I got The Lost Story and for add-ons A Million Junes and Volume 0, Issue 2. My box shipped on the 3rd (I ordered it on the 1st), but it's saying it won't arrive until well into next week. I suspect the mail holiday on the 4th delayed all shipping at the beginning of the month, so who knows when you would've gotten your box. Although some reviews made me hold off on picking up The Wishing Game, The Lost Story is right up my alley with the portal fantasy, so I'm excited to read it.
Ooh good point about July 4 adding to the delays. I keep forgetting to check on Volume 0 since it doesn't seem to show up on the desktop browser. Eager to hear reviews for The Lost Story and how they compare to The Wishing Game
I chose The God of the Woods and it was shipped out today. I also don’t recall seeing that notice about it shipping late when I made my selection earlier today. But I’m excited about reading this book!
Bummer You seemed so excited about many of the choices. I'm going to pick "god of the woods" I tend to have about 3-4 books going at a time (including just starting the ACOTAR series) so if the book doesn't ship right away I have fall backs. I'm also going to add the 2nd short stories release as an add on. I agree "she started it" was a DNF for me, and left a sour taste in my mouth for reading for a while there.
I chose God of the Woods. They must have run short or had multiple shipments because mine has shipped. I ordered it early this morning. I was tempted by A Thousand Times Before so will probably read at some time.
Aw, I feel bad for you…my guess is they sold out of both those books and are rushing a reprint. I don’t blame you for skipping! I’d skip too. I actually got 4: Husbands and Lovers, Bear, All the Colors of the Dark and Same Bright Stars. AND my box shipped already. 😊
I picked God of the Woods and Yours Truly (I’m late to that series). No shipping delays, but assuming I got my order in before they ran out because I’ve seen that message before when I waited. I hope you get to start on it this week!
If it wasn't for Sarah Pekkanen (auto-buy for me) i would have skipped for July. I feel the add ons are much better than the main picks lately, which has been disappointing. I agree with you about having the feeling of not waiting for a book to be shipped later when you can get it now. Not sure how i feel about the "rebrand" yet. You gave us a lot to think about in this video. 👍 I almost forgot that my add on was Send For Me (historical literary fiction).👋
I ordered early… I think it was before 7am CT. I got both God of the Woods and All the Colors and my box shipped out yesterday afternoon. It’s the first month I haven’t had delayed shipping in quite a while though so I was due. 😂
I picked The Gods of the Woods too - the late shipping notice wasn't under the book but my books are shipping late per an email I received. I also picked House of Glass - I hope I liked it okay. I know their books are mid but I get them confused with Sarah Pinborough who wrote Behind Her Eyes. My mistake. I get not waiting for the long shipping time for the books you want but the prices are much better with BOTM and I like reading physical books so The God of the Woods and All The Colors of the Dark (which I want to read) will probably have long wait lists at the library. All The Colors of the Dark was $30 when I saw it at the bookstore this past weekend.
That's disappointing you weren't notified about late shipping until after you had already checked out. That makes sense wanting the BOTM price for the physical books and not waiting for the library. I forgot about Sarah Pinborough! You're right her name is incredibly similar to Sarah Pekkanen

Same. It must have changed later in the day
Yay I'm glad you were able to have your copy shipped before they ran out - enjoy!
Bummer

I'm going to pick "god of the woods"
I tend to have about 3-4 books going at a time (including just starting the ACOTAR series) so if the book doesn't ship right away I have fall backs.
I'm also going to add the 2nd short stories release as an add on.
I agree "she started it" was a DNF for me, and left a sour taste in my mouth for reading for a while there.
I ended up enjoying The God of the Woods - I hope you like it too!

I'm glad yours wasn't delayed and I hope you like The God of the Woods!
I picked THE LOST STORY back in 7/1 and it just got delivered TODAY .. it didn’t warn me about the late shipping I’m disappointed
That's super frustrating! Especially that they didn't notify you
I got lost story, people we meet on vacation, Vampires of El Norte &the ornithologist's field guide to love.
That's an exciting variety of genres - hope it's a great reading month!
Aw, I feel bad for you…my guess is they sold out of both those books and are rushing a reprint. I don’t blame you for skipping! I’d skip too.

Definitely wondering what time they ran out. That's an exciting box - planning to start All the Colors of the Dark soon!
I picked God of the Woods and Yours Truly (I’m late to that series). No shipping delays, but assuming I got my order in before they ran out because I’ve seen that message before when I waited. I hope you get to start on it this week!
I ended up loving The God of the Woods! I hope you do too 😊
@@twentyonereaders Great!! I have another book to finish before I start it. So excited!

I feel similarly that the add-ons have been more exciting than the main picks. I hope you enjoy the Sarah Pekkanen and Send For Me!

Same here. I ordered early and also chose God of the Woods. It has been shipped.
Yay I'm glad your shipping was on time! Hopefully the delayed shipping was a one time thing for me.

@@twentyonereaders I think this is the second time that I ordered my BOTM and then finding out it will ship later.
Same as you, skipped. I actually also put my acct on hold after I ordered last month; that box was delayed as well. 😜
The delayed boxes make a huge difference! Makes sense why you put your account on hold
I chose the lost story, it looks so good! I also added the women, it got recommended to me by one of my parents buyers so I had to.
I enjoyed The Women earlier this year! Eager to hear reviews for The Lost Story
"Same as it ever was" is also an excellent pick.
I want to learn more about this book and will look out for reviews
