2.  Be automatically billed $42 every three months.

Enjoy FREE shipping in the US and $8/box to Canada. For Europe and Australia it's $30/box (ouch, we know, but it's the best we could do!).

3. Wait by your mailbox! 

And don't be surprised if you open your box to find a signed edition or other fun SWAG...

* FAQs *

WHEN DOES MY BOX SHIP? We ship on the 15th of March, June (Pride!), September, and December (Holidays!). You may order up until the 15th to get that box (otherwise your order will start with the next one).

IS THERE AN ON-LINE COMMUNITY FOR US TO CHAT ABOUT OUR BOOKS? Why yes, there is. Right here on Facebook and here on Goodreads, where you can find a list of all our chosen titles.

WHERE CAN I SEND A BOOK OR CATALOG FOR CONSIDERATION? If the book in question is from a reputable publishing house (no self publications, please), we would love to send it through our panel of readers. Please email Tammy - and thank you for thinking of us!

HOW DO I CANCEL MY SUBSCRIPTION? If you must cancel your subscription, we will dry our tears as you go to the link provided in your receipt email (or you can always email us and we can cancel for you). We're trying to make this the best club it can be, so if you have a second we'd love to know why you are leaving. Thank you for emailing us your feedback.
