A Box of Stories ReviewsSee store reviews

I liked the fact that I could select which genres I wanted (2 book build your own box). The books all sound very interesting & the Hardback with sprayed edges was a lovely touch. It was also time for a freebie book, which is always nice. Overall excellent value and I love the surprise element & discovering new authors.

All three books look and sound right up my street. Really intriguing. I love the tote bag! Brilliant design. I'm looking forward to showing it off. I'm not a coffee drinker, more a hot chocolate drinker, but other than that, everything in the box is perfect for me. I can't wait to start reading.

The Crime Mystery box is wonderful. I got my daughter the two books box. It’s a wonderful surprise what arrives. It’s good to make time for yourself every month just to get lost in a book or two. This makes a unique gift for book worms.This is the gift that keeps on giving.

All the books in this box looked interesting. I’m hoping they are all good reads. I got an extra book which was a lovely surprise. I can’t wait to start reading them.

I always get excited in the lead up to Halloween as I really love the Halloween book box from ABOS. I chose the four book box and when it came to the unboxing was very pleased with my books. I have already started on Hidden Pictures and am looking forward to reading each book. Each one looks interesting in its own way and I cannot wait to read them.

I'm really into horror stuff so I'm glad Abos have these seasonal boxes. Always great selection of books and those goodies are huge plus. And I'm definitely in love with Abos tote bags so this time so glad they fed my obsessions😅

Love the look of the books, not books I would normally go for. I haven't read them yet but the covers are amazing. Only thing I will say is some of the corners/spines are getting crumpled in transit because they're not wrapped in bubble wrap or anything which is a bit disappointing.

The variety of the box and the extra book (which was actually two books cling wrapped together) made it extra exciting. I like having a new selection of books to choose from

A great box of stories, I read under the ice and the vanishing year within a few days of receiving the box. I'm half way through soldier now. All of the books are by new authors to me and I'm looking forward to reading more by them.

I love ABOS, so far I've been send great books and ones I wouldn't usually go for but have really enjoyed. I can't wait for my next box. Highly recommend.

Got a ton of great books, so many different types of genres to choose from, it's great that you can switch genres to suit what you are wanting to read, I'll forever be a fantasy reader 😊

These are my latest boxes - Christmas surprise and my choices from ABOS offers. I can’t wait to get lost in these 📚. I’ve not read any of these authors before so it’s a great way to step outside the familiar. My Surprise boxes are always full of stories I wouldn’t usually choose for myself - and saving books from pulping = added bonus.

This is the first box I have got for myself, I’ve previously ordered the one off boxes as gifts for others. Really pleased with the selection of books, both by authors I’ve never read before. Love the addition of the postcard and bookmarks, you can never have enough bookmarks!

I love getting new books delivered to my door. It’s really exciting. I always find choosing them really overwhelming too as there’s so many so it’s nice that they choose for me.

I liked the selection of the books in this box -some interesting looking thrillers and crime books for me to get stuck into. I liked that I had a thinner book to give me a quicker or lighter read. Sometimes you don't want to commit to a big read.

Box of stories have again managed to surprise me with such interesting books! I can honestly say I am delighted when each box arrives and I get to play with my new books! Keep up the good work.

This was my 10th box (if I’ve counted correctly!) and I’ve loved every single one so far. This box was very heavy on the fantasy, and I’m perfectly ok with that! Can’t wait to dive into them. As an ABOS subscriber I have discovered some fantastic reads that I would never have heard of otherwise. I love this book box!

I recently received my limited edition Summer Reads box. I was a little apprehensive as while I will read the occasional one overall I am not a big lover of 'chick lit' or romance books, which is what a lot of Summer themed books tend to be. However, I love the surprise element of a box of stories so decided to chance it and I was glad I did. There was a good mix of genres included and two lovely looking hardbacks. Very happy with my purchase 😊

I love the surprise a box of books has to offer, there were books in this selection that I would never had picked up. I've read 4 of the books received so far and demolished each one.

I always love getting a box from A Box of Stories!! They are such lovely boxes and they pick out amazing books!

I’d grown weary of all the run-of-the-mill, special-edition books getting hyped on TikTok and Instagram these days. I was looking for something different, for a wider range and more variety in fantasy and sci-fi. I found it in the ABOS box. So far, all the titles I’ve received and read have been surprising, compelling and thought-provoking. They come from various sub-genres and niches that I love to explore. I couldn’t be happier with my ABOS subscription so far!

Fab selection of spooky books in this year’s Halloween box. Can’t wait to read them. The gift bookmarks included are always a lovely touch too.

Great selection of books and extra little things - book marks / postcard. Only read one book so far but it was good!!!

The mixture of genres. There are always books in my box that I wouldn't normally choose for myself but when I read them I usually find I enjoy them.

I liked the variety of books I got. I have been subscribing to the box for almost 3 years and love the box.

This box has done great reads in it, I've read 3 of them so far and each has been a page turner all by authors I've never read before.

Loved the look of this box it's right up my street, can't wait to dive in. It's well worth trying a box from a box of stories.

The books were all ones that I hadn’t read before. The themes were spooky , thriller and magic which perfectly sums up Halloween.

It's a good mix of books, looking forward to reading through them. Definitely ones that I would have tried before so I'm glad I'm getting the different experiences! This one seems quite sci-fi heavy whereas other have been more fantasy so we'll see! This is my 3rd box so I got an extra book which is amazing

These all look really interesting books and I wouldn’t have picked any up off a shelf cos you just get stuck in your ways - looking forward to reading them
