Worth knowing
Books arrive two at a time over the year rather than all at once, and titles are chosen for you, not tailored.
Skip it for a reader with narrow tastes, since the new-fiction option is picked by the shop rather than matched to one person.
This gift does not ship as a parcel, so it can be given after shipping cutoffs.
