Hushbug Book Box is a monthly subscription box featuring a newly released rom com book, a treat or snack, and 3-5 curated items that they think you’ll love. They kindly sent us this box for review.

Hushbug Book Box is one of my guilty little pleasures. It includes a new book, fun treats and some sort of goodie for me to enjoy whether it be a bath & body item, socks, stationery, etc…. It’s a monthly gift to myself and a reminder to slow down and set aside some time to read.

Book Lovers by Emily Henry

“Nora Stephens’ life is books – she’s read them all – and she is not that type of heroine. Not the plucky one, not the laidback dream girl, and especially not the sweetheart. In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby.

Which is why she agrees to go to Sunshine Falls, North Carolina for the month of August when Libby begs her for a sisters’ trip away – with visions of a small-town transformation for Nora, who she’s convinced needs to become the heroine in her own story. But instead of picnics in meadows, or run-ins with a handsome country doctor or bulging-forearmed bartender, Nora keeps bumping into Charlie Lastra, a bookish brooding editor from back in the city. It would be a meet-cute if not for the fact that they’ve met many times and it’s never been cute.

If Nora knows she’s not an ideal heroine, Charlie knows he’s nobody’s hero, but as they are thrown together again and again – in a series of coincidences no editor worth their salt would allow – what they discover might just unravel the carefully crafted stories they’ve written about themselves.”

Letter From Author: We also received a letter from the Author. These are a nice little addition to the box and fun to read.

Shakespurr Socks (Uptown Sox): Socks and books go together perfectly. I always picture myself cozied up in my favourite chair with my new book and comfy socks. It makes for a great reading experience.

Hushbug Book Box Pen: I always appreciate receiving pens because I can never have too many. And it goes with the next item perfectly……

Spring Florals Book Review Journal (Emily Cromwell Designs): This journal is super cute and a great way to keep track of the books you have read. Each page has a place for…..

Handmade Bookmark (Bird Marks): This is such a cute bookmark and unlike any I have received to date. I love that the colours match the book.

Colourful Binder Clip: A simple little item but the design is fun and it will definitely be a handy accessory to have in my office drawer.

Vegan Shark Attack (Squish Gummies): I love, love, love Squish gummies! They are vegan and they have the best flavours and shapes. These are actually shapped like little sharks, they are blueberry flavour and made with real fruit juice.

Refreshing Lemonade Mix (Gourmet Village): I love having fun beverage options on hand for when we have guests over, and this one will be perfect for entertaining on our patio.

Hushbug Book Box Review May 2022 – Final Thoughts

The May Hushbug Book Box is super fun, features a cute book and has a few hints of Summer. The book itself gets amazing reviews on Goodreads with reviewers saying that “Emily Henry has outdone herself”. I can’t wait to read it while sipping on some lemonade, snacking on some vegan gummies, decked out in my cozy new socks, sitting on the patio in the late evening sun…….oh my!
