There is no way whatsoever not to love everything released by Amy and Evanescence, but I was a bit upset about the smell of this set, especially the journal! A bit worried about the chemicals! Not sure if I'll ever write in it, it is too pretty. I don't write music, so it was surprising to find the blank music bars. I would be happy to read letter written by Amy all day long. That was a nice surprise. I would have liked more to be in there, a little sad how much extra space is in the box, but definitely worth it and would buy it all over again and again. I hope I'll be able to find a digital version of the cassette, because only being able to listen to that on the cassette would make me listen to it less than I'd actually like to. I am also sad I did not see the autographed option, as I ordered this the first day it was available. I would have liked to have considered getting an autographed set. Maybe I can store my other Ev collectibles and autographs in here with the extra space. They aren't bitter truth, but it can just be an EV box. As for the music, as it has been said, there are no words that could ever do all of it justice. I get goosebumps and cry hearing Amy's voice, even after listening for almost 20 years now. She can do no wrong. She is in my every day, and has been since the first notes of Bring me to Life.

This box set is amazing! I ordered it as a gift and it was perfect. I also had a good experience working out an issue with musictoday.

Such a beatiful packaging. Such details, it's truly a piece of art visually and musically. Love it!

An amazing package overall. Wonderfully presented, great inclusions, top notch quality, and - of course - awesome music.

Waiting for him to arrive

I love box sets so was excited to get one for this album. The journal is cool because it has both blank pages and pages with music staff. I enjoyed the note from Amy and the handwritten lyrics as well. The cassette tape is a neat addition, too. I wish that all the instrumentals had been included instead of just 7. When bands release an instrumental version of an album, I find that I listen to that almost as much as I do the full version. Definitely cool to hear this from Evanescence for the first time!

On par with The Open Door as the best album yet! Love the extra content with the Deluxe box set.

Finally I have it and is absolutely perfect! A piece of art. The journal very touching. Thank you so much for bring to us this wonderful album!

The Box set is Amazing!!!! I love the new Album!!! I wanna see you again!!!! Here in Puerto Rico , i saw you in Puerto Rico 2011 at the Choliseo en San Juan, and 2019 i saw you in Miami i love you guys EVANESCENCE is part of my world!!!!

Excellent edition! I love this deluxe version of the album! So great to have a 2 cd special edition and more extra material from the new album :) I really loved this!

A blissful acoustic and sensorial experience. 5 stars are short. I wish I could give more!!!

La boîte "Deluxe" est superbe. Elle est arrivée en parfait état. L'album est splendide : chaque morceau a sa saveur particulière. J'apprécie également le CD bonus et la cassette (comme au bon vieux temps...). Tout est parfait. Je ne regrette pas mon achat, même si j'ai attendu quelques jours de plus après la sortie de l'album. Bravo et merci à tout le groupe !

The quality of the box is great. The journal is so much better than I expected, I love it. I’m so glad that I had this edition.

The deluxe set was everything I'd hoped for and more. The album itself is a masterpiece, full of darkness and hope, with incredible instrumentation, vocals, and mastering. The cassette tape was a delight, especially hearing Amy in Mom Mode, and just enjoying sounds the way that she does. Finally, the journal is beautiful, with a beautiful letter from Amy, a section for writing words, the piano score to "Far From Heaven", and a section for writing music. The only error I found in the entire set was in the piano score in the journal- there's a page missing! But I reckon most piano players will be able to figure it out based on the rest of the score and by listening to the song on the cassette. Things work out! All in all - simply amazing.
