Read the main communication regarding the price increase

From 1st December we are increasing the prices of our Boxes. However, as an existing subscriber we are extending the existing prices for you till 1st April 2022.


We have kept prices unchanged since 2018 and have shouldered a big part of the increasing prices of books, logistics & shipping, materials and other charges, especially over the past year. As book lovers we know it’s not ideal, but the price change will allow us to continue working with the best partners and continue to improve our standards over the coming years.


The new prices are:

Base Boxes: £14.99 to £18.99

Genre Boxes: £21.99 to £25.99


We’re giving you 4 additional months at the current price. This means, while the changes will be implemented on the website from 1st December, as existing subscribers the new prices for you will be effective only from 1st April 2022.


Our Delighter Programme will continue unchanged with a Delighter in every 3rd box. If you are currently on a special promotional plan such as 10% off on your box, we are extending it by another year till the end of 2022.


We continue to offer the option to pause anytime, change your frequencies anytime and swap between the boxes along with Free Shipping across the UK.


We are grateful to you for supporting our mission and hope to continue enjoying your support. We promise to keep improving our services and be the book discovery box that delivers maximum happiness to book lovers across the UK.
