THIS is what Blaire's story was supposed to focus on

Blaire's story included her being diagnosed with lactose intolerance, and then wanting to make food more accessible for others. But the marketing didn't focus on any of that, just the wedding 😔.

One of these sticker books pis**d me off

I was shopping online recently (not AG site) and needed to hit an order total for free shipping, so I got two of these AG sticker books. The one on the right Has more Beforever images and the one on the left came later. The one on the left is smaller, however, I liked doing it so much better. Each doll is one complete sticker, and much easier to match to the space on the page without any of the background peeking through. This book was great fun though, plus not as much flipping as the other one.

The book on the right had separate stickers for the different parts of each doll's outfit. While it's a neat concept, they couldn't be bothered to cut out the limbs. The skin tones don't match due to the lighting differences of the stock photos and the book. Matching up the limbs is SO hard. You can remove and replace the stickers if you are careful, but also, I am an adult. I kept getting annoyed because even when I tried to match one limb up exactly, another one would then be off. If I was a child, I imagine I would have been even more enraged, as I was a very scrupulous child who wanted perfection in any activity book she got.

Oh, and some tiny accessories or super small parts of items were separate stickers that I almost missed. Dizzy Dot's bow, Mele's collar, I nearly missed because they were already on the big main sticker. That was really annoying, and I breathed a sigh of relief when I discovered that Steps High's fringed saddle blanket wasn't an additional sticker I would have to try to match with the image on the book page.

There are some repeated stickers throughout the two books, but I really don't mind that. I used the bonus stickers to create "want" and "have" pages in my own personal sticker collection book. Having repeats also means you don't necessarily have to worry if you tear up one of the bonus stickers on accident.

Both sticker books are high quality, the paper is good and you can peel stuff up carefully if you need. I only tore a few stickers slightly, and very rarely did I have any stickers that weren't fully die-cut and had paper bits on them.

Overall these do make cool gifts of you have an AG fan in your life, or at least one who isn't super particular about matching up stickers exactly. The smaller book retails for $6.99 and the larger one for $12.99.

None of my other mods can edit me to assign me the "alumni" role, what action do I take next?
