FairyLoot Unboxing - July - The Power Within



In this post I am unboxing the latest FairyLoot subscription box - the Power Within July box.




 
If you don't want to see what's inside then don't scroll down!


Here's what was in the box...




A Sweet Black Waves postcard and a sticker which features a line from Sky in the Deep by Adrienne Young. The sticker says "Ond Eldr" which means "Breathe Fire".




This exclusive Quidditch pen is from Team FairyLoot and is a mini broomstick! How cool is this!?


This room spray is from Geeky Clean and smells of lavender and books! It was inspired by Snow Like Ashes by Sara Raasch.






This print is of Zelie from Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi. It's by Diana Worak and is gorgeous!




This exclusive magical mug changes colour when it gets hot! It features a quote from Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes. It was designed by Little Inkling Designs.




This tea towel is exclusive and was designed by KDP Letters. It features a quote from And I Darken by Kiersten White. Unfortunately the print is back to front but FairyLoot are sending out replacements :)





The book was Heart of Thorns by Bree Barton and sounds like an awesome read. This edition is a FairyLoot exclusive and is signed by the author and has red sprayed pages. There is also a letter from the author and artwork of two characters in the novel, Mia and Quin, was was drawn by Noverantale.







Here's everything all together!


What do you think of the July box?
It's not one of my favourites but there are some cool items inside.

Wildest Dreams Unboxing - Love, YA





Wildest Dreams book box subsciption is a UK-based book box subscription that contains a YA book and several bookish goodies.


This month the theme was Love, YA.


Here's what was inside . . .




  
The book was Leah on the Offbeat by Becky Albertalli.
Leah was in Simon vs the Homosapien Agenda and this book deals with Leah struggling to tell her friends that she's bisexual.
The book also came with a bookmark.




This print features a quote from Leah on the Offbeat and was designed by @lost_in_a_story on Twitter.





The tea is inspired by Simon vs the Homosapien Agenda and is rich chocolate black tea. It is from Rosie Lea Tea.





There was also a packet of Oreos (yum!) and a candle from Taken Moons. The candle is vanilla cappucino scented (it smells amazing!) and was inspired by the upcoming novel What If It's Us? by Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera.




Here they are all together . . .







This is my favourite box so far!

I'm looking forward to seeing what's in the next box!

Wildest Dreams Unboxing - Female Voices




The May Wildest Dreams theme was Female Voices.



Here's what was inside . . .






 


 Along with a summary of the contents of the box, there was a pack of ginger biscuits.





 This month's tea was chamomile and lemongrass flavoured.
It was chosen by Holly Bourne and came with some Holly Bourne swag and five teabags.





How awesome is this Bone Season-inspired soap?!
I love the colours and the soap is dusky sloe and almond scented.
The Bone Season series by Samantha Shannon is one of my favourite series. 
This soap is so nice that I'm not sure I'll be able to bring myself to use it!




This is the first time I've guessed the book correctly, but I was very happy because I really want to read I Stop Somewhere. I nearly bought it a few weeks ago so it's a good job I didn't!
The themes and events that happen sound quite brutal so I don't think this book is one for the faint-hearted.
Along with the book there was a bookmark, a signed bookplate and a letter from the author.

FairyLoot Unboxing - Whimsical Journeys




The April FairyLoot theme was Whimsical Journeys.

Here's what was inside . . .








 

This Narnia reusable coffee cup was designed by Ink and Wonder.
I love all the colours!




The notepad features a quote from The Darkest Minds and was designed by Little Inkling Designs.

The Blackjack enamel pin features Blackjack, Percy's pegasus in the Percy Jackson books. It was designed by Taratjah.




This Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them-inspired luggage tag was designed by Lovely Owl Books.

There's also an Ace of Shades badge/button.




The fictional places art print was designed by Fictiontea Designs.

There's also a bookmark for The Fates Divide.




The tote bag features a quote from The Hobbit and was designed by Stella's Bookish Art.
I love this tote bag! I'm definitely going to use this!





This candle made by Flick The Wick is themed around the book of the month and smells of sandalwood. I'm not the biggest fan of the scent, as it reminds me of Lynx, but I like that it matches the book of the month.





The book of the month was Beyond a Darkened Shore by Jessica Leake. This copy has exclusive gold foiling and came with a letter from the author, a sticker and signed bookplate.
Beyond a Darkened Shore is a stand-alone and features Celtic and Norse mythology. I really like the sound of it.

Wildest Dreams Unboxing - Hocus Pocus


Wildest Dreams Unboxing!

Wildest Dreams is a UK-based YA book subscription box. 


This month the theme was Hocus Pocus!


Here's what was inside . . .

 








 The bath bomb is bubblegum scented, blue and pink. It is from Becky's Bath Bombs.
 The Border biscuits look yummy!




There were two choices of tea in the Hocus Pocus box. I got the Very Cherry one which sounds delicious!
It's from Rosie Lea Tea.




There's a The Witch's Tears bookmark and a The Witch's Blood postcard.





This month's book was The Witch's Blood (The Witch's Kiss, #3) by Katherine and Elizabeth Corr.
The book came with a signed bookplate and a letter from the authors.

Unfortunately, I read the first book when it came out and I didn't enjoy it, so I'm not bothered about reading The Witch's Blood.
I'll probably do a giveaway for it at some point.






Overall this was another lovely box, but I was slightly disappointed with the book. However, I'm excited to try the tea!
