While we strive for a consistent release schedule, we prioritize creating a high-quality experience for our customers. This includes carefully selecting a book that meets our criteria and curating the additional bookish items that will be included in each box.
To create anticipation and excitement, a countdown timer will be displayed on the website prior to the opening of sales for each new book box. The sale window for each box will be open for a period of 30 days. Once the sale window closes, no further orders will be accepted for that particular box.
Please note that due to the curated nature of our boxes and the potential for limited edition items, each box may have a limited quantity available. We encourage you to place your order early to avoid disappointment.
4. Orders and Payment
You can place orders for our book boxes through the secure checkout process on our website. During checkout, you will be asked to provide your shipping address, billing address (if different), and chosen payment method. We accept various payment methods as displayed on the website. Your payment information will be transmitted securely using industry-standard encryption protocols. Once your order is placed, you will receive a confirmation email with all the details of your purchase. Please review this confirmation email carefully and contact us immediately if you notice any errors.
