✨Gorgeous romantasy book box ✨

Gorgeous romantasy book box with unique reads and thoughtful gifts ✨

If you’re looking for a Romantasy subscription book box, this is your one! I spent months looking for one, only to find they were either US based with extortionate shipping fees or the waitlist to join was miles long.

It must’ve been fate, because I am so glad I stumbled upon Bad Girls Books! Not only does each month contain an interesting book (with lots of 🌶️ , 18+ only, be warned), but you also get incredibly thoughtful trinkets to go along with the month’s book.

This month (May), I got an indie stand-alone in a Romantasy sub-genre I simply never would’ve picked up for myself, getting me out of my book comfort zone. Also in the box was a delightful wicker burning candle, a tasty mango lollipop - love heart shaped - and a stunning rose necklace, made of stainless steel too, so it won’t rust.

As someone who’s always been an avid reader but fell out of touch with the book world after uni and the start of my career, this book box is helping me discover my love for Romantasy all over again. Plus, it’s getting me to try new reads that I wouldn’t naturally gravitate to myself.

I couldn’t leave this review without mentioning how sweet the business owner is. Whenever I’ve spoken to her on instagram, she’s been nothing but lovely.

More still…she’s created group chats to allow people to discuss the monthly books or other books they’re reading. As someone who lives far away from my friends, it’s lovely to have a place I can go to chat with over bookish people! Just one other aspect that shows the time and care that’s gone into creating, not only a book box, but a community.

I’m so happy to finally have a monthly book box that is both interesting and thoughtful. I could not recommend enough!
