Hi! My name is Leonie and I am a 24 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 :)

when Leonie said: "i'm gonna guess that you relate to these characters, and you are a formally gifted kid who doesn't know what they wanna do with their lives and they feel like wasted potential", i felt that. the list wasn't mine, but i felt it
Omw to read all of these books because apparently that person is me 🤠
Sounds like me... Guess I gotta read these books now.
AND apparently, I also found the reason why I love Dark Academia so much.
I haven’t watched the video yet but let me guess bell jar was on the list?
screaming, cannot believe you got my personality on point by looking at my goodreads
Ah, you're the mythology one.

My smutty paranormal shifter romances on my shelves side eyeing me
too funny!!!
I'm just gonna psycho analyse you real quick and say that you're 1. Horny and 2. Feels incapable of being loved by other humans. Did I get it right ? Or am I too presumptuous?
share, rn proof or it didn't happen 🤞🤞🤞🤞
@@gloxiinia are you asking for a friend? Coz same
“How’s the therapy going?” Took me OUT hahaha especially since that shelf was my entire personality 😂
You should really make this a series! Easy content for you, entertaining for us.
As a former Perks of Being a Wallflower, Hunger Games, and Looking for Alaska kind of teenager, the “how many boys thought that you were their manic pixie dream girl?” made me audibly gasp. It wasn’t my Goodreads, but you saw into my soul just then.
I love how you aren’t shaming people for their interests and kinks, just making it into a light joke we can all find funny. I hate it when people shame, but you do a great job at making it funny and not shameful. I found this very entertaining, and also a little called out…😂❤
“And if you’re not straight why are you only reading tragic lgbtq+ book?”
Because I like to relate to stuff 😭
True true
Also hii
i’m so glad i got judged in this and i made you laugh! and also if it helps i dnf-ed the night circus because i decided i wanted to listen to it on audiobook for the vibes, so that one’s just on hold for the moment. great video!!!
The audiobook is great!! Read by Jim Dale, who also masterfully narrated the US-version of the Harry Potter series.
did you like it? i've read the first fifteen pages twice...
@@jmsl910bit late to the party, but I’ve read the Night Circus! In a similar position to you, I had to start over a couple times to get the ball rolling. It’s very much a book more focused on the atmosphere than the plot, so you have to be in a certain headspace to read it imo. When I read it I didn’t really get the hype, but it’s very much a book I could go back to in a few years once I’ve forgotten the plot and am not at a point where I’ve got low mental energy.
your aesthetic in this video is absolutely perfect, the shadowy lighting, the black nails and reddish top under black, the mood you are in dissecting all the lists, i just absolutely love it
i LOVED this. these weren't even my shelves and yet I personally felt so called out lmao
utterly terrifying when you said "it's Capricorn energy" and I, a Capricorn, looked up from my work to see a Goodreads shelf that looks just like mine 😂 so, uh, I guess that was accurate!
SAMEEE, I felt called out and it wasn’t even my shelf
Same omg I was gonna comment this lol
Same 😂
why some many people still like the astrology pseudoscience? There are better hobbies
Sameeeeeeeeeee
There are a few reasons why I don't rate all of my books on goodreads, the main ones being:
1) I want to give said book a half star (i.e. 3.5) but goodreads doesn't facilitate that
2) When I joined goodreads I added a load of books I'd already read, and felt I couldn't accurately rate them retrospectively
Storygraph allows for half and quarter star ratings! You can also upload your goodreads shelf directly so you don’t need to manually put in every book you’ve already read
Interesting
Ooh, I love Judgmental Leonie! Sorry I missed the offer to send Goodreads lists---I'd love to know what you'd make of mine. Have a great week, Leonie!
Petition to make it a series! I absolutely loved this

Whoever had aftg, mdzs and tgcf in their favorites: I love you. Impeccable taste.
Please clue me in to the acronyms here…
@@CGyog aftg means all for the game, mdzs is mo dao zu shi aka grandmaster of demonic cultivation and tgcf is tian guan ci fu aka heaven official's blessing
Yuppp i lovee tgcf , mdzs and 2ha
Not aftg tho :( haven't read it
I was looking for this comment !!! The danmei fandom is really living in the underground 😭

Please make a series out of this!! 😂
Loved your comments on mine, it made me laugh out loud a lot, not gonna lie! And it was a great start to the week! Thank you! 😄
Why so many unrated books on Goodreads? For me the answer is that I had around 60 years of reading before there was Goodreads. I try to enter books that I know I have read with the approximate dates that I read them. But it is usually a bit much to supply a star rating. I may not remember them well enough to give a fair rating. If I do remember them, I may be conscious of the fact that I would rate quite differently when I read them than decades later. So I skip a rating unless I decide to reread books I read long ago.
