December Book Unboxings! Illumicrate, Fairyloot, Goldsboro, Special Editions + More! 2022 

Dear Becca, we don’t mind the nose. We want more of the nose. Please show us the dog 😂

Honestly Bri makes the video I love seeing her little nose smell everything in the corner 😂

in the illumicrate calendar, December is definitely from Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik

I love your fur baby wanting to sniff everything. So cute

This was my last Illumicrate box, been a sub for almost 3 years but really feel like the quality has gone down, especially with the removal of the mogs and the replacement being a papercraft kit. Hopefully I don't miss out on amazing books this year and a sudden increase in quality 😂

I just finished my first Tchaikovsky, the novella Elder Race and loved it! Can't wait to hear what you think of City of Last Chances :)

OMG BRIE 😢🥰 her when she’s looking down at you just cutieeeee

Although I haven't read Song of Archillies yet I really liked the mug, I loved the customisation on the IC book and I'm looking forward to reading it. I am so sad that I don't get the FL Adult box as that book is stunning. I really liked the FL bookends, they are currently holding up my Christmas book haul, I like the booksleeve but I don't use them all that often I rather a book jacket, I loved the new cover on the book it is so much better than the original cover and sounds like it will be a really good read.

The Fairyloot YA box was a great box as all the items were useful. My favourite item of the box is the bookends. They are really pretty and I am just about to order a new bookshelf, so these will be really handy to have.

Illumicrate calendar: November I think is Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater.

Never too much snout ❤ I live with 3 ❤❤❤

Brie’s nose made me snort laugh every time! 😂😂

I need to get Hell Bent. I’m in the UK as well!

Illumicrate’s December box is delayed (but shipping soon) for US customers. And I don’t mind but seeing that there is a calendar already nearly three months in is 😂 still excited and it’s still gorgeous!

I love the cute nose

😂😂oh I ca sooo relate to the doggy help in unpacking packages. I have two little furry heads and noses shoved into any parcels I get delivered. Also the ‘I love you, now piss off’ 😂 I say the exact same thing 😂

Ok I know nothing about that book but the goldsboro edition probably has the best sprayed edges I've ever seen...

I like the Caraval book sleeve. The Red Scholar's Wake, Cruel Illusions and Emily Wilde look interesting.

That FL YA book is absolutely gorgeous… illumicrates US is behind so I haven’t even gotten my November box.. but I loved the calendar.

Wow, you receive a Waterstones book on the release day and I’m still waiting for a book I ordered in July 😭 All I’m getting from them is “sorry, we are still recovering from our warehouse software change issues” 😩

I love the sniffy dog!

I am on the waiting list for some sub boxes. Just waiting patiently for my subscription 😗

PET THE DOG! SHE WANTS LOVE! Adorable doggo!

I was kinda disappointed that adult fairy loot book says a complete illustrated on the cover but no illustrations inside

We have a lot of Adrian Tchaikovsky books at work, I’ve never read any of them, but I can’t say I’ve ever seen them go out either 😅

Glad I'm not the only one that hates the Hell bent cover 😅 I ordered the Illumicrate edition yesterday because it's better

I also really hate the normal Hell Bent cover. Love the jewelry box the most.

Is it bad that i seriously want to read 90% of these books and 90% of them i had never heard of before!

Didn't receive my Waterstones special edition of Hell Bent today 😩

gonna save those codes for later, waiting on the list very patiently lol

My fairyloot box hasn't even shipped 😩

Waterstones have really chapped my arse as they dispatched my copy of Hell Bent late, not happy. The Adrian Tchaikovsky book looks bloody fantastic and I love his writing so so much. If you don’t like it and want a buyer give me a nudge lol

Love the puppy nose! I think the picture in the calendar with the girl with pink hair is Dani and Zafir from Take a Hint Dani Brown!

Is that plastic wrap on the GSFF books removable? I personally hate having that on it

Cheeeeeessssseeee 🧀

Hell bent is soo good!

I LOVE a good bookend.

What da dog doin’

“I love ya, now piss off” 😂😂🥲
