Ahhh, welcome to BookTube!! It's so so exciting to see more Black people on here and you sound like such an awesome person with warm energy! I've subbed, and as someone who's been doing this for a while, it's great to see you here!
@@Yesica1993because it’s nice to have people who look like you (and maybe see the world the same way that you do) sharing the spaces that you also enjoy.
As a black man, it's so nice to see more black people getting into booktube, makes me wanna create my own channel someday haha. Welcome bro! I'll check your videos out.
Welcome to booktube! I’ve been watching videos within this niche for over 10 years now and I can count on one hand how many Black men I’ve seen. Your perspective and voice is very much needed. Can’t wait to see what you read!
Omg HEY! 👋🏾 I’ve only just seen this so apologies! HUUUUUGE welcome to BookTube! What a fabulous video and I know your channel is going to be a hit. It’s so amazing to see more black/POC booktubers! Also, your taste in literature is so interesting. I’m really excited to see more from you. Oh and of course I’ve subbed right away. ☺️🫶🏾 P.S make sure you share your Goodreads or Storygraph so we can all go and follow you. ☺️
Hey, Nickelle! Thank you so much for the warm welcome. Watching your channel has been such an inspiration! Thanks for the tips on linking to goodreads!
You would not believe how many educated people are really stuck in their bubble. I've met so many doctors and engineers and they're very smart but only when it comes to their field - they can only talk about their work and that's it. It makes people very capable but so boring, like what do you talk to them about that's not their work? So, seeing someone like you is a breath of fresh air! Welcome to booktube! Hopefully, I'll join the ranks soon :D
As someone who recently graduated with an Information Systems degree, I can definitely relate to feeling like reading as a hobby is not always well regarded in tech spaces. I’m excited to see someone with a similar background join this community. Welcome to booktube! 🎉
that's fascinating to me. why isn't reading more popular in tech spaces you think? not an appreciation for the humanities in general? i've seen some people argue that...
Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants by Robin Wall Kimmer! This is one of my favorite books of all time! The reflection of Kimmer's life, loving our mother earth, learning respiratory with all life, the science of so many different things, and so much more! This book made me reflect on my own life so much!
Definitely agree with you on reading physical books. After staring at a computer screen all day, ink on paper is a relief for both the eyes and the mind. Welcome! 😺✌️
as a literature student who feels a bit lonely with her love for reading sometimes because her friends are mostly STEM people, this video made me smile. also, I really enjoy the sound quality in this vid and your voice in general! i'm excited to see where your bookish adventures will lead you.
I totally agree that reading is a way to step outside your normal perspectives. We're so often stuck in echo chambers. Welcome to YT! I'm a newbie, too. Looking forward to watching more of your videos!
Your voice and cadence is so calming, the way you express and articulate your thoughts is really compelling, and your smile makes me smile!! And your thumbnail is great! I'm very excited for your videos!
Immediately subscribed - love your unique background and intention (I also work in tech!) and appreciate your calming, articulate voice. Fantastic to see more black booktubers in my feed lately too! x
Welcome! Great to hear your answers. Making videos about books is definitely a great way to better remember and think about what you’ve read in more depth. I’d have forgot most of what I’ve read if I didn’t record it. 😅 I’ve been getting back into Greek myths after watching an excellent recent series on Amazon prime that describes these stories. Looking forward to hearing more of your thoughts about what you’re reading.
Welcome to the warm and wonderful community of booktube. You’ve listed many of my favorite books! Love your calm and thoughtful style. I’m looking forward to your future conversations!
Welcome to Book Tube from the land down under... Australia. Reading books is a way to share lifetimes through infinite possibilities.... Then a movie shatters my mental health causing a mental breakdown. Hypersanity is having a mental breakthrough reaching new heights. Continue your passions friend.
Hi Dolapo! I really resonated with this video. I attended an engineering college for my undergrad and got a CS/Math degree, and for my graduate I attended another CS program at a public university. I loved my peers and those programs but they definitely tended to be cultural monoliths! I completely empathize that being a lit fic person in those cultural silos can be discouraging; not being into videogames/anime/fantasy/tech-bro culture has often made me feel a bit like an outcast at times. I’ve found that booktube can be a good outlet for finding people with different interests!
WELCOME Dolapo!! Booktube is so fun! I 100% relate to reading a bunch of self-help nonfiction and having the desire to move away from that. Happy to see fellow STEM major in Booktube. I studied Chemical Engineering in college 😀Excited to see more videos from you!
Welcome! I’m a math teacher (so STEM-adjacent, but sometimes I get imposter syndrome when I call myself STEM EEKI) who loves to read and sometimes that’s hard for people to comprehend. So happy to have you in this space! You are very well spoken and calming.
