Book of the Month Reviews

Experience

As an avid reader, I was really excited about Book of the Month. However, the options to choose from were less than exceptional. I also wish there was an option to choose paperback because I do not like hardcovers, nor the higher price for hardcovers. It has a lot of potential, but just missed the mark for me personally.

Feedback

The kicker that made me never want to rejoin is just how ANNOYING the cancellation process is. Who still has to call to cancel nowadays??? Let me click a cancel button. If the cancellation was easier, I honestly probably would come back every few months or so. But you want millennials to CALL? Nooooope.

I am a huge fan of Book of the Month. I really appreciate that if you're not interested in any of the options for that month, you can easily skip OR you can choose from a smaller selection of past books. I look forward to the beginning of every month and getting to see the choices.

I really enjoyed having book of the month, I had it for a while. I liked being able to go outside of my comfort zone and to try new books I normally wouldnt have thought to pick up. I also liked the monthly price. $10 for a brand new book is amazing. It was like a present each month

Would have loved more monthly choices.

Made a great gift! Probably wouldn't buy it for myself since I like to research books and add to my own to-read list but would definitely gift again.

This is one of my most favorite subscription services ever. I love reading but i also love finding new and upcoming books, and this is the perfect way to do so at an incredibly affordable price.

Sometimes i wish there was more of a selection, and i run out of room for all the hardback books

It's how I'm building my library now. Great book suggestions! It's also awesome to get new releases at a reduced cost! Can't recommend this more.

Must have subscription for book lovers! I love having the option to choose from 5+ different books each month and having discounted access to books on my TBR list. BOTM has some really fun perks & it's nice to be able to skip a month if I'm not into any of the featured books. Shipping is also insanely fast! I'll definitely be renewing my subscription when it's up.
