Hey there guys!!
Today I have a post up later than I usually do but it's for a very good reason!!
In the mail today I got my first ever subscription box! My Illumicrate box has arrived!! *does happy dance*
I don't know if many of you are familiar with what subscription boxes are, but they're this surprise treat that comes either monthly or bimonthly or every three months, with a theme and goodies related with that theme! There are all sorts, geeeky, movie based... and of course, book based!
I had never subscribed to one not for lack of wanting to, but because none of them ship to Spain, or do so at a reasonable shipping rate... BUT, all that changed when Illumicrate happened! It's UK based which means the shipping to Spain for once is SUPER affordable!! I signed up without a doubt and today my November box arrived!!
Yes, this means I'll stop blabbering and show off the photos of all my goodies, you impatient people, sheeesh! ;)
The box is really lovely and it has the logo and all, but the Spanish mail decided to put a gigantic sticker with my address on top of it (because the fact that the ladies behind Illumicrate had put the sticker at the bottom, so pretty pics could be taken to show off meant shite to them...) so sorry, no pics of the unopened box!
I have to say the attention to detail from the ladies behind Illumicrate is fantastic, seeing that made me grin! Thank you for all the love you've put into this Daphne!!
Now I need to unroll the poster properly so I can hang it somewhere because I had wanted a poster for all the Harry Potter books for my new apartment and I couldn't decide which one... and now I have this minimalistic book covers poster that I love!!
I couldn't be happier that I decided to subscribe to Illumicrate and I'm so very excited for my next box to come!!
If you're wondering if Illumicrate is for you or wondering how to sign up, go HERE and see how it works! They're currently SOLD OUT but you can sign up to get updates when they open for subscriptions again!

You can see the lovely logo and card (the contents of the box are detailed in the back of the card, as well as all the vendors in case we need more or their stuff!)

And here is my loot!! An UK copy of Wolf by Wolf by Ryan Graudin, a wonderful matching bookmark, a Hunger Games necklace (with one of my fave quotes), a "Books Before Looks" pocker mirros, a Six of Crows pin and that rolled up poster!
