I love this!! I feel like I'm getting so much Gavin lore that I missed out on. Thanks for being here and continuing to make fresh and inventive content. you're the best!
I’ve been watching this slowly over the last two days and I can say with full confidence that this is in your top five best videos of all time. For me, it’s number one. I loved going through every amazing milestone and fun and funny experience you’ve had along the way. I particularly love every live show with Lexi . Y’all are just magic when you’re together. It’s a guaranteed meme fest. I am so honored and proud and overjoyed to be in this video as many times as I am. Because I love you to freaking much and I couldn’t be more grateful that the internet decided to put us in each others paths. We may live an ocean and a half away from each other but you are, without a doubt, one of my absolute favorite people on this planet. I love you, Gavin. And I’m so proud of you. And so happy for you. You’ve accomplished so much in such little time. And I know you’re not slowing down any time soon. Everything you touch is gold 🏆💛🤴🏻
I’m just so proud of you 🤍 I know it hasn’t always been easy but you take it all with grace. Never has it once stoped from being you. You are the red tread throughout my whole BookTube journey and still are. Thank you for being you Gav 🤍
Awww Gavin!!! This video is so nostalgic and such a wonderful time capsule of your time on Booktube! What a great way to celebrate your booktube anniversary I love this 🥰 you’ve come so far, and I’m so proud of you!!!
I didn't realize I've been watching you since 2019 because that's when I started a book club and got into booktube! My club is still going and I still tune in regularly. Congrats on 5 years!
My favorite series will always be the haunted location with horror books ❤️ Awesoke to know that you love making them despite how costly they are- I really appreciate all that you do for this channel
This was an epic blast from the past that made me laugh quite a lot. There aren't many people who can make these full length feature films on Booktube and make them entertaining and fun to watch but you always manage to make us love them! There is no one else like you Gav!
Seeing you talk about the start of your channel gives me the tiniest bit more confidence to start my own channel. I've posted shorts, but filming long-form videos always makes me nervous. :O
i'm about an hour in, and i just adore you Gavin. seeing your journey and growth is just amazing. the way you've edited this is phenomenal - jumping back and forth in years, chatting, reminiscing (not me getting emotional over your guy's crescent city music video lmao), literally perfection. i love you and all youve accomplished, you deserve ALL good things💓
I started watching your channel in 2020. I can honestly say I love every second of all your videos and all the live shows you do. You are such a joy to watch. Even all your long videos are better than some movies out there. I will always support this channel and anything you do. You are one of the best ❤.
Just recently found your channel by watching your older videos while I've been going through some dark times in my life right now. I was sorry to hear you had some very rough patches while your channel grew, but I really appreciate your videos no matter the types of books you've read (manga vs books). Keep being you.
Happy Anniversary! I've been here for just a year or so (but basically binged your whole channel so I know the ✨lore✨). Thank you for bringing smiles to our faces ❤
Brilliant - finally finished watching. The editing to put this together is insane. So glad you found your Groove and what works for you - keep enjoying what you are doing. Really enjoyed hearing about your journey 💜📚
I discovered BookTube in summer 2020 and apparently I subscribed to you in December that year, then joined your Patreon in March 21. (That was a time when I really needed the book community as my dad had just passed away and you were all so there for me!) It's a walk down memory lane for me too watching this video. Happy anniversary 🧡
Love your channel! Sorry people gave you problems with your manga videos. I love reading both novels and manga and there should be a place for both on booktube.
Why am I getting so emotional while watching this 🥹 I joined your channel back in 2020 and up until now this is such a magical channel to be. It’s so fun to watch the full journey up until now. And to many more years to come 🎉🎉🎉
Okay I’m commenting again 🫣 seeing you get Ash & Tobu 😭😭😭 I’m a little new to your channel still so they’ve always been there since I found your channel but omg it is so wholesome and adorable!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I’m a ghost viewer but I love your videos so much! I literally look forward to watching them after work to relax. My favorites have always been all your long form videos- especially the haunted location series. ❤❤❤
OMG what a walk down memory lane!! I've been here since almost day 1 I think - why do you need to throw my big age in my face? LOL Wow, the level of creativity and work you put into all videos (including this one) is magnificent (although I also definitely love the chiller ones too); I hope you feel proud of yourself and treat yourself to some flowers and chocolate and a day off!!!