I think I can relate to you! I lived abroad for years and made friends who love reading there, but now that I'm back in the U.S. and in a new city, I don't have anyone I can see/talk to regularly who reads much at all. I'm also a STEM person so it was already hard to find those reading friends in the first place 😅 Having the online book community is such a great way to hear about a variety of books and see others' thoughts on what they're reading... somehow I feel such a sense of connection with people I don't even know. Welcome to booktube, I'm so happy to have come across your channel as you seem so kind and interesting ☺
So grateful for all the new booktube channels, and for the algorithm showing them to me !! On earth we're briefly gorgeous is an incredible book, I'm looking forward your review 🌞 As for recommendation, if you haven't read it yet, Open Water by Caleb Azumah Nelson is truly brilliant and I'll never shut up about it!
Welcome to BookTube Dolapo! I am also in a career with a very specific worldview and culture (I'm an electrical apprentice) and joined BookTube to have discussions with other readers with similar interests. We have some overlap in reading taste in that I enjoy reading books that expand my worldview and allow me to learn about the experiences of others. I subscribe to a lot of channels that talk mostly about fantasy and yes, I love a good fantasy book, but I have been wanting to find other BookTubers with a wider variety of fiction interests, so I'm very happy to find your channel!
Hello! I totally agree -- I love an immersive fantasy story but also love a book that allows me to learn about the experience of others. Thank you for your comment!
i really resonate with what you said about wanting to properly get to grips with the ideas and perspectives behind the books you read, and also resonate with that eclectic desire to expand into all sorts of genres - i feel like i am also in that place right know where i just want to expand my horizons, both in terms of reading widely but also DEEPLY! I'm really excited to follow your discoveries and discussions 😊
i have not had the greatest day today so i feel so lucky that this popped into my recommended !! the chill music, your calm voice and good book taste, everything in this vid is just so *chef's kiss* its so exciting to see more poc in the booktube space !!! as someone who is poc and also has that combined passion for stem/computer science and literature, i really feel like i've found a kindred spirit (: keep up the great work, i can't wait to see what you put out next !
Ahhh! I have also seen NickellesNook's booktube newbie tag and have been thinking of participating myself. While I'm not exactly *in* tech (I am a visual designer in the Bay Area), I totally understand what you mean about wanting to broaden your interests in literature. Welcome, welcome! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on all kinds of books (:
Amazing selection of book examples, I really love how wide variety of books you are interested in, and I have wished to find more booktubers who go deep into the discussions. I’m thrilled to follow and see what kind of content you come up with!
Welcome! Can't wait to see more from your channel. Super interesting taste in books and genres! And pretty sure I'm already smarter just from watching this one vid.😆
Ah! So happy to find your channel! Welcome! Love what you said about being in an echo chamber. That's why I like to have a diverse group of Booktubers to follow--both in background and taste--and happy to add you to it! I'm hoping to be a diverse voice too--I'm obviously a white woman, but I have a lot of qualities that make my perspective unique. Love this community!
New follower and welcome. Look forward to hearing your thoughts and sharing your journey. Good to see a black man talking books and ect. Happy Holidays🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄☺️☺️☺️☺️
Instant subscriber! Perhaps it is the way the computer science part of your brain naturally works, but I love the way that you crafted your responses in such an organized & formulaic, yet thoughtful and warm manner! Which sounds a lot like what you're trying to marry between your two interests of tech and books. And very much a fan of books that challenge our perspectives and engage us in true critical thinking. Looking forward to more of your Booktube recs :)
I’m late but so glad I found your channel! I’m a librarian at a stem university and found that our comp sci and engineering students love talking about books. Many use reading as a way to destress from their rigorous coursework which I think is great
Totally agree I loved this video and I like that you want to delve deeper into the books versus just giving recommendations. I started my Booktube last week haven't done my into video yet but I want to really discuss the books I have read, answer questions, do a deep dive of the characters and what the author is relaying in the story. Hope to get a lot of this structure from your channel.
When I first heard you speak, I said to myself that this gentleman has to be some type of engineer. Then you said you said you were a computer scientist, and I thought close enough. I work with network, electrical and RF engineers along we a few computer scientists. I must admit that I do not recall any of the folks at work discussing books/literature. It is mainly video games I hear about. I love the fact that you would like to discuss the thoughts and ideas that authors hope we discover while reading their books. I have subsçribed to your channel and look forward to hearing from you. Respectfully, Donna
This is the best idea ever! BEST cure for winter blues. I have made so many incredible international connections from BookTube and have had my thoughts changed so much as a result of exposure to new ideas and new books. Welcome :)
seeing this being recommended couldnt have occurred at a better time; i just finished a rhetoric course on transhumanism and, now, seeing your interests in literature and CS feel like a blend catered to extend my interests in navigating between the two! basically, a complicated way of saying im looking forward to ur future videos :)
Your warm, calming voice + that sweater = perfect cozy vibe! I'm very excited to see where this journey will take you. I studied computer science and literature and I'm so interested in your thoughts on these books and your experience of being in the literature space in general.
