December 2016 YA Chronicles Unboxing

It's only taken until the end of the year, but one of these unboxings is actually being posted within a somewhat reasonable timeframe!

The theme for December was Simply Wonderful


As always, the themed bookmark

Some festive washi tape. I do like the design, but as I've stated in a previous unboxing, the item itself is useless to me. 

This "I fell into a book" button magnet actually isn't a bad item. 

Next were these sticky tabs. I love the different colours and I especially love how they are specifically for bookworms. I don't actually tab books myself, but I know for sure that many other people do and they would love these. 

This golden snitch bracelet is definitely my favourite item in this box. I need more Harry Potter related jewellery so this item was perfect! 

Now for the book. Finding Wonders: Three Girls Who Changed Science by Jeannine Atkins. The premise sounds interesting enough, but unfortunately the book is written in verse. There's nothing I hate more than a book written in verse, so it's one that I will never read. 

Also included was a letter from the creators of the box explaining why they chose the book. It's still not going to convince me to read this book and as a side note, the font style in combination with the background made it very difficult to read! 

Overall I rate this box somewhere between a 2.5/5 & 3/5. The items were definitely cute, but not all were practical. The book was an absolute disappointment and a complete waste of money. If it hadn't been for that golden snitch bracelet, I would have rated this box even lower.
