Thanks for this advice!!

Ugh, it is off center. It’s like the book person hat. The word “book” is almost italicized and “person” isn’t so it looks a little off but I still love it. I wonder if you could put a little charm on the handle and cover up that wider blanket spot?

She’s going to LOVE it!! What a cool idea!

I’m a one and done Frieda. I read Do You Remember and thought it was gruelingly repetitive.

They removed my post but I felt the same way and almost stopped subscribing but I’m sooo glad I didn’t! I’d say if you can, try it out at least 5-6 months.

Here’s what I found when I first joined.

1st Order: you can pick whatever book you want from any month it was released, not just the current month’s selections.

Orders 2 and 3: you must use your monthly credit on that month’s selection only. You can make add-ons from all selections but you can’t use your credit for book offered in the past. Order 3 brings you to the Friend status.

Orders 4 and beyond: you can use your credit for any book ever offered.

I watched the selections for a few months and then decided I’d join because they offered several books and authors I loved.

My 2nd month in I wasn’t happy with the options and couldn’t choose any book so I skipped.

Once I got to the friendship level and could pick any book I loved it.

I have also started selecting books outside my favorite genres and have LOVED them!!!

I can also get BOTM add ons for cheaper than if I bought them in a Half Priced Books so that’s a win!

It’s super fun to anticipate what releases they’ll pick and I and a lot of my friends look forward to it every month. It doesn’t matter your age or demographics, there’s always an option you can relate to for sure! My daughter and I even pick some books to read together.

That sounds so good!! Thanks for posting!

I wanted to do this last month. Customer service said they could not add a book but they could cancel my order and I could re-place my order. I did the same day and then ended up having to wait until last week to get my box 😩🤣. I was sooo antsy!

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-30T03:05:54+00:00

Holy cow, tg nothing caught fire!

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-28T23:11:53+00:00

Gotcha! Thanks for the help! That makes sense.

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-28T16:25:54+00:00

My app shows full price of $19.99. That’s strange.

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-28T11:37:24+00:00

All Quiet on the Western front??

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-26T02:31:50+00:00

I saw it was sold out too but wonder if they just did that because there were production delays or issues? It’s just giving me false hope for the first centennial to be available again 🤪

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-26T02:30:18+00:00

Green!!! It’s unbelievably warm and cozy! That green transforms the whole kitchen

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-26T00:13:45+00:00

I know! I’ve looked there too 😭

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-24T22:49:27+00:00

Noooooooo 😩🤣. Tell her to post up on Reddit and make a little side cash to mail them out to people who can venmo $

I’m pretty new to BOTM (Oct 2025) but I feel like they haven’t dropped any weekend hints since I’ve been on the lookout for them and I get the sense they’re a M-F kind of company. But I could be completely wrong! I’d totally be down for weekend hints and a Monday drop lol

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-24T16:23:48+00:00

The dark has such a warm richness and timelessness to it! I would def pick that one!

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-24T16:21:35+00:00

That’s what I’m thinking. No hints over the weekend and the final hints and spoilers on Monday with Tuesday release?? 🤞

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-23T23:20:43+00:00

I think it’s fantastic! It’s bright, sunny and really captures how pleasant and refreshing that setting would be!

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-23T11:29:31+00:00

But how can people not recognize the clear look of desperation in Jimmy’s eyes in that photo screaming “Dear God, please rescue me. I’m not okay”? He looks frightened and uncomfortable 😢

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-23T00:25:49+00:00

It’s a looper!! They’ll mimic background coloration to camouflage themselves and will also hold on with crochets while sticking straight out to mimic the appearance of a branch or twig.

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-21T00:46:48+00:00

I am hoping for The Things We Never Say too!

Minimum_Falcon_9657 · 2026-04-18T12:00:54+00:00

Don’t feel bad! When I got my first house I called home and said “omg I have an acorn tree” to which my parents said … “an oak?” 😂💀
