i don’t think i’ve ever heard your voice before, it’s so beautiful (in the beginning ad)! thanks for the calming vlog, it’s a great way to wind down after my first day of midterms!
aww thank you so much!! 🥹 i get super shy showing my voice on here but i kinda want to do it more often in my future videos hehe 🥰 i’m so glad you enjoyed the video! all the best in your midterms 🤍🤍
agree SOO much! Please consider doing some videos with voiceover so we can appreciate 100% of the visual content~ I love your videos, thanks for the inspo!
Agreed! So beautiful!
I read Haruki Murakami’s After Dark and Holly Jackson (Five Survive, and now just starting A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder) based entirely on your recommendations, and I’m so glad you’ve introduced me to these authors! Thanks for sharing your book thoughts and these cozy snippets of your life. 😊 I hope your new year is off to a beautiful start!
ahhh that makes me so happy!!! i hope you’ll continue to enjoy these authors’ work 🥹🤍 thank YOU for the amazing support 😭✨ the new year has been amazing so far, i hope you’re off to a great start too!
Hi Cath, Happy New Year!! Thank you for such a lovely vlog. I love going to Boffins, the fragrance as soon as you enter is so calming. Is there a Daiso in Perth? I didn't know that.
Anyone else re watch all of these???? Just had a binge day and you are the only thing I watched! My ten year old even loves watching you! We love books in our house!!!!
Always a pleasure to watch ❤
thank you so much! 🥰
The second i saw this video pop up while I was at work I saved it to watch later. Got home and just watched it. I love everything about your videos Cath. They're real, down to earth, cozy and remind us to look at for all the quiet moments of magic. Thanks to you, I've annotated 2 books now and I've started a bit of a sticker collection as I've decided to start decorating my journal... its so peaceful to pick out stickers and paper and is again, a quiet moment of magic. Thank you for the inspiration ❤❤
thank you so much dearest ashleigh 🤍 your support means more than you know it. i’m so happy you continue to enjoy the cozy videos! it makes me a little emotional to know that i’ve inspired in ways more than one :) i’m glad you’re enjoying annotating and sticker collecting + journaling 🥰 you are very welcome 🤍🤍
@@cupsandthoughts truly, your videos bring me deep rooted joy 🥲❤
I love how cozy and calm your videos are. Seeing how lovely your books look are you annotate them is inspirational, can't wait for you to share your guide to annotating so that I can better understand :)
awww thank you for the incredible support! i’m excited to share the guide soon 🥰
What can be better than a good book? Well, if you’re a book lover like myself - not much. For ebooks, Immersive Translate can help you translate the book with zero fuss. There’s also a cool feature where you can get accurate translations of the manga you’re currently reading. These are all only some of the many of the useful features of this plugin.
This video made me so happy, relaxed, and inspired. Thank you, Cath, your videos are absolute perfection ❤ I hope you are feeling better now. No need to be sorry, I appreciate all your videos, please take care.
oh i’m so happy to hear that! you are very welcome lovely, thank you for always supporting me and my videos 🥺😭🤍✨ i am feeling much better now and ready to create more cozy videos hehe :)

thank you so much, it means a lot to me knowing that you enjoy the content despite it being mundane and nothing exciting 🥺🥺 i truly do love sharing the little moments and am so glad you can feel the same way 🤍 it is my pleasure to keep sharing, thank you for the support 😭🤍

Leia has such a sweet baby meow, she sounds just like my little void 🐈⬛💜
it’s the sweeeetest!! she never meowed when we first got her, and now she’s constantly luring us with her baby meows whenever she’s hungry 🥹 your void must’ve been just as cute 😭✨
@@cupsandthoughts My void didn't meow much when I got her either. She's not very chatty but loves to make cute little meeps and meows every now and then. Aww Leia is so smart!
Love your videos, always relaxing and friendly 😊
so happy to hear that!! thank you 🥹🤍
Ahhh thank you for another wonderful video! Wishing you a happy new year, and good health!

