Every single orange book I own · Bookshelf Tour

[@ferrentes]

I would love videos around the matters of minimalism meets sustainability meets creativity!

[@karline6234]

Yes absolutely same!

[@melodiesandmemories7739]

As a 24-year-old, I've realized I have NO idea what my style is. The clothes I can afford are too immature for me, and the clothes I actually like I can't afford. I have no cohesion in my closet whatsoever. So any videos about finding your style without buying tons of clothes and then having to get rid of them would be great! (could even be a twenties toolkit)

[@trasslaren]

I haven't read the whole thing yet but "the curated closet" by Anuschka Rees is all about that. By the book podcast has an episode on it which is so informative I don't think you'd need to read the book. :)

[@lotta_kannfastalles]

I have the same problem with expensive stuff but I renew my wardrobe reeeeaally slowly through buying specific expensive pieces but second hand on online thriftstores. That means, that it sometimes takes years to get a certain style of jumper but I know that I will not want to replace it until it‘s falling apart. This started because the cheap vegan highstreet shoes don‘t even last a year and I don‘t buy leather new so I had to look towards second hand stuff

[@93Tilly]

I would recommend going for a classic ''mood board" exercise and putting together a load of images which encapsulate your preferences. I did this with my summer/winter colour palettes on Pinterest. It reeaaally helped me figure out which pieces I already had that could be staples and where I needed to swap/sell. You'd probably be surprised by how many key pieces you already have and depop is an absolute lifesaver when you have something specific in mind :)

[@tiffytattoo2450]

Spoiler alert: Your style will change again xD I personally feel it's more about colour and maybe silhouette. Mid 20s I changed from bright pin up/Rockabilly to flowy black. I couldn't love it more. I have 90% black stuff, very easy. Plus olive/forrest green and burgundy/purple. So much easier for me. Love it! (Well aware in my 50s I'm gonna turn into complete cultured hippie boho chique with fuchsia, royal blue and a white hat)

[@MaryEilish]

I would definitely enjoy the videos on minimalism and creativity! I feel like you would explain elegantly the thoughts I can't quite articulate in my own head

[@lorethehobbit]

I think what people don’t realise about minimalism, is that it’s not an “aesthetic”. It absolutely doesn’t need to be a series of monotone shades and empty rooms. It can be creative and colourful, it’s just about eliminating the things which are unnecessary or drag you down in some way. Painting your walls purple, hanging art prints from your favourite artists, having colourful clothes which genuinely serve you and that you actually wear - it can be anything you want it to be really. But at its core, it’s about being conscious of what you purchase instead of restricting yourself or indulging without purpose. If you want to buy a load of books because you know you’ll read them and it’s financially viable for you to do so then go for it. Go with your gut, if something brings back memories you’d rather leave behind then get rid of it. If you wear something often and it makes you feel good when you wear it then keep it. I believe minimalism is very personal to the individual and absolutely can be creative, it’s just about replacing the restrictive aspect of minimalism with intuition.

[@emilyschettlers]

I've started having a tab open to my library website so whenever Leena tells me about a book I can just request that same moment.

[@morwennaforatenner604]

It can be hard to keep up, she recommends so many gems

[@HaleyShealy15]

This is a slightly tangental comment but I've noticed that you never fumble over an author's name or say "I'm not sure how to pronounce it" i.e. not putting effort into learning author's names. I really appreciate that. It is one of my biggest pet peeves when people on booktube/podcasts/etc. don't research how to properly say an authors name before talking about them. Especially considering those names are likely not western and therefore should be lifted all the more higher. Thanks for the that. You're one of the only people (perhaps Jen Campbell does so as well?) I watch who does this.

[@narflet]

Kayla of BooksandLala is excellent about this, explicitly talks about how she always makes an effort to research how to pronounce an authors name. I think it was also her who once talked about how audiobook narrators don’t necessarily say an authors name correctly even though you’d expect them to be a reliable source!

[@HaleyShealy15]

@@narflet WHAT! I'm so surprised audiobook narrators can get away with that! Thanks for the reminding me of BooksandLala. I keep hearing about her channel but forgetting to look her up. Definitely think I'll give her a follow.

