![The Role of the Booktuber Tag
Hi all. This tag is called The Role of the Booktuber Tag. It was created by Allison @AllisonAnnotated
https://youtu.be/FBc3uJT_w2Q?si=JzQhHL90lrbZ4gpd
I was tagged by: Suey @sueysbookbanter
The prompts are:
Questions:
1. How do you view your role as a booktuber? [Examples might be as a critic, a curator, an influencer, an entertainer, an educator, etc.]
2. Do you have any educational background in literature or literary criticism, either formal or self-directed? And [if you are comfortable sharing] do you have any other education or professional experience that you bring to bear on your reviews?
3. Do you typically do any research on either the book or the author before you review a book?
4. Do you focus your reviews more on the objective qualities of a book or more on your subjective opinions about it?
5. Have you ever received a free book or advanced reader copy from the author, and if so, did it have any impact on your ability to honestly review the book? (Or on how you felt about it?)
6. Do you review every book you read? Are there any reasons that you might read a book but choose not to review it?
7. How do you feel about the fact that many people now primarily consume book reviews by hobbyists on BookTube rather than professional critics? (What is lost; what is gained?)
I’ll tag:
