River Song knows the situation.
This is an UN-BOXING post.

We like stuff.
We LOVE book stuff like BOOK BOXES!
Join us on Sundays where we’re just bursting with excitement as we show off our new book stuff!
Please link back to our blog if you too are a lover of showing off stuff on Sundays.
Thank you!

MARK THE PAGE is a monthly Australian based book  box. Each box contains a newly released book and between 3 and 6 bookish things. They often have special, themed boxes centred around a high profile book. You will get that book and 7 bookish items that fit in with the theme.
As of posting there are TWO on their website – Tower of Dawn by Sarah J Maas and Godsgrave by Jay Kristoff.
MONTHLY BOXES are roughly £25 and SPECIAL BOXES are around £31. Postage to the UK costs £25.

My thoughts:

I wasn’t as excited about this box as I was for the ACOWAR box, possibly because I haven’t heard of the book before and most of the items are not from fandom’s I’m part of. Still, I’m currently reading both The Bone Season AND Throne of Glass, so perhaps I’ll get more excited about this box retrospectively.

REALLY looking forward to understanding the mug!
TJ Lubrano’s work is always beautiful and I’m looking forward to finding out who this person is. Of course, to me, this will be exactly how she looks now.

I’m up to scratch with Game of Thrones however, if not A Song of Ice and Fire, so those items are pretty exciting!

This book sounds really interesting. It’s not one I’ve seen around and while family fights aren’t may favourite at all, I’ll hold out hope that they’ll stick together and read it!

I think that these monthly boxes cost a lot when you add the shipping and I’m not intending to get them with any regularity. I do however have orders for the next two special boxes and I can’t wait for them! Both are coming in September.
