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 :)

I would not mind vlogs about studying/thesis work. It is really interesting! So don't stress about not reading, we like your content!!!

Yes me too!
When you said that all you do is watch romcoms in your freetime and that you don‘t know how to read and make videos for your channel if you don‘t read I thought it would be fun if you maybe did a video about the movies you watched! I‘d love to see that :)

YES that sounds amazing!
barbie and the nutcracker is hands down one of the best christmas movies ever
I think you should not stress about not having time to read right now. Probably a good opportunity to branch out to newer content or just vlogs not focused on reading. Also, as a psychology grad I found the topic of your thesis very intriguing.

That is an amazing idea! I'd love to see more vlogs of her
As a French girl, my favorite thing in the world is watching non- French people trying to say "croissant" XD Love your vlogs !
The package stories are always a highlight.
The mix of study/ reading vlogs is actually super motivating for me because being back in college has put me in a slump because I “don’t have time to read” even tho I really do and seeing you manage it with a thesis is like YES IF YOU CAN DO IT SO CAN I
I'm also working on my thesis (in a Humanities field) which means I'm reading and writing all day, so I also don't want to read for pleasure at the end of the day which sucks. I end up just rewatching eps of sitcoms lol
Don´t get overwhelmed if you can´t read books
MY THESIS BUDDY so glad i'm not alone haha. Can't wait for our online study sessions

yesss we're gonna nail this!
I really love the color and the vibe of your videos. Plus your room is a goal! Love this reading vlog. 🙌🏽💕
You don’t give yourself enough credit and it makes me sad. You are literally a genius and your whole personality is ✨. One of the best booktubers. You are so authentic and intelligent and funny. Be yourself! We love u🙌🏾❤️🥰 also the spooky Halloween music was great
I've been working on my thesis too these last couple of months and i feel your pain with how dead your brain feels after working on it for hours....XD Your thesis topic sounds really interesting! Would really love to hear more about it as you progress through it a bit more :)

do you think it is possible to finish the thesis under two months? I've been unable to continue writing it for so long and lose any motivation...
@michelleyang4711

@@dioramomo8904 it depends on the thesis and the topic i feel. for mine i definitely can't do it in two months since there's actual research studies involved where i need to recruit participants and everything, so i need the time to actually get results for that. i'm guessing though yours is just mainly reading up stuff and writing on it. have you considered doing another topic that might make you more motivated to write it?

