Is An Aardvark Book Club Subscription Box Worth It?

Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links, meaning I receive a small compensation to help support my blog if you decide to make a purchase through my links at no cost to you.

Should you buy an Aardvark Book Club subscription box? I am giving you the full 411 on this bookish subscription service today and I have a discount code for new subscribers if you decide you want to try Aardvark Book Club!

I have mentioned before that I love the beginning of the month. Not only because you get a fresh start to work on your goals, but also because Aardvark Book Club releases their 4-5 monthly book picks for that month! This service is fairly new, but I am already loving their unique picks and their interactions on social media!

What is Aardvark Book Club?

Aardvark Book Club is a monthly book subscription box with 4-5 carefully curated book selections. The book selections are from all genres, but you can almost guarantee there will be literary fiction, contemporary fiction, romance, historical fiction, mystery, or thriller each month. Aardvark also includes nonfiction and sci-fi titles on occasion. This book subscription focuses on debut authors and sometimes includes early release books so you can read them before they are available in stores!

How does Aardvark Book Club work?

Each month, you get to choose one of the 4-5 book selections for your book of the month. That’s right-you get to choose which book you want!

If you are interested in more than one book, you can opt to add-on up to two of any of the other book selections from that month or choose from any available titles from previous months!

If you want hints for the monthly picks, then follow Aardvark Book Club on Instagram! They post fun emoji hints that will keep you guessing until the picks are announced.

 

 

How much does Aardvark Book Club cost?

The cost for Aardvark is honestly the best part. US subscribers get a brand new hardcover book for only $17.99. That’s an amazing deal, as brand new hardcovers are usually at least $25 in stores. Shipping is always free!

If you choose an add-on or two in your box, those books are only $9.99 each and your box still ships for free! US subscribers can use this link and enter my code READWITHALLISON4 to get their first book for only $4. You can also choose add-on books for $9.99 each when you use this special offer!

Canadian subscribers pay $25.99 CAD for their credit and $13.99 for each add-on book.

Are there any downsides to Aardvark Book Club?

If you are someone who enjoy extra bookish merch, like candles, fandom items, etc., then you may not find an Aardvark Book Club subscription box very exciting. I see this as a plus side though because of the price. Most book box subscriptions with items are $35+ and do not offer free shipping. Aardvark does include a bookmark for each book in your box and it is super cute!

If you stick to one or two genres, then you may be disappointed in the selection occasionally. Fantasy readers aren’t going to find as many options each month.

Currently, you are unable to skip a month and save your credit for the next month. You can technically skip by not choosing a book, but you will be charged again for another credit at the end of the month. Aardvark has assured me they are working on this feature, so it is at least in the works!

If you want a workaround to skipping until the feature is officially available, then you do have the option to cancel your subscription in the app and re-subscribe at a later time!

The only other downside I can think of is needing more shelf space for all the books you will end up with as an Aardvark Book Club subscriber!

If you love the idea of trying an Aardvark Book Club subscription box, I have a special link for my blog readers to sign up with! You will get your first book for only $4 using the discount code READWITHALLISON4 at this link.
