Review: 
The theme of this box is Dark Magic, which intrigued me as I do love magic books. Then I noticed it mentioned a book sleeve and Harry Potter so I bought the box. Although not all the items in the box were useful to me, I still really appreciate this boxes items as majority of the items are actually really useful for a change.

First item was the tote bag inspired by the Grisha trilogy. I haven’t read this series but it was already on my to read list so I was glad to receive that. I love tote bags, I now have quite a few and use for all of them. They are just always really handy and roomy, I’ve decided to use this new one for when I go swimming. I liked the design of this bag, although I prefer the quote side to the faces side.

Next item was a cat shaped tea strainer which I found very cute. I don’t drink tea personally but my sister is a big cat fan and tea fan so she was thrilled with this item. I can admire its usefulness and cuteness. 

Another item that I can’t personally use is the philosopher's stone soap because of my eczema. I did however really love the look of it and the idea of it, it really suits being soap. This item I also gave to my sister but I’m not sure how good it is. 

I did however keep the little notebook for myself. I loved the cover of it as it is so sparkly and pretty. I like how the pages are blank (without lines) so you can draw or write in it. I love the design and I’m sure I can find some use for it at uni.

The book sleeve was probably my favourite item. I already have quite a few of these from FairyLoot now but I like this one the best because it’s much bigger, which is very useful when reading A Song of Ice and Fire series. My book fits in it so much easier now. I also like the design, I haven’t read the book but it still looks pretty and again I prefer the side with just the pattern rather than the faces.

The only non useful items was the pin and tarot cards. I do however enjoy collecting pins from these boxes so I put this pin on my pin flag which is now starting to look cool, still need a lot more though. The tarot cards don’t interest me too much as they are of a book series I haven’t read yet.
The book in this box was Nocturna by Maya Motayne. It has a very beautiful cover and is signed and sprayed with a lovely strong shade of blue. One of my favourites sprayed edges I’d say. I’m looking forward to reading this book, and reviewing it in the future.
Overall, despite having a couple of items that I personally can’t use, I’d still rate this box highly of 4 stars. If I could use scented soap and drank tea, I’d give it 5 stars. This box can be clearly seen as worth my money so I’m pleased with that.

Rating: 4 runes out of 5