[@UnlovelyRita]

Regarding the minimalism theme: I would love for you to make more videos about minimalism, sustainability, and creativity :) I got rid of so many unuseful things when I decided to go on a minimalist purge, but I refused to get rid of most of my clothing items, except things that didn't fit me or that I absolutely disliked. The thought of having a white wardrobe also stresses me out!! And it seems that most capsule wardrobes and minimalist wardrobes are always white, grey, and beige, which personally I find quite boring. I need color!! I have clothes that I've owned for 10+ years, and even though I do not wear them every month or even every year, I often find myself rediscovering some of the older pieces and feeling like they're new again. I noticed that this has kept me from wanting to buy new clothes, which ends up being more sustainable than getting rid of all my older fast-fashion items and purchasing new sustainably made clothes. (Also, you're really rocking that orange turtle neck!)

[@emmagrace289]

Your thoughts on how hoarding is possibly a reaction to living in a society which doesn’t offer people a secure future, was really eye opening to me. Me and my mum are ‘grubby hoarders’ as you put it (love that) and I’d never thought of it that way but it’s a fascinating idea.

[@samanthabartlett4562]

I feel the same way!

[@danieladamico5485]

Same here! Sometimes I save stuff because I worry about not being able to get it again if I need it in the future.

[@LarnieRadek]

“I live in Britain, the sky is grey enough” 🤣

[@Anna-pd6dc]

I'm a big fan of most minimalism content, but the one "rule" I've heard that makes me mad is "The 20/20 Rule" which is that if you're unsure about keeping something, ask yourself if you could replace it for under $20 and in under 20 minutes. The presumed privilege of that is stunning.

[@leenanorms]

I'd never heard that one but that does sound a little silly 😂

[@sumayaa334]

Today's look is immaculate!!!

[@leenanorms]

Haha thank you!

[@bookishshenanigans4769]

We stan bold eyeshadow Leena! That edition of Gone with the Wind is real book porn and so happy you love Howard's End, it's a masterpiece. "I live in Britain, the sky is grey enough" speak your truth, grey is a boring af colour!

[@shellyisms]

That quote from her was amazing!

[@rachelsydd]

I was so into that conversation about minimalism and sustainability and thing libraries that I completely forgot that this was a video about books and was abruptly brought back to reality at 13:56.

[@07mferri]

I would LOVE some videos about Capsule/Minimalism/sustainability/colour. You would have a wonderful perspective on it, and you’re so right. SO many grey/camel colored capsule wardrobes, which is not realistic for me

[@xXMrsRecklessXx]

Your comment at the beginning really caught my attention, I would love to see a video about the significance of colour on book covers!

[@carolinastarlingmanne3788]

Yeeeesss please!! ☺️

[@hannahgriffith8530]

Yes Leena I would love to see videos where you talk about your colourful clothes. That would make my week. : )

[@MargaretRose723]

I would enjoy some fashion vids :) I also really enjoyed your commentary on the relationship between minimalism and capitalism. Often the discussions around minimalism center very heavily on a person's will power and fails to acknowledge the fact that people are not just at their own mercy, but that of a consumerist society. Placing the all the effort on the individual leaves out a huge piece of the puzzle.

[@kathryn6403]

You look so cozy 🥰 I'd love to have more fashion videos, and I really relate to what you said about minimalism. I grew up in a really rural area and if we needed something, it was never just a quick trip to go get it, so even though I don't live like that anymore, it has always struck me as very privileged to see people get rid of most of their things? Which seems backwards. I think my favourite orange books are Circe by Madeline Miller, and Inside the Outbreaks by Mark Pendergrast. Although shockingly, have not felt like revisiting this book about epidemic surveillance this year 🙃

[@RoisinsReading]

I'm really interested in your thoughts on minimalism, because I'm trying to work out my own feelings about it too. There's so much privilege and also almost a capitalist/productivity obsession that goes into the the online minimalist culture. Like they also seem to get up at 5am and not talk about how rich their parents are.

