I don’t normally buy more than one edition of a book but the paperback cover of Rose in Chains is so pretty (art by Tasia MS).

The US edition of the paperback will also have sprayed edges I believe!

Just saw this on threads and am I the only one that thinks they're ripping the p*ss? Someone calculated it and that's a horrendous rate of pay for the responsibilities in the listing.

TikTok just randomly showed me a video of a special edition of This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me.

I think it is the >!Moonlight!< edition

I just received the OC edition which is absolutely GORGEOUS!

I have to admit that I like the OC edition more, but will still get this one. I am very curious about the endpapers 😊 What do you think about this edition? Which one do you find more appealing?

TETOLYE presale.

Illumicrate presale is so much better than fairyloots. Received password email, and then was book purchased just a minute later.

I thought I saw a post about this, but I can’t seem to find it now. From what I was able to read before, the replies mostly said something about “even the first print had the same design” so technically “it’s not flawed”. The friend who has the set and sent me the close ups I’m sharing had mentioned to me she contacted IC about it so it caught my attention seeing someone else post about it. But other posts too made me look into it and when I checked myself, I don’t blame her for her and the other people for having the same conclusion. I would have… because in all honesty, if this is not a mistake, then there is an issue because it’s 100% misleading marketing by IC to hide it.

The gray marks are not subtle at all. It looks like paint scraps and really aren’t even uniformly spread all over the design to say that that it goes along evenly with it. I’m not surprised people flagged it. None of the other dust jackets have anything similar. (Also have to tell her there are multiple mistakes in the gold foil edges)

Which brings me to the point that when marketing the reprint of these, apparently IC made the extra effort to blur, edit, filter, hide these gray specks behind the rest and even go as far as to cut out the top part of LT from pictures. The pictures who kind of show it, you’d actually would have to look for it which shows a much lighter blended grey and you have to pull a Sherlock and zoom in on certain pictures to even notice it. And only if you’re actually LOOKING for it. Vs in hand when you have a clear picture of it and it appears immediately noticeable.

Whatever excuse of the pictures being just the art, go out the window with the edited versions posted of the actual books they shared in their page since it’s the second print. And if they had gotten complaints about it before, wouldn’t it be more transparent to make sure to have better images of it for clients to know what they are receiving?

You can click the pictures to see the whole image and where I got them from, I think Reddit crops out some edges in the post view.

Moonlight is about to get all my sub money. I was planning on cancelling most my Broken Binding subs, so hoping this will be a better fit for me since I love their current romantasy sub designs and picks!

Received both in the mail today. Here is a comparison - what’s your favorite?

I’m honestly leaning towards ML. The endpapers are incredible in person. But the foiling on the reverse DJ for BB is amazing too. I think the edges for both are lacking.

Currently deep cleaning and downsizing before a cross-country move so I’m trying to be ruthless about what books I keep… These are all FL special editions I either haven’t had the chance to read yet or feel unsure about holding onto long-term

Would love honest opinions on which of these are genuinely worth reading/keeping/displaying vs. which ones are overhyped or skippable

Anyone else getting this edition? the shipcost hurt my purse and it’s my first purchase from faecrate so I hope it’s gonna be worth it 😬

arrived today! such a beautiful edition, i am partial to a pink/purple book 💖 and the endpapers are simply gorgeous. 10/10.

The June adult announcement is out today, and I noticed in the customizations it listed that it was an exclusive extended edition. Is this something fairyloot has done before? I’m intrigued but curious how it will be done? Is there just extra chapters not found in the store versions? Will these parts be included in the main story or at the end as bonus content?

opinions on this? i got probably smuts version but i mayyy have to offload that if fl ends up being better 👀
