It had a very slow start. I nearly gave up on it since the first act was so slow, but it was great once I made it to Part 2. I like books that get started a little quicker.
Emily W.
Loved this book! I think I have a new favorite author. I enjoyed the writer’s style a lot, specifically that the main characters were written to have wit and the intimate storylines were described in a classy way. I’m a romantic person, so I of course found it thoroughly satisfying that the main characters fell in love. As a young mom, I usually enjoy reading about motherhood but this main female character was a pleasure to read about. The ending was predictable but I didn’t mind that at all, even sometimes I find comfort in that. Again, amazing first choice! I’m so excited for my next book!
Jamie R.
The book is right in my usual genre choice, so I was super happy.
And I loved the little book-themed earrings that came with it.
Ashley H.
I liked the genre!
Nora J.
I liked how all the stories of the James, Hazel, Aubrey, and Colette came together and we get to know what the rest of their lives are like at the end of the book.
Tatum H.
I got a book that I had actually been really looking at and meaning to buy. I'm soo happy I got it and it is now at the top of my TBR list of the books I will actually read.
Meredith S.
I'm not the simpering weak female heroine type. They make me want to shoot them. I enjoyed my first read, "Reminders of Him". It had an intriguing plot.
I really very quickly and I finished that first book in about 5 hours. I would LOVE the option to have the next selection shipped more quickly that a pre-determined time frame. I'm sure other customers would like this too. Hey, if I burn through them all, then I'll want to buy more, right?
Maureen G.
Sea of Tranquility was a wonderful book for me! Thanks! I’m looking forward to my next Page 1 delivery!
Janice D.
So far, I have received three of my books. I haven't had time to read them all yet, but they sound so interesting! Whoever is choosing books for me is doing an amazing job! I am waiting for summer to be able to read them. It's amazing how you know what books I would enjoy! Thank you!!

While I have enjoyed the selections so far I would like more along the lines of New York Times Best seller books. It is totally my fault since I didn't elaborate on my interests. I also would enjoy an Historic Novel or a human interest story.
Thank you,
Virginina
Lynn P.
It was on my TBR list. Thanks!
Gail K.
Avoid heavy, tragic, emotionally draining stories....too much in the daily news. I want lighter, uplifting, happy, entertaining stories.....reading is my relaxation and escape.
Customer
Enjoyed the book. Would like a mystery
Judy M.
My first Page 1 book “Surviving Savannah” arrived just in time to read at the beach. Read, walk on the beach, read - perfect! Every time I looked at the ocean, I thought about Augusta and Lilly. And I moved South from the same Midwest county mentioned late in the book. So, I felt a special connection. Love the research that went into this novel. Inspired me to continue my own ancestry pursuit, and I found some stories that I’d like to weave into a book.
Makenzie M.
I've been subscribed for over a year now and have really enjoyed the experience. I have found new favorites that I have either never heard of or wouldn't have picked up otherwise! I love seeing what they picked out!
Sara S.
The few times I haven’t liked the book picked out the process was simple to get a replacement and the customer service has been phenomenal.
Patti T.
I enjoyed this book! I never would have selected this title on my own Thank you for expanding my literary world.
Beverly W.
Good family story with child leading the dialogue.
Lou P.
I enjoy receiving the books very much
Sherry R.
Got my first book that I had already read. Going to pass it on. Worried about this happening again as I am an avid reader averaging 3-5 books a week from the library or Kindle free books.
Molly N.
I just got it today but just renewed my subscription for this year. Loved the selections from last year. You all rock.
Rachel K.
I haven’t had a chance to read the book yet but I’m so excited about the book chosen for me!

The Mystery of the Exploding Teeth is fascinating, informative, and often funny. It is not a book that I would read continuously from cover to cover. Rather, I will keep it near the current book I'm reading and pick up this one to read a few of the stories before returning to my novel. I will pass this book to my brother when I'm finished; he will love it!
Emily G.
