Katie Reads is such a fun channel to stumble upon! I first found her on YouTube, where she does these cozy book reviews with this warm, conversational vibe—like chatting with a friend about your latest library haul. Her taste leans toward fantasy and YA, but she’s got this knack for picking hidden gems that aren’t all over BookTok. I love how she films with stacks of books around her and sometimes even her cat makes a cameo.
She’s also on Instagram, but honestly, her YouTube content feels more immersive. Over there, she shares quick aesthetic snaps of her current reads or bookstore visits, but it’s the long-form discussions where she really shines. If you’re into ’Shadow and Bone’ or ’The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue’, her deep dives are perfect for lazy weekend watching.