Same, just less years passed, but my memory is a bitch
The enemies to lovers part literally enlightened me.
7:00 has a similar taste in books to me (although I haven't read any webcomics other than Heartstopper) so that was interesting. Also my average rating is 4.6 and I think it's more because I added a bunch of books from before I had goodreads that I read a while back and rated the ones I remember really liking as 5 stars but didn't rate the rest, so both there's the imbalance and the fact that they probably weren't that good I just remember them as better.
I made a Goodreads account to track what I read (before I just wrote it down in a notebook) and also added a bunch of books at the same time (like, 20 years of reading). Some I rated based on memory - if I remember liking them, 5 stars- and some I didn't rate at all. For some, I changed the rating a few years later.
Lol my goodreads in a nutshell
I need a round two because I missed this one and I want to enter!! Loved this so much.
I was gonna submit mine but Fahrenheit 451 is on my favourites shelf and I wasn’t ready for that judgement
Omg when you said that minimalistic it’s Capricorn vibes I almost spilled my water off my mouth, cause I’m a Capricorn and my Goodreads it’s exactly like that!
Also, I have a Virgo boyfriend and you nailed in that description too!
In defense of people with high average ratings: I used to be an avid reader untill like 3 years ago and started reading again maybe a year ago. It isn't a habit like it used to be and so I only want to spend my time reading books I will most likely actually really like and not spend my time on books that are just okay or not fun at all and I think a lot of people do the same
Omggg PLEASE make more of these, this was incredible
This is the most fun I had on a monday morning EVER! Why does this all feel so accurate? Hope you do this again sometime. 😊
She made my day!
we need this to become a series! I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a video this much!!!!!!!
These videos make me want to seriously deep dive my good reads and rate books I have read and all the things 😂❤
The commentary kinda reminded me of Joe from You for some reason, him thinking about people in the bookstore or whatever and that just makes it funnier😭
ok, this is exceptionally hilarious, you just casually shook that out of your sleeve too!
I adore All for the game too - the found family in it is too beautiful, and I can't help but love my favorite unhinged characters xDDD
I completely agree about ratings systems. You can't like every single book exactly the same unless you're the easiest person to please on the planet. As for me, most books are about a 3 star read. I don't love them or hate them. They're fine. But every now and then I get one that's terrible or one that I love. So I use those ratings too. Just not as often.
Make it a series Leonie !! I'll send mine next time😭
I don't know what manifesting is exactly, but I'm manifesting that you one day bring this series back and psychoanalyze my goodreads 👀
this is lovely!!! reminded me to update my goodreads lmaooo
You should make this a series but at the end recommend a book they’ll like base on their favorites
THE LIGHTING AND PHOTOGRAPHY OF THIS VIDEO IS IMMACULATE
Leonie, have to read Fence! It's LGBTQ+ rivals to lover graphic novel. Though the author didn't not really confirmed that they will be lover. But she did gave few hints. At least, I ship them together and other readers too. You should definitely do a reading vlog. 😊
Those sword earrings are a vibe
Love your vids Leonie! I've been into Audible for a while, but thanks to you, Uncarley, and Haley Pham, my love of reading has increased!
Now I need to look into that fencing graphic novel series.
I looooooved this, please make this a series!
This has to be one of my favorite videos you’ve made! Please do another one!
Loved every second of this 🤣 please make this a Series, I am ready to be judged
OMG a month ago I started All For The Game and I cant get out of it!!! Its actually a problem. I spend more time relistening to the audiobooks and reading fanfic than I do doing hw. I have entire paragraphs of the series memorized and routinely quote them TO MYSELF
low key actually spot on with the Capricorn energy analogy
We need more of this 😢
Now I feel bad that my goodreads is completely unsorted. I just put books on there as I finish them and then never consult my list again.
I absolutely love the psychoanalysis in this video. Please do more of them!
This is a brilliant idea. Fucking loved it. Please make it a thing I am really curious to see what you would make of mine heheh
13:18 OMG I HAD THE RAINBOW FISH as a kid I totally forgot it existed but wow it awakened some lost memory in my head
That person's shelf literally looks like mine, it screams queer teen if you ask me
you nailed every analysis on this video I need more! also i’m obsessed with your rings
How I got hair oil to work for me is you rub into your ends and when it is absorbed you brush it through your hair. Most of the hair damage is on the ends so it needs the most added hydration and prevents the appearance of oily hair. But that's just what worked for me!
thank you!!
A lot of my books are unrated, I just use storygraph as a way to keep track of what I have read, so I don't always think to rate them
The enemy to lover assumption hit me deep in my heart😂😂😂
Loved this video!
