Book Club FAQ

How do I pay?
You pre-pay via Swish or bank giro (or card payment), and you pay for 3 months at a time (discount if you subscribe for more than 3 months!). Monthly fee is fixed and delivery is free. All categories are 165:-/month. Payment instructions on the sign-up form on the link below.

What if I want to leave the club?
No worries; you can unsubscribe at any time and you’re ­always welcome back later.

Can I give a subscription as a gift to someone?
Sure you can (and what a nice giver you are!). You can gift an on-going subscription, or time-limit it to 3 months, 6 months, or an entire year.

What if I’ve already read the book?
You are a frequent reader! Did you like the book? Perhaps it would make a great gift for someone else. You can exchange it at one of our bookshops or just send it back to us unread (return postage is on you though). Please contact us at bookclub@bookshop.se first so we can help you out. The risk that you’ve already read the book is rather slim though…

This sounds dangerous, like a literary Russian roulette!
No need to worry, there’s no risk of bloodshed. The risk of discovering new favourite authors is higher though… We like to call it – literary serendipity!

But I live nearby, there’s no need to send me the books…
Howdy neighbour! We’ll hold the books for you at the bookshop and let you know when they're ready to be picked up. (Oh, and if you pick up locally you can switch category on-the-fly at the shop).

I don’t even live in Sweden!
No need to worry, we’ll send you the book anywhere in the Nordic countries and rest of Europe for a slightly higher monthly fee, +SEK 50:-/book. Pre-paid quarterly as usual.

Participating in our local Reading Groups?
Please note, that if you’re a regular participant in any of the Reading Groups at our local bookshops, you will be able to buy the next month’s book sooner by buying it at the previous meeting (or in the shop when signing up for a meeting), than you will from a Book Club subscription. (Want to know more about our Reading groups? Read more at www.bookshop.se/readinggroups )

Pick your book club category(-ies)

Modern Fiction: a new, hand-picked novel by an English language writer. Something you haven’t heard of but probably will...

Classics are classics for a reason. (Re)discover the treasures of English classics. We will most often read the non-standard classics.

Feel-Good – often romantic, sometimes funny, always comforting and mood lifting.

Mystery picks are crime and mystery novels, mostly British, often historical, never gory.

Noir brings you the tougher and darker literary crime novels.

The Fantasy and Sci-Fi categories are where wou will find new voices in alternate world writing.

Non-Fiction (History/Biographies) is the category for the investigative and curious mind.

Queer interest – a mix between fiction and non-fiction titles. Spanning from modern novels and queer classics, to biographies and current affairs with a queer perspective.

Horror – looking for dark and weird and eerie reads? Then this category is for you!

All book club categories are 165:-/month. 
And delivery is free. (If you’re a local and choose to pick up at one of our bookshops, you can swap the book set aside for you for any other Book of the Month in stock at the shop – so you can really switch it up!)


Subscription prices (per category)

Quarter (3 months) 495:- (=165:-/month and category)
Half-year (6 months) 940:- (Save 50:-)
Full-year (12 months) 1.815:- (Save 165:-, i.e. one month free!)

The subscription prices are adjusted from May 2023 due to changed book prices from the publishers, increased freight costs, and changed currency exchange rates. This is our first price change in over 4 years – and it’s still a great deal!
