Basically the way it works is simple. You answer a questionnaire about your life and your interests, specifically about reading habits. You can choose a specific genre or select random. Each month, they will select a vintage book for you based on your preferences.
This was my first month and I love the idea. The problem, though, with a subscription like this is that when I filled out the survey, it was about two months ago. Between waiting for a month for the next shipment and then another few weeks for Royal Mail, my reading habits have changed a lot. When I filled it out, I was on a mystery kick. I'd been reading a bunch at Christmas, but I'm kind of less interested in mystery at the moment. Because I'm an avid reader, no book is really a bad selection for me (outside of romance), but I ended up a little disappointed. Mostly because I'm now on a fantasy and classics kick. What I think is best for me with this service is to order a one-time delivery when I'm feeling random, rather than a subscription just because I read so much but then my moods change.
