SO PROUD of you for putting yourself out there on the apps! Thats a huge and scary step. I found my fiance online 🥰 Just remember that you're looking for ONE person - so it's totally fine if 10,000 other people aren't the one. Keep swiping. Keep being yourself. Keep smiling. You got this. Love ya.
The German version of a book being much longer than the English version actually makes a lot of sense. German words and general sentence structure is a lot longer than English and to translate it you would need a lot more room 😂
@@blueberryxz6919 That's also the reason why a lot of big fantasy books get split in half in Germany. For example, we have 10 a song of ice and fire books instead of 5.
"Couldn't be me." As you hold up a whole play by play, literally dated and timed. 😂 I love that it totally feels like TeaTime with Gavin. All of us together just nodding, gasping, and sipping our teas in intrigue😂
OMG when I saw Battle Royale in the thumbnail I was SHOOK. I couldn't believe you'd taken my rec Gav! Thank you so much! The anxiety I felt when I saw it and watched the rest of the vlog....I thought I was gonna be wrong about a 5 star prediction so imagine my surprise to be the only one :) Wow, I can't thank you enough for featuring me in the video Gav and I'm so happy I helped you find a new favourite
Don't feel embarrassed for mourning a celebrity! Art can make a huge impact on our lives and actors and musicians are definitely artists. I grew up with Shannon on 90210 and Charmed. Always thought she was great at embodying any character she portrayed. I personally was so heartbroken when Prince died, I was sent home early and cried for days
I remember when Cory Monteith died, I was in the peek of my Glee fangirl period and I was so heartbroken! I cried like a baby when I watched the episode they made in his memory, also killing off Finn (his character). It's just what those people represent for you during a period of time and how being a fan of their work will never be the same 😢💔 Can also happen when the celebrity is still alive but did something horrible and you have to mourn that attachment to them/their work
A Stephen King vlog?!!!?!! Omg Gavin! You don't even know how excited that makes me! I have autism and Stephen King is one of my special interests. His work helps me so much and I love seeing people read his books. My mom will be reading 11-22-63 next week and we'll be reading it together. I don't have a lot of people to share my love for him with. His work is so good! And please do be critical in your vlog! I'm so happy you'll be doing this! I already know that video will be added to my UA-cam comfort list for when I'm anxious or stressed. I don't want to come across as some weirdo but this means so much to me! You're my favorite booktuber and knowing you'll be working on this brings me joy already 🎉 thanks for all your videos Gavin. You have no idea how much it means to me. You bring me lots of company and laughter 🤗 please remember when you get shitty comments that there are people out there like me who might not comment a lot but you do have a big positive influence on their lives. Happy reading 🥰
This is a golden opportunity to do another Agathe Christie read w what's going on w your neighbors!!! Just an idea, though no stress if you can't!!! Heehhehee and you're right I'm nosey to, it's like watching a mix of true crime, and Desperate Housewives LOL
The way I've sat down to this like a new episode after a cliffhanger!! 😂 You're right, I am very nosy! I am also excited to see how this reading challenge goes!
Ahhh I’m so glad you ended up loving Battle Royale and The Charm Offensive!! 🥰 those are some of my favorite books so it was so awesome to hear you rave about them 😍
I'm not done listening to your story about your neighbors yet, but this is reminding me a lot of your Agatha Christie solve alongs that you do. 😂Way to go, detective Gavin! 🎉
I gasped when I saw Smothermoss! I attended the release day author event at my locals bookstore, and the author was so charming. The next story they're hoping to do is a haunted house story also set in Appalachia, so fingers crossed that happens. Also, so damn jealous because the UK cover is so much better than the US one. 🐇
Your house is looking SO good! Loving this video! Also, I know you have most of your video ideas set for the year but I was wondering if you could do an “manga starters for beginners” recommendations. I want to get into manga but when I go to get something I get overwhelmed where to start. I know you love One Piece but I’m afraid to start it first because there’s so many in the series.