I started watching you towards the end of 2020 and you were, and still are, such a comfort and escape to watch. Your themed vlogs quickly became my favorite videos and I still recommend your channel to friends! Watching you change and grow has been so refreshing! Thank you for this 😊
I love watching all of your videos, but this one felt very special getting to see nuggets from your UA-cam journey and how much you’ve grown since 2019! I hope you continue to do UA-cam so long as it makes you happy! ❤❤
Play your TBR arc was an ERA. I always think of the music when playing cards. This video is such a THROWBACK. thanks for having us on your journey, loved every minute!
Oh I loved this video and realizing I've been watching you since almost your beginning. Congratulations on 5 years, here's to 5 more. Thank you for every laugh you gave me.
I am not usually a commenter but just wanted to pop up here and say that I have been around since you started and that you and Becca are my two favorite booktubers! Booktube would be a lonely place without both of you and your vlogs make me feel less lonely! Your haunted series is my absolute favorite! Keep doing what you do and be nothing but yourself because you are the best! Thank you for everything and all of the wonderful memories these past 5 years :)
CONGRATULATIONS!!! Sending you tons of love from Texas. You constantly inspire me to read and have adventures! Thank you for all of your hard work. I appreciate you more than words can say.
Gavin this was so fun to watch! I loved all the memories it’s so fun seeing things again. You just make me so happy and I’d be so sad if you weren’t on BookTube!
Oh my god the sex and the city video! One of my faves, you are hilarious honestly! I found your channel because of the controversy in 2020, I did actually defend you as I think someone I followed tweeted about it and you retweeted me, been a subscriber ever since! Love your channel so much, you genuinely brighten my day whenever you post. Never stop being you ❤🎉
I remember those vlogs from 2019!! I can't believe 5 years have passed by. Seeing all the costumes (Marilyn, Velma and Elsa) reawakened those memories. I'm so happy seeing how far you've come. There's really no one quite like you on BookTube
I found your channel in 2020 and I can honestly tell you, you have brought so much joy to my life. I love everything you post. You're so funny and you are just a light in this world. There are so many videos where I have just laughed out loud. Even if we don't have the same reading taste, I love your personality. I love for feature length movies and all the shenanigans. I am so so thankful to have found you and that you have just been so authentically yourself. You're one of my favourite booktubers of all time ❤
Omg this is so surreal to think how long ago all this happened. I started watching in 2019 around the time I got into reading as an adult. It’s crazy how long ago that was, even if it felt so recent. Here’s to more years to come ♥️
gods, i love the haunted location vlogs so much! such rewatchability, so creative! congrats on five years on youtube!! can't wait to see what else is in store for you💕
How are all the videos I remember the most from your are from late 2019 and 2020. How has it been 4 years 🤯 I love your content and it has been an honour to watch you grow into yourself 🥰 forever a favourite UA-camrs and I am so grateful to have found your channel
Congrats, Gavin!🎉 I've been a subscriber for about a year and in that time you've become such a comfort youtuber!❤ (Also I LOVE your LOTR-themed readalong. A perfect reading companion.)
Your 'reading horror books while camping' was and still is one of my favorites of yours! This whole video was a treat! I've been a subscriber of yours since 2020 (on a different account since I accidentally deleted that Google account >.
Congrats on the channelversary, Gavin! You are such a unique channel and personality here on UA-cam, I'm glad I found you. I was going through a rough time mentally at the end of last year, and your feature-length videos really helped occupy and distract me, so thank you for that. I love your editing style, and despite sometimes dealing with low self esteem sometimes you still put yourself out there and are unapologetically yourself, and I hope you know how much that helps so many people who watch your videos. I'm looking forward to seeing what shenanigans you'll get up to in the future 🙂
Aw thank you so much, your comment means the world to me, so glad I could be someone who can help on those hard days, and I hope you're doing much better now too ❤
I remember that the TBR card game was the first video I had watched of you! And loved the camping video - love looking back at your videos & love the content you bring out Gavin ❤
tbh I'm more of a lurker than anything else but I just wanted you to know that your videos are some of the only booktube videos that I rewatch again and again, everything you do is so funny and full of charm! your one piece videos especially because it is also my absolute favorite story ever as well!