Will you be opening back up your Etsy shop? I just stumbled across your channel recently and am obsessed. I’ve been binge watching them all. They’re so good! So cozy ❤️
hi lovely!! i don’t have any plans to open it up any time soon, but that’s not to say it’s closed forever :) i’ll definitely make an announcement on here and instagram if i were opening it back up again 🤍 thanks for the support on my shop and videos 🥹🥹
YOU ARE SO LUCKYYY. Seeing Bardugo's book made me want to cry, it's beautiful!
i feel so grateful!!! 🥹🥹 it’s so gorgeous!
Your videos bring me so much joy - thank you for sharing them with us, Cath!
you are very welcome!!! i’m so happy they bring you lots of joy and cozy vibes 🥰🥰🥰
Have been binging your videos all day. Love Hilda too as lot's of other cosy cartoony picks!
The decorative sheets that you were talking about are actually stickers! They're called hand held stickers and yes, you cut the yourself with scissors and then you can peel it if from it's paper and it will stick like normal stickers! I bought one thinking it was just normal stickers but it's works just fine!
i might go back there and grab some. the designs were all soooo cute 🥹🤍 thank you so much!
This is exactly the video I needed to relax after starting my master program. Perfect way to wind down after so much reading. Thank you as always for the lovely videos and how much time you put into them. I always appreciate each one ❤❤ Wishing you well! (I am honestly so curious about the new Leigh Bardugo book, excited to get to it this year for sure. And that copy you received is beautiful~)
As for some fav books of '23 I got: "Six of Crows" "Furies of Calderon" "The Shadow the gods" and "Yumi and the Nightmare Painter" Only one of which I've begun to annotate on a slow re-read. What are some books you're looking forward to reading this year?
ahhh what an exciting new chapter! i hope you’re enjoying it so far 🥰 it is my pleasure, i’m so happy you’re enjoying the videos 🤍🥺 i’m so excited to dive into it! i’m waiting until it’s autumn again here so i can snuggle up with the gothic vibes hehe ✨
six of crows is one of my favorites!! i do need to check out the other titles you mentioned 😍 i hope you’re enjoying annotating! apart from “The Familiar”, i’m really looking forward to some 2024 releases like “A Tempest of Blood and Tea”, “The Reappearance of Rachel Price”, and “Bride”. i also really want to finally read Hayao Miyazaki’s books! :)
@@cupsandthoughts it's certainly been a journey so far! Only a few weeks in and there's already so much to do. Your videos are always so wonderful; they're a perfect form of escapism for me. Smart to wait! I plan on reading it when the back-order at my library allows which . . . who knows when 🤣
Oh, those four made it onto my fav list, I had a great time reading them. Hope you like them if you decide to try them. I actually have "A Tempest of Blood and Tea'" on my tbr! The cover is so pretty and the summary sounds intriguing, for sure. Good luck on the reading!
the older sis seems so nurturing, love her for it
Ive been busy, with Playing Palia on my switch i finally step away. To finally look at ypur video, I was super suprise to hear your voice on your video, calm, lovely, smooth, brave ❤❤❤ Thank You for sharing how you go to work.

Dear Cath, Happy New Year! What a great long vlog that was.
Thanks to you, A semi-definitive list of worst nightmares was my last book of 2023, and I really liked it. I gave The angel game from Carlos Ruiz Zafron to my husband for Christmas and I can hear him giggle from time to time : he thoroughly enjoys it!
So happy your new website is on, I look forward to your reviews. So thank you for (re)connecting people with reading real books and enjoying simple pleasures in life! I wish you a wonderful year!
hello severine, happy new year! i’m glad you like the vlog :) i’m so happy you enjoyed a semi-definitive list of worst nightmares! haha zafón’s books are a huge treat, i’m glad your husband is enjoying them ✨ thank you for the support on my blog! i’m excited to get back to blogging :’) have an amazing year ahead!

