Frequently Asked Questions
How does this work? When will I receive my box?
We ship out boxes in batches starting on the 15th of the month. So, if you are subscribed for our September box, then you will be charged on September 1st and your box will be shipped by the 15th.
You can cancel your subscription at any time. Payments are processed on the 1st of the month, so cancel by the 31st to ensure you aren't charged for an additional month.
How do I know if my order has gone through?
You will receive a confirmation email from us after placing your order with your invoice. We’ll also update you with the tracking code when your order has been shipped.
What if I already own the book? Can I get a refund?
We have the same taste! We take great care to select books that authentically reflect the culture and high-quality writing. Sometimes that means that if you are widely-read in a particular country's literature, that you may have already gobbled up our monthly pick. We hope that you gift your additional copy to a friend, loved one, or fellow book club member. Remember that to give a book is to give someone a ticket to the world!
What can I expect to receive in my box?
Each box focuses on a particular city, region, or country inspired by that month’s book. Our founder personally reviews each book carefully to select literature that is both enjoyable and reflects the culture of the destination. In addition to your new “booked” destination, your box will arrive with curated recipes authentic to the location (and tested by Sarah— follow her on social media to see her taste-tested each recipe for the month), informative materials about the destination (pamphlets, itineraries, travel guides, magazines, etc.), an exclusive Bon Voyage bookmark, and (Sarah’s personal favorite) a limited-edition passport sticker to add to your reading passport! We pride ourselves on quality and authenticity. Crowd your shelves with books and informative materials, not trinkets that will end up in the bin or the back of your closet. See where your next box will take you!
Who would most enjoy these books? Can I gift this to my teenager?
Avid readers who seek to learn more about other perspectives and experiences around the world will look forward to their boxes each month. This box is curated for Adult readers and many of the books reflect common hardships and sometimes traumatic experiences that may be sensitive for younger readers. We hope to carry young adult and young reader subscriptions in the future!
Where can I share my experience and photos/videos with my box or book club?
Wow! We’re so excited that you love your box! Please share your posts and stories and tag us on social media. We can be found on Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest.
