There’s something special about monthly book subscriptions, especially when they’re more than just a book in a box. If you’re looking for something out of the ordinary, something a little bit more extraordinary, then Once Upon a Book Club’s monthly book boxes are just what you need.

We have created every box to transform your reading journey into a memorable adventure.

Here’s why our book subscriptions are a must-have for every book lover.

The Thrill of Anticipation

There is something about the thrill of anticipation as you wait for your book box to arrive. Just take a moment to imagine how, every month, a whimsical box arrives at your doorstep, filled with beautifully wrapped surprise gifts to be opened at specific points in the story. It’s like celebrating a birthday month after month! 

Each of our boxes is thoughtfully curated, making the experience much more than just reading. You open each gift as you progress, adding an element of mystery and excitement. As one of our fabulous customers, Jordan P., said, “Once Upon a Book Club reignited my love of reading. I forgot how fast I can read and how much I enjoy reading.” 

Our monthly book boxes offer a refreshing and exciting alternative to your everyday reading experience.
