TSG will be introuducing grab bags over this month. This is perfect for those who would love to have a box but have already read the included book.
The grab bags will include the House Challenges the same way the bookclub will just without as many prompts. Grab bag house winners will not be eligable for the bonus House item but it will allow them to recrue points for the following months boxes. Bags will cost £8.50 and £2.85 p&p. Watch this space for their release!:) Emma-Louise x Title: Alice
Author: Christina Henry Publication Date: 28th June 2016 Page Count: 198 Publisher: Titan Books Rating: 4/5 Plot Overview: Alice is older in this version, 26 years old and has been in an insane asylum since she was 16 years old after a fateful encounter with the Rabbit. Inside she meets a man by the name of Hatcher. One night there is a fire, allowing both Alice and Hatcher to escape.This fire however, also allowed the Jabberwocky to escape. Full of fear, trepidation and angst Hatcher and Alice search for a way to destroy this creature of pure evil. One there adventures they meet all the classics such as Cheshire, Caterpillar and Walrus. Review: A gritty tale of darkness, magic and the unknown I was hooked from the get go. The wording and imagery created in this novel was amazing and incredibly dark. The human variants of such well known characters was extremely well written and gave them a new lease of life, even if not necessarily as you would imagine. I still read the caterpillar’s word in the book as if spoken by the late and great Alan Rickman. I really enjoyed this book even though I did expect an ending with more of an impact however it leads perfectly into the sequel Red Queen which is on my reading list. Anyone who enjoys a novel with twists and turns and doesn’t mind the darker aspect of the human condition would really enjoy this. If you fancy reading this book it can be purchased on Amazon UK and Amazon.com Thanks for reading. That's right folks, the September box is now available for pre-order. The theme is Mystery - more than Sherlock or Nancy Drew who-done-it type mystery.
There are some fantastic items going in this months box, one of which will require you do choose the dimension to either go in a planner or as a seperate entity altogether. Boxes are priced at £15 each and £2,85 p&p.

I am sure you will probably guess what it is but I hope it is something all you readers will benefit from:) TSG: Bookclub Box August Unveiling The day has finally arrived for me to unveil the contents of the first Stationery Geekette Bookclub Box.
I was so excited to put all this together. Finalising the Subscriber Houses, Monthly challenge details and all the actual items. I sourced special ribbon just to tie up the challenge sheet and spent what felt like hours sealing all the letters with a wax seal. I'm proud of my little box coming together and incredibly thankful to those who handcrafted and worked away creating the most gorgeous things to be included. So lets look at the contents; The Book: Alice by Christina Henry Stickers: UglyBugDoes Bookmark: Quirkyartshere Postcard: Sushistudios Charm: Alymarinacraft Also included was a pen and some ephemera. The response to the first box has been really really good. The book also seems to have been a hit.
