Your Custom Book Box is made especially for you, from the books we select to the little details tucked inside. Because every box is individually curated and prepared, please allow up to 3 weeks for curation and preparation before your box ships.
We promise, the wait is part of the magic.
A book box created entirely for you.
Some readers know exactly what they want to read next. Others want someone to take everything they love about books and turn it into something unexpected.
The Black Thorn & Ember Custom Book Box is a personalized reading experience curated specifically for you or someone you're gifting.
Tell us about your reading tastes, favorite tropes, genres, authors, current mood, wishlist, books you've loved, books you couldn't finish, and anything else you'd like us to know. From there, we'll thoughtfully select books and build a one-of-a-kind box around your reader profile.
Every Custom Book Box includes:
• Personally curated books based on your reader profile
• Each book individually wrapped for discovery
• Reader's Fate-style curated extras, including bookmarks, stickers, a Reader's Companion Pen, and a surprise reader gift
• Personalized clues or themes woven into the experience
• Premium Black Thorn & Ember merchandise selected specifically for you and your reader profile
• A personalized note explaining the thought behind your box
