Jay Shay | A Third Kick at the GarbAugust Can! @JayShayy | Uploaded August 2022 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
Where I try and fail again to make an acceptable GarbAugust video. The legendarily stinky Booktube event where we celebrate the lovely trash that readers love to rub all over their brains.
Put on by various booktubers but mostly issuing out of the mind of Olly @CriminOllyBlog .
His announcement video (which lists the many many co-hosts):
youtu.be/blUd8b30CPo
His latest video which I mention, ‘Why readers owe it to themselves to read TRASH - more thoughts on trashy books’:
youtu.be/coatMEO3ZzM
Check out the fun prompts and the many interesting videos he and fellow hosts have made debating trash!
***
Book mentioned:
Split Infinity (Apprentice Adept #1)
Pier Anthony
1980
Blue Adept (Apprentice Adept #2)
Piers Anthony
1981
Juxtaposition (Apprentice Adept #3)
Piers Anthony
1982
(I'm sort of weird about Piers Anthony, so any review videos coming out of this many not be informative, but they might be utter train wrecks. If you go in for that sort of thing...)

I have closed my comments going forward because while I enjoy making videos, I find it difficult to communicate by text. This isn't a criticism of the many warm and welcoming interactions I've had with people on BookTube (this tiny corner of YouTube). I find social interactions very taxing, especially the tricky back and forth via text. Sorry if you wanted to leave a comment, but this is how I get to be on social media (by not being particularly social).
