Here are the contents of my #bookhookup box from The Strand.

I just paid for the one box. Probably won't subscribe for a whole year.

Does anyone subscribe to this??

I'm happy, but not over the moon.

Still worth running out to the mail in my robe and sweatpants though 😂

Ruthiella Subscription boxes for me are better in theory than in practice. In the long run it‘s better if I just buy/check out specifically the books I‘m interested in. 3y

jdiehr @Ruthiella You've hit the nail on the head! 3y

I was so excited to get my first subscription box from The Strand that I ran out to greet the postal carrier looking like this 😂

Dead Girls: Essays on Surviving an American Obsession | Alice Bolin

pick

Why is media so obsessed with the idea of female victims? Alice Bolin addresses this question in her though-provoking essay collection, Dead Girls. Yesterday's #writercrushwednesday book pick is intelligent, macabre, and even a little bit humorous. Grab a signed copy of Dead Girls: https://buff.ly/2IzTVEC •• #deadgirls #wcw #womenwriters

Twocougs So excited because this book is in the feminist book hookup from the Strand. Simply can‘t wait until it arrives! #strandbooks #bookhookup 6y

Speak No Evil | Uzodinma Iweala

My third #BookHookUp box from @strandbookstore and the best one yet!! A signed copy of the tagged book, one that‘s been TBR forever, coffee, a cute tote, buttons, and a cupcake. In a jar. I know right?!? I‘m so happy!!

@JenlovesJT47 I‘m not really a cat person, so do you want the tote? It has cats all over the back too. Happy to stick it in the next #LMPBC package if you like it ☺️😺

JenlovesJT47 Would love it if you don't want it! So cute! 💚 7y

mklong @JenlovesJT47 It‘s yours then! It is really cute, but I‘m crazy allergic to cats so it would be weird for me to carry it. Glad I found it a good home! 7y

Christine11 Speak No Evil is fantastic 😊 7y

JenlovesJT47 Awesome, thank you! 🤗💚 7y

mklong @Christine11 Good to know, thanks! It sounds great, so I‘m looking forward to it. 7y

vivastory I also was pleased with the Strand box. It's the best one since I joined. I loved Beasts of No Nation, so was thrilled to receive a signed copy of Speak No Evil 7y

Leftcoastzen That‘s nice. 7y

mklong @vivastory It will be a minute, probably mid-April, before I get to it, but any interest in a buddy read? And btw, be careful of the cupcake. It is lock your jaw sweet and like 85% icing! 7y

vivastory Thanks for the heads up on the cupcake! I might have to save it for later next week. I'm having drinks & Blarney Stone this weekend. I'd be interested in a buddy read. Tag me when you're ready to start. 7y

Young Radicals: In the War for American Ideals | Jeremy McCarter

pick

I got a signed copy of this book through #strand #bookhookup 📖 It's a fast-paced history of Progressive Era politics written in present tense. The subject matter heavy but the delivery is light!

Thanks @strandbookstore for my latest #bookhookup . It's the best one yet😍 #booksarelife #booksaremylife #booksmakemehappy

Hooked_on_books I got mine yesterday! Isn't it fabulous? 😍 8y

Twocougs @Hooked_on_books loving it but missing the New Yorker, the postcard and whatever it is in your picture that says New York. Gotta ask them about it. Love this book especially! 8y

BookMusings 😍😍😍😍😍 8y

Hooked_on_books @Twocougs Oh that's too bad. It's New York Magazine. The post card isn't really a post card but a NYM ad. 8y

MyNamesParadise I got that tote free bc I spent way more than $50...I never did post my book haul from there ahhh! This month has gone by soooo fast!! 8y
