    I'm not a big audiobook person, but whenever someone pontificates about the medium's inferiority, I'm like...bro. How do you think those Ancient Greeks communicated their myths? Heard of the Odyssey? The Illiad? Two of the major foundational texts of the western literary canon? They were written down long after their creation. Also, the poor. Heard of them? Widespread literacy is a pretty modern development. Oral storytelling, and thus, the auditory consumption of those stories, predates the written word and transcends class. It is, in many ways, the superior medium.

    I’ve literally never commented on any CZcams video ever before, but I just had to say that this is easily and instantly my favourite video of yours you’ve ever made. The absolute embodiment of “I really don’t give a fuck” in this video is just so good. This channel absolutely IS the girls getting together for a sleepover and a women’s show about getting a makeover. I’ve been watching your channel for years at this point-I’m one of those quiet but eager lurkers-and I wanted to also take this opportunity to say thank you for all the happiness and fun you’ve given us all over the years, and this video seemed like the perfect time to do that! 😊

    So, I'm a literature academic and can definitely attest that there are lit bros who do indeed think that Proust and Joyce are the ONLY two authors worth reading and are definitely much more edifying than whatever 200 other books, classics or otherwise, you are reading. And they are exactly as exhausting as they sound.

    Accepting audiobooks as “real reading” absolutely changed my relationship to classics. Before 1920s, most books were expensive and served as form of group entertainment. People would often gather as someone or a group would read aloud. Popular authors aiming for a middle class or higher “educated” demographic knew this and structured their stories so they flowed well for listening.
    Dubliners is a totally different book read out loud. There’s a version with a handful of narrators reading a few stories each (like would happen in a family or group of friends) and it is SO GOOD. :)

    I totally agree with what you said about why someone seeks out certain booktube people. I do not have the same reading tastes as you at all but I love how you talk about books and how you're pretty much game for any weird book you stumble across. I watch two other booktube channels more for their content because I have a similar reading taste to them but one of them I only watch videos about the books he's talking about; I never watch videos that may venture outside of talking about books. But for your videos, I just like hearing you explain why you like and dislike books and also how Liam's doing and when you're getting your hair done and the walks/bike rides you go on and basicically just the parts of your life you like to share with us.

    The audiobook 'debate' is so silly. Like yes we know that listening is not the act of reading, but what do they want us to say 'consumed'? Have you consumed this book? In what way? Which sense did you use? It's so silly. But I always notice I will correct myself and say I read-listened to that book, because people get so defensive about it.
    I am a big audiobook listener. I have adhd and suspect I have dyslexia, reading has always been difficult and because I'm so slow reading books my Hyperactive brain gets bored. It's like I'm wading through quick sand, and I lose the plot. But the thing is, I love books. So now I LISTEN to about 100 books a year. Before it would be one. I listen to books on 2 - 3.5x speed while I work, to keep myself focused.
    We all have different processing speeds, and different factors that account for our understanding and enjoyment of a reading experience. I also have aphantasia, so while some people are imagining vivid worlds, I'm starting at words on a page that my brain doesn't want to process.
    The discourse obviously stems from people associating books with merit inteligance and notoriety. That is why people are so quick to say classics are superior, and if you read too many you aren't getting enough out of your books. Reading a book used to make some people feel supiorir and now they feel like people are cheating and using a short cut.
    If I say I've read/listened to 100 books a year, I'm not braging, I'm not telling you I'm smarter and more accomplished. I'm saying I've experienced 100 stories. Hundreds of characters and worlds.
    Most of what I read isn't some classic that I can reference to show superiority over anyone, it's trashy romcoms, raven boys and thrillers.. and I love that for me. On the other hand, I have listened to classics. If I didn't use audiobooks, I would have never read pride and prejudice, or the odyssey or 1984. But now I have, and I can recommend them.
    So many people identify as people who don't read, or hate reading, but how many of them would love literature if they tried an audiobook? My friend used to think it was crazy I listened to books at 3x speed. And then he tried an audiobook, and he now listens to romance at 3x speed.
    I know there is the same superiority around movies, which movies are worth notoriety and which are silly. But it's all just content, it's all stories, and knowledge and new perspectives.
    I don't care if someone watches a show one episode a week, or marathons it in a weekend.. we can still discuss and get excited about it. We have still experienced the same story.
    So to the people who have physically read no more than 12 highbrow classics a year and look down on anyone who reads differently from you.. I encourage you to do 3 things:
    #1 pick up some non fiction books on disabilities and ablism.
    #2 pick up the modern classic, The Giver, and pay attention to the message about gatekeeping information, history, experiences, and individuality.
    #3 Go and watch the video Jack Edward's did called 'modern books that will be "classics" in the future'. Just because a book is old, does not make it more important than modern books. Modern books are a very important reflection on current societal issues and commentary. Something like the hunger games, though it's a young adult series in a fictional world, it perfectly convays important commentary about our world to readers of all ages in an easily consumable way. Important messages don't have to be old, eliquent or decoded to be valid and meaningful. One day, these modern books that you turn your nose up at, will join the classics which you covate.

