Thanks to @hannahreadstoomuch for this fantastic photo
Wow, what a week it’s been! Book Box Club HQ has seen a whirlwind of researching, reading, planning, (boring important paperwork) and most importantly preparing your November boxes to go out in the post!
Now though, it’s time to share with you all of the gorgeous goodies that we included in our October box! We were so excited to be able to create a FANTASY LANDS theme because we both have a weakness for a good old-fashioned fantastical adventure story and the the featured read at the centre of this box, is so much more than that! As soon as we heard those magical words “Narnia Vibes” – we were both sold and we knew we had to share this brilliant book with our unashamedly bookish members.
So without further ado… bring on the unboxing!
The Light Between Worlds by Laura Weymouth: Prepare to be transported to an enchanted world teeming with myth, legend and magical creatures! Evie, Phillipa and Jamie are whisked away from wartime London to live like royals in a dream world. But their adventures in fantasy land cannot last forever and soon life back in the real world will lead them to question everything they thought they knew about themselves and each other…
