He said awhile ago, he never uploads anything from where he’s currently staying, he only does it once he has left! He said he was only doing month long stints in places
That puts my mind at ease then, thank you! I don’t watch his videos religiously so I must’ve missed that one
Does that mean he’s on his 3rd rental since coming over here then? He’s certainly got more stamina for that kind of thing than I have!
right? like I feel like his sense of humor has been deteriorating ever since he graduated, like the "your jawline get's sharper, so if i don't look like phineas off of phineas and ferb, i'll sue you" is so random and not witty at all and the constant speaking in tiktok sounds too like... I'm not saying he can't do that but it comes off like he's trying so hard to be relatable but he just isn't
this has been a popular "joke" for a bit in bookish communities online, i feel like i remember a bunch of booktubers i watched in like 2014 make this joke and there was also a semi-viral (for the time, on tumblr) tumblr post that said the same thing, so while it certainly could be a dig at ruby, it could also just once again be him recycling 2013 internet jokes (or both!)
edit: just finished the video, do english speakers usually say dostoevsky like that or is he mispronouncing the name?

So a lot of people I’ve noticed have been commenting on his Instagram and YouTube that his products are quite pricy and they cant afford them and that his giveaways are just aimed at richer people which I tend to agree with what do you all think?

Shouldn't it be 'with all due respect'?
has anyone seen his Instagram stories
In fairness, the witcher premiere is the best I think I've ever seen him look. The style really suits him. He needs to move on from Harry styles as his influence. Jack looks stylish at the premiere where as he usually wears what's 'trendy', and the two things aren't always the same
As for those books, tbh at this point now if his fans are crazy enough to spend the money on pointless stuff the fair play to him. Not exactly environmentally friendly but

I completely agree especially as you could get those books second hand somewhere else for cheaper anyway!
Hahahaba omg I got a preview copy of that book he’s been paid to promote! I don’t even have like an Instagram I was just asked to review it to put on Amazon 
Omg 
I don’t know what it is about jake that just annoys me

Looking at the condition of every single book he “reads” he has a talent for never cracking a spine! 
This reading log is just GoodReads in paper form - like anyone actually needs that. These products are so cheap and remind me of the spiral planners we used to get at school. He really needs to move away from this Uni obsession and leave school children alone. After all he’s a 20-something grown man interacting with teenagers online.

That's exactly why I don't believe he reads all the books he talks about. The books always looks brand new and when he talks about them, he only tells you very basic things such as themes etc like he's read reviews somewhere.Looking at the condition of every single book he “reads” he has a talent for never cracking a spine!

He strikes me as someone who reads them online and then also has the physical books
I know for dune he had the audiobook and the physical copy so I assume he does that alot
Yeah, I could be completely wrong of course. It just always seemed odd is all.
Yeah I'd never take anything a youtuber says or does at face value. Based on how new the books always look and his vague reviews he either listens to audiobooks or just reads a few reviews online and cobbles together his thoughts based on that.
Absolutely. If you read some of the top reviews from Amazon/GoodReads it’s basically the same thing he says in his videos. Complete scammer.
I'm starting to think I'm maybe just too much of a old soul trapped in a young(ish) person's body because the way he talks makes it difficult for me to get through one of his videos.
I just watched his Adele video, and the way he says things like 'literally me...' thinking he's all chaotic and quirky, or makes one of his terrible puns really makes me cringe.
Maybe I'm just an old man before my time but I find listening to the way online personalities speak really hard to get through because they can never finish a thought without some rubbish joke or catchphrase.
Once again, the book he claimed to have read was in perfect condition with not a crease in sight.

No I'm with you completely, but I am older tbf. But I know quite a few friends jacks ages and they don't talk like that, not since they left uni etc. I think that's the problem, Jack hasn't evolved or grown since leaving uni, he is still stuck in this uni/youtube bubble and doesn't interact with a diverse range of people (like you would in the world of work)I'm starting to think I'm maybe just too much of a old soul trapped in a young(ish) person's body because the way he talks makes it difficult for me to get through one of his videos.
