On one Friday at 12pm, I diligently logged onto a website to order my copy House of Earth and Blood that would be virtually signed by the one and only Sarah J. Maas! From my book review posted here, you can read that I was beyond excited to read the book (I purchased the e-book on Kobo Books).
Today, I finally opened the box that was delivered a couple of weeks ago because I wanted to be able to do it calmly. The book was beautifully packaged with red crinkle paper and a black piece of construction paper sealed with a red “Sarah J. Maas” sticker, which I carefully peeled off to stick back onto the inside sleeve cover of the book. Three pages into the book, I see Sarah’s signature. Excuse me while I jump around fangirling. Easily my most prized book possession. Well worth the price.
The book is absolutely stunning. The artwork is magical. I don’t even want to touch it. But I will as I plan on re-reading the book, slowly this time, over the next couple of weeks. Then I will wait impatiently for the next book of the series and probably re-read the book a few more times again.
