Got my first box today! Excited to read Ordinary Grace by William Kent Krueger and I love the pencils:)
Courtney S.
I never would've picked my first book myself, but it was spot on. I absolutely loved it. I loved how flawed the narrator was, but you rooted for him. I loved how irreverent the humor was. I loved how everyone needed to forgive to heal. I loved how it was heavy, but not. I can't wait for future picks!
Caitlin M.
This was my first Page 1 box and I am so excited about the pick! It felt personal yet out of the box, and that was such a satisfying combination. I'm so excited to see what comes next and can't wait to dive into this book!
Annika K.
I don’t know who reads such a shirt writer profile and picks out this book to send to them, but you need to hunt that person down and give them A bonus. This came just after a hugely disappointing first box from Curator Crate — in which I had said I don’t read trendy books just because they’re trendy and they sent me all trendy books. Thank you from the bottom of my reader’s heart.
Christine M.
I had no doubts going into this subscription because I’m a pretty easy-to-please reader; but I do want to say, I screamed with delight at my book pick! I love getting book recs, but I love getting book rec mail even more!
Amanda C.
I am really excited about the book that came for me. It seems like something I would enjoy and it felt very handpicked. I am curious if this book was my actual page one book package or the book of the month credit book because other friends told me they had things like coasters and stickers in their packages...and I didn't have any. But maybe I am confused? Regardless, this book does seem like it's a great pick for me :) Thanks
Rebecca D.
Was a bit predictable typical of a psychological thriller. I wanted to like it more than I did. I was entertained, but not wowed.
Gretchen P.
Receiving and opening my first Page One delivery was so exciting! The book is so me and I could not wait to dive in. I love that I have this to look forward to each month!
Morgan G.
I got my first Page One book in July and loved it so much! I wrote out some of my favorite genres and books along with giving my goodreads handle. And they matched me with a book that wasn't even on my radar but I loved it!! I switched from that ~other book subscription~ and do not regret it one bit! If you're interested in a book subscription service, I highly recommend Page One!
Chris J.
I love the book that was picked just for me. I can't wait to get the next one. I have told all my friends about Page 1. This was the best birthday gift ever!
Rhonda T.
Although I haven't read this book yet, I am excited to dive into it. It's one I haven't heard of. I also have never read this author, but historical fiction is one of my favorite genres so I can't wait to start. I especially appreciate the nod to Chinese history in America that I can pass along to my daughter, adopted from China so I know whoever read my bio paid attention. It was beautifully wrapped and so fun to open! I truly enjoyed getting my box. Happy!!
Mary E.
Perfect choice! I had enjoyed "The Underground Railroad" by this author, and had not yet explored other works, so this was a welcome book. I read it over two days and then did some additional research on the true events that inspired Whitehead's novel. This book was shorter than most I pick up, but it was intense and memorable.
Paul H.
Great book! Good fit with my profile. I love a good dramatic, mystery novel. Beautiful hardback current novel!
Anna W.
I love that this book box subscription is a surprise, rather than just a book I could have bought myself. Also, the book picked for me was PERFECT. It was a book I had never heard of but just happened to be by the same author as the book I was currently reading. The people who selected my first book did their job well!
Jon P.
Love the book and the author. The book grab me from the 1st page.
Paige S.
Page 1. Has TOTALLY nailed it, from my first book chosen to the greatest customer service! I could not be happier. I was anxiously awaiting my first book thinking, ‘I will read it regardless, but I’m sure I’ll have the book already, or it won’t be what I’m looking for.’ I couldn’t have been more wrong! I haven’t finished the first book yet (I have a newborn) but I take it EVERYWHERE, along with my sticky notes and highlighter, for any reading opportunities. I hadn’t even heard of it, but as soon as I read the description I knew it would be a perfect fit. In addition, the customer service was phenomenal. When I purchased my subscription, I accidentally entered my email incorrectly (#newbornmombrain) and Brandy worked quickly to fix my mistake and reassure me she had it taken care of. I will recommend this to everyone!
Christopher H.
Great read - cute and heartbreaking.
Kim E.
I plan to extend my 3 month to a 12 month!
Jamie R.
Page 1's subscription service is incredibly unique! I love that it's catered to the individual reader versus having 1 book sent to all subscribers (or 5 to choose from, like that other guy). I could tell that my Goodreads profile and reading preferences, provided in detail upon subscribing, were both referenced when choosing my first monthly book: Bluff by Jane Stanton Hitchcock. I was thrilled that I had never heard of the book or the author before, and that the selection wasn't a brand-new release. While I rated the book 4 stars on Goodreads, I really did enjoy it and am super pleased with the selection. I would like to see something classic or fantasy/folkloric next month!
Lauren S.
Very impressed that Page One found exactly the type of book I love to read on the first try! It was a perfect escapist read for this time of social distancing. This book has resonance and will stay with me for a while.
