FairyLoot - July 2020

About FairyLoot and my journey as a subscriber…

FairyLoot is a monthly subscription box based in the UK run by a small yet passionate team. The boxes focus solely on fantasy novels with a different theme each month. The boxes includes 5-6 carefully selected goodies along with a Young Adult or Young Adult crossover book.


I have been subscribed to FairyLoot since 2017 and my first ever box was their one year anniversary box. I remember opening that box and falling in love with it immediately. Over the years I’ve subscribed to other boxes provided by different companies and none have compared to the service that FairyLoot provides.


The customer service that is provided by them is above and beyond anything I’ve ever experienced and that is just the tip of what FairyLoot provides. Each month you can read along the book of the month with one of the members of the team and can discuss the chapters on their community page with other subscribers. It honestly makes you feel like part of a family and I love it.


The theme for July was Resilient Royals So let's have a look at what was inside!


Please be aware that from here there may be spoilers if you have not yet received your box!

The book of the month is Shielded by Kaylynn Flanders. This exclusive edition has an exclusive cover, sprayed edges and is signed by the author. We also received a beautiful author's note with artwork by @faeriereverie.

Synopsis The kingdom of Hálendi is in trouble. It's losing the war at its borders, and rumors of a new, deadlier threat on the horizon have surfaced. Princess Jennesara knows her skills on the battlefield would make her an asset and wants to help, but her father has other plans.


As the second-born heir to the throne, Jenna lacks the firstborn's--her brother's--magical abilities, so the king promises her hand in marriage to the prince of neighboring Turia in exchange for resources Hálendi needs. Jenna must leave behind everything she has ever known if she is to give her people a chance at peace.


Only, on the journey to reach her betrothed and new home, the royal caravan is ambushed, and Jenna realizes the rumors were wrong--the new threat is worse than anyone imagined. Now Jenna must decide if revealing a dangerous secret is worth the cost before it's too late--for her and for her entire kingdom.


My Thoughts on this month's box...

This box was so beautiful and it's one that I know all the items would be used.


Whilst I have yet to read Crescent City I am obsessed with how beautiful and bright this cushion cover is! It's stunning!


The candle smells AMAZING and honestly I wish I could do a scratch and sniff! Also the food tray is gorgeous and you can bet this is going to be featured in photos in the future!


I'm also really excited to read this book and I've heard amazing things about it!