I love watching your cats. They adore you. I'm down from 3 cats a year and a half ago to 1 right now. She's wonderful but not a cuddler, like the other 2 were, so I'm planning to start fostering in November in hopes of finding 1 or 2 more cats she gets along with and who like to cuddle. It'll be a new adventure. I was also sad to hear that Shannen Doherty had died. She was a fantastic actress and should have gotten more accolades than she did. I still remember the presence she gave her characters in Heathers and the original Beverly Hills, 90210, which came out when I was in high school. In fact, I stopped watching 90210 when she was booted off the show. It just wasn't the same without her. She got such a bad rap in the media until recently and it was undeserved. I mean, she did some shitty things (DUI) and probably could have been more diplomatic in some situations but most of the negativity was backlash because she stood up for herself and refused to conform to the modest, compliant, nice girl image women were/are pushed into. She was herself and grew and changed over time, and I admired her for that.
Lol at getting a German edition of a book. I'm slowly learning German just because I want to and to keep my brain sharp. I'm only on basic sentences and stories, though. 😂 Du bist sehr nett und lustig, Gavin. I'm always here for some good drama!
I really love the Bilbo-y ‘Please don’t knock’-sign 😅 Thank you for another amazing reading vlog - I always enjoy watching your videos, they help me relax and get out of my own head for a little time ❤
I *adored* Piranesi (and it was gifted to me by my MIL just before she passed so it means a lot to me) so I’m so so glad that you enjoyed it! 🩵🩵 and I’m dying for Gavsteria Lane, I’m too nosey to live there cause I’d have my nose stuck to those windows hahaha
I'm living for your Gavisteria Lane drama 🍿 I just want Carol to take better care of her dogs (and stop leaving her laundry on the fence). THANK YOU for putting the spoiler frame!! I can't wait to read The Charm Offensive.
I'm so glad you loved Battle Royale! It was a 5 star for me and it was so hard to put that book down and not read it in one sitting. I still need to watch the movie as well. I definitely want to see that book come alive on the screen.
For the characters in Battle Royale, you can make a list with their names and cross them out when they die. I did that and tabbed every death. It's a really good book, I need to reread it. Love the video and the neighbour drama! 😄
43:28 I know I should be completely involved with the drama but I got distracted by your beautiful book corner! That extra pillow is clearly working overtime for your setup
I love Piranesi!! Im so excited for the Laika movie version even though it'll probably take awhile to come out. The book feels like it matches Laika's style really well.
German Reader and writer here! Because German is a somewhat complicated language (especially when it come to sentence structure?) every translation from English to German adds round about 25% more text to the book. 😂 But seeing it next to the English copy … wow! 😂
I just love the videos that you’ve been making lately and I’m so excited for you with everything going on even though it might be a lot! Also loooooved how you set up everything for the mystery on Gavsteria Lane with the whiteboard and everything.
I love the neighbor drama and the whole whiteboard timeline 😂makes it very serious! For the charm offensive, I understood it as Dev didn’t go out at all and kept out of any TV or social media as he had a depressive episode… but I agree that it might be unbelievable… I do love it for all its flaws though! So glad you loved The tainted cup, I also got it as a recommendation from Emma 😉
Even though you didn’t love my recommendation, I am so glad you read The Book of the Most Precious Substance. It was my fave book two years ago and I’m constantly recommending it. 🧡
Totally off topic but when you made the joke “I’ll unsubscribe from you” it gave me the idea what if you did a revamp of the “I have to like one of my friends favorite books or I unsubscribe from their channel” and kind of do the opposite “I unsubscribe from my friends channel until I like one of their favorite books” that way the goal is still to be subscribed and you get to read more of their favorites
Hey!! Thank you so much for choosing my recommendation and including my comment in this video! I also gave Piranesi 4 stars & I'm glad that you enjoyed it. 💙💙💙💛💛💛
Please keep trying to meet people! 1) You deserve a special partner to do life with and 2) I look forward to future whiteboard recaps about your dating experiences
Movie length Gav video ❤. Amazing! Just what I need to start my week off work 😊. I do hope you're doing well and enjoying your new home. Best wishes xx
I have been waiting for this drama 😝. I have been having my own issues with moving. We just got a house but the owners keep pushing the date that we can move in. First it was the 15th then we had to push it to the 24th. Now, they want to push it back even more. We can only be so patient. And we already signed the lease agreement 😭.
