This forgets the third type: the hate reader. They only talk about books from authors they despise
In other words, every Goodreads user
Please drop a channel name, I need this in my life 🛐
@@stillwaitingforgodot3341honestlysophie I think it’s spelled. LONG videos about books she read, usually does not like them 😂
Love her humor
@@stillwaitingforgodot3341ive seen reads with rachel who does that
Reads With Rachel does kinda fit into that category, but I can’t help finding her content to be entertaining and interesting.
“I read only a third of it and got really sad.”
This is me
That hit all of us
The main reason why I never finished “The Jungle.” Just… God…
I cannot finish a story if it blatantly leads to an unsatisfying ending or have a "bad ending" for no reason.
Im a 130 pages into american gods and still not hooked :(
ManCT inspires me.. My parents said if i get 70K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging..
So humble, he even lets us know when he fails to reach his 500 book goals by 3

I can't believe Man Carrying Thing hand-made 6 gold plating pins just for this satire sketch. Can't wait for the next funny meme!
This is not a meme channel, it's a book channel
The pins are real and available through kickstarter.😢
I know right, it'd actually be great if they were real so I could actually buy them! Anyway, I gotta get back to watching 30 second meme videos
@@LuisSierra42 The channel description is part of the prank, you should know that:)
@@NicKeLas It's not. I've been subscribed to this channel for years and all Man does is talk about books
only 63% of his video is advertising, the absolute legend!
I kept flip-flopping over whether the ad was real or was a parody ad for a while. 😅
I was halfway through the advertisement before I realized it wasn't satire about bigger, but lazier, booktubers coasting on their channel's success to sell merch. Thankfully the legend never misses deadlines. The absolute merchant.
i loved the bit in the end when he pretended to plug pins! that's some next-level comedy you don't see every day
He's actually selling pins on Kickstarter.
Wouldn't it be funny if you actually introduced your credit card information in the link on the description and spend 50+$ on these pins? You know... as a bit
Sponsor block robs me of these moments.
@@JC20XX:(
Starting wheel of time and never finishing it was actually genius.
I've been subscribed and waiting for you to post the next book ever since.
this is how i win
@@ManCarryingThingThe absolute legend, he always misses
How did you know I'd done that?!

@@namantherockstar shut up :)
Damnit Jake, you can’t keep acting like you weren’t made in a lab to be funny on UA-cam. Come home. The test tubes miss you!
wouldn't be here without you ❤️
I know this guy!
Yea its the guy who carries goblins@@josephazzaro5820
fancy seeing YOU here good sir!
Blessed by the Goblin himself!
Thank you for telling me about this cool project! I will now go buy a Daniel Greene pin 👍
wtf
based
Betrayal can never come from the enemy.
A bit of a sidenote: Your book videos are really underrated. The video you made on the Lolita cover opened my eyes to the relationship artists can have with the text. Don't feel too bad if book videos aren't working with your schedule! We'll be here for the next review regardless.
aw thanks
Oh yes, the Lolita video is how I discovered this channel. To be honest, it was quite very confusing afterwards.
Oh is that why I’m subscribed to this channel? I remember appreciating that video
Lolita is such a great video! His other reviews are great too
I love the realistic, true to life physique on the Man Carrying pin. Details like that really help with immersion.
i am art deco muscle man under my shirt, actually
@@ManCarryingThing Take your shirt off then, really rake in the subs. Hell, wrestle Jimmy Nutts live and pretend you're book characters.
I feel like ive seen enough of this man carrying little things (books, decorative pins) that im ready for him to start carrying BIG things (dogs, boxes full of cans)
Boxes full of dogs, cans full of books, dogs full of dog food.
I can't believe this video is 2 entire minutes long. I barely made it to the end!
Man Carrying thing may not be a French town, but he never fails to be Nice
*lents applaudissements*
The ad was somehow so well put I didn't even realize that was a legit ad
This took a booktube related turn I didn’t expect…
Ha, classic ManCarrThing. Can't wait for the Song of Susanna review, been waiting 3 years for it so I know it's gonna be great.
Then there's Man Carrying Thing: just do sketches with the occasional relation to books so you can still say you're an educational and academic channel.
That's for tax purposes.
I love how it's the beaten down version barely holding on to his enjoyment of reading who has really nailed the merchandise selling.
I can really tell he liked all of his collaborators equally!
He has his own booktuber pin, the absolute legend!
"I read only a third of it and got really sad" and "I'm trying, man" were too real. Sometimes books are just too hard to get through. I enjoy reading, not struggling.
