Book-a-Month Club

The perfect gift idea for yourself or a lucky recipient! Subscribe to our Book-a-Month program and receive the gift of expertly curated books all throughout the year. It truly is the gift that keeps on giving.

Tell us what you or the recipient is passionate about and loves to read. Our expert booksellers will handpick the next favorite book and mail it to you or the recipient. And now you have an option to add music & movies!

We select each book, DVD, or CD specifically for you or the recipient based on information you provide about favorite books, writers, literary genres, interest and hobbies, or films and music, and ship them anywhere in the United States or to a government address overseas. Don’t know what the gift recipient likes to read? We are happy to correspond with the gift recipient to discuss book selections and areas of literary interest prior to beginning the program.

The beauty of the program is its customization. The price of the program is simply the cost of the book plus shipping, and you may select all hardcovers, all paperbacks or an alternating mix of both. You can select a book to ship each month, or every other month. We select books from our entire inventory of new releases, so there’s a slim chance that the recipient has read the book already. We are also happy to take requests for specific titles.

The Music-and-Movie Club gift program can be chosen separately or in combination with the Book-a-Month Gift Program. DVDs and CDs will be specially selected from our expertly curated in-store inventory.
