#33 of 106 Icons sets with 1,000+ pieces

Builders rate this book nook 4.6 of 5, among the best in big Icons sets, and five minifigures give it a strong figure rate. Pieces per $10 are about typical (100 against 97) and plastic per dollar slightly below, but at $129.99 it costs roughly 11% less than its contents usually would, which makes it good value.
