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.

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.

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.
Joan K.
The Gown has been very interesting to read.
Mary T.
I am loving being surprised with a book that i know I will read and enjoy.That's why I signed up for another six months. I am in the middle of Minrose Gwin's book Promise. It is well written and a personal story within a historical context.Thanks again for finding me the perfect books.
Krystal B.
I loved getting my first book from Page 1! I received The Printed Letter Bookshop and it was absolutely wonderful! It was fun to unwrap the book plus the bookish extras were a delight!
BARBARA C.
Loved the first book; but disappointed that the subscription is for only ONE book per month. Seems a bit expense.
Mary Frances F.
At the beginning of the book I felt Madeline's situation was very predictable. I did come to love the wisdom of all the characters as they grew through working together. It was a compelling summer read.
Mary C.
Page 1. must think I’m a senior citizen. They sent me Kate Mulgrew’s new memoir of her dying parents. Mulgrew is a better than average writer for a TV actress, but it didn’t really work for me.
Maxine D.
I am thoroughly enjoying my first book! I am about a quarter of the way into it and it is just the kind of book I love to read!. You surely know how to pick out a perfect book for me. Thanks sooo much!!
Julia K.
At first I was reluctant to pick it up. It seemed too fluffy and I wasn’t sure I would enjoy it. But I brought it on a cross country flight and cracked open the first page before the cabin doors were shut, just to see what it was all about, and I literally did not stop reading it until we landed 5 hours later. It was beautifully written, engaging, and shared so much about Hawaiian culture, I just fell in love with the island, the characters and the ocean all at the same time. Great choice!
Emily S.
This is just the coolest subscription service. I’m a teacher, so I got the 3-month to enjoy over summer break. I’m surprised at how much I’m enjoying this book! Plus, the goodies inside make it that much more fun. Love this service! It feels so personal because they really try to find something for YOU. Can’t wait to see next month’s!
Silvia J.
I received my first box and I was not very pleased with their selection. But as promised, as soon as I reached out to them, they went above and beyond to make me a happy customer. They were prompted to respond my emails and made the right questions to make a better selection. Today I got my book replacement and I'm loving their choice. Definitely would recommend it and kudos to their customer service !
Amanda G.
Page 1 does an amazing job with curating each member's monthly title! The more favorite & least favorite books, authors and genres you share with them, the better your experience will be. It's also fun to receive an extra trinket along with your book, always making me excited for the next month's selection!
Genesis D.
At first I didn’t like the book that was selected for me. However, after half way through the book it became very interesting memoir. The free water bottle was a nice touch to the package I received.
Mary T.
You have sent me two very interesting looking books, which need to move to next to read! Looking forward to the other books that you will send. Thanks very much. Since I have been studying French again and trying to learn a little Swedish, would add books from those countries( In English) I think would be interesting , too. I'm very happy with your choices for me.
Stephen A.
Have nearly finished my first “Page 1” book, a compilation of short stories I would likely not have purchased but have greatly enjoyed. Am looking forward to my next surprise selection.
Cathy S.
I really enjoyed my first Page 1 books selection. The book wasn’t on my radar at all and I loved reading a novel set in an unfamiliar setting-Australia. My subscription has started out great with this selection. Keep the great books coming!
Hilary J.
Looking forward to this new subscription! Love the first book so far. :)
Lori M.
This was my first book subscription and I was pleased to see it was exactly as advertised. My book, “Yes, Chef” by Marcus Samuelson, was new to me and corresponded nicely to my interests. Thank you, looking forward to the second selection.
Haley B.
I have been loving my selections and find myself eagerly waiting for the next month's box to arrive. Thank you so much for making my bookshelf even more interesting!
Catie K.
I would never have read this book unless it had been sent to me. I ended up being more interested in the author’s biography of Samuel Pepys. I plan on adding that book to my TBR list. Thanks for introducing me to this writer!
Anne M.
Am enjoying the book....very sweet and a good choice for me. I didn't know what else to expect in the box. The candle smells good,but I thdon't ugh there might be teas or something a little more significant. That is not the primary ocus,I know..the book was the main feature...and it is delightful. Thanks for asking...
Bruce A.
The book was perfect! Reminded me of a Sherlock Holmes story. I loved the setting, England 1924. I’d definitely read this author again.
BETH C.
I work in a library and am constantly picking out or recommending books for other people. It is a delight to have someone pick one out for me. I have enjoyed most of the selections and look forward to it every month.
Sue D.
I have been very pleased with my curated selections. This is such a great service. I love Page 1!
Janelle K.
I just received my book last night and was anxious to dive in. I read two chapters and so far it is very interesting. And in the second chapter the character is in Oaxaca, Mexico where I lived for 4 years! So I'm already sold.
