TOTALLY DECEPTIVE & AWFUL!!
This mug looked absolutely AWFUL! Nothing like the photo. It didn’t even look like books. My 5 year old granddaughter paints better. It looked like a preschool or early elementary art class project. I was completely floored by how bad it looked! Not even worth one cent. And on top of that, it was plastic, not glass. The handle wasn’t shaped the same nor was the “texture” the same. I can’t even get close to explaining how terrible it was. I was purchasing it as a gift. It arrived 1 day before I needed it. Now I have to scramble to find something else. Errrr!!!!!! This is complete deception & Amazon should ban this seller.

Mug is not that same as the picture
This product looks nothing like the listing photos—and now it’s obvious why. The photos appear to be AI-generated or heavily edited, because what arrived looks cheap, poorly made, and slapped together.The mug is much smaller than expected, the glass is extremely thin, and the “painted” design is a mess. The paint is thick and uneven in some spots, chipped in others, and overall looks unfinished and low quality. It does not resemble a handmade item at all.This is not a cute bookish mug—it’s a disappointment. Save your money and don’t trust the photos.

Looks nothing like the photo!
I was really disappointed with this mug. It’s advertised as a glass mug designed to look like a stack of books, but the one I received doesn’t resemble books at all. The paint job is uneven and messy, and overall it looks poorly finished. The item also doesn’t match the product photo, so it felt misleading. I ordered it as a gift, but the quality wasn’t good enough to give. I wouldn’t recommend this based on what I received.

Do Not Order
If I could give zero stars I would. The cup looks nothing like the picture. Not only is it smaller, not made of glass, but it looks cheaply made. Definitely not worth the price paid. I will make sure I look at customer reviews before ordering another Christmas gift

Do Not Buy.
This mug is a joke. It looks nothing like the photo. Well, I should say, okay, it bares a very slight resemblance to it. That is, if you’re standing 30 feet away and have bad vision. It’s plastic, not glass and not even painted very well. It barely looks like books. I bought this as a birthday present and when I opened it I was gobsmacked. What an utter waste of money. I’d read the reviews before purchasing and I am really not sure what the previous buyers were ON b/c this cup is nothing like the photo and I wouldn’t even use it to hold pens (it’s too short, at any rate). Color me hugely disappointed and pissed off. Shipping also took forever, so it was really adding insult to injury here. Do not buy this mug. Pretty sure you could get a better one at the dollar store.

This is not a glass mug
As the other reviews have stated, horrible craftsmanship. Its plastic not glass, looks like a child painted it. Was bought for my wife for a birthday gift. She said due to the thought she is keeping it, which if she sent it back wouldn't bother me, but is going to use it as pen cup on her desk at work. Highly disappointed. The picture of the product is highly misleading. Should be priced at $2.00.
