How it Works

From Track to Mailbox in Four Simple Steps

Step 1: Find your Reading Track

Take our 2-minute quiz (or just pick one) to tell us whether you're Gentle, Steady, or Immersive right now, along with your genre preferences and any books you've already read. We use this to make sure every book we send is genuinely right for you.

Step 2: Subscribe to Standard or Premium

Standard gets you two pre-loved books a month, matched to your Track from our pre-loved shelves. Premium gets you two books as well - a fresh new book plus a pre-loved match. Pay monthly, or pay annually and save. Monthly plans can be paused or cancelled any time by email. Annual plans are a single upfront payment covering the year, so they're non-refundable mid-term, but you can switch Tracks any time and turn off auto-renewal whenever you like.

Step 3: We curate your books

This is the fun part!

Each cycle, I take your Reading Track, your genre preferences, and any notes you've shared, and I match new and pre-loved/second-hand books to you.

I'm looking for books that:
✓ Match your mood (genuinely, not just loosely)
✓ Are standalone or Book 1 (no mid-series frustration, unless a series is requested)
✓ Rated 3.5+ on Goodreads (quality matters)
✓ Are in Good or Excellent condition
✓ Feel right (yes, this is subjective but that's the point)

Every box is different because every reader is different.

I'm choosing books I'd genuinely recommend to a friend. That's you. We're friends now.

Step 4: Your Box Arrives

Your book box arrives at your door, every month.

Inside:
📚 Your books (wrapped with care)
💌 Personal notes
🏷️ Reading Track labels
📋 Packing slip with book details

Billed monthly or annually - your choice. Monthly plans pause or cancel any time by email. Annual plans are paid upfront for the year and non-refundable mid-term, but you can turn off auto-renewal any time.

What Happens Next?

You read them. Take your time. No rush.

Keep the ones you love. Some books will become part of your shelf-identity.

Send back or pass along the rest. Donate them, give to friends, leave in a Little Free Library. Books are meant to circulate! If you'd like to send your books back, we'll accept good and excellent condition books for credit off your next box.

Next month, a new box lands, matched fresh to your Track. The cycle continues and you discover new favourites. Books circulate and everyone reads.

Common Questions

Can I change my Reading Track?
Yes! Just email me and I'll update it before your next box.

What if I already own a book you send?
Email me within 48 hours and I'll swap it out. No hassle.

Are books really in good condition?
Yes. Good or Excellent only. For our second hand books they will be clearly read but no tears, highlighting, or water damage. Spine creases show a book's been loved - that's a feature, not a bug.

Can I pause or cancel?
Monthly: any time, just email me. Annual: it's a single upfront payment for the year so it's non-refundable mid-term, but email me any time and I'll stop it renewing into another year.
