The Literary Book Club Review: Limited Edition Deluxe Summer Box

The Literary Book Club is a quarterly literary subscription box. Every quarter, they send you a gorgeous collectible edition of a classic book and thoughtful, curated gifts to make your experience magical. The gifts are wrapped and numbered with page numbers to open as you read. They kindly sent us this box for review.

The Literary Book Club is a beautiful quarterly book subscription that I have come to love. The books they feature a pretty enough to be on display (a lot of mine are) and the wrapped gifts are both beautiful and thoughtful. And……they even offer limited edition boxes from time to time……like the one we are looking at today!

Book: I Capture The Castle

“Through six turbulent months of 1934, 17-year-old Cassandra Mortmain keeps a journal, filling three notebooks with sharply funny yet poignant entries about her home, a ruined Suffolk castle, and her eccentric and penniless family. By the time the last diary shuts, there have been great changes in the Mortmain household, not the least of which is that Cassandra is deeply, hopelessly, in love.”

Swag Bag: We always receive a swag bag. It includes things like stickers, bookmarks, and bookplates. 

Art Print: Another item subscribers can expect to see in every box is a beautiful art print that ties to the book. Perfect for framing!

Enamel Bookmark: Here’s a fun little gift that wasn’t wrapped, which I am grateful for because it means we can use it as we read the book.

Page 185: On page 185 we got to open this Stencil Edge Journal. I am a HUGE fan of journaling as of late so this will come in handy.

While You Read: We always receive a gift to enjoy while we read. For the Summer box we received Wild Strawberry Sangria Mix. 

Page 46: On page 46 we have not one but 2 gifts to open. How fun is that! We received Lavender Honey Tea and a Garlic Herb Focaccia Baking Mix.

Page 155: On page 155 we got to open this beautiful Lavender Lemon Handmade Soap. This is an item I am always happy to receive. I like to have a selection of soap for our guest bath.

Page 259: On page 259 we got to open this pretty little book – The Language and Sentiment of Flowers. This would be a pretty coffee table book but would also make a great gift. 

Last Page: We always receive a gift to open when the last page has been read and for the Summer box our closing gift is this Tea at the Palace Cookbook. I absolutely LOVE recipe books, I could sit and look at them for hours on end. 

The Literary Book Club Review – Final Thoughts

The Literary Book Club is beautiful, thoughtful and fun to unbox. I think they did a lovely job with the Summer Limited Edition Box although I maybe would have liked to see one less book in the mix. Other than that I love that we received a food item to make, beverage, bath & body product and stationery. I love the book choice as well, it sounds like such a great read. I can’t wait to see if they release limited edition Halloween or Christmas boxes…..fingers crossed!
