UNBOXING | Illumicrate Collections: The Night Circus

 

I read The Night Circus last year and really fell in love with it, I really think it is such a magical book, so when Illumicrate announced their special edition for the tenth anniversary of the book, I was really excited to buy it. I am so happy with the book itself, and all of the wonderful items that came with it!

I really am so impressed with this box and everything in it, it is all so beautifully designed and each item is so unique and will be wonderful to own. I will definitely be putting the print and banner up in my room and making use of the book mark, tin and the teapot, the pin will look great as part of my pin collection. The book is a really stunning edition, especially under the cover, that will really be a treasure to have and read from. I think the teapot is definitely my favourite, it is just so gorgeous!

UNBOXING | Illumicrate Collections: Daughter of Smoke and Bone

Ever since I read and loved Laini Taylor's Strange the Dreamer, I have wanted to read her Daughter of Smoke and Bone series, and Illumicrate's tenth anniversary edition seemed the perfect way to start collecting the series and reading! It was a wonderful box to open up and I was delighted by every item.
