When does the travel bug bite? No certain time for that urge to travel to bubble up your thoughts. So why not be prepared in the best way? That is The Bookling’s Crate’s motto for May – ‘Travel the World’. The Bookling’s Crate is a monthly book subscription service that delivers a Young Adult fantasy read along with bookish merchandise. They launched the service in January, 2017 and I loved their previous boxes. The Bookling\u2019s Crate is based in India and has free shipping all over India. Also, you can get a flat Rs.50 discount using the promo code SATCHEL50.<\/p>\n

The May box is themed #Traveltheworld. Here are the products included in the box:
\n1. Personalized travel tag
\n2. Compass
\n3. A tote
\n4. A Felt Bookmark
\n5. Travel Stickers (4)
\n6. Art card by Amol
\n7. Coffee from Beanstalk n Leaves
\n8. A surprise book<\/p>\n

The surprise book turned out to be a paperback copy of Windfall by Jennifer E. Smith.<\/em><\/p>\n Alice doesn\u2019t believe in luck or love. \u00a0On the eighteenth birthday of her friend, Teddy, she buys him a lottery ticket and he wins $140 million, and in an instant, everything changes. They negotiate the ripple effects of Teddy\u2019s newfound wealth and a gulf opens between them. Soon, the money starts to feel like more of a curse than a windfall. As they try to find their way back to each other, Alice learns more about herself than she ever could have imagined \u00a0and about the unexpected ways in which luck and love sometimes intersect. The May box was a bit different from the previous boxes. It had more prints and stationery items included in the goodie list.\u00a0Let’s get to the unboxing. My favourite this month is the personalised luggage tag. It almost makes me want to go on a trip to flaunt it. The tag has my name on it and comes with a plastic strap. Another super useful goodie included in this month’s box is the compass. Very handy especially if you are planning on going for treks or exploring new places.Goodreads synopsis:<\/h3>\n
\n<\/p>\nReview of the box<\/h3>\n
\nThe packaging was excellent and all items were plastic wrapped. There is a card inside that mentions the individual items included in the box.<\/p>\n
\nI love that The Bookling’s crate always includes a packet of food or drink. The May box contains one packet of Beanstalks N Leaves coffee powder. If you are a frequent visitor to this blog, you know I love coffee. So I was happy to get a packet. The May box would appeal to art print lovers since it has stickers and an art print by Amol. There is a tote included for easy travel as well.<\/p>\n