This is so accurate, please do a part two!!
14:15 that entire monologue just called me out massively!!
I absolutely loved this! What a fun idea for content! I would love to see more of this
this was SO fun! you need to do another one ASAP
Absolutely loved this video would like a part 2 if you ever think of doing it again xx
Cannot believe I made it in this video!!! I was the last girl...embarassed to say you were absolutely correct
5:20
there are no words to describe the rage this fills me with. brave new world is a MASTERPIECE, and an utter dystopian diamond in a sea of reading experiences. whoever that person is, you are not better than brave new world. you are NOT.
ahem. i like a brave new world a lot in case it wasn't. clear.
I have never wanted someone to judge me so bad
Leonie also got a psych degree and didn’t tell us✨
I love this video! We definitely need a part 2!
Me after Leonie psychoanalyzed the love for enemies-to-lovers-trope: ... Shut up, Leonie 😑😂
Honestly, she went straight for the throat there 😂
@@sabrina.lnd95 Damn right she did 😂
Somehow I missed this. Hopefully you do it again - would love to be one of the Goodreads you judge 😂
the capricorn energy one is so true bc I the only have tbr, cr, and read shelves loll
I LIVE for these kind of videos. I literally laughed out loud at some descriptions 🤣
@9:13 That's funny you mention the rating system that way. I always grade on a "this was such a fun read/experience" as a 5, "this was really good but there was something that held it back", "it was okay I guess" as a 3, "no thank you" as a 2 and a "why the fuck did I read this?" as a 1. I do admit though I have rated 4/5 before on "this was written really well and I recognize that but it really wasn't my thing - I don't want to label it poorly for that reason as that seems cruel"
I love seeing the various comments and the breakdown of how everyone else rates their reads; it's always fascinating to get others' perspectives since while we all check the ratings, they come from very different starts.
we need a part 2!!!
You're so funny. It's just pure joy watching this video and laughing along!
Your “Enemy’s to Lovers” comment, really frightened me, you know me so well! 😬
oh my goodness, your sword earrings are just the best ever. I have my ears pierced but i don't wear earrings. Seeing those makes me want to wear them again. love this content
When she said, “you’re probably a serial killer … but you have a great fashion sense …” that cracked me up!
that "my money don't jiggle jiggle" bit at the end omg I have it stuck in my head 24/7
also! great video :D any thoughts on Emily St. John Mandel or Ocean Vuong? they are two of my fav authors
Leonie's enemies to lovers analysis did, in fact, ruin my day...but I feel UNDERSTOOD :) Bravo *clap clap clap*
12:30 I wish I could stop reading a series I don't like but-
what if it gets better in the end? Or in the next book? How will I know this if I drop a series? Also, the feeling of completing something, I only get it when I'm finished with a book/series
Your reaction at 5:13 is everything 😭😭😭
I WAS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO LOVE AFTG.... I literally laughed out loud like a maniac when I saw that persons top ratings
Same tho 😂
Oh judgemental Leonie is so much fun 💜 I'd love to get in on this next time. If you could host submissions outside of Twitter that would be amazing!! 💜✨
I think this is my fav video ever
You're absolutely right about not having to force yourself to finish a series - but that's exactly me with the shows I'm watching. I know it's a waste of time, but it just doesn't sit right with me to stop watching or even skip filler episodes. 😅
this is like a tarot reading but with books... and I'm here for it :D
This is so entertaining Leonie, hoping you'll make a series of this! Will you be reviewing more of goodreads lists? If yes, I'd love to get you review/judge my list lol
the effort in the psychoanalysis is topnotch
HEAVY on your reaction when they dnf’ed the masterpiece that is The Night Circus
I used to follow a book reviewer until I realized that she gave all the books she read 5 or, lowest, 4 stars. Like, do you have a taste if you read that variety of books and love them all equally?
agreed
95 % of the books i rate are 4 or 5 stars but that is because i am very very careful about the books i start, i read the synopsis, reviews and sometimes watch reviews on youtube first and with doing that i really enjoy most of the books i read :) and i also don't read generes that are not for me like fantasy and history
One of the best/funniest videos I've watched in awhile 😅👌 please do part 2
PLEASE MAKE THIS A VID SERIES I BEGG LEONIE ILY
someone suggested you make it a series... id love that!
Can you do more of this? This is such an amazing content. 🥰
The burnt out gifted kid-dark academia connection was a personal attack
Would loveee to see more of this!!
just realised the bible could be described as a slow burn enemies to lovers
omg this was so fun to watch!! I would love it if you did a part 2!!
I NEED a new video like this cause i NEED u to judge my goodreads