I've really loved all of the books that I've read from Page 1. The only one that I was "meh" about was "Infected" b/c the writer used misogynist language especially when describing women. Very clearly written by a man for men who want to believe they'd be uber strong/manly if confronted with a mind-controlling parasite. We didn't need to hear about how unattractive and weak the infected woman was. I felt like it was glorifying domestic violence by bringing the family violence history into the forefront as a reason the main character was able to "fight" the parasite - the strong, violent, and drunk men will survive no matter the cost. I liked the premise (esp during the pandemic), but I did not care for the author's voice.
Juanita S.
Enjoying the first book very much.
Janis O.
It was delivered in a reasonable amount of time. Beautifully wrapped. Perfect genre. Looking forward to my next book.
Katherine B.
I liked the variety of books I received. I also liked the combination of new releases and backlist books. All were quality selections aligned to my interests. I also broadened my knowledge of authors I like. Several books were initially unfamiliar, but have since become 5 ⭐️ favorites.
Mary Ann C.
I love the whole Page One experience. I look forward to my book every month and am never disappointed. This is my second subscription and highly recommend to all the avid readers out there.
john c.
I love historical novels and I also love books about strong women. The first two books I received were spot on. Getting a new book each month is certainly something to look forward to. Thank you.
Trisha V.
I loved the puzzle. Once I was done with it I brought it my library (I'm an elementary librarian) and kids LOVE working on it! :)
Danielle B.
Page 1 Books has been great so far! I'm waiting for book #3 but the first two have been awesome. Can't wait to see what my third month has in store. This was the best christmas present I've received in years. Such a creative and personalized gift each month!
Thanks!
Diane R.
David Sedaris, Jenny Lawson I know they is popular but I do not appreciate or enjoy snarky and sometimes mean spirited books.
Christine C.
I loved that between just 2 months I've had two very different books (great beach read fiction and fantasy series) which were both well written and were perfect for me. I love the variety and that they suited me. They did a great job finding me my Perfect reads! I still have 4 months and can't wait to see what's in store :)
Dawn H.
So far I’ve had two exceptional books that have been good in the best ways: emotionally riveting, drawing you in and educating via excellent storytelling. I am proud to display these books on my bookshelf.
michelle h.
Liked the added puzzle.
Lauren H.
Absolutely LOVED the book recommendation. It was a part of a series and I ended up ordering the rest of the series!
Kelly M.
Just started reading my first book - We Run the Tides this morning and got about 75 pages in and like it so far. At first I was worried the age of the main characters (13ish girls) would be too 'young' for me but I am enjoying the dialogue and setting. I used to live in San Francisco and so it's nostalgic (it's based there) as I know a lot of the references, so we'll see as I continue to dig in!
Katie K.
Really loved digging into the history of archaeology, painful though it sometimes is. This book really was spot on for me.
But maybe next time something fiction? I'm finding myself reading this one slowly to follow everything, and something a bit less involved would be great. (I really, REALLY do love this book, though!)
Stephen H.
Intriguing premise, Found myself wanting to continue reading even when I was very tired. Characters believable. Plausible ending. Would be an interesting movie.
Cara W.
Couldn’t think of a more perfect book based on the small description i sent THANK YOU
Douglas J.
New book is excellent. I got this service as a birthday present. I will use Page 1 for gifts from here on.
Shelley D.
I love the other but would prefer more rom -com
Nicholas W.
I love that the choices are expanding the range of my reading. Sometimes I lurk in the comfort of authors that I am already familiar with. Great job picking new and different titles for me!
Marcia J.
I like mysteries and fiction. However, I do like history - but more in the past than the 20th century. Thank you for asking.
Keely F.
I loved the first book I received, The City of Brass. It is not a book I would’ve picked up for myself but I’m really glad I was sent this book to read! I’m excited to read my second book Defy the Night! I have had it on my TBR list but hadn’t gotten the book yet, so I was super excited to see I had received it!
Katharine T.
This book subscription has been so fun!
The first book I received (Half Broken Things by Morag Joss) was a bit dark, but still well-written and from a new-to-me author. This second book, though — Murder of the Century by Paul Collins — is a home run! I can’t believe I’ve never heard of this story before, and I’m thoroughly enjoying it. With both books so far, it’s clear that they really are thinking of me as an individual reader with individual tastes and preferences. It’s a good feeling.
