oh man. Need to go find proper booktubers, not influencers who read booksmost of what she says comes from goodreads or from booktubers who have reviewed the same book.
Off topic but I'd recommend Jen Campbell, if you aren't already watching her. She has some good recommendations and reviews.oh man. Need to go find proper booktubers, not influencers who read books
alot of them I find are all about the fantasy books and that’s not my kind of genre
Sh/ 26ish going on 27 I think because she took a gap yearJust watching an oldish vlog of hers. It still blows my mind that she's early 20s and owns a big house in London that she is renovating. Properly insane! Zack really lucked out didn't he
all about privileged and working in an industry which isn’t I know, its just so crazy comparing that life, couldn't be any further from most people's reality. Similar to Fleur who was born and married into a lotttaa money. And although her or Jess aren't exactly relatable, they seem a lot less try hard and less braggy than most influencers.Sh/ 26ish going on 27 I think because she took a gap year
regulated for salaries etc
In all the years I’ve followed Jess, I don’t know who she is
In all the years I’ve followed Jess, I don’t know who she is
I felt I did when she was in uni, but she lost her way when she went to kings.
It felt like she did her masters to tick a box,
did YouTube to tick a box, but there was no passion for vlogging anymore.
She doesn’t even seem excited about her own house.
If I had only started following her in the last 2 years I’d struggle to find anything about her that’s worth watching.
I loved the way she dressed, the jewellery and piercings might not be my style but it was “her”
Then she cut her hair to copy another influencer, did that merchandise drop with Ana and sophdoesnails and saffron barker.
She’s sold out, but she’s also to lazy to have sold out completely.
zack quitting his job sums them both up as a couple. There is no drive at all.
I don’t know where she’ll be in ten years time. It’s sad really.
I'm still baffled about Zack quitting his job to work for her. She doesn't work enough to justify it. I can understand her taking a break now if she wanted to because of her mum, but she's not been working much for ages now even before her mum got sick.In all the years I’ve followed Jess, I don’t know who she is

The only reason I find her more tolerable is because she has no hustle, she doesn’t need to climb to the top, she doesn’t need to force affiliates and spons on people, if she started doing ASOS, PLT, Zara hauls and brand work she’s be no different to them, and I view her in the same way.
Hahah
he’s definitely a talented photographer and videographer... her old lookbooks were so well done thanks to him. I’m also baffled that he quit his chef job to work for her though. What does he do all day?! Editing her 1 video a month and few pics can’t take that long.This is so true! I said a similar thing on the Fleur thread. I guess for Jess if influencer work dried up it wouldn't really affect her and she doesn't need to beg for stuff. Watching vlogs from people that wealthy just blows my mind. I can't even imagine not having to worry about money.The only reason I find her more tolerable is because she has no hustle, she doesn’t need to climb to the top, she doesn’t need to force affiliates and spons on people, if she started doing ASOS, PLT, Zara hauls and brand work she’s be no different to them, and I view her in the same way.
If she wasn’t in such a privileged position she would need to take that work but she’s lucky that she doesn’t need it.
But she does force affiliates and spons. She only posts instagrams or videos if she has an ad or something to promote. All her vlogs seem to have a little AD segment that isn't mentioned in the title. For years she's been doing dedicated UO and Topshop lookbooks etc. Back then I actually quite enjoyed them because she did put the effort in to make nice lookbooks (plus they were brands she already loved). Alongside them she had her regular vlogs and other content so it was alright. But now every video is a bare minerals and it's just the same look over and over again. And she isn't gonna do a lookbook unless the clothes are gifted.The only reason I find her more tolerable is because she has no hustle, she doesn’t need to climb to the top, she doesn’t need to force affiliates and spons on people, if she started doing ASOS, PLT, Zara hauls and brand work she’s be no different to them, and I view her in the same way.
