Great gift idea! I bought a 3 month book voucher. Gifted to my friend and she rated 4 stars! She said one book was a little weird haha but I guess that comes with receiving a random selection! But s... See more

Signing up for a year following my three month trial subscription. Can’t recommend enough. I look forward to my surprise book coming every month. I managed to buy a gift voucher for the year subscription as a special offer. Really pleased and looking forward to the next year of wonderful books!

Expand your reading and your mind

Needing to get back into reading (and feeling) proper books instead of on a tablet I purchased an annual supscription to the Mystery Book Club. It did not disappoint!
First of all the books come wonderfully wrapped and the choice of genre each month is a wonderful surprise. Out of the 12 books I've received only 1 I didn't particularly care for after reading it (although it has gained rave critic reviews) and another started strong but petered out by the end. The remainder have been either thought-provoking or entertaining and sometimes both.
I've now started off another annual subsvription and the first book is another intriguing one!
Thoroughly recommended

Excellent Subscription, Excellent Gift

I absolutely love the subscriptions of The Mystery Book Club - I’ve bought them as gifts for many people too and they love the subscription just as much. The books I have received through my subscription have all been excellent and all so different - it encourages me to read genres I would probably never choose myself! The packaging is beautiful too.

Excellent idea

Excellent idea! Beautifully wrapped parcels landing on your doorstep once a month. Great selection and clearly well thought through. I would highly recommend the subscription as a present!

A nurturing and broadening experience

I read as often and as much as work and life will afford me, but it's hard to find new work by writers you don't already know. When I do venture outside my little circle of favourites, I'm often disappointed, and find myself wandering back to the path well travelled. This club is great for someone like me. The selection is carefully curated by people who really know what they're doing. Every book sent so far has been enjoyable, interesting yet firmly not something I would've chosen for myself. Each is a nurturing and broadening experience. I await a new delivery with hunger.

I first purchased a 12 month…

I first purchased a 12 month description in July 2020 for my daughter as a birthday present. She has been very pleased with every book delivered so far and the service I have received in terms of assistance or simply answers to questions asked has been excellent. Very impressed and pleased with this company and I purchased gift card for another 12 months subscription, once the current one expires, as a Christmas present.

Excellent service and books.

Fantastic customer service

Wonderful experience. Bought their gift cards as Christmas presents - a small issue was resolved promptly (overnight!) - and I'm excited to see what the recipients will get over the coming months.
