Carry your favorite stories with you—literally! Show off your bookish personality with a mini tote from our first-ever TropeTote™ collection, featuring classic romance tropes. Compact yet surprisingly spacious, this stylish bag was custom-designed by a book lover for book lovers! It’s perfect for carrying your latest read, plus your phone, keys, and wallet. Made from 100% rPET (aka, recycled plastic), it’s cute and eco-friendly. This month's featured trope, Fated Mates, was designed by Kathryn Wyckoff, founder of the viral apparel and accessories shop Blissfully Bookish.
Simple, cute, and minimal! The best way to describe this TropeTote. I have absolutely loved carrying it around with my books, or other small items. It is a great reward to get with your orders of books. I look forward to the new release with each purchase I make!

This came so fast, it’s adorable and the cutest little book tote. Everyone who checks it out loves it and asks where I got it!
Cute little bag!

I thought the bag was pretty cute! Definitely smaller than I expected (even though the description said mini, I was not prepared. It's just a little larger than a standard lunchbox size), but I love the design and the idea of a "Trope Tote". Getting it as a free gift with the purchase of my books was like adding icing to the cake.
Love it

Love the size, holds medium and small books not good for A4 size. Can easily hold 4-6 best sellers hardback or 20+ kids/YA books. I have a couple of these trope totes and i cant really see anyone wanting to carry around more in one bag (it could risk damaging them if they are paperbacks) so the size makes sense and i think these are designed for you to collect more then one of the series. When you have more then one its plenty of space.
The design on this one is very vivid. The colors pop more then the other i have. I really wish they didnt put rings on it and just the red string. The designs for these tropes are lacking i LOVE the morally grey one I have and I wish I could get the first one that released I passed over it because im not a fan of romance stories and it said forbidden romance but the colors on that one and the design make me wish I really would have grabbed it. I passed up romanceland and slow burn romance because of the romance part also and those designs were great. I only got this one because I needed books anyway and wanted a second tote.
It’s mini alright 🤭

I’ll be honest, didn’t clock the “mini” part. Was excited to use this book tote for work as I’m a librarian, but it definitely won’t fit all my books. Very cute design though! THE RED STRING!!!
