    I've had so many conversations with a friend of mine who is recovering from a major surgery about how frustrating it is when our bodies don't or can't work the way we want them to. It's such a hard experience, but I'm sending positivity and comfort your way!

    Huhh, this video was actually a real masterpiece in my opinion. Snowy, movie-like clips and cozy reading scenes...and I have to say, it is really cool that you played the flute and the guitar and showed that too in this video! So excited for your further wintery vlogs/content! I have been here for a while but I've also been gone for short periods of times - especially when school and life got really busy - but I am really excited to be here with you again. And it's really great that when you are stressed you do not disappear, you just share that with us too and we can support you if only in the comments but we can and you help us too, so greatful for you emma.

Oh I also into classics and owning 40+ classic books because of you. You make us happy so please be happy too 🥲 Talking about your anxiety, please don't put pressure on yourself. Take a break if you really need too. Take a rest, you're doing great. I hope everything will be okay. You always there for us so we hope we can always there for you too.

    hi emma! introducing myself as requested 🥰 i’m Faye, i’m 18, live in the UK, and discovered your channel in what was i think early 2021. i have been the biggest bookworm all my life and have found such solace and companionship in your videos. how you talk about the nuances of language in books and take such pleasure in really zooming in and out and analysing and re-analysing is so thrilling and beautiful to me, and has led to me falling even deeper in love with books. i read war and peace alongside you and carolyn back in may, and have such happy memories of reading a section and diving headfirst into one of your Tolstoy Diaries videos for your thoughts. you feel like such a close friend, to the point where i don’t know how or why i’ve never commented before! ♡ you’re such a beautiful soul and bring such contentment and serenity to so many people. lots and lots of love xxx

I am an acting student and I love reading. Apart from the book recs, I just find your videos very calming and peaceful. I recently met a person who also watches your videos and we literally spent the next hour talking about your videos. Love these frequent and quick uploads. These are my Netflix and chill videos. Whether I am eating, cooking, or cleaning, I just put on your videos. Thank you for everything that you do.

    Hey Emma, I discovered your channel this year, soon after I moved from Ontario to the US, and I immediately got the 'Canadian' vibes. Your channel made me feel like home right away (although I'm not originally from Canada). I love your thoughtful analyses, I was having a hard time finding a booktube channel that talks about more than the hype books of the season and I love you're also talking about classics. I feel for you and pain issues. For the past 2 years I've been hit by a severe form of IBS and this one is here to stay (associated with bacterial overgrowth). It's changed my life completely, it's altered my diet severely (plant-based ingredients were my favorite and now they're trying to kill me; I miss a big salad soooo much) and it came with a lot a lot of pain (and anxiety ). Mindfulness, a good doctor and lots and lots of books have helped. I hear you, I know how it's like to have a day when your productivity is low because the pain makes it hard to focus. And yet, with friends, family and books (lots of books) we manage. Oh, and walks. You make me miss snow, and I never thought I'd say that :D. Warm hugs from south of the border

    It is Sunday morning around 9. I woke to watch Emma again. Well, I am Lewis and I love snow and winter. The snow was up to my knee height when I was at college in the UK. I had a head injury when I was very small, but I don’t attach anything to it now as it was just so long ago. Perhaps my ultra sense of optimism has something to do with it. I was first drawn to your channel when I was randomly searching for Agatha Christie not long ago. There you are…Emma the sleuth. Watching your vlog is becoming part of my routine. Keep it up girl, love to hear your voice. More of Agatha Christie please.

I've always been reading classics and literary fiction, and had a hard time finding people who had read the same things, so thank you for being that book friend to me! I also struggled this past year with my body and mind not working properly (found the reason and I'm much better now!) and had to reduce the amount of classes I could take at university, which I took very hard, but you were part of the reason that made me be okay with it and be patient with my body, so thank you!

