Why do I love the book drop?

I’ve been receiving the book drop subscription for over a year now and I love it! I’ve received the “books for tea” and “books for bubbly” options. My current subscription is to the “Blend: bubbly/tea” and I love it. I have received many books that I hadn’t heard of before and I love discovering new books that way. I love the surprise element of it and supporting an independent bookstore.
