I recently held a giveaway on Instagram<\/a> for my current obsession: Book of the Month<\/a>. Each month, a panel of judges selects five of the best newly released books, and BOTM members choose which read(s) they want delivered to their door. The books are beautiful hardcover copies with specially designed covers, and they are always eye-catching.<\/p>\n

It surprised me to learn this, but Book of the Month Club has been around for almost a century! Their founding statement from 1926 reads,<\/p>\n

“Is there anything more satisfying than to keep abreast of the best new books of our time as they appear? In reading them, in enjoying them, in talking with others about them, we feel our day taking shape.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I couldn’t agree more. And that’s why I’m so excited\u00a0to be a member.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

How it works<\/strong><\/p>\n

Available selections are announced on the first of each\u00a0month, and members have six days to decide which book(s)\u00a0they’d like to receive. All plans include one hardcover book of your choice each month plus\u00a0free shipping. Members can purchase up to two additional books each month for $9.99 per title.<\/p>\n

You can skip the month as long as you do so within the six-day window, and you\u00a0can cancel your membership at any time. Pricing tiers change depending on the length of membership you purchase.<\/p>\n

Visit Book of the Month<\/a>\u00a0for additional details, and use the link above to receive your first month for just $5!<\/p>\n

Happy reading!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
