My thoughts:

I bought the Ultimate Box to receive the Darcy item. For some reason I hoped it would be a scarf. I do like the booksleeve, but the fabric has printed a little blurry and it can be hard to read.
I wouldn’t have considered Legolas for a box like this so that was a nice surprise and the candle smells great!
I still haven’t read Six of Crows…I am working on it! I started to, but I wasn’t in the mood to concentrate and it seems to me to be a concentrate type book.

I’m really into the pins! Still. I haven’t read this book yet but I do own it, I hear mixed reactions to it to be honest so I’m a little unsure about it.
Oh, I love Happyhelloart magnetic bookmarks! I have way too many and nowhere to put them! Some I put in the books others are just around, stick to the bookcases. I have a Harry Potter section I am looking forward to adding Sirius to!
I think I had an Anne of Green Gables audio book as a child. I remember some of the story but I know I’ve never read it. I’ve been resisting watching the Netflix show, but perhaps I should watch it.

PIRATES! I have mixed feelings about Jack Sparrow. I love the pirate, not impressed with the actor. But I do love Hook! And I really need to catch up with OUAT….
I haven’t read Eleanor and Park but this sticker has a nice sentiment.
This was meant to be a sticker, but there wasa printing issue. I’m happy about that, a print can be displayed in more places I’d say! I love Jamie Fraser and while I don’t plan to read any more books, I think he’s a great characer.
I read the first 2 books of The 100 and I watched the first series, but I’m very behind with this fandom so I’m not exactly sure who this is.
Bookmark! I still haven’t read ACOTAR all the way through – I’m not sure how I feel about Rysand. I’ve only read the first book. I’ve been told it will all make sense, but eh. This IS on my 52 goals in 52 weeks list though. I really need to tick some off because it’s March! The other side is Peeta from The Hunger Games whom I love, which I had forgotten so I chose the purple side for the photo because I like purple.
And the Print. Will Herondale. Another character from another book I’m yet to read. Why is there never enough time to read everything?! I’m looking forward to meeting Will though!

There was a lot in this box, but it doesn’t feel like there was as much as there used to be. I am pretty sure I’ve mentioned this before because I do that, but I did like the boxes where Alexis just threw in extra items because she felt like it and things were often double sided. It felt more artsy I suppose, like it had more creative freedom. I’m learning to come around to this new set up, I promise…
Next month is DUMBLEDORE and I will be back to the usual box.

I broke down the list into 2 sections, Lite, Nerdy Post and Ultimate. Each box includes the prior section too. I then ran from the bottom up while writing my comments – just in case it wasn’t obvious.
