Pairs well with
Questions
Can I ask for a certain era?
Yes. Tell your curator in your note: the Tudors, the Civil War, WWII, Regency England, anything. A real person reads it before choosing your books.
Can I avoid war stories?
Of course. Just say so in your note, and add the kinds of historical fiction you do enjoy.
Is this a good gift for my mom or grandmother?
It's one of our most-requested genres for gifts. Turn on “Send it as a gift” on the box page, choose her genres, and add a message.
Will I get books I already own?
Not one you tell us about. List the books and series you already own in your curator note. We also keep a record of every book (by ISBN) we send you, so we won't send you the same book twice. If a repeat ever slips through, you choose: 50% back on that box, or two extra books in your next one.