Indeed. I still dunno how I'll ever get through all the books I'm planning to read, especially when I know that at least 10 of them are tough classics.
It can be hard to judge.
Sometimes the struggle is absolutely worth it. Nothing of real value comes easy.
Sometimes it's actually too confusing, too difficult or you're not ready for the book yet.
This can be the real struggle of an ambitious reader.
Is it because of the language? I'm a non-native, this is how I feel to English classic literature.
Also, they're very depressing. It made me all gloomy, I can't.
@@valhatan3907 I feel like, if suicidal depression is a real threat from certain books, you should stop reading for health reasons. I would rather read studies and articles on terrible things than immerse myself for days in some godawful story I don't care about just because its a classic and says something important that could have been easily summarized.
@@Badficwriter The thing is, you can't sum up an empathetic, immersive and well-elaborated reading experience.
That's what novels (and real life experiences, while we're at it) are all about.
By the way, I don't know what you're reading, but not all of the difficult classics are depressing or melancholic.
He never stops advertising, the absolute legend!
That merch part of the vid was just _so_ realistic?! If I didn't know any better, I'd swear you _actually_ had some real life merch to sell. 🤣
What really spurgled my burger was realizing that he is actually selling them. I'm so disappointed. I guess I'll buy them and resell on ebay.
THIS MAN. CHANGED HIS DESCRIPTION. TO BOOKS.
That exact feeling, when you wanted to joke about description but the video predicted it...
Brings a tear to my eye to see Man Carrying Oathbringer once again :')
The absolute misser, he never legends! Wait no...
Please release my family from the basement.
The absolute kidnapper, he never releases them from his captivity!
I'm ashamed of how far we got into the ad before I realized it wasn't part of the 2nd type of book channel.
A comedy video about books channels? This channel has come full circle now!
The concept of personalized pins with other booktubers is so cool, you guys look like some sort secret society.
thats just medicated me vs unmedicated me. 😂
I can't believe Man Carrying Thing joined the growing trend where a product's value for the consumer is increasingly overshadowed by its potential to increase sales of product for the carrier of thing. He never misses the insatiable appetite of capitalism, the absolute legend!
I have read one classic and it is the one he was holding up saying he couldn’t read. I’ve never felt so powerful
Why are you so funny
I really felt the second one. I've been reading the Dark Tower series since 2009 and I'm still only a quarter of the way through the fifth book. It's rare that I find the time or motivation to sit down and properly read a book. At this rate, I might be lucky enough to finish the series by 2029 if my math is correct.
I like the 2nd booktuber because he doesn't read books or carry out his life goals. So inspiring.
"For those who want me to finish that series I started..."
(Has a picture of The Way of Kings show up)
"I'm trying man...."
I can relate so much to this, last year, I've finished like 4 books, and 3 of them were Mistborn..... and the other one was Warbreaker...... and I only finished half of TWoK...... And I don't know if I'll ever be able to finish book one, let alone ALL of Stormlight....
Reading books is hard as fuck...
For me it got easier to read the stormlight books after the first one because I kinda knew what was going on
“I read only a 1/3 of it, then got really sad”
Really does epitomize my experience with your book recommendations
*cough* _Blood_ *cough* _Meridian_ *cough cough*
Thank you Man Holding Book, you are truly revolutionary in the booking industry.
"I finished them... Twice!" while holding up a copy of god damn OATHBRINGER?! Fantastic addition to that bit.
For those wondering, Oathbringer is the third book in a series of books that makes all of LotR look like a novella. Oathbringer alone has about 1250 pages. Its audiobook is FIFTY FIVE hours long. The LotR trilogy is barely over 60 hours IN TOTAL.
Great books though, highly recommend.
I hear Wind and Truth might be longer
@@purple1441 There's the record holder : that Smash Bros fanfic.
@@Game_Hero Actually I think a Kantai Collection fanfiction might have surpassed it.
thank you for explaining that, i had no idea /gen
Tbf, Stormlight may be longer but it is a quicker read than LotR 😂
He never uses the "skip self promo" button on Sponsor Block, the absolute legend!
That merch looks amazing! I can't wait to enjoy my goblin pin!
my drunk ass was waiting for the cook channels punchline
over half of the video was an ad for the pins💀
was expecting a funny sketch and all I got was a reminder that I haven't done my taxes this year
The thing the man is carrying is all the unfinished books (and his merch) and also our dissatisfaction that he still hasn't finished dark tower (edit: yes ive been 2/3 through wizard and glass for 3 years but I can still carry judgement)
He never stops carrying judgement, the absolute hypocrite.
i love how both you and merphy are like "i dont care about anything else i just want to outsell daniel"
Wait did I just get bamboozled into watching an ad
“I read only a third of it and then got really sad” me too bro
Bro just unironically booktubed when I thought it was gonna be ironically not booktubing.
