Testimonials
“I cannot believe the simply wonderful selection of books which has landed here. Absolutely brilliant variety – a couple of old favourites, which I can’t wait to re-read, unread books I have had on my list The Diary of a Provincial Lady, which I have already pounced on and am reading with joy. Unknowns with tempting dust-jacket summaries, and, poetry. I cannot thank you enough. Books to enjoy, to lift the spirits, to share, and I already feel better and am looking forward to the next few weeks more than I was before I opened the box.
Thank you for such a loving gift of literary pleasure.” (August 2020)
“I was so thrilled to receive my book bundle – what a rich selection of titles, all so inviting and appealing. As well as being all new to me, it feels like they were magically hand-picked to accord with my interests. It was such a pleasure to unpack them one by one, exclaiming at each new discovery. Thank you so much – what a lovely gift to receive, it will keep me immersed in book heaven for some time.” (June 2020)
