Owlcrate October Unboxing

Lost in a Bookstore 
 
 
First up we have tea and a tea strainer 
 
  • If you've been on the hunt for the perfect tea for fall/winter, look no further! This delicious choco mint truffle tea from The Tea Spot is so soothing and yummy. Perfect for a chilly evening! 
  • Use your super cute exclusive tea strainer when you brew up your tea! Team Owlcrate created this silicone heart-shaped strainer just for you, with the help of designer Michelle Gray. 
  
 
 
  • Take your canvas clutch purse with you the next time you're on a trip to the bookstore. We created this pouch so that it was big enough to fit most small books, so you can protect your read on the go! Exclusively designed by the lovely Bookworm Boutique! 
I have to say that I really love the clutch purse and it's made out of sturdy material! ~ Mel 
 
 
 
 
  • Time to get cozy! Wear your awesome exclusive book nerd socks and show off your reader pride. Made by our friends at Out of Print and Underlined! 
  • What would the Mirror of Erised's reflection show if you gazed into it? We have a feeling for many of us it would be piles of books, and a letter to Hogwarts! Michelle Gray illustrated this adorable exclusive art print.  
  • Also in the picture is our monthly pin =)
 
 
 
 WE GOT TWO BOOKS THIS MONTH! 
 
  • Zuri has grown up in Brooklyn, and she has a lot of pride for where she's from. Lately though, she can't help but feel the ramifications that gentrification is having on the neighborhood she knows and loves. When a wealthy family moves in next door, Zuri wants nothing to do with their two teenage sons. But when her older sister starts to fall for one of the boys, Zuri works on finding common ground with them, and her initial judgements begin to shift. Pride by Ibi Zoboi is the Pride and Prejudice retelling we've been waiting for! We hop you love this exclusive signed edition, which comes with a letter from the author and a matching bookmark! 
 
 
 
I think the outside of the book and the inside covers are stunning ~ Mel 
 
  • At the end of the millennium, whoever holds the ancient scroll will be granted one wish from the great Kami Dragon. Yumeko, a kitsune shapeshifter, loses everything when a demon destroys the temple she calls home, as well as everyone she's ever known. She escapes with a piece of the treasured scroll, and embarks on a quest  to find the other missing pieces. Fate throws her into the path of Tatsumi, a demon slaying shadow warrior who's only mission is to find the scroll. . .and kill anyone who stands in his way. Shadow of the Fox is filled with incredible world building, Japanese folklore and culture, and the most unforgettable characters. This is also an exclusive signed edition, comes with a letter from the author Julie Kagawa, and a matching bookmark! 
 
   
 
Happy Reading!
