The Story So Far...
Established in 2019 headed up by a small team of book lover's with extensive ecommerce experience, we are now one of the UK's leading online book subscription services.
We now offer over 12 different book subscription categories to cater for all ages and interests. Our book subscriptions are a fantastic way to treat yourself or to gift to a loved one!
Committed to Making a Difference
Did you know that every year, over 77 million books go to landfill. We believe reducing this number is key to reducing our carbon emissions.That is why when we hand pick our books, we check the condition of each book carefully & books go on to find new loving homes and homeowners.
Social and envionmental responsibility is the core of our business. We believe in that small acts change the world which is why with every new book subscription we contribute towards planting more trees in the UK and abroad. It's all about the trees, that's why we've partnered with Ecologi who support responsible climate projects including
