Book Lover's Cravebox

I was excited when I found out that Cravebox's next theme was going to be for Book Lover's.  I knew that I had to sign up for it and then give the box to my sister as a surprise.  My sister reads all the time, so this was perfect!

I watched my sister as she opened the box, and the first item she pulled out was of course, the book.  How I Came to Sparkle Again by Kaya McLaren is "set in a Colorado ski town...novel chronicles three people at the crossroads of heartbreaking and healing.  Three lives that will be changed one winter."

She then found Soy Nut Trail Mix from Crum Creek.  It is a blend of slightly sea-salted soy nuts, raisins, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and chocolate chips.  The package is 1 oz. with 131 calories and 8 grams of fat.

Strawberry Premium Licorice from Natural Vines is made from all natural flavorings and colors from natural food sources.  Neither one of us are fond of licorice, but this does not taste bad at all.  Reminds us of strawberry chews.  There are no preservatives, 150 calories and one gram of fat for 9 pieces.  There is also 18 grams of sugar for 9 pieces.

Next, is the Gratitudes Bracelet from Alexa's Angels.  The bracelet is made of wood and rhodium beads and is stretchy.  The packaging says to "use each bead to count the 10 things you are grateful for everyday."

Overall, my sister was very happy about receiving her first Cravebox.  With it being a complete surprise, it made opening the box even better.

Here are my sister's thoughts on the items in the Book Lover's Cravebox:

• "The book looks interesting."
• "Licorice actually tasted good."
• "The bracelet is not really my style."
• "Cannot wait to try the soy nuts."

Dislikes:  "I would have thought with it being a Book Lover's box that there might have been tea, coffee, book light, book mark, or maybe a blanket.  Really thought there might have been more book-related items in the box."