Happy Anniversary, Gavin! I've been watching your channel for almost a year now and you always bring a smile to my face. Your videos is a such a source of comfort, can't thank you enough 💕
OMG I love all the Gavin Lore! I'm going to have to go back and watch so many videos!! I was laughing so hard at the Chronicles of Narnia skit!!!! You are hilarious! So happy I've found your channel!! ❤🤣😆
I have subscribed to your channel for (I THINK) almost two years and this is the first time seeing 2019 gavin and I'm absolutely DYING, this is absolutely iconic and I love everything about this video!
As someone who took like 12 hours to edit my mother's day vlog that is 48ish minutes long, I just have to say, this video must have taken forever to piece together! I love seeing the journey of Gavin over the past 5 years. I am also celebrating 5 years in July & working on 5 videos for it, so it was fun to see how you did yours. And it is encouraging to see all the changes you have gone through over the past 5 years & finding out what works for you. It looks like you've had a lot of good times over these past 5 years. If life has taught me anything, some years are great, some are shitty, but mostly they are a mix.
Honestly, your channel is what inspired me to start reading middle grade now for more of my own enjoyment and not just to share with my kids ❤ thank you for all of the content you put out ❤❤❤
I have loved every era of gavin! You have gotten me through some of the worst times, your videos are like visiting with a friend whenever im feeling down ❤
I was only able to watch this video now but, having been subscribed to you since you had 1K or so followers, it's been so wonderful to see your growth and your journey. And it was only expected, because you put so much thought and effort into your videos that no one could ever deny how far you'd go. Keep doing what you're doing. Keep being your incredible self. You're such an open-minded, creative, hard-working and conforting person. You'll only get further in life and continue to succeed.
Thanks for everything you create Gav - you were an absolute godsend during the panny-d, helped me get through it being on the other side of the world from my family. ❤️
This was such a great video. I loved watching your journey since you are one of my favourite booktubers! It was also encouraging to me since I just started book tube this year. It’s easy to forget that everyone starts somewhere and that I need to not compare myself to others, but just have fun and learn as I go. Your vlogs are seriously some of my favourites!
Love the Gilmore Girls skit! Your Marilyn one made me laugh out loud! I didn't even know about BookTube until 2021. I just started my own channel six months ago! So proud of myself. Didn't think I would ever actually get the courage to do it! I discovered that Most Haunted videos a few months ago and loved it! I love all your haunting videos
I have loved all your content 💙 you make me laugh so much. I appreciate you making this video showing us your growth in this booktube community, the good, the bad, and the ugly lol Never stop! CHEERS TO 5yrs 🥂
Happy belated anniversary! I loved that this video wasn't just about reading books but also a look at the last five years. It was so fun to see/hear about your highlights. Love your content and so excited to see what the future brings.
I think I found your channel end of 2020 or in 2021. This was an amazing walk down memory lane and seeing just how much you have grown and how confident you have become
This is such a great video, it's so interesting to see your journey. When you talked about that worst books video reaction fiasco, I got so angry all over again. I think you are an amazing person who deserves all the best. To the next 5 years!
This video is so wholesome and positive. I started a booktube channel early 2020 but then everything happened and while I still made videos I never made them public because while they, of course, were cringy, I was also rapidly and visually deteriorating from an untreated condition and did not want it pointed out. 😅🥺But anyway this gave me a bit more confidence to maybe try again someday. 🌄🌻
This video is so sweet! Congrats on your five years on booktube! I still cry laughing at your choking on the Cruella face mask (sorry 🤣) and I was already crying just knowing it was coming lol. I feel so honoured to have been along for the ride for so long!