[@gwynneio]

You should check out asmallwardrobe's video on this! I think it was called "i only wore 1 shirt for three years:manimalism"

[@ElleEverhart]

Please please pleaseeee make a video about the joy of colour

[@leenanorms]

Coming on Friday :)

[@samanthabartlett4562]

Ah yes! You put the minimalist/eco friendly thing into words! I've struggled a bit with wanted to be more minimalist but I always dread needing something right after I've cleared it out. I sort of learned to "hoard" from my grandmother who was raised by folks who struggled during the great depression. Her home is always cluttered in a cozy lived in sort of way and she always has what you need tucked away in a closet somewhere

[@andrapiftor8777]

Daria Andronescu ( on youtube) has some great videos on the topic of capsule wardrobes and colour palettes .

[@Rheartsliterature17]

I feel the capsule wardrobe thing SO MUCH! I don't even feel like I dress nearly as colorfully as I could, but I still LOVE color in my wardrobe. I just (personally-no shade to neutral lovers) don't get the appeal of wearing only neutrals? I also love pattern and when you have lots of patterns in your wardrobe, it's so much harder to have minimal options, because you do need options that you can match with those patterns. I'm also so on the creativity front--I think it's great to have only a few staples, but having pieces you love that only get pulled out sparingly for special occasions feels right to me. Anyway, I enjoyed hearing your thought on the topic!

[@emmeline-tyler]

Orange books on my bookcase: Little Labours by Rivka Galchen. The Rosie Project, by Graeme Simsion. Very different but both thoroughly enjoyed!

[@leafbladed]

In every single video you manage to talk about a lot of stuff without losing the point of the video and I love that!!

[@francestidey9590]

I have paused the video to ask you to please do some videos on sustainability / creativity / minimalism!!! Would love to hear more of your thoughts as someone who has always struggled with strict minimalism, so pls share your wisedom!!

[@SaiNagay]

LEENA! Did not expect Meena Kandasamy's Exquisite Cadavers in your shelf!! She's my favourite author, and I highly recommend picking her first book up- "The gypsy goddess". I (an Indian) don't expect to see any Indian author other Roy and Lahiri in non Indians' bookshelves, so this was a sweet surprise! :)

[@beautifulday1996]

i really appreciate your discussion of minimalism, you mentioned some points that i often miss in other people's approach to it and i'd love to hear you talk about it even more in the future! As someone who was raised by parents that grew up and lived in the gdr, keeping things and 'hoarding' is not motivated by capitalist greed but by an effort to make the most of what you own, save resources and money, and be prepred for potential scarcity in the future...

[@DancethedrizzleBlogspot]

High five from across the border, former Czechoslovakia. What I see now, esp. in the older generation, is a clash of growing up in this mindset that you mention - keeping your posessions to make the most of them - with today's relative prosperity and ease to obtain anything and everything, often cheaply. Which, inevitably, leads to some degree of hoarding. (At least in my experience with the people in my circles.)

[@albaKonst]

Minimalism frustrates me when it becomes about ~having~ less stuff, as opposed to *buying/consuming* less stuff. Like when people do a wardrobe clear out and then just go and buy more clothes. I am fiercely creative; i love making things in so many different ways - knitting, sewing, woodwork, embroidery, leatherwork, painting, drawing, etc. My partner complains that I have so much stuff, but why would I throw things out just for the sake of having less stuff? They're all things I use, or I want to use in the future, and I don't want to throw away material scraps or paper scraps or small balls of leftover wool when I could use them in a project in the future. I'm definitely a grubby hoarder in that way - I hate throwing anything away when there's the possibility that I might put it to good use in the future. So yes, I would *love* to hear about minimalism and sustainability and creativity. Really cool to hear you talk about thing libraries and even toy libraries when you were little! I volunteer at a tool library, and tool libraries are fast growing in number across the UK! There's at least one in London now (Brixton) so that might be worth checking out - you could probably borrow a decent sewing machine for example!

[@eleanorpr328]

I ate an orange as i watched this and it made everythong seem so calm and perfect! Loved your monologue, gave me a lot to this about. Anyway - would love love love videos about minimalism and capitalism and sustainability and creativity, and also clothes/outfit videos!(as long as they are sustainable, but ofc with you they would be!)

