Not shipping anymore!

I don’t know what Is going on with the business but the past few shipments have been SO LATE. I just received my SEPTEMBER subscription and it is NOVEMBER. They are supposed to ship by the end of the current month if your subscription is paid by the 15th of that month. My OCTOBER subscription hasn’t even been sent out and it’s almost thanksgiving.
I tried contacting the seller and they have not answered ANY of my messages. Cratejoy also contacted them and they didn’t respond either. I have had this subscription for over a year and I am sad that I am now going to be cancelling because of this. If they decide to come back with an explanation I would come back.
So very disappointed.

Such a cute and fun box! Originally, I ordered this Peruse Book Club monthly box for my Mother 'n law, but she has suffered with some aging and memory issues. She didn't believe the box was hers, etc... So, instead of confusing her month to month, I had the Peruse Book Club sent to me instead. I just got "my" first box and it is adorable and cute and fun and colorful. Can't wait to read the book, put on my new sox, share my lapel pins, and drink tea. It was packaged prettily. I'm really happy with "my" gift.

Love this book box. Just when I need to find a new book to buy, my peruse box shows up, and I have not been disappointed. I have enjoyed all of my boxes. I keep thinking just one more then I will be done, but I can't quit this box.

Quickly becoming a favorite book box!

UPDATE: This is a great book subscription that I am thoroughly enjoying. I've had the pleasure of receiving 6 of their boxes so far. And, am also reading the books featured in the other boxes I did not get each month. Their book selection is top notch, but I think the Missing Treasures of Amy Ashton book has been my favorite overall. They always choose creative and meaningful gifts to coordinate with the story. They also have good customer service. HIGHLY recommend this book box for yourself or for a gift.
To say I'm addicted to book subscription boxes would be a huge understatement. I've received HUNDREDS over the past 2 years... no joke. Peruse is quickly turning into my favorite one. I've received 2 boxes from them so far and feel like they hit it out of the park both times. I haven't read my second book yet but, I can say that the first book and companion gifts went together perfectly. It's like they took the essence of the book and pulled the most relevant parts of it out and gifted them to me with fun, usable items and recipes. I loved it so much! I'll definitely be extending this subscription.

Ooops accidentally left my review on the Mystery Club, so I'll repost here!
I have received the Mom Jeans and Other Mistakes box so far, and it is so much fun!
The items were all really cool - a manicure set, a bluetooth speaker in a really cute color, and the sweetest little chocolates! The book was signed by the author too which was kinda special. I hope my future boxes are as cool!

I’m super disappointed in this. I ordered this end of November. The only thing I’ve received was that a tracking number was created. Save your money and look elsewhere. Peace and Pages has been great so far!

Hi!
I’m so sorry for the inconvenience with your order!
Your package was dropped off at the post office when the label was created, so it looks like it may have been lost by the carrier. We sent an email to you so that we can assist you in resolving this issue further.
Great Quality!

Just got the Halloween Horror box in the mail! I'm a huge fan of The Shining, and this box is so cool! I loved the themed items, the bath bomb smelled amazing and loved that it had a crystal inside!! and the chocolates were cute and delicious. My favorite part was the super cool copy of the book, I have been searching for a hardcover and can never find one. Great box in terms of quality!
Thank you for the kind review, I'm so happy that you enjoyed your Halloween box!

The owner was so so helpful and was able to send out a box to my friend for her birthday same day! She gave me a list of all the ones that were currently available and let me pick for the first one. Very grateful,
I'm happy that we were able to get your friend's birthday gift to her, I hope that she enjoyed her Peruse box!
Just do it

I love this box! I subscribed a few months ago from an Instagram ad and have been so happy with all of the titles so far. They are such a fun variety, and much less "cheesey" than some other book subscriptions I've been a member of.
The items I've gotten have been useful and tie to the book so wonderfully.
My only issue is that sometimes the boxes ship a few days after the end of the month, but that hasn't been problematic for me.
I haven't participated in any of the virtual meetings yet due to schedule conflicts, but would love to join at some point!
Hi Barbara,
Thank you for your review! We're so glad that you've been enjoying your subscription to Peruse.
We strive to include books that customers will be excited about each month :)

I first subscribed to The Wife Upstairs shipment and loved it!! The set of cards was the cutest thing, Compartes chocolate was so delicious, and I loved the bee necklace and its connection to the story. Can't wait for my first ever book club meeting at the end of the month! :D
Excellent Quality

First of all, these boxes are adorable. I absolutely love the themed gifts that come with the books, and the recipes have all come out beautifully so far. I've only received two shipments, but both have been in excellent shape with nothing damaged.
As I said, I've only gotten two boxes, so I'm not sure if this is how things always are, but I have the classics box and so far both have been British classics. There's nothing wrong with this of course, they were both excellent, but if you exclusively send out British classics then I think that should be made clear somewhere so that someone doesn't get their hopes up for a more culturally diverse selection. Again, I've only gotten two of these so this could very well just be a coincidence, I just thought it was worth mentioning.

We're so happy that you are loving the boxes that you have received so far! We do include books in our Classics box outside of British classics! This month's shipment will include a beautiful copy of an American classic
Beautiful box!

Lovely book box, I have looked into alot of different book boxes and I was pleasantly surprised with this box. It shipped very quickly. I love the new pens and the notecards. It was nice to receive some items that I would have not have typically picked out for myself.

Received my Fiction box as a birthday gift this week. It is so much fun, and I was extra excited because this book was actually on my "to read" list. I think my favorite item was the adorable library card notepad, I just wish there were more!

This box is high quality and has fun and clever items that relate to the book. I ordered this as a gift for my best friend and I know she's gonna love it. We used to be in a bookclub together before quarantine, so I'm going to join too so we can continue our club :)
Hi Sarah,
We're glad that you're excited about our subscription book club! Book discussions are such a great way to connect.

Received this as a gift from my boyfriend and I'm so excited! I read the authors other books but hadn't picked up her new one yet. The box items were so cute and I love the scent of the candle for winter.

Such a cute box! Seller was very responsive, and assisted me with my shipping needs. I joined the fiction club, and the items were full products and very cute! Love that the book I got was a new release that I hadn't read yet :)