@@michelleyang4711 yess, you are right, my thesis based on literatures as its main sources so I hope there's still hope. thank you so much for replying, your reply somehow encouraged me to open up my file and I started writing a few pages yesterday 😭🙏. I don't think it is possible to change topic given the deadline is very close, plus I don't really have any back up topic in mind. Thank you again for becoming an encouragement to me. I hope all the best for you in your thesis writing journey! ✨
I love the vibe of this vlog... and I'm excited for the bookshelf tour and your room looks so beautiful 😊
Your reading vlogs always make me so calm and happy 💕
Yes ! It really motivates me to read and study :)
As a fellow very academic person I really liked this video! The combo of self care through fiction and then intense work on thesis was great
I love the editing and style of your vlogs! It’s so chill and the way you do them always makes me happy and relaxed. Also, I loved the new decorations in your room!! (Your room is honestly goals it’s so prettyyy)
I loved this video so much!!! The reading/studying combination is literally both of my favourite things to watch 🥰🥰
I love the mix of reading and school work!
Your videos always bring me so much joy!
That was a smooth outfit transition! Also loved the vlog..love the vibes, the aesthetic & your room is goals😍
I loved this vlog because it was a mix of everything like studying,reading, book shopping and some room decoration. Also I reeaally like the dark academia vibe 😁😁
this reading/study vlog was so cute and entertaining!! i can't wait for more :3
I really liked this vlog! It is fun and diversified. I actually supposed to write my thesis next year and it's interesting to see how others are organising their study time 👌
I really loved this vlog!! It was very fun and calming at the same time! I would love to see more reading vlogs from you
This was so fun!! I'm not writing my masters thesis yet but I love seeing the thesis writing process for others.
i loved this video so much! i love your reading vlogs they inspire me
Im reading A Deadly Education right now too, yay!
this video was sm fun!
Omg the blanket looks so comfy!
It took me some time to get into "a deadly education", but in the end it was a fun right. Not as good as "uprooted" or "spinning silver" though.
I really liked the tesis part, it helped me start my Final Philosophy Assignment. Looking forward for another vlog :)
Your apartment is so aesthetically pleasing but in a way that just shows your personality so well.😅💜
I would love some videos about theses writing! I’m starting my thesis early next year so any tips and tricks would be really useful :)
Your thesis sounds really interesting! Also I love all the plants you bought; the roses do look really nice hung up like that!
also I'm so excited for the bookshelf reorganization video!!
Can you make a video about your thesis process, like how you plan, what steps you take? Best wishes! :)
Good luck with your thesis. I always enjoy your vlogs! 😊
The dried roses look so cute
this blanket seems so comfy omg!!
The part when you were walking to the bookshop reminded me how much I love the Netherlands and how much I want to go there again
I would love to see a video of you showing how you use notion to help for your thesis!
she was born to be aesthetic
I love all this vlog and I remember the blanket is the same one you had as goblin in your Instagram
Care Bears take on the Nutcracker was my childhood jam. Though the amazing ballet version with Macaulay Culkin is probably my actual favorite.
I went through a thesis so I know how stressful it can be. I think the vlog can help other persons like you, to manage time and have mental health stability. Also you showed wonderful technical resources that they can use too. My best wishes in this step of your life and you are doing it in a very difficult pandemic moment in our history. So an applause for you 👏👏👏At least we have advanced technology to share with others like you are doing. Can you imagine how was the situation during the Spanish flu era?😱 Love that plants😍
I loved it and i cant wait for moreeee ! ❤
I like reading vlogs that incorporate real everyday life. It's really interesting to see your theses themed bits 😁 And other stuff you do 😊
the vibes in this are immaculate
yay, another reading vlog
Notion looks pretty cool! I kinda wish I was working on a thesis just so I had an excuse to play with it 😁
a hooded blanket!!! I NEED ONE 😱💖
I can relate so much to that "rewarding myself for doing the bare minimum" lol. I wrote like 20 lines of code for my assignment the other day then told myself I'm doing god's work then went and took an hour nap. I also don't know how some people find the energy and courage to make lunch, like being able to eat is cool and all but making food in the middle of the day then cleaning them up so that you could make dinner later is such a hassle, I just end up skipping lunch almost everyday. Lovely video as always though.
Omg! Love that blanket!
your room looks so cozy 😻
I love your vids so much Leonie
Yes! More thesis-y vlogs! Helps me with my own thesis, haha
Good luck with your thesis. Depression is a very important topic. Do share your progress. It keeps you accountable and we can cheer you on. The next book in the Brown sisters series is IMO even better than Chloe Brown. Another really delightful book is The House In the Cerulean Sea. It's about an older male social worker who goes to check an orphanage of potentially dangerous magical children and develops a romance with the headmaster.
i am also working on my thesis (finishing it actually) so it felt really relatable and, because of the setting and atmosphere, very cozy and therapeutic haha. Loved it. This video gave me strength to continue working on my thesis. Fightoooo haha
I love your vlogs!! 😄
I was trying to figure out your lovely accent for a while until I saw the description haha. Anyways, thrilled to know where you're from, and to get recomendations and inspiration from shops that are closer to me! I just found your channel, but I'm already loving your content!
I started my thesis yesterday! Research is the worst! 😂 I can definitely relate to not being used to having this much time until a deadline (January 4th) and having a hard time stopping for the evening, feels like I’m rushing when I don’t have to, but I also wanna be closely to done before Christmas 😬
I am really interested in your thesis , i like to understand more about depression 🍂
to kill a kingdom is soooo good!!
Lol me too I am starting writing my thesis good luck!
hahahah The cell in the background tho... same girl. I never manage to read when Im studying all day. You motivated me to try! Gaat lukken!
omg i remember getting stressed with my thesis back in college that I dedicated a week to rest before the deadline lmao hahaha this was a great vlog!!!! I'm a big fan!!!!
Fable was echt een super leuk en snel boek om te lezen ! Ik wilde het lezen tijdens de Fairyloot read-along, maar ik had het hele boek al uit op de eerste dag 😅
I love your styleeee
Hello ! Thank you for your video It was so peaceful ! Have a nice day !
I actually kind of loved Crime and Punishment when I read it for school, but the middle but was a bit of a drag
you being able to just go bookshopping in Leiden when you want a new story to read... damn wish i could do that luckily i can watch your vlog to sort of fill that void
I love vlogs like this