Hi Cath! I have enjoyed so much this video! something about taking us with you to work and following your morning routine is so satisfying to me😊 I adore your little cat❤ I would love to adopt one if it wasn’t for my allergies… meanwile I read books about cats hahaha
Talking about books, I almost jumped from hapiness when you showed your favourites of 2023. I just looooove to see other people best reads. Anne and Carrie Soto were also two of my favourites this year! I also loved A men called Ove, Wonder, The Perks of Being a Wallflower and The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry.
I’m happy I found your channel this year! Hope you have a wonderful year ahead, Cath😊
hi maría! awww i’m so happy you enjoyed it 🥰 unfortunately i’ve come to realise that i’m allergic to shorthaired cats too, so i can’t normally go near them :( i hope you’ll be able to adopt a kitty in the future though, they’re amazing little companions 🤍
haha i’m glad you liked the favorites feature!! carrie and anne were sooo amazing weren’t they, i love character driven novels so much 🥰🥰 i so loved the storied life of a.j. fikry. it has my whole heart 😭🤍
thank you so incredibly much for the support this whole time, maría 🥺 i hope you have a wonderful year ahead too!
assistir seus vídeos já virou rotina para mim 💚
you are so kind, thank you 🤍🤍🤍
Luv the pokemon theme intro
I need to stop watching your videos because like 20 books on my TBR list are from you, haha.
My favourite book from 2023 is One good thing by Alexandra Potter (I believe, not sure on the first name). I think you'd LOVE it! It is about a middle aged lady from London who finds out her husband cheated with a young pretty girl, and she does the classic "divorce - leaving work - moving" thing. She moves into a quiant little English village (cobble stone cottages, nature, walks, LOTS of tea and biscuits) where she meets the different people that live there, finds out their stories and befriends them all, forming a community that helps each other through hard times. There's a bit of romance too. Overall it was a very easy, light-hearted but also emotional (at times) read. It's one of those books where "nothing much happens" as I like to say, the plot isn't overly fast-paced and full of twists and turns, just a lady making a new home and figuring things out. I love the message the book carries a lot.
Plus: there's is a dog, and it's a big part of the book, which is always great :)
hahaha a growing tbr is healthy for a bookworm 😂🤍 that seriously sounds sooo wonderful, and totally what i normally enjoy reading about! i love books where nothing much happens but you follow the character everywhere and learn so much about their story 🥰 haha love the dog part 🥹 thank you for the recommendation!! i’ll try to look for it 😍
I love this channel
Omg you’re in Australia! I never realised!
Great video. 🙂 I just read Fourth Wing and loved it and i am looking forward to reading Iron Flame. Loved how excited you got for the Leigh Bardugo book. 📚
thank you so much 🥰 me too! i hear it’s amazing hehe. ahh i couldn’t contain the excitement 😂🤍
I had the same reaction about Hilda's new season :D
it’s soooo exciting!!! 😭🤍✨
best vlog yet Cath!
thank you 😭✨
Loved this so much! So interesting your favorite books of the year! Mine was probably Klara & the Sun by Ishiguro. Eeek! The stationary shop! 😅😳😍
awww thank you!! 🤍🤍 glad you enjoyed klara & the sun 🥰 the shop had so many cute things, i had to contain myself 😂
i adore your channel, love from Brasil
thank youuu! ✨
Hi Cath! Happy New Year! Thank you so much for this vlog. I love going to Boffiins, the fragrance as soon as you enter is so calming. Is there a Daiso in Perth? I didn't know that.
hi liz! happy new year ✨ i totally agree it has the familiar sense of home 🤭🤍 thank you for the support! yup there is a daiso in westfield carousel! not sure if it’s anywhere else though :)
wow what a commute! I couldn't do that everyday, but I am glad it works out for you. Also I am reading Fourth Wing too and I though Hunger Games was crazy 😂
it gets tiring but you get used to it! :) i hope you’re enjoying it so far! it’s quite a book isn’t it 😅
I always love your video, so relaxing and heartwarming ❤ also we have the same taste of books 😆
aww thank youuu!! 🥹 hehe we’ve got great taste 😆🤍
Loved the vlog, Need to rewatch my Studio Ghilbi movies here soon
thank you!! rewatching ghibli films is my favorite pastime 😂🤍
@@cupsandthoughts , same here but I haven't seen them all yet and they are not on Netflix where I live but I do have a handful of them that I can re-watch
I am a new sub. Love your videos! They soothe me. Thank you.
hello and welcome!! i’m so happy to hear that 🥺🤍🤍
Where can I read your recommendations and reviews? I tried your blog site but it was a dead link.
The way I emailed the wrong publisher for an ARC of The Familiar 😂 I can't wait to read it when it comes out!
it can get quite confusing though can it!! 😂 hahaha. sooo excited too! 🥰
What an incredible, soothing video!! Such a perfect way to start my day, thank you so much 😊❤❤
aww i’m glad you enjoyed it!! you’re very welcome 🥰🤍
Such a cute video
thank you :’)
❤❤❤
❤
I just saw your website, are you from Indonesia?
Hi cath I love your vids :) just wanted to let you know that “Jewish” isn’t a language. I think you meant Hebrew although that phrase doesn’t seem to be fully in Hebrew (I’m not fluent so I can’t really say for sure). You’re so lucky to have gotten that arc tho!! I hope you enjoy the book
I’ve always assumed you’d have an Australian accent 🤭
fair assumption! ☺️ i have had people telling me i have an australian accent though, which is very funny to me 😆
@@cupsandthoughts You very definitely have an American accent, no trace of an Aussie one 😊
❤❤❤❤
So lovely to hear your voice ..why bother do a Q and A so we can see ans hear you
hi ! nice and cozy video ! jewish is not a language. I’m not super familiar with it but i’m guessing that’s ladino ?
hi! thank you sooo much :) and thanks for correcting me! you are completely right, after searching it up, it is ladino! it’s spoken by jews of sephardic decent, which makes a lot of sense since the book is set in the spanish golden age 😄
❤
