Questions
Q: Is it possible to purchase past boxes?Asked by Jane P., July 2020
Q: Is it possible to change the address once the subscription is made? I am planning to move before the second box would ship and want to know if I should just wait or if it easily changed.Asked by Cadence E., March 2021
Q: Do you work with independent authors to consider their books for possible inclusion in a future crate?Asked by Don G., December 2020
We work with 6 different publishers but do not work directly with authors.
We go through the publisher and they reach out to the agent who speaks with
the author.
Thank you,
Team Magical Reads Crate
Q: Is this appropriate for a 14 year old girl? It says YA for the books, but then other gifts are for adults? Asked by Jennifer H., December 2020
Our book age is 14+ they are all young adult books included. The gifts are
more for young adults. I would not say they are inappropriate for a 14
year old. We included one drink vessel (small tall glass) in the past but
have no plans to include another one any time soon. Thank you and stay
magical

I was hesitant after I bought this box that I was going to get cheap plastic trinkets or things like that but this box was beautifully done and really made my day. I just opened it up ten minutes ago and had to come to post a review I was so impressed! The theme was wonderful and since I’m binge watching OUAT right now it was wonderfully serendipitous. I adore the bookmark if I had to pick a favorite item. I can’t wait to set some fun money aside and get me another box. 🥰

Ordered this as a gift for my 17 year old daughter. An avid reader and lover of alone time. One of the best gifts I have ever given her! She has loved every box to date (3 so far), particularly the one with Rosie the riveter socks! She gets excited with each arrival, reads every book and loves the different self care items, etc she has received. 1000% worth the money! Thank you!

Thank you and we are so glad she is enjoying the books and self care items! Please pass on our thanks to your amazing bookworm. -Team Magical Reads Crate

Mediocre, lots of consumables

This box was very similar to another book box that I subscribe too that has more/slightly better products and costs a little less. The packaging was ok, looked thrown together. The items contained were more consumable such as drink mix, lotion, lip scrub, bath bombs vs other boxes that have items like bookmarks, cutlery, jewelry. The items were handmade. The consumables were nice but didn't list allergies and I have allergies ingredients (consumed and topical) so it wasn't the ideal box for me. I wouldn't likely purchase this in the future, there are better subscription boxes out there.

Hello, for ingredients and allergies information please send an email to us and we can supply a list each month. The body butter and lip scrub both had ingredients listed in box. Our box regularly included handmade items from Etsy shops and luxury self care items along with a fun new read. We include a mix of manufactured and Etsy shop items.
This box contained:
set of 2 Teas (manufactured organic tea)
A bracelet (jewelry item, manufactured not homemade)
A bookmark (manufactured from an artist, not homemade)
A fabric face mask (wearable, health item, manufactured not homemade)
2 luxury bath bombs (manufactured not homemade , ingredients available just send email)
