    Page & Wick #9: July 2025

    My Page & Wick box for July was heavily delayed. And this time it wasn’t the fault of the couriers, but due to problems at Page & Wick themselves. I didn’t follow the updates all that closely, but apparently there were issues with the printers, followed by a failed quality check, which in the end resulted in a delay of…

    Page & Wick #8: May 2025

    My May box of Page & Wick arrived in early June. This time, it wasn’t a brand-new release, but a book that had been on my radar for a while – which made it even more appealing to buy. The monthly theme was Bones of the Forgotten, which immediately created a nice dark and epic atmosphere. And that perfectly matched…

    Page & Wick #7: March 2025

    I actually received this Page & Wick box over a month ago, but the box itself was delayed to begin with. Apparently, the UK has been dealing with ongoing printing issues, which means a lot of book boxes are arriving later than planned. No big deal – it’s not like I was out of reading material, right? 😉 The theme…

    Page & Wick #6: January 2025

    The shipping of my Page & Wick box for the month of January was delayed considerably due to new EU regulations on safety. It finally arrived, thankfully without any problems at the border, on March 18th. The theme of the month was What Binds Us and without even guessing what the book for that theme would be, I knew I…

    Back today with the catch-up of my overdue book boxes. We are at number 5 of the 7 now! This time for the third and last time an overdue Page & Wick, one that I had chosen very consciously, because the predicted author is one that I really like to read! I am talking about the November box with the…

    Page & Wick #4: September

    Day 4 of the overdue book boxes and I’m back with a Page & Wick one. Due to the delays of the July box, I hadn’t paid much attention to the renewal that was charged on September 1st, even though I had decided to start being a bit more selective with all my subscriptions and would start skipping more months…

    Page & Wick #3: July 2024

    Despite my intention to catch up on my missing unboxings over the Christmas break, I found other things to do and my blog got neglected once again. Since I can’t help but be a completionist, it doesn’t really feel right to leave it as is, so I decided to upload the missing book boxes anyway, including the ones I received…

    Page & Wick #2: May 2024

    In January I got my very first box from Page & Wick, one where I was really impressed by the quality of the enclosed book. However, because it turned out that the import costs were not included in the purchase price, and I therefore had to pay a hefty sum on top of the already not cheap price of the…

    Page & Wick #1: January 2024

    I have the annoying habit where whenever I learn about a new type of book box subscription, I immediately sign up for their waiting list (because there is almost always one). But then there will of course come a time when my place on the waiting list has progressed so far that I will receive an invitation to actually take…
