I personally like the color way change of The Last Raven the red dress really pops off of the cool colors.

There's just something about the Fairyloot edition of For She Is Wrath that I am obsessed with!!!

The calendar card flipping turned into an ASMR moment 😂

You could use the coin in a video to be to read OR do something else on your productivity list (during the day). And you can’t stop the vlog until you read X amount of books.

Ma'am, your lighting lately! You look stunnin!

[feylights]

I enjoy East Asian inspired fantasy, too, especially Japanese-inspired. I am a bit of a Japanophile. But I have also gotten in to danmei (Chinese gay romance, usually with fantasy elements).

I think there's a real issue at the moment of books being treated like products - which obviously they are, and book collecting is a whole other thing! - but I see so many books included in boxes and then you see the reviews and a large number of them are mediocre at best. It's almost like book boxes have forgotten their choices should also be good books in terms of their written quality. I say this as an Illumicrate and Evernight subscriber - I love special editions, though very much utilise my skips because there were plenty of books in the main IC box this year I had no interest in.

Like obviously there's nothing wrong with people reading books that bring them joy, but there seems to be a real issue online with media literacy at the moment and I can't help wondering how much of that is down to books that just aren't well written or plotted getting this kind of marketing push.

I am very excited to dive into The Last Hour Between Worlds, though—I love the idea of following a heroine who's also a new mother!

I agree with locked library. They had two books I would have picked up regardless of the subscription, but the rest were a let down. I tried for a year before giving up 😅

[sleepygryhpon]

The Teller of Small Fortunes has so many pretty covers, it's hard to choose which one I like most.

[sakurahan]

The Teller Of Small Fortunes is my favourite edition!

[Brie-oo]

I enjoy these videos. I look for it every month! Thanks!

[KaySutcliff-Michaelis]

Now we really need a video with that coin xD Maybe instead of going to sleep you have to do chores or switch books

[trulyintroverted]

Who thought putting that run on sentence as a synopsis was a good idea 😂

[atlaspeaks]

I read Fire in the Sky as an arc and I have no idea if you would like it. It’s very…tick the checklist of tropes, and then craziness happens in the last 10%. Not even good craziness. I’ve been using this book to explain the issue with current publishing trends 😅

[PistachioGold]

first of all, that sweater is really cool!!

Now the video ❤ the book pot from IC is the only thing that I like from the box xD

also I'm not a die hard Stephanie Garber fan but the calendar looks so good!! Seeing the art of the characters kinda has me wanting to give more of her books a try now (Im a simp for some of the guys omfg).

omg the edition of The teller of small fortunes is So Stunning!!! what a standout.

[jorichner]

I would buy the crap out of subtle book tea towels like that is there a artist/maker mentioned?

[Briseisgone]

Afterlight was so nice! But you have to go with your guts, so hats off to you!

[SlowlyGoes]

Lol some of the comments! I actually skipped everything for November as none appealed to me. Its like we all have a choice or something?! 😂
Enjoyed the video regardless, you do a good job of showcasing them!

[trinforeman]

I have The Last Raven as an arc and was told I'd hate it. 🙈

[holly]

the book boxes socks always get a hole in after the first wear for me 😅
