Owlcrate just sent out an email that they will be starting new quarterly box subscriptions starting spring 2025. The categories are romance, science fiction, romantasy, and horror. More details to come.

Soubhiville That‘s pretty cool! Thanks for the heads up. 6mo

A friend recently bought me three of these cardboard book stands, and I put them together today. Here‘s a portion of my Sci-Fi/Fantasy TBR shelf, now more easily viewable! It frustrates me that they‘re not wider—I have to be a little flexible with my alphabetical order to make it work—but even so, I think I‘m gonna pick up some more and use them for several of my taller shelves.

I treated myself to the Parker‘s bring on the heat big box snd it arrived Wednesday of last week. Such a long week so I loved seeing it on my doorstep. There are a lot of summer goodies in it but also 10 signed books (4 from Weston, 4 from Ali, and 2 from C. Morgan). So happy I splurged on the big size. I don‘t think I‘ll get all these read anytime soon but I‘ll probably start one this weekend. #20in4readathon @Andrew65

OK can anybody help me? A couple days ago I saw a post in which someone had decided which book box to get their children. She liked it because it was for all ages and could grow with the child. I have no idea who posted it and I can‘t remember the book box program. Does this sound familiar to anyone? When I went back to Litsy my thread had moved on. And I somehow erased the history/ cannot find it in Safari
thanks for any of your ideas!

tpixie @cathysaid it may have been the reading bug box! 6y
RainyDayReading There‘s also Owlcrate Jr that might be of interest. That‘s the first one that came into my head at least. 6y
tpixie @RainyDayReading thanks! ♥️📚♥️ 6y

I got my first #spearcraftbookbox today! I am so pleasantly surprised by it! The goodies inside were super cute and such good quality! Theme: Wicked Seas. 2 bookmarks, a Wicked sticker, Ursula pin, mermaid socks, mermaid cuff bracelet, a candle, mermaid magnet, adorable double sided art print and the book, Sea Witch by Sarah Henning, with signed bookplate and note. ❤

@wanderinglynn this is the Spearcraft book box subscription from cratejoy.com 😊

Thank you @Pennington.K for these great books and amazing treats! (I LOVE Biscoff but rarely get it so I screamed when I saw that.) The books you picked are exactly what I love, so excellent job! Btw, what do you call the turkey dish? The recipe sounds great, and I can't wait to try! #feedareader @MinDea @TricksyTails

Pennington.K Is it the taco pot pie? Lol sorry I didn‘t realize I didn‘t put it on there!! 6y
ferskner @Pennington.K Ahhhh that's it! That makes it sound better than Turkey Chili Pie, which is what I came up with. :) 6y

This was my first Owlcrate box and I‘m super impressed with everything inside! It came with a towel, woodmark, tea, mason jar mug, keychain, monthly themed pin, cactus pen, and a signed copy with an Owlcrate-exclusive cover of “From Twinkle, with Love” (the girl‘s shirt and the color behind the title‘s text are different). Not pictured a note from the author and newsletter. What an amazingly curated box! #owlcrate #bookbox #bookishmerch

jillannjohn This was my 1st box too. 6y
Merethebookgal @jillannjohn Nice! It was a great one, wasn‘t it? 6y

So I just watched a YouTube video of an unboxing from Novl and it was an AMAZING box! But you cannot buy a monthly subscription or whatever, you can only win it in a giveaway you have to enter each month to win that month's box. Or become an affiliate for that month. So! Sharing the link I have so you guys can enter to win a box! 😊😊

https://www.thenovl.com/novlbox/

knittedgnome Sounds amazing but the link won't work for me! 6y
InBooksILive Oh no really!? Try just going to https://www.thenovl.com/novlbox/ 6y
InBooksILive Changed the link in the blurb so it should work now for who ever wants to go to it 6y

Anyone here on Litsy ever get a box from #onceuponabookcase? I‘m thinking of trying out a box or two. Curious to hear if anyone has tried it. All the cases are so adorable!

underthebelljar @rubyslippersreads I think she sells that one separately in her Etsy shop! 7y

OMG! 😍😍😍

3 books I don‘t know (one makes me want to neglect all responsibility until I devour it) and a fourth that I bought as a discount ebook not long ago & now regret not getting a paper copy of because of how gorgeous it is. And the stuff! I‘ve been toying with getting Lit Chat! And burning my fingers with tiny matches as I get back into candles! And I used to always buy this calendar.