sooo interesting that Laika announced they were working on Piranesi. btw, they are currently working on an adaptation of Wildwood by Colin Meloy, if you didn't know. I'm not sure how they're adapting it, though, with it being the first in a trilogy. like idk if they'll just adapt the first book and make it a standalone, leave it open ended for a sequel, or combine the trilogy into one film. 8:27 adorable 🥺 yes, RIP Shannen Doherty
I love seeing your little ones, they are so sweet♥♥♥I have also two gingers, but yours are so gentle when they play. And yes, i am nosy and i wanted to know more about the mystery and about this...well, i try to do chores around the house, and i stopped the video right before The Mystery at Gavsteria Lane. Came back at my computer and i thought that first i need to pin down that list of books. All nice, till i search for...The Mystery at Gavsteria Lane. And search...and search. And i was so thrilled that have something from your name in it. I didn't trust google, i search on every possible book site, amazon from 3 countries. I gave up and i played again the video...yeah. And...look at you, with your white bord, and what can become my favourite cosy mystery book - The Mystery at Gavsteria Lane.🤣🤣🤣 Well, i am 50, i guess i need some geriatric vitamines. My husband is still laughing...because i asked him to search on vinted for me 🤣🤣🤣 Much love♥♥♥
Hey Gavin!! I’m obsessed with your channel, it’s just like a good book that you don’t want to put down. Keep up the great work and I can’t wait for your next video especially when you start reading Stephen king. Cheers!
Happy to hear that you enjoyed The Charm Offensive! 😊 The mystery of Gavsteria Lane had me hooked ngl. I hope all that clears up soon. Also I finally got my act together & ordered the first volume of One Piece (those bind up ones, so it's actually vol 1-3). I tried reading it online, but that just never really works for me for anything besides fanfic, so I'm biting the bullet now. Tbh I'm intimated by the sheer length, but I think the time has finally come for me to become fully immersed lol.
First and foremost love the book reviews Gavin! The gossip is a bonus 😂 would love a review of the 'Shivers' book series. I have so many good memories of reading those books from my school library . RIP Shannon Very brave lady 😢❤
I am always here for the tea and the books! I love Piranesi, it was something completely different from what I have ever read. When I heard about Shannon I thought of you. My poor mum though, she loved Richard Simmons, he was such a kind guy because he loved helping others. Now, I am going to have to check out Battle Royale because I loved The Hunger Games. Looking forward to these next vlogs you have coming. 😊🩷🩷🩷
Love the in depth recap of the neighbor drama! And the white board?! Peak investigative prowess 😜 So excited for you to visit Egypt and even more excited to be going with you to Norway! Everytime you mention it I get more stoked haha! It’s gonna be a great time, I can’t wait to meet everyone! 🎉💜
Battle Royale is so good 🥰 It was one of my favorite books when I was a teenager, and it actually impacted my enjoyment of The Hunger Games (which I read shortly after), because it felt so... "empty" in comparison. It really informed my reading taste at the time, and I'm glad it's still finding its audience in 2024.
I love watching UA-cam videos while cooking and cleaning and I love that your videos are longer Gavin! Cause then I don't have to search for new videos in the middle of cooking. Ps Love the neighborhood gossip!! 🍵🍵
I'm glad you enjoyed Battle Royale so much! It has been on my bookshelf for a while and I've just been avoiding chunky books. I need to make it a priority! I just finished The Tainted Cup and feel similarly. I'll be picking up the sequel but couldn't put my finger on why I didn't like it more but you're right, it is the atmosphere lacking!
