Lately I've been seeing a lot of posts about subscription boxes. Of course when I saw some that were book related my interest perked right up!
After looking at a few of them I decided to give Book Riots YA box by Quarterly a try.
If you don't know what a subscription box it - it's pretty neat. Once a month/week/quarterly a box arrives at your home filled with fun theme related items (whatever the theme you signed up for is)
The one I signed up for is curated by Book Riot and it comes every quarter.
Last week my first box arrived!
It was really heavy!
Upon opening it here's what I saw
What's really cool is that there is a packet that explains everything in the box PLUS it had an extra scene from one of the books!
The Books
I haven't read any of them, so that was exciting!
Chasing Shadows by Swati Avasthi
Everything Leads to You by Nina LaCourA Sense of the Infinite by Hilary T. Smith
And there was a signed bookplate included :)
The Extras
These reminded me of my wedding! We used library cards for information about hotels etc! I'm going to use these at work for notes and reminders :)
I could't believe there was a book light because I had just been looking at them wanting a little one to have around!
Some Swag
All of it laid out
Over all it was pretty fun to open. I got some great new books. I'm going to keep getting this one a few more times.
If you're interested I know of these book related subscription books as well:
OwlCrate (this one is super hard to get into!)
Uppercase (I signed up for this one too)
The Bookish Box - This one interests me because it's not a book you get each month it's a bookish t-shirt!! I just might sign up for this one.
And if you want to see how crazy these subscription boxes have gotten check out this post about them on Buzzfeed.
This is an interesting idea. I hadn't heard anything about these. Thanks for the post.
