    I really love your whole vibe! 💜 I also agree that many adults forget to just have fun, especially without any expectations of gaining something directly from it (like what you said - having fun JUST to have *fun* !). Reading is one of my favorite ways to have fun too, hence why I also started a booktube, haha. What better channel topic than something that brings joy? 😄

    Hello and welcome to booktube ☺ I'm new to booktube as well and I've been loving it so much. I'm super introverted as well and I feel the 1 thing a day max. When it comes to plans during the week, I truly prefer to have one big plan per week and if there's more than that, I feel like my social battery is in the negatives and takes days to recover.
    I loved the Vampire Academy series and still have all of the books on my bookshelf. For apocalyptic books, if you haven't read it yet, I would highly recommend the Black Winter series by Darcy Coates. I'm currently on the second book and I love the apocalyptic and creepy vibes.

    Hi Rachael. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your insecurities. You are definitely not alone! I feel like I have love for every single human on this planet, but I'm too shy to allow them to get to know me and I feel weird being myself around mostly anyone. The feeling of being seen when you don't want to be is such a weird one. Very involuntary and hard for people to understand, who don't feel the same. I'm also very sensitive of being misunderstood. I don't care about being right, as long as I'm just understood correctly XD And what you said about entering a group or community that is already close-knit, I feel you. Wow, being a human could be a lot easier, huh?! And then I'm living a privileged life. Anyhoo. Welcome to booktube from a fellow newbie. You're doing great and try not to be to hard on yourself. It's for fun, right? :) All the best.
