High quality and a fun build
Well packaged, clear instructions and includes glue, tweezers, small file and a tiny hammer for stubborn parts. The parts were easy to remove from their mounts and some extra parts are included for the more delicate ones that are easy to accidently break. The included lights work well and are nice and bright. Looks fab on my bookshelf.

Great Quality
Came with everything you need to assemble, glue, tweezers, tape to secure the wiring and a small sanding strip though we didn’t need this. Only needs 2x AAA batteries (not supplied).All the parts fit together very well and secure. Even comes with some spare wooden parts for fragile or very small items like the dinosaur.All the parts are wood, the printing is quite detailed and you can easily identify some of the small books. The glue takes a little bit of time to set (maybe 20-30 mins to stop sliding around), so when gluing some of the books it’s best to do in small batches.Be prepared to apply stickers to about 260 small books!Glad it comes with a clear dust cover as it would not be easy to keep clean otherwise.The instructions could be clearer in some areas but are enough to get the job done with lots of colour pictures that match the model.Bought as a gift for my wife who’s an avid reader and she loves it, we had lots of fun assembling it and couldn’t be more pleased with the result. Probably took 8-10 hours spread across a week.

Excellent quality
I have made several 'nook books' recently and this is both one of the most challenging and the best made. I am only part way through the build but have yet to face an issue. The mortice and tenon joints are accurate and work smoothly. Thus far I have no had to use abrasive or glue, although that is supplied. I am very happy with this make.

Fun to build and a great result
I thoroughly enjoyed building this. The diagrams were clear and everything was really easy to pop out. I loved making all the little books. And arranging them. The lighting kit was easy to install and it looks fantastic on my book shelf.Two very small negatives for me - the printed outer was upside down. But as it is on the shelf between books and cannot be seen, it’s not that big of an issue.The second thing would be that I would like a little more creativity. Why couldn’t the telescope we more round - tube like - than flat? I would just have liked to made or built a few more items. I’ve made up another kit Sam’s study which was much more involved, cutting out leaves and colouring flowers. It doesn’t have to be that detailed but that’s what I like.Regardless- it was a great kit and I hope to do another soon.

Great BookNook to build and looks brilliant on the shelf.
I had been looking at buying a book nook for a while but put off a little due to the expense. Saw this one in a deal on Amazon and I’m glad I bought it.The process of building it gave hours of fun and I really enjoyed the challenge (even the relatively boring aspect of ‘covering’ literally dozens and dozens of books for the library shelves.Great lit, great instructions, and unbelievably well engineered.

Fantastic Little Model Kit!
The media could not be loaded. I really enjoyed putting together this model! The end result was fantastic 😁 extra pieces were provided for some of the smaller bits which are more prone to breakages which was handy. The glue which was provided with my kit was great, and it had a fine nib for easy application. Fixing the lights in place was also easier than I was anticipating, and I like that it has a touch pad on the outside of the casing to activate the lights. It probably took me about 10-15 hours overall (putting the covers on the books was probably one of the most time consuming parts, but strangely therapeutic haha), but I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Coolest thing I've ever bought
The media could not be loaded. I never review products but this was so much better than anticipated!I bought this as a present for my sister (33) and she absolutely loved it. The quality was much better than I thought it would be and it was sufficiently complex to keep her entertained for a few days. Quite a few parts so wouldn't recommend for children!Honestly looks so cool and I'm insanely jealous of her bookcase now
