⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"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."
