About the Tea Leaves and Reads Book Club
The Tea Leaves and Reads Book Club was created in July 2020 and is held online and locally, in Andover, Hampshire. Our book club titles are picked carefully from hundreds and hundreds of choices, an almost impossible task. All of our book club choices are hand-signed, available in paperback, and come with the additional option of joining an online zoom interview live with us and the Author subject to availability.
To find out more about how the Tea Leaves and Reads Book Club works and the options available, please visit our Book Club Page. For a full list of the previous Book Club titles visit our book club blog entry.
In purchasing the Book Club Box subscription you will be saving yourself almost £4 across the cost of three boxes with no hidden postage costs. In purchasing the Book Club Book Only subscription you will be saving yourself almost £3 across the cost of three purchases. However if you’d prefer to buy the books separately or just fancy the titles on an ad hoc basis, please do browse our shop as each book club choice is listed individually too.
