Hi Munchworms!
Living in Belgium has both advantages and disadvantages when it comes to books – and especially shipping. But a little while ago, I got to discover a huge advantage! Celebrate Books!
As with other bookish box subscriptions, this is one that only ships to the Netherlands and Belgium. Imagine my big smile when I saw they were constructing a special Turtles All The Way Down box for John Green’s new release!
And, guys, the whole content is just amazing!
∞ So, of course, the hardback of Turtles All The Way Down by John Green!
∞ An amazing tote by Another View!
∞ A Paper Towns bookmark, also by Another View!
∞ An “Okay? Okay.”-note block by Zonenmaan!
∞ Magnetic bookmarks of The Fault in Our Stars by MagicBookmarks!
∞ An exclusive Tearjerker tea by Bookish Teas!
∞ A beautiful quotecard: “I fell in love the way you fall asleep: Slowly, and then all at once.”
∞ Last but not least, a t-shirt with the Turtles All The Way Down-cover on it!
Honestly, it was my first time buying one of their boxes, but now that I received this one.. I’m definitely keeping a closer eye on their English ones!
So excited to read Turtles all the way down. I will be receiving it by November first week. Love your blog posts. They have amazing.
Please take a look at my blog too.

I’m glad you found a good subscription box to try. It looks great. Last year I did Lit-Cube and Novel Tea Club for a while, and I’ve done OwlCrate for almost 6 months now.

They announced their new theme the day before yesterday and I jumped at it. I might have been throwing my money around a bit lately because November is giving me FairyLoot, OwlCrate and CelebrateBooks. Oh, and a little box with bookish candles and teas.
I might have to put myself on a box buying ban instead of a book buying one..
So jealous of that beautiful mug everybody got in this month’s OwlCrate by the way! I wish I could get my hands on one of those.

Wish I knew, haha. The box is named “Arabian nights”?
“A night full of stars, sand beneath your feet, exotic scents and a good love story. The English November box is all about Arabian Nights! In this box you will find a stunning hardback. The story is full of magic, friendship and love! Let the enchantment begin!”
“This box will include an exclusive candle of Nephilim Treasures and items of Darker Shade of Magic and The Wrath & The Dawn. This box will be filled with colourful must-have items for every booknerd.”

Ordered one, haha :’)
I checked if I could order two but apparently it’s only one per basket.. The site did mention something about “if you want to check shipping to other countries than Belgium or The Netherlands” to contact them? So if you ever see a box you like on there, you could always try that way 🙂

He sucks at it. We made a new agreement a while back about one of his stupid, annoying, frustrating habits I don’t agree with and my book buying addiction..
Every time he does HIS thing, I get to buy a book and vice versa.
Score right now:
I still get to buy seven books he has to pay for..
Nope, he definitely isn’t helping. :’D

he didn’t think! you need to make another deal, otherwise this will get out of control!
maybe do something like, every time he does his thing, he needs to pay something in you YALC jar 😉

Oh my. I can’t believe you’re able to wait that long, haha. I probably would’ve ordered it on BookDepository already if I were you. :’)
Hope you get to read it soon! 🙂

I am so jealous! That book box looks amazing 😀 I have been trying to find a good one to get in Canada but even the ones that are based in Canada charge you out the yin yang for shipping

I was soooo thrilled when I found this box. I’d heard of them before, but hadn’t noticed that they also have English boxes and than this one appeared. You can’t say no to that, haha!
Shipping always is a pain in the butt these days..
I hope you find some that don’t have ridiculous shipping..