      Also I love acting like we’re besties and seeing you do all your stuff like getting smoothies and taking makeup off. I also think Ashley Fisher is your stalker not your hater. Seems a lil obsessed.

    by the way i love how funny you are, just doing silly little things like putting googly eyes on covers, totally indulging in the unserious tone (and kinda interacting with hate comments in that way)

    okay im about to sound very ass-kissy but these comments are ridiculous. first of all, you're clearly gorgeous. second of all, i dont even have the same taste in books as you and yet can sit and listen to you talk forever because i appreciate YOU and what YOU bring to "booktube" that's different than others i watch in this space. you are well-spoken (the cussing comment is wild to me cuz i feel like i rarely hear you swear and when you do its always necessary emphasis or quoting something), funny, and just radiate good vibes like someone i would want to hang out with and shoot the shit. i love this video concept. keep doing you!

    I love how creative you are with your content. If your channel was only about reading, it would be so boring! I love how you give us bite-size pieces into your life and are genuine.

    The fact that you didn't even know that you had multiple comments from the same person speaks volumes about how seriously you take these. I love it

    People hating audiobooks is not only ableist but also racist as a way of dismissing the value of audio storytelling aka the main form of storytelling in so many non-Western cultures for thousands of years (and in the West for a long time, too).

  • @thisisnancybot
    @thisisnancybot Před měsícem +4

    I like the fact that you gave Dubliners a genuine read. I feel like a lot of these literature snobs end up ruining classics for folks who might otherwise enjoy them. But lets be honest, they don't actually care about recommending good books to people. They just want to feel superior.

    Kayla out here unbothered & using hate for content. Literal definition of "im gonna make my bag either way" 😂😂
    The way we were so off in the sprints trying to guess what this vlog was 😂😂

    I got a hate email once saying I'm old, lazy and ugly and that's why I can't get a date. I laughed because it was so funny to me that someone took the time to actually email me to tell me that, lol. Great video! I can't believe people actually said those things!

    okay i took a whole class on joyce in college & dubliners was his only book i liked (he didn’t write many). he’s fun to pick apart in conference, but his writing is absolutely not for me enjoyment-wise. even the professor, who specializes in joyce, said joyce’s last book (finnegan’s wake) isn’t worth reading. funnily enough though, if joyce wrote any book meant to be read aloud, it’s that one. finnegan’s wake pretty much only sounds like it makes any kind of sense if you listen to clips of joyce himself reading it aloud

    30:21 popping in to say we love you so much Kayla!!! I don’t even know how many years ago I followed you but you have consistently been my comfort creator for the entirety of that time (in a non-escapist, actively engaged way!)
    there is a reason you barely get any hate comments despite having a large platform on the internet, and I think all of us here know what it is ☺️🧡

    It's the unhinged manner in which you put the yaaaasified googly eyes on your books, for me. Never change, Kayla ❤ (Also, I wonder what someone would think if you donated a book with googly eyes and they picked it out... 😂)

    Well, we have learned that, Kayla, you have beautiful Mossy Bench eyes, Ashley is thirsty, that people don’t understand that lessons can be learned just as well from modern books as they can be from classics, and cussing is an efficient fucking form of communication. Loved the video, as always - especially the catching-up-with-a-friend-feeling parts - and the googly eyed books was everything.
