1. Choose a book subscription category and subscription period - monthly (recurring) or fixed term (1, 3, 6 or 12 months).
2. Give us some information about the reader to help us personalise their book subscription.
3. Sit back and wait to be pleasantly surprised with a new gift-wrapped book each month.

As featured in

• Love your book guarantee

  We take a lot of care to ensure that each book we send out is just right for you and your reading tastes. If you happen to receive a title that you’re unhappy with as part of your subscription, we will exchange it, subject to our Returns policy.

• Exchange a book if you already own it

  If we send you a book that you already own, just let us know and we’ll send you a replacement book, at no additional cost to you. Then simply return the original title back to us in the envelope provided, in as-new, unread condition.

• Our service commitment

  We’re proud to offer a service that puts you, the reader, first. We always strive to provide the best experience to each of our subscribers. Our pricing is transparent and there are no hidden costs or charges. Should you have any questions or concerns before, during or after your subscription, please feel free to get in touch with us.