I missed the Charmed night when you had to catch that spider. You really needed to edit in the chat at this point haha. I can only imagine! You left it in the cup & said that you weren't brave enough to move it yet then the next clip is "I'm waiting for my mom to come" & I thought for sure it was going to end with "to get rid of the spider"
cant wait for the Stephen King vlog. I am currently readng "The Institute" - and I absolutely love it. And I watched couple of film adaptations. So NOW I just cant wait finish to "The Institute" and jump right into "The Shining" (which will be me my 5th reading) - I just love it. Great entertaining stories + great character developments.
Not the turn of the whiteboard to reveal “THE JULY 12th INCIDENT.”😂
I was SCREAMING 😭😭😭
Gavin spills all the tea 🍵 Maybe you should start gardening and/or bird watching - it works for Miss Marple.
I do need to mow the grass 👀
😂 What a good idea!
Don’t be an Agnes Kravitz. It’s not a good look.
I love that you took notes 😂❤
All very entertaining, but do stay safe, Gavin.
You are correct I’ve been dying for the neighbourhood drama update 🤣
Gav, please get a ring doorbell!! It will capture all the goings on on gavsteria lane!!
@@Maddiereads8 Gavsteria Lane 🤣
I’ll invest, great idea!!
I love how the Slagatha whiteboard had to come out for this neighbourhood drama xD
Maybe the cats play more together because THIS place isn't haunted and there is no ghost calling anyone "annoying". 😂
I was thinking this while he said that too! 😂
The way I gasped when you flipped that whiteboard over for a part 2 😂
SO PROUD of you for putting yourself out there on the apps! Thats a huge and scary step. I found my fiance online 🥰 Just remember that you're looking for ONE person - so it's totally fine if 10,000 other people aren't the one. Keep swiping. Keep being yourself. Keep smiling. You got this. Love ya.
‘Carol gets a pizza’ haha. I love how you are documenting everything, your very own true crime story.
The German version of a book being much longer than the English version actually makes a lot of sense. German words and general sentence structure is a lot longer than English and to translate it you would need a lot more room 😂
Exactly, same with Hungarian. That's why I"m always laughing when English speakers say that 500 pages of a book is a lot :D
@@blueberryxz6919 That's also the reason why a lot of big fantasy books get split in half in Germany. For example, we have 10 a song of ice and fire books instead of 5.
When translating from English to German the German version of the text is about 30 percent longer.
"Couldn't be me." As you hold up a whole play by play, literally dated and timed. 😂 I love that it totally feels like TeaTime with Gavin. All of us together just nodding, gasping, and sipping our teas in intrigue😂
"I think that's when I can really release the breath I didn't realize I'd been holding." 😂
OMG when I saw Battle Royale in the thumbnail I was SHOOK. I couldn't believe you'd taken my rec Gav! Thank you so much! The anxiety I felt when I saw it and watched the rest of the vlog....I thought I was gonna be wrong about a 5 star prediction so imagine my surprise to be the only one :) Wow, I can't thank you enough for featuring me in the video Gav and I'm so happy I helped you find a new favourite
Thank you so much for pushing me in the right direction to read it, otherwise it would have ended up sitting on my TBR for potentially more years 🙏
I’m so nosey I need all the details on the Gavsteria drama
Don't feel embarrassed for mourning a celebrity! Art can make a huge impact on our lives and actors and musicians are definitely artists. I grew up with Shannon on 90210 and Charmed. Always thought she was great at embodying any character she portrayed.
I personally was so heartbroken when Prince died, I was sent home early and cried for days

Can also happen when the celebrity is still alive but did something horrible and you have to mourn that attachment to them/their work
The Drama Gods KNEW you were stressed from moving and decided to bestow upon you some juicy tea to make it all worth it. And we are all living for it
BAHAHA i'm only on minute 42:56 but i zoomed into the white board and "carol puts her filthy laundry on my fence" has me CACKLING.
Came for the neighbor drama, stayed for the kitty clips! 😂
I love a whiteboard moment 🥰 Not gonna lie, as soon as the whiteboard came up, I went and made myself a cup of tea! 😂
Here for the neighbor drama more than anything today ✋️🤣
A Stephen King vlog?!!!?!! Omg Gavin! You don't even know how excited that makes me! I have autism and Stephen King is one of my special interests.

