I finally gave in and purchased an Owlcrate! I bought the month of May’s “Fight Like a Girl” box. When I saw the theme, I was already thinking about purchasing it. But then, they announced that there would be two books this month. I immediately jumped and splurged on this purchase for myself and for the blog. Yes, I bought the box for blog material! The perfect excuse.
Continuing on, buying the box was one thing, receiving it was another story entirely. I currently live in New York City. This means, the mailmen can’t just leave a package at your door. Apparently this also means they can’t deliver it to our apartment. After one Attempted Delivery I tried to reschedule. The next day, nothing. Not a word or an update on the tracking. I then took a trip to the post office and picked it up since our mail man is obviously lazier than life.
Now, I’m not going to go into detail to describe and review this whole box. We all already know this box is awesome! So just sit back and see the 8 items that came included in this box!
- An Enamel Pin of a book with a quote
- A bath bomb with the gorgeous scent of Witchhazel
- A small canvas print with a badass quote
- Sky in the Deep by Adrienne Young (Signed)
- A handwritten (copied) note from the author and a pin based on the book
- A colorful bookmark
- Catching Stars by Cayla Keenan
- A print of a girl who looks exactly like the cover of Catching Stars

Catch ya on the next page ;D

Overall a great box this month! The pin was the standout for me as well 🙂 (Haven’t actually read the book yet though.)

I love the pins and the canvas print! Seeing posts like this always makes me want to get a subscription box. I love your nail design by the way!

I dont buy subscription boxes often anymore due to money but this one seemed so worth it! I always peek at a few of the items and themes before purchasing even if it spoils the surprise

That pin is adorable. I always have to stop myself from buying more enamel pins because I don’t know how to use all the ones I have/want!!

Nice unboxing! I also decided to get a subscription box at the beginning of this year and went with Illumicrate as that one is only sent quarterly! I was so happy that the February box included 2 books and the May box (which I’m still waiting for) does too! 😀

Love this post. Everything looks amazing! ?
I have been wondering about subscribing to a “book box” but can’t decide which one. Do you receive any others, or are there particular ones you would recommend?

I have only subscribed to Owlcrate as a sub box and honestly I think it’s worth it only really if you like everything/most things in the box. Unless you’re looking to explore new books, then go all for this!

Hmm that’s true! I will probably keep looking into them until I find one that calls to me – plus, I have plenty of books that I still need to read already 😀
