Book Subscription Gift

Has anyone had a book subscription or bought one for someone else? I was wondering if there were any that were particularly good? Have been looking at Daunt, Mr B's, Willoughbys etc.

I get one from teatime bookshop. The books are secondhand, although you can't really tell they are. You can get different sorts of genres, and you get biscuits and either tea/coffee/hot chocolate with it. I love it, and have read some great books that I may otherwise have missed. Been getting it for nearly 2 years.

Thank you. I’d never heard of that. Sounds lovely.

I have a Mr B’s subscription and am very pleased with it. A lot of the books have been real gems that I would never have come across on my own. When you start the subscription you fill in an extensive questionnaire to see what you like reading and all sorts of things about yourself. Each month you receive an advance spoiler email with the name of the author so you can accept or reject it.

Brilliant - thank you, that’s really good to know.
