In this video, I respond to two video topics that have been going around lately. The first is The Booktuber Habits tag, which was created by Mike @Bibliophile-Reads. I was tagged on this video by Kelly @booksimnotreading and by Alan @AlansReads. I'll link their videos below.

The other topic is one that I saw on Nicky's channel @MyMessyBookshelf. Nicky was inspired to make a video about her booktube experiences, and she called it "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of BookTube." Nicky was inspired by two videos that she saw in which booktubers were talking about their experiences on BookTube. One was Farrah@bookstalgic, and the other was Melissa @meliinthemargins. I will try to link all of the videos below.

First, here are the prompts to Mike's tag, The BookTuber Habits Tag:
1. Film in batches, or one video at a time!
2. Scripted, outlined, or chaotic filming?
3. How long you actually spend filming?
4. You’re editing pet peeve?
5. Thumbnail struggle, or title struggle?
6. Do stats influence your reading choices?
7. Most re-filmed video ever?
8. Your comfort video format?


Here are links to Mike's, Kelly's, and Alan's videos on this tag:
