We get it — committing to a subscription is a big deal, even when it’s bookish and fun. That’s why we’re here with honest answers and cozy clarity. Whether you're wondering how often you'll be billed, what's inside, or how to gift a crate to a fellow reader, we've got you covered.

Think of this as your go-to guide — from unboxing your first cozy read to joining the book club community. And if we missed something? Just reach out. We’re readers too, and we’re always happy to help. 💛

How It Works

1) Apply once: Use the form above; select your genre and whether you prefer a Box feature, Book Club, or both.

2) Confirm details: If selected, we’ll align on month, quantity (typically 50–150), and extras (bookplates, inserts).

3) Deliver & promote: Ship items 4–6 weeks before your feature; we’ll create assets and schedule cross-promo.

We are so excited to get to know you and feature you and share your books with our readers.