Hi! I love Stephen King, I can't wait for Gavin to do this either!😊
@@lisa68743 this will be a great video to look forward to for all Stephen Fans 🤗 Gavin is streaming now doing reading sprints while reading Salems Lot
A 1.5 hour reading vlog including the neighbour drama 😱 yes I needed this today ❤❤
accidentally ordering a book in German has me so dead 😂
This is a golden opportunity to do another Agathe Christie read w what's going on w your neighbors!!! Just an idea, though no stress if you can't!!! Heehhehee and you're right I'm nosey to, it's like watching a mix of true crime, and Desperate Housewives LOL
Oh that teaser clip of you going though Stephen Kings Bibliography has got me hyped!! Super excited for that :)
your cats... my heart is melting 🥰🥺
The way I've sat down to this like a new episode after a cliffhanger!! 😂 You're right, I am very nosy! I am also excited to see how this reading challenge goes!
Ok, I love the fact that you had an arch nemesis at your old library, and you named her Florence 😂
I'm so happy to see Sydney getting love! Never see anyone else talk about her and she's just fabulous 🥰
Ahhh I’m so glad you ended up loving Battle Royale and The Charm Offensive!! 🥰 those are some of my favorite books so it was so awesome to hear you rave about them 😍
I'm not done listening to your story about your neighbors yet, but this is reminding me a lot of your Agatha Christie solve alongs that you do. 😂Way to go, detective Gavin! 🎉
“Is it really pizza, Carol?!” LOL …who needs Agatha Christie when we have Gavin’s chronicles! 😂
I gasped when I saw Smothermoss! I attended the release day author event at my locals bookstore, and the author was so charming. The next story they're hoping to do is a haunted house story also set in Appalachia, so fingers crossed that happens. Also, so damn jealous because the UK cover is so much better than the US one. 🐇

@@kendrathomas4584 I would love to do a video like that, I always have room for suggestions, so thank you for sharing that idea with me 🥰
The spider part made me laugh so much because that is so me
I’m absolutely weak at you explaining the drama. So fucking funny 🤣
I love watching your cats. They adore you. I'm down from 3 cats a year and a half ago to 1 right now. She's wonderful but not a cuddler, like the other 2 were, so I'm planning to start fostering in November in hopes of finding 1 or 2 more cats she gets along with and who like to cuddle. It'll be a new adventure.
I was also sad to hear that Shannen Doherty had died. She was a fantastic actress and should have gotten more accolades than she did. I still remember the presence she gave her characters in Heathers and the original Beverly Hills, 90210, which came out when I was in high school. In fact, I stopped watching 90210 when she was booted off the show. It just wasn't the same without her. She got such a bad rap in the media until recently and it was undeserved. I mean, she did some shitty things (DUI) and probably could have been more diplomatic in some situations but most of the negativity was backlash because she stood up for herself and refused to conform to the modest, compliant, nice girl image women were/are pushed into. She was herself and grew and changed over time, and I admired her for that.
Lol at getting a German edition of a book. I'm slowly learning German just because I want to and to keep my brain sharp. I'm only on basic sentences and stories, though. 😂 Du bist sehr nett und lustig, Gavin.
I'm always here for some good drama!
I'm super hyped for the Stephen king reading Vlog! He's my favorite author and your my favorite book tuber
I really love the Bilbo-y ‘Please don’t knock’-sign 😅 Thank you for another amazing reading vlog - I always enjoy watching your videos, they help me relax and get out of my own head for a little time ❤
I was sad too about Shannon Doherty. I watched her in Beverly Hills 91210 and charmed.

So glad you loved The tainted cup, I also got it as a recommendation from Emma 😉
Gavin you are so precious 💕 Your videos bring me so much joy.
I loved the film of battle royale and you’ve inspired me to read it now. I bloomin loved Piranesi. Great vlog :)
Even though you didn’t love my recommendation, I am so glad you read The Book of the Most Precious Substance. It was my fave book two years ago and I’m constantly recommending it. 🧡
Im so sick right now, but you managed to make me feel a bit better. This was so fun and you definitely need to make this into a series!
