's a struggle and I want to finish it, but man it's hard to pick up.

so now you’ve got comfortable filming yourself reading huh (after a little life) i’m not complaining

You are my motivation, every time I watch your channel I feel the need to pick up a book and read like 1 or 2 chapters, also I watch you like every day I just think you are awesome

stop this idea,,, the white noise,,, immaculate :*

This video is so useful. Im alone in my room and having the people in the video doing the same as me really helps me. Thank you!

SO thankful for this today. i’ve been struggling to read consistently (or nearly as quickly) for the last couple of years after i started college. i needed to get through a book for class that i had only barely been through for an assignment that was due tomorrow. it sounds so silly since the video is relatively silent but replaying this four times got me through the 140 pages i needed to read to complete the book. thank you, thank you, thank you!

Thoroughly enjoyed this! I read a lot and often times alone so it was comforting in a sense to feel like I was reading in the company of someone.

Thank you so much! When I’m a feeling bit down, reading sometimes makes me feel very lonely. This definitely made feel better and I enjoyed my book a little more ❤️🥺

This is exactly what I needed!!! I was just about to start reading but wanted to check if you had uploaded anything! Thank you Jack.

This is as close as I can get to having friends who read with me and I love it

Such a lovely idea! Can’t wait for the longer version of this video!

this video was perfect! I’m in a reading slump these days but as soon as you posted this video i grabbed my book and joined you! thank you once again for the amazing content and have a beautiful day

Love this. I've been delaying starting my new book for some reason, but I'm finally gonna pick it up tomorrow and read with you. The background is such a vibe.

You uploaded literally right when I opened my book 👀 perfect timing

After months of not being able to motivate myself to read a book, I managed to get myself to read 30 pages with this video 😊

Oh my god, the background in this video is so aesthetically pleasing. Genuinely made me feel so calm.

was procrastinating a book so i put this video on loop, it is now 02:35 in the morning and i finished my book

Oh, I love those kind of videos and find them really helpful. Thank you, Jack 🥺

Periodt... I LOVE YOUU SOO MUCHHH

that helped me so much! I always watch TV after work and that made it feel super doable. I don't have to save reading for weekends! Smaller sessions can be more manageable

yesssss i've been praying for this type of video for so long, thank you for blessing us with this, king

this video saved me because i started a new book 2 days ago but i was feeling a little sad today and didn't read it and thought this was a sign and now i just finished it :) thank you jack!!

Please do more of these. This motivates me so much to read

Omg I was just about to request a video like this, I already know I'll be watching it every second day now 🥺

My heart jumped at the sight of this video ❤️ so glad i found your channels and your humour 🙂

Hey Jack, I just wanted to thank you for these BYOB streams you did back then on instagram and ytb, i had an amazing time ans never missed a day ! After the concept ended, a subscriber who wanted to keep this going made a discord and I joined it and so far many of the members have met each other irl, we've are to this day having an amazing time together and the BYOB really helped us all in so many ways. Thank you again 2 years and still going strong ✨️

FINALLY we got to be on a bookish-best-buddies date with this gentleman!

Omg I've been in a reading slump and I really needed this! Thank you Jack! :)

The little smile at the end, so wholesome:))

THANK YOU!! i've never wanted a friend to read together with more than ever recently

This made me feel like I was reading with a cute boy... Jack, please make more of these.

This was so comforting! Just felt like I was reading alongside an old friend, enjoying each other’s company :) Cant wait for more videos like this! P.S. I’m currently reading “Little Fires Everywhere” by Celeste Ng

I loved this! Definitely got me to sit down and read for a few minutes before tackling major tasks.

thank you for doing this because it helped me read my current book!

I kid you not, I was getting my way to my bookshelf to get my book and dropped myself on my bed to open my book when I saw a notification of your video. faith or coincidence? Idk but I love the timing

Please keep making videos like this one! It was so helpful for me to get the motivation to get my homework done! Thank you!!

Will really enjoy reading with this in my lunch break. Have to do revision when all I want to do is read! But at least I know there is a specific time frame I can with this video (as it is easy for me to just keep going). Love to see more of these videos!

Would love more of these videos! It actually made me read the full 31 minutes of the video

Love this! And love your videos! I would love to see a video maybe talking about the benefits of reading and how it enhances our lives and well-being? (ie. how you think reading effects our emotional intelligence, how we perceive the world, and how reading can help us be kinder, better people) hope that makes sense! :) love your videos!

omg i was just looking for one of these and you literally just uploaded one!! ahh thankuuu

omg this is just perfecttt, because i just started reading the fall by albert camus😊 plus listening to melodrama for the ✨main character vibes✨ lol