Ohhhh as someone who just started following your channel in autumn last year I’m learning so much lore about your channel!! It’s so great that you got to interview all those middle grade authors and support them through your videos too!
My son is going to be 5 in August I remember being pregnant watching your first couple videos I’ve literally brought a whole other life into this world while watching your videos and in a way I feel like I’ve watched you grow up too over the last 5 years I’m so proud of you 😭😂💗 but seriously your channel has been a LIGHT in my life for 5 years truly never miss an upload even the documentary length ones 😂🔥 Happy 5 years on Booktube!!! 🌷😍
So many memories., I've watched from when you started. Thank you for all the amazing content and for being the such amazing and brilliant person that you are. Much love 😍
You're one of my favorite booktubers for a reason; love your videos so much, especially the haunted vlogs and your videos with Lexi. If it hadn't been for you, I would never have found my love for One Piece; like you, it's taken over my life and I wouldn't change it for anything. I have quite the collection that keeps growing and I'm slowly making my way through the manga and show. For those who don't like it; they don't know what they're missing. Keep being you.
I love how in 2019 you went from super nervous and quiet to maleficent cosplay so fast 😂😂😂
As soon as the outfits are out, I become a whole new person
@@GavinReadsItAll More cosplay in 2024, please. 😁
I love this!! I feel like I'm getting so much Gavin lore that I missed out on. Thanks for being here and continuing to make fresh and inventive content. you're the best!
Wouldn't be here without you Jesse, my booktube GOD ❤

The 2019 lore 🥹 look at us all bebe-aged 💜
And we still look so young after 5 years 💅
OMG THE CRUELLA MASK. fave moment still makes me cry with laughter
May the memory of Cruella live on 😂
SAME! I made me burst out laughing and still does
I love that it didn't take long for you to become the theatrical over the top Gavin we all love. The Gilmore Gav intro??? Iconic.
This is the only history class I’m willing to attend.
😂
3:18 OH MY GOD ANGELINA JOLIE COULD NEVER
I’m just so proud of you 🤍 I know it hasn’t always been easy but you take it all with grace. Never has it once stoped from being you. You are the red tread throughout my whole BookTube journey and still are. Thank you for being you Gav 🤍
You'll always be a huge highlight for me the past 5 years, love you so much ❤
5 years??? 🥳🥳🥳 the throwback clips are sending me ahhhh baby Gavin is so precious 🥹😭
I’m dying over the gingerbread reindeer 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 the dripping at the end of the clip
The clean up was not so fun haha

My favorite series will always be the haunted location with horror books ❤️ Awesoke to know that you love making them despite how costly they are- I really appreciate all that you do for this channel
Honestly if I could, I'd make at least one a month haha I LOVE creeping myself out at scary locations, it's the best haha
Goddammit Play Your TBR Right was such an era, I miss those videos so much
Didn't realise how much I'd miss the chaos
I miss it too

I was only able to watch this video now but, having been subscribed to you since you had 1K or so followers, it's been so wonderful to see your growth and your journey. And it was only expected, because you put so much thought and effort into your videos that no one could ever deny how far you'd go. Keep doing what you're doing. Keep being your incredible self. You're such an open-minded, creative, hard-working and conforting person. You'll only get further in life and continue to succeed.
I love this video! It was so fun to revisit memories from over the years, some of them I can’t believe were so long ago!!
Thanks for everything you create Gav - you were an absolute godsend during the panny-d, helped me get through it being on the other side of the world from my family. ❤️
Happy 5 years!!! Thank you for all the joy and entertainment you’ve brought us 💛 Here’s to 5 more! 🥂✨
I still remember the car scene when you met Becca! 😍
And Believathon 3 is now all grown up and became true crime & wine and slagatha ❤
Aww we love Slagatha’s humble beginnings haha
I have been picking away at this video. As a fan who only started watching you last year, I really like this "best of" your years on UA-cam!
This was such a great video. I loved watching your journey since you are one of my favourite booktubers! It was also encouraging to me since I just started book tube this year. It’s easy to forget that everyone starts somewhere and that I need to not compare myself to others, but just have fun and learn as I go. Your vlogs are seriously some of my favourites!
