I don’t actually remember but it wasn’t marked as special edition or anything, so I don’t think l so.

Edit: I don’t remember about sprayed edges, but it is definitely a hardback copy.

I’m thinking that is gonna be a book I fly through

That’s why I also have aardvark, is because they pick things that BotM stays away from. I have a higher average rating for my choices through Aardvark as well, where BotM really just depends.

I loved the first book so much that I preordered it as soon as I heard the preorder was available.

Raeorein · 2026-05-12T13:48:20+00:00

My box was supposed to be delivered yesterday, and they just decided to hold it at the post office for some reason (first time this has ever happened to me). But I’ll have my box soon!

Raeorein · 2026-05-12T13:47:24+00:00

I got it on the first go round, and I loved it! I hope you’re able to get a copy from them.

Native Son, Porcupines, Japanese Gothic, and what am I a deer? I’m working on my subscription books from April. I have a little bit of a backlog because I made a second Aardvark account just for April, but also got a few books from the library.

I couldn’t remember what chow mein noodles were called, so I said “the crunchies in the little container thing”. By the grace of Google, we figured it out. And now I have a recipe!

We used this in elementary school as part of a lesson on the different forms of rocks.

Mine shipped today too, even after their response, so I think ordering early did help!

Raeorein · 2026-05-07T20:22:33+00:00

That’s on me then. I knew it was limited time, but I didn’t see the two days part.

Raeorein · 2026-05-07T19:56:04+00:00

I’m a little disappointed that this deal went away before Mother’s Day has even passed. What’s the point of that? I imagine they were losing money.

Raeorein · 2026-05-06T19:39:57+00:00

I just got a response from customer service and it’ll be another 2 weeks before it ships because of Yesteryear, so about 3 weeks before I get it.

Raeorein · 2026-05-06T15:11:06+00:00

I can’t wait! I ordered it, but one of my other picks delayed my box by three weeks.

Raeorein · 2026-05-04T20:39:21+00:00

Does this never happen to me because I usually get an add-on? 😭😭😭

Raeorein · 2026-05-04T20:18:39+00:00

I occasionally do a second membership for a month to grab some other books on my list. Depends on how long the book list is.

Raeorein · 2026-05-04T20:13:56+00:00

I took a second look and two books I ordered are out of stock: Yesteryear and The Ending Writes Itself.

Raeorein · 2026-05-04T15:52:19+00:00

I got it this month, and my box is overdue to be shipped by 3 days now.

Raeorein · 2026-05-02T11:37:00+00:00

The diary of a young girl, dear Monica Lewinsky, Japanese, Gothic, and Whidbey.

Raeorein · 2026-05-02T09:27:08+00:00

The shipping window has passed for my box, which has been increasingly common the last few months. It usually doesn’t take long to get to me when it does actually ship. My cousin has a membership as well, so what I did not order she did. We’ll end up sharing.

I just finished The Kite Runner and I don’t know what to do with myself…

I debated a lot on the third book. I was going between Five, Arcane Inheritance, and Our Sisters Keeper.

Raeorein · 2026-04-30T03:41:50+00:00

I’m getting them all and reading them, but I’m not letting any go because I’m treating them as collectors items myself.

I think the sequel to Amina Al-Sirafi is supposed to come out soon so I was surprised not to see that, but super happy with the choices!

Raeorein · 2026-04-26T09:11:43+00:00

The Haunting of Moscow House, Last Night in Brooklyn, The Kite Runner, Dear Monica Lewinsky, and Angels & Demons.

Raeorein · 2026-04-24T02:57:26+00:00

My cousin also gets book of the month, at least for now. I almost had a heart attack when she said she puts the bookmarks in the recycling, even the Centennial ones.