Jennifer K.
Got my first shipment and loved it. It's so fun knowing someone has picked a book just for you. The book they sent was one I didn't own and hadn't read, but definitely sounds like something I would enjoy. So I am excited to read it! I also got a couple of cute bookish coasters and a Page 1 sticker in the box. Super fun. Looking forward to future boxes!
Shivani P.
Page One Books? More like magical bookish fairies sent from above ✨❤️
After all the drama with BOTM, I knew I needed to unsubscribe. I decided to join Page One Books because they sounded supportive, kind, and most importantly - inclusive.
SO HAPPY with their personal pick. I remember seeing this book online and I felt like I needed it because of how pretty the cover is. l never got around to buying it. BUT NOW I HAVE IT AND I AM SO EXCITED.
Thank you Page One Books ! Very satisfied with my first box and I can’t wait to get more.
I absolutely recommend subscribing (:
Rebecca C.
So far I’ve only gotten my first box but the packaging was so nice it was like Christmas, and I’m so excited about the book selection. Can wait to read it!
SAADIA S.
I was so pleasantly surprised with my book choice! I had never heard of the book and although I read almost all genre of books, I primarily read mystery and thrillers, & would’ve been very happy with a book in that category. But to hit a genre that I enjoy but don’t often mention, it was honestly like tapping into a side of me that felt like Page1 instantly connected with who I am! Thank you so much! I’m so happy to be a part of this community!
Elizabeth M.
Highly recommend! I am so pleased with the book selection I received - it was already on my wish list! Amazing how well they chose for me, can't wait until next month :)
Tiffany N.
I recently switched from another book subscription service, and I had my doubts about someone selecting a book for me. I filled out my form with a fair amount of info about books I’ve read and liked and disliked, and I provided the link to my Goodreads account. My first book came today and they nailed it! This book was already on my radar and exactly the type of book I tend to enjoy. I can’t wait to see what they choose for me next month!
Emma P.
My first box from Page One arrived this week and I am THRILLED with the book I received, the great little touches in the box, and so excited to receive books from Page One for a long time to come!
Kimber Lee P.
I was so excited by my box! I love how you guys wrapped it up for me like a gift and I’m really happy with the book I received, I can’t wait to read it.
Jessica K.
It's always so fun to receive a Page 1 box knowing the book inside was curated just for me based on my interests! The wrapping is perfect and the extra gift is always a bonus. Highly recommend.
Richard B.
Currently reading This Tender Land.
The Splendid and the Vile looks intriguing. Can’t wait to start reading it.
Emily C.
This book fits my reading personality perfectly! It was on my TBR list and I was looking forward to getting it. Thanks for the great pick!
Jessica B.
I have only received my first book from my subscription, but it was a book that I had not read by an author that I just recently read!
I loved the packaging, the gifty coasters, and the book itself.
Off to a great start!
Hannah H.
I love this program! The chosen books are unique and diverse, and the owner is so great to work with!! I had a few emails with her over some confusion on my part, and she was sweet and understanding during the entirety of our discussion.
Emilie H.
I just got my first book from page one today and I love it and the coaster is very nice I will use it with my candles
Jessica L.
I don’t know how y’all did it, but you picked the prefect book. I have been wanting to read this one for awhile. I almost bought it a few months ago, but talk myself out of getting it. It’s so much fun opening up the box. I’m looking forward to my next box.
Heidi B.
So far, I’ve had a good experience. The book seems right up my alley. My only complaint was how long it took to arrive.
Diane M.
The staff at Page1 is terrific. It's not their fault I read so much. Finding new books for me very difficult and they have accommodated me at every turn. Very nice people to deal with
Kasey M.
I am amazed at what the book curators picked out for me this month! I honestly, had no idea that this was originally a book. I used to watch this movie all the time with my Mom. I look forward to starting it tonight. I also look forward to my next book!
Hannah B.
I'm so amazed that I got a book that sounds so up my alley AND has been endorsed by many of my friends but that I'd never heard of before! So excited to dig in.
Kaylyn M.
LOVE the book I was sent! So glad I switched to this service! Great customer service and could not ask for a better service who also focuses on DIVERSITY!
Katie B.
Looks like a great summer read! Such a fun package. Thank you! I will let you know how I liked the book! ❤️
Krista M.
So excited to read The Water Dancer! I just finished Between the World and Me but I hadn't heard of this one yet. It met everything I asked for perfectly, you are awesome!!
Kimberly M.
I just got my first book today and it looks right up my alley. I was worried that I would get a book I already have (my TBR list is ridiculous) and that if Page 1 just went off my "read" books on Goodreads, I would end up with a book I already own - but they found one I don't have and is a book I would otherwise get!
Erinn J.
