  • I went a little crazy on the Folio Society New Year Sale... Some prices were more than 50% off. I hope you enjoy this Folio Society unboxing / book haul.
    Btw, forgive me for the mispronunciations. I did my best to edit and publish this video quickly =)

    What a GLORIOUS collection, it makes my heart warm. These editions are simply stunning!
    Do you happen to know when their New Year's sales begin? I hope they have it every year, I will start collecting them!

    These books are almost too beautiful to be true! I haven't got any FS books so far, but they're exactly my kind of books, so I guess I should remedy that!

      Thanks, Cameron! Have you seen the Folio Society New Year Sale? I paid something between £10 to £25 on each of these books. 50% off! =)

    • @LibraryMacabre
      @LibraryMacabre Před 7 lety +1

      BookCravings I heard something about that but that it was only for people who have shopped with them before. I haven't yet unfortunately, but I will this year so I can take advantage of the next sale! 🙂

    • @BookCravings
      @BookCravings  Před 7 lety +1

      I do believe 7 or 8 months ago they changed their policies. Anyone can buy books, regardless of having shopped with them before, and even in the 1st purchase you don't have to buy 4 books anymore. That's how I started collecting their books last year =)

    Splendid! You're my favorite BookTuber, this is my favorite Folio Society unboxing video and ultimately the one that inspired me to start my own FS collection. I've only two books: On the Psychology of Military Incompetence and The Mask of Command...I want my collection to be as prodigious and as beautiful as yours.

They seem to be the best so far that I’ve seen with good collection of books and doing international shipping. Discovered them from one of your videos. Eagerly awaiting the delivery now

    Please buy a nazar bead, i watch your videos with so much envy I feel like I'm unwillingly causing an "evil eye effect"
    (Nazar beads are blue glass tokens that look like eyes and are meant to protect against evil eye, it's a Turkish custom)

    Respectfully, you mispronounced Albert Camus' name properly (well, Camus anyway). It's pronounced Ca (like cat) mus (like moo). Oh, You have a wonderful collection by the way. Cheers!
