The book box\u00a0is not restricted to a particular genre as it aims to widen the exposure of a reader to various authors and genres.\u00a0The theme for each month is chosen and an appropriate book is included in the package.\u00a0Other services include providing customised boxes to customers (even internationally). They have previously put together theme such as ‘Sufi’, ‘poetry’ and ‘crime thriller’ and are working on a ‘poetry’ box and a ‘Harry Potter’ box as gifts.<\/p>\n\"Books<\/p>\n

Books<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

There were two books included in the Feb box (Hurray!). The surprise book turne out to be a paperback copy of Carve the Mark by Veronica Roth <\/em>from Harper Collins.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Goodreads synopsis<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

On a planet where violence and vengeance rule, in a galaxy where some are favored by fate, everyone develops a current gift, a unique power meant to shape the future. While most benefit from their currentgifts, Akos and Cyra do not\u2014their gifts make them vulnerable to others\u2019 control. Can they reclaim their gifts, their fates, and their lives, and reset the balance of power in this world?<\/p>\n

Cyra is the sister of the brutal tyrant who rules the Shotet people. Cyra\u2019s current gift gives her pain and power\u2014something her brother exploits, using her to torture his enemies. But Cyra is much more than just a blade in her brother\u2019s hand: she is resilient, quick on her feet, and smarter than he knows.<\/p>\n

Akos is from the peace-loving nation of Thuvhe, and his loyalty to his family is limitless. Though protected by his unusual currentgift, once Akos and his brother are captured by enemy Shotet soldiers, Akos is desperate to get his brother out alive\u2014no matter what the cost. When Akos is thrust into Cyra\u2019s world, the enmity between their countries and families seems insurmountable. They must decide to help each other to survive\u2014or to destroy one another.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The other book\u00a0was one that I chose from a list containing six books some written by Jane Austen and some by Ruskin Bond. I received a paper back copy of Mansfield Park<\/em> (Fingerprint classics).<\/p>\n

Review of the box<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Books N Beyond Feb box got delivered in the beginning of Feb, as promised. The packaging was good. The goodies and books were placed in a creative bundle of newspaper strips and bubble wrapped. The box is perfect for art enthusiasts because there were many bookmarks and art prints. Since there are two books included, the bookmarks are curated to appeal to YA audience as well as classics lovers. I was glad a Jane Austen bookmark was included to go with the book.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The card inside says the cookie is placed to lift your mood. That is so true! I nibbled on it as I did the photoshoot for the post. Not to forget the jar of herbal tea. The jar I received is an immunity booster blend and contains wild nettle blended with Tejpatta, lemon grass and Garhwal Green Tea. \u00a0The box has everything needed for peaceful Feb evenings – tea and organic soap for a long, hot bath.<\/p>\n
