Unboxing: February Uppercase Box

I was recently gifted a subscription to Uppercase Box, which is a YA-focused monthly subscription box featuring one signed new release and a few little bookish goodies. So far, I've been loving my boxes! My first one came last month and I was super impressed with the book choice and the quality of items, and when this month's box came I literally gasped.

February Book of the Month

This is one of my most anticipated reads of 2018! I almost bought this book the other day because I had ordered it for my library and for some reason it hadn't come in yet and I was dying to read it, so when I opened my Uppercase Box and found The Queen's Rising by Rebecca Ross inside, I died! And the edition included is beautiful; cover is gorgeous and the pages are all deckled edges and super thick, plus it's signed by the author. This is the kind of book that is worth subscribing over!

Other Goodies

This box also included an exclusive sticker to go along with the book (last month had a magnet; if I'm being honest, I prefer a magnet), plus a cute little notepad and, my favorite goodie included, a library-themed whole-bean coffee. I think that Uppercase Box definitely knows its' audience.

Overall Thoughts

So far, and I've checked out quite a few other subscription boxes, Uppercase Box has easily become my favorite. The book selections are consistently books that I want to read and would love to own, the extra goodies are always fun and useful, and the special features like author videos and book playlists that are available through their website make the reading experience a bit more exciting. I would 100% recommend subscribing if you like YA new releases but aren't sure which ones to buy, or if you are looking to gift a book lover. Shout out to my mom for getting this subscription for me during the holidays.

Did you subscribe this month? How do you feel about the selection?

Unboxing: March Ever After Box

I started subscribing to Ever After Box in February, and was very excited about this month's theme: Sexy Shifters! I haven't read a ton of paranormal or shifter romance, so I figured my odds were good for not receiving a book I already owned. Ever After Box is always romance-centric with a new theme every month. Each box contains at least two books, ebook download codes, and cute accessories that match the monthly theme. Details about what I received below the jump!

Unboxing: February Ever After Box

In my previous post on book subscription boxes, I mentioned the Ever After Box and thought I would share my most recent unboxing here! This box is romance-centric and includes two print books, download codes for ebooks, and cute extras and accessories that tie in to the monthly theme. You can pay by the box, or choose a subscription. I opted to buy the three month non-renewing subscription so I could get a good idea of what I would be getting every month and determine if I wanted to keep renewing. Keep reading to see what goodies I got in February!

Book Subscription Box Guide

Subscription boxes are everywhere these days: you can subscribe to have your wardrobe picked out for you, get shaving supplies, or even a monthly supply of condoms if you’re an extremely popular person. But, as a reader, I’m most excited about book subscription boxes! What I like about boxes like this is that it feels like you’re opening a present, instead of just spending more money on books (even though in reality you’re spending money on books). Plus, sometimes the boxes have exclusive content or are personalized in some way. So I thought I’d share with you a few options, and give the run-down on ones that I’ve tried.
