Hi, are you gonna to be healthy?

I started watching your videos before I even began my application for uni, and now I'm going into my 2nd year at Exeter. Its just so much fun finally recognising the streets and shops around Exeter in your vlogs 😂

My channel ruby has some goodies , I'm completed and doing finish work on my web content, hope your doing great ruby!

I can literally smell the books :D

Could you make a podcast recommendation video! I would really love to get some recommendations from you :)

Hi Ruby
How many books do you read too yourself and for your course and for pleaser. As I want to be Steiner Teacher. Fiona Osborn

I can't read in a car anymore so admire you for editing a video and doing all those notes. I used to read in the car on the way to Scotland but not any more. Makes me feel funny. If we stop at a Service station i will read while my Parents have a drink but then i wait till we get to my Sister's.

way to go with the art book, kudos from art field a and fellow artist.

Please can l get they reading books

reading for pleasure during term time?.....I wasn't even able to read all the prescribed texts

I love your videos so much, they are so calming, sweet and motivating at the same time. Thank you for sharing all this with us, you're such an inspiration, Ruby 🌟💛

❤️

Yes! Even though that’s part of what kindles are advertised for 😅

She looks the Anne from the move Anne with an e

how do you not burn out? the amount of work you do is astounding, especially in a single day

You're such a cutie! ❤

That book about Art History im so getting, especially as someone whose an art history major

Ruby, I just wondered, what are your plans after final year? Are you taking a PhD or a Master’s degree etc or are you going straight into work?

Please research Blackwells before purchasing from them...!!!!

love your passion for reading 💖

I ADORE the Scarlet Pimpernel. If you like it, the 1982 movie is fantastic.

As PhD student in comparative literature, I identify with the difficulty to find time to read for pleasure while everything else is happening (i.e. courses, exams, trying to think about a thesis topic, teaching....). Thanks for sharing all your tips, Ruby!

Edit: just teaching Emily Dickinson at the moment, and I love to hear from my undergrads (who are not literature students) that they see literature as a snapshot of history. If this is what they take away with them I am happy!

Have you read Virginia Woolf's letters? I'm looking at them for my English Lit Master's thesis and they are a JOY!

So jealous of the Emily Dickinson letter book, I've been wanting it for months!

It is so nice there!
check out my college vlogs on my channel as well :)

Beautiful books! It would be great if you could provide links to the books in the description.

that book on decadence.... i need

Thank You so much.

LOVEDDD this vlog! The books look amazing and i added a couple to my goodreads. You’re living my dream life ruby, museums, art, books. I study medicine and it’s so nice to be connected to the literary world in ways like your videos. Thank you.

What’s your Spotify? 🤍

⭐

Do a book review by historical periods! I am researching for a historical novel, and you read so many cool books about a specific period of history. I would love to watch it.

Would love to know what desk and chair you have.

Have you watched any of the television series Dickinison on Apple TV+?

Ruby, I'd like to see you talking about how you started your collection "Pumpkim". You're awesome <3

Reminder “The best plan is only good intentions unless it degenerates into work.”
Your smile is precious 🤍

If you like Virginia Woolf and reading letters, I highly recommend reading „Love letters-Vita Sackville and Virginia Woolf“. I really enjoyed reading those letters :))

How can u read that many of books 😀... Impressive... I got inspired and motivated by the way you read and decided to read two books in a month.

Loce your videos

I really admire your videos. I always wanted to a reader, but could never become one. Can you do a videos how to become a reader and enjoy reading at the same time?

“tactile” is one of the BEST descriptions I’ve heard of Madeline Miller’s prose! I absolutely love that 🌟🌟 & totally agree that her writing has a way of engaging all the senses while pulling at your heartstrings along the way :)

As a book nerd and classical philologist, I adore so much of your list and have added all the ones I haven't read to my TBR. I'm excited to see what you think of Circe as I genuinely think it outshines The Song of Achilles by leaps and bounds- which is saying something when The Song of Achilles is so good!

All the authors happened to be women. Coincident?

OH MY GOD ITS TODDS BARBARIC YAWP

Also if you're interested in paintings that have themes of death you should look into vanitas paintings , i did my gcse art project on them :)

can you do a video on poetry for beginners ? i want to get into it but don't know where to start
