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 :)

The amount of times that I’ve considered purging everything I own and adopting the dark academia aesthetic happens too often….

"book of the month doesn't ship outside the US" But Leonie, how did you get it?! *cries in European shipping costs*

@anadewindt232 2 жыл бұрын

Maybe with a courier service? Thats how we get or packages in the Dominican Republic, where shipping is ridiculous and national mail cant be trusted

@niamhl6964 2 жыл бұрын

I'm sure it's not a case that they *can't* ship outside the US, just that they don't want to, probably because it costs too much. They shipped to Leonie as part of the sponsorship deal I would say

The way my ears pricked up when I heard bookshelf organizing. And a museum trip! Made me think of a book I think you'd like called 'Optic Nerve' by Maria Gainza, an argentinian art critic and writer. Thanks Leonie! 🖼️

I was getting some serious ASMR vibes from the sounds of the books being reorganized on the shelves (the sound of the books sliding, or being placed down with _clunks_ from the hardbacks).

I also was at a life-reset moment and that plus LEONIE posting an entire vlog about it it's the best thing ever!! I also was looking for aesthetic inspo to motivate me with my studies, and so happens that one of the assignments I have to do is for a Greek Plays class (perfect fit)

The avocado umbrella is cute. Just wanted to say that I’m a new subscriber and I enjoy your reading vlogs. It gets me inspired to read for fun myself. I was an English major in college and I think it might have caused me to stop reading for enjoyment. I’m slowly getting back to it though, and I think your channel is helping me with that. 😁

Those scenes by the canal are so quintessentially Dutch, but its always nice to see how they are just normal neighbourhoods to someone who lives there. Also Marcus Aurelius was even dealing with haters in his day too? Things haven't changed that much !
