RECIEVED 2 BOXES, THEN GHOSTED!
Peruse Book Club on Mar 2023
BUYER BEWARE! DON'T GIVE PERUSE YOUR MONEY!
EDIT!! AFTER RECEIVING 2 BOXES. THE THIRD SHIPMENT WAS NEVER MADE. NO COMMUNICATION FROM SELLER, CRATEJOY CUSTOMER SERVICE COULDN'T GET AHOLD OF PERUSE EITHER. CANCELED SUBSCRIPTION AND WAITING FOR REFUND
This subscription is a gift, and have already tried a different book subscription. This one has new items... yet, doesn't seem like much thought was put into... it was ok though. hopefully boxes throughout the year are better, to feel like it's worth the money.
Low scores on shipping and such because I tried several times to reach out to the seller with no avail. I ordered the subscription mid Oct. Didn't recieve the first box until dec. Last week. And the seller never once responded to the multiple attempts to reach them. Even seemed that Cratejoy tried to make 2nd attempts to communicate with my original emails. I was just relieved that my recipient recieved the subscription box at all. I hope the shipments going

If I could have a do-over with this gift, I would go a different route. if you do decide on this subscription, maybe take it for a spin first with the one or three month option. The packaging was cutely wrapped up. I thought this would be a really fun deal for a gift... disappointed in the quality/items. although both books have been read and they were great books and both are within the selection of genre.
UPDATE: Seller contacted me immediately to open a friendly dialog about the subscription box, that being said, I am changing my stars but the context of the review, still remains. I am very impressed with the friendly and kind hearted email that has been exchanged. side note in no way do I think the the...
