    Gareth,thank you so much for this heartfelt tribute to my darling daughter. She loved all her booktube friends and so enjoyed meeting up in London. She told me how very kind you were on that long journey to the station. She was so pleased to find another Bradbury and Wyndham fan. Thank you for taking the time to make this really special video,it means a lot to me. I'm Alice's mum -Jane. 💔

    A lovely tribute. I loved hearing Alice talk about Agatha Christie; the little crocheted Poirot on her shelf always gave me a smile. Rest In Peace, Alice, you will be missed.

    Lovely tribute, she was a lovely woman, and it is a huge shock. I watched her episodes and couldn't wait for the next one. I enjoyed talking to her in the comments section. RIP

    I'm heartbroken as well. Alice and I were slowly buddy reading our way through Ray Bradbury and we had planned on reading 2 more in July and August. We had so many wonderful chats about Bradbury, as well as so many other books, too. She will be greatly missed- thanks for sharing your lovely thoughts and memories.

    Very brave mate.
    I’ve been reeling for days now. The only thing that’s bringing a smile is watching Alice’s videos again from the start. What a brave man Jim is and how lovely he has left Alice’s channel up so we can be with her still.
    What a terrible loss.

    Alice was a lovely person. She and I did 3 or 4 Buddy reads of Ray Bradbury books and shared lots of messages back and forth. We were going to read Dandelion Wine this August! She told me I should check out your channel because of your interest in Ray Bradbury. I’m still in shock.
