I just took the dust jackets off of The Tainted Cup series and the actual covers are gorgeous!

I know I just posted, but I was showing my wife and I took off the jacket and we both were stunned, much better than a lot of books where the actual covers are just plain.

The 3rd book is so beautiful in person

My first box, I'm sure you get these posts a lot, but I'm excited to see what's offered each month

Was able to use the promo code SUMMER and get my first book for $4, so $28 post tax for all 3. Books are gorgeous

Best month for you so far this year!

There have been several great months of books from Aardvark this year! Which has been the best for you? If you've read the books, which months had the highest star rating or other things that made them enjoyable? If you haven't gotten to many, which month's picks have you the most excited?

For me, it was April. The Radiant Dark and Dear Monica Lewinsky were both 5 stars (and I'm stingy)! My book club read Japanese Gothic, and we agreed it was one of the best discussions of the year. I also read and enjoyed Love Galaxy and Love by the Book.

Which month is it for you?

Got my first box!

Got my first Aardvark box, and I’m blown away. Mostly by the quality of the book in comparison to BOTM. Just received my second BOTM box too so I’m fairly new to both, but the difference in quality is night and day.

The other aspect that I really liked were the selections this month. North Woods is one of my all-time favs, so Country People was a slam dunk pick for me. Whereas neither of my first two BOTM books were standouts initially, I just got them to get them. I ended up liking both of them to be fair.

Although, I do also understand the monthly selections aspect of it can change month to month. Hopefully I’m able to be good about skipping liberally when nothing really calls out to me across both subscriptions.

Already looking forward to next month’s picks!

First box is here!

My first box is here! I typically don’t buy series I’ve never read but I’m taking a leap of faith 🥰

Promo code not working?

Edit: it was an address issue! I live in an apartment so adding the unit number in with the street rather than on the additional line worked for some reason.. thanks to those who said it's only one use per address!

Hey everyone! I really want to try aardvark out, and on their website there is a banner that says you can get your first book for $4 using their promo code. I have tried so many times and it says it is not valid. I emailed them a couple days ago but haven't heard back.. anyone know how to make a promo code work or if there is any other way to get the deal when signing up?

Ps. I'm not trying to be cheap, i just think if you advertise a deal if should be honored and it's bothering me.

Thanks in advance for any tips!

We love book mail day!

I had to limit myself to one book this month, because I was collecting books faster than I can read them 😂 Excited for She’s A Doll! What book(s) did you pick this month?

TBR piling up

Common problem I know! But I’d love for some votes on which of these to go for first (explanations always adored):

Sublimation
The Unicorn Hunter
Girl with a Thousand Faces
Canticle

Thanks!

Aardvark TBR 🫣

I joined Aardvark back in May 2025 with When the Wolf Comes Home and absolutely loved it. Ever since, I get excited about the monthly hints and drops and place an order almost monthly, but I’ve been so focused on dwindling down my BOTM and non-book box TBR that I realize I haven’t read nearly any of my Aardvark picks.

I want to chip away at it and have skipped a few months here and there so I’m adding less to my TBR but I’d love your thoughts on which ones I should prioritize!

Bonus points if you can recommend a book on this list that is captivating from the start. I’ve been in such a reading slump this summer that I’ve only read 4 books since the beginning of June. I generally average 6-7 books per month so this is very unlike me.

Thank you in advance 😊

Wrong book

Hello fellow aardvarkians! I have been a member for a long time and have finally had my first add on mixup. I ordered john of john but they sent me shes a doll. Im into horror so part of me is accepting it as a 'the universe is telling me to read this instead' but i would like john of john. I sent the info@aardvark an email but havent heard back. Anyone whos been in this situation have a better email or any advice? Im not pressed about it by any means. Excited to read my books all the same!
