I received a leaflet in my Sunday paper for Worldbooks and decided to give them a try. I was in need of a new hobby, and reading seemed a stress free one. I have never joined a book clubs before so was unsure of what to expect. Being a member of the BCA (British Club Associates) reassured me a little and the sign-up offer tempted me, they gave you any six book you wanted for less than £1.00 each. Bare in mind these are hard back books and are each worth substantially more. There leaflet catalogue shows the rrp and the amount you are saving with them. Of course you need to meet some requirements to apply for this offer, notable you need agreed to purchase at least four books in the year of sign-up. If you fail to meet this agreement then your going to be charged the full price of the books you ordered at the introduction offer. By using the order form with the leaflet the ordering process was easy with free postage, & £1.00 for each of the hard back books. After this however the postage and packaging was much higher at £3.99. I generally like the idea of the book club, but Worldbooks seemed a little slow in delivery. And I guess the minimum book order will put off some people, the four books you order are full rrp and therefore you could find them cheaper at other bookshops. I also didn't like the amount of junk mail you receive from them once you have signed up. Canceling the editor’s choice each month is also a major pain as well, it seems like a scam to get you to buy more books. Overall I am happy with my full book shelf and the overall price I paid.
