    Hi Guys

    My better half is an avid reader, she'd read just about anything. I'm wondering if there is an online book club or something that i could subscribe her to, where critically acclaimed books would be sent to her every month? I've tried easons, waterstones, amazon, with no luck.

    I have bought her first editions of some of her favourite books, where money allows as they can be really expensive.

    Or am i best off starting off by getting her a selection of the Penguin Classics, to start off her collecting that library?

    Thanks for the help

    bookriot.com is great. They do a quarterly box but with shipping, it works out kinda expensive. They also have a section called book fetish where they post fun book related stuff that your girlfriend might love..I know I do!

    Not what you asked about but as far as presents for book worms go Out of Print are good for little things. They do t-shirts, bags and other things based on classic books.
