Beautiful book subscription?

[Cloud9Amy]

I was chatting earlier to a friend and she was trying to describe to me a book subscription type thing she saw advertised on tv recently for books which had beautiful covers. She wasn’t sure on the books but thinks they’re classics like Jane Austen/Brontes etc and you get a beautiful copy sent once a month. I think I also saw an ad for these too somewhere but have tried googling and can’t find them. Any ideas on what they are? Not a fan of subscriptions but I do love a beautiful book and want a better look at them

Modern female authors this is a lovely subscription box

Bert's Books do a Penguin Clothbound classics subscription

Thanks all, I’ll check these out

Mr. B's Emporium in Bath?
I got a subscription for DD last Christmas- the books themselves are just the usual covers but they come beautifully packaged and hand written and are picked for the recipient based on a series of questions you answer on their behalf. Not cheap, but DD has now had 6 and not had one she hasn't loved.

Persephone books?

Not a subscription, but the Folio Society produce lovely books (good bindings, paper, illustrations etc.) Often available at good prices in secondhand bookshops.

I was lucky enough to get a Mr B's subscription from DCs, @SolInvictus You are right - they are delightfully packaged. There's only been one I haven't enjoyed, although it had excellent reviews so maybe it was just me.

I'm a committed Kindle convert, and it's quite strange to revert to "proper" books. So far every book is one that I wouldn't have picked myself as I get all my recommendations on here!

Thanks all, especially @MovinOnUp who linked Timeless Classics as this was the subscription we were thinking of!

Very welcome. 🙂