    Hey Emma :) My name is Bo and I'm from belgium (not really sure why I wanted to metion that but anyways)Thank you for being so open about your struggles. I have been here for a while and I have always really admired that about you. For a couple of years I have also been struggling with being very hard on myself and fearing a bad grade even though I know those thoughts are not reality. It can feel numbing, painful and it's often a period with loss of hope. I wish you the very best of days, your videos sure make mine better :) I also wanted to tell you that it is so courageous to open up and tell people about your chalenges. In the light of everything that we do "wrong", we often forget to praise ourselves for the things we find normal but which are actually very rare. You seem like one of those rare souls you come accros every so often who makes people feel heard, seen and cared for just by being. So thank you thank you thank you Emma

    Hi Emmie & and her fellow subscribers/friends ;) I am a uni student in NZ, I'm about to start the final week of my whole undergraduate degree! I study Japanese and Asian Studies, but I'm taking an English paper to finish off my degree (it's called "Postcolonial Literature" with a focus on the Korean peninsula, so we're reading books like Pachinko which you mentioned recently in one of your videos). I am a bit stressed and anxious because of all the work I need to do in this final week of study...But it is nice to visit your channel to relax. I found your channel exactly three months ago today! It was the "I asked 1,000 people what their favourite book is 👀 here are the top 20 novels!" video. Since then, I have been subscribed, have loved watching your videos, they're so calming :) Also, I have definitely added a lot of books to my TBR because of you haha It was cool to find out that you play the flute, I really enjoyed listening to your practice. I hope you're having a great day and that you keep enjoying your winter reads! (I, on the other hand, am dying in the 28C weather here in NZ and can't quite get into the wintry mood haha :)

I have you and your content to thank for inspiring me to get back into reading regularly again, which has been so wonderful and inspiring. I read One Hundred Years of Solitude over the summer because of how highly you spoke of it and it left me in awe and wanting to read more magical realism. Thanks so much for your lovely, calming videos and deeply inspiring content about reading. Hope the rest of this winter treats you well

    Hi Emma, you said introduce yourselves, so I'll do just that. I'm not sure how long I've been subscribed to you for. You're one of my favourite booktubers (autocorrect changed book tubers to two words, so I saw you growing beneath the earth like a tuber). I live in Queensland, Australia. I'm chronically ill with a slew of very rare diseases and other conditions. My healthcare is my full time job. I average several medical appointments every week (I have a huge team), lots of hospital time, and it's been that way for many years. I'm in pain from multiple sources all day every day. "Book" was the first word I spoke as a baby. I love reading, writing, science illustration (though I haven't done any SI stuff for awhile because of symptoms). Before I was ill I was really involved in permaculture, gardening, bush regeneration and circus training/teaching. I'm a nature nerd. I lived in the UK for 18 mths, and have technically been to 16 countries (though a few of those were just stopovers, passing through). I love playing backgammon, and I do a cryptic crossword with my coffee every morning. I'm Autistic but wasn't diagnosed until I was in my 30's (common for women). My favourite writers are Virginia Woolf, Jeanette Winterson, Eleanor Dark, Michael Cunningham, Becky Chambers and a few others.

    You have been such a joy to accompany since I found you two weeks ago! I am an avid reader and writer from Michigan! Psyched you play the flute too💛 might have to pull mine out! I want more snow, but it’s supposed to rain all night, so that’s a close second for digging into a long book. Hope your brain gives you a break soon, friend! 💛

    Emma, I was in your place about a year and a half ago with guitar, and I must say, it is better to play about 10 or 20 minutes a day consistently, even when it hurts, than trying to play for hours a night, and I would say in 2-3 weeks your fingers won’t have that trouble! But consistency is key, and eventually you’ll be able to play for hours without your fingers hurting. Good luck and I’m looking forward to seeing your progress!

    Hellooo. I’m from turkey and this year was an exam year for me. During that time, I’d watch a video of yours and I cannot tell how much of a calming effect you had on me. and now I’m officially a pediatrics resident! Because of the pandemic the bureaucracy has been slower than usual and I used my free months reading a lot, and I was inspired many times by you! Thank you so much