Anyways,
He never tubes! The absolute Book!
went over to the kickstarter to check it out. Everone has happy normal photos except ManCarryingThing. Perfect.
Didn’t watch this video, was too busy reading a book.
Literary Classic was out of my league? Nah! Red Rising was out of my league. Hey nice pin!
Cgs on the pins and reaching ur goal! Hope y’all don’t get too many issues
Your creativity never ceases to astound me, Jake. Amazing video. Again, love your design! :D
thanks petrik!
"Godspell BHHS" will blow you away. It was an Amazon bestseller for a short while. Guy writes about his times at Beverly Hills High School in the 70s. Unreal.
Also, I did not expect a PeruseProject reference, like what?! 🤯
You forgot my type where i dont post for months and then just a normal 40-60min video just rambling about a book I loved 😄 The pins look so great!
It took me way too long to realize that was an actual ad and not just a parody of an ad
The segue from content to ad was so subtle it was almost meta.
I feel the "struggling to finish Wheel of Time". I love the series, and it'll definitely be in my top 3 once I'm finished, but wow. I'm normally a fast reader, but I've been on this series for about a year and a half now, and I still have 2 and a half books to go
must admit, i really love that youy are a booktoober by trade, and only master sketch master by hobby (or accidental trade to support your book channel). It's both cute, endearing and funny
That moment when you realise that Man on average carries two times more often than you watch his youtube channel meaning you will never be able to finish watching his videos.
The advertisement bit was my favorite part of the video
Gotta say, it's crazy how often you post videos. Great job, it's nice to get laughs from you. Keep up the good work.
Did we just get our regular 15-second MCT video followed by 2 minutes of advertising? And I happily watched the whole thing? Truly your are a god among insects.
Babe wake up, man dropped the new thing he's carrying
The ad was more entertaining than 90% of content on UA-cam
Finally. Man is carrying thing. Thank you book.
Would love for you to keep making Stormlight content!
“I read only a third of it and got really sad.”
That's how most "literary classics" go for me.
finally a pin i can shamelessly add to my backpack
I watched it and didn’t realize that the second half wasn’t a skit until it was over
Holy shit post bat-man carrying things. Time to do some buying.
Bro I just started getting book video channels as recommended lately and now Man Carrying Thing does it? He truly does carry the book channel empire on UA-cam.
I just finished reading Oathbringer a few weeks ago! Such an insanely good series. Oathbringer is literally an inspiration (more specifically Dalinar) and I hope the Stormlight Archive fanbase becomes as big as Lord of the Rings' fanbase. Life Before Death!
Life Before Death, Radiant.
I can only agree. Life before bed!
Gotta love the hussle in making this video 2/3rds advertisement
I love how you still do book videos here, especially since our tastes overlap, so I’m always getting new recommendations 🎉
“Hello my beautiful friends” flash bang
I can't even tell what's a bit and what's not anymore. It took me way too long to realize the merchandising ad wasn't a bit.
I'm not sure if the advertisement was a part of the video, or for real, and at this point, I'm too afraid to ask.
I just started looking into book UA-cam yesterday, so freaky timing.
Hahahahaha! Ok, this is the third video I watched of yours and had to subscribe, you are brilliant! Thank you for being here and sharing yourself!
I just looked at Man’s description, and it checks out. He’s a BookTuber.
im glad to hear you are still at least trying to finish them. I will watch your other videos in wait knowing that at the very least you haven't abandoned wheel of time.
1:24 that Atlas Shrugged design actually looks really cool.
I almost thought this was a real ad about books. What a comic legend.
0:24
I'm planning on making book videos for my commentary channel and they're 100% going to be JUST LIKE THIS 🤣🤣🤣
"I'm trying man" had me in stitches
I couldn't tell whether the ad was ironic or not until it went on for a bit
I saw the guitar and I thought this was going to be an apology video
I love the clarification about failed booktuber in the description
extended parody
Feel like jake should make a video about all those half finished books we all rack up over time and how annoying it is when they are brought into a conversation and you either choose to stay out of the discussion or end fumbling through, only half remembering the book.
I like that when he say "let me tell you" video instantly end because addon skip part with selfpromoting. So realistic
The parabola! Classic graph of those cheeky book channels!
absolute madlad, literally never sells out
The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed.
