I heard that Martha Wells has an issue with signing like her hands are having painful issues but she tried to sign all the books anyone. Very nice of her if that's the case.

[@racheldoxey8728]

Martha Wells has severe tendinitis which is why her signature looks like that. She very kindly signed the books which she didn’t have to do . She suffers with a lot of pain.

[@AnaElwynn]

Fairy Loot has seriously the most gorgeous editions 😍

[@jessicabridges4335]

Man Brie needs a Bark Box to open! 😆 She loves unboxing's ❤ Love the books! 🥰

[@elise.thebookworm]

Yes!!😂

[@ReadingNymph]

Oh Fairyloot did pull out all the stops this time, though love the plant pot 🪴

[@marliscan]

I absolutely love your puppy, she is sooooooo cute!!! Happy Reading

[@CoverswithCassidy]

The fairyloot CC set is stunning

[@ellyra412]

I'm not one for contemporary romance but that cover redesign from afterlife is gorgeous. About the Illumicrate VS Fairyloot mythology boxes : Fairyloot has probably by far the better book (but not mythology related so uh ??) but Illumicrate had by far the best items and the box made more sense. The Crescent City set by Fairyloot is definitely the better one too. I enjoyed the Illumicrate May box too (especially the flower pot !)

[@Bookbonkers8439]

Read The Soulmate Equation before you read The True Love Experiment! I love your unboxing videos!!

[@ReaderRae]

The tote bag and the metal bookmark are so pretty😭 I think my fave edition is the Christina Lauren book just because it's so much prettier than the original😂

[@Sarah.reads.sometimes]

The Lunar Chronicles 😍 Those are some of my all time favorite books. They will forever be in my top books ❤

[@CoralTheWitch2023]

Love the CC Fairyloot editions!

[@nina_reads6015]

The Lunar Chronicles edition is so gorgeous, can’t wait for mine to arrive 😍😍 I’m definitely due for a reread tho

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

Ong in love with the purple true love experiment!!!

[@PaperbackPotions]

I wish I would subscribe to fairyloot but honestly the shipping fees just stop me lol😪... ALSO UR DOG OMG the cutest

[@caffeinatedsanity]

That cc edition 😍😍😍

[@amyfrosty]

November 2021 and they’ve just been delivered?!

[@the_green_knitwitch]

The CC set is 🔥🔥🔥

[@leahharlann]

oh man, I kind of really regret not picking up the Lunar Chronicles set now because THE ENDPAPER ART 😭😭😭

[@jenny_readss]

I'm running a readalong for Curse of Saints with Tandem Collective, its a great read!

[@eprohoda]

fantastic .. Becca. 😉

[@knottyneedle]

If you can, do the audio books for the Murderbot series. Murderbot is so snarky it works well with audio.

[@jbrose40]

And Kevin R. Free is an amazing narrator!

[@loveliz432]

I love these unboxing since I can’t seem to get a subscription to any of them

[@cleg78]

Love love LOVE the unboxing video’s 🤗🤗🤗

[@cleg78]

Be careful with the Martha Wells book, I don’t think it will be your thing. I hope it is but I just have a feeling you may have a wtf moment

[@cleg78]

The adult FairyLoot book the best thing they done for that book was change the book cover as the original is awful and a book I would walk past. The hardcover underneath is stunning too. Cracking job FairyLoot

[@cleg78]

I have to say with the Sarah J Maas special editions a different booktuber showed both sets and with the Illumicrate set they showed the page inlays and because I haven’t read the second book yet…damn did I get spoilt when the inlays were shown in place 🫢

[@chloep5230]

I love these videos so much😍 You should try out fabled, their books are so gorgeous

[@Lifeonasofa]

I have the same thoughts about crescent city. Buying every edition available because HOEAB is my favourite but I REALLY hope Maas is going somewhere good - cuz HOSAB didn’t hit for me! IC had a very strong item month, the plant pot is so cute. I skipped as the book didn’t appeal but I love the endpapers so 👏🏻 Nice to see some higher quality items from FL but mythology is very specific and not my thing. With only one of the items being bookish, it was a bit of a meh box for me. THE BOOK THOUGH! So STUNNING! So happy with the edges 😍 much prefer to the original design. Can’t wait to get a book only invite. The adult FL as always, beautiful! ADORE THE ARTIST! Defo an upgraded cover.

[@user-og2nb1sc7r]

Do you have a video where you talk about your thoughts on HOSAB? Would love to hear your opinions on it

[@marek3505]

with Martha Wells, her fantasy books and her Murderbot novellas are very different. If you dont like her fantasy I would still give Murderbot a chance.

[@LibrarianofParis]

You look gorgeous!!

[@jenniferjohansson9523]

Hahaahha yes, I laughed out load when I saw Martha Whells very small signature. I would've prefered some cover change instead of that.

[@samarycastro]

You just got a new subscriber!! I was loving the video already but once you said you wanted to reread The Vampire Academy series I knew I had to subscribe!! Lol I’ll definitely be checking out more of your videos! ❤ also ALL of those books looked amazing and beautiful! 😍😍 also seems like you doggy is a big fan of books as well! 😂 so adorable! 🥰

[@BeccaandTheBooks]

Welcome to the channel! Thanks for joining me ❤️

[@sakurahan91]

I love that Lunar Chronicles set! I own the US hardcovers, though, which I love! Did Fairest come with the set???

[@MatthewCarterliquidsoulbook]

I’m so sad the locked library does’t ship to the US

[@chadreadsrom]

I loved divine rivals and this colourway for fairyloot is better than the original 💯

[@MeMyshelfAndI]

FYI Witch King and Murderbot are the same author, but you'd never be able to tell. So I wouldn't use it as a litmus test for Martha Wells. (Also the Witch King audiobook is getting very bad reviews, but the physical book seems to be getting good reviews, though also people seem to find it confusing and go back to re-read bits, based on all the reviews I've seen.)

[@MeMyshelfAndI]

Martha Wells's signature is like that because of tendonitis :)

[@BeccaandTheBooks]

Ooh thanks for letting me know!
