#Unboxing of Summer Lovin' @Owlcrate

Reviewed By: Jessica P. 

Publisher: Simon Pulse

Recommended Age: Young Adult 

Genre: Contemporary


This months box was themed Summer Lovin' and I have to say that I got this just in time because I was getting to leave for ALA and a mini vacation in New Orleans!


 So this was perfect timing!

This box had two amazing items in that we have never gotten before and this all around special book jacket was awesome!


So check out whats in this box in my video below as well as each item!
And thanks for checking out my post! As a general disclaimer I purchased this box.




About the Book:


Aspiring filmmaker and wallflower Twinkle Mehra has stories she wants to tell and universes she wants to explore, if only the world would listen. So when fellow film geek Sahil Roy approaches her to direct a movie for the upcoming Summer Festival, Twinkle is all over it. The chance to publicly showcase her voice as a director? Dream come true. The fact that it gets her closer to her longtime crush, Neil Roy—a.k.a. Sahil’s twin brother? Dream come true x 2.

When mystery man “N” begins emailing her, Twinkle is sure it’s Neil, finally ready to begin their happily-ever-after. The only slightly inconvenient problem is that, in the course of movie-making, she’s fallen madly in love with the irresistibly adorkable Sahil.

Twinkle soon realizes that resistance is futile: The romance she’s got is not the one she’s scripted. But will it be enough?

Told through the letters Twinkle writes to her favorite female filmmakers, From Twinkle, with Love navigates big truths about friendship, family, and the unexpected places love can find you.




   


About the Author: Sandhya Menon is the New York Times bestselling author of the smash-hit When Dimple Met Rishi and From Twinkle, with Love. She was born and raised in India on a steady diet of Bollywood movies and street food, and blames this upbringing for her obsession with happily-ever-afters, bad dance moves, and pani puri. Now she lives in Colorado, where she’s on a mission to (gently) coerce her husband and children watch all 3,220 Bollywood movies she claims as her favorite. Visit her online at SandhyaMenon.com.

Do I Recommend this box?: Yes

Notes and Opinions:  This box was one of the best that they have had. It's not the all-time best but it was still really good.  I could have lived without the wooden bookmark but that is the only thing in this box I didn't care for.  The rest of it was wonderful!  I am so excited that it seems that Owlcrate is going the distance and getting different items to send to us.  So instead of getting the same old same old were getting newer things. 


Go Into This One Knowing: I still think these boxes do far to many paper products and these wooden bookmarks still scare the crap out of me.  But it seems at least for this box they are doing better.
