Top 5...#8

Hello there internet! Today i'm here with another of my Top 5's, this time i'm going on over to the BookTube community and discussing the Top 5 BookTubers i have loved watching during 2013!

Now i love a lot of the people in the BookTube community and it has been really hard to narrow it down to five, but i did it! So, if you haven't already, go and check out all these wonderful people!

5 - Jesse (jessethereader)

Okay so i've gone back to try and find exactly when i started watching Jesse's videos and i'm pretty sure this video was the first one of his i watched, and then i immediately subscribed. I love Jesse's videos and i think he seems like one of the nicest guys in the world. His videos put a smile on my face and he has an awesome taste in books! 

4 - Raeleen (padfootandprongs07)

So this is the first video of Raeleen's i ever watched, and that was back at the end of 2011...i so didn't think it was that long ago! But i love Raeleen's channel. Her reviews are great, her tags are great, she's just great really. I'm pretty sure she was the first person from BookTube that i ever watched, and i'm still watching her videos 2 years later, so clearly she's one of the best ones!

3 - Catriona (LittleBookOwl)

Catriona is probably one of my favourite people on YouTube in general. Her videos are funny and she seems really awesome and  she has a great taste in books, which is always a good thing! She genuinely seems like one of the nicest people and i just love watching her videos because she seems so lovely. I honestly cannot remember when i started watching her videos, or what the first one was, but they're all great so you should definitely check her out!

2 - Ben (benjaminoftomes)

Okay i'm pretty sure Ben is the only English BookTuber i watch? And he's great! (wow how many times can i say great in one post?) Ben makes me laugh in basically every video he posts and i really love that. He's probably also the BookTuber i think has the most similar taste in books..? Maybe? Either way he likes really great books, and he makes really great videos and subscribing to him was one of the best things i did YouTube wise in 2013!

1 - Ariel (Ariel Bissett )

Ariel is not only my favourite BookTuber, she is also just my favourite person on the whole of YouTube and the internet in general. I adore all of her videos. She makes me laugh, and she makes me think about things, she makes me want to read books i wouldn't normally read, and her videos just generally make me happy. I started watching her videos from, i think, the third video she put up on her channel? (I know she had a channel before, but i'm not 100% on what that was called...) But i found her on 'Ariel Bissett' and i've just loved her and her videos ever since!

So there we go! My top 5 BookTubers of 2013! I can't wait to see more from them and the rest of the wonderful BookTubers that i watch in 2014, and i hope you all have a wonderful New Years!

Book Identity.

Anyone who loves to read knows that every time you start reading a new series you just become part of a whole new world. Now as soon as you start to fall in love you start to imagine yourself in that world; where you would live, who you'd be friends with, basically everything that you would do if you were to actually live in this world. 

So when I was watching YouTube earlier i saw a new tag over on LittleBookOwl's channel that seemed like a fun thing to do. (I've changed some of the questions slightly to fit the books and series's I've read because I hadn't read 2 of the ones they chose.)

What dystopian/fantastical work would you live in? 

My automatic answer would be the world of Harry Potter, but I think I'm going to go for the world in The Mortal Instruments. 

Who would be you boyfriend?

I'm torn between choosing a long time favourite and a recent one...Draco or Jace....hmmm....I'm going to go for Draco Malfoy. 

Who would be your godly mother/father? (Percy Jackson series) 

I'm going to go for Hades. That could be fun. 

Would you be a downworlder or nephilim? (The Mortal Instruments series)

Nephilim. I want to be a shadowhunter more than pretty much anything.  

Would you be a part of a 'vegetarian' family or a regular nomad? (Twilight series) 

Regular, blood drinking nomad vampire. Unless I could be married to Jasper, then I choose that.

What district would you live in? (The Hunger Games trilogy)

Either district 4 with Finnick, or the Capitol, pre-uprising.

What house would you be in? (Harry Potter series)

SLYTHERIN. Easiest decision ever.
