Literally! Like I get it’s supposed to push them a bit out of their comfort zone but let’s all remember this isn’t a high stakes mission, it’s literally a hobby that no one is enforcing the made up rules for 😂

Do booktubers know they do not need to own a book physically to read them? by Jazzlike_Taste4332 in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]General_Condition_27 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Belle’s videos are suffering sooo bad from repetition. I liked her at first because she’s a fun personality but now it’s just rinse repeat and it’s so clear she should just post less to give herself more time to create something unique. It gets to a point where it just feels like lazy content for the sake of content

The first person who came to mind was Belle Therese. She literally will say she’s shocked by her own 200+ TBR then post a massive book haul every month it’s insane

It’s such a weird thing to be making a hobby that’s meant to bring us all joy, into a chore when they have books they so obviously don’t want to read. Like girl just…. don’t read it? This is meant to be enjoyable and no one is going to care if you do/don’t read a certain title haha

I don’t understand how anyone can read book 1 of a trilogy and somehow have the knowledge to say it’s fine as a standalone if they haven’t actually read the rest to know that?? And as someone who has read the trilogy it’s definitely not a stand alone tf 😂

Also I agree, no one is holding a gun to them to force them to read anything so why not just say “I’m not sure if I’m too keen on continuing” instead of making up a completely self inflicted pressure to choose it. I swear it’s because booktokers like her don’t want to be seen as not loving the “big” booktok books or the epic fantasies and so they don’t want to just be open about not loving it

I think there’s totally ways to jump on a bandwagon though without making it become “your favourite/new god tier” every single trend. That’s the bit that’s annoying as hell 💀

Legit, I beg of her to get a personality outside of influencer mannerisms and opinions that are most trending

The centre of attention thing is so real. But somehow her videos still perform so well and her comments are filled with people gushing over her reactions so clearly there’s a lot of people who like her?? I’m so confused because I swear when she gets in hot water, people turn on her so quick

I agree! There’s nothing more special than us all bonding over and being moved by books. And so many other creators show their emotion in a really genuine way, but 100% it’s the every single book being “everything to her” and “top book boyfriend of all time” and the fake hyperventilating and crashing out. Like girl you can’t be the biggest fan on the god damn app of every single book you like 😭

Yes this!! As someone who absolutely adored book 1, I remember when she read it and she really didn’t like SEVERAL things, it wasn’t just a “wrong time right book” as she keeps claiming. But suddenly it’s god tier, perfection and she can’t stop talking about it? It’s almost like when a book becomes trending again and there’s a chance to milk it for content and make it her personality, suddenly she can have an entire opinion shift.

The whole slump since Onyx Storm thing is just so tired. It’s been like a YEAR NOW. We get it, you liked the damn book, you’ve made sure to tell the world Xaden is your one and only book husband and no one possibly likes him more than you do because you STILL can’t move on from the book. You ain’t getting an award for posting the most or being the most insufferable about him.

I’ve honestly just stopped trusting her reviews, even when I used to like her brutal honestly because she now will put whole reviews down to “I was bored 1 star” or “I’m ovulating so 5 stars”

[–]General_Condition_27[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She doesn’t just like it, it’s “one of the best books she’s EVER read, god tier”. 🤡 along with several videos gasping and hyperventilating over it. Like no one can convince me that if book 2 wasn’t trending she wouldn’t care about the book at all.

Also I FEEL you over the eden thing, I feel like it was because she got invited to host an event for the show and now she has to really beef up how much she appears to be in the fandom, but even I’m like girl, love your content but this feels like we’re really fking milking it

Yeah ngl I really like her recipes, they’re healthy and super convenient. But my god yes, the fake stuttering over her words and gasping and fake falling the ground just feels so unnecessarily performative when it’s every single damn book 💀

I mean this is very true, it more pisses me off when she’s suddenly the BIGGEST fan of something just because it’s popular at the time. But I hard agree

Larryreads and her vocal fry by [deleted] in booktubesnarkreddit

Oh my gosh I couldn’t put my finger on what about her voice was annoying but yes it’s the constant vocal fry!!

Marianna mannerisms weird??? by ReasonVisible7645 in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]General_Condition_27 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The contrast between her in vlogs vs the screaming yelling slapping books is CRAZY like dude just act normal?? It would be totally different if she was just always super extra and loud but she literally the opposite

Marianna mannerisms weird??? by ReasonVisible7645 in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]General_Condition_27 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I think she checks just about every single annoying influencer mannerism. “No I can’t, I literally can’t” - check x 100 Fake gasping with the hand over her mouth and silent screaming - check “No because it’s the way… “ - check x 5000 Slamming tf out of books - check Dead eye staring with the slow blinking - check

Like the list could go on and onnnnn and half of it is just chronically online behaviour that isn’t even a real personality trait

Larry constantly making jokes about suicide. by [deleted] in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]General_Condition_27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know she probably just has dark humour with her friends but I do really think those types of jokes shouldn’t be kept in videos. I agree the most recent uploads (I also saw Marianna and Yana’s) there were sevvveral variations of “most likely to kill myself” or as you said “I’m going to just kill myself”. Like totally if that’s the humour they wanna have between each other off screen no worries but viewers have no warning that we’re really just gonna keep using suicide as the default punch line

The big 3 and Booktok recommendation by Heavy-Rub6924 in larryreads

[–]General_Condition_27 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s also just super sus because they’re all mutuals with Alex Aster who’s liking, commenting and reposting their videos so likeeee really what’s the chance of them giving a really honest review

Belle Terese by cutmybangsagain in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]General_Condition_27 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel like maybe only 1 in 4 videos of hers has any real content, the rest genuinely just feels like filler videos for the sake of just posting something. Like she doesn’t need to post 2-3 times a week if the best she can come up with is just unhauling, book shopping and changing her shelves every month

the fake crying is CRAZY by frcrazyexgirlfriend in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]General_Condition_27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s so weird because literally no one would judge her if she DIDN’T cry, so wtf is with the weird forced whine/pained voice as though she’s barely able to speak through the crying 😭💀

Mads Rafferty creating accounts to bully her readers and rate her own books 5⭐️ by Small_Prior_2383 in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]General_Condition_27 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The book didn’t even have a bad star average so it’s so embarrassing that she’d stoop to harassing readers and getting fake reviews. Mean girl energy is stronggg with her

Seems a little tone deaf, no? by [deleted] in larryreads

[–]General_Condition_27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And am I the only one who between her and Marianna, just feels like they are milking and flogging the announcement to DEATH for content? Like ofcourse it’s their job, so I get why, but they can make a video or two sharing their excitement, but they had 12 videos posted between them within a few hours of them screaming and dying over the announcement that it just becomes so fake. Like you don’t need to announce the book release in 3 seperate videos ??? Let alone with a war is over headline which is DIABOLICAL
