Fresh reading, monthly

A Bookbag subscription makes a special gift, or refreshes your own reading habits.

Our booksellers choose the freshest new writing, under-the-radar indie releases, and rediscovered classics. These are books we've loved in the bookshop, always with a Bookbag feel.

Books are wrapped and packaged with a hand-written note and delivered to your door.

Your first month comes with a tin of specialist tea (pictured) from our neighbours The House of Hope & Mercy in the Jungle.

How it Works

Subscriptions are available as 3, 6, or 12 month.

Choose Fiction, Non-Fiction, Mix, or Poetry, or Children's.

Collect from the bookshop, or have delivered to your door.

If you would like to tweak a subscription, include or avoid particular genres, get in touch.

The Small Print

Your Bookbox will be dispatched in the first week of each calendar month.

If you’re a new subscriber and you sign up before the 20th of the month, we’ll send your first Bookbox out right away so you don’t miss out.

Bookpost will be sent via Royal Mail, and is only available in the UK. Postage is part of your subscription so there isn’t an additional shipping charge. 

While we can’t account for every letterbox size, we’ll always try and keep the Bookbox selection letterbox friendly - there won’t be any posties trying to force War and Peace through your door.

If you have already got the book on your shelf just get in touch with us - or pop into the shop with it -  and we’ll arrange a swap for you. 

Choose your subscription