I just finished Addie LaRue an hour ago and can definitely confirm: it's tragic 😭 But it's fantastic! As always, your vlogs are a delight to watch 💜
So aesthetic 😍😍
I had no idea De Slegte still existed lol! It's been gone from my city (Groningen) for ages. A Deadly Education looks so cool with those pretty illustrations! Good luck with your thesis - it can be daunting, but in the end you'll be so proud of yourself :D I thought the combo of reading and studying was a lot of fun!
I love your videos!❤❤❤
Thank you for this wonderful video
Cute collection of plants but wow that cactus cushion on your sofa was so cool. Would love to know where it was from
Oh my god your thesis research is so organised! I can’t relate 😅
hey leonie! Ik zit nu in mijn masterjaar en ga echt helemaal door hetzelfde! Naast schoolwerk is er precies geen ruimte meer over in mijn hooft om nog veel intensieve of moeilijke dingen te doen. Ik heb nu ook een enorme rom com/ romantische boeken binge gewoon omdat die gemakkelijk zijn en vlug gaan en ik er vrij 'breindood' naar kan kijken / lezen. Dat kan ook niet anders dan oke zijn. :) We verdienen rust!!! Dus geniet van je Netfix rom coms en geef jezelf tijd! Zet geen druk op jezelf om specifieke dingen te tonen of bespreken op je youtube kanaal. Doe gewoon wat voor jouw nu goed voelt. :)
Ik heb Fable gelezen en het was een verrassend leuke ervaring (ik had verder nog geen geluk gehad met het lezen van piratenverhalen/dingen die zich afspelen in of onder water) ik vond de personages zeker leuk en plot ook wel :)
I enjoy your videos so much! Love from germany ☺️👋
Oh but To Kill a Kingdom is amazing!! You have to read it soon.
I like the idea of study vlogs
Omg I love your six of crows earrings they are so cute!! Where are they from?
Love Barbie movies in uni!💗
Love your Nightmare before Christmas shirt!!! So awesome..😺
YOUR EARRINGS!! OMG! 😍😍😍
The studio where I work made a CG Barbie and the Nutcracker movie back in 2001. I wonder if it’s the same one? While I didn’t work on Nutcracker I did work on a few of the other Barbie movies they made around that time :)
During my sophomore year I started reading C&P, and I was making excellent progress (bc in a creepy sort of way I had some identification with Rashkolnikov). However, I decided to hitch-hike home for a few days. My second ride was in a van with a stereo and fridge filled with cold drinks. After what must have been a five hour ride, he dropped me about a half-mile from where I lived. Accidentally, I left C&P on his dashboard. Jump forward in time six years and finally I decided to finish it, using a shelf copy in the library during some down time. So what? idk. When I finally got around to re-reading C&P online the e-book mysteriously started repeating pages, so I had to stop. Well ofc eventually I found it somewhere else. Now I wonder what will happen the next time?
First i love yourvideos second where did you get your lamp ??because i lovee it and the color of the light i loveee
your earrings are so perfect! where did you get them?
i'm just finishing my thesis now as you're starting yours!! good luck, your topic sounds super interesting! (even though i don't understand it all hehe) :-) also, now i wish i could've used a notion template like that for mine but its too late rip jcdnsjkvnsd
Just here to tell that "Kruidnoten" are called "Dutch Ginger Drops" in English 😊 .. Also: Very fun video! #like
I really enjoyed this video
Your thesis sounds interesting! I am a PhD candidate (disease ecology) and I have been using trello to organize my dissertation but wow your notion set up looks so nice!! It would be awesome to know more and I'm definitely going to check this out! My Mendeley is a mess......

Studying blogs would be amazing since I know a lot of us are getting into finals
