Anyone found/tried a book subscription ?

I’m thinking of getting my mum one for Xmas but they all seem a bit highbrow or genre specific. She enjoys historical fiction/family sagas/no 1 ladies detective agency/ type novels as well as more literary novels and biographies but not anything really difficult or high brow. She doesn’t really enjoy thrillers or crime. Anyone found a monthly subscription service for popular novels?

Yes, one of my daughter gets Owlcrate and and another gets fairyloot boxes. Sometimes the books are good, sometimes bad and sometimes surprising but they always have a theme and even if the book itself isn't great they really enjoys getting the little gifts that come with them every month and the surprise of it all is very fun and look forward to them coming. These ones are fantasy related but you can find subscription boxes for pretty much anything. Perhaps look around the book lovers side of youtube and see what subscriptions they can recommend for specific genres. If it exists somebody will be reviewing it.
