    'Healthier than I had hoped for." 🤣 I LOVE the instant type of cappuccinos. You seemed as excited as a child on Christmas morning!

    The Mystery Book is always the best part of the unboxing!

    The postman knocked? I was certain, at your house, the postman would always ring twice. :-) Have a great weekend, Olly -- stay cool! Mid to high 90s here for the next week ...

      Ha very good! It’s going to be about the same here, which is very hot for here!

    I found a Special X book in a Free a little Library this week. It was very exciting as I remembered you were a fan.

    The bookmark is definitely Pennywise! And Maggies Grave was the first David Sodergren I read and it’s really REALLY good!!!

    I read a dozen or so Masterton books in the early and mid 00s including Wells of Hell. I don’t remember a thing and unhauled years ago. One of his best was Feast.

      I don’t think I’ve read Feast. I always have a pretty good time with his books though

    I’m pretty sure the bookmark is Pennywise! Loved my box too, always look forward to the postman!

      Ah yes I think you’re right! I really love the whole experience.

    I live in the states and usually my box comes a week after you post. So, I like to cheat every month and see your videos for a sneak peak. I've for some reason had to subscribe to you multiple times? But, no worries, I'll continue to look you up monthly and check your videos.

    • @CriminOllyBlog
      @CriminOllyBlog  Před 2 lety

      That’s really weird! No one else has ever said they’ve had that problem, but then I guess maybe they just didn’t realise 🤔
      Sorry for the inconvenience though! And glad you like the videos (and Abominable!)

    Unboxing videos are fab. Your enthusiasm simply makes it better. Great month! 👏🏻👏🏻

    This month's box was great...I got The Spear by James Herbert. I really recommend 'Maggie's Grave' by David Sodergren, I think you'd really enjoy it!

    • @CriminOllyBlog
      @CriminOllyBlog  Před 2 lety

      Oh nice! I reread The Spear not long ago and really enjoyed it

    Dont suppose you have any remedies for stinky books do you ? I've tried the baking soda in a bag - doesnt work.

      @CriminOllyBlog  Před 2 lety

      I've never even tried tbh. I kind of don't mind it
