I really enjoyed this book, the concept seemed very original and creative and I thought the story was very well thought out and ties together nicely for a satisfying end.

My Once Upon A Book Club box arrived and skipped the top of my TBR. I dove in, couldn't put it down, and as always I was completely mesmerized by the clever and useful gifts that seemed like they were pulled straight from the pages of the book.

As always I cannot recommend this box enough, especially now there is a YA version ?

My Bookish Box this month was also a good one. It included the book The Hidden Memory of Objects (which I'm really happy about!), a pair of Sherlock socks, a Lunar Chronicles art print, a Marlee (from The Selection) tote bag & a Simon (TMI) candle in Java Jones scent☕️(it smells amazing!) There was also a t-shirt but it's not in the pic because I already wore it & its in the wash. It's got a Samwise quote from Lord of the Rings on it. #bookishbox