Just got my first box and they could not have chosen a more perfect book for me!! I cannot wait to jump into this book and I eagerly await next month's selection!!!
Meg W.
Really enjoyed the first book that was sent. Looking forward to the next book!
JANNA B.
Thank you for choosing this book for me. It's like you really know me. In fact, this is my 4th month and each book has been awsome. You do a great job of picking books for me that I have never read or even heard of. Thank you!
Cristine C.
Almost done... snd this is exactly MY type of read!!!
Audrey Z.
I was very excited when I read about Page One Books and so far it has lived up to the excitement!
I sent all my book preferences and Goodreads list (which is a bit cray). The choice Page One Books made was perfect: a book I was def interested in, but may have not picked up for myself. I get to take a reading break over July 4th and Rodham will be a part of that celebration. Looking forward to being a part of the “book club” for a while :)
Nella S.
Good selection based on my preferences.
Priscilla G.
Initially- the story was not pulling me in .... but as I continued, the author’s storytelling strength came through.
Almost done and looking forward to my next book from Page 1.
Thank you for a great “read”.
Rhonda C.
It was fun to unwrap the pretty wrapped book.
The book bag is so cute!
Alice H.
The Four Graces was a delightful read. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you.
Theresa H.
Really enjoyed my first book of my subscription!!! The Bridal Chair makes me want to see a Chagall exhibit now!
Kathy C.
I just received my first book from Page 1 Books entitled "The Printed Letter Bookstore" by Katherine Reay. I was not familiar with this author but would like my next book to be one of hers. I got the book on Monday and finished it on Saturday. I usually read a chapter or two before bed. There were parts that I just had to finish before putting it down. Thanks for the nice book bag also.
Kathy C.
nancy j.
Amazing to me that they were able to select a book that I had not read before and I cannot put it down.
Kendra B.
I loved my first experience with Page One. I appreciated the reusable tote and bookmark, the book is right up my alley! I cannot wait for next month :)
gail h.
I'm really enjoying the book and plan to watch more of the series on television. Thanks for a very nice start to my subscription!
Vanessa M.
I was impressed by the book choice! 1 month down- 5 more to go. SO excited!!!
Sheila B.
Great canvas book bag and nice book too !!
Denise G.
I have been anticipating getting my box since the day I subscribed and was very excited when it arrived. I was pleasantly surprised at first. I would never have chosen this book myself. I did say I love historical fiction and a good murder mystery, not too gory. I have never read anything by PD James and this is her first mystery novel. I am halfway through and am loving it! Thank you Page 1!
Veronica D.
Very fun service! And they take care of you if you already have the book or reeeaaaalllly don't like it. Thanks!
Haley S.
So fun to get this surprise box! Loved the pick & goodies & loved the wrapping!
Mary A.
I loved “The Only Woman in the Room” by Marie Benedict. I knew Hedy Lamarr was not only a beautiful actress and scientist but I did not know anything about her life in Austria, difficult marriage or her knowledge of he Nazi party. It is sad her groundbreaking invention was not used during WWII that could of saved many American lives. The book was amazing, you learn so much from historical fiction books.
Kimberly L.
After excited anticipation I received my first book, A Winter’s Promise. It did not disappoint and I devoured it over the weekend. I didn’t even know this unique story existed, but now I am going to read the next in the quartet. Thank you!
Jacob T.
I’m really enjoying Circe so far.
Sarah W.
I received my first book last week, and finished almost as quickly as I started it. Such a great story! Not only am I thrilled with the selection, I might also have found a new favorite author to follow. Thanks for the great read!
Erin O.
DK absolutely loves his book! He is having me read it to him constantly. And my book is perfect. I have never heard of John Williams, and now I want to read everything he has ever written. Thank you so much!!!!
Melissa P.
Running to read it right now!
Brandy W.
I can’t wait to read this book!
Janet C.
From my daughter: I thought it was very interesting and full of adventure. I loved it. I liked how it gave people an opportunity to have a better life. I very much enjoyed it.
Carolyn H.
This was my first book through the subscription and it was lovely. I was completely unfamiliar with the author
Maryellen H.
Since the pandemic I’ve had a lot of time to read. Hannah’s war was the perfect read interesting but not overpowering historical but still fictional took me a while to get into the book but once I got into it I thoroughly enjoyed it yes I would recommend this book
Verona D.
I have received 4 books. I am reading Dancing at the Rascal Fair now and enjoying it very much. I had read Bel Canto, so you sent Cold Comfort Farm. That one was cute in the end but not that good. Didn’t get the parody but the story was amusing. The Last Romantics was okay—had some good thoughts in it but didn’t rate very high on my list of favorites. I just received The Vineyards of Champagne and it looks very appealing to me.
I enjoy being introduced to books and authors I’ve not heard of so although none of the books has been a WOW, I have enjoyed reading them.
