This would make the perfect gift for any book lover, especially those who enjoy a hands-on project. It’s such a unique way to add a little extra charm to a bookshelf, and every time I see it, I feel so proud of the work I put into it.

I’ve bought several model kits to build in the past and this has by far been the best quality one. All the model pieces are on high quality particle board that feels durable. The pieces are rigid, making them assemble and stand up well. They are all laser cut and punch neatly and easily out of their board housing. The pieces fit tightly together, which is what I want for security and making sure it holds together. I’ve been adding a little super glue as I work for good measure.

I like how all the pieces are laminated with their design. Compared to kits that had me gluing the design on pieces, that was neither a fun task, nor one that yielded particularly nice results. I like having that all done for me so that all I have is the fun task of putting things together. In that way, it is really a fun, 3-D puzzle and one that makes a whimsical display piece when finished. The finished piece has lighting inside, too, to show it off.

The instructions are clear and walked me through step by step, with pictures and everything clearly labeled. This has been a lot of fun and really relaxing to work away at in the evening.

This was a lot of fun to do. Took me about 15 hours to complete. The quality of the wood and the fit of the pieces were top notch. I probably didn’t need to glue any pieces together but I did just for stability long term. Only issues I had were the stickers. They didn’t stick very well and rolling the newspaper stickers didn’t work they would just open and I had to glue them all together.
