How to choose your WellRead subscription

Start with who it's for

Choose a subscription for yourself or someone else. If you're sending a gift, you can select a gift subscription during purchase.

Choose your subscription type

Select an ongoing subscription if you'd like books to continue each month. You can manage, skip, or cancel at any time through your account.
Choose a prepaid gift subscription (3, 6, or 12 months) if you're gifting for a set period.

How many should I order?

Most readers only need one subscription per person.
If you're purchasing for multiple people, we recommend placing separate orders, with a different email address, so each subscription can be managed individually.
Choosing a quantity of 2 or more on this page sends that many copies of the same month's book – it doesn't send different titles.

Confirm your details

Add your delivery information, include an optional message if gifting, and complete checkout.

From there, each book is thoughtfully selected and prepared for the next available delivery.

Book Subscription for Book Clubs (4 Books per Month)

What’s included each month?

Each delivery includes one carefully selected book, along with reading notes and a letter explaining why it was chosen.

Every title is thoughtfully curated from new literary releases—both local and international—with a focus on quality, discovery, and lasting reading experiences.

The reading notes are designed to deepen the experience, whether enjoyed personally or shared in a book club setting.

How does delivery work?

Books are carefully packaged and sent at the start of each month, with most deliveries arriving within the first week.

When you subscribe, your first book will be prepared for the next available delivery—often the upcoming monthly selection.

If a selected title is tied to a future release date, delivery may follow shortly after publication.

Shipping is calculated at checkout and starts from $5.

Billing & subscriptions

Subscriptions are charged on the 20th of each month.

You can choose a monthly or every-other-month delivery. With an ongoing subscription, you can skip a month, adjust your delivery frequency, or cancel at any time through your account.

If you need any help managing your subscription, feel free to contact us—we’re always happy to assist.

Can I gift this subscription?

Yes — we offer prepaid gift subscriptions designed specifically for gifting.

You can explore our gift options here: Gift Subscriptions

When purchasing a gift, you’ll be able to include a personal message and choose when the gift is sent.

Gift subscriptions are prepaid for a set period, creating a thoughtful experience that begins when the recipient redeems their gift.

What if I’ve already read the selected book?

We carefully select new and notable releases to minimise the chance of this happening.

If you’ve already read the book, many customers choose to pass it on—sharing the experience with a friend, family member, or fellow reader.

As each selection is curated in advance, we don’t typically offer exchanges. If something doesn’t feel quite right, please contact us and we’ll do our best to assist.

This product is perfect for book clubs! Each month, we’ll send you multiple copies of our monthly adults’ selection – a new literary fiction release – accompanied by reading notes and questions to inspire conversation. 

It’s a big world of books out there and deciding what your book club will read can be a tricky process. Keep your reads diverse, interesting and varied in content and form throughout the year with the WellRead Book Subscription for Book Clubs.

What’s included: 

  • 4 or more copies of a carefully selected book for the month 
  • Reading notes to inspire conversation and extend the reading experience
  • Book Club exclusive discounts

How does it work? 

  • Please email our team at [email protected] with your requirements, and we can set it up for you.
  • With your minimum order of 4, you can expect to receive your books in the first week of each month, with delivery by the 10th. Please note that your first delivery may be delayed depending on the date of purchase. Feel free to email us if you're unsure. 
  • One member of your book club will receive the parcel, to then distribute copies to other members. We suggest that the distribution of next month’s book take place during the Book Club of the previous month! 
  • The selected book will be the same title that is delivered to all our adult subscribers. Our books are hand-picked and represent the best new releases and hidden gems in local and international publishing. Expect titles outside of the mass market. Instead expect excellent reading experiences with nuanced characters, compelling themes, rich plots. All of the things we want from good books. 
  • Subscribe by the first week of the month to receive the latest selection. Orders placed after the 7th will receive the following month’s book. 
  • If you need to skip, cancel or adjust your order at any point, send us an email! 

This subscription is right for your book club if: 

  • Your group struggles to decide on what to read 
  • Your group has read too many of the same kinds of books recently 
  • Staying on top of new releases is important to you 
  • Getting a hold of enough copies of one book has been difficult for your group in the past 
  • You want to take the pressure off – we decide on the book for you and provide reading notes … all you need to do is read, meet and discuss. 

WellRead helps you to experience the immeasurable joy of reading a really good book.