You have sent An Uncommon Reader to two of my friends. I read it and really enjoyed it. Very British and very funny. One of my friends liked it; the other one didn’t get it at all and didn’t like it. Thanks for everything you do. Trust you’ll weather this storm and keep making us happy. Stay safe.
Kenia S.
My husband bought a 6-month subscription for me, for my birthday, which essentially means I get a birthday present in the mail for 6 months straight! Page One has been an incredible experience: somehow, they just KNOW what you would love. It's like magic. I really love books and I really love surprises, and Page One brings both of those things together in the perfect way: I'm so giddy when I receive my Page One box every month, and I'm always so excited to unwrap the book and find out what surprise awaits!
Pam P.
First book and I enjoyed your pick! Great story with thought provoking theme(s).
Kim W.
I waited with great anticipation to see what my first book choice would be from my Page 1 subscription. When my package arrived and I found Such A Fun Age by Kiley Reid, I dove in and found a book that was perfect for me! Great writing, a strong female character, lots for me to think about and discuss with fellow book readers...Thank you Page 1! You really get me!
Sandra B.
Loving Normal People! The story is compelling
Bronwyn P.
I'm reading OVER THE TOP by Jonathan Van Ness. I was familiar with him, but reading his story is very interesting.
Cassandra H.
I got Looking for Alaska by John green this month and well I have not had the chance to start yet I am really looking forward to!
Brailey S.
I loved the first book y'all sent me! I can't wait for the next month's book!
Jada R.
i love page one books, really thoughtful service.
Marilyn M.
Was very happy with my first book. Good story and it came with chocolate and jewelry.
Ruth S.
I was surprised by the choice because it’s a book that’s been around. And ironically I have often thought I should pick it up but somehow never quite did. I am enjoying it. It took me a bit to get into the stories but now I am really sucked in.
Nicky W.
I've received the first month of my three month subscription and I love it! I'm super excited to read the book and I love the other items in the box. It's such a fun thing to look forward to!
Jessica S.
Had my eye on it so really glad I got this one!
Thanks!
Joanna S.
I have really enjoyed the books I've received through the Page 1 subscription. "I'll Be Gone in the Dark" has interfered with my sleep for weeks. Thank you Page 1!
Katherine K.
I love getting my box every month. I know I'm going to love the book inside.
Stephen A.
Its a wonderful surprise to receive a beautifully wrapped book I may well not have known to buy along with reading related gifts.
Elizabeth B.
The perfect book and I don’t even have to leave my house! Plus an amazing tea. The perfect afternoon is curling up with a good book and a cup of tea. This box made that happen!
Katherine B.
My book match was spot on! I am so excited to begin reading this selection! Thank you page 1 books!
Jennifer E.
Machines Like Me by Ian McEwan was high on my list of books to read, in fact, I checked it out at the library. I was almost two chapters in and the book was already overdue at the library when I received my subscription in the mail. I was delighted! I loved the book and couldn't include a picture because I immediately lent it to a friend upon finishing. It was the first book I received as part of my subscription, and you're killing it! Thank you so much!
Kathy J.
This is a book I've been wanting to read! Thank you for choosing this one! I also was gifted a book by a patron who had already read the book you sent her. I loved it too!
Anne B.
I love this subscription service! Page 1 Books does such a great job of tailoring books to the individual reader. I appreciate all of the little extras and the courteous customer service!
Diana B.
I received The Guestbook by Sarah Blake. It was a VERY rough start of a read! I was probably 50-75 pages in and finally starting to think I may be able to finish the book. I'm a little over half way through it, and I'm hooked.
Melissa M.
Getting my box is always a delight. The books are perfectly matched to my interests, and the extras are always book geek candy. A great gift for any book lover, and an even better treat to give yourself.
Teresa B.
I tried Page 1 Books with trepidation, not fully sure someone could recommend a book that grabbed my attention just by answering questions about my previous reading selections. I picked up The Historian with a great deal of doubt. I can't put it down. I am just at the beginning of the story, but it totally has grabbed me. - Too bad dinner needs to be fixed! lol.
Looking forward to digging in even more to this one.
Hope G.
I'm loving Golden Hour ! Hate to put the book down even at midnight. Stayed tuned. I am close to the end. Thanks for sending.
Cindi B.
I am visiting London in late November and was looking for books on London and u sent me a book where London is a main character. Did you read my mind?
Tammy S.
I am thrilled with my subscription. My first box was wonderful. I am enjoying my first book and can' t wait for my next box.
Laura M.
Page One have a knack - for recommending books I would have never picked up, for making each delivery a surprise gift of goodies, and for excellent customer service. Page One has nailed 3/4 books I’ve received, and the one that I didn’t love they suggested I pass it on to another reader and replaced it with no questions asked. I highly recommend a Page One subscription.
