December OwlCrate Review
Hello, all!
I'm always freezing, so these Serpent & Dove inspired leg warmers are going to come in handy. These were designed by @paperbackbones, and I like how the only bookish part of these are the buttons, so even if you're not the biggest fan of the book, you can still get use out of these.
I've said before that I'm not a fan of woodsy scents, so I found this Of Fire and Stars inspired hand creme by Fiction Bath Company to be slightly too strong, but I do like the packaging.
I love how OwlCrate adds in these wooden ornaments by Juniper and Ivy Designs every year! This one was inspired by The Wrath and the Dawn, which I've never read, but I still really like this and I'm excited to add it to my collection.
I've been getting more into puzzles during this year, so now I can add this one designed by Tiara L'Hommedieu with characters from An Ember in the Ashes into my rotation as well!
I don't know about you all, but I tend to bake a lot more during the holidays, so this little rolling pin designed by Michelle Gray was fun to get. The etchings are inspired by Spinning Silver which I haven't read that so I'm not entirely sure what they're supposed to be, but it's cute nonetheless.
The book this month was These Violent Delights by Chloe Gong. This is a retelling of Romeo and Juliet set in 1920s Shanghai, so it's filled with rival gangs, star-crossed lovers...and monsters? I've heard a lot of hype around this, so I'm interested to see how it plays out.
The theme for this month was "Love is a Battlefield" and let's get right into it.

This edition also came with this beautiful artwork on the reverse of the dust jacket which was a really nice touch.