[@ionlydressthatway]

I'm sure you already know this, but Niall Ferguson's book on Empire is basically pro-British colonialism. I'm sure it's valuable to understand the other side of the argument, but Ferguson's generally positive opinion of Empire is something to bear in mind when going in! So I'm happy to hear you're starting with David Olusoga's Black and British - in my opinion this is a much better option!!

[@grayswagner]

The mixture of creativity, sustainability, and minimalism is DEFINITELY a difficult conundrum. I'm a theatre major a part of a green theatre club and figuring out that meeting point is a challenge. I LOVE clothes and I never know when I actually need to give them up.

[@Henryzword]

Yes, yes, yes with your take on minimalism. This is my new favourite happy channel. By happy channel I mean it gives me hope and is funny as apposed to the majority of my watching and reading being focused on heavy topics with very little room for mirth. Reading about the big topics and acting upon your leaning while remaining humerus is why I'm now a subscriber with bells on.

[@rachelfirst8621]

Your make-up look!!! Constantly reminding me to put effort into the small things! Thank you for making the world more beautiful!

[@quinnrhodes3617]

I just wanted to say that I love your outfit in this video SO MUCH. The dungarees and the jumper are just SO GOOD and while I'm not ever going to be an eye make-up person yours is gorgeous and inspires me to be more creative with how I present myself and explore the ways I'm playful in how I look. (There is so much awesomeness in this video apart from you clothes - I think this is my third time rewatching your Rainbow bookshelf tour series? - but as ever you're inspiring me to both read more and be more creative in how I dress.)

[@13thswimmer]

I would LOVE to hear you talk more about the duality of enjoy fashion creatively (and colorfully) while also trying to be sustainable. As someone who enjoys fun, loud fashion the capsule wardrobe never stuck, but I do really want to be more sustainable with fashion and it sometimes feels impossible.

[@jamesfv1]

I love the toy library! We had no money so I went back six times to re borrow the baby born, and then finally after a year, my parents could afford to buy me one and returning it made me so damn sad, because I had a history with that one. Then it was stolen after a month and never again could afford another one. It’s a bittersweet memory as a child. But I will always be so grateful for the toy library.

[@puffinposts]

yes please make the videos about the relationships between minimalism/sustainability and creativity/expression at earliest convenience, I am so here for it, thank you please x

[@shellyisms]

A gradient of grey! Oh my gosh! I live! I’m a color girl myself. Bright, bold, beautiful neons, jewel tones, and rainbows in my closet.

[@ixlovexrain]

I first got into minimalism a few years ago and at the time it felt right and was a great tool to focus on goals that had to do with saving money and downsizing my wardrobe, so that I could easily move abroad.. However, after 2 years of travelling, I've found a new place to call home and I feel so much better having lots of things on the walls and on shelves, etc. It makes it feel so much more personal and homey and I've learned that I can still save lots of money while getting 'new' (mostly second-hand but I love that) things. A lack of things makes me feel so unsettled.

[@jacquelinemcmenamin8204]

I look forward to the blue shelf and the white/grey shelf. I don’t have enough books to organise them by colour. I only have a poetry shelf, Thrillers, Literary and non fiction. Loved Overstory on audio

[@moonbbear]

I WOULD LOOOOOVEEE THE FASHION VIDEOS YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. i struggle with curating and editing my wardrobe in a sustainable way but trying to keep the colorful pieces I like and make that work!! I'd love to hear your input!!

[@jayweasley]

Leena you have rlly solved my years long crisis about books that I love but only for 5-10 min at a time. This applies in multiple situations but I think before bed is where these books truly shine😂

[@leenanorms]

Yes! Is a marathon not a race, sometimes it takes me years to finish a book!

[@AlyssaReids]

Thank you so much for sharing your bookshelf. I just love seeing what people have on their shelves. Happy Reading!!!

[@roebearwhat]

I was talking about wanting to find my style and thought of you and rowan ellis and the kind of clothes I would like to wear and I was trying to think of a video where you have several outfits to show a friend, remembered the "chuck out your clothes with me" vid and was amazed by how much your style has changed in just a couple years so I would LOVE more fashion content to feed my soul, like the raccoon in Pocahontas...

