Eternally Yours

This is the OwlCrate August 2025 YA box. This box has items in it inspired by Twilight, Vampire Diaries, Nosferatu, and Vampire Academy. These books have been added to my TBR if they weren't already there.

August is slipping away, which means the chill will start to creep in, and what better way to keep cozy than our Twilight-inspired blanket! This item is designed by Nalakwsis (@nalakwsis) and features a beautiful piece of art and a quote from the book!

Settle into your writing persona with The Vampire Diaries inspired journal! Designed by Gretchen Cobaugh (@lichen_and_limestone), the journal features lined pages, a stunning front and back design, and striking red gilded edges!.

Our pen ink & quill set is the perfect addition alongside the journal! Inspired by Nosferatu, this set is the perfect item to use when writing journal entries of obsession (or a healthy attachment), and was designed by Cade Roach (@heyatlascreative).

Continuing with the cool stationery, these vampire crest paper clips are a beautiful way to keep your notes together or even use them as a bookmark! Designed by @no0nedesigns, this item features crests inspired by Vampire Academy!

This month features the eighth pin in our Enchanted Elixirs collection! Each month’s box includes a pin featuring magical elements from fantastical worlds all tucked away in a bottle—designed by Layla Ashtar (@layla_ashtar_shrine)!

Our eighth pin in the collection features Twilight, where the lion fell in love with the lamb.

The August book, Blood Moon by Britney S. Lewis, is a thrilling and romantic paranormal fantasy. Our protagonist is a girl seeking a fresh start and sense of normalcy as she starts college, while still dealing with the aftermath of a loss from several years before. Everything feels normal, with the exception of a mysterious boy who seems to immediately despise her without explanation. 

The arrival of an unexpected message leads her to discover that the local legend she was told growing up is not simply a fairy tale, and her mysterious classmate seems to know more than he is letting on. She finds herself pulled into an ancient conflict that will test everything she thought she believed, and reveal truths about her family’s role that will change her world forever. ⁠

This signed edition features a stunning redesigned cover by @tropicalgloom ⁠ and stenciled edges by @heyatlascreative . Turn over the cover for the reversible with gorgeous artwork by @art_by_benni. On the hardback, we have a foil hardcover case design by @lichen_and_limestone. Inside, you’ll find gorgeous end pages done by  @nir4z . Finally, an author letter and bonus content from Britney S. Lewis have been bound into the book for subscribers!

Overall, the August 2025 YA Box, Eternally Yours, items were good. I was delighted with each of the items and the thought that was put into them. My favorite item this month was the blanket. It is perfect for a cozy reading time this fall.

September's theme is Dangerous Gods and Beautiful Monsters, and the book is in a world where gods and monsters roam the earth, the guardian of a wild and dangerous forest filled with creatures unknown finds the one person who is immune to her poisonous touch. As one of the Sleepless, he must share his body with an evil spirit. As they forge an alliance, the evil spirit harboring his body plans to manipulate the guardian for his dark purposes, but she is not without secrets of her own behind this mission. It’s only a matter of time before their paths get caught in the crossfire of dangerous magic they can’t understand and destroy everything they’ve ever known.⁠

I hope you all enjoyed this review of the August 2025 OwlCrate YA box. I'm excited to read Blood Moon, and am excited to use all of my themed items, some as decorations on my shelves!
