    What our readers say

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    "Best reason to have a mailbox"

    "The Book Drop is such a great "book of the month" subscription. I love supporting an independent bookstore *and* receiving a literary surprise in my mailbox. While I've only been a member two months, I've enjoyed the choice of books, as well as the included materials. Consider me a long-term subscriber!"

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    "Best Book Subscription"

    "I love my Middle Grade book subscription. Each month, I get a carefully selected middle grades book for my classroom. Usually the books are ones that have been on my TBR and to purchase list, but I love when I get a book I haven’t heard of before. They are great at finding diverse and unique reads that appeal to many readers. The subscription is incredibly well-priced and shipping is speedy."

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    "Great Middle Grade & YA subscriptions"

    "I have gifted both the middle grade & YA subscription to my kids and both have been incredibly well received! The books chosen by The Book Drop are unique, interesting and fully capture the attention of my tween & teen."

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is The Book Drop?

    The Book Drop is a surprise monthly book subscription service created by Amanda Zirn Hudson, operational manager & frontlist book-buyer of Bethany Beach Books. We sadly understand that not everyone has a local, independent bookstore near them so our mission is to help bring the independent bookstore to readers. The Book Drop is owned & powered by Bethany Beach Books.

    When do you ship subscriptions?

    We ship subscriptions between the 16th-21st of each month. Readers will receive tracking via email as soon as we start preparing their mailing.

    When will I get my first book?

    Our subscriptions ship the same time every month: between the 16th-21st. Subscribe before the 15th of the month & receive your first book that same month. Subscribe after the 15th and your first book will ship the following month. As soon as we start packing your subscription, we send an email with tracking information. All one-time products from our shop ship within 2-3 business days (or on release date for pre-orders).

    Will my subscription auto-renew?

    All standard subscriptions auto-renew on the 1st of each month. Gift subscriptions are given the choice at checkout whether to auto-renew or not. Subscribers have the ability to skip, pause, or cancel via their Book Drop account.
