Nothing there for me but I think the theme scrappers like all the sports papers. They even have pickle ball. No hockey though.

Breakfast and Brunch - love the yellow/grey colours
College Life - I don't need this right now (I'm between college students) but I love that the quotes are pretty realistic
Japan - Again I don't need this - I've finished the Japan albums - but I would have picked it up if it had been available when I was working on them
Get a Clue is fun - I'll keep it on the back burner as I don't need it atm but think it would be fun for murder mystery/escape rooms
The others don't appeal to me or aren't themes I need - I had hoped to like weekend getaway as I would use that theme but it's not right for me.
In general - I once again appreciate the variety of rarer themes that Reminisce offers even when they aren't ones I personally want/need

I like a couple things from Breakfast and Brunch and It's colorful. The rest I will pass on.

I like several of the Colorful Life papers for card bases, there’s a Halloween one with creepy looking spider webs rather than cutesy, and two of the basketball papers. They’re not really usually on my radar, is this one of the manufacturers with shiny paper?

Reminisce isn't always my style but I like that they try new things.
Breakfast & Brunch- Great theme but the style isn't for me. I'm still waiting for a good line with this theme- nothing will beat that Obed Marshall brunch paper, though. But First, Coffee- Again, I need more coffee paper but the style doesn't impress me much. I'll keep searching for the magic coffee line. College Life- Good topic but the papers don't grab me Dreaming of Japan - I have several Japanese lines by Basic Grey that I haven't used up yet so I don't need this one except for that excellent wave paper. Get A Clue - Again, great topic. I can see the use for this one for escape rooms and such, but the idea that someone would scrap their mug shot tickles me. It's A Colorful Life - Yes! I need this one. So pretty and versatile. Let's Play Basketball - The orange "Game Day" paper is the only one I'll get. I have a lot of Basketball stuff already. Let's Play Football - I like the 50 yard line paper. I already have a bunch of football paper, too. Let's Play Pickleball - I don't need it but appreciate that it exists. Let's Play Volleyball - I don't need it but appreciate that it exists. My First Snow - The only thing I need here is several sheets of that white sweater paper. I love it! Say What? - Oh, this would be great for card makers. I'll probably pick up a couple of sheets- there are a couple of animals I could use. The snakeskin paper is so pretty. Weekend Getaway - I love, love, love that water paper and the rest is pretty, but not a need. Winter Garden - Nope, but oddly enough, I'm kind of digging that white fur paper. That would be great for matting some animal photos.

I want the papers in the breakfast and brunch line for my recipe books and three of the papers in the get a clue line.
It's a pass on the rest.

GET A CLUE — for sure! we are Britbox & Acorn junkies. We love murder mysteries and this would definitely work.
LETS PLAY FOOTBALL — i love the images and document a lot of football.
I’d cherry pick through the rest but none are must-haves.

There are some interesting themes in that list... is Get a Clue supposed to be about going to jail or listening to crime podcasts? Say What has me confused, and so does Dreaming of Japan.
The b-side of the Booking It paper in the college line would like to be added to my collection, otherwise not much is calling to me. I like that there are sports papers, but those four sports no one in my house plays so I will pass. I think I am not Reminisce's target audience...

I had high hopes with Get a Clue because I was in a production of the play Clue this spring. However, it leans a bit too forensics and police procedural for my pictures, so I think I'm going to pass.

dreaming of japan is odd. if you didn't tell me the title of the collection, i never would have pegged it for japan.

A big Sunday breakfast is a tradition in our house so I could definitely use at least some of those papers. I would likely combine them with another collection, but they would be useful.
I have a swimsuit cover-up (or vacation muumuu as I call it) that matches the leopard print in Say What. I don't think I will be able to resist one sheet of this. Otherwise, nothing from this line.
Maybe a couple of sheets from the winter and coffee lines. In the winter line, I like the cable knit paper and the heart in the snow. Winter is long enough year that I could definitely use both of those.

Breakfast and Brunch-I was excited when I saw the title...but not as excited when I saw the colors. I mean, I know eggs are yellow and all, but could we have a little more variety to the collection? We go out for Brunch a lot and was hoping this collection would help me scrap some of those moments, but I don't know. I might pick it up, I might not. I think Say What? would be fun to make cards with. Or even for zoo pictures. Most of the other collections either don't pertain to me, or don't interest me. But...like others have said-I totally appreciate Reminisce for covering topics and colors and patterns that other companies won't do!

And I’m huge into serial killer type books and was hoping for something to scrap about that, but they’re more cutesy than would work with what I have in mind. But I love that they’re tackling the theme!

Wow! That's a lot of releases! Although I'm not drawn to this brand (the shiny-ness), there are a few sheets of these lines I like. And I also appreciate that they offer all of these more "obscure" themes. 1. Breakfast & Brunch - No 2. But First,Coffee - I like this line. 3. College LIfe - No 4. Dreaming of Japan - No, although some of the colors are pretty. 5. Get a Clue - Big Yes! Love this. I watch a lot of mysteries, police shows, and read mystery books. 6. It's a Colorful Life - No 7. Let's Play Basketball- Maybe the sticker sheet. 8. " " Football - No 9. " " Pickleball- No, but it's fun that they included this. 10. " " Volleyball- No 11. My First Snow - No, but I like the wintry green color. 12. Say What? - Funny faces! But I don't need it. 13. Weekend Getaway - No 14. Winter Garden - Maybe the sticker sheet. Thanks for showing us PaperAngel.

It’s nice to see some different colourways for a change. I’m not a fan of either shiny paper or photorealistic papers, but there are quite a few here that I really like (or would if they weren’t shiny!)

Breakfast & Brunch - I have several breakfast & brunch kits, but I eat a lot of brunch haha so I could put this one to use. Some of the non-themed papers could be used for my football pages, as my team wears brown and yellow. But First, Coffee - As above, I already have several coffee-themed kits, but I could use this one too. College Life - Not relevant to me Dreaming of Japan - I am hoping to travel to Japan in the next few years, so the name of this one excited me. Then I saw the colours and was perplexed. It's not reminiscent of Japan at all. Get A Clue - I have no idea what this one is about. It's A Colorful Life - some nice papers Let's Play Basketball - no Let's Play Football - Not relevant, but would buy something like this if it were AFL instead of NFL themed. Never gonna happen though! Let's Play Pickleball - My friend and I have been wanting to play pickleball for years. I would buy this if I had photos to scrap. Let's Play Volleyball - not relevant My First Snow - I love some of the papers Say What? Nope. I mean, cute animals, but nope. Weekend Getaway - Gorgeous papers! Winter Garden - nope. What a big selection, thanks for sharing! Even though they don't offer digital products, I still love looking.

Thanks for your responses. I don't gravitate toward photorealistic &/or glossy papers, so nothing is added to my wish list. However, like many of you, I still appreciate the company's contribution to the industry with its unique themes, color palettes, etc.