Love the range of books you're reading. Also the aim of having a slower and more in-depth examination of books; that's what I am doing as well. Look forward to your content.
Welcome! "Why do you love reading" love that question! I'm not a big literature fiction reader and happy to have a new channel to get recommendations from and love to hear the conversations and discussions to be had.
I’m so happy that you decided to create this space for literature and tech. I’m a PM from Brazil that loves books and booktube. I’m excited to see what you post next 😊
Hi, nice to meet you, Dolapo :) I really enjoyed this; immediately even, I subscribed within the first 20 seconds haha. Looking forward to hearing you talk about books. Best of luck with your channel!
I was just browsing feeling my own seasonal blues and this video shows up, damn if I’m not immediately subscribing ❤ Books got me through this year, hear people talk about it is always a joy 😊 welcome to booktube 👋🏼
welcome Dolapo!!! No pressure but with how much you talked about craving discussion, you might enjoy making a discord for this community as it grows. Sending all the best vibes!
Welcome to BookTube! I love your energy and your plans for videos. It's always nice to meet someone else with more serious and intelligent tastes in books.
Welcome to booktube! I'm a Data Scientist, so sort of computer science-adjacent but I found very few booktube content creators who are in STEM fields, despite the fact, that in my experience with my friends and acquaintances, a lot of people in STEM love reading, both fiction and non-fiction. So I'm looking forward to seeing future videos from you and have a more tech related perspective in the booktube space!
I saw your second video, “3 books that made me fall in love with fiction again” i think that was the title. Months ago. Ive been waiting for your booktube newbie tag…. Wow u actually made one, so happy
Welcome! Thanks for the great video. I'm looking forward to seeing more from your channel. I too am looking to read more widely and think outside of my work-headspace. Happy reads!
I'm not even joking when I say I squealeddd like a fan girl when I saw your video suggested to me!! We loveee to see Black men on booktubeeee!!! I'm extending my warmest welcome to you🥰🥰🥰 Immediately subscribed.
Hi Dolapo! Your book selection is sooo varied, I love that!! I think its easy to fall into reading niches within booktube, so the fact that you read so widely is exciting! Very very happy to have come across your page. Looking forward to following along with your journey on here 😊
Recently my feed has been blowing up with new black booktubers and I’m living for it!!
Ahhh, welcome to BookTube!! It's so so exciting to see more Black people on here and you sound like such an awesome person with warm energy! I've subbed, and as someone who's been doing this for a while, it's great to see you here!
Hi Joel! thank you for your kind comment, and for stopping by. Appreciate it 🙂
Who cares what anyone's skin tone is?!
@@Yesica1993 Shut up :)
@@Yesica1993If you are not black do not speak on it.
@@Yesica1993because it’s nice to have people who look like you (and maybe see the world the same way that you do) sharing the spaces that you also enjoy.

You had me at “expand past my current horizons” and “seek the widest perspectives”. Deep respect. Take me with you.
For the fellow techie... Book Tropes = Design Patterns
I haven't heard it described like this before but that makes so much sense. 😮
LOLLL

I love how varied your book tastes are! I identify with the struggle & finding the balance between electronic and 'real' books.
Thank you! It's such a tough balance. Digital is just soooooooo convenient though....hahaha

Love an analytical look on book tube, and the way you answer these questions! Your range of books is so good, love some Naomi Klein!
Welcome to BookTube! I love your energy and your plans for videos. It's always nice to meet someone else with more serious and intelligent tastes in books.
So happy to come across your channel! Welcome to Booktube ☺️📚
Welcome to booktube! I'm a Data Scientist, so sort of computer science-adjacent but I found very few booktube content creators who are in STEM fields, despite the fact, that in my experience with my friends and acquaintances, a lot of people in STEM love reading, both fiction and non-fiction. So I'm looking forward to seeing future videos from you and have a more tech related perspective in the booktube space!
I really enjoyed your intro. I just started a #booktube channel, too. You have a very soothing voice. Maybe audiobook narrator in your future?
I saw your second video, “3 books that made me fall in love with fiction again” i think that was the title. Months ago. Ive been waiting for your booktube newbie tag…. Wow u actually made one, so happy
Welcome! Thanks for the great video. I'm looking forward to seeing more from your channel. I too am looking to read more widely and think outside of my work-headspace. Happy reads!
Thank you, happy reading!
Booktube recommendations are working ovettime lately! So glad I came across your video, subbed. Ps: You have the most pleasing voice to listen to haha

Hi Dolapo! Your book selection is sooo varied, I love that!! I think its easy to fall into reading niches within booktube, so the fact that you read so widely is exciting! Very very happy to have come across your page. Looking forward to following along with your journey on here 😊