It‘s like @bookriot can see into my soul.

emilyhaldi Wow I don‘t know any of the books other than Pachinko! Will have to look into them 😁 7y
janeycanuck @emilyhaldi The Woman Next Door is the one I‘m most excited about. The blurb says it‘s about two older women in a ritzy Johannesburg community that become the best of frenemies and that it‘s like Golden Girls but woke. 7y
Mdargusch Looks like some great surprises! The woman next door sounds great! 7y
Jilljemmett Wow that's an awesome box!! I think I'll have to get it next year 7y

My @bookriot Best of 2017 book box has arrived!! Woo hoo! Will post the contents with a spoiler tag so as not to ruin the joy for anyone else getting one.

emilyhaldi That‘s a big box! 😱 dying to know what‘s in there.... @Mdargusch did you get this one? 7y
Mdargusch No!!! I did not know there was such a thing. Please explain? 7y
janeycanuck @emilyhaldi so good. So so so good. My personal value that I‘ll get from it way exceeds the price tag. 7y
janeycanuck @Mdargusch the last few years, Book Riot has put out a “best of” box with four surprise books and some bookish goodies. It‘s $100 dollars, no discounts (but my insiders code ended up applying to it so maybe that‘s an exception?) Super fun to buy, they aim for books that have flown under the radar. I love getting it every year. (edited) 7y

It‘s here! @bookriot has the Best of 2017 book box now in the store. I got the 2015 and 2016 boxes and loved both of them so I jumped on this right away. And, I got 25% off for being an Insider. What a good day to be me 😊

Thank you to everyone who recommended monthly box subscriptions to me. I decided to go with the Nocturnal Reader's Box and Book of the Month for now. Can't wait to get my first boxes! #botm #nocturnalreadersbox #horror #bookmail

DeeLew Yay! Love Book of the Month and I'm waiting on my first Nocturnal Readers Box! 📚📚📚☠️🎉☠️🎉☠️ 7y
JenlovesJT47 @DeeLew awesome! Does #botm come with any extras? The prices are very reasonable. I really want to get owlcrate but I don't think I can afford all three right now 😭 7y
MinDea No botm does not come with any extras. It is just the book (s) (up to 3 total...can add 2 more to your box for $9.99 each per month). They have botm swag you can add to your box but they aren't free... 7y
See All 16 Comments
DeeLew @JenlovesJT47 I've never gotten any extras in my BOTM other than a tote bag for signing up for 3 months at the beginning. They have awesome book selections though! 7y
JenlovesJT47 @MinDea @DeeLew thanks for the info! I'll stick with botm for at least a couple of months but I also really want to try owlcrate. Such a dilemma for a raging book nerd lol 🤓🤓🤓 7y
TricksyTails Woot! Woot! Yay! All of the NRBs have been awesome!! December looks likes it's going to be amazing!! Do you want your box to have books or be more about book merchandise? 7y
JenlovesJT47 @TricksyTails I like the concept of the NRB because I'm getting books I wouldn't normally pick up in the store, plus I really like all of the goodies. So I guess I'd like a good mixture of both. I wish I could buy them all! 😭 7y
TricksyTails That would be nice, wouldn't it? 😆 Have you checked out Page Habit? They send a book with annotations from the author. Not sure how many other goodies they send along. Owl Crate is primarily book merch and no books. Switching up the boxes every few months could be fun too! 7y
MinDea I think moat of these subscription boxes you can pause/skip a month, so you could sign up for them and turn them on/off and alternate....? 7y
GA_Bookworm07 Ive been wanting to do book boxes but im not sure what all is out here 7y
GA_Bookworm07 May do a post to get others opinions. 7y
JenlovesJT47 @MinDea that's a good idea! 7y
JenlovesJT47 @TricksyTails I did check out page habit and it looks very cool, but I had already signed up for botm and I wanted to try the NRB so I can start reading more horror books. 😱 7y
JenlovesJT47 @AvidBookWorm02 there's lots to choose from, I'll definitely post a review when I get my boxes. 7y
allureofbeauty I really want to get that one. 7y
JenlovesJT47 @allureofbeauty I'll let you know how it is, can't wait to get my first box! 7y