[@najualb]

the way you talk about books is so unique and eye-opening!!!

[@pamkellman1068]

I am also way too colorful to get on board with the monochrome beige minimalism fashion thing, so I'd be really interested in seeing your take. I struggle with the amount of clothes I own. I thrift most of my stuff, but have difficulty letting stuff go. Also really into the idea of thing libraries...I would love to see a tools/home improvements library in my community. Thought about this as I was painting my living room...like how wasteful is it to hold onto almost an entirely intact can of ivory paint. Wish I could find someone who would use it so that it doesn't go to hazardous waste disposal. My local library (Akron, Ohio, USA) has a baking pan collection and also a borrowed art program!

[@miadutch5641]

yes to libraries of things!!! we have one in Cardiff and it is PRECIOUS

[@whylal]

Lovely eyeshadow look! I would really enjoy videos on creativity and minimalism, and especially on the joy of colour. I only have three orange books on my shelf right now, none of which I've read so far, but I do remember reading Gifts by Ursula K. Le Guin, which has an orange spine, so let's go with that!

[@mojimoji5368]

Those are my two favourite plotlines in The Overstory too!!

[@gigi3843]

favourite orange book: 'Play the Piano Drunk Like a Percussion Instrument Until the Fingers Begin to Bleed a Bit' by Bukowski, also one of my favourite titles

[@LilTwittee]

I can't believe there was a time when you didn't have a fringe!!! WOW it still looks so great

[@charlotteboys3337]

For want of a 'Thing library', I really like the function of the 'Sell your stuff' facebook page in my city which rather than just being focused on selling things has a lot of posts from people asking if they can borrow things. I've leant out my tripod for someone's wedding, we've borrowed a high chair and a travel cot for when my partner's family came to visit. Also great point about artist income streams, I hadn't thought about that! I can't watch videos about curating spring/summer/autumn/winter capsule wardrobes 😅. The idea of having a whole different but still 'minimal' wardrobe for different seasons rather than just adding a coat and scarf to your usual clothes, can't relate 🙃.

[@madisonsilva9505]

Yes! Would love to hear/talk more about minimalism and creativity! I especially feel the weight of this when I move... Do options make us more liberated or paralyzed??

[@molly3713]

I struggle to now imagine you without a fringe, it suits you so well!!

[@HeglaYoutube]

YESSS 😍 can you go through every single colour please this is my fave

[@leenanorms]

I'm on my way, five down, 3(???) to go!

[@adeleh2905]

I sure hope you will do these fashion videos, as a lover of colour and patterns with kind of an extended capsule wardrobe myself, it would be so fun and interesting to watch !

[@mawkernewek]

I'm getting The overstory via my local library, which thankfully is still open for click and collect.

[@hannahgriffith8530]

I'm not sure, but maybe a more sustainable version of an outfit video might be say taking a top and showing different things you might put it with to show people how you don't need a massive wardrobe to come up with different outfits. I also think not focusing too much on whether people will be able to exactly recreate the outfit themselves, as a lot of fashion KZbinrs do, helps as it lends itself more to secondhand items which is great.

[@sheoverheard]

Oh I've never been this early, what a great look leena! Orange suits you! Interesting as ever, my book wishlist grows again.

[@localabsurdist6661]

I would love to see a video like that... I love having a small wardrobe and being a Minimalist but I also enjoy to experiment with clothing 🤗

[@trasslaren]

Some of my orange books are definitely faded red books! Anyways, my favourites are probably "Momo" by Michael Ende(which I have loved since I was a child.), "Maken" (The husband) by Gun-Britt Sundström which is a swedish modern classic about a relationship, unfortunately it doesn't seem to be translated into english but it's very funny and sad and relatable, and also "Bad feminist" by Roxane Gay which is orange in the swedish translation. :D

[@bohobeauty550123]

My family home burnt down in an accidental fire summer 2018 so "Did You Ever Have A Family" will be a definite no go hahaha

[@derrisreaditbefore]

I am loving your bookshelf tour, and have to tell you that your copy of Gone With the Wind is GORGEOUS. I'm sad that you haven't found the inspiration to read it yet, so here's a little spark, Margaret Mitchell was a historian, and GWtW was her way of tying together a lot of the Civil War timeline. Though appropriate to it's time, the casual racism can be difficult to process, but the story is worth it, if only to say, you've read it.

