Great Present and excellent customer service
Have had Bookabuy for over a year now and couldn't be happier. Their accuracy in choosing books I would enjoy and tea to match is excellent. They're also great at customer service, super helpful.

Love receiving my surprise book in the mail each month!
So delightful each month when my Bookabuy arrives. Bookabuy is a great gift for someone or yourself that keeps giving. I've got friends on to it too! Great book selections.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would
I‘d recommend Bookabuy to anyone looking for a unique gift idea for someone who loves reading. I‘ve gifted a subscription to a friend and my daughter has a current subscription.

Perfect gift and perfect treat!
After selecting which genre of books I wanted and completing a simple survey, my first book soon arrived. It was a book I had never read before by an author I was not familiar with, so in all honesty, I probably would not have considered it if I saw it on the shelf in the bookstore. Once I started reading, I could not put the book down! It was a fantastic read and every book that arrived in the following months for the duration of my subscription was the same experience. Bookabuy is a fab service for those who love to read but are perhaps a bi...Read more
t more time poor to figure out the next book or keen for inspiration for the next great read. I had such a great experience that I subsequently bought gift subscriptions for my friends - and they all had nothing but positive words to say. Thanks Bookabuy!1 comment

A surprise each month for a year was wonderful
I chose a year of crime as a gift and the recipient experienced a surprise each month. The curated books were of high quality and each were a satisfying read. The books arrived on time and always packaged with care. It was a great experience for both the recipient and me the gift giver.

I love Bookabuy!
I’ve been receiving bookabuy for over 18 months. And as someone who reads 60 odd books a year & has 200 in her to read bookcase someone they always nail it. They’re the best! I only wish I could subscribe to more. It’s my favourite time of the most. If you’re considering it, stop just do it. x

The Gift That Keeps on Giving
This is the best gift for any book lover.
The gift that keeps on giving.
Always a great read no matter the book that arrives. And something you may not pick usually, gives you some variety.

Great gift from my son
I received books I probably would not have selected myself. Opened up a whole new range of authors. Really looked forward to receiving each new book. Now looking for other books by some of these authors

Efficient & attentive
Bookabuy was so careful to pay attention to the books they should avoid when I ordered a subscription for my mother. The books were beautifully wrapped and arrived at monthly intervals. What a treat!

Great idea to encourage reading.
I was able to read some great books that I would not have otherwise picked up.
However, I think a feedback system where you can review the book that was sent would help to ensure satisfaction with further reads.

Bookabuy - Fantastic company
This is the third year of subscribing to Bookabuy and what a fantastic service it is. Really easy to set up the subscription and their selections for the genres I specified are excellent. It was originally purchased so I could try some new authors and it has exceeded expectations. There is something really special about receiving the Bookabuy parcel in the letter box each month! No plans to cease the subscription - a very happy customer. Thank you Bookabuy!

The gift that keeps on giving!
The choices are always appropriate genre for my taste ( I was asked to explain what I enjoy). They are recent publications.
They provide lovely bookmarks and sustainable wrapping! I keep the string! My subscription was a perfect gift from someone who knows my love of reading.

Good service if you enjoy reading!
Bookabuy isn’t a pretty good service if you enjoy reading books and are able to read them quickly. Having a book delivered that you may not have looked at before was really good and allowed me to explore new titles. The cost is the only issue I have as I can not afford $30+ per book. If cost is not an issue than the ease of having a new book at your door every month through bookabuy may be for you!

This is why we’ve also introduced recurring subscription options which allow a subscription to be billed and book to be delivered in monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly intervals.

Awesome gift idea!
I bought a subscription for my mum. She loved receiving a new book every month. The Bookabuy team did an amazing job choosing books that she would love. Would definitely recommend as a gift idea for someone else or yourself.

Best for the Genre Faithful
I’m an avid reader with eclectic taste in fiction (literary, historical, classics, magic realism, fantasy). I’d been lusting over a subscription service in the UK so was thrilled to find one in Australia. I signed up for a monthly Mixed Genre subscription and spent lots of time filling out details of my reading tastes.
Customer service was great and I enjoyed the monthly surprise factor but didn’t have a good strike rate with the chosen titles matching my tastes. After 6 months, I opted out.
I’d recommend Bookabuy if you’re a genre-specific reader but not for those whose tastes are less predictable.

I purchased Bookabuy as a gift for my daughter who loves to read. She absolutely loved getting a new book in the mail every month. Best gift ever! Since then my kids purchased me Puzzlepost for Christmas and I loved my first puzzle.

Best gift ever
I first tried bookabuy as a gift to myself. After a six month subscription, I was delighted and renewed for a following 12 months. I have also gifted subscriptions to book loving loved ones. I was super happy with the books that I received and experienced a range of reads, many which I would never have discovered on my own. I have never received a book that I already have which is nothing short of miraculous because I have heaps! I love that exchanges are possible if this happens. I'm impressed that I can also send gift subscriptions to my family in New Zealand. These subscriptions are a special treat and I frequently recommend them to others.
