It comes after Taylor unveiled a pop-up library in Los Angeles earlier this week as she geared up for the new album.

The Karma hitmaker's fans waited in line for upwards of five hours in order to attend a pop-up poetry library.

Fans were seen lining around the block for the special event, sponsored by Spotify, starting at five in the morning, just to gain some insight into Swift's upcoming 11th studio album, the Tortured Poets Department.

The singer is known for surprising her fans with Easter Eggs, and she continued on in the tradition, putting up a large bookshelf with clues about her new body of work.

This is the first album from Swift where she has not released a single ahead of the album, which added to fans' eagerness to learn any new information about what's to come.

The display was located right across the street from Cheesecake Factory at the Grove, where Swift's longtime nemesis Kanye West frequently dines with wife Bianca Censori. 

Among the carefully curated items fans sifted through and later discussed on social media was a clock stuck on '2:00 PM' - like in the new promo video -, a tambourine, a notebook with the words 'US' scribbled on the back, a fountain pen, and a perpetual calendar set to Friday, December 13.

There was also a small statue of Diana of Ephesus (the goddess of childbirth and fertility and the goddess of the moon).

One fan noted that 'The original statue of Diana crumbled while waiting to be shipped to London in the 6th century due to years of neglect, succumbing to the passage of time and the elements.'

Fans took this to be a dig at her ex, British actor Joe.

In February, Swift dropped the tracklist for the album, which will see her collaborate with Post Malone and Florence & The Machine.

Among the songs listed on the album is one titled 'So Long, London' which many believe will details Swift's breakup with Joe.

One item pictured on the bookshelf at the mall was an old-fashioned typewriter with a page featuring Swift's tracklist.

The highly-anticipated album will feature 17 new songs - and is her next record after Midnights was released in 2022

Taylor's fans have been going wild predicting digs at her famous exes after the Tortured Poets Department track list was revealed in February

One part of the bookshelf had a number of books, a jar with puzzle pieces, and an hourglass.

There was a book titled 'The Manuscript', with the author listed as Swift herself, along with another book called 'The Black Dog.'

There were other tomes which featured the names of some of her songs on the upcoming album.

There was also a gold birdcage perched among the books.  Yet another book was titled 'Fresh Out The Slammer.' 

There was also a small filing drawer with Taylor's name on it. Some half-open drawers had dried flowers sticking out of them. 

Many Swifties sported colorful beaded bracelets - a hallmark of Swift fandom.

In February Swift took to Instagram to share a photo of some artwork for the record, which featured a black and white photo of herself and 'I love you, it's ruining my life' written over her shoulder as well as the list of songs.

Side A begins with the Post Malone collaboration, Fortnight, and is followed by the album's title track, My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys and Down Bad.

While Side B has So Long, London, But Daddy I Love Him, Fresh Out the Slammer, and Florida!!!, with the latter song featuring Florence + the Machine.

Side C offers Guilty as Sin?, Who's Afraid of Little Old Me?, I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can), and 'Ioml'.

The final part of the album, Side D, has I Can Do It With a Broken Heart, The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived, The Alchemy, Clara Bow and bonus track The Manuscript.

The Blank Space songstress announced the release of her album when she picked up the Best Pop Vocal Album for Midnights at the Grammy Awards.

She said in her acceptance speech: 'I want to say thank you to the members of the Recording Academy for voting this way.

'But I know that the way that the Recording Academy voted is a direct reflection of the passion of the fans.

In February Taylor shared the full track list for her brand new album Tortured Poets Department which includes collaborations with two top artists 

She is now dating Travis Kelce after her split from Joe  

'So I want to say thank you to the fans by telling you a secret that I've been keeping from you for the last two years, which is that my brand new album comes out on April 19.'

Meanwhile her boyfriend Travis Kelce, 34, was full of praise about her upcoming album, calling it 'unbelievable.'

The NFL star confirmed he has heard bits of the record. 'I have heard some of it, yes, and it's unbelievable,' the Kansas City Chiefs tight end gushed at a press conference in Las Vegas, ahead of the Super Bowl, as per The Kansas City Star.

'I can't wait for her to shake up the world when it finally drops,' Travis added.