Happy Anniversary!! Omg I would have cried if someone from head office had to come in and talk to me at work 😅
Right?! And yay thank you so much ❤
Your comedy is definitely my favourite part of your videos over the years. The mama mia has to be my fav.
Love the Gilmore Girls skit! Your Marilyn one made me laugh out loud! I didn't even know about BookTube until 2021. I just started my own channel six months ago! So proud of myself. Didn't think I would ever actually get the courage to do it! I discovered that Most Haunted videos a few months ago and loved it! I love all your haunting videos
This brings me so much JOY! I’ve been here since the beginning and love this journey! ❤❤❤
I have loved all your content 💙 you make me laugh so much. I appreciate you making this video showing us your growth in this booktube community, the good, the bad, and the ugly lol Never stop! CHEERS TO 5yrs 🥂
CHEERS 🥂
Happy belated anniversary! I loved that this video wasn't just about reading books but also a look at the last five years. It was so fun to see/hear about your highlights. Love your content and so excited to see what the future brings.
I think I found your channel end of 2020 or in 2021. This was an amazing walk down memory lane and seeing just how much you have grown and how confident you have become
CTFU for the Most Haunted Vlog!!
Edit:
Gavin your humor and skits are top tier it's insane!!
So worth celebrating! Thanks for the fun flashbacks and sagey advice Gavin!
Thank you for being here
This is such a great video, it's so interesting to see your journey. When you talked about that worst books video reaction fiasco, I got so angry all over again. I think you are an amazing person who deserves all the best. To the next 5 years!
This video is so wholesome and positive. I started a booktube channel early 2020 but then everything happened and while I still made videos I never made them public because while they, of course, were cringy, I was also rapidly and visually deteriorating from an untreated condition and did not want it pointed out. 😅🥺But anyway this gave me a bit more confidence to maybe try again someday. 🌄🌻
Sending you so much love and confidence if you ever do Booktube again, you'd be very welcome as a creator ❤
2022 was when I started watching you (so of course it's the best😉) Congratulations on 5 years and cheers to many more Gavin!💕
This video is so sweet! Congrats on your five years on booktube! I still cry laughing at your choking on the Cruella face mask (sorry 🤣) and I was already crying just knowing it was coming lol. I feel so honoured to have been along for the ride for so long!
Omg i first watched your Maleficent video and I’ve been here ever since. Such a good look back!
Ohhhh as someone who just started following your channel in autumn last year I’m learning so much lore about your channel!! It’s so great that you got to interview all those middle grade authors and support them through your videos too!
I kept watching and I’m so sorry how your 2020 turned out with some middle grade authors 🫣
You're a treasure :) Fantastic way to celebrate your achievements. Keep up the great work!
My son is going to be 5 in August I remember being pregnant watching your first couple videos I’ve literally brought a whole other life into this world while watching your videos and in a way I feel like I’ve watched you grow up too over the last 5 years I’m so proud of you 😭😂💗 but seriously your channel has been a LIGHT in my life for 5 years truly never miss an upload even the documentary length ones 😂🔥
Happy 5 years on Booktube!!! 🌷😍
Aw wow happy early birthday to your son!! And thank you for sticking with me all this time, I appreciate you so so much!! ❤
Love Love LOVED this video, getting to see all these old clips and taking a trip down memory lane
Loved this video! I found you through the visiting a haunted place and reading videos in 2023 so keep them coming I love them 🥰
So many memories., I've watched from when you started. Thank you for all the amazing content and for being the such amazing and brilliant person that you are. Much love 😍
You're one of my favorite booktubers for a reason; love your videos so much, especially the haunted vlogs and your videos with Lexi. If it hadn't been for you, I would never have found my love for One Piece; like you, it's taken over my life and I wouldn't change it for anything. I have quite the collection that keeps growing and I'm slowly making my way through the manga and show. For those who don't like it; they don't know what they're missing. Keep being you.
You're iconic Gavin! ❤ Thanks for making this video, was really fun to watch
