Through the Letterbox: Illumicrate May #7 Unboxing

Welcome to Through the Letterbox. Illumicrate is a quarterly subscription box, and this time its May #7. This is the first Illumicrate box I have received and I am so in love. I think this box is more suited to those who are not part of the book blogging community (but perhaps that’s because the two books I received I already had from the publishers). Or for someone who is on a budget or doesn’t want a monthly box. Illumicrate ticks all the boxed.   the box: In each box you can expect: One recently published  book, 3-5 goodies often related to the book, promotional items such as posters, bookmarks and a signed bookplate (whenever possible),  anddddddddd an Advanced Reader Copy of a highly anticipated book!! The box is £29.99 plus free shipping  (if UK based).  For international shipping, depending where you live its between  £4.99 – £13.99. But I can promise you that this box is well worth the price. the unboxing: A signed copy of Truth or Dare by Non Pratt, along with a letter from the author. […]