You need to get a spider catcher! has made me a lot more comfortable when there’s a behemoth on the floor
Finally catching up on videos and I’m dying over the neighbor drama, and the flipping of the white board of my gosh 😂
new series idea : Neighbor drama vlogs. Honestly your great at the story telling it was so entertaining I am invested
Wake up ya’ll Gavin posted ✨☕️ Also! I love the new background set up you’ve got! It looks so good 😊
Totally off topic but when you made the joke “I’ll unsubscribe from you” it gave me the idea what if you did a revamp of the “I have to like one of my friends favorite books or I unsubscribe from their channel” and kind of do the opposite “I unsubscribe from my friends channel until I like one of their favorite books” that way the goal is still to be subscribed and you get to read more of their favorites
Literally making a tea during the neighbour drama storytime. Also I hope the Piranesi film is going to be really beautiful ❤️

Catching up on my Gavin videos! Those little bottles of cocktails are so adorable. also, ew spiders.
I have been waiting for this drama 😝.
I have been having my own issues with moving. We just got a house but the owners keep pushing the date that we can move in. First it was the 15th then we had to push it to the 24th. Now, they want to push it back even more. We can only be so patient. And we already signed the lease agreement 😭.
@@thestoryseekers oh my!! I really hope you get a solid date soon cause that is just ridiculous!
Oh I'm sorry you're dealing with that
Oh how exciting that you’re doing a Stephen King read! I’m currently hunting down his books as well, they’re hard to find secondhand!
sooo interesting that Laika announced they were working on Piranesi. btw, they are currently working on an adaptation of Wildwood by Colin Meloy, if you didn't know.

I am always here for the tea and the books! I love Piranesi, it was something completely different from what I have ever read.
When I heard about Shannon I thought of you. My poor mum though, she loved Richard Simmons, he was such a kind guy because he loved helping others.
Now, I am going to have to check out Battle Royale because I loved The Hunger Games.
Looking forward to these next vlogs you have coming. 😊🩷🩷🩷
Love the in depth recap of the neighbor drama! And the white board?! Peak investigative prowess 😜 So excited for you to visit Egypt and even more excited to be going with you to Norway! Everytime you mention it I get more stoked haha! It’s gonna be a great time, I can’t wait to meet everyone! 🎉💜
I love The Charm Offensive. So good to hear that you enjoyed it.
Battle Royale is so good 🥰 It was one of my favorite books when I was a teenager, and it actually impacted my enjoyment of The Hunger Games (which I read shortly after), because it felt so... "empty" in comparison. It really informed my reading taste at the time, and I'm glad it's still finding its audience in 2024.
I love watching UA-cam videos while cooking and cleaning and I love that your videos are longer Gavin! Cause then I don't have to search for new videos in the middle of cooking. Ps Love the neighborhood gossip!! 🍵🍵
I'm glad you enjoyed Battle Royale so much! It has been on my bookshelf for a while and I've just been avoiding chunky books. I need to make it a priority!
I just finished The Tainted Cup and feel similarly. I'll be picking up the sequel but couldn't put my finger on why I didn't like it more but you're right, it is the atmosphere lacking!
I missed the Charmed night when you had to catch that spider. You really needed to edit in the chat at this point haha. I can only imagine!
You left it in the cup & said that you weren't brave enough to move it yet then the next clip is "I'm waiting for my mom to come" & I thought for sure it was going to end with "to get rid of the spider"
cant wait for the Stephen King vlog. I am currently readng "The Institute" - and I absolutely love it. And I watched couple of film adaptations. So NOW I just cant wait finish to "The Institute" and jump right into "The Shining" (which will be me my 5th reading) - I just love it. Great entertaining stories + great character developments.
The Charm Offensive is one of my favorite books. Im glad you enjoyed it!
100% needed to know all the drama
living in japan right now, watching your videos always brings a smile to my face 😁
Well colour me INVESTED in this drama
I love Gavin, but I am so here for the neighbour drama. Where's my popcorn?
