wow, only Ruby stayed true to being a "studytube" even after all these years. I know they grow up and all and have found different hobbies, but only Ruby has kept releasing inspirational study content because it's just truly who she is. Someone who genuinely enjoys books and reading.
This video couldn't come at a better time. I had to take a break from my studies, since i have my finals tomorrow. Thanks so much ruby! 🧡

Thank you so much Ruby for your vulnerability and passion in reading

Books I've ever purchased myself besides course books- A diary of a young girl(ongoing) , twilight part 1, arabian nights story(ongoing), 1 comic, blue mimosa (total no 5) The books I've ever borrowed to read- Inkheart, Harry Potter, a couple of short story books, encyclopedias, gk/science/math related books etc....... By the way I really enjoy watching your videos very much❤️❤️❤️.
i really enjoyed huysman’s against nature in my first year philosophy class!! it was one of my favorite readings that semester
Ruby, you are truly an inspiration
I love your aesthetic Ruby! 💕
The Tchaikovsky music playing really set the perfect tone. :)
What a cute mug in the beginning!
I read seven books in a week once, and I told everyone about it for months; I was so proud of myself. To be fair, for the previous seven years I had probably been only reading about a book a year, what with having a full time job and often working up to 70 hours a week, so to me it was a pretty big deal. It was actually Ruby who was one of the inspirations for getting me back into reading, so good work Ruby! I was a complete bookworm as a teenager but as an adult could barely get through a page without falling asleep, so the same book would last months and months.
I love this so much!!! I love your readathons. Planning on rewatching this a lot:)

My heart jumped when I saw ‘I was a rat’ we read it in school and it was the first book I really enjoyed!
I just started watching your videos and enjoy watching them, especially the books you pick and so jealous of your house it looks so cozy for reading. One thing I will say is that do you really get pleasure out of doing your readathons? The reason I ask is when I read a book and it’s just a personal thing for me I know everybody is different, I enjoy taking my time to read it just like sitting to a nice meal. I like to absorb everything that’s going on, going to do chores and thinking about the characters and can’t wait to get back to the book again. I guess I cherish every book as if it’s my last meal 🙂
She always inspire me to read coz reading is not the most ideal thing for me , but I quite enjoy reading supernatural stuffs, fairy tales ..## love you always and you actually gave me a break as well from electronics❤️
Finally a Ruby book video!!! 🥺
I've just discover your channel and I love it. 😍 I'm French and I love read in english, especially the english litterature (I study it at school). I love foreign language, I also read in spanish. Anyway, your videos are so good and you have given me ideas of books to read.☺️

I would love to see a video with just you talking about the victorian period and the things you find most interesting about it. I could watch this for hours.
Whenever i m watching ur vid i feel like i m seeing old age time a life of topper because the environment, the background music.... really nice vids keep it up..
I read Hamlet this year too(for uni) and I really enjoyed it a lot!
I'm finally free because I passed my graduation levels. And I can't believe that I've actually time to relax now, so what better way than to watch Ruby's videos ❤️ Here's to new chapters!
Ruby's outfit in the starting of this video video reminds me a lot of Hermione Granger in the Deathly Hallows movie
I had tried this summer a readathon and i was surprised of the number of books i had read . I read 12 books in 24 hrs without sleeping . This is how we are called as BOOKWORMS

I highly recommend the new Ophelia movie with Daisy Ridley and Naomi Watts. So so good! You'll love it!
Love Ruby's mug
I just love you and your content :))
You can watch lots of Shakespeare for free through the Exeter university library databases, using your uni login. I would really recommend Rory Kinnear’s version - it is soooo good :) Thank you for such a beautiful video!
Read Showalter's 'The Female Malady' - it relates a lot to her longer criticism on Ophelia but its kind of a feminist version of Foucault's 'Madness and Civilisation' which is obviously now the most pivotal histories of madness. I did this all for my EPQ and its fascinating, particularly how much influence Ophelia and Bertha had on psychiatry.
This is a fantastic video as always Ruby! Your videos always encourage me to read more which I love anyway 📚 a question though: what notes do you make in all the books you're reading?
I loved Against Nature. I read it as an undergrad in my La Belle Époque class.
I'm so impressed - 7 books in a day! Your videos always bring so much inspiration for studying, reading, etc. Ruby, how much time in average does it take you to read one book? For example, the same size as "The diamond as big as the Ritz" by F. Scott Fitzgerald?
Love your book videos 😊
You sound so much like Hermione granger but more calm and relaxing, i love your videos by the way
Against Nature!!! I love that book.
I did Hamlet for school and enjoyed it so much! Once we studied it we went to the play too. I want to read Romeo and Juliet now but I think I will read it along with an audiobook which will probably help in understanding what’s going on x
Love your videos thanks for sharing!
The encouragement I need to get reading again. I don't know how to stay focused on a book for more than a hour. Hopefully that will change when I move because I will be in a better environment with more places to read.
Best thing to watch ever.💛
