Booktube Faves, Volume 2: Rincey Reads

Hello, biblios!

I'm back to give a bloggy shout-out to another one of my favorite Booktubers.

Rincey Reads is run by Rincey (duh) who you may also know from her work as a contributing editor at Book Riot. She's on their YouTube channel a lot, but her own channel is definitely worth following, too.


One of the main things I enjoy about Rincey's channel is that while she reads plenty of "big" and popular books, she also reads a lot of under-the-radar stuff, including nonfiction. If like me, you find yourself getting a little bored with the repetition that happens on Booktube, she will definitely provide a nice change of pace.

On a technical level, her videos are great — just the right length, really easy to watch and understand, lots of helpful info. From her work at Book Riot, she always has some great lists of upcoming releases, as well as good backlist recommendations.

But moreover, she's super sweet and charming, and she always makes me laugh a little. She seems like she'd be a great person to hang out with, even for an introvert like me. I appreciate the sensitivity she brings to discussion of serious topics, as well as the carefree moments of silliness that never fail to make me grin.

She brings a lot of diversity in books to the table, especially books by authors of color outside the United States, and offers some really wonderful and sharp insights into the need for and benefits of intersectionality in your reading life.

She also does a lot of readathons, if you're looking for some motivation to get into those!

You can quickly get to know her a little better by watching her two recent Q&A videos.

I think she ought to have ten times the subscribers that she does, so go click that subscribe button and give Rincey some bookternet love!
