Sooo... this review is about my experience as a whole. I love it SO MUCH. I am subscribed to 2 boxes : the murder one, and the fantasy one. The books selection is perfect and, so far, I have devoured each one of the books I have received. On the picture, the bottom books are read, the one in the middle reading in process, and the ones at the top are TBR.
I had to force myself to skip both boxes for the upcoming month, and will probably have to do so for the month after, for my wallet's sake. This being said, the price is worth its value.
Well done team!
As skways a good selection of books. The extras are always welcomed. I like the signed copy and tote bag the best. The book marks always come in handy. Very pleased with this month’s box
Ok collection of books but i was expecting 5 books with this collection my free one only 4 came however im sure ill love them when i start reading them
I chose every book in this box because of a secret sale (I love these sales). The free gift bag was a lovely touch and the bookmarks were great as always. I love ABOS, and have had over 30 special boxes. My reading experience would be boring without them.
When I first saw one of the choices I thought that it was not my kind of Fantasy. However, I was mistaken because once I started to read it I was drawn into the story. It goes to show that you should always give a book a chance.
Looking forward to reading these books - nice touch to have one signed by the author and the author's background note about how they wrote the book. Like most of the extras but not sure I will use the magnet.
I loved that one of the books was an advanced copy (and signed!). The extras in the box were great, and I loved each pick. Can’t wait for the next box!
I might upgrade my subscription - a curated box of goodies personally for me - I know I’m
Going to love the books having read the blurbs, and so many lovely goodies. Can’t wait till next month!
These two books and bookmarks were securely packaged in the 'A Box of Stories' green cardboard box and protective bag. I'm glad everything survived the journey.
Fab box that does what it says! 4 mystery books to broaden my horizons and wven got my daughter interested! Fast delivery, well packaged, and helping save books!! Perfect
This box was amazing, the best one I’ve received so far. I loved all the extras and the signed book. There were four books (2hardback, 2 paperback) in the box, so itll keep me busy until thd next box arrives.
If you do not like your box you can easily return it. No questions asked! Ship it back and receive a 100% refund. Alternatively before the next box ships you could change your preferences on the online preference form or chat with someone from our customer success team.
You can't find out which books will be in your surprise box until you receive it. That's part of the surprise!
To avoid receiving duplicate books, we keep track of every book we send your way. As long as you use the same email address every time you place an order, you will never receive the same title.
