Sent as gift for my niece. She received today, which was perfect because it is her birthday! The package came beautifully wrapped as described with a lovely bag of tea, book, book marker and description of book. So nice. I’m glad I selected the 6-month plan.

The book arrived in good condition. The coffee that I received was also a great touch to the overall experience. There is a post strike going on in the UK so I will not rate shipping at this time since this issue was unrelated to the company. Satisfied with the experience.

Came in 8 days, excellent quality for the book and tea, love the book cover and love the tea. Definitely recommend.
Costed more then what it said but I'm guessing that's cuz it's shipped from the UK and I'm in Canada. So the shipping can cost more if ur in a different part of the world.

Okay, so when I re-ordered this and got the first book that was the same, I was very disappointed, but it is only the first book that was the same, 2nd book was different. I think this is a very nice set of items a book, bookmark, and some tea. Thank you

So sorry you are disappointed we can certainly swap the book for you and you can choose one of our current titles.
Our welcome pack book is always the same title then the following months of the subscription are new ones so will not be duplicates.

I love Jane Austen. Great choice!

Was so very excited to receive my first Bookishly Box! I love the book selection and sleeve design, along with the book mark and tea! I only wish it hadn’t taken so long to get to me, as I live in the U.S., however, it was worth the wait! I love this box and I’m excitedly anticipating the arrival of my next box! ☺️

My box took a while to arrive (with it shipping overseas it’s understandable) but it was well worth the wait! The packaging was very cute and neat. I could totally see myself getting this box again.

Pretty Ugly Lies

Review of Pretty Ugly Lies
by Pamela Crane
Pamela Crane has written another awesome book.
This one is a departure from the traditional mystery in that it begins typically enough with a murder and an unknown perpetrator; however, as you read further, the murder will be nearly forgotten.
You will instead be caught up in the frustration, hopefulness, despair and reconciliation, order and disorder of the characters as they struggle through their lives.
Then, POW! the mystery is back and we know who committed the murder and why.
To say that this story is multifaceted is an understatement. To say that it is a darn good tale is an understated truth.

History at hand!

I love this subscription so much! The stationary was an afterthought for me- I was after the tea and the book, but I have come to cherish it as much as the others. They are beautiful, and I have made use of every piece I've received. I've had this subscription a year now, and never received the same piece of stationary twice! The tea has been excellent to be able to carry a high quality bag tea with for those work breaks or travel excursions, and has delicious, unique flavors. The book arrives beautifully wrapped, with a different bookmark each month. And they are vintage books, for sure! Some are in perfect condition, but some are very well loved. I've actually treasured my well loved ones even more than the perfect conditions- most often a penguin collection, but any type may show up, and often with intriguing looks into the lives of the times the book was published (canned dog food was discontinued during WWII- did you know?). This subscription has far surpassed any other book box I've tried!

I was receiving this box for about half a year and was delighted. I received some not-so-famous books of well known authors, and it was a whole new world for me.
The stationery was cute, and I used it several times as a gift. It looks unique but not too strange.
And of course the tea. It is really great, they have so much different flavors. Personally, I loved the Christmas blend that I received last year, it was rooibos based (if I am not mistaken), but when drinking it was not so much about rooibos, just really Christmasish :)

I was very glad to receive this box. I got the book, the bookmark *which I adore*, the notepad and the tea *it`s very tasty*. I am not planning to continue my subscription because I totally missed that the books are not new. But it`s my fault, so I should be more attentive in future.

My 2nd Bookishly Tea box arrived today & I'm delighted again. I'm intrigued by both months' books & am midway through #1. Neither are books I would have selected on my own & I'm thoroughly happy with each. Matching stationery & book mark (with literary quotes) are great. Tea is delicious. Thanks so much!

I just received my first subscription and it's quite wonderful. I adore the stationary, I can't wait to try the tea and the book, while I am unfamiliar with it (The Angel in the Corner by Monica Dickens) I look forward to starting. The book is in excellent condition. The edition, printed in the 1950s, is yellowed in all the right places but there are no rips to be found. All in all, I highly recommended this subscription box to my friends and I know of at least one who quickly went and signed up. Thank you Bookishly and I look forward to receiving more goodies from you!!!

I am so so impressed with this box. The price was completely fair and the items included were of good quality. Sometimes the pictures make the subscription seem like it will be fancier than it is, but in this case everything was just as adorable as I hoped it would be. Random, but wonderful, vintage book. Adorable stationary. Nice bookmark. Delicious bag of tea. And I appreciated that the book wasn't just covered in tissue, but actually individually wrapped in nice wrapping paper. Really felt like I was receiving a gift. Will definitely order again in the future.

I received my first box today and was beyond excited when I got home from work and saw it! I was nervous that it might not live up to my expectations, but I had absolutely nothing to worry about! I chose the tea option and received a nice type of black tea. There were also several postcards with some of my favorite books and a cute bookmark. The book itself was "Rebecca" by Daphne du Maurier (which I sadly have never read but am starting right now). It was a little worn but well loved and so beautifully wrapped I almost didn't want to open it. This box is perfect and I love it!

After receiving my first package I was absolutely overjoyed! The book that arrived was a beautiful vintage copy of Richard Keverne's novel "Carteret's Cure". It was a bit battered, with fragile yellowed pages and a taped together spine, but that's why I love it! All of the stationary was lovely from what the book was wrapped in to the set of postcards. A great monthly treat 5/5.
