I read all sorts of books I’d never otherwise have discovered. Some of these were unforgettable. Just one of my books was unreadable for me - a promising story but far too violent from the outset.

I loved the surprise element of opening the packaging to see what was in store. I found getting to the end of one book, knowing I was going to have a brand new read dropping through the letter box, was quite exciting It was a birthday present which kept giving!

I often think I should leave a review on things but always forget! However I have absolutely loved receiving these books. I have enjoyed every single one I received over the last 6 months.

I’ve been buying subscriptions for my 96 year old Granny for years and she loves it. She say the books are always excellent and always arrive just at the right time. It really is the gift that keeps on giving!

I absolutely loved the 3 books that were chosen, given that I didn't give much information, the choices were spot on. Beautifully presented too, makes a lovely surprise through the post.

I was a bit apprehensive about this service, as so many subscription services feel very generic and you pay a lot of money for what appears to be mass produced/mailed.
However, after reading The Willoughby Book Club's website and comparing it with others I felt most confident they could deliver what I wanted and my goodness their subscription is great!
I brought a 12 month subscription for my grandmother who has been an avid reader of whodunit crime novels her whole life. I explained her preferences in great detail in the notes and explained she had read all the works of Agatha Christie and similar authors and waited nervously for her first book (a birthday gift) to arrive... It came and was amazing! The subsequent books have also been outstanding and each month she can't wait for her next one!
I would suggest if you order the subscription to be honest about your reading habits, likes and dislikes - as well as what you have read before to get an accurate subscription but honestly I think this is a stellar gift!

I have really enjoyed this gift of Willoughby books. I have read books that I would not otherwise have done which has been exciting. I had already read some of the books and the friendly staff quickly gave me substitutes.

I’ve been using Willoughby Book Club for personalised book selections and I’m really impressed with how well they match my reading taste.
Some of the books I’ve received include The Bear and the Nightingale, Fluke, and The Unmaking of June Farrow. Each one felt thoughtfully chosen and aligned with the kind of stories I enjoy — immersive, atmospheric, and engaging.
It’s a lovely experience to receive a surprise book that genuinely suits your reading style. I’ve discovered books through this service that I might not have picked up on my own.
Highly recommended for readers who enjoy personalised book recommendations and discovering new authors.

I am surprised to find that receiving a book a month from The Willoughby Book Club is the best thing that happens to me on a regular basis.
I am surrounded by illness and death and I struggle to see the point in it all, but i love receiving the notification that a book is on its way, I love opening the wrapper and I always love the surprise.
Over a couple of years, you have sent me works of fiction and non-fiction that I would never have chosen for myself, and I have devoured them all. You keep me going. Thank you.

This was a gift and it is one of the best gifts I have received. I am seven books into my subscription and every one has been spot on.

Such a beautifully packaged and thoughtful gift! Already ordering more for friends birthdays. Thank you!

I received a three month subscription and I really love the books that have been chosen so far (one to go!). They’ve listened to my feedback and matched my interests so well. Can’t wait to get the final book! I’d highly recommend Willoughby Book Club.
