This subscription includes one surprise hand-wrapped paperback book per month and usually contains a letter from the author.
*Romance*
Books perfect for a glass of bubbly or for relaxing in the bubble bath! For adult readers who enjoy romance, chick-lit, romantic comedies, and stories of friendships. If you enjoyed books like "People We Meet on Vacation," "One Last Stop," and/or "The Proposal," and enjoy authors like Elin Hilderbrand, Beth Harbison, and Jane Green, this is probably the best subscription for you!

What our readers say
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"A Wonderful Subscription!"
"I've had The Book Drop for a little over a year now, and the excitement is still there to see what book I'm going to get for that month! I've tried out a few different subscription options since I read a little bit of everything, and the choices are wonderful! Some books I received I would have never thought to pick up if it wasn't for this subscription. Can't wait to see what other 2023 picks I receive!"
