April 2020 Owlcrate Unboxing!


Owlcrate is a monthly book subscription box, each month they send a new Young Adult release, the genres vary from month to month. Each box excludes a new hardcover Young Adult book, as well as 3-5 bookish goodies following the theme of the month. Each book is signed by the author and includes a letter to the reader. 

To subscribe you need to first pick a plan, either a 1- or 6-month plan. Owlcrate pricing starts at $29.99 plus shipping (that is US dollars), pricing varies based on the plan you chose. Owlcrate typically starts shipping on the 15th of each month, you will get an email with your tracking number once your box has shipped. If a theme for a certain month doesn’t sound like something you are interested in, you can skip that month with no penalty or charge. 

They recently added a new Owlcrate Jr. box designed for kids aged 8-12 years old. Much like the YA box Owlcrate Jr. contains 3-5 unique goodies that will “encourage curiosity, creativity, and imagination”. This box includes a middle-grade book and they make sure to appeals to both boys and girls.

Now let’s get into the unboxing!

🌙This theme for April is Full Moon Magic 🌕


The first item we have is the crescent moon bracelet that was designed by the

Owlcreate team. The inspiration for this piece of lunar jewelry was the book Winterwood by Shea Ernshaw. We received a beautiful special edition of this book a few months back. 

Next, we have this amazing notebook. This artistic hardcover notebook contains artwork from Kim Becker Design, and it features a quote from Oscar Wilde.

Next, is this month’s enamel pin, each month is different and exclusive to Owlcreate it features the book of the month. This month the pin was designed by White Wide Woods, and it shows off a special companion from this month’s feature book. 


Next, we have a tote bag that was created by Unlucky Designs and was inspired by the Shatter Me series by Tahereh Mafi. 

This bamboo moon phase banner was created by an Owlcrate team member. It comes in this adorable canvas pouch which features another quote from Oscar Wilde. 






The last bookish item before we get to this month’s book is this puzzle. This 300-piece puzzle’s artwork was designed by @atalienart. This puzzle shows off our favorite Defense Against the Dark Arts professor Remus Lupin. I am obsessed. 








Lastly, we have the book of the month!

This month the book is Bone Crier’s Moon by Kathryn Purdie. It is said to be a spellbinding story that brims with vibrant mythology, star-crossed lovers, and dangerous magic. This edition is exclusive to Owlcreate, it contains the unique cover and beautiful gold sprayed edges. The book is also signed by Kathyrn Purdie and there is an author letter included as well. 



The theme for May is Rebels with a Cause. I believe this box is sold out so if you want the chance to get your hands on the June box (theme is All the World’s Stage) I would sign up for their waitlist now
