Novel Crate Ebook Box

order just one box or subscribe to get up to all six throughout 2025. I’ve tried to make Novel Crate as accessible as possible so that everyone can join in the book mail fun.

Tomorrow is the last day to order/subscribe and get a box from this round. I know I’m biased, but I think you’re really going to like these books and what I’ve picked to go with them. Remember, we have both full size and mini boxes so you can pick whatever option best fits your budget. You can also

How about some super vague hints at some of my inspiration for the goodies for this round. Anything pique your interest?
I am so bad at keeping secrets like this. I’ve had so much fun picking out & designing goodies for this round & I just want to tell people so they can be excited too.

This round’s boxes have our first custom designed goodies. I’m still working out the design for the romance box. But I am OBSESSED with the design I have planned for the fantasy version. I might just have to order an extra one for myself.
Order by Jan 10 to get this month’s box!

Book spoilers ahead! Scroll at your own risk! Don't say we didn't warn you.

Subscriptions are now open! Order by Jan 10th to get the first box of 2025

Oops I forgot I have an account here 🙈
We had some technical difficulties that delayed the shop opening but they’re all fixed now. You still have a few more days to get the first boxes of 2025! More details on this month’s boxes below.
www.novelcratebox.com

We have mini and full size boxes to try and meet every budget. And we are committed to featuring BIPoC, LGBTQIA+, or neurodivergent or disabled authors in at least 50% of our boxes.

If you’re finding us for the first time, we’re a slightly different book box. Instead of a special edition, we include an ebook copy of the featured book with exclusive bonus content. So whether you already have a physical copy or just prefer ebooks, you can still get all the fun of a book box.
🧵

Anyone who subscribes starting on Jan 11 will get the March box.
If you were here for our last round, you may notice that Dark Romance & YA are not listed. There just wasn’t enough interest to be able to meet minimum quantities for the goodies. They’re not gone forever, just for a bit as we grow.

I’d recommend everyone regardless of medical risk bring a mask on your airplane journey, a disinfectant wipe to clean the seat you’re in and hand sanitizer.

It’s going to be on you alone to protect your health.

Warning signs are everywhere.

Thou Shalt Not Allow Polio to Come Back Holy shit, what the fuck.

The polio vaccine worked so well, humans forgot polio existed — and somehow that’s the problem.

Texas files first lawsuit against out-of-state abortion provider This case sets up a legal battle between Texas’ near-total abortion ban and New York’s shield law that protects doctors from out-of-state prosecution.

Here we go, this is what “leave it up to the states” looks like in practice (but we already knew that)

I am literally BEGGING people to not forget about those of us with disabilities right now. I have seen post after post full of concern for every kind of marginalized people (listed out) that say nothing about the disabled community. It really effing hurts.
Also, please wear a mask in public.

I say we a lot because I do have help sometimes. But for the most part this is a one woman show. So hi 👋🏻 My name is Lauren & I’m a disabled indie author. I am so passionate about this business & I do hope to be able to take it full time so I can create a life that works for my disabilities instead

Introducing Novel Crate Ebook Box

Why an ebook box? The goal of Novel Crate is to give more readers access to the fun and swag of a book box. Novel Crate is for: - Readers who prefer ebooks or don't collect hard copies - Readers who already bought a hard copy of the book but still want the goodies - Readers who often can't afford book boxes because of higher product & shipping costs

Our promise to you: We are committed to featuring marginalized authors in at least 50% of our boxes. We know that authors from these groups are often forgotten or ignored by many in the publishing world and we don't want to be another company on that list. This includes: - BIPoC authors - Disabled and neurodivergent authors - LGBTQIA+ authors

Novel Crate is the world’s first ebook box! Well, at least as far as we know. Our goal is to give more readers access to the fun & swag of a book box by including an ebook instead of a special edition hard copy.
Novel Crate is for:
– Readers who prefer ebooks or don’t collect hard copies
– Readers
