LitJoy Crate November Review
Hello, all!
This months theme was Fortune and Folklore, so let's jump right in!
So, the first thing I pulled out was this little Forbidden Forest candle by Nerdy Alchemy. It has a deep, woodsy pine smell, pretty much exactly how I picture the forest at Hogwarts to smell like. I'm actually not a fan of pine, so I'll probably be passing this along, but I do like the design on the label.
The next thing was this lovely Celtic inspired pouch designed by Eden Cooke. Being Irish, I'm super into Celtic folklore, so this was really neat to get. It's super pretty and a decent size as well, so that's always a plus.
Next was my favorite item this month: a Professor Trelawney bookmark designed by Ink and Wonder. I love Ink and Wonder bookmarks; they're always so detailed and lovely, and even though they're made out of wood, they're very sturdy and durable. I have a few of these now and I'm always so pumped when I get another.
I'm a huge fan of the A Court of Thorns and Roses series by Sarah J. Maas and this Feyre print by Tiara L'Hommediue is super pretty. It kinda gives me Renaissance painting vibes, but I dig it.
The book this month is one I've been looking forward to, and it's The Wren Hunt by Mary Watson. This story follows Wren, who's people-- the Augers-- were once ruled by an ancient magic, but now are controlled by the Judges, who are set on destroying the Augers for good. In a desperate attempt to save her family, Wren takes on a dangerous undercover mission posing as an intern to the same people who want her dead. While there, Wren must do all she can to uncover the truth without becoming wrapped up in lies, deceit and betrayal that threaten to consume her and reveal who she truly is.

I should purchase this box at least once, this sounds like something I would like.
