Find Adventure in a Book: 6 Reading Resources & Subscriptions You Will Love

Is there anything better than sitting down with a good book, especially on cold winter days? Reading can take us to amazing new lands, introduce us to fascinating characters, or put us in the thick of a thrilling mystery right from the comfort of our own homes. Find your next adventure in a book with these six reading resources and subscriptions you will love!

1. Once Upon a Book Club

Once Upon a Book Club is an excellent choice if you love an interactive experience. When you subscribe, you receive one fiction book every month, along with several gifts to open at certain points in the book, a quote print you can hang in your home, discussion questions, and dates for live discussions with other club members. So you can join a new online community or maybe start a reading group of your own!

2. Classic of the Month Club

If you love the classics, the Classic of the Month Club is perfect for you. When you subscribe, you’ll get one classic book per month. And you’ll also receive your choice of tea or coffee in your subscription box. So you’ll be all set to curl up in your favorite chair with a warm drink and enjoy your book.

3. Sweet Reads

A Sweet Reads subscription is a little pricier than the others on this list, but if you want to treat yourself, it may be just what you’re looking for. Each month, you’ll receive a specially selected book, curated items that tie in with the book, an artisan drink, and gourmet treats. Plus, Sweet Reads includes books by Canadian authors whenever possible. And you can order single boxes if you prefer, so it’s perfectly fine if you only want to splurge on a Sweet Reads box once in a while.

4. Kindle

One of the most popular reading subscriptions is Kindle. With a Kindle Unlimited subscription, you’ll be able to choose from more than 1 million books, plus popular magazines. And thousands of books are available as audiobooks, too. You can use any device with a Kindle app to access your subscription, so it’s convenient when you need to travel or wait for appointments, too.

5. Audible

If you love audiobooks, Audible is the way to go. And right now, you can receive a 30-day free trial plus two free audiobooks. So it’s a perfect choice if you want to gauge whether you’d like the service before you subscribe. And Audible doesn’t only offer books. You can also listen to podcasts, sleep tracks, and meditation programs, too!

6. Library

Last but not least, your local library is always a wonderful resource. Library cards are free, so you can check out books as often as you’d like. And many libraries offer audiobooks and other services, as well. Plus, libraries often offer book clubs and other events, too. So they’re a great venue for socializing and participating in your community.
