Worth the money

Jul 29, 2020

For the price you get decent books! Each one priced at $15 or more if they're brand new so $15 a month for 4 used books isn't bad at all!! I just wish that I could chose what kind of genre I receive for the 4 book bundle, you can with the other ones but not this subscription! Kinda sucks seeing as I'm only really in romance and fantasy books!

Shipping slow, subscription box good

Jul 27, 2020

I have not received my 3rd shipment.

The first two shipments were late, but the books were not bad.
I am still looking forward to the 3rd subscription box. This subscription is a gift for my mom.

Good service for used books.

Good Books, Horrible Shipping

Jul 13, 2020

The books I've received so far are good, but the shipping is horrible. I have to email them every month to receive my book (days past the "latest send by" date). Only then do they email me a tracking number - which they clearly create AFTER receiving my email because it doesn't actually ship for another 1-3 days. To top it off, I've never received a response from an employee - only a shipping label.

I want to recommend them to others, but until this gets resolved, I can't do that.

First Month

I loved the condition of the used books! However the two books that were sent to me are not exactly my taste. I will definitely pass them on though!

I am not overly pleased with choice of books. Would like more on psychological thrillers.

About those Genres...

Mar 26, 2018

This review is going to be of mixed results... For one thing, the price really is so affordable that I feel like I have no right to complain. The books do seem like they're worth it too. So why three stars? Well, they really aren't good at giving you the genres of your choosing. My first box was cooking and fantasy. YES to fantasy, but a very very hard no to cooking. I despise cooking books. I contacted them as soon as I could to fix this. Now, I gave them the benefit of the doubt. It's possible that something fudged up on my end or the computer's end when we got this subscription box rolling. Except...Box 2 was charged before I even received Box 1. That's always a red flag. STILL, I thought "This is really cheap, I'll just let it go." So here I am with Box 2. Fantasy- yay! And... COOKING. I got cooking AGAIN. I'm beyond on the fringe with them as the fantasy books seem worthwhile. But cooking? AGAIN? I don't know how to get through to these people that there is obviously some sort of issue that they are clearly not addressing. Honestly, I'd rather pay more for these individual fantasy books than receive a book genre that I despise. It's an immediate turn off.

None

This is my first box. I was expecting at least one horror since that a genre I picked but hopefully next month I get some. Overall Satisfied.

Not sure yet.

Dad was fairly interested in the first two titles he got month one. The second month wasn’t a good match and he chose to donate them. Pretty sure I chose the correct categories.

Cool idea

Updating my review. Really great idea but my "shipment is being prepared" for three weeks now. In this day and age, that's a bit unacceptable.

December Box

Dec 11, 2019

One of my picks was an outdated travel guide to Thailand- not very useful. The other one looks interesting though

Not for me
