First off, if you’re a book lover who has somehow never heard of book subscription boxes before, YOU’RE WELCOME.
Trust me, they’re about to become your new favorite thing. Young Adult, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Mystery, no matter what your favorite genre, there’s a book box for you.
Just imagine it, you’ve had a bad day, the world is getting you down, your introverted self just CANNOT deal with other humans any more. And then you come home to find a package in your mailbox. A package specifically curated just for you and your reading preferences. Most of these will even contain some sort of bookish swag, whether that is a cozy, literary themed candle, some soothing loose leaf tea, or even a tin of relaxing bath salts.
You see, the people behind these boxes are fellow bookworms. They KNOW how real the struggle is. How slowly your day can drag when all you can think about is finishing the latest novel that kept you up late the night before. And they’re here to help you cope!
