The box was fantastic! A perfect pick-me-up on a Tuesday. The products were very nice quality and the book was just the type I was looking for. Special shout out to the packaging team for exceeding expectations on the special request of making the box critter proof for the time it spent on the doorstep. The box was perfectly untouched by the time I could retrieve it.

I ordered this subscription as a gift for a friend and she has been loving it!

I’ve never been disappointed with a single book choice - Booxie gets it right every time. I also love the thoughtful tea and treat pairings that come with each box. I genuinely look forward to Booxie delivery week every month!

Terrific company to deal with. I’m really impressed with the additional authors they find in my interest area. I wouldn’t have found them.

I'm on my fourth month of Booxies and it's the highlight of my month. It's so fun to open up and see what goodies are in store for me this month. The goodies are of a high quality and the books are always fabulous. It's a great reminder for me to set aside an indulgent little self care night with my new books and my treats.

This Mystery Booxies box was such a fun treat! The book choice was great and totally up my alley. I loved the extra touches like the chilli hot chocolate (such a fun twist!) and the non-alcoholic drink! it made the whole experience feel really cozy and well thought out. Perfect for a little self-care night in. Can’t wait to see what’s in the next one!

So pretty

Will be a great present can’t wait to give it 👏👏👏👏

We loved Booxies, one of our friends is expecting a baby girl and we sent him a baby gift from Booxies, they loved it and thought it was an awesome gift!

It was by far the best gift hamper I ever come across! 😍

Disclaimer: I’m already a fan. I’ve read the author’s previous work and was impressed at once. From contemporary crime fiction, ‘Headland’; to the WWII and Great Depression saga ‘The Youngest Son’; this latest epic takes place during World War I and the years preceding.
The writing is sophisticated, assured. John has honed his style – and it’s magnificent.

If you’re after gritty realism, then you’ve come to the right place. Brace yourself for graphic battlefield scenes; confronting social crises; and a dash of searing eroticism for good measure. Expect also, moments of raw tenderness and understated poignancy. John’s ability to describe the full gamut of human sensibility, and to explore the dark corners and jagged edges of humanity, is undeniable.

Each character feels like they existed as part of history …of course they didn’t – but fictional characters are a reflection of ourselves in some way or another. The lead female, Angeline Dubois, is spectacular… She’s actually everything I ever wanted to be: Precocious, resilient, self-made – not made by her lot. Oh, and she’s hot as ****.

When you pick up a John Byrnes novel, the immersion is swift and affecting. This one is about as cinematic as it gets – brilliant imagery, universal relevance, and a captivating plot. It paints a picture of an era that was different in many ways…but the more you read, the more you realise that the ways of people; their motivations and struggles – mostly stay the same.

I suspect that SINS OF THE FATHERS will live in the hearts and minds of readers long after they’ve closed the book.

Sent this to a friend and this is the message I received when it arrived:
‘… it is the most beautiful care package . So thoughtful and I am so teary from receiving this… makes me feel better already. Also the bookmark - seriously gorgeous.’

Booxies have been a great way to give myself a treat each month. The snacks are delicious, I love that there could be alcohol included, and a random book in my genre often encourages me to step out of my book-rut, just a little.

It’s gets my blood pumping every time my monthly subscription arrives. I’m always excited to see what is in store from me. Everything arrives in such great condition and the price works so well with my budget. I cannot get enough!

I got the Booxies subscription for a friend for her 40th birthday, and every box looked amazing and she loved it so much.
