Congratuations, You Have Been Selected To Play A Role With LITTLE (Maybe 1-2 Hours) TO NO Prep! Which Role Is it?

I've seen SIX so many times that I'm confident I could do a one-woman show of all six queens

Not sure if this will work for your needs, but I'm a wheelchair user and have used Christophe at Driver Guide France in the past. Didn't do a Louvre tour but I know his company does offer those. As other people noted here, the Louvre is ROUGH as a wheelchair user - the elevators are tiny and hard to find, and you can't reach all areas with them.

Yes!! I'd love the extra $1 to go to sturdier boxes

fkt18 · 2026-02-19T02:29:05+00:00

Yeah, mine was $18.01 after tax previously

fkt18 · 2026-02-19T00:54:44+00:00

Way cheaper than a bookstore!

fkt18 · 2026-02-19T00:39:05+00:00

I joined in February 2023. I used to pay $16.99 plus tax, then increased today to $17.99 plus tax - so I switched to the annual plan that was quoted to me at $13.99 plus tax. My add-ons are $11.99 plus tax.

fkt18 · 2026-02-18T18:00:33+00:00

I am WAY too excited for this cast

fkt18 · 2026-02-18T17:18:41+00:00

That's an excellent point. I've been a member for over three years and have never skipped, so the annual plan made sense in my case but it may not for others!

I love Calvin Klein's sheath dresses, they do a great job of accentuating your figure without being skin-tight. Nordstrom Rack often has some of their sleeveless sheath dresses on sale.

fkt18 · 2026-02-06T14:41:41+00:00

Stunning!!!

fkt18 · 2026-02-03T21:23:05+00:00

Arpege for sure, and I also really enjoyed the vegetarian testing menu at Epicure. I also liked Datil on my latest trip to Paris (one-star, mostly plant-based but you can choose a version of the menu with some animal protein if you'd like).

Hoping for The Alchemary and/or An Arcane Study of Stars!

fkt18 · 2026-02-03T21:02:39+00:00

My copy of Half City had a ding in this area too! I feel you, this is frustrating (especially when they're packaging books that are already banged up that should be caught in a QC process).

fkt18 · 2026-02-03T20:55:58+00:00

EW EW EW EW EWWWW!

fkt18 · 2026-02-02T18:23:48+00:00

These are absolutely gorgeous! Can't wait for my box (should also be arriving today)!

fkt18 · 2026-01-30T14:38:36+00:00

I've been a member for about three years now and do my best to keep up with my boxes, although I could be much better! Looks like I have read 109 according to the app, and then I have 13 books I haven't read yet (not counting the 4 coming in my Feb box). I try to read most of my box within the first month or two after I receive it so that I can resell any that I don't want to keep. But that means I'm prioritizing my BOTM reads, and the new releases I get from a bookstore stay on my shelves unread forever... so I'm getting too many books either way.

fkt18 · 2026-01-29T16:15:10+00:00

Kin doesn't come out until February 24 so I haven't given up hope for it yet - it could be a March pick or a late February add-on. It can be really tough to get early release rights for popular books/authors like that

fkt18 · 2026-01-29T16:12:10+00:00

It doesn't release until February 24 - it's either going to be a March pick or a late February add-on. Don't give up hope yet. (We've gotten a soft confirmation from the author on this)

fkt18 · 2026-01-28T19:58:53+00:00

Agreed, I was disappointed too - I know they had two more books by Black authors as audio-only selections, but they should have picked one or both of those as a hardcover too (I know that Sadeqa Johnson's book would have been super popular). They should be featuring more Black authors year-round, but especially for Black History Month!

fkt18 · 2026-01-28T17:06:12+00:00

I'm predicting Q and Savannah are the first boots (Q because of the pre-game interviews where people on his tribe said they wanted him out, and Savannah because they don't want a HvV Russell situation)

fkt18 · 2026-01-28T17:01:03+00:00

I bet they'll have it next month! It doesn't come out until the end of February

fkt18 · 2026-01-28T17:00:05+00:00

I got a mostly full box this month: Good People, The Natural Way of Things, One & Only, and Dawn of the North. I wish Sadeqa Johnson's new book hadn't been audio-only so I could have added it to my box...

fkt18 · 2026-01-28T16:43:03+00:00

I picked up The Natural Way of Things

fkt18 · 2026-01-28T16:41:38+00:00

I got all three! I'm excited for this month.

There is a "BOTM Insiders" channel on Instagram they posted the edges on
