“What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.”
-J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

First off, we have Haley Pham. Haley has become extremely popular over the course of the past year. She posts mostly vlogs about reading and her writing, but she also posts a series of "In my 20's Diaries" that you should check out as well!
Haley has lots of different videos on her page about reading, including her favorite books from the year, reading vlogs, challenges, and book reviews. On her channel, she mostly talks about romance books, especially by authors like Emily Henry and Mhairi McFarlane. She explains the books she's read very well, too, so it's super easy to understand her thoughts and recommendations. If you love her videos and the books she reads, you should check out her Debut Novel, "Just Friends," that came out in late 2025. Haley has more of a fast-paced, old YouTube kind of vibe to her.

Keyorie Ellana
Keyorie Ellana reads a little bit of everything, although fantasy is her favorite. She posts book hauls, recommendations, and other bookish content, but she also posts non-bookish content like how to become a content creator, get ready with me's, and even advice talks. She has a bit of everything for everyone.
She is super funny, relatable, and has a soft vibe to her channel, which I love. Keyorie is one of my personal favorite channels, so if you want to sit back, relax, and get some good book recs, I definitely think you should check out Keyorie's channel.
Mina Reads
Mina Reads is another one of my personal favorite channels. She posts vlogs, book hauls, challenges, day in the lives, and recommendations. She reads a lot of different books, so you are bound to like something she recommends. She is also super funny and sweet, and has a soft glow to her.
Amber Burns
Amber Burns has a super calm and soothing voice that I love. She does lots of vlogs about different things, but most of her vlogs include, in some way, reading. She does book hauls and even journaling content! Amber's channel is super cozy and perfect for when you need to relax and clear your mind.
Victoria Villanueva
Last but not least is my personal favorite booktuber ever, Victoria Villanueva! She goes by "Torixvillanueva" on all her platforms (Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok). I love all her content.
Victoria posts vlogs, book recs, challenges, etc. But she is so relatable, she is so fun to watch. She reads a bunch of different books, so you will most definitely find something to relate to her with. I just love her channel so much, I will never stop recommending her.
I hope you end up checking out at least one of these channels and maybe even find a new favorite! Or if you're a newbie to Booktube, I hope these gave you a great place to start.
“If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all.”
