Lastly, I debated about giving OUABC 4 stars or 5 for shipping because the issues with shipping are. That being said, I have sometimes felt let down by the paper items and opening them is less thrilling than the other types of gifts. 2019 YA box books and gifts opened (these boxes are no longer available in the shop, so no spoilers!), so you can see the kind of things you might expect: usable items like umbrellas, wearable items like scarves and necklaces, craft-y items like the pastels, and paper items like the flyer that enhance the story by bringing an item from the text directly into your hands as if by magic. The jewelry-type items don't come in every box and so far no items have been similar (repeated). I've seen other subscribers take issue with the costume jewelry, but I personal have loved them every time so far. All of the gifts that you open once you reach a certain point in the story are thoughtful and well-curated. I was an avid reader before, but this book club has enhanced reading for me to a new level. I usually get the YA box, but have since purchased 1 adult box used (from another subscriber) and 2 other adult boxes new (directly from OUABC) because I saw them on FB after the fact and really wanted to get in on it. I've been an international subscriber since November 2019.
