how can he even be considered a booktuber, or even a good booktuber? to date he hasnt made a single video where he actually reviews a book. the closest he has come is writing a paragraph about a book in the description section of a video

The only ones worth watching are the old farts who sometimes give you an obscure book recommendation for some good historical fiction/biography.

Every male booktuber under the age of 40 is a cringey pseud/brainlet. Pic related is probably my favourite booktuber at the moment, and I like Alan Moreton too for recommendations. Worst male booktuber has to be that guy who reads fantasy and puts on a fake radio voice, and makes videos with a married woman like a cuck.

>Smegma

I literally had to google to find out what this shit is. Longest I have gone without showering is probably around a week, (after eye surgery) and I have never had the slightest bit of 'smegma'. I am going to conclude that this is a Jewish meme, disseminated to help you COPE with having the end of your cock cut off for Israel like a good little goy.

the video has 1:30 of meme and then he says he hasn't read the book (as a joke?), and then he goes through wiki info, describing the book, and then he reframes all of that and says he doesnt buy it. ill admit this is the closest he has ever gotten to a review in any video, but given how tenuous and elliptical this is im not really sure this magically makes him a booktuber. it would be calling pewdiepie a booktuber, or if an ASMR channel made a single book review and calling them a booktuber.

he 99% just memes, and then the aesthetic of a meme is tangentially related to a book in an entirely abstract way

Why is this not to your liking? What do you want? Someone who discusses basic literature that everyone read in high school? Ideally, what do you want?
