Hi! My name is Leonie and I am a 23 year old girl who loves talking about books! From YA to non-fiction to classics, I read it all (although fantasy will always be my fave). I live in the Netherlands and go to university, but make booktube videos in my spare time :)

About doing stuff every day and hoping to not stop: first, i'm not good at doing that. I distract myself a lot. But when i did last year's inktober and I missed a day (happened three times) I knew that i just had to do two drawings the day after. Yes, i "failed", but i also knew how to "pardon" myself. And how to go back on track! Which is super important.

February 15, 2021- It's snowing here in central/south Texas, which is a rarity for us. There are 6 inches of snow (12 in some places) and it's the fluffy kind unlike the icy/packing kind that we usually get- if we even get snow.

The snow is so pretty! Where I live it never snows :) AHHH I am SO excited because I am finally going to go to a bookstore AND a library! It has been SO SO long since I last went to a bookstore, so I am bubbling with excitement right now! And believe it or not, I have never been to a proper library! Crazy, I know! But the thing is, I don’t really have libraries where I live, so going to one isn’t very easy.

Sprouts are a lot cheaper if you grow them yourself! It's super easy! You can get the seeds at health food stores (ekoplaza?). I can really relate to the creative slump. And I'm in a reading slump on top of it atm. The snow on my roof insulated the shit out of my flat and it was so warm omg it was amazing. I think it's gone from my roof though, it has been slowly melting for the past couple of days.

I started off really well, but then that fun time of the month hit and that ruined everything (doesn't it always 😭). I've now picked it up again after two weeks of not doing it and it immediately feels wonderful again, so I'm going to really try and stick with it now! :) It's such a nice way to care for your body and mind in this weird time.

11:20-11:25 felt that. Also, in these videos it always looks like that you have stuff figured out in your life and that, in general, you have no problems to DO the stuff that you need to do in time, so it's almost strange to hear that you sometimes struggle with this feelings of failure.s I should probably at least write down again every time I do stuff, so i can keep track of that and see that i'm, too, not a failure.

Hello Leonie, totally get what you mean by that "entry level feminism" literature, I myself struggled a lot to find books talking about more radical ideas and if you're still interested then I think you should check out "Thick" by Tressie McMillan Cottom. It's a short book but very analytical and , hm, intellectual? Idk how to say that without sounding like a douche bc english is not my first language but what I mean is, it requires a lot more from its reader than pop culture feminism works that dominate the sphere. It focuses on issues that are not rly talked about widely but are absolutely necessary to understand & address. I also learned a lot from "Hood Feminism - notes from the women the movement forgot" by Mikki Kendall. Not seeing this book around much which is a shame. "Wayward Lives" by Saidiya Hartman is also worth checking out.

I wonder if you've checked out Andi Zeisler's We Were Feminists Once. It's a really good critique about the shallowness and danger of pop feminism, and it's one of the best books about feminism I read! I'd say it's somewhere between introductory and 'deeper' books. It's fairly easy to delve in because it's so relevant to our everyday experience with feminism, but there's definitely a lot more to take in than the light essay/memoir-ish feminist nonfictions.