And on top of the books themselves, it’s just so much fun to open up a surprise book each month. Thank you literary matchmakers!
Pamela S.
The book I got is a good read and I read a lot. The story is interesting and well written.
Kelli C.
I loved The Echo Wife and that it was a sci-fi thriller!
Margaret W.
Thank you, I enjoyed the first book. It hit all marks I said I liked. The book was very nicely wrapped and a happy presentation.
Judy P.
I love the selections and the surprise that comes each month along with the bookmark. I also know that each book is packaged with care and love!
Johnna C.
I haven't yet finished it. Since it is based in earlier English/French era, I don't always understand the expressions, words or the French sentences.
Marlene A.
Great choice on first and second boxes. Only one problem on box 2 in that the print is a bit small.
Stephanie K.
I received a Page 1 gift subscription for Christmas and have been so delighted. I am an avid reader so I thought it might be difficult to be surprised or was worried that I'd receive something I already have but so far two of the three books I will be getting were new to me and completely delightful to open and receive. The fact that a person is involved in the process of determining what to send makes this all the better and that much more special than just a book of the month, pick your own situation. I highly recommend this for the reader in your life or if you need to shake things up and try something new.
Lawrence F.
Checked all the boxes on my preference list. Good job.
David M.
great book, #1 in my subscription, cannot wait to see what's next!
Kellye O.
The book selected is not actually one I would have selected for myself but I love it!
Elizabeth B.
This is an amazing way for readers to go outside the box and read books that may otherwise never be picked off the shelf. Thank you for looking at my likes and dislikes to pick fantastic books just for me!!!
Kristine B.
I've been very happy with my "surprises" from Page 1. My first book was one that I had already read and your customer service team was very quick to send a different book and respond to my emails. This is a really fun gift idea for book lovers and I would not hesitate to give this gift to someone else.
Timothy S.
It was an interesting book.
Meg C.
I liked my second book, Glass Magician. It takes place during my favorite time period and involves magic, incorporating the fantasy genre I love. The world in the novel is intricately crafted and very easy to imagine. I can't wait for the next one!
Katherine B.
I received my first book and was very impressed! The packaging was very nice as well as the included bookmark. The book itself was wonderful! What a great read! I'm going to choose more by this author.
David C.
One book in so far and, I really liked the selection. Thank you.
Sondra C.
I really enjoyed the book you chose for me! Thank you
Aaron C.
Bought a 6-month book subscription for my father for Christmas. He's tough to buy for because he has a wide array of interests. He's received two books so far and has loved each one!
Alyssa S.
It's so fun to get a surprise book in the mail!
Jan L.
I have thoroughly enjoyed the books which I have received so far. They are exactly the type of books that I would have chosen myself. The people choosing these books must be mind readers!
I would certainly recommend Page. 1 to any avid reader.
Penny L.
First book was a great choice!
Meg K.
The first book was enjoyable, and I’m looking forward to getting my next one (hopefully soon)!
Elissa I.
I have received two books so far and I’m excited to read both. They are books I have never heard of but fit my reading interests. The gifts that came with the books are wonderful.
Rachel M.
This is definitely not something I would have picked up on my own but I'm really enjoying it!!
Alyssa H.
My favorite subscription I've ever had! Such a fun surprise every month, and the picks are always such great ones! The best part is that if you have the book or have read it, they'll send a new one for free!
Noah J.
Exactly the kind of novel I was looking for!! More please!!
Joy M.
Wile I don't think I would have chosen to read this book, I was pleasantly surprised. I would
not say it was my favorite book, but I did enjoy reading it. I do tend to follow the same genre,
so this was quite different & enjoyable. Thanks :)
Alexandra R.
So happy with my Page 1 subscription! I love the surprise element of this service. The book that I received was the perfect balance of being a match for my preferences and being something that I might not have picked up on my own. I also was pleasantly surprised by the extra gift as it was something I'll actually use and not just an afterthought. Looking forward to my next box!
Emily C.
Beautiful book! Well written, the characters became multidimensional with heartfelt experiences and deep emotions.
