Let customers speak for us
from 119 reviewsAbsolutely love the books chosen for me, you got it so right 🥰
Spot on. Books that I wouldn't have picked for myself but I am really enjoying so far
The books where perfect and the customer service was great. Where really helpful when I couldn't find my account.
Exactly what I like and I'm very happy with it
I have been very impressed with my mythology books so far. They've been well tailored to my preferences and ive enjoyed every single one. Highly recommend.
Love the books, hasnt heard of 2 of them and the 1 i have been wanting to read but hadnt got :)
Love love love this book box.
I love the books i got and cant wait to dive in to them just not sure which to read first! Cant wait for next months
Surprised, as it wasnt something I would have picked, but finished the book in one day. Cant wait for my next box.
The books arrived on time and both of them seem to be interesting and the type of books I read
The picks for my horror books were really good and definitely considered my interests and Goodreads data. It felt so personalised!
Absolutely fantastic, had a little blip where Evri lost the first box and Charlotte from theBook Box sent out a replacement immediately. Books are well thought out dependin on what you are into and are individually selected for you not just mass picked for everybody. Cannot wait for my next box!
In love with the books 🖤
Amazing books one that’s been on my wish list for ages and one I’ve never heard of but I’m so excited to read it
I ordered this as a gift for my sister! Very pleased so far. would use again
