HUGE book haul 📦📚 NEW special edition book haul

[@esmayrosalyne]

omg but don't mind me drooling over all of these ridiculously stunning editions 🤤😍 especially the Blood Mercy and Flame and Sparrow ones... should be illegal lol

[@CoverswithCassidy]

the drool over both of those is so real though

[@AmandasBooktopia]

So many stunning books! I hope you love them all.

[@KristinKravesBooks]

That edition of Serpents is definitely disappointing, especially the artwork on the back!

[@CoverswithCassidy]

right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Jonathan-B_]

So many editions!

[@SuperSweetfrog]

So bookish box thought getting help with a warehouse to help get the boxes out would be best but that's not what happened. Now they are going back to being a small shipping company. If you go to their website and click on shipping updates, it's on there and when boxes are shipping. I only buy the books I like from them and some merchandise so I understand what you are talking about.

[@CoverswithCassidy]

yes, they do that, but fabled has sent us updates on exactly what has gone wrong, timeline updates, they halted production of other editions outside of the box in order to get caught up! imo bookish doesn't care

[@SuperSweetfrog]

@@CoverswithCassidy it's all about money.

[@CoverswithCassidy]

@@SuperSweetfrog this is true but doesn't change my opinion on them

[@SuperSweetfrog]

@@CoverswithCassidy I don't blame you at all. Kinda of why I only buy the ones I want and not join their book subscriptions.

Hello there hey there hey Hello hi hello hey there

I tried Bookish Box last Jan-april (2023) and they were still behind schedule. And one book I received had the spine rip off when I opened the cover. Also turned out to be not a fan of the books they chose. :(

[@caitcoy]

Whoa that Blood Mercy edition is gorgeous! Hadn't heard of some of those sub boxes but definitely some pretty editions

[@natcommon]

So many pretty books! I think the prettiest one is the special Flame and Sparrow and the special Blood Mercy.

[@CoverswithCassidy]

I agree with theseeeeeeeeee

[@strawberrylime33]

Bully romance isn't something I've heard of, what does it mean in the booktok world? A man who treats the fmc really badly?

[@CoverswithCassidy]

Yes essentially. They typically bully her a lil bit

[@MariaMightReadThat]

Flame and Sparrow is such a showstopper 😍 I didn't realize Arcane did two books each time

[@MariaMightReadThat]

Also I'm with Mel and now have regrets about not getting that edition of Beneath Black Sails

[@CoverswithCassidy]

RIGHT ABOUT FLAME! yeah you get the first two in a series which is so fun imo!!!! hahahah it very pretty

[@Chopperchicjones]

Broken Bonds is not a giggle good time book. There are many triggers in it including assault and r word. It’s a reverse harem as well. It’s a great series and I ate it up but it is dark!

[@CoverswithCassidy]

I think for me a fun time giggle read is just a bingeable series, I've read plenty of dark books that fall into this category!

[@CoverswithCassidy]

Something that isn't epic fantasy slow world building 900 pages

[@tierajade]

I'm now 100% going to Apollycon next year & excited to meet a booktube friend in person (she's keeping a tracker for the second when tickets go on sale, lol)! 😂 Those books with art are GORGEOUS! 😍 Yeah - Bookish Box got cancelled when they were 6 months behind and we moved and they said they couldn't update the shipping of the boxes when they go out so I would have to drive back to the old address to get my box for 2 months! 🤬 Hope you like the Cruel Prince trilogy - very YA but I enjoyed it and plan on continuing in the Elfhame world. 💖 We ❤ you, Cassidy! 🤗

[@BecxReadz]

When the Moon Hatched was so meh. I liked some of it but I was bored by a lot of it too

[@stellataneva7012]

The Blood Mercy edition!!!😍🥰

[@dg_reads]

fun how they did that prequel novellas bindup! love a good haul!!

[@CoverswithCassidy]

yeah I love that it flips!

[@laureno3934]

I love Fabled so much I have been with the since the start (I love having an aussie sub box) and the growth that they have had has been incredible and they are super transparent and you can tell they are just as gutted about the delays as we are

[@CoverswithCassidy]

They seem like a really good company

[@bridgit2541]

Are books at Apolycon full price or is there a convention discount?

[@CoverswithCassidy]

they were full price

[@Mkayreadsandvlogs]

I only sub to book of the month. I love BOTM 😊

[@CoverswithCassidy]

a lot of people do!!!

[@juliacash8135]

Does the book an heir comes to rise have much spice in it? I’m ok with 2/5 spice or if it’s like throne of glass or less if you’ve read that.

[@chelleyrenee]

It gets spicer later but i think 1 maybe 1 scene in book 1. It’s very similar to TOG

[@juliacash8135]

@@chelleyrenee thanks for letting me know!