[@rebekahbacon7817]

Captivated by your eye-makeup! Honestly, how?!? I'd love more fashion vids - especially on that line of showing creativity in a sustainable way. Especially when it comes to minimalism I struggle with things that are sentimental but are basically rubbish and this spills into clothes a lot for me

[@narflet]

I read Did You Ever Have a Family for my book group, I nominated it based on your rec, and the book we read after it was All the Birds, Singing by Evie Wyld which also features a fire so the two books are permanently linked in my mind and I sometimes forget which is which. 😅

[@emilyemily527]

Your bangs look great!

[@lydiafrost8769]

I have never tried to be a minimalist because I have never really had a problem with over-consumption (because I hate shopping). I have clothes from over 10 years ago that I saved for a while and then brought back into my wardrobe later. It's like everyone forgot about the reuse part of reduce reuse recycle. The thing that infuriates me so much about the mainstream minimalism movement is how incredibly classist it is. It's mind boggling to me that people think everyone is in a position where they can just rebuy things whenever they need them instead of stocking up when they can afford it or when things are cheaper on sale or in bulk. I remember watching a minimalism decluttering video one time and the girl literally threw out everything that had multiples even to the point where she thought she only needed one pen. For some reason that really stuck with me as being absurdly ridiculous and privileged.

[@leenanorms]

I for one will NEVER do a pen clear out, I refuse 😂

[@thegreenworld6440]

[@Iris-hc1hs]

When you were talking about Beg, Steal, Barrow I was reminded of the episode knockoffs by the podcast Articles of Interest. In the episode she discusses how copyright protection (in the clothing industry in this case) often just protects big corporations since they have the money to start a lawsuit. Whereas when the designs of small designers gets stolen by big fast fashion companies (which happens a lot apparently), it's really hard for a small designer to sue the big corporation. So in reality copyright law doesn't protect the individual artist, it just gives more power to big corporations. It's a really interesting topic and I can definitely recommend this podcast to people who find this stuff interesting! I'll definitely pick up Beg, Steal, Borrow when I get a chance :).

[@TeresaSarasa]

i would LOVE discussions on minimalism "influencers" and how the movement crashes with sustainability and creativity!!!!

[@katiecarnation3116]

I bought The Overstory after watching your video on it and it changed my life.

[@alrockon]

I actually thought at the beginning of the video “videos about her style of clothes would be great!” You’re always colourful :)

[@jazeolo]

I've been slowly and steadily reading The Overstory for most of this year, and I'm just getting to the part where Patricia's storyline starts to intersect with the others. Everything you said about the book reinvigorated my desire to finish it! Loved the whole video, of course.

[@valentineh.1341]

I would really like some videos on clothes as well as minimalism as I struggle with finding a balance between the minimalist that I want to be and the maximalist that I am/makes me happy !

I'd love more minimalism/sustainability/fashion/creativity videos from you! I struggle daily trying to align my ideals on these topics. ((Also, really loving the bangs!))

[@joanaranito]

A capsule wardrobe doesn’t have to be only neutral colors! Check out Daria Andronescu - her videos showing how to create colorful capsule wardrobes with lots of personality have helped me a lot, and are great for inspiration and advice on how to make the clothes you already have work for you 😊

[@nl3237]

[@citlali333]

Regarding your comments around minimalism- have you watched any of Hannah Louise Poston's videos? She has a condensed idea of "fewer, nicer things" that takes a lot of inspiration from minimalism, but gives a lot of room to play and curate a style. And she's a writer and I think you would really like her speaking style.

[@ayahsaheb9029]

Would love the videos on minimalism! 💜 And a great video as always! 😊

I think my favourite orange book is 'here i am' by jonathan safran foer. What a stunning cover. And what a heartbreaking story.
