Seven Great Book subscriptions

If you want to improve upon your own writing, then read more, this is what many of the great authors recommend (and keep doing), becoming immersed in great new books to improve upon their own talent and boost their inspiration too.

But even if you’re not a writer, who doesn’t love curling up with a great new book?

The great news is, there are plenty of services out there which will send you books on a regular basis, most of which are curated by other book lovers and will get you looking at either old classics you may have missed, favs from familiar authors or new titles hot of the book press.

There are even some services which will box up your new title along with other goodies to enhance your reading experience.

So, if you haven’t thought about a book subscription service, here are some you might want to take a look at first.
 
One – Once Upon a Book Club (Adult Edition)

This service offers classic books packaged with three to five wrapped gifts, a printed quote, discussion questions and read dates so that you can read in the same timeframe as others (for live discussions). The gifts within the box have details on as to when they should be opened, this is at certain part of the book as you read it, which makes for a great interactive experience.

The service currently starts from $64.99
 

Two – The Bookish Shop

Every month they send out a newly released book and themed items to you, offering options for both adult and young adult too, they mix up what’s sent each month to ensure you never double up on the themed elements.