Loved this book!!
cassidy m.
Really pleasantly surprised by the subscription and how personally they tailor it
Lynda T.
You must be detectives! ️
I told my husband a couple weeks before Christmas that Fledgling was the next Octavia Butler book I would want to buy or get as a gift and that's the one you picked for me! I'm also so pleased that you saved one of the Women Reading calendars for me.
I can't wait to see what you send me next!
Richard H.
I was a bit doubtful Page 1 would be able to send me interesting books that I've not read. I read a lot of books every year and that's starting to really add up. And I have no records of what I've read other than an increasing poor memory.
Well, it's month one and so far, so amazing! I book I have been meaning to read, "The National Team" showed up, neatly packaged, on my doorstep. Considering how few books about women's soccer have been published, and that I have read quite a few of those, this shows a depth of knowledge and attention that few can match. Color me impressed!
Rick L.
The book took 9 days to get here, but I love the selection.
Bob F.
It’s really great to receive a new book each month. I enjoy the variety as well as the different t forms of writing and genres of books!
Erin P.
I really liked the book choice for the first box, and the women reading calendar was so cool!
I have yet to finish it but so far really interesting and enjoyable
Amanda S.
Every book I’ve received has been spot on, and the mystery of what I’ll get keeps it exciting!
Beth H.
My subscription has been one of my very favorite things that I have ever purchased for myself! I eagerly anticipate the shipping email each month, and then track down the box to my mailbox. I have thoroughly enjoyed each book that has been chosen for me so far. All of the books have been ones that I probably wouldn't have chosen for myself - but they introduced me to new authors and topics that I ended up loving!
Eve R.
This is my 7th delivery (non-consecutive) from page one and I’m obsessed with the service. It’s so exiting to have a special book chosen for you, based on your taste and current bookshelves! What a unique way to discover a new favorite and enjoy your reading life.
Barbara S.
Had this very book on my Christmas wish list (so may get another copy) but... you nailed it.
JoAnn B.
I have only receied one book. but it was a real page turner. It was called "The End of Her" and kept you going and trying to guess until the very end, I am hoping to get my next book in the next day or so and if it is as good a pick, I shall probably extend my subscription.
Anne P.
I loved the historical fiction title you sent for my first box. I have several nonfiction Tudor-related books to read in 2022 so this will be a perfect tie-in. Thank you!
Robin Y.
Just received my first month in the mail today, and I am so happy! Not only is the book selection spot on, the extra goodies really made my day. I can't wait to dive into my new book, and look forward to the months ahead.
Joseph C.
Your doing great! It is an excellent book from an author I am not familiar with.
Gretchen S.
I just received my first shipment from Page 1 and they could not have chosen a better book for me. They are magic!
Judy M.
Love the book. Almost half way done. Highly recommend the book.
Heathaer B.
Your picks for me have been 100%! All new to me and all great reads that suit my taste. I love the little freebies too. I have gifted subscriptions to family members because I have enjoyed this so much. I look forward to my surprise every month!
Lisa C.
This is such a great pick for me! I am looking forward to unboxing my Holiday box.
Diane R.
I have truly enjoyed every book they sent me, I have been a member for about 6 months.I recieved a varied genre and I like that. The books have all been new books I had not heard of before and new authors to discover. I can't say enough about the nice way it is packaged and the thoughtful and most often useful gifts. I especially loved the Book Darts and ordered some for friends for Christmas. This is a fun way to get a special book and good read each month.
Amanda O.
First book received was fantastic! Totally my taste. Nailed it right on the head. And it was a book I never would have picked myself! So far, amazing service and selection
Laila S.
Just the book I needed when I needed it! So engaging, heartwarming and thoughtful. Ready for the next one!
Cynthia B.
I received this subscription as a gift. It was nearly 2 months before I received my first book. I was pleased with the selection made for me, and it was nicely wrapped, like a gift. However, I received a $10 soft cover book, for which my subscription paid $30, which doesn’t seem fair to the gift-giver.
Deborah P.
Got several books from Page1 so far. None of them would be books that I would have picked but I liked every one. It's been good to get some books out of my usual comfort zone.
