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….

@juliandherbooks1 3 года назад

leonie’s editing is on another level honestly 😻

@definitelyshana5621 3 года назад

0:37 her adding a hijabi and women of color to showcase the dark academia aesthetic makes me so happy! All the love, - a hijabi :)

@lavenderjul 3 года назад

yes!!! I notice that right away and soo happy how this aesthetic is evolving into a more diverse space for everyone to love art, learning and sharing coffee and books with otherss

I honestly didn't even realize before you pointed it out, because they both fit the aesthetic so perfectly to me 😆

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

@anadewindt232 3 года назад

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 3 года назад

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

@HarvestLockwood 3 года назад

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).

@simonsfooties 2 года назад

What about the sounds of bread being cut off in the beginning :)

@mattkean1128 3 года назад

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! 🖼️

@nanisdigitaldiary 3 года назад

The intro was so aesthetically pleasing :)) this is honestly the highlight of my day

@lavenderjul 3 года назад

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)

@written_by_hank 3 года назад

“since, ya know...the world situation.” I felt that.

Loved this video Leonie :) I can definitely relate to dark academia helping me study - but I appreciate your honesty and keeping it real not a constant 'aesthetic' just like you said... hope you continue to make Dark Academia diaries, thank you!

Ah, reorganizing! I do that from time to time as well with my collection of books and blu-ray/dvds and other stuff. Good idea taking oneself on a date to a museum. I usually do not do this either but I may actually do that. Lots of great museums to visit in Leiden!

@lex.mayy8 3 года назад

This was such a fun vlog to watch! I would love to see more of this as a series! And I really appreciate you being honest and mentioning how every little thing you do, doesn’t have to fit an aesthetic, that was really nice to hear :)

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 !

@salmanisrar3772 3 года назад

Use a habit tracker e.g. Loop for making daily habit of yoga and keep the goal to a minimum viable goal that you can do 98% of the time e.g. 2 mins or 5 mins (fix the time and place too). I practice it daily. Hope, it helps.

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. 😁

@tessmasselink2171 3 года назад

Hey Leonie! Er staat een docu op Netflix over schimmels en wat voor mogelijkheden ze bieden op wetenschappelijk maar ook spiritueel gebied, en ik denk dat je het heel erg interessant zou vinden! Het heet Fantastic Fungi. Er wordt ook iets uitgelegd over hoe bepaalde paddestoelen blijkbaar bepaalde stofjes bevatten die het aanmaken van neuronen stimuleren. Dus bij deze, aanrader! Liefs

@claudiakoppert566 3 года назад

Makes no sense! I got really hopeful when I saw Leo recommend them. Why would you do a sponsorship when you can’t get it in the country you’re based in? 😢

Just to be clear, I think TheBookLeo is totally in her right to do a sponsorship, I would have taken the opportunity too! I just think it's weird from BOTM

The rule in NYC was (idk if it is still) west of 5th Ave., free, and east of 5th Ave, pay for admission. Ofc The Met is west so technically it's free but naturally there's the 'option' of donating. It's so huge - lol - and beyond it, on the other side of Central Pk, is the Museum of Natural History, where they have the dinosaur skeletons and the cursed precious stones. Next to it is Hayden's Planetarium, which on weekend nights became the host of the laser light show called LaserRock.
